BRANCH OF THE ROCK ISLAND
Beuin First of Next Month and May
Finish Job in - Three
Months.

H. X Collins, of the firm of Collins
Bros, building contractors, was in Chi
cago yesterday, landing one of the
largest jobs that has recently fallen to
a local concern. 1t is for the building
of over 1870 buildings on new branch
of the Rock Island road in Arkansas.
The branch is known as the Little
Rock & Southern, its northern termi-
nus being the Arkansas capital. About
thirty miles are now built, and the re-
mainder, about 100 miles, is in course
of construction. The structures to be
erected are to constitute the entire
building equipment of the road, includ-
ing stations, homes for employees and
other houses that will be the begin
ming of new towns. The contract calls
for $50 buildings. but there will be
more than that number.
May Complete In Three Months.
II. X. Collins goes south the first of
next month to take charge of the work,
which will be done in three months,
perhaps, if the road is sufficiently com
pleted 10 handle the necessary mater

HIS WORST ENEMY
Sorry Predicament Of May or Nc
Caskrin in Exhibition OF
His Own Undoing.
ANOTHER BILL DISTRIBUTION
Which Sent Broadcast Are a Means
of Cheap Advertising of His
Eccentricity.

AS was indicated by last evening :
that at least the Christmas day might
pass without further exhibitions on the
part of Rock Islands boy mayor. Nor
is il the purpose here TO harrow the
people with extended allusion to his
second outbreak this week occurring
last night The public reception gen
orally accorded the second edition OF
handbills was perhaps the best answer
that could be given. hundreds of them
in the street and in stores and in
street cars being torn up in the face
of the peddlers without being read, and
this. notwithstanding the fact that in
some instances the extraordinary spec
tacle was presented of policemen be-
ing used as scandal mongers.
The Argus. in its reference to the
first handful. promised the public not
to discuss the tenor of another one.
and it does not propose to. For beyond
the policy of strict adherence TO its
adopted course. there is in the latest
document of this nature emanating
from the mayor of the city of Rock
Island. that which. because of it's libel
Gus character. it would be beyond the
province of a newspaper to consider.
His Own Worst Enemy.
If on the whole there is anything that
has been left unsaid by The Argus rel
alive to the qualities of irresponsible
tiles and extreme vindictiveness in
Mayor McCaskrin's official makeup,
the last circular has filled in the gap.
The boy mayor is his own worst en-
envy.
For al of which unfortunate circum-
stances The Argus sense of pity is
only deepened.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-11-04

The Independent will be missed by
quite a circle. 1t was nearly always
interesting and its style was often uni
que. In its older and better days it
commanded a much wider attention
than during the past year or so, and
always it's voice was for royalism.
Though of late assuming to be Demo-
cratic, its note was essentially that of
the royalist party. 1t was loyal to
the idea of Hawaiian sovereignty, and
its editor is likely to be always in the
class of the Unreconstructed
A few years ago the cantankerous
little daily had on its staff two very
able writer's. The late Horace Wright
and Il. S. Norrie, Englishman and
Dane, were bright writer's and both
of them consistent opponents of the
new regime that began with so, and
they lost no chances to keep alive the
notion that the Hawaiian Islands had
been stolen or taken by force as con-
quered Territory. Wright had had
large experience in journalism and had
seen better days. There came New
Years morning when he was found
dead in his editorial chair a victim of
his own hand and the paper was left
practically to Norrie.
