FIGHT To CONTROL.
Ohio CONVENTION
Question of Indorsing Pres
ident or Senators.
TAX SPEECH WlDENS BREACH
Foraker Announces Opposition to Pro-
posal to Place Limit on Phi
vate Fortunes.

The coming State convention of Ohio
Republicans will see a fight over the
plank in the platform devoted TO Presi-
dent Roosevelt and his Administration.
1t is safe TO say that declaration for
the inheritance tax plan OF limiting pri-
waite fortunes. advanced by the Presi-
dent on Saturday. will be opposed by
both Ohio Senators and il is already
apparent that they will have strong
support for such an attitude.
Nor is such a plank as that suggested
by Governor Herrick and Wade Ellis
for the last convention, I'VE stand for
Roosevelt and everything that he
stands for" at all likely TO meet with
the Senatorial acquiescence- Senator
Dick headed off that plank last year
and the frank explanation was made
by those in control that. I'VE stand for
Roosevelt and what he stands for as
long as what he stands for is Repub-
ICan"

Same Fight on Other Lines.

Then ii was the tariff and a railroad
rate regulation policy in question. Now
il will be an agitation for the limiting
of private fortunes that the ruling body
OF the party in Ohio Will be asked to
pass upon as to whether ii is good Re
publican doctrine
Rather a number of Ohio Republicans
here regard it as socialistic doctrine.
General Grosvenor has made it his with
fervid Endorsement Other members
Of the Ohio delegation generally prefer
10 remain silent. But Senator Foraker
spoke his mind today.
Foraker Against Proposed Tax.
He was asked if the Ohio State con-
vention would be likely 10 put the prop
osition to limit fortunes with an in
heritance tax in the platform. and said:
Il cannot undertake to say what the
convention will do. but the people of
Ohio have just got through an exper-
fence with an inheritance tax. On the
face of the returns it does not appear
that they think very well Of a death
tax AS 1 understand ii. this new
proposition is one to limit private for
tunes. / do not believe that the people
of the country will approve any plan
y
There was a fight already in prospect
for the next Republican State conVen-
ton as TO whether that body would take
its position with the President or the
two Ohio Senators. Senator Foraker
has been in open opposition to the Ad-
ministration rate program. and Senator
Dick. despite his letter 20 the I,egis-
lature. has shown no great activity In
championship OF the Roosevelt bill.
Senator Foraker led the forces that
defeated the President on Statehood and
ing the Philippine tariff bill.
Saturday Speech Complexities Situation
The Presidents last speech has com
plicated this already delicate situation.
The decision of the Ohio convention as
TO whether 1t will accept the President S
invitation TO follow him into these new
fields of proposed national legislation.
as to whether Il will stand for every
thing that he stands for" will have a
national significance. The big, strong
men of the Republican party will make
stand in conventions this summer. as
they have made a stand in the Senate
this winter against ROoseveltism.
They will fight against having Roose-
veltism Endorsed as Republicanism In
the various State platforms, and on the
stump. This is their first step toward
Tecapturing control of the party in 1905
All eyes Will be on Ohio because there
Foraker. leader of the conservatives
on the Senate floor and talked of as
the Presidential candidate of a con-
servative reaction, will have his future
staked on the result.

DR., BRInCKERHOFF'S
FUTURE WORK

Members Of the medical fraternity,
both here and in Honolulu, are inter-
ested in the announcement that Sur
geon- General Wyman has appointed
DR.. Walter r. Brinckerhoff. of New
York, director of the proposed govern
ment research hospital in the Hawai-
ian islands. The latter is the first
government institution of it's kind in
the world planned on a large scale.
Congress last year appropriated $780,
coo for the hospitals, which is to have
accommodation for forty patients and
all the modern accessories for such A
place. The director will have ample
assistants and nurses. $4,000 for sala-
ries having been appropriated for the
first year. But little of this amount
will be used, because the hospital has
yet to be built. 1t viii probably be
six months before work on it will be
we'll under way. A square mile of land
on the island of MoIokai as a site for
the hospital has been granted by the
territory of Hawaii. The plans as be-
ing prepared call for two buildings.
one for men patients and the other for
women, with a water supply, gas and
QlSlflIectanC plailS, LABORATORY, store
houses, quarters for nurses and med
ical staff and an administration build
ing.
1t will be the mission of DIR. Brinck-
erhon and his associates, under Sur
geon-General Wyman, to try to ascer-
tain the origin of the dread disease,
to grow it's bacilli in test tubes and to
see if some animal cannot be inocu-
lated with the germs SO that the dis
ease can be readily studied in all it's
phases. - San Francisco Examiner,

HOW THE SAILORS
FIND THINGS OUT

It's curious how sailors aboard Uncle
Sans warships get hold of news con-
corning the movements of their re-
spective vessels. Ask a sailor when
or where his boat is going and he will
give a very vague answer. A sailor of
the battleship Oregon was asked on
Friday evening when the vessel was
to sail, it being generally understood
that she was to leave at p. m. Sat-
urday:
We'll, it's this way" he began; 1.-THE
skipper had some friends from ashore,
civilians, at lunch today. He was tell
ing the civilians when they were eat
ing that he was going to sail at 1
o'clock Saturday afternoon. Well, the
China boy, he's the steward and looks
after the shippers mess; he overhears
the skipper tell the civilians, and as
soon as he was through with the
luncheon he hurries light up to my bake
shop and he tells me what the skipper
says. So I pipes it off to the other
fellers.''

THEO. RICHARDS REPLIES
TO TREASURER CAMPBELL

Editor Advertiser: The issue raised
by Treasurer Campbell in the Star of
Saturday deserves an answer. What
the public has a right to know is wheth-
err there was fraud in the securing of
the licenses at Kona. The Treasurer
seems to want to disprove the fact, ana
if he fails (having honestly made the
effort at Kona, not in the Honolulu
newspapers) any candid person will say
that he has only one course open to him,
viz, to take the course the law pre-
scribes to revoke licenses and punish Of
tenders. The ignorance of reformers in
general or the Anti-Saloon League in
particular will not avail him. We deem
Treasurer who by his own admission
knows the law. All We ask of the
Treasurer is to administer the law.
We stated some facts in the recent
daily papers concerning fraud in Kona.
We repeat that they were facts.
Following is a letter to Treasurer
Campbell, which was sent to his office
before twelve O'Clock Saturday:
March "a.
Treasurer A. J. Campbell, Honolulu.
Dear Sir: l have your letter of
March 23d in answer to mine of the
10Th inst. / note that the names of
those who deny acknowledging sigma
lures on the petition of Sing Sing, Kai-'
naIiu, kona, the two mentioned are
Charles T. Simerson and W. f. Roy.
My informant tells me that these were
the only two he approached. Your sug-
gestion about our getting the sworn af-
fidavits is not bad one and I would
be glad to do so did ! not think that it
devolves upon your department to do so.
In regard to the license of Shibaya-
ma you take exception to my remark
that representation was made to YOU
that all the property owners had sig ned
but one. Ny informant, DR.. A. S.
Baker, states as follows:
Mr.. Campbell was informed that
namely, Miss Anna Paris There are
others,-John Smith, George Smith,
John Todd, w. j. Yates, John Atkins
/ have the fact stated likewise in agree
ment with your statement that there
was longer petition of October 21st |
of japanese names thrown out.
L am making no charge against your !
department for the issuance of that |
license but am merely restatine my |
claim made in the paper that there was |
fraud in the obtaining of it which, as
far as l know at present, does not in |
volve your office.
As to your final statement in the let
ter that We are not informed as to the |
law, / would state that no great claim
on our part is made in this particular
and we are fortunate in having officials
that do know the law. I enclose, how
ever, copy of our digest which may
you.

MIR. wITHINGToN's LETTERS.

Honolulu as a subject of attention is
as far away from most people here
abouts in interest as it is in geograp PHI
ical distance. An interesting letter
appeared recently in the Commercial
Advertiser of Honolulu, written by Mr..
Leonard Wilmington, of that city, who
is a student here at Harvard. Mar.
Wilmington says that people in this
section of the country have little
knowledge of or interest in the re-
sources of that land of sunshine. He
attributes it largely, however, to a
lack of effort on the part of the Ha-
waiian government and people to make
known the beauties of their island
paradise. He says that even the
photographs that are shown are taken
at points where and when the streets
are deserted, which is a condition
scrupulously avoided by promoters of
Eastern scenery. Mr.. Wilmington
writes in a good spirit and as all in
terested in having their homes prop
erly and attractively presented should.
