but not angrily.

few inches from the chllds face.

asked BERTHE, in quite a different
voice.
Faradeane leaned against the gate,
and looked on with an absent air of
preoccupation.

Let me look at the child" he said
in his low, musical voice.
The woman looked up at him for an
instant with the mothers searching
glance; then, reading something in
his eyes that treasured her, threw the
shawl off the child's face and turned
it towards him.
1t was a poor, thin little mite,

Faradeane took it from her.

MERCHANTS FIGHT FOR
ANTI DEAD-BEAT Law
THE ASSOCIATION BUTTS
TO ENDEAVoR TO PRESERVE ALLOWING GARNIsII-
NENT OF THE WAGES ENPLoYEEs-wHY THE
MERCHANTS FIGHT

The Merchants Association has de-
cided to get into the Harbottle gar
nishee case and has retained A. G. NJ.
Robertson as special counsel to assist
the attorney general in the fight to sus-
tain the law. The association, as one
member puts it, wants to preserve the
law as protection against dead-beats
in government offices, of which some
members of the association claim to
have located quite a few. The Har-
bottle case is a proceeding TO declare
the new government employees liability
act unconstitutional. The act allows
debtors to garnishee the wages of gov
ernment employees to the extent of 20
per cent. thereof every month, and it
has been made considerable use of in
collecting debts in the Capitol and else
where. Harbottle was being held up
month after month on a big garnishee,
and Judge Weaver recently started to
knock out the law for him, declaring
it unconstitutional.
The Merchants Association took up
the matter and decided that it would
make a special effort to have the law
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-08-08

upheld. Honolulu, in spite of some re-
form in the way of establishing cash
business methods, is still essentially a
credit community in a retail way, busi-
ness being done on a credit basis gem
orally. In the course of their deal
ings with employees of the government,
the merchants say, they have found
some who are dangerously near to the
dead beat class, hence they had law
passed giving them power to garnishee
the auditor and get twenty-five per
cent. of the sum due any government
beneficiary. The law is not very po-
pular in the auditors office, where it
has caused a lot of extra work keeping
track of garnishees, but it made a hit
with the merchants.
"Of course all the government en-
ployes are not dead BEATS" said a, mem
Der of the association, "but there are
enough to make it worth while for the
association to spend something to have
the law preserved"
Robertson had a consultation with
Attorney General Peters on the subject
yesterday.

ROBINSON SAYS HE HAS ACTED
HONORABLY AND HAS MOTH
ING MORE TO SAY.

81 have done and said all that an
honorable man could do and say
perhaps more than many men would
have DONE" said Judge Robinson this
morning, "to correct a misunderstand-
ing growing out of a misconstruction
of my intended meaning in my letter
to Senator Perkins. L have no more
to say about the matter"
The above was all Judge Robinso
had to say this morning in comment
upon the Portuguese meeting of last
night, and the incident ds supposed to
be closed, among the Portu-
guese, who appear to be having more
lively discussions over it, many OF
them deprecating the action the meet
ing took.

MAY NOT GUST
SHERIFF cox
CARTER NOT DISPOSED TO ACT
UNLESS MORE DOUBLE OFFICE
HOLDING ARISES.

Governor Carter has about decided
to rest in the matter of the legality of
such elections as those of Cox as sher-
iff and Fernandez supervisor on Ha-
wall, while they were members Of the
legislature and to take no action un-
less there is a disposition to repeat
such nominations,
IF there are to be no more that Is
the end of the matter" the governor
said. But if on the other hand more
men are to run for office under such
conditions, it would be better to have
a legal test of the matter at once.
The time when this can be done with
the least harm is at the end of the
officers terms. I have given warning
and that is about all there is to do as
yet"

Portuguese at the Orpheum there seems
to be almost a unanimous opinion a.
gainst the action taken by the meeting
last evening in adopting the resolutions

Nearly all unite in believing that the

Friends of Norman Watkins who has

supervisor from the Fourth District.
Watkins would make a strong candi-

his fitness for the office.
Aside from having a number of per-

Watkins is especially strong it is un-

leave of absence which is quite likely
to end in resignation altogether.
The news that Atkinson may step
out will arouse lot OF interest In the
question of his successor. Frequent
necessary absences of the governor
have emphasized the Importance of the
secretaryship by showing that it
means a governorship a good deal of
the time. The appointment lies with
Roosevelt, but it is generally under
stood that the selection will practical

cussions of the cases, there was con-
siderable tendency to criticize Smiths
management Of the cases, which ne
defended by appointment.
1t was argued that his action in
writing a letter expressing the opinion
that the men were guilty and ought &"
be hanged, was unprofessional. and
the Bar Association took the matter up
and named a committee of investiga-
ton. At the time. there was talk Of
expelling Smith from the association
if he failed to explain his stand to the
satisfaction of the bar.
The committee will hold a final
meeting some time this week, after
which President Stanley will cali

Secretary A. L. c. Atkinson is about
to leave for the East, and it is re-
ported that his trip means that he
will probably resign as secretary
within a couple of months, thus break
ing up the supposed political combina-
tion by which he has been credited
with being in the line of succession for
the governorship. Atkinson may leave
on the Korea next week, and will go
to New York.
The secretary has not told his plans,
but it is reported that he resembles
Palmer Woods in that a business op-
ening in Cuba is attracting him away
from here. The deal, it is said, is not
closed and may not be, in which case
Atkinson will return here and resume

Heavy damage to the cotton crop
in all sections of Southern Missis-
sippi, Louisiana and Alabama is
reported as result of the storm.
Probably no other part of the cot
ton producing country has suffered
SO severely as the Delta counties of
Mississippi, the greater injury aris-
ing from the fact that in the alluvial
tracts of the Mississippi the plant
grows with a luxuriance unknown
in other places. When the storm
occurred the cotton in the delta
had reached its full development.
The average height Of the plants
was about FIVE feet, in many places
being as great as eight feet, or even
more. The cotton was heavily
branehed, and the branches loaded
with bolls, either open or ready to
burst. The Delta planters expect
a crop of a bale to the acre. Cot
ton growers will know that sort Of
growth is required to produce this.
The fields we're In exactly the right
condition for picking, and yet the
work of gathering the crop was
barely commenced. It may be said
to have been standing practically
untouched in the fields.
With the cotton in this condition
1t is hard to imagine a more disas-
trous occurrence than the storm of
last week. The tremendous wind
dashed the rank growth together in
an inextricable tanglement, max
ing whole fields All iinpenetrable
jungle, stripping the heavy green
bolls, and tearing the cotton out Of
those already open. The torrential
rain beat out the lint in vast guam
titles, and after the storm the con-
tinual wet weather is causing the
seed to sprout in the bolls. Even
one not familiar with cotton may
readily understand the effect of
such conditions as these, and the
ample justification of the gloom and
|despondency Of delta planters.
