CMan Special to The Advertiser.)

(Man Special to The Advertiser)
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 20.-The
proper authority has been given in the
War and Navy Departments for the use
of the $4,000 appropriation by Congress
at its last session to make the filling
near the navy yard at Honolulu. Chief
of Engineers Mckenzie, of the army,
and Admiral Endicott, of the Bureau OF
ment, are to have a further consulta-
ton on the matter, but there seems
now to be nothing in the way of the
work
Plans by Captain Slattery for this
work are already on file here and con-
template filling in the plat near the
naval reservation, and also digging out
the silt that has filled in the channel
to an appreciable extent The War
Department decides that the unexpend-
ed balance of the appropriation for
dredging the harbor can be used in
widening the channel along that por-
tion of the harbor.

instructions from the Government
about the disbursement of $4,000 ap-
for the expenses of the Ha-
waiian Legislature is now before the
of the Treasury. Mr.. Trace

to those expenditures is expected within

make it appear that the administration
is not countenancing annexation. How
ever, it is not to be doubted that the
confidential reports Secretary Taft has
made have disheartened the President
much and that the prospects of pro-
tectorate or something very close to an
nexation have grown greatly during the
past week.
With a session of Congress less than
two months away the gossip about the
work has already begun. The schemes
for general legislation are being
broached. Every politician OF import
ance who comes to town to see the
President has his views.
Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin,
brought the first prominent suggestion
a few days ago, when he was here by
invitation of the President, to discuss
Cuba and other current topics of in
terest to the President. He sounded an
alarm about the currency and declared
that reform legislation at the coming
session was imperative to ward off the
danger of serious financial panic. Mr..
Spooner's word goes a long way, be-
cause of his high standing in Congress
and his influential position on the
finance committee, which deals with
that kind of bills. The Pres dent is
going to recommend such legislation in
his annual messag ge, according to the
reports, and Comptroller Of the Curren
cy Ridgeley has gone to St. Louis to
attend the bankers convention and also
to arouse some sentiment in that body
for the desired legtslat on.
The objection that meets all propo-
sitions for general Legislation at the
session is it's breyity. Con-
gress meets early in December, but 1t
rarely accomplished much PRIOR to the
and when the holidays are
over there remain but two months of
the life of the Congress. Practically

Nv Dear Boys: On Tuesday next
you viii again be called upon to ex
ercise your right of franchise at the
| ballot box There have been unusua
facilities in this direction during the
last FIVE years In 1902 you elected 3
Delegate to Congress and a Territoria
Legislature; in 1908 you elected Coun
ty officers; in 1904, again, a Delegate
and Legislature; in 1905 the present
county officials; and this year you are
called upon to choose Delegate to
Congress, Territorial Legislature and
also the officers who are to manage the
affairs of the County of Oahu for the
next two years.
1t is difficult to determine which is
the most important of the three elec-
tiOnS. In the choice of a Delegate you
need man competent to direct and
influence thought and action towards
this small and remote section of the
United States. He must be a worker.
In the Legislature you need men who
can amend or abolish bad laws, frame
and nasc wise ones. Whatever is done
in the Legislature is closely watched
in Washington, so that you should
guard against the election of radical
and erratic fanatics who may thought
lessly bring opprobrium upon the Ter
ritory and check it's material and polit-
zeal advancement. For the manage
ment of your county affairs, you need
the strong and upright candidates. Men
VINO have made a success of their own
business, and whose records are clean
are the safest to entrust with the man
agement of your roads, the lighting
of your city and the protection of your
lives, homes and property.
Because these last come more to your
attention, and because they are pub
licly discussed by your county officials
every week, is probably the reason why
greater interest is taken this year in
the county election than in the selec
tion of Delegate and a Legislature.
county officers are responsible for the
expenditure of large sums of money
for your immediate benefit. You want
that money spent to the best advan-.
tage, economically and effectively, and
YOU need honest men to handle it. You
have no use for grafters, spendthrifts
or spoilsmen. You want no looting of
the county treasury, no false auditing
You do not want to pay more of yoar
money for mules, wagons, picks, shovels,
rent, light, stationery, horses, buggies
and automobiles than these articles can
be bought for in competition in the city
markets. You want officials who are
fearless enough to expose wrongdoing
and honest enough not to practice it.
There has been one very remarkable
popularity during the political cam
paign that is just closing, and that is
the manner in which the Republican
candidates have ignored the platform
framed by their party at their con-
vention held in Wailuku, and endorsed
in Honolulu. 1t looks as if they did
not intend to live up to it. or were
of it. This is bad position
for any candidate to take. 1t makes

Class Was Twice Ousted From
Chief CIerkship by Supt.
Darlington.

Republican Review.
H. A. Gass of this city, Demo-
cratic nominee for state superin-
tendent of public schools, has the
rather doubtful distinction of
having been twice removed from
the position of assistant superin-
tendent, or chief clerk as the posi-
ton is officially designated.
The removing, too, was done by
q Democratic superintendent.
The official records show that
whcn,L. j. Hall, of Richmond, left
the position of chief clerk, on Sept.
1, 1908, Gass, who had been serv-
ing as one of the department
clerks, was promoted to the place.
He served as chief clerk, at a
salary of St66. 65 a month until
August 1, 1904, when he was re-
duced to a c~lerkship with a salary
of only 500, and the chief clerk
ship given to r. H. Emerson of
Columbia.
Mr.. Emerson served till the
end of December, 1905, when Gass
was again promoted to the chief
clerkship.
This time he lasted only a month
being replaced by L. j. Hall who
was called back to the city to
again fill the place.
Hall served until the end of June
of the present year when he was
superseded by w. j. Darlington,
a son of the superintendent.
The official records show also
that Gass was let out all together
during June, July and August of
1905, the place being given to Mr..
Carrington's SON..
