Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune
Hopkinsvil1e, KY, April 6.-The re
sumption of wholesale plant destruc-
ton through the dark tobacco district
of Kentucky and Tennessee by night
riders has again thrown that section
into a state of excitement. The night
riders, acting always under cover OF
the darkness and in a most stealthy
manner, have recently ruined dozens
of plant-beds belonging to those farm
ers who have refused to join the
Planters Protectice Association, while
in some instances plant-beds belonging
to association members have also been
devastated Last year the destruction
of plant-beds was accomplished by
scraping the beds with hoes, but this
time the marauders used grass seed
salt to accomplish their end. Grass
seeds germinate much more quickly
and grow faster and more Importantly
and luxuriantIy than tobacco plants,
and soon choke out the plants, thus
destroying the prospects for crop.
Salt kills the plants in short order
In Tennessee bill was recently intro
lduced before the legislature which
makes it a felony to destroy tobacco
Iplant beds or otherwise interfere with
Ia farmers growing crops. Up to this
time the worst that could be made out

stock lists will disclose the fact that
the planters are numbered by the thou
sand. 1t is not unlikely that misrep-
reservations on the point have been
made to Mr.. Higgins. The chances are
that many of the people he meets in
the streets are "planters.
Well! Mr.. Higgins, we don't expect
to be state for some time yet, but
our voters are more fitted for state
hood than many of the communities
on the mainland. We have been study
ing the ballot for almost fifty years
and know it when we see it every
time and fully understand its power.
But we have not yet learned how to
defraud the people of their choice as
is too frequently the case on the main
land. Must that be learned, too, be-
fore we are really Amerieanized?

HONEST MEDICINE
TRY DIR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS
FOR STOMACH TROUBLE.
Convincing Evidence Supported by
Guarantee That Must Convince
The Most Skeptical.

Dr. Williams Pink Pills are doe,
tors prescription, used by an eminent
practitioner, and for nearly genera
ton known as a reliable household
remedy throughout the United States
Needless TO say, no advertised medI-
cine could retain popular favor for SO
long a period without having great
merit and it is the invaluable curative
properties of the pills that have made
them a standard remedy in every
civilized country in the world. Added
to this is the absolute guarantee that
the pills contain no harmful drug,
opiate, narcotic or stimulant. A re-
cent evidence of their efficacy is found
in the statement of Mrs n. B. Whitley,
of Boxley, Ark, who says:
"'I had suffered for a good many
years from stomach trouble. For a
long time 1 was subject to bad spells
of faintness and lack of breath accom-
panied by an indescribable feeling that
seemed to start in my stomach. When
ever I was a little rundown or over
tired, these spells would come on. They
occurred frequently but did not last
very long.
81 was confined to my bed for ten
weeks one time and the doctor pro-
nounced my trouble chronic infama-
ton of the stomach and bowels. Since
that time [ have been subject to the
fainting spells and at other times to
futtering of the heart and feeling as
though I was smothering. My general
health was very bad and l was weak
and trembling.
81 had seen DR.. Williams Pink Pills
mentioned in the newspapers and de-
cided to try them. When [ began taking
the pills [ was so rundown in strength
that I could hardly do any homework.
Now I could walk ten miles if neces-
sary. Both my husband and myself
think DR.. Williams Pink Pills the best
medicine made and wel always recon-
mend the pills to our friends"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills actually
make new blood and give strength and
tone to every part of the body. They
have cured serious disorders of the
blood and nerves, such as rheumatim,
sciatica, anaemia, nervousness, head
aches, partial paralysis, locomotor
ataxia, St. Vitus' dance and many
forms of weakness in either sex. They
are sold by all druggists or will be
sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, SO
cents per box, six boxes for $3.50, by
the DR.. Williams Medicine Company,

ATTACK ON COMMUNITY.

Editor Advertiser: In your report
of the Waialua incident in this morn
ing's P. C. Advertiser, the impression
is given that my reply to the charges
made by one of the Congressman was
on behalf and in defense of the
planters. This is wholly incorrect.
In the severe denunciation of the
lack of patriotism here, the attack was
made on the American community of
these islands and not upon the planters
as a class, and my reply was made
solely as an American citizen.

VIM. R. Castle Discusses the Remarkable Speech
of One of the Visiting Representatives on
the State of Americansm Here.

try2 But he would have found that
the singers all knew FAmerica, the
'Star Spangled Banner" as well as
other patriotic songs. Probably he has
not heard the Hawaiian band. He
finds the sugar plantations worked by
Chinese, japanese and others, but very
few Americans. The Atlantic coast of
the United States faces Europe, with
its millions of cognate and alien races.
I Naturally, they pour into America.
Who work the mines and thousand
and one other emplOyments in the East.
The laborers are Poles, Hungarians,
creeks, Italians, Slavs, all alien races.
Do you call that un-American? Those
people are as ignorant, degraded AMI
as low or lower in the scale of civiliza
ton than most of the japanese o"
Chinese you, Mr.. Higgins, have seen
here. Who are the workers in the mills
of New England? French Canadians,
all aliens, all DESTROYS of putting down
the Anglo-SaxOn. The province of
Quebec today is as hostile to English
rule as it was when Wolfe won the
heights of Abraham. I have been in
formed by managers IN many mills
in both Massachusetts, and Connecticut
that the French Canadians remain hos
tile and continue to be an alien race.
OF course, know that this statement
must be qualified.
The Pacific coast of the United
States faces Asia with its swarming
millions. The Chinese and japanese
are of necessity the immigrants to be
expected. They came and are no more
aliens than the vast majority of the
European immigrants of today. Then
came the "Sand Lot" agitation and
Dennis Kearney. 1t all sounded very
good and patriotic because the social
istic agitatOrs were voters, so they
were listened to and contrary to the
opinions and convictions of the large
majority of the American people, the
country was committed to and today
suffers for its Infamous Chinese record.
And now, what has America got for its
reward? San Francisco The name
tells the story, misgovernment, the rule
of thieves and thugs, place, the moral
condition of which is probably as low
or below that of any city in the world.
Is this American? Ought Hawaii to
be so Americanized as to become like
San Francisco, or Chicago, or the
mining states2 Is it un-American to
oppose changes and progress which will
tend that way? Is it un-American
to wonder why America does not enact
laws requiring compulsory arbitration!
Or to regard the conditions resulting
from the constant strikes, the loss of
life, damage to property, creation of
class prejudices with all their trains
of evil, as a disgrace to the country?
1t may be that Mr.. Higgins singled
out the planters, at any rate, the paper
says Mr.. Smith replied and regarded
the address as aimed at them. This is
all wrong. The attempt is constantly
made to separate the sugar planters
from the rest of the people and create
ill-teeling against them. The interests
of one class are those of all Who are
the planters, any way? Surely. they
are the owners of the plantations and

Editor Advertiser: In common with
most of the people, 1 did not have the
pleasure of hearing Congressman Hig-
gins at the HaIeiwa Hotel. so it is
quite possible there may be a miscOn,
ception as to what he said. But judg-
ing from this mornings paper he must
have been severe in his criticism of
conditions in Hawaii. I feel like thank
ing the gentleman for his warnings,
because, in the absence of standards
of comparison, and with the kind words
of most of our visitors we are quite apt
to fall into way of thinking ourselves
about right. A little shock to the feel
ings of a wise man may set him think
ing. But 1 believe that many of us
are Just as true and patriotic Amer
leans as Mr.. Higgins. My ancestors
are from New England, they fought
against the British in both wars and
many of my own generation fought to
preserve the Union forty years ago.
I was brought up to love and venerate
the United States and that love con-
tinues and will till L die. [ speak of
myself, but what is true of me, is
equally true of hundreds of others born
and educated here. They are all true
Americans, no doubt as true and as
patriotic as Congressman Higgins, and
the honorable gentleman will be will
ing and glad to say so, for I regard
his criticisms as evidence of brave
and true heart, and such a man, we
all greet and welcome to Hawaii.
But does love and veneration for,
and our recent annexation to, the land
of our ancestry deprive US of the right
to criticise that country and render
it less our duty to avoid it's mistakes
and errors2 1 think not, and in this
opinion Mr.. Higgins will also join
Ever since annexation there has been
a great cutlery about Americanizing
Hawaii. What is meant by it? l have
failed to hear or see any explanation
or exposition which will produce bene-
fetal results more or different from
those most of us have been striving
for these many years. Are American
or European settlers of cognate races
to be desired3 Well, so we have been
saying for years and many attempts
have been made to get them here. The
fact that lands are too much tied up
in the hands of a few holders is not
the only reason they won't come. We
want to see the lands cut up and dis
tributed but it can't be accomplished
in year nor even in a generation
probably. But it is coming in time.
Hawaii was as American in 1898 as it
was possible for a tropical country to
be, in view of conditions. Our laws,
schools, customs and in fact nearly
everything was American, except the
monarchy, and that was far more lib
eral and just than the real control of
those parts of the United States now
dominated by labor unions or railroads.
Mr.. Higgins says he heard only
native songs and had luaus and
things not American. He did not
hear the "Star SpangIed Banner. -
Does he not consider the fact that the
attempt was made every where to show
him the things which are of the coun-

prices showed small extension of the
advance in progress when the market
closed yesterday in the majority of
cases, but some of the most active
speculative favorites were lower.
The uncertain tendency manifested
at the outset was dissipated by buying
of st. Paul, Reading and the Harri-
man stocks on a liberal Scale. The
resultant large advances in these inn
parted a degree of strength to the en-
tire market, but the advances in the
rest of the list were small. RealiZ-
ing sales followed in Reading after it
reached 129 and its decline of IL
carried down other stocks, but prices
recovered to the best later.
Halt in Upward Trend.
The recovery carried prices slightly
above the high level of the first hour,
where it halted, and trading became
intensely dull. Bonds were steady. A
few specialties moved upward and
widely at the midday, while the rail

When the salvage crew arrived to
