August 9, 1907.

An afternoon paper contains the fol-
lowing monograph by P. C. Jones on
the question of suspending the coast
wise shipping law for the sake of pro-
viding needed transportation:
regret exceedingly that two press,
ing engagements prevented me from
being present at the meeting yester-
day to hear the addresses by Messrs.
Thurston and NcCandless and the re,
ply OF Secretary Straus. l noted the
earnest pleading of Mr.. McCandless TO
have the restrictions removed in order
that our people and tourists might
travel on foreign vessels between here
and the mainland. I wish to present
the other side of this question, which
will call the patriotic side:
Our papers and our people have been
urging for the last few years the neces-
sity of Americanizing these islands,
and our planters have expended hun
dreds of thousands of dollars for this
object, by introducing a class of labor
ers who could be Americanized, and
are willing to continue this for that
purpose. The local government has
not assisted in this work by any finan-
cial help.
Now our Promotion Committee cries
out to have these restrictions removed
so that people can travel on vessels
under foreign flags. Is this good Amer
icanism? I should say not.
American steamers are now strug-
Cling along, trying to compete with
other nations, more favored by their
governments than the United States
Government, and some of our Ameri-
can lines have been forced to withdraw
their ships after losing millions of dol
lars in their efforts TO keep the Ameri.
can flag afloat.
The Southern Pacific Railway Co.
expended last year 100000 in adver-
Using these islands, hoping to draw the
tourist travel this way, and proposes
to spend double that sum during the
present year. Is If fair to treat this
company by urging our Government to
remove the present restrictions and al
low English and Japanese steamers to
come in and reap the benefit, these
foreign vessels being subsidized by
their respective governments?
We read in the papers that both the
English and japanese boats are to be
placed on the routes, boats capable
of making twenty knots an hour-the
English boats from Australia to VAN
couver, and the japanese boats from
the Orient to San Francisco-the for
mer running direct and not stoppins
at the islands, while the latter will
make this a stopping port. Now, sup
pose the restrictions are removed, I
venture to assert that every English
boat will stop here and get a large
trade in passengers by so doing, while
our people will be sure to patronize the

BEST NINETEEN
RIFLE SHOTS

1t is a pity that Col. Johnson, as
Hawaiian rifle team for the national
contest, as the first marksman in the
n. G. H. proved in open competition.
There are nineteen qualified for the
team of twelve, so that with the
colonel left out there is a margin of
six men to assure the full contingent.
Whether or not this is ample remains
to be seen. 1t is to be hoped, though,
that those who can not go are not
chiefly from the top of the list in or
der of qualification.
The Territory ought to have the best
possible team, and TO that end all
public and private influence and means
available should be devoted.
The official list of the marksmen
qualified, according TO grade of skill,
appears IN the document copied be-
low:

JAPANESE NOT DECEICED.

1t is noticeable that the more close

Japan now IN this country study the
navy yards, the battleships and the
land as well as the naval defenses OF
the United States. the more emphatic
are their protestations of the peace

CRUSHED UNDER A
STEAM ROLLER

Charlie Murray, a little seven-year-
old boy, a half-white, met with hor-
rible death Friday morning, being
crushed beneath the heavy wheels of a
steam roller at work on Liliha street,
the accident occurring about half-past
ten o'clock. The little fellow, in COM
pany with 4 little girl somewhat older,
was amusing himself by riding on the
back of the roller, which was ponder.
ously moving back and forth crushing
some new road work into smoothness.
Fireman KAPPA was in charge of the
roller at the time, and was where he
could not see the children. He started
the machine TO back, whereupon the
little girl jumped off and ran out OF
the road, turning just in time to see
her companion also jump, stumble and
then be caught, head first, beneath the
slowly turning side wheel.
Her scream and the feel of something
beneath the machine notified the
driver of the accident and he stopped
the great machine. Hasty examination
showed that the wheel had passed half
over the little body, smashing in the
skull like an egg shell and crushing
one arm to pulp. To get the machine
of, It had to be run right over the
rest of the body, fattening it out ter
ribly. The little girl, who witnessed
the whole affair, went into Mysteries,
and at the time the police, in the per,
sons OF Sheriff Iaukea, Chief Taylor
and Officer Reeves, arrived, was I'M
able to talk intelligently.
At the inquest last night 1t was
shown that the drivers of the roller had
warned the children away
from danger, this being corroborated
by the testimony of the little girl, who
stated that she and others had been
driven away and scolded that very
morning. The evidence was clear and
a verdict of accidental death was re-
turned.
On the jury were D. NJ Kupihea, Jos.
Konoho, George Wright, G. s. Mokuahi,
Paahana and Charles Pao.

some OF the contents OF The Referee.
Commissioner G. A. Davis issued ths

INDIANA WILL BE
REGULAR BOAT

1t has been definitely decided by the
local and other hackers of the char
terers of the S. S. Indiana to put her
permanently on the run between this
port and Vancouver in the passenger
service. 1t is expected that there will
at all times be a large number OF
Japanese ready to sail and IN addition
it is expected to work up a good busi-
ness in flrst-class passengers. With
the boats at present on the Australian
run from Vancouver always booked
full of through passengers 1t is thought
that there Is room for passenger
service between this and the northern
ports the same as carried on by the
Alameda between Honolulu and San
Francisco.
This winter it is expected that the
tourist travel from the Canadian
Northwest to Honolulu will be extern
sive and the Indiana hopes to come in
for a good share of this trade. thus es-
tablishing herself more in favor with
the business people of Hawaii than IL
she were to carry laborers out of the
country as her sole business and bring
back nothing in return.
On her first trip out the number OF
Japanese actually carried on the In
diana was three hundred and six. and
it is figured from this that the loss to
the charterers on the trip cannot be
less than four thousand dollars. This
fact has not discouraged the charterers
in the least, their determination to put
the boat on the run permanently be-
ing made in fact after 1t was known
that the first trip was to be a failure.
Those back of the whole scheme are
not Japanese altogether. The princi-
pal hackers of the enterprise are white
capitalists, one of them generally sup
posed to be in the arrangement being
Captain Barneson, the principal owner
of the vessel.

FOUND QUEENS DAcHsHUND.

Prince Henry, consort of Queen Will
helmina OF the Netherlands. distin-
guished himself the other day in the
eyes of his royal helpmeet's subjects
by recovering her favorite dachshund,
which she had lost while walking in a
pine forest near one of her residences.
The story of this feat is thus told by
an admiring correspondent: THE
queen was exceedingly sorry, for she
was much attached to this particular
dog. Prince Henry therefore deter
mined to go out himself to look for
the missing favorite. He went at once
TO the forester's house in the woods
and sat up all night until the first
streak Of dawn, when he began search
ing the forest. To his great delight he
was rewarded by finding Paulinchen"

REED AFTER
FRENCH'S SCALP
Opponent of Present Con-
gresham Well Known
Irrigation Manager

WALLACE, Aug. lift I can get
the nomination for congressman and
get it honestly and like d man I want
it. But am not going to go down
into a cesspool to get it."
This was the declaration of Major
Frank r. Reed of Miner, who recent
ly announced his candidacy for con-
gress to succeed Burton L. French, the
present incumbent, says the Times.
Major Reed arrived in Wallace yester-
day and leaves in the morning for
Butte. He is land commissioner for
Water company.
My position has been somewhat
misstated," continued Major Reed. 81
am not out campaigning. My mission
is to inform the people of the big rec
lamation work we are doing, and that
on october 1, 10000 acres of land will
be open for entry.
"A lot of my friends nave urged me
to make the race for congressman. If
/ can get it in the right way l want
it. / do not believe in the dirty mud
singing, and do not intend to do any
of it. / have nothing to say against
Congressman French.
"Of course l do OF expecx them to
bring the nomination to- me ana crown
me, as it were. But / am not going
to mix up in any abuse"
Major Reed is an old line republican,
but when asked about the last legisla-
ture, said:
well, 1 do not exactly approve Of
some of the things that the legislature
did. 1 believe the party has some les
sons to learn, but / believe in fighting
these things out in the party"
In speaking of the reclamation work
of his company, Major Reed contin-
ued:
There are two companies with just
the Snake river reparating the two
projects. Our company is recla'ming
10000 acres of land on the north side.
OF this 10000 acres have alreacy been
sold and the drawings for the other
10000 will be on october 1, at the new
town of Jerome. We expect to have
5000 people there at that time.
"The work is under the Carey act.
The land is sold for $3.50 an acre,
of which $35 is for the water righ- ana
so cents goes to the state for the land.
At the time of the entry $3.25 must
be paid in cash, with the next payment

Austrian Emperor's Birthday.

VIENNA, Aug. 17,--Vienna is pre-
pairing for the customary celebration
tomorrow in honor of the seventy
seventh birthday of Emperor Francis
Joseph. The venerable emperor has
spent the greater part of the summer
at Ischcl, which for years has been
his favorite retreat Much of his time
is spent in hunting.
That the aged monarch should still
be able to undertake so arduous a
sport, and above all keenly to enjoy
It for days at time. speaks volumes
for the marvellous manner in which he
has retained at nearly four score the
the vigor and elasticity of youth.
