the corporations Jand corrupt polite
ians in check.
Public Sentiment Awake.
In his lecture tours over the coun-
try Senator La Toilette finds the pub
lie conscience thoroughly awakened
on political issues. The Roosevelt ad-
ministration in which the trusts and
corporations have been brought to
trial and their wings clipped with rigid
restrictions, has given the people
taste of political justice and Roosevelt
is the choice everywhere, for presi-
dent.
Everywhere he finds the people
thoroughly alive to the necessity of
more vigorous popular government,
more power for the people and less for
the bosses, more honesty in office and
less spoils seeking.
"The promise to give a man post
office appointment for his political IN
fluence is Just as much case of brib-
cry as though that man were paid
$1,000 or 100000 for his influence"
said Senator La Toilette today THE
principle is the same. The crime is
Just as apparent. The political integ-
rity of the country is just as much
debauched by the one promise as the
other"
Last Lecture of the Series.
Senator La Follette's lecture is the
last of the excellent course of lectures
and attractions brought to the city
during the last four months by Per-
dleton Lecture bureau.
The lecture will be given at the
First Christian church tonight because
of the closing of Frazer theater on
April /. The doors will open at and
the lecture will begin promptly at
o'clock. The seat sales have been
heavy today and it is evident that a
large audience will greet the senator,
although many people are out of the
city. The price of seats in the gal
lery has been fixed at so cents.

Prosecutor Boone of this coun-

tion against Engineer Galnoure,
who had. charge of the B. & o.
train which was wrecked in Mo-
vember last, killing 81 persons,
this morning said Galnoure was
acquitted, because the rules of
the company were never intend
ed to be enforced. They were
made so If obeyed to the letter
no train could run over 10 miles
) an hour. Further" he said,
: "the defense proved the road
; is run partly by rule and partly
} by guesswork, so when. wrecks
occur the blame can be thrown

Fred. Kiley hasn't got that saloon
license yet. In spite of the fact that
his application for a restaurant IL
Cense was by mistake advertised as
an application for a saloon license,
the License Board, on advice of the
Attorney General, yesterday after
noon decided that before the applica-
ton for a saloon could be considered,
it must be again advertised for three
weeks.
Pang Lum Now, who was refused
a license for a saloon within the fish
market district, asked the Board if it
would grant him license for sa-
loon on Maunakea above Hotel street.
Pang Kang Chez, whose fishmarket
application was also turned down,
made a similar inquiry in regard to
a license for a saloon at the corner
of King and Hotel streets. The
Board declined to answer these in
quiries before formal applications had
been made. An application for Ii
cense for the Cobweb saloon at the
corner of Queen and Alakea streets
was refused and the Board declined
to consent to rehearing of the case.
The following regulations for sa-
looms were adopted and will be print
ed and furnished to each licensee:
/. All licensed premises shall be
kept in good sanitary condition.
2. All rooms, stalls and similar
structures within licensed saloon
premises (other than lavatories or
toilet rooms and one store room)
shall open into and upon one and the
SAME room and none other, and shall
not have doors, screens or other OBJ
straNions to a clear and unimpeded
view of the interior thereof.
3. A licensee shall within seven
days after receiving notice in writing
+. ON the Board remove such parti-
tons contained within the licensed

MEMBERS Of BOARDS
Ce-President And Five
Trustees OF Queens
Hospital

Acting Governor Atkinson has
made a number of appointments to
fill vacancies on the various Boards
and Commissions. Yesterday after
noon he signed the commission of
William Dwight Baldwin, M. D., as a
member of the Board of Health, to
FIJI the vacancy caused by the expira-
ton of the term of DR.. J. r. Judd.
William l.. Whitney has been select
ed to be a trustee of the Hawaiian
Library, vice Frank S. Dodge, re-
signed.
The commissions of a vice presi-
dent and five other trustees of the
Queens Hospital were also signed,
thus completing the corporation. The
Governor is eX officio president, and
the appointments made yesterday by
the Acting Governor are as follows:
E. Faxon Bishop, vice president;
John Waterhouse,
James F. Morgan.
James S. McCandless,
Geo. w. Smith,
VIM. II. McInerny.
There are still three vacancies on
the Board of Education to be filled.
Who two of the appointees will be is
a matter of conjecture, but it is very
probable that the other commission
will go to Joseph Garden. He has
been strongly recommended for the
position, and, being a contractor, his
knowledge of building and of build
ing materials, etc, would make him
valuable member of the Board.
