THE YELLOW DOG IN
POLITICS MUST GET OUT

lost upon him. He is not the sort of
good-mannered dog that goes down
stairs when he sees preparations being
made for kicking him down. He will
not retire. and the party managers may
find it impossible to get rid of him.
The only recourse is to scratch the
ticket
Turning to Oahu, we find the Adver-
tiser strongly denouncing certain can
didates on the Republican ticket. The
most notorious of these is George Kaea,
candidate for the Legislature, whose
published record shows that he has
been no fewer than twenty-three times
convicted of offenses in the criminal
courts. Now, a good man may commit
a crime, acting on impulse or under
the spur of necessity, but may sincere
" repent and forfeit none of his rights
and privileges as a citizen; and it
should be the aim of everyone to assist
him in rehabilitating his character and
restoring him to public usefulness in
that sphere for which his talents NAV
suit him. But when person has been
convicted more than a score of times,
it argues habitual criminality and a
disregard for law and order which
ought to disqualify him from holding
any public position. The Advertiser
is to be commended for the stand it
has taken against Kaea s candidature
The same journal takes strong ex-
ception to John w. Cathcart s candida
ture for the position of County Attor-
ney in Oahu. It's allegations against
Cathcart, who is a Republican, is that
he has acted as attorney in civil ae-
tions for persons against whom it was
his duty to proceed in criminal charges
These accusations are strenuously de-
MED by Cathcart, but the Advertiser
adduces actual records in support of
its statements. On the other hand, it
is contended that "the question is one
of legal ethics, and does not involve
Mr.. Cathcart' s integrity This may
be perfectly true, but at the same time
the ethics of an honorable profession |
are not to be overlooked.
No elector need be ashamed to
scratch his ticket when he has such |
grounds for doing it as are described |
by Governor Frear. The end of poll
tics is good governme.c.tc, and that end |,
can only be reached by electing men !
Of character and integrity. We are
for the straight ticket every time, but
every candidate on it must be !

MOTHER RICE'S
92ND BIRTHDAY

LIHUE, Kauai, October 17-Mother
Rice celebrated her ninety third birth
day last Sunday in the midst of all the
descendants who are living here on Ka-
uai. Though ninetytwo years of age,
Mrs. Rice has retained a perfectly clear
mind of the movements of the time.
The Hawaiians, to whom she has al
ways been Mother Rice, have a very
warm spot in her heart and receive
numerous evidences of her love for
them. 1t was therefore but natural
that two of the Hawaiian societies of
the place wished to show her their graf
itude and what more natural than that
it should find expression in that pecu-
liariy Hawaiian way, through the song
a number of Hawaiian ladies and
gentlemen called on her Monday morn
ing and greeted her with number of
her favorite hymns. After prayers,had
been offered up, refreshments were
served and a sociable hour spent.
One of the pleasing greetings re-
eeived by Mother Rice was from Clar-
enee Cooke, in Honolulu, who by wire
less announced that the number of her
descendants had been increased by the
arrival of another great-grandson on
her birthday.

CREW COMING FOR TIE MILL.

Manager Frank McStocker of the
Hawaii Development Company received
word by cable on Tuesday that full
crew of sawyers would leave San Fran
cisco by the steamer Enterprise, yes
terday, for HilO, says the Hawaii Her
aid. They are coming here to work
at the Hawaii Mahogany Lumber Com
pany's plant at Pahoa, being sent for
because it was found that experienced
men were needed, the japanese not be-
ing able to handle the more skilled part
of the work.
Another recent difficulty that had to
be overcome at the mill was to take
out the new saws that came with the
big plant from the Coast. They were
found not to be strong enough for the
ohia wood, which is so much harder
than that grown on the mainland, and
to cut which the saws sent here were
inadequate.
This trouble was solved by sending
to PahOa the saws that had been in
use at the lumber camp near the vol
eano, where work has been temporarily
stopped

The Hilo Tribune devotes consid-
cradle portion of its space in its last
issue to ''The Yellow Dog" and an
nounces itself as one who loves not the
party less but the good of the country
more. A portion of the article is here
given:
The first thing that the intelligent
voter must do is to make sure whether
the alleged Yellow Dog is a reality
or a DOGGY. 1t is dangerously easy to
cry "Wolf, >" and there are always vel
low journalists, looking through their
own yellow spectacles, ready to raise
the cry of "'YellOw dog" merely to
create a sensation or to excite preju-
dice against a particular party. There
has been far too much of these mud
singing tactics during the present pres
idential contest on the mainland, and
they do no good. Therefore be on
your guard against false accusations.
Having proved the truth of the Vel
low Dog cry, as, for instance, by find
ing that a Republican journal de
nounees a Republican candidate, or
that a Democratic organ condemns 4
nominee of its own party, and backs
its statements with facts that can not
be denied, the duty of every honest
elector is perfectly clear. The name
of the Yellow Dog candidate should be
scratched without the slightest hesita-
ton.
Patriotic ethics are superior to party
ethics every time. But you must be
sure that you are acting from patri-
otic motives, and not from personal
animus, CT pique, or any other unwOr
thy feeling. It is no excuse for polit
zeal apathy to say that you disapprove
of certain persons placed on the ticket,
so long as these persons have a clean
record and are intellectually and NOR
ally fitted for positions for which they
have been nominated. Personal pref
erenees and prejudiees must give way
before the ethics of the straight ticket.
But party obligations 60 no further.
When it is found that, through error,
oversight or ehieanery, an unworthy
candidates name has found its way
on to the ticket, it is the duty of every
patriot and every lover of good gov
eminent to deneunce such candidate
and use every effort to secure his de-
feat. The Yellow Dog usually has a
tough hide, and the plainest hints are

c. P. D. DANCE IS
NOT To Be A BALL

1t s to be a dance, not a ball. A
ball conveys the idea of formality, but
dance is different, or just the oppo,
site, for at a dance everybody wants
to know everyone else, and the pro-
grams are soon flied. For this reason
the entertainment of the chief petty
officers of the Pacific fleet will be a
dance, not a ball. 1t is to be given
at the Young Hotel tomorrow even
ing. A committee of fifty persons will
see that every C. P. o. there and every
young lady have full programs even to
the extra-extras.
Final plans were made Saturday af-
ternoOn at a meeting of the above COM
mittee, at which time everyone agreed
to get in Tuesday night and see what
good fellows they could be. And over
half of this committee is of the fair
sex, too.
g. W. R, King, as chairman, will be
in charge. while James Lynch and E.
NJ Cheatham will each have charge of
a floor. The latter hope to complete
arrangements whereby dances viii be
started simultaneously in the two floors
and thus do away with one of the great
drawbacks to dancing in both pavil-
ions.

irons are the patronesses: Mrs. H. H.
