FINANCIAL yAGAR1Es

Comparatively little attention has
thus far been paid to the to
the business community involved in
some of Mr.. Bryan's recent financial
proposals. Even III it be admitted
that the free coinage of silver is a
dead issue, although Mr.. Bryan has
never categorically admitted that he
was wrong, there are plenty declara-
cratic platforms and in the utteran-
ces of MI. Bryan which are calculat-
ed to cause alarm.
The Democratic platform of this
year did not follow the usual prac-
tice of .reaffirming" previous nat
ional platforms, probably for the
reason that the platform upon which
Judge Parker stood four years ago
was too conservative to please Mr..
Bryan and his followers. There were
several significant declarations in
the last preceding Bryan platform
that of 190O-which were not cal
culated to inspire confidence in the
sOundness of Mr.. Bryan's views on
financial subjects. One of these was
the demand for 1.-The retirement of
national bank notes as fast as gov
eminent paper or silver certificates
can be substituted for them" In this
declaration it is to be observed Mr..
Bryan would not even be satisfied
to have gold certificates circulate by
the side of silver certificates, even
though based, as such certificates
are, upon full deposits Of coin and
bullion. So indicative apparently
was Mr.. Bryan ut this time towards
the gold standard that he forgot to
preserve the standard impartially be-
tween the two metals which was one
OF the masks of the international
sbimetalists. Cursed gold" which
In the previous campaign he declar-
ed, had slain its tens of thousands,
he would not admit was a peer of
silver and the greenbacks.
Even this amazing piece of folly
might be excused If the platform
adopted this year at Denver had en-
d0rsed any sound principle Of A.
nance. Unfortunately for those who
might now be disposed to overlook
MI. Bryan's past errors, the Denver
platform perpetrates a new threat
against the existing currency sys-
tenn by declaring that I'VE believe
that insofar as the needs OF COM
mere require an emergency cur
rency, such currency should be is
sued and controlled by the Federal
Government" This declaration is
y declared by so conservative and in
dependent a journal as The Boston
Transcript to be "only slightly veil
of Ei~rredeemable greenbacks." The
Transcript adds that this declaration
might easily become a real menace
Il the country should be compelled
to look to Mr.. Bryan, o. a secretary
of the treasury appointed by him,
for. protection
MI. Bryan has sought to evade the
responsibility for revolutionary de-
c1arations Of this sort by declaring
thai. he would obey existing law and
haasssdded sarcastieally. that the Re-
spGuplis:ans have Had some dozen

has made his best hits of the cam

The union labor vote, it has been
discovered, is not owned and con-
trolled by Gompers. He has been
receiving some hard jolts of late
from individual labor leaders, who
have indicated their %displeasure at
his way of assuring the democrats
that the laboring men of the country
are going to support Mr.. Bryan.
Many Of these leaders have felt their
standing and intelligence and that
OF their men have been assailed in a
manner that is a reflection on the
independence of the laboring man.

The political situation in Dawson
county from a republican standpoint
is exceedingly quiet, and it doesn't
appear that there is going to be any
excitement for the rest of the cam
paign. If Judge Taft hadn't come
to town and delivered an address
during corn palace week there would
have been nothing to have stirred
up the voters. Perhaps the cam
paign committee considers that
enough. The democrats have made
of a display than have the re-
publicans.

In a review of the Greater Norris
and Rowe circus, museum, menage.
rie, hippodrome and congress- of
nations which will exhibit in this
city afternoon and night, Friday
August 7th. Colgate Baker, the
dramatic critic on the San Francisco
Chronicle, of January 18th wrote:
"The Greater Norris and Rowe cir.
Gus and hippodrome, began an in
definite engagement at the Audi
torium yesterday, and we're greeted
by large and enthusiastic audiences.
The development of the Norris and
Rowe circus has been progressing
rapidly, and the variety and scope
of the programme offered yester.
day, could not be surpassed by any
circus company in this country.
There are fifteen display feature
acts exhibited, as we'll as scores of
others, almost as entertaining and
of no less importance. The mena.
gerie has been enlarged to forinid-
able proportions. while the costum-
ing and ring management is first
class in every respect. So many
good things are presented that
many visits will be required to the
big circus, if one wishes to see all
that is being presented. They are
today in the very fore rank of the
big circuses of this country. 1t is
doubtful if a better performance of
the kind has ever been seen in San
Francisco"
During the run of the show in
San Francisco, which extended over
a period of thirty days 279,673 per-
sons paid admission to see it. Their
success in San Francisco was the
most signal one ever achieved in
the metropolis of the west. The en-.
tire press of the city we're in accord,
in proclaming it to be the best cir
Gus ever given in the city.

built for a tug and hence has great
power. She would be exceedingly ser
viceable with any fleet on any cruise
The marine guard at Midway was
ordered there in April 1904, and was
sent out there very soon after. II has
been maintained at a strength OF TWEEN
~ men ever since, the men on duty
there being relieved at intervals OF
service. The guard at present is I'M
der command of Lieut.. Nevin, who
attained considerable notoriety by the
efforts he made TO be permitted to
take his wife there with him on a
naval vessel. His first orders were 10
proceed to Honolulu from San Fran
cisco on naval vessel. He secured
permission to come here on a trans
port so that his wife could accom-
pany him. They arrived here. and she
remained here while he went on TO
Midway on the IroQuois. Finally she
secured passage TO Midway on the
Iwalani or one of the other vessels of
the Inter-Island company which was
chartered by the cable company 10
take supplies there. AS her husbands
term OF service would expire before
another opportunity for her to leave
might present itself, she returned from
Midway on the last voyage of the
Flaurence Ward.
The marine guard at Midway has a
rather formidable armament for post
that mounts no larger number of men.
In addition to their rifles, the guard
mans two six-pounders, rapid fire
guns. and two Armstrong ~ inch guns.
These are English guns and very
formidable weapons. These guns were
left there by the New Orleans in 1904.
She was one of Admiral Evans fleet
that visited Honolulu four years ago.
She was an English built war vessel.
bought at the time of the Spanish war
and armed with British make of guns.
These particular ones were left at
Midway at the same time that two
were left here at a time when it was
proposed TO. change the armament Of
the New Orleans to conform to other
vessels of her type.
In connection with this movement in
the naval department, the Alameda on
her last voyage brought to Honolulu
eighty-five cases of the newest pat
tern of the Springfield rifle with which
the army is now armed. Each case
contains twelve rifles so that this
makes about 1000 rifles. a much larger
than there are Of soldiers here.
H P. Wood, on his return from the
mainland the other day expressed the
belief that it would not be long before
there would be a whole regiment at
