quenters, defendants, witnesses and
loungers. They appeared as fair
blossoms in a patch of thistles.
The girlies were there to identify and
accuse G. Piper for having acted in
decently on Lunalilo street
Piper is light-haired youth of seem
ing sinister simplicity, about 10 years
of age, somewhat foppish in dress and,
from the evidence, horribly lazy.
His mother and father appeared and
attempted to prove an alibi, swearing
Piper was in bed up to O'Clock on the
morning, Wednesday last, when he is
alleged to have made at $3.50, one of his
exhibitions. They said it was his
habit to stay in bed until nine when
out of work.
Attorney Watson ably defended Pr

prosecuting attorney A. M. Brown
brought out the fact that Piper served
a year in the reform school three years
ago for being found Under compromis-
ing circumstances in a girls school,
Judge Andrade found him guilty and
was about to impose sentence when
Brown asked that sentence be deferred
until other charges could be tried.
There are two other charges which will
come up for trial on Monday next.
Piper is likely to get six months on
each charge. One place of his indie
cent behavior in the presence of young
children is named as Thurston avenue

Judge Andrade placed bond at 5000.
Piper, himself on the stand, denied
all allegations, and then went on to

CASE TANCLE

The fight over the pineapple tax ap-
peal cases in the Supreme Court is
not settled as yet, from what is learn
ed from the attorneys for the two
sides. Attorney General w. l.. Whit
ney holds that the courts decision
means that the growing pineapple
crops are liable to tax, and, in ac-
cordance with this idea, will ask for
a decree charging up taxes against
the pineapple corporations.
On the other hand Attorney L. A.
Thurston and the other lawyers who
are associated with him in defending
the pineapple magnates hold that I'M
der the wording of the decision the
growing crops of pineapples are ex-
empt, being under the head of per-
sOnal property in connection with the
production of pineapples. When an at
tempt is made to enter the DEGREES
there will probably be more or less
trouble, each side claiming to know
chat the intent of the Legislature II
passing the exemption act was favor,
able to it's version of the decision.

tons of the state has undertaken
campaign of SANDER against Watson.
This is backed up by an element that
stops at nothing. 1t is headed by three
of the greatest rascals the state ever
has produced: Crawford Fairbanks,
the notorious distiller and brewer of
Terre Haute; Thomas Taggart, owner
of French Lick, the worst gambling
hole upon the face of the earth and AL
bert Lie Der, who controls the Indiana
polls Brewing company. These are
three fine men to have promoting the
interests of a party and trying to con-
troll our government. Wouldn't you
like to be under their protecting
wing?
And why is every saloon man fight
ing Watson? Because he is on the re-
publican platform which has a plank
favoring county local option. BY this
the republican candidate becomes
duty bound to enlarge the franchise of
men, giving him the right to say
whether he wants the saloon or not.
The county local option lis personal
liberty controlled by law"
The speaker referred to the motto
of the Brotherhood of Railway Train
Neutrality-suspicious., Sobriety and In
dustry" He said sobriety was made
part of the motto because it was
recognized intemperance murders the
soul, and is the Devils best friend
and Gods worst enemy. He express
ed appreciation for what the railroad
company has done to fight the drink
habit among employees and also the
laws of the state which makesNit a fell
ony for an intoxicated man to operate
railroad train.

London, Oct 15.-The Bow Street
police court was crowded Tuesday
when twenty-seven suffragettes arrest
women sympathizers were present. All
wore gayly colored badges with the
words, vote for women" inscribed on
them in gold letters.
The police testimony showed that
traffic on the previous Gay had been
disorganized for four hours, and that
eight policemen had been injured dur
ing the demonstration of the suffrag-
cites.
The three leaders, Mrs. Drummond.
Mrs. Pankhurst and Miss Christabel
Pankhurst. demanded a trial by jury.
Their cases were postponed until Oc-
tober 81.
The others were ordered to give
bonds for their good behavior. with the
alternative of imprisonment of from
one to two months. All the women
elected to go to Jail.
One of the fair reformers as she was
being led away to prison called back to
the court: mo, no. you won't get any
of my money. I am glad to go to Jail
in such a noble cause. Down with
Asquith.' And then quiet reigned
again in the court room.

ROOSEVELT SURE
TAFT WILL WIN
He Shares None of the Ankle
ty Among Republican
Managers.
MAKES A PREDICTION.
PRESIDENT SAYS THAT TAFT
WILL HAVE MORE VOTES IN
ELECTORAL COLLEGE THAN HE
HAD IN 1904.

Washington, Oct. 15.-Although
there is some anxiety among republi-
can managers over local conditions in
a number of places. notable Ohio.
President Roosevelt does not share it.
He is in close touch with the situation
throughout the country and is reeciv-
ing reports daily. He is absolutely
certain as to the outcome, as positive
today that Taft will be elected by an
overwhelming vote as he was before
the Chicago convention that he would
be nominated on the first ballot.
Taft will have more votes in the
electoral college than l had in 1904"
said the president.
1t was explained at the white house
that the presidents only anxiety
about New York is concerning Hughes.
There are reasons personal to the
president why he doesn't want
Hughes plurality to fall far below
Taft's. though he does not concede for
a minute that Hughes can fail of cleo
ton. Many of the presidents closest
friends, notably William l.. Ward, Will
liam Barnes Jr, Herbert Parsons and
Timothy Woodruff bitterly opposed
Hughes denomination. They are now
supporting him. The president does
not want his friends to be charged
with the responsibility of lowering the
governors plurality. Above all, he
does not want them to appear respon-
sible for Hughes defeat, which he
considers very remote possibility.
Some of the persons to whom the
president has talked have ventured to
quote him as estimating Tafts vote
in the electoral college at 800. 1t was
said at the white house that the presi-
dent is making no numerical esti-
mates at present. He is content to
rest his reputation as a political pro-
phet on the simple statement that
Taft will have more votes in the cleo
toral college than were given to
