Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-09-10

If the knives that were drawn are not sheathed before the November election 1t is certain the republican majority of former years will be ma terially reduced but whether enough of the disgruntled ones will continue to pout. and as Joe Barbour says, raise hell, remains to be seen. 1t Is quite an undertaking to wipe out such a majority as the republican party has had In Connecticut for sev- eral years, but there are those who think 1t can be done, and that this is the year to do 1t, even though the na- tional ticket candidate may prove to be q good puller. Congressman Lilley certainly owes his friends much, for despite the most heroic efforts to defeat him he came across the line with colors flying, but whether he will be able to keep them from trailing in the mud time alone can tell. The campaign promises to be most bitterly fought, even
 though the democrats have not yet launched a candidate or platform.

The managers of the republican national campaign are working all sorts of schemes for the success of the ticket in November. That voice from the dead article, wherein the late ex-President Cleveland is made to say certain things is now believed by many people to have been manu- factured for political purposes only. A well known writer, Willis Abbott, who has studied the situation had the following to say: Personally, l have been inclined to believe the famous posthumous article attr1b- uted to Grover Cleveland as probab- ly. genuine. But into the democrat ic headquarters yesterday came an old-time and active democrat, one who was friend and supporter of Grover Cleveland and a lawyer of acumen, H. H. Childers. He held to the belief that the letter was spu- rious, certainly not more nearly authentic than the written para phrase of remarks dropped by the late ex-president on his sick-bed to some friend might be. MT Childers supported his theory, which has been advanced by many other people with whom I have talked, by careful analysis of the letter in all its de- tails"

Threatened Minnesota Town Saved, It
 Is Thought, by Steady Pour.
 Hibbing, Minn., Sept. 10--A steady rain fell here, the first in two weeks, soaking the brushwood and cuttings which have furnished the most ready fuel for the forest fires on the range. The rain, it is hoped, will end the fire terror here.
 The town of Dunbar is surrounded by fire. Many cranberry marshes have been burned and the entire crops de- stroyed
 Fires threatened half a dozen of the larger towns on the range. Hibbing fought the flames for many hours. More than thousand residents of Hibbing fought back the blaze, stamp ing out brush fires and wetting down the fields about the town. Reports now are that the town is safe.
 Similar experiences are reported from a dozen other range towns, but so far as is known there none was de stroyed. Bovey had as hard a fight as Hibbing, and the residents of Cele- raine, two miles away, had to go to their assistance.
 All business was suspended, the , school closed, and citizens after pack. ing a few valuables, ready to flee at a moments notice, fought the fires.
 At Aurora. Nashwauk, Buhl, Wrens. hall and several smaller towns and villages the same experience was re. peated.
 What reports have been received from the busy fire fighters are more optimistic The wind Is dying down, and the fires appear to be gradually burning themselves out. Great vigi. lance is still necessary. however.

"oHh New York, Sept. 10.-A strange oath was taken in the police court here when Frederick W. Scucker of Pleas antville, N. T., raised his right hand and faced Magistrate Corrigan.
 Do you swear before God not to kill yourself?" asked the magistrate.
 "I do," answered Scucker.
 "You are discharged"
 Scucker made threats to take his life, according to Samuel Alsbach, and the latter took him to the West Thirtieth street station. Later when arraigned in the court Scucker declared he had changed his mind, but Magistrate Cor rigan required an oath that he would not carry out his threat of self de struction. @

It is said that 5OO,OO0 crates

It is said that 500,000 crates is a conservative estimate of this years Cuban orange crop, which will be the largest in the history of the island. Until a few years ago thousands of crates of oranges were brought to Cuba from Florida and California every year, but for the last three seasons these shipments have become less, and will possibly cease entirely within another year. Orange cultivation in a scientific scale did not begin in Cuba until about eight or nine years ago, and may be considered in its infancy, but is progressing rapidly, and even at this early stage is now in position to supply the local markets. The
 orange business in the island is con- trolled almost entirely by Americans.

Condemnation proceedings will be
begun by the United States against
Lorrin Andrews, District Magistrate of
Hilo, to acquire a right-of-way over
his leasehold of some land belonging to
the Waiakea Sugar Company. The land
is needed for the right-of-way for a
railroad to carry rock for the Hilo
breakwater.
Andrews was offered what the United
States considered a generous price, but
he thought differently. Deeds were
sent to him for execution a few days
ago ON the basis of what the United
States was willing to give. Captain
Orwell yesterday received letter from
Andrews declining to accept the offer
of the government or execute the deeds.
Condemnation proceedings will follow.
The papers were prepared yesterday
in the office of United States District
Attorney Breckons, and were sent to
Captain Orwell for verifcation of the
description of the land wanted, and will
be filed in court this morning.
In the petition for condemnation 1t
is stated that the value of the An
drew s interest in the land required by
the government is $500. Andrews wants
thousand.
The land is actually in the occupation
now of the United States for the pur-
pose for which it wants it.

WANT ACCOUNT
Of LAND RENTS

A bin for an accounting of the rents
and profits of certain hui lands near
HULA on the other side of this island,
was fled yesterday by Louise sylves-
ter and others, the owners of a major
ity of the hui shares, against L. K.
Naone, the trustee, and his wife, Mrs
Ponoluna Naone, the treasurer of the
hui, and three other shareowners who
have refused to join as compliments.
The bill alleges that seventeen per
sons own the forty shares of the Hui
Alma Kaluanui, which leases lands
from the Bishop estate. Naone is the
trustee, and has collected the rents
from the Chinese and japanese tenants.
His wife is the treasurer and receives
the rents, as such, from her husband.
Neither has accounted to the other
members of the hui, it is alleged for
long time, and something like $1,000
is in controversy.
The court is asked to compel an ac-
counting and to require the respondents
to pay over whatever is found due.

The Kauai Tax Appeal Court has
fixed the assessment of the Makee Su.
gar Company at nearly 100000 more
than it was returned at by the com
pany.
This is one of the most important
tax appeal eases before the Kauai tax
appeal board. The assessor assessed
the company s property as an enter
prise fer profit at 81 100000. The com
pany returned it at about 100000.
Thus there was difference of about
100000 between the Territory and the
plantation.
The Tax Appeal Court has sustained
the plantation in part and the Terri
tory in part, though the Territory has
gained more than the plantation.
