The Republican party is silent ON the
question of publicity of campaign funds.
| Mi. Taft says that the list of contribute
;ors will be announced after election. Just
now he desires to conceal the sources Of
the Republican ''slush' fund.
There are several instances on record
of the willingness of Republican manar-
ers to make public campaign contribn-
tons after election. One Of these OF

tions in New York three years ago. me
question of the donation made by the
Equitable Life Assurance Society came
up IN conpection with a mysterious loan
of S6S5,GG0, made by the Mercantile
Trust Company to the Equitable.
Cornelius n. Bliss. who was treasurer
Of the Republican national committee and
also trustee in the Equitable, was ask
ed this question, according to the report
published by the Chicago Record Herald.
Republican newspaper:
Did you, as treasurer Of the Repnb:
lican national committee accept or receive
a contribution of 500, 900 from the fund
OF $6S5,OOO which figures as a loan. to
James w. Alexander and Thomas b. ,Jors
dan, as trustees from the Mercantile
Trust Company, the existence Of That loan
beng known to you as director Of the
Equitable Society Z"
Mr.. Bliss answer was: II dbsolutel,
refuse to answer any such question. The
question is "a decidedly improper one. 80
This was the willingness of the treas
urer of the Republican national commit
tee to make public the source of the par
tvs contribution, nearly year after the
election. Subsequent Investigation re.
yealed the fact that not only the Equit.
able. but the Mutual the New York Life
and other big insurance companies dad
contributed tens of thousands of dollars
of their policy holders money to the Re
publican campaign fund.
The $260,OO0 fund which Hartman
raised was not made public until two and
half years after the election and then
through no voluntary action on the part,
of either Mr.. Hartman or Mr.. Roosevelt.
The Record Herald's publication is an.
interesting chapter upon the question of
the willingness Of Republican managers
TO publish campaign contributions, even:
| after election.

Difficult to Bulldoxe Them Thi.
Year.
Walter Wellman, writing to the Chi,
cago Record Herald from Cincinnati, o.,
says:
1t is significant that the Republican
managers are endeavoring to induce EN-.
ployers to bring pressure upon their men,
as was done in 1896 very effectively and
ito lesser extent in 1900. But it is adj
mitted these tactics do not work as well
now. In the first place, employers are
not much disposed to exert themselves.
Most of them are opposed to Bryan, and
some of them think his election would
be bad for business, but few of them are
intense about 1T OF care to incur the i'll
will Of their men by trying to coerce or
frighten them. In the second place, labor
won't stand for it, In the words of one
factory manager, that has played out
Here in Cincinnati was case know
of. The owner of shop called in his
foreman and said to him:
Sullivan, / think it only fair to tell
you that if Bryan is elected this shop
will be closed the 4th of November. /
am little ahead of the game, and will
keep what have and shut down rather
than risk my profits in the Bryan dull
times. Now, how are you going to vote? 2
For Bryan replied Foreman Sulli-
van, and so will most of the 1873 men in
the shop"

William Nelson Cromwell, the legal
representative of p. II. Hartman and
the Wall street lawyer who engineered
the Panama deal, was the first big con.
tributor to the Republican campaign fund.
He gave $50, 600 to the Republican ma
tional campaign slush fund. Now it is
announced that Andrew Carnegie, head Of
the steel trust, has made donation Of
$4,000 towards financing the election Of
Judge Taft. These are the two contribu-
lions from trust sources that have reach
ed the public, and indicate very clearly
on which side the trust interests are ar
rayed in this campaign.

The investigation of the laukea-
lsoi matter went on as usual this
morning before the special commit
Tee of the Supervisors. But the COM
mittec will not be ready to report
this evening at the meeting which is
to be held.
Chairman Hustace of the Board Of
Supervisors stated this morning that
this committee will probably make its
report at the meeting which is To be
held on the 18th, or about that time.
This Is u special meeting, called in
connection with the pay roll, and it
was thought popularity about town
yesterday that no report would be
forthcoming even then, as the meet.
ing was called for one specific pur-
pose.
However, this brings the tentative
date Mt which the public will know
the findings of the special committee
nearer than popularity supposed.
This morning, the Supervisors went
| further than the Grand Jury, and
had two extra witnesses in. Apani
was called, and Chinese by thu
name of All Pong.

COL. !. 5. SPALDING
IS COMING Home
Kappa Land Matters
Will Then Take
New Life

Col. Y. s. Spalding is said to be
expected among the arrivals in the
Siberia on Monday, and It is suppos-
ed that the Kapaa land matters will
again take place in the front row.
The present status of the Kapaa
lands is: that the survey for cutting
the upper forty-acre lots into twenty
acre lots has been completed; the
exchange proposition is deadlocked,
although the Colonel may make some
deal before he gets through; mean
while assuming that the deadlock will
continue, the Territorial officials are
said to be preparing to lease the
cane lands of kapaa for nine years,
which will make the leases on Kappa
and the Waialua lands leased by the
Lihue plantation expire on the same
date.
There are some Kauai people who
believe that when Mr.. Spalding gets
here definite plan will be worked
cut and the very desirable exchange
proposition carried through, whereby
the public land and the private lands
will be consolidated instead of sand
wichcd. as they now are.
The Makce Sugar Company has
been heavy loser by the continued
wrangling over the lands and the en-.
forced delay. II is stated that the
plantation next year will not hav,
more than three-thousand-ton crop
all on account of its inability to set
tie the lease question. The equip
ment of the plantation is large
enough for a ten-thousand-ton crop
lalthough 1t has been reckoned as IN
eight-thousand-ton property.
