over cliffs half a mile high, to take
observations of the stream, and
finally a party was fitted out on
pneumatic RATS and succeeded in
getting through the canon. Half
way down they found nook from
which, in the course of erosion,
a great block of mountainside had
tumbled into the stream and been
eaten away. From this point it was
decided that the tunnel should be
sent through the mountain, and the
town for the men that did the work
should be established in the cove.
So River Portal came into exis-
tence. 1t has to-day five hundred
people, who boast of civilization
and opportunities that will com.
pare favorably with any town of
its size in the East. The men that
are building the tunnel have
brought their families to dwell in
the eternal shade of the canon.
Uncle Sam also maintains a hos
pital for the care of his sick, and

read the best and latest newspapers,

THERE is a thriving, busting
i town in the West where the
rays of the SUN are felt only twenty
minutes out of every twenty-four
hours. River Portal, in the Gun
nison Canon in Colorado, is the
town, and the beetling precipices
that overhang it, leaving only
strip of blue above, are responsible
for the briefness of the sunshine.
1t is a town of romance from
the viewpoint of endeavor and
accomplishment, and the task on
which its inhabitants are engaged
is like that accomplished when
Hercules turned the River Styx
into the Augean stables and cleaned
them. But here it is a roaring
mountain torrent that is to be
turned into a tunnel pierced six
miles under a mountain of solid
rock, that it's floods may spread
out on the deserts and make them
fertile for American farmers.
Uncle Sam himself is back of
the enterprise and has built the
town. Five years ago Gunnison
Canon was an unsolved mystery.
At its upper end, where it entered
a gorge with perpendicular cliffs
rising three thousand feet, men had
looked into its frothing rapids and
turned back. Twenty-four miles

Court Says Chandler
Was Too Late With
Nomination.

The Supreme Court yesterday render
ed decision in the mandamus proceed
ing of John s. Chandler against Secre-
tary E. A. Mott-Smith to compel the lat
ter to receive his nomination papers and
place his name on the official ballot.
The Secretary had refused to do so be
cause the nomination was not rendered
to him until Monday, October 5, while
the Secretary, and now the Supreme
Court, holds that Sunday, October 4,
was the last day on which such nomi-
nations could be fled according to the
law.
The court holds that the act requiring
nominations to be fled not less than
thirty days before an election is not in
conflict with the Organic Act and is
valid.
As there was no dispute as to the
facts, the principal point to be decided
was how the thirty days mentioned in
the statute were to be counted. The
Supreme Court held in accordance with
previous decisions that if the nomina
ton was fled on Monday, October 5,
it would only leave twenty mine days
before the election, when the statute
requires thirty.
This upholds Secretary Mott-Smith
and knocks out Chandler as a candi-
date. The result is that George H.
Fairchild is the only nominee for Sen
ator from the Island of Kauai, and his
election, if nothing unforeseen happens,
is foregone conclusion.

cathcars to Speak.

The Republican Executive Committee
of the Central Committee, in further
anee of a demand upon John W. Cath
cart for an answer to the Advertiser s
charges, has arranged for meeting at
the Orpheum Friday evening at which
Mr.. Cathcart will speak.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-10-20
Hasn't Read Charges.

Mr. Cathcart made the astonishing
statement on Monday morning to one of
his organs that he had not read the
charges in the Sunday Advertiser. We
quote:
81 have not yet read the Sunday
Advertiser, but am informed that Goo
Wan Hoy makes charge that in 1899
I embezzled $50 judgment that I had
obtained for him. said John W. Cath
cart this morning. E'This is false. Any
sane person knows that if 1 had en-
bezzled 500 in 1899 from Goo Wan Hoy
some mention would have been made of
it before now. 1t certainly would have
appeared in the action that Humphreys
brought for him.
"As to the statements of Colburn,
if there was any truth in them, Mr..
Kinney would certainly have taken
some action at the time, either by
bringing the matter before my superior,
the Attorney General, or before the
Bar Association. Kinney would, in all
probability, have used this in my con-
test of two years ago, as he was then
chairman of the Democratic Committee.
The alleged blackmail is a transparent
lie. The public will notice that all of
the Advertisers charges are years old.
If had been guilty of them, is it pos
sible that they would not have been
brought to light long before now9
''The public knows Colburn, Goo
Wan Hoy, ct al, and it is now appar-
ent to what depths of baseness Walter
G. Smith win sink to crafty his per-
sonal malice and hatred. The truth of
these charges viii have to be establish
ed in COURT
'Cathcart stated further that it was
his intention to follow up all further
libelOus statements by the Advertiser
by fresh libel suits. He had not read
the Sunday paper alleging that he had
misappropriated $50 belonging to Goo
Wan Hoy, but he believed it to be
libelous. The charge of blaekmail made
this morning he did consider Hbelous.''
