MADE GOOD, As WAS

LOCK HAVEN, Pennsylvania, Nov
ember 20.-As was to be expected, the
Honolulu students from Uncle Sans
possession in the Pacific ocean, who
filed an engagement at the opera house
Monday as the second entertainment in
the Star course, acquitted themselves in
a most pleasing manner, and while they
were loath at times to do so they were
compelled to respond to many encOres.
This was especially true in the Hawai-
ion love song, by Nine. Anehila and
William Holoua, and the comedy sex.
tet, Kilauea. The students were attired
in native costume, resembling that of
Mexicans, and used their instruments
like veterans. Nine. Anehila possessed
a voice of remarkable clearness and
volume. The dissolying colored views
of scenes and buildings about Honolulu
and in the Hawaiian Islands generally,
with descriptive explanations, was one
of the features of the entertainment.

FERN OFFERS To
ABIDE THE RESULT
The Mayor-EIeGt Files His
Answer in Election
Contest.

| Mayor elect Joseph J. Fern has filed
his answer to the election contest peti
ton brought against him some time ago
In the answer it is stated, as to those
paragraphs which set out that the petit
TONERS are all registered voters and all
voted, that the defendant has no in
! formation which would enable him to
affirm or deny this and therefore he
does neither. He does however declare
that there are no thirty of them resi-
dent of any one election precinct with
in the meaning of the statute and that
therefore the court is without jurisdic-
ton to try the ease. If however the
court decides that it has jurisdiction
the answer proceeds to deny cate
gorically every allegation of the petit
ton upon which could be based a find
ing that Lane and not Fern was
elected
Taking up the allegations as to each
precinct wherein it is alleged that Lane
received more votes than the official
returns gave him, or Fern fewer, these
allegations are denied.
AS to the allegations in regard to
the Fourteenth Precinct of the Fifth
District upon which the petition lays
such stress, the precinct in which the
petition charges Willie Crawford with
such Machiavellian industry, consider
able space is devoted to this. As to
all that part of this paragraph in which
it is alleged that Crawford influenced
Chinese voters who intended to vote for
Lane to vote for Achi, the answer says
it is irrelevant and scandalous and asks
that it be stricken from the record
The answer then proceeds to deny
that in this precinct votes cast for Lane
were illegally rejected or counted for
Fern, or that votes illegally cast for
Fern were counted for him, or that the
actual result was different from that
of the official return. 1t is denied on
information and belief that Crawford
kept the tally sheet falsely or fraudu.
lently or incorrectly, or that he pretend
ed to tally for Lane when in fact he
simply ran his pencil through a mark
already there 1t is denied on informa.
ton and belief that he was in any
place in connection with the. polling
place that he did not have a right to
be, but that he was appointed by the
County of Oahu to represent it at this
precinct polling place and his services
were accepted by the Inspectors Of
Election.
In conclusion it is admitted for the
purposes of this contest that Lane re-
ceived only PISS votes in all, as the
petition alleges, instead of 2212 given
him by the returns, but it is alleged
that Fern received 1920, and more The
bill prays that the petition may be dis
there shall be a recount in the pre-
cincts in which the petition alleges
error, it prays that the votes cast for
Fern but illegally or enormously re-
jected may be counted for him and that
the determination of who was elected
shall abide the result.

SLOWER RAILROAD TRAINS.
Whatever Brings Elimination of
speed "a Beneacent influence.

W hnatefeF brings Dtmiuutt0n OF
speed a Benedcent influence.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer
The decision Of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road to add one hour to the running time
of its two special express trains between
Pittsburg and New York is eminently
sensible. Any movement to check or
curb the speed mania is commendable,
in that Il tends 20 make human life
more secure. But, strangely enough. the
Pennsylvania order was not issued with
this end in view. 1t is distinctly stated
that there are other reasons; reasons, ap-
parently OF more weight in the estima-
ton OF those who issued the order.
II is stated that the traffic has in
creased so much this winter that extra
cars are necessary on these fast trains
and that with the additional cars the
speed cannot be attained. It is. there
fore, merely from economy that the
schedule is changed. 1t would cost much
more 10 provide for the extra ears by
running the trains in two sections. and
by running them in a single section speed
must be sacrificed.
Whatever the reason for the change Il
should be welcomed by the travelling pub
lie. The difference Of one hour In travel
ing is Insignificant It is conceivable that
in the gravest emergencies OF life this
amount Of delay might be UnwelcOme, but
for nine hundred and ninety-nine out OF
Il thousand passengers il can make no
material difference. And then, too, there
is a feeling that 1t is better to be an
hour late than to be a long time dead.
The Washington herald., 1908-01-12

greatest men in literature were not lit
eTary? That is certainly true of Homer
and Shakespeare They were not labor
iously occupied in perfecting their style.
They simply put in words what they saw,
what they felt regardless Of the methods
that had been employed by the writer's
who had gone before them. Shakespeare
was comparatively speaking, the hack
writer Of his day. Johnson was the great
literary artist, who could afford to look
down on his contemporary with a sigh Of
pity for his little Latin and less Greek.
But the one gave free expression TO the
most marvellous originality ever known In
the world Of thought. the other plodded
on with his copies of the classies-and so
the hack writer became the king of let
teTs for all time
1t is altogether a mistake to suppose
that the public and publishers do not
want originality The latter would sue
ceed just as well as it did in Shakes
peare's day. The trouble is that our writ
ers are too busy studying the literary
style Of Europe. They are ambitious 20
incorporate IN their work the verbal sym
metries OF the French writer's and they
tail TO recognize the superabundanCe Of
material that awaits their choosing right
here. Never before in the world S history
has there been so fertile a soil for genius
as lies ready for the literary pillow in
America to-day. 1t is here that the strug-
gle for existence is being waged most
ferCely with titanic forces arrayed on
every side. that partakes Of all the glories
that would furnish forth world epic AT
a touch from the wand Of some fearless.
far-seeing genius. New York is the center
OF it all more intensely typical of Amer
lea than Paris is of France or London is
of England, 80
