The editorial says that AS years ago
when the Republicans took control
this country was one OF the most In
significant countries in the world.
The writer must remember that 1t had
been only II years since the first pres

our form Of government was then new
! to the world and our nation had no
other republic to pattern after. Con-
sequently rapid growth could not be
expected until all newly arising cir
cumstances could be provided for.
The writer asks, do they expect the
Democrats are going TO better

party has some very good principles
for lettering them and that they Will
better them II they get control.

OF absolving him from all responsible

party Gen. Corbin gave out a state
ment and a cablegram intending 10

LOOKING FOR NEWS
Of MISSING FATHER

An echo of the San Francisco fire
and earthquake comes in letter re
ceived yesterday by Sheriff Iaukea
from Joseph Doyle, who writes IN an
effort to locate his father, Edward G.
DOYLE, whom he has not seen since the
big shake-up on the Coast and who
cannot know, either, the present ad-
dress of his son. The missing Doyle
is seventy-three years old, but looks
younger, and is a plumber by trade.
At one time he worked in Hawaii for
the SpreckeIs and before his disap-
pearance often expressed a desire to
return 10 the Islands. This leads his
son to suppose that possibly he Is here
now. The address Of the son is All A.
