The Scotch terriers were there, too,
wearing plaid sashes and Carnegie caps
They were generous pups, for they were
willing that you should take them bis
cults and meats. Chink Chink. the
ChinaWan, who has no queue, was
present. Mastiffs and great danes were
funny in contrast to the d~achshunde,
who were in sections near them. The
latter looked like lazy Germans, ready
for a glass of beer and a pipe. They
didn't get it. The chow-chows, Italian
greyhounds, didn't do much barking.
They were strangers in a strange land.
Then the toy dogs. all bundled UP in
warm flannels and whining and crying
for their mistresses who try to stay
near them.
"Oh. darling said one visitor as she
viewed a toy black and tan. And so he
was, n as if in appreciation of the
compliment he wagged his tail and
yelped and fidgeted in delight.
And all these great big dogs and the
middle sized ones, and the teeny weeny
ones came this morning in automobiles,
carriages and trolley cars. Never was
there such a crowd of well dressed
women in attendance in that Hill hall.
They were almost as much of an at
traction as the darling little dogs. For
they wore .ermine furs, silk and satins
and diamonds, and were proudly dis
playing their pets. One woman who
was handsomely gowned in a light gray
cloth dress and ermine furs, was wildly
expostulating with the secretary of the
Kennel Club, who is hard of hearing.
explaining that someone took the ken
mel for her dog. She got another KEN

the visitors were busy criticising and

FAVORING THE BANKS.

Why is it that the government takes such
tender care Of the banks and will do nothing
for the people?
The government has issued currency to the
banks charging them at first one per cent and
later half that rate. It has collected from
the people as taxes a large surplus of money
and deposited it with the banks; and while
this large surplus of government funds was
in the banks, the government borrowed money
by issuing 30 year bonds. This was for the
purpose of leaving the money in the banks.
Now, to help the banks out in case they get
in distress new law has been passed direct
ing that the government issue to them when
they apply for it, 500 million dollars Of en-
Urgency currency
Why should not the government help the
people when they get in pinch, if they can
furnish as good security as the banks furnish?
The government will help the banks and the
banks will help the people Congressman may
answer.
But it is we'll known that in times Of panic
the banks can't help the borrowers-it is all

NATURAL RESOURCES.

The possibilities Of benefit contained in the
Conference for the Conservation of Natural
Resources, which will open in Washington to-
morrow, are illimitable. Whether or not the
results attained will bear a reasonable COM
parison to these possibilities depends very
much upon the mental attitude Of the con
ferrees as they approach the problems. The
purpose of the conference is vital in it's rela-
ton to the prosperity Of the individual states
and of the nation. The effort to conserve the
practical, not merely sentimental, as some
think. To divert attention from the practical
phases, and to devote the occasion to con-
tentious discussion of the issue of state and
federal rights, would be an unfortunate out
come and a sacrifice of all the possibilities Of
benefit which might accrue from the simple
purpose of accomplishing results.
The tendency to inject into the discussions
Of the conference disturbing claim Of state
rights suggests possibility of danger. But
the issue cannot be avoided. In fact, if the
issue could be met in the proper spirit, the
conference could perform no greater service
than to discuss inteligently the question of
state rights as defined by the present interpre-
tation Of the constitution. IF, as a result of
such discussion, it is demonstrated that there
exists necessity for authority greater than
that Of any single state, which is not recogniz-

they can do-more than they can do-to meet
the demands of the depositors.
Why not help the merchant in distress,
any one in distress, if he can furnish the
security?
During times of financial depression people
may lose their mortgaged property-lose their
all-be deprived of the savings of lifetime
why not come to their aid as we'll as to the
aid of Rockefeller and Morgan and lesser
lights in the banking world?
The new law is especially helpful to the
railroad banks as railroad bonds are accept
ed as security for the emergency currency,
and the men who own both railroads and banks
can issue bonds and gen the currency.
Why come to the rescue Of these million
aires, but let the panic NOV down the people?
The question is easy to answer. The money
power controls both the old parties and the
people have not yet caught on to the fact.
Do you favor government money and govern
ment railroads? If so why don't you vote
your sentiments? They are the greatest
qusetions- greater than all other questions
combined. The Peoples party was formed as
common ground on which all who believe in
government money and government railroads
could unite It was formed by Republicans,
Democrats and Greenbackers It is the only
party that favors these two great steps Of
reform and progress Vote the People s party

national campaign There will be a full elect
oral ticket put out for Watson and Williams
Narrow minded fools, whose "wish is
father to the thought" and whose confidence
is stronger in the trickery Of politicians than
it is in the virtue Of the people, have sought
to silence down Tom Watson.
And they failed
Then they tried to cheat him.
And they succeeded.
Then they tried to write him down.
And they failed.
The simple truth, allied with justice sup
ported continually by virtuous masculine
like Tom Watson; and published every week,
must win.
It is true that this valorous Georgian is per-
sonally opposed to the liquor dealers; but the
Peoples Party is not with him in this, and he
knows it, and he is liberal enough to not try to
force his personal desires upon them in this
"private" matter. Tom Watson is not
'Parkerite," nor is he 'Bryanite" But
he is a "Roosevelitian'! 'The oppressor's
wrong, the proud man s contumely' has been
borne with spirit of fortitude and patience
by Tom Watson which is extremely rare in
these fat and pursey times,
To stand up for the people against such
powerful enemies; to be subjected to such
personal indignities to be betrayed by those
who had his confidence, when he might have
taken the world easy and enjoyed both honors
and emoluments by being negative, a non
committal; represents a standard Of masculine
virtue which will compare with the most dis
tinguished Civil Heroes Of America. The
triumph Of Tom Watson over such a powerful
foe as Hoke Smith in Georgia, is the beginning
of Tom Watson s career.-The Patriarch.

TOM wATsoN's TRIUMPH IN GEORGIA.

Time at last sets all things even''
When Hoke Smith was elected governor of
Georgia, two years ago, "Tom Watson" sus-
tanned him vigorously. The "Railroad ques-
ton" and the 'Negro question: were the two
vital issues before the people of Georgia two
years ago, and these two questions are still in
a very unsatisfactory condition in Georgia,
due principally to the non-feasance in office of
Hoke Smith, the governor of Georgia Tom
Watson has been assailing this delinquency Of
the governor for some time, through the
columns Of The Jeffersoaian. Here are a few
selections from The Jeffersonian of May 81,
1908 published Is days before the primaries
held in Georgia.
The following is from Tom Watson's Jeffer-
sonian May Fl, 1908:
Yes, Governor Smith told his friends at
cambridge, laughingly, that he didn't care
what Watson thought or said, and that it made
no difference to him whether Watson supported
him or mott being a we'll known fact that
Watson had lost all his following.
AS soon as the governor has had his laugh
out, let us unite in prayer.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1908-06-25

By the way, what does the Hoke Smith or
gan, the Atlanta Journal, mean by asking this
question:
'What has become Of the good old sockless
element of the Populist party?'
Which was the "sockless element" anyway?
Were not the men of the Peoples Party
leaders as we'll as men Of the rank and file,
composed of as good material as the country
could furnish?
Didn't Bryan get and keep his hold on Ne
braska by claiming to be as good a Populist
as any of us, and did he not vote the Populist
national ticket?
Of such were our leaders, What was the
makeup of our army itself?
Union soldiers who had marched and fought
with Grant and Sherman and Sheridan and
Thomas; Confederate soldiers who had strug-
gled and suffered half-starved and half-naked,
with Lee and Jackson and Forrest and John
ston; farmers Of the North and South who had
never asked anything of the Government but
equal and exact justice; young lawyers who
had all to lose and nothing to gain by joining
the Peoples Party; laboring men who asked
nothing but fair days wage for a fair days
work; the unprivileged seeking to set bounds
to the monstrous greed Of privilege.
Who were the "sockless" Pops? What is
meant by the sneer9
Let the Hoke Smith organ speak plainly and
let understand one another.
If Hoke's organ has started out to insult
the old Populists, as Bryan s manager did in
1896, he will discover, as Bryan did, that the
insult will be resented.
Our Populist friends should be careful not
to make any pledge or cast any ballot which
will fetter their freedom of action in the

COURT NOTES.
SENTENCE
FOR WOMAN SLAYER

Higate, the Japanese who killed his
would appear to have been found
guilty, at the Waikiki term, of moth
ing more serious than either man
slaughter in the third degree or as
sault and battery. Leastwise the SEN
tence imposed on him by Judge Ke-
poikai, as reported to Deputy Attor-
ney General Whitney by wireless yes
terday, would not be according to law
for any higher offense than one of
those just mentioned under an indict-
ment for murder. Imprisonment is
mandatory for all else in the homicide
statutes below murder in the first de-
gree, the penalty for which is exclu
sively death.
Judge Kepoikai sentenced Higate to
pay a fine of one dollar, RENTING the
costs. AS the maximum sentence that
may be imposed for manslaughter in
the third degree is Imprisonment at
hard labor for five years, or a fine
of one thousand dollars, and that for
assault and battery, under an indict-
ment for murder or manslaughter,
Imprisonment at hard labor for two
years, or a fine of five hundred dol
lars, the elimination of Imprisonment
and the paltry fine of one dollar with
gift of costs, in the case of this
homicide, would indicate that the
court held the life of the unfortunate
woman done TO death by Higate as
cheap indeed.
1t will be remembered that Higate
was found lying apparently uncon-
scious by the side of the dead body
of the woman whose lover he had
been. One end of the victims obi was
tightly drawn around her neck, the
other end encircling Higate's neck
closely enough to have checked his
respiration, producing the semicoma-
tose condition in which he was found.
His story as we'll as defense was that
the woman had gained his consent,
with more or less coaxing, to their
dying together in the mode that
proved only too successful in her
case.

FIRST ANNUAL
SUBSIDY PAID
$4,000 From Washington for
College of Agriculture
of Hawaii.

Governor Frear yesterday received a
United States Treasury warrant for
thirty thousand dollars, being the Fed
eral subsidy for the current year to the
Hawaii College of Agriculture and Me-
chanic Arts.
The warrant is drawn in favor of the
Treasurer of the Territory, to be paid
over by him on the order of the Board
of Regents of the college.
The subsidy can be used only for
maintenance, none of it for buildings.
1t is incumbent on the treasurer of the
college to report to Washington each
year what he has done with the money.
Governor Frear, it will be remember
ed, wrote to Washington for this money
shortly before he went on his tour of
the Island of Maui. He is gratified at
the prompt response.
Although only a small portion of this
$4,000 can be spent, being available
only till the end of the fiscal year on
June 80, the college will come in for
subsidy of $50, 900 payable at the be-
ginning of next fiscal year, July /, 1908.
The additional $4,000 is the annual in
crease of subsidy to such colleges until
the amount paid each year reaches
$50, 600.
