WASHINGTON LETTER.
Rrom Our Regular CORRESPONDENCE

From Our Regular Correspondence
Washington, d. c., Sept 90, 1908.
simultaneously with the return OF
the President to Washington, Re-
political headquarters in fact, IL not
in form, have been shifted to this
city and the President himself, with
out invitation and without saying
"by your leave" has assumed con-
troll. Everybody is saying: well,
it's just like him.. Teddy is bav-
ing his last go in the glare OF the
limelight and be won't stand aside.
Many OF the leaders Of the Repub-
lican party believe that the Presi-
dent should abstain from frequent
controversy, especially at this early
stage of the campaign. One dis.
tinguished member of the party,
whose counsel has been often sought
by the President, expressed the
opinion today that such should be
his proper policy. The Democrats
are congratulating themselves that
the fire of the President has been
drawn and his influence for the Re-
publican candidate will not be as
potent now as il he had held himself
in reserve for the home stretch.
The President had q busy day
yesterday but he put no more gin
ger into the campaign He was re-
ceiving compliments on his treat
ment Of Bryan and Haskell in YES
terday's letter and last night before
leaving bis Office. waited to read
the latest afternoon news from the
camps OF the Democratic leaders
Governor Haskell will quit the
treasurership of the Democratic
National Committee, and Dupont will
have to leave the Republican Com
mittee. So honors and disgrace are
balanced. Il is fact that Haskell
has not been and is not popular with
national democratic politicians OF
the better type. They resented his
intrusive activity at the Denver
Convention and his affiliations with
Standard OIL and other trusts were
the subject of much anxious discus
sion at Denver. There are official
denials to the contrary, but it is a
fact understood by Democrats with
esoteric Knowledge that arrange
ments had been made for the accept
ance Of Haskel's resignation before
the Presidents diatribe.

Democratic Campaign Contribu-
tons.

The undersigned. as Treasurer OF
the Committee Of One Hundred, a
political organization throughout the
State of Maryland for the purpose
of electing Bryan and Kern and the
regular Congressional candidates of
the Democratic party. having duly
given bond to The State OF Maryland
and filed the same with the Secre-
tary OF State, as provided under
chapter l22 Of the Acts OF the General
Assembly of Maryland of 1908 for
the purpose of preventing corrupt
practices, is now in position to re-
ceive and account for. according 30
law, such contributions as may be
made by all citizens; and has also
been appointed by the Democratic
National Committee, member OF the
Finance Committee of the National
Organization for the State of Mary
land.
This new law, which throws much
labor on political treasurer, directs
the names of all contributors and the
amounts given to be made a public
record in the Circuit Court Clerks
Office OF the respective counties or
Baltimore City. No subscriptions
without the name of the giver can be
received. Any person who sub
scribes in any other name than bis
own, and every treasurer W no know
ingly receives such a subscription
is subject to fine and Imprisonment
ard will be Ineligible to public Office
for four years from the date of the
offence. A detailed account of ex-
penditufes is required. The law
prohibits subscriptions from cor
porations The publicity thus given
to all subscriptions is apparently
intended to discourage them from the
special interests for improper pur-
poses and also correspondence to
encourage the party leaders and
beneticiaries, including the rank and
file of the people, whose interests
are served by honest government
to bear the campaign expenses of the
party which they choose to support
The public record of contributions
will thus serve as an index of the
individuals who give fiuaucial sup
port 20 the Democratic party in this
important campaign.

OPIUM IMPORTERS
WELL STOCKED UP

However much the order issued by
Chief Wiley of the Pure Food Bureau
to stop the importation of opium into
the United States except for medicinal
purposes may have surprised soma, It
came as no surprise evidently to many
of the opium importers in Honolulu $
Chinatown. For months some of the
local importers have been expecting
such an order and have stocked up
with the poppy juice, several big sup
plies being stored in safe places wait
ing for the rise in price that is bound
to come very shortly. Within the past
week the price per tin has jumped
from seven to ten dollars, and it is ex-
pected that twenty-dollar figure will
come before the last of the stock on
hand is gone and smuggling has to
begin to keep up the supply.
Among some of the Chinese the pros
poets presented for a good thing
through the necessity of reviving tie
smuggling of opium look bright. AS a
matter of fact, some have been lcok-
ing forward to the time when there
would be easy money again in beating
the customs men in landing the dope.

,IARRETTMAY ANNOUNCEMENT
POLICE OFFICERS NEXT WEEK

undecided question in the minds OF
many as to whether he will be retain
ed by the Democratic administration.
He has considerable influence among
Democrats and Republicans alike.
The Office of chief clerk, capably fill
ed for the past two years by Charles
Rose, now Deputy Sheriff elect, is re-
garded as a plum by ofiee-seekers, and
about two dozen applications have
been filed for that job.
AS to the receiving station, where
three clerks are employed, the title OF
the men may be the same as heretofore
receiving clerks. In other cities the
title is generally desk-sergeant, but
there is likelihood that the old title
will stick. Sheriff elect Jarrett wants
to put the department on a metropol-
itan basis, and to equalize the author
itv of heads of departments. The early
announcement of the personnel of the
force is made in order to give new ap-
pointees an opportunity to make bust
ness arrangements and order uniforms.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-12-11

Sheriff elect Jarrett may be in read
mess next week to announce the per-
sonnet of the police force which will
be on the rolls after he takes control
of the station on January 4.
Mr.. Jarrett says that there will be
changes throughout in the heads of
bureaus, and that the status of heads
of such departments, in future, will
be similar to those in mainland city
police departments.
This viii mean the substitution of
the title of captain of detectives for
chief of detectives, captain of police
Irregular foot and mounted) for senior
captain, so that the head of the de-
tective force will have the same rank
as the head of the regular police, thus
eliminating difference in rank or au-
thority in these two important depart
ments, the Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff
thereby being the only officers who
will have the real say-so as to poll
cies.
If the changes are sweeping, this
will mean the substitution of a new
head of the detective force, vice Kala-
kiela, who is believed to have an ap-
pointment elsewhere in the depart
ment, and renews the rumor that he
may be captain of police. Little ere
dence is given the rumOr that Charley
Clark, a Republican, will be given the
billet of captain. Lieutenant Dick
Lane of the mounted police may re-
tain his Office, being one of the most
competent men Ill the service.
The name of Billy Howell has also
been connected with the detective
force, but it is unlikely he would be
selected to head the bureau, although
he might get minor position. The
second officer in charge of the detec-
tive force may be a sergeant, instead
of assistant chief, as at present. AS
far as known, Harry Webb may be
continued in Office as hack inspector,
having proven an intelligent, capable
officer
There will undoubtedly be changes
among the Iieutenants and sergeants of
the three foot police watches. Ser
geant Aea will be retained. He has
been a faithful, painstaking officer
who took pride in his sergeant s
chevrons, and, above all, is known as
an original Democrat.
Just what may be the status of Cap
tain Parker is unknown. The captain
has seen service under many sheriffs,
high sheriffs, marshals, etc. 1t is au
