Rodriguez had in his possession tax
receipts in the name of K. Haruki, q
Waialua plantation laborer. which he
said he had found. He professed he
did not know the name of the Porto
Rican who gave him and Lopez the
wine.
On his person, besides the saw
wherewith he said he had cut his way
out of Jail, Rodriguez had a regular
dagger knife in sheath. This he
claimed to have got from the Porto
Rican who dispensed the wine that
soured the sweet comradeshtp of the
two roguas at Aiea.
Deputy Sheriff Fernandez, when he
heard that Rodriguez was in the vi
cinity of waipahu on Thursday, gave
pursuit and fired at him as already
stated without effect. After catching
Juanito the deputy sheriff followed
Rodriguez up and fairly drove him
into the arms of August C. Spillner,
the Waipahu plantation policeman, as
the fugitive tried to take refuge in a
a house.

SHOT INTENDED
FOR MOTHER HITS
HER YOUNG SON

What appears to have been an unsuc-

batiner, of 1923 South street, was dis
closed today when 9-year-old. Philip
S~arbatiner, a son of the woman, was
shot III the arm and left leg by ONE
one concealed in the high weeds in the
rear of his home, while the boy was
working in the yard near his mother.
The Sarbatiners own the house in
which they live and last night they had
trouble with one of their tenants, Peter
Cnovezzo, was dispossessed yester-
day. because he owed four months
rent. When he left the house he threat
ened the family and said that someone
would suffer for putting him out. 1t ia

ever fired the shot intended to shoot the
boys mother, and that his aim was
poor, and, instead of hitting her, the
shots struck the boy. 1t was also said
that a hunter might ave fired the

These are the days when from all
parts Of rural New Jersey report Of
plenty and good cheer are coming in.
The summers crop has been good and
the reaper has just gathered in the re-
ward of long days of toll under hot
summer skies. The corn has been
picked. dried and strung and the hay
is bursting out of spacious lofts. Short
ening days and coo evenings speak
times of merry-making and plenty to
all members OF, the country family. ,.r,
But a dissenting voice to the happi-
ness of the farm Is heard. The pump
kin family is raising an awful hula
baloo at the deal that is being handed
to them. In the first place Mr.. Pump
kin is literally being left out in the
cold. The nights are beginning to be
frosty, but he, his wife and their chill
dren are left to sleep on, the cold
ground, prey for Jack Frost, whenever
that chilly gentleman chooses to nip
rotund Mr.. Pumpkins toes. Now why,
inquiries this gentleman who says that
he would like to be as jolly as ne is
fat, should every member of the Corn
family with whom he has hobnobbsd
during the summer be given a warn
crib to sleep In and he. left to the
mercies of the fall winds and storms?
But this is not the worst. Each day
huge, wagons loaded to the top with
big, luscious pumpkins are being drawn
from Jersey fields and hills into New
ark which, report has it, is a bad place
for a young pumpkin to begin his
career. This legend has risen because
each year thousands of pumpkins, in
nocent and guileless when they left the
farm, go to hat city and never a one
has come back. Some of the wisest
Jersey pumpkins claim that each fell
there is a great pumpkin massacre
abou Newark, and that a holiday is
set aside when men hold a great feast
to celebrate the destruction of the
pumpkin family, who are slaughtered
by the thousand and mashed end
served up in pie form.
So between fear of dissolution and
the chilly nips of Jack Frost, Mr..
Pumpkin is living an awful life. He
is, however, going to make a good fight
for his rights. and Newarkers had bet
ter look out for him. On a certain
dark night. late in October, the Pump
kin family will rise up Il its might ard
descend upon Newark, where, with
hideous faces and faring eyes, it win

EXPLAINS
WHY He OPPOSES
DIRECT PRIMARY
Says First Test in State Shows
1t ImperiIs Popular Gov
ernment Principle.

A possible repeal of the direct pri-
mary law, which he declared to have
the stamp of failure placed upon it at
its first experiment, is suggested in an
interview by former Governor Frank
lin Murphy. chairman of the State Re-
publican Committee. Mr.. Murphy
snys:
las near as I can Judge moth
ing has been gained by the new
primary law that we did not have he
fore. Theoretically the primary is ex-
cellent. but it doesn't work in opera
ton. I don't believe it fulflls the hopes
of those who secured It's enactment.
We all believe that the people should
rule, and any instrumentality that will
make that more certain should be
looked upon with favor. But I do not
believe that the direct primary as 1t
works. in New Jersey has that effect"
For one thing 1t prolongs the CAM
paign, greatly increases the expense,
and uses every one up physically and
financially. 1t Is not fair to put candi-
dates to- such great expense. Under 1t
only men with good sized bank accounts
can hope to run. the legitimate expenses
of a campaign are so largely increased.
Then. TOO, The primary is subversive
Of the rule of party government, and 1t
is only through parties in this country
that the people can rule. h primary
increases fractional duarrels, and mag
miles the political faction at the ex-
pense of the party.
Another principle of popular gov
eminent Is that a majority shall rule.
1t was demonstrated yesterday In New
Jersey that the primary endangers that
principle. One man nominated in ny
home county polled but 25 per cent, Of
the vote. Had he been named IN a
convention of delegates, where a ma
jority rule, it is reasonably certain
that he would have had a larger per-
centage of the electorate behind him.
1t is for these reasons that 1t seems to
me that the direct primary Is useless.

rode into power by means of it. speak
well Of its operation; and I think 1t
very likely that the Legislature will
