THE MAN THE MAIN THING.
Difference Between Bryan and Tart.
What the Baltimore Sun Says.

Difference Between bryan anu az
What the Baltimore Sun Says.
The Baltimore Sun. which caused
one of the big sensations of the cam
paign by its advocacy of Taft for the
presidency, points out that, while Bry-
an on his speechmaking visit recently
to Baltimore attracted a large num-
Der of people to hear his message.
twelve years ago he spoke there to
one of the greatest outpourings that
that city had ever seen at political
meeting and that SHORTLY afterward
Baltimore gave majority against him
of 81 ,098 votes.
This editorial states that in opposing
the election of Mr.. Bryan the Sun is
not opposing true Democracy or Demo
cratic principles. The choice 1t says,
Is not so much between parties as be-
tween men. THE people, we believe,
will decide in favor of restoring pros
perity through Mr.. Taft rather than
in turning prosperity from the door
through Bryan. The people now de
sire above all things the return of nor
NAL business and Industrial conditions
and industrial peace. The working
people want employment and good
wages. We do not believe that these
things can be attained by man who
has won prominence, not by sound and
enlightened craftsmanship, but by
ceaseless agitation, by ceaseless striv-
ings after something new and strange.
Mr.. Taft will carry out fearlessly and
faithfully the policies which the people
demand, but he will not consider it
necessary to throw the country Into
bankruptcy and business stagnation In
order to make 1t virtuous."

WILLING AND ABLE.
Taft Can Clean OFF the Desk" and
He Will Do, II.


Considering Mr.. Taft in the light of
the things he has done and will have
to do as president, close student Of
public men in Washington recently
wrote of him as follows:
1.-The times demand not a man bear
ing promise Of new things. but man
who Is to finish the things begun.
Such a man is Taft, a newer Of wood.
who has no ambition to link his name
with new measures, but who, with a
steady hand and heart always kind
and a mind always generously just.
can clean of the desk.
"He knows that the desk is clutter
ed up. He knows that 1t may take six
or eight years to get down to the ma
hogany under things now pending.
But the American people must know
that IN some way this must be done
before this nation can go further. and
hence there is belief that the man
who can make the Hepburn railroad
law as much part OF our common
life as the postal regulations, who can
grind the rough edges Off the Sherman
law through the courts, who can finish
the canal and deal with Cuba kindly.
honestly and firmly, who can lead the
brown men of the islands farther into
the light, is this big. hardworking.
soft hearted, fair minded, unselfsh
man Taft He can clean of the desk. "

THE TRUE CHRISTIAN SPIRIT.
As Exemplified by William Howard
Taft and Bishop Brent.

Az Exemplified by William Howard
Taft and Bishop Brent.
Another American has shown the
same noble spirit that moved William
H Taft to request President Roose-
welt to withhold his appointment as
justice of the United States supreme
court that would have brought him
back from his arduous work In the
Philippines to the lighter labors and
the more congenial scenes of his ma
tive land
Missionary Bishop Brent Of the Epis-
copal church in the Philippines, offered
the bishopric of Washington, with its
social advantages and agreeable sur
roundings ard its opportunities for IN
tercourse with many of the ablest men
of this and other countries. preferred
his life of self sacrifice in the faroff
oriental Islands and declined to leave
his work among the Filipinos for a
mansion in the capital of the United
States
In the motives that actuated Mr..
Taft and that led Bishop Brent to re-
fuse to desert the FiIipinos there is no
essential difference.
at has always been my dream to
be in the supreme COURT said Mr.
Taft in reply to President Roosevelt
when Mr.. Taft had come to Washing
ton to state the case of the Philippines
to a committee of congress, but If
you should offer me Justiceship now,
and If at the same time congress
should deprive me of my entire salary
as governor, should go straight back
to the Philippines nevertheless, for
those people expect me back and be-
lieve I will not desert them"
81 believe have the missionary
spirit" he had told the senate commit
tee.
Such is the true missionary spirit. 1t
Is the spirit that has carried Christian
doctrine and Christian civilization to
the uttermost parts Of the earth. that
has taught the brown man and the
black man to feel that there are those
of the whites who do not regard them
merely as prey for the greed and am
bition Of the stronger race. The al
truiSm Of such men as Taft and Brent
Is a revelation to the people of our orr
entail possessions which must go far
toward convincing them that Ameri
cans really have their welfare at heart
and are leading them along the path of
education AMI self reliance toward the
goal of a stable and well ordered gov
eminent.

HIS MISTAKE.

Irritating Habit.
Bunsen was always a great kidder
he isn't any more
Bunsen Is a lawyer, although, OF
course, he is known by a different
name. Don't ever get the idea, though,
that this didn't really happen just be-
cause Bunsen's real nomination isn't
mentioned.
AS we were saying, Bunsen used to
be pretty much of a kidder. He would
even kid his own patient little wife.
Those who care to read on down a
little farther will learn why he ceased
to be kidder.
One evening last week when Bunsen
got home his wife had new hat to
show him. 1t was some hat. Any
body could have seen that 1t was the
final phrase in female headgear.
But Bunsen started in to make fun
of 1t. He said 1t looked MS If 1t had
been trimmed by cross eyed milliner
on an empty stomach. And he made
lot of other disparaging remarks that
were extremely harassing to poor Mrs.
Bunsen.
"DJe buy 1t sight unseenT' he in
quired Say. how much do they pay
the girl that sold you that? She ought
to have a raise. Any girl who could
put that one over customer must be
something of a smooth saleslady. I'm
here to remark"
Mrs. Bunsen was almost In tears
Bunsen had to go into the other room
to have a quiet laugh at her expense
Oh. he was the great kidder, all right
The next day, though. he had forgot
ten all about the hat.
The day after that he was reminded
of his little jokefest. Mrs Bunsen
handed him a slip of paper when he
came home to get his victuals that
evening. 1t was bill for retrimming
that hat; 1884 1t came to.
Bunsen paid 1t without murmur
and said the revised edition OF the hat
was Just exactly right. He isn't pak-
ing fun Of hats any more,

Explanatory, Not Explanatory.
rrIortford Courant


Judge Taft is not an explanatory
man, but an explanatory man. He Is
not denunciatory, but analytic. His
mind does not ring. but it thinks. His
nature is not pugnacious. but CON
ciliatory. His attitude is not that OF
an opponent. but that of an intelligent
and candid friend His instinct is to
deal fairly and justly by all men. no
matter what they think or say about
him-to abhor the sin. but to deal
kindly with the sinner. He does not
play upon public emotions-he does
not know how-but he both knows
how and has the courage to enlighten
the public sense. He is serene, in
structed. experienced and self reliant

Contract Is Closed For
Work To Proceed
In Puma

Hilo, May quite one Of the most
Important transactions ever compile
ed in Hilo was arranged and settled
as to details last week between the
Hawaiian Mahogany Lumber Company
and Arlole Brothers. the well known
contracting firm.
In plain terms the contract calls for
the cutting of two million five hun.
drcd thousand (2.50O.000) railroad ties
by Ariole Brothers. and further for the
furnishing of ten million 1OO00,OO0)
feet. board measure. of ohia lumber to
be cut up for switch ties. these being
of different lengths from the ordinary
ties used by railroads. Roughly, the
contract means the expenditure of Il
sum of about si0O,0OO.OO on this
island.
All of the ties will be cut from the
ohin forests OF Hawaii, the required
lumber being taken from Puma. The
Hawaiian Mahogany Lumber Company
now has control of 1900 acres of ohia
forest in Puma, portion of which is
Catholic Mission land and which Is at
present under lease to the Olaa Sugar
Company. and to the Puma Sugar Com
pany. The forest lies between the
$50 foot and the 1000 foot lines of alti.
tude.
The papers having been signed last
week. the Ariole brothers went back
to Puma at once and work actually
started on the contract yesterday, for
which the contract calls for the deliv-
cry of the required lumber within five
years, 1t is plainly TO the advantage Of
the contractors to complete their job
in as quick time as possible. The
contract entered into calls for the
pulling down of the trees and saving
them into lengths convenient for cut.
ting into tie lengths. The contract
ors work will be finished when the
| ties are cut, the Mahogany Company
taking the finished ties away from the
scene of operations. Work commenced
above Pahoa at Il distance of about n
mile.
II is intended to pull down the trees
with donkey engines and then saw
them by hand. for the present N
least. This will give employment to
about $50 men. Within a reasonable
period. as soon as plans for active op
erations are concluded, the contract
ors must furnish 5000 ties day which
the Mahogany Company will take
away, the contractors work beins
done when the lumber IL cut and IL
