The Rich Hill tribune. (Rich Hill, Mo.) 1903-1911, 1908-03-05

Japan has opened up the old
question concerning China by de-
msnding a large indemnity Of
that country.
The state convention in st.
Louis put all of the party work
ers on the firing line, and pros
poets are brighter than ever for
Q sweeping Republican victory
this year.
Hon. Lawrence NJ. Griffith is
going to be in the race for re
election to the legislature. The
enly thing we hold against this
genial gentleman is that he is a
Democrat.
No punishment is too severe
for those who have been attempt
ing to wreck passenger trains in
this state. Fortunately most OF
them have been discovered be-
fore any great wrecks happened.

Republican State Plat.
form

Republican State Plat
form
At the meeting Of the republican state
central committee, held at Bismarck, Sep
TENDER 2. the following platform was
adopted upon Which the republican can
didates for state Office will stand during
the present campaign.
We, the republicans Of the state Of
North Dakota, reafarm our allegiance to
the fundamental principles of republic
canism, as laid down in the national
platform.
1. We endorse the administration and
policy Of President Roosevelt, and de-
clare our appreciation of his efforts that
our government shall be in fact as well
as in name, administered in the inter.
ests Of the whole people. We believe
with him that there should be no domt-
nation ofour politicsib by predatory wealth
or special interests, but the privileges
conferred. by the government should be
equally shared by all, and that all citi-
zens should be equal before the law.
q. As republicans we rejoice in the
act that our standard bearer in this presi-
Dental campaign, Hon. William H.
Taft of Ohio. is the foremost exponent Of
the Roosevelt policies, and call atten-
tion. to the fact that his training has
been such as to- thoroughly equip him for
the duties of this high Office, and that
his whole career al a public official has
been characterized by honesty, efficiency,
unselfshness, and the highest sense of
pubic duty, and we challenge the democ-
racy to point to a single act of his
which has not been consistent with far
sighted craftsmanship and for the best
interests of the people.
8 We favor the speedy revision Of the
tariff by the republican party in such
manner that while all necessary protect
ion to legitimate American industries
is retained, all duties which are nc long
er needed in their present form shall be
reduced or abolished and we specially
recommend the abolition of all duties on
those articles whose production or dis
tribution are controlled: and manipulated
by trusts.
S. We heartily favor such legislation
of the present national administration in
relation to the preservation and conser-
walton of the natural wealth and resour-
ces of the country, and especially its eff
orts in relation to forestration. the re-
claiming of the arid west by irrigation,
and making nee more the waterways of
the country national highways which
shall be free and open to all our citizens.
S. We heartily favor such legislation,
either through postal savings bank or
guarantee of bank deposits, as shall
thoroughly safeguard all depositors, pro-
vided that any system of postal saving
banks shall be so administered as to re-
tain the money in the community where
deposited.

FIXED
BY LIDDY
SAILORS UNION MAN WINS AN
OVERWHELMING VICTORY WITH.
THE DICTIONARY.

A sailor lad was called up out of
the hold of the bark r. P. Rithet at
the railroad wharf at o'clock this
morning and ordered by the first mate
to go to singing sugar. He obeyed,
but did not operate at the new game,
to him, as the mate thought he should
and the mate ordered him to quit.
The sailor knocked off and went
ashore and complained to the shipping
commissioner, II. N. Almy.
Captain Drew a little later arrived
at the commissioners luxurious offices
on Queen street. Next on the scene
was Hon. Joseph r. Liddy, local pleni-
potentiary for the Sailors Union of
the Pacific. A reporter was also pres
ent.
Captain Drew made the ungarnished
statement that the mate had no right
to fire man and the sailor should
have come to him. He did not wish
to fire the lad.
The young mariner declared that he
could not get along with the mate.
Liddy then addressed the assem-
blage to the following effect:
1T is not within the province of my
jurisdiction to manifest any favor or
prejudicial attitude to the master, to
the mariner or to the United States
Shipping Commissioner, but uninhu-
enced by ought save an unbiased ap-
probation of the situation | wish to
promulgate the intelligence that the
statutes distinctly provide that 1t is
solely the perogative of the master to
permanently relieve a mariner from
his duties and that any alleged dis
charge by an inferior officer is invalid

there is as yet no index of advancing
years in your countenance, let us sug-
gest that you hold converse with your
commanding officer and arrange this
evident temporary misunderstanding,

fore, and in one case the matter has
even gone as far as Washington. The
vessels arrival here with officers charg-
ing the crew with cowardice, has stlf-
cd the matter up again.
Secretary Lau Kui, of the Chinese
consulate, said this morning that he
thought that the trouble with the Tolo-
san crew was that they were maltreat-
ed, rather than that they showed any
cowardice in stormy. times. 81 know
witness who saw one of the crew
knocked down on board yesterday" he
said. "These men cannot come ashore
even to see their consul, and they can
not get letter to him. The last time
she was here the crew tried to make
complaints to the consul and gave an
officer a letter asking him to mail 1t
for them, but it never got to u.s.

ON THE LIST
THE FORMER SECRETARY JOINS
THOSE INVESTIGATING NEW
NUUANU DAM CONTRACT.

The latest applicant for copies of
the plans and specifications for the
completion of the Nuuanu dam and
reservoir, is A. l.. c. Atkinson, who
took out set from the Department
of Public Works Office this morning,
but without stating whom he repre-
sents in the matter. The prospect OF
Our Jacks" going into the contract
ing business excited some little inter-
est among those conversant with the
facts.
There have now been eight sets OF
specifications taken out, and Superin-
tendent Campbell hopes that most OF
them will be returned with tenders for
doing the work. One set was some
days ago sent to San Francisco where
they will be open for inspection and
bids at Marston Campbells engineer
ing offices in chance that some Coast
contractors may desire to submit bids.
The matter mas also been advertised
on the Coast.
Besides Mr.. Atkinson, the following
contractors are presumably figuring on
the job: c. S. Holloway E. P. Cha
pin, L. M. Whitehouse, j. Belser, C..
Smith and A. A. Wilson.

OF THE
TWO ESCAPES
PRISONERS WHO GOT AWAY
BOTH BELIEVED TO BE DAN
GEROUS CHARACTERS.

Officers are not on the trail of Juan
Rodrigues and Francisco Lopez, the
two Jail birds who escaped from the
Oahu prison a week or more ago by
cutting out two bars from the window
of their cells by means of outside as
sistance. AS was expected their move
ments have begun to show through
robberies they are committing. High
Sheriff Henry has received word from
near Aiea that they stole a lot OF
blankets and some cooking utensils
from some Japs on the plantation
there, and that they were seen ana
recognized
The High Sheriff believes that both
are dangerous characters and has sent
word to the officers who are searching
for them to take no chances in cap
turing them, as it is believed that they
are armed and would, in all probable
ity, use their weapons if given a
chance to avoid recapture.

The name of the new yacht

the coming trans-Pacific race will be
Hawaii" One of the committee stat
ed this morning that the order for
the yachts bell had gone up to the
Coast, and the name which had been
ordered placed on the bell is "Ha-
wall He also stated that it was the
present intention now to launch the
yacht on May 1.
1t has been nearly decided that the
masts will be stepped before she takes
the water and the yacht will be prac-
tically finished when she is launched.
A long letter was received from
Crowninshield in the last mail, stat
ing that he was anxious to have the
masts changed from solid to hollow.
Mclnerny stated this morning that ne
thought that the masts which arrived
Tuesday on the S. C. Allen would be
the ones used, as it would take too
much money to alter them now.
"As far as l am concerned" ne stat
ed, 81 do not agree with the idea of
having the yacht launched with the
masts in her, as she is very liable to
turn over when she reaches the water.
However that matter will be taken
care of later on. The donation from
the Pacific Mail S. s. Co. reached us
this morning, and will be placed to
the general fund"
