White House Courtesy

If any president of modern times were
70 exhibit the official indecency that
John Adams exhibited when Jefferson
became president; he would be denounc-
cd by every reputable newspaper and
intelligent citizen of the land. 1t was
then, as it is now, the acceptsd duty of
the retiring president to receive the in
coming president at the white house and
accompany him to the inauguration
ceremonies, but the last official act of
Adams as president was the nomination
of Il number Of what were called mid
night Judges" the night before the in
aCguration of Jefferson, and during the
night he and his family withdrew from
the white house, leaving none but the
servants to receive the incoming presi-
dent, writes Alexander K. Mcclure in
the Circle
1t was President Polk who first had
tie courage to disregard the political
passions of the times by inviting Henry
Cay, who had been his competitor, to
dine with him and Mrs. Polk in the
white house. vt was near the close of
the Polk administration, during which
Cay had been senator most of the
time, and it shocked the democratic
:. ntiment of the time when it was an
Ii Dunced that Clay had dined with Presi
INT Polk, not on n state occasion, but
hal been welcomed at the family din
r"r as friend. Clay was the. soul of
cnivalry and Polk was IL man of I'M
Ecmished character and high attain
r,rnts, and his example of courtesy to
lay has never since been broken.

INIQUITY OF TARIFF LAW

Do You known that the steel trust,
the Standard Oil trust, the beef trust,
the coal trust, the sugar trust, the
leather trust, the wire trust, the con-
densed milk trust, the tin trust, the
chemical trust, the watch trust, the
powder trust, the bag trust, the loco
motive trust, the typewriter trust, and
many other trusts and manufacturers
when they export their products are
allowed under the provisions of the
tariff law drawback of 80 per cent of
the tariff duty they have paid on any
material that has entered into the
manufacture of their products exported?
Last year the amount of drawback
refunded by the government to the
trusts and manufacturers was So, 445,-
150.01 SO the trusts were refunded
that amount of duty on what they
sold abroad, but charged the full price
tariff protection allowed them to charge
10 the consumers of the United States,
though selling much cheaper abroad
shan ut home.
This is one of the small tariff steals
that the republican leaders and the
trusts cooked I'D between them.
The steel trust and other trusts do
not need more than 80 Der cent of the
present tariff duty to protect them from
the competition of foreign products.
and yet the republican party has re-

But you don't understand quite how
you are plundcrcd, do You? The re-
funding of drawback is one of the plans

foreigners, and have to pay the tariff

who so lavishly entertained, while here,
the representative of the Examiner, AL

most prominent figure among a bunch
of distinguished local men who wished
the commercial party God-speed.
There were leis in abundance at the
departure of the Tenyo Maru; leis for
wives of the members of the CONNER
cial expedition and leis for many 9TH
ers besides.
Very significant in the list OF de-
partures was a detachment of Japanese
women in the steerage.
Out of 1870 Japanese who were leav-
ing here, there were almost eighty wo-
men, and most of them were married
women. Why it is at this time that
there happen to be more than half of
number of departing Japanese who are
women is a mystery that is difficult
of solution.
Those among the Japanese who were
leaving and who could talk English had
no solution to hand and there seemed
to be no explanation.
1t may be noted, as an interesting
item of the Tenyos cargo, that she
took from Honolulu one million dol
lars in gold for deposit in Japan,
money sent hence by Japanese.
There are all kinds of rumors in re-
gard to the large and unsuual number
of women, Japanese women, leaving
here and one is that Japanese husbands
in this. city are anxious to see their
wives safe in their own country for the
reason that they anticipate trouble here
before Christmas; that they want to
know that their wives are out of range
of shot and shell.

DIVORCE

HEARTY ROAST FROM BENCH
FOR FAMILY.

been before Judge Lindsay for the
past three days was completed today, I
the Judge granting the cross libel filed
by the husband, who was represented |
by Attorney John Cathcart, but plac-
ing the children in the custody of the
mother. He explained his reasons for
this decision as follows:
"This is a case that would need
Solomon with all his wisdom to come
to a really just and proper verdict up
on. / am frank to confess l am very
much in doubts just what my deci-
sion should be,-not my decision upon
divorce question, but as to the care
and custody of these children 1t is
said that once upon a time Burns was
walking in the country and he was
entertained over night in a house,
and the inmates of this house were
such fine family, father and mother,
brothers and sisters, that the poet
was very much impressed, and be-
/ fore he went in the morning he left
souvenir of the kindness shown him,
| by writing poem, expressing the
hope that after their lives were over
they would all be united In heaven.
He certainly was not thinking of this
family, for l don't think | ever had
occasion to try case where all the
with the same brush. 1t has been dis
! graceful, and disgusting to listen to
the case, and have the father and
brothers tell of their sisters shame
and disgrace. l don't want Mr.. Will
to think in saying this that 1 have
any great respect for his conduct, to
say the least it has been very poor.
We have no showing at all of his try
ing to keep his wife straight, of try
ing to do the right thing for his wife.
1t is a pretty poor outfit, the whole
lot, and as l say, in the matter of di-
vorce alone l would not have very
much hesitancy in granting. 1t is

about. don't think that Mr. Will

HWhether l come back this way or
not 1 do not know. l may return to

Siberian railway; 1 may go home by
way Of Europe, but the next time pass
through Honolulu intend to take in

more of Pearl Harbor than I learned
when | made the trip with the official
forcibly than anything else was the
meager information l received in re-
gard to Pearl Harbor OF! yesterdays
trip. it seemed to me that there was
a purpose in the fact that little or
nothing in he way of information was
given cut in regard to Pearl Harbor.
There's another thing of which
wish to learn more, and that is in re-
gard to the so-called immortality of Ho-
nolulu. l learned while here from a
man by the name of Thwing that Ho-
nolulu was one of the most wicked
towns ON the face of the earth. Now,
to look at it, one would not suppose
such to be the case; but nevertheless
Mr.. Thwing, l believe he is some kind
of a preacher, stated to me in all Sc
riousness, that this city was worse
than New York or Chicago, in proper
ton to it's size, in the matter of mo-
rality. Well, we got in here yester-
day morning and we are sailing at 1C
o'clock this morning for the Orient and
to verify what this Mr.. Thwing has
said. 1 consider Honolulu one of the
most moral towns l have ever visited

this as a word of friendship in a city

ceived the most cordial reception. AnC

Republican party as an organization

who think for themselves.
ut is important that more attention
should be given to the issues. The
platform of our party sets forth poll
cies of importance. To carry them out
in the legislature and elsewhere, 1t is
necessary to elect men who are COM
