DEMOCRATIC HOPE sIDETRACKED
Taft and Foraker Shoulder to Shout
der for Republican Principles.

der for Republican Principles.
Another Democratic hope has been
sidetracked. That was that United
States Senator Foraker would not SUP.
port the Taft candidacy, and would
thus impair his chances of carrying the
State of Ohio.
The two big Ohioans fittingly met
at the G. A. r. reunion in Toledo, and
publicly and good-naturedly cast what
differences may have existed between
them to the air.
Mr.. Taft's contribution to the treaty
OF peace was as follows:
ut is pleasure for me to be here
with Senator Foraker, because When
governor Of Ohio he gave me my first
chance and took a good deal of risk in
putting man of 20 on the bench OF
the Superior Court of Cincinnati. We
are about to enter-or rather have ell.
tered-a great oratorical campaign. 1t
Is pleasure to think in this presence
that we are going to stand in tho
campaign shoulder to shoulder, with
the full strength Of the Republican
party"
In response Senator Foraker denied
that enmity had existed between Mr.
Taft and himself, and said:
Under the circumstances l hope
may be pardoned if l say here in this
presenee-the first time l have had
opportunity to say it-that there is not
now and SO far as l know there never
has been the slightest Ill feeling of any
kind between Mr.. Taft and myself.
III there is anything l have right
to claim beyond another, 1t is that l
am Republican three hundred and sixty
five days in the year. l have my pref
erences sometimes as to who should
receive the honors Of the party, and
everybody generally finds out what they
toned Republicans who settle every such
question at the convention. When the
Chicago convention nominated Mr.. Taft
TO he the Republican candidate for the
Presidency this year, that instant he
became my leader. He has been my
ieuueI ever SlIce, ana ne VIII De my
leader until the polls close on the night
of the election"
Mr. Foraker followed with an esti-
mate of Judge Taft's fitness for the
office he seeks by repeating what Bishop
Fallows had said before him.
II want to repeat It," he said, "that
his experience on the bench, In the
Philippines, as Secretary of War, In
the construction of the Panama Canal,
in all the positions he has filed, has
been such as to qualify Mr.. Taft al
most beyond every other man for the
Presidency. We are going to elect him,
and If he does not make a success OF
it, 1t will be his own fault"
Senator Foraker followed this state
ment with a review of his early ac-
quaintance with Judge Taft, and the
favorable impression he then gained of

throw them anywhere, he cared not
where, SO they freed her wholly from
Guy.
They were very becoming n. said. She
would not look as well without them; so
she ma d better wear them tonight, and
to-mor ow, if she would see him, he would
talk with her further.
1t was brilliant scene which Aiken
SIDE presented that night, and amid it all
Agnes bore herself like a queen: while
Jessie, with her sunny face and golden
hair, came in for full share of attention.
but amid the gay throng there was none
SO fair or so beautiful as Maddy, who de-
ported herself with as much ease and grace
as If she had all her lifelong been &C.
customed to just such occasions as this.
AT distance the doctor watched her, tell
ing several who she was, and once resent
ing by both look and manner a remark
made by Maria Cutler to the effect that
she was nobody but Mrs. Remington's
governess, poor girl whom Guy had tax
en- fancy to educate out of charity.
Breakfast over the next morning, the
two young men repaired to the library.
The doctor fdgeted for time, and then
broke out abruptly:
Il say, Guy, have you said anything
to her about-well, about me, you know 2"
why, no, I've hardly had chance !;
and then, again, l concluded it better for
each one to speak for himself" and Guy
leaned back in his chair.
Guy, II you were not engaged, should
be tempted to think you wanted Maddy
Clyde yourself" the doctor suddenly ex-
claimed, confronting Guy, who answered
with the most provoking GOODNESS, You
shouldw
Yes, l should; and 1 am not certain
but you do, as it is. Guy" and the doc
tor grew very earnest in his manner, ''if
you do care for Maddy Clyde, and she for
you, pray tell me so before make a fool
of myself"
Doctor" returned Guy, folding his
hands on his head, you desire that | be
frank, and l will l like Maddy Clyde
very much-more, indeed, than any girl
ever met-except Lucy. Had never
seen her-Lucy, | mean-I cannot tell
how l should feel toward Maddy. The
chances are, however, that much as
admire her, l should not make her my
wife, even if she were willing. But l
have seen Lucy. 1 am engaged to be
married. l shall keep that engagement
and If you have feared me at all as
rival, you may fear me no longer. l do
not stand between you and Maddy Clyde"
Guy believed that he was saying the
truth, notwithstanding that his heart
beat faster than its wont, and his voice
was little thick. 1t was doubtful wheth-
er he would marry Maddy Clyde, If he
could. BY nature and education he was
very proud. and the inmates Of the red
cottage would have been an obstacle to be
surmounted by his pride.
Il hear her now-I'il call her." he
said; and. on opening the door, he spoke
to Maddy, just passing through the hall
DIR. Holbrook wishes to see you," he
said, as Maddy came up to him and hold
ing the door for her to enter, he saw
her take the seat he had just vacated.
Then closing it upon them, he walked
away, thinking that last nights party,
or something, had produced bad effect
on him, making him blue and wretched,
just as he should suppose criminal
would feel when about to be executed.

CHAPTER XVI.

Now that they were alone, the doctors
courage forsook him and he could only
stammer out some commonplace remarks
| about the party, asking how Maddy had
| enjoyed it. He was not getting on at all,
and 1t was impossible for him to say any,
thing as he had meant to say it. Why
couldn't she help him, instead of looking
so unsuspciously at him with those large,
bright eyes?
At last she came to his aid by saying,
you promised to tell me about the brac
let's and necklace, whether ought to keen
them"
"Yes, oh, yes, he believed he did" And
getting up from his chair, the doctor be-
gan to walk the floor, the better to hide
his confusion. "Yes, the bracelets. You
looked very pretty in them, Maddy, very
but you are always pretty-ahem--yes

And stopping suddenly, he confronted the
astonished Maddy, who replied:

She could In no other way account for
his strange conduct, and she sat staring
at him while he continued. ~ told YOU

CHINESE GAMBLERS.

Pauoa Valley was nearly depopulat-

afternoon by the police who made a
raid on a paikau game which was in
progress and being enjoyed by about
twenty players who were nearly all
captured after an exciting chase over
the taro patches and through the gull
lies of the district. They were lberat-
ed on the payment of bail in the sum
of ten dollars each and will appear for
trial in the District Court this morn
ing.
The usual quiet of the Punahou dis
trict was broken early yesterday mcrn-
ing by a raid headed by Detective Leaf
on the Chinese house on Alexander
street below the College pump which
has been under suspicion for some
time. Seven pakapio players were
rounded up and taken TO the pollce
station where they remained until bail

AUTO TRUCKS
FOR PAL|
TRAFFIC
Plan in Connection With
Koolau Region De-
velopment.

A proposition to form a company to
handle freight between Koolau and
Honolulu by means of gasolene trucks
is being talked over by some of those
interested in the development of the
other side of the island The use of
these new conveyances, it is thought,
would serve the public better than a
steamer and be a great improvement
over the present stage arrangements
for both freight and passengers The
cost of running a steamer would be a
very large item In the handling IF
freight, while trucks could be handled
much more cheaply and give better sat
isfaction. Besides hauling freight they
can be so constructed that they can be
converted into passenger carrying ears
by removing the body of the freight
car and putting another one in its
place for passengers. L. G. Kellogg is
back of the scheme.

CHICAGO CONVENTION
ON WATER WAGON

CHICAGO, May 16.-The subcommit-
tee on arrangements of the Republican
National Committee passed a rule
which puts the Coliseum, where the
convention is to be held, in the prohf-
bition column. 1t declares that NO
liquor shah be sold, received or
brought into the convention hall,
either at the committee meetings or
during the convention week.
The committee also placed a ban on
portraits as adornments for the walls
of the hall, and the decorations, ac-
cording to the present plan. will be
confined to flags and bunting. The
reason given for the latter prohibition
was the number of favorite sons whose
pictures delegates might insist upon
having placed and the jealousies and
friction that might grow out of the
placing of them.
The committee also decided to au-
thorize Chairman New to arrange for
a parade of the marching clubs which
are expected from all parts of the
United States.
