WAY TO coNNERsvILLE TO GET
FUNDS TO PAY INDEBTEDNESS.

Despite the fact that Earl Monroe
vigorously denied the charge that he
intended to beat Mrs. Mary Lewis out
of a board bill, and with tears inform
ed the court that if he was sent to Jail
his wife who lives in Connersville
would leave him, Judge Converse as
sessed a fine of $50 and costs. With
tears in his eyes the young man was
led to Jail.
Monroe was captured Wednesday
night near Centerville after leading 10
cal policemen al exciting chase. He
explained his fight his morning in
the city court by saying he was anx
ious to get to Connersville so as to get
some money to pay off his board bill.
Don't send me to Jail. Your Honor.
Let me go 81 that can prove that I
am an honest man. All l ask of you
is a u a DEAL" he pleaded.
Monroe stated he had gone to on
n~ersville Tuesday afternoon to see his
wife. He said she was mad at him
and he wanted to calm her angry pas
sions. She is just a young girl and I
give her most Of my money because
she likes to dress we'll"
"Why didn't you bring some of that
money back with you Wednesday to
pay your board bill?" asked the prose
cutor. Monroe stated he didn't want
to tell his wife he owed any money
here. But when I started back to
Connersville Wednesday l intended to
get some money and bring it back to
Richmond to pay my debts" Monroe
was unable to explain why he had TAX
en- all his clothes with him Wednes-
day and had left them with a farmer
who was a total stranger to him.

On any day, in order that his master,

measure of profit. The brewery cor
poration, the brewer himself or some
paid agent executes the bond requir-
ed of the licensee, and he is given to
understand that he must conduct the
place turned over to him at a profit

the law without substantial risk. If
he is prosecuted, he is defended If
he is fined, his fine is paid. His place

experience and this the testimony of
every city that has become the victim
of the mob or whose laws have been

Those in control of these places are
concerned about nothing but profits

these they multiply saloons, plant
them in residential districts ard es-

this is especially true.
The independent retail dealer, own
er of his place of business and respon-
sible to the community where he does
business and in which he lives. is
fast becoming a memory. He has al
most ceased to be. More than IS
per cent of the places where liquors
are sold at retail to be drunk on the
premises where sold, are owned or
controlled by brewery corporations,
whose directors and officers live out
of the vicinity where the business is
carried on and who have nc interest
or identity with the people of such
communities. Many Of them live in
palatial residences in fashionable
quarters in the larger cities of the
state, far removed from the scenes of
the barrooms they maintain.
These men, acting through the legal
fiction called a corporation, buy or
rent the buildings where the business
is conducted. They own the fixtures.
They furnish the liquors. They pay
the license fee. Where taxes are paid,
they pay them. The law inhibits the
issuing of a license to a corporation.
To evade this license is taken in the

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-07-27

WASHINGTON, July 13.-There is
every disposition on the part of the,
Administration to believe that the Jap
anese Government is faithfully trying
to live up to it's agreement to issue no
passports to Japanese laborers to come
to the United States.
1t was found by the agents of the
government that some of the Japanese
who come to this country as members
of the exempt classes eventually turned
up in mental occupations, and there en-
sued correspondence between the two
governments as to what constituted la
borers. Japan, it is understood, has
accepted the definition of laborer sub
mitted by the State Department, but in
the meantime there seems to be no
way to deport those pseudo merchants,
students and others who got into this
went to work as laborers, and the only
hope is that the Japanese government
will henceforth cause even greater eau
ton to be exercised in issuing pass
ports. In the meantime all immigrants
will be under surveillance by the gov
eminent agents in order that it may
be known what becomes of them after
they come to this country.
The report for the fiscal year just
closed is not yet out, but taking the
twelve months ending May 80, 1908,
and comparing that period with the
twelve months ending May 80, 1907,
and it is seen that the immigration for
the latter period to Hawaii and the
United States from Japan amounted to
30,435 as compared with 1855 for the
| former period. When the incoming

CHINESE BOYCOTT
HAS ONLY BEGUN
That's What Baron Utsumi IF Toxic
and Other Arrivals From
Orient Declare.
EVEN COAL IMPORTATION ENDS.
Deposits In Flowery Kingdom 70 Be
Opened-Match Factories
Are Planned.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.-Pas-
sengers who arrived yesterday on the
steamer Korea from the Orient say
the boycott of the Chinese against
everything Japanese has scarcely be-
gun. Steamship lines owned by the
Japanese are apparently the greatest
sufferers, but the ramifcations of the
great boycott extend to all kinds Of
commerce throughout the length of
the coast and are growing toward the
interior of the Flowery Kingdom. The
movement will have one great result,
say the observers who have returned
from the Far East land that will be
the opening up and development of
some of Chinas greatest natural re-
sources.
United States Consul Leo Allen
Bergholtz from Canton, Baron Katsu-
il Utsumi of Toxic, Missionary Alfred
ALI from Canton and S. Silverstone,
Pacific Mail agent at Hongkong, were
among those who spoke of the boy
colt, though some of them spoke more
freely than the others. All admitted
| that it has become serious. Baron Ut
sunni, who is the son of the late Tada-
katsu Utsumi, Minister for Home At
fairs in Japan, is young man on his
way to attend school at Fitchburg,
Mass. He is accompanied by Profess
sor F. A. Shattuck who is an instruc-
tor in the Keiojigulu University OF
Toxic where there is an attendance
of 5000 students.
''The steamship business of the
Japanese has been already practically
ruined" says the passenger. THE
matches used by Chinese have hereto
fore come from Japan, where they
were manufactured by Chinese labor
and now the Chinese at Canton are
preparing to open their own match fac,
tories on a great scale. It will be the
last of matches from Japan for the
great empire when the Cantonese be

WASHINGTON, July 13.-At a meet
ing of the immigration Commission in
New York last Saturday it was agreed
that Professor w. @. Mitchell in charge
of the immigration work on the Pacific
Coast, with headquarters in San Fran
cisco, should be authorized to employ
twenty additional men for field work.
Part of these are already on the rolls
and the balance will probably be Sc
lected from among the many appli--
cants who have already filed requests
for employment.
Professor Mitchell reported progress
in the work assigned to him He is
looking up immigrants to this country
and ascertaining their sociological con-
dition. Some progress has been made
with the Italians, Mexicans, Russians,
and other nationalities in finding out
to what degree they are becoming as

MRS. LONGWORTH
IS CRITICISED
Kentucky Delegation at Prohibition
Convention Objects to
Inviting Her
ONE LONE WOMAN ACCUsER.
Delegation Says Presidents Daughter
Attends Races, Smokes, and
Puts Tacks in Chairs.

COLUMBUS. (Ohio), July 14.-In
caucus this afternoon the Kentucky
delegation to the National Prohibition
convention, which will open in Memo
rial Hall here tomorrow morning, re-
fused to invite Mrs. Alice Roosevelt
Longworth to attend the convention
as Kentuckys honored guest.
The reasons the delegates gave for
this action were:
First-That Mrs Longworth attend
ed the Lexington horse races and sat
besides Boss George B. Cox of Cincin-
natl. well-known man of the world.
Second-That she smokes cigarettes.
Third--She placed tack on a chair
in the gallery of the House at Wash
ington, causing much pain and annoy
ance to a diplomatic visitor.
Without consulting their fellow
members in the delegation, H. w.
Davis OF Louisville, T. P. Demaree of
Wilmore and H. s. d. Wright of Louis
vile took it upon themselves to write
to the daughter of President Roose-
welt and ask her to grace their con-
vention as she had the national con-
ventions of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties. They told her that
Kentucky would be delighted to act
as her host.
Not until this afternoon did the trio
make known their pleasant little secret
to the delegation as a whole. Prompt
ly and peremptoriy the motion was
voted down on the grounds already
stated In vain did Mr.. Demaree and
his two friends argue that the action
of the delegation might be construed
and accepted by President Roosevelt
as an insult to his daughter.
/ WOMAN STARTS OPPOSITION.
Mrs. Frances E. Beauchant, the only
woman member of the Prohibition Ma
tional Committee, was the delegate
from Kentucky who started the pro-
test against Mrs. Longworth,
"Of course" she said, AZ cannot
prove of my knowledge that the things
which have been said about Mrs Long
worth are true, but even though they
be gossip pure and simple, Kentucky
and the Prohibition party can afford
to take no chances"
When the doors are opened at Il
O'Clock tomorrow morning the con
, vention will be without a platform Of
any description. Up to 10 o'clock to-
night it was stated upon Trustworthy
, information that there are -7venteer
candidates for the presidential nomi
nation I'm the field.
