SANE OLD STORY.

The abusive morning paper now
tags the Il IN | Q IT, n as the Brewery
organ.
II the B lletin had written the
letter which Theodore Richards wrote
to Senator Coelho In the cause Of Lo-
cal Option. 1t would possibly have
been highly moral. But We are hap
by to say the Bull letin Is not In
the business OF moralizing by letters
of such character.
II the bulletin were to sug-
gest that although q railroad fire.
quently kills men, women, and chill
dren, 1t should receive common jus.
tice at the hands of the people. the
Morning Calf-Tender would probably
say "B-a-a, the railroad organ"
II the Bulletin were to suggest
that the program Of the Local Op.
tionists as talked by the radicals pre-
sumes that the option operates only
one way, the truth would and does
make the organ OF prejudice and
abuse unhappy.
1t was ever thus.
II the ulletin were to sug-
gest that the Advertiser is honest,
the response would be something like

more harm than good" This. when
the development Of Pearl Harbor

the present large industries, and
which 1t is the hope of all may be
corrected.
We are pleased that Mr.. Garfield
Is here to see for himself.

TAFT FOR PRESIDENT.

The nomination Of Secretary Taft
has been SO long assured that the
actual fact comes as one o. the incl
dents in the natural course Of
events.
From Hawaii's standpoint the
nomination OF Mr.. Taft Is victory
for big Americanism."
We shall have a man at the head
Of the Nation who knows the size OF
the Nation by intimate acquaintance
with its farthest outposts. He un-
derstands the situation in the Pa
cific, where the future Of the coun-
try is fraught with great possible
ties.
He is the type Of man who salts
fes the present-day demand Of broad
minded leadership. He is big
American" and mighty good one.
