The Moberly Democrat COM
ments as follows:
A beer bottle was the gavel at
the republican banquet Saturd ay
night in st. Louis. When the
chairman had broken his own emp
ty bottle he used Hadley's to Sc
cure order. The brewers were at
the meeting in force with Otto Stitel
as their principal spokesman. He
was loud and strong in his advoca-
cy OF the Kansas republican be aud
the other brewers had elected.
II the brewers are so fond of ka n.
sas republicans, we think it time
to give the brewers the Kansas
laws in Missouri. While we are
not a believer in prohibitOry laws,
yet we are willing to set aside our
conviction for once and give the
potbellied, bull headed, vote bu ying
brewers full measure of what
they voted for aud a few extras
thrown in. Do as the Kansas re.
publicans did. Pour their beer in
the sewers, confscate their plants 4.
but instead of throwing them in
Jail hang the whole bunch of hooze
manufacturers. They have been the
bane of politics in eve-y state, and
the corrupting influence that has
been daming wherever they lent are
forced their aid. Prohibition will
be a vital issue during this admin
istration, and if there is no other
way of putting the brewers out of
politics, then there is a way of put
ting them ont of business for all
time. The st. Louis brewers are
now feeling secure under their gov.
ernor.elect from Kansas, but be-
fore two years have rolled around
these arrogant bull. dozers will wish
they had not been so Jealous in
endorsing Kansas repdblicanism
Give them the full benefit of what
they voted for is the duty of demo.

H|LOAIAN STOWAMAYS
DUMPED At kOKO HEAD

SAN FRANCISCO, June 25.--The
steamship Hilonian, Captain Peter
johnson, which arrived yesterday af
ternoon from Honolulu, will be un.
popular after this with stowaways. In
some countries the man who steals OF
tries to steal a passage on any steam.
ship is treated like any other thief. In
this country, however, it is all up to
the steamship company, and If the
stowaway happens to be an undesir-
able alien the steamship company must
take him back to the port of his en-.
barkation, If the stowaway is an
American citizen, and is discovered
when the ship is too far on it's way to
return and land him, he gets free
passage For this reason stowaways
give most of their patronage to Amer
lean ships.
As the Hilonian was passing out of
Honolulu harbor three Porto Rican
stowaways appeared on deck and said
they were going to San Francisco. Cap
tain Johnson could have landed them
then, but decided that little walk
would do them no harm and might dis.
courage future attempts.
The Hilonian stopped off Koko Head,
boat was lowered, and the three
stowaways were put ashore. Where
they were landed is stiff twenty-mile
walk to Honolulu around steep hill
side literally strown with chunks OF
lava. 1t was blazing hot day, and
when last seen the three Porto Ricans
were making slow and painful progress
The Hilonian was eight days coming
from the island port, and encountered
fine weather all the way. The cargo
included 1900 crates of fresh pine
apples, the largest single shipment ever
brought from the islands. Under the
care of L. G. Kellogg, a Hawaiian pine
apple planter, the bulk of this ship
ment will be marketed as far east as
Chicago.

GOOD PROSPECTS FOR
HAWAIIAN TOBACCO

In an organ of the tobacco trade,
John w. Merriam Of New York City,
who has been travelling for tobacco
firm says:
Hawaii, our new possession, is real
ly going to be big acquisition to the
cigar industry Of the United States.
They are going to raise some extremely
good tobacco over there within the
next few years. The government has
been trying lot of experiments. Whls,
there l went out to the experimental
station, which is in charge of COM
missioner They have really grown
little exceptionally good tobacco over
there. OF course it is all in an expert
mental stage as yet, and there is not
enough tobacco to be worth while for
anybody to buy or attempt to do any
thing with. They grew, perhaps, few
hundred pounds of tobacco, which was
supplied as it was raised to few cigar
manufacturers who made up smokers
from it.
"Hawaii is growing country, ana
it is an extremely rich one. Land that
was worth but from $2 to So an aero
from three to five years ago, is now
worth from 5000 to $500 an acre, SO it
is easy to see where real estate invest
ors have done WELL
"The best pineapples in the world
are raised in the vicinity of Honolulu,
and that industry is largely instrument
tai in the raising of land values. The
range for development in Hawaii N
vast"
