 Soon Reach IS Gents.

meeting of the executive committee of the Farmers Cooperative and Educa- tional union and the directors of the Cot ton union has been called for next Tues day in Birmingham by President Duncan.
 Col J. M. Thornton who is in charge of the cotton exchange. which has been established at the union headquarters here. stated yesterday that the officials of the union were feeling gratified over the way cotton was continuing its steady advance. He denied that this advance had been caused by Suly or any of the other spectators, but attributes it to the way the members of the Farmers' union are sticking to their pledge not 10 sell under 15 cents.
 According to Colonel Thornton but very few bales of cotton are being sold now even at the price of ss12 cents, which has been bid on some of the cotton. He states that the only cotton sold was dis posed of because of absolute necessity on the farmers part, despite the fact that the price is now over ? cents higher than 1t was during the first part of the season. He firmly believes cotton will reach the 15-cent mark within a very short while.

The County Beacon, organ of the

reported that arrangements may be
made whereby it will continue. The

the reason for quitting, it says: with
the retirement of w. A. Kinney from

new Territorial Committee, whether or
not to continue the paper, and it has
been concluded not to do so, but to dis

1T is claimed by some that there are
differences in the party. I can observe
none that are worth considering or
naming as such. The party is not split

that the fact that emigration, especial

GOVERNOR
TRANSIT COMPANY TAKES NEW VIEW OF THE STREET
CAR SCHEDULE MATTER--A OPINION UNDER WHICH
THE EXECUTIVE REGULATES SCHEDULES RECENI
DECISION is

The Rapid Transit Company pro-
poses to put it up to the Governor as
TO the schedule which snail be main
tained on different branches of the
Company's lines. 1t is possibly expect
ed that in this way the matter of the
insistance of the, Kaimuki and Wal
alae people for a ten-minute service
may be settled.
President l.. Tenney Peck, of the
Company, yesterday addressed a let
ter to the Governor advising him OF
the schedule established and put into
effect last Sunday on the Hotel street
line, which as announced is a change
only in that the cars no longer run on
Lillha street, but stop at Aala Park.
A blank line is left at the bottom or
the Governors approval.
This letter is the result Of discov-
cry that the charter of the Company
provides that the schedule of running
cars on any particular street shall be
announced and established after the
approval of the Governor of the Ter.
ritory. Toe Company holds that the
grounds on which the Liliha street
people took the matter into the courts

the faithful, united and hearty support
of Mr. Ingham, my successor, and OF
each and every member of the New
Territorial Central Committee. Their
task is difficult one, and involves any
amount of labor and sacrifice, much or
which has to be rendered without rec
ognition or reward of any kind, except
the reward of doing ones duty as a
citizen of this territory.
"The party has a good deal to be
proud of. We all know how elections
were being conducted by the party in
power since annexation until the Dem
ocrats took hold; we know that the
use of coercion and other discreditable
methods at the ballot boxes were fast
becoming the rule. The Home Rule
party, against which these disCredit-
able methods were first used, seemed
helpless to cope with the evil, and it
was not until the Democratic party
took hold of the issue that the atmos-
phere was cleared and matters set
reasonably right, so that today we can
hold and have a reasonably honest
election in this Territory. Our pro-
test to Washington against the frauds
practiced when IaukSa ran as Dele
gate for Congress while decided against
us, was, in fact, a moral victory for
us, and each and every voter in this
-
now go to the ballot box and vote with
practical freedom from tric5ery, cor
ruption and coercion. This result was
due entirely to the Democratic con-
test. Congress acquitted the Repub-
lican party of this Territory from the
charges but told them on the side not
to do 1t again
