CRUMPACKERs ADDED JOKER.
On Seeing The Intent of The Amend

Opposed Bill.

WASHINGTON, May ga cam
paign contribution publicity bill, en-
bodying an amendment by Crumpacker
of Indiana, providing for a reduction
in the representation in the house Of
representatives in those states having
Acknowledgement laws, was passed by
the house today by a vote of 100 to
125, following a lively debate.
The measure was brought up under
suspension of the rules and 40 minutes
were allowed in which to discuss it.
The southern members in particular,
were bitter in their denunciation of
the apportionment provision of the bill
Williams, the minority leader, was es-
pecially vigorous in mis- attack, char
acterizing the bill as an attempt to re-
vive the conditions Of reconstruction
days.
After the Crumpacker amendment
the democrats voted against the bill in
it's entirety. In brief the provisions
regarding publicity of campaign con
tributlons is made applicable to the ma
tional committees and the national
congressional campaign committees OF
all political parties, and all commit

NEW YORK, May 6.-Spiritualism

James H. Hyslop, head of the Society
for Psychical Research, made public
an exposure of the famous camp at
Lily Dale, N. Y, where hundreds of
prominent people have gone to mold

Darlington spent two weeks at Lily
Dale in disguise, living with alleged

HAWAII COMPARED
WITH PORTO RICO
VISITING SUGAR PLANTER FROM INDIAN POSSESSION
TELLS OF ADVANTAGES IRRIGATION, LABOR MARKET
FACILITIES RICAN INDUSTRY POSSESSES SEES
MoLAssEs

LIHUE, May 3O.-Mr. M. T. Miller
of Guanica, Porto Rico, is paying Ha-
wall one of his periodical visits in or
der to see what innovations the local
planters have adopted since mis- last
trip to the Paradise of the Pacific.
Il have not been down here for four
years, said Mr.. Miller and quite a
few changes have taken place in That
time. More than you would probably
notice who get them gradually l have
just been over to Makaweli and seen
their new mill 1t is admirable both
as to it's machinery and the arrange
ment. l have had pleasant visit with
Mr.. Stodart at McBryde and noted all
the improvements this go-ahead cor
poration have installed since l last
visited the place. Their electric pump
ing plants have been a great thing for
the place and will be more.
And right in this respect is where
we have got the best of you in Porto
hico," remarked Mr.. Miller. Our ir-
rigation does not cost us any such
sums as your Hawaiian plantations as
rule have to expend for that part OF
the cultivation. Our water is all on
the top. No shafts to sink to get at
the precious sine qua non. And the
pumps haven't got to lift it many Ieet
either as the cane lands do not rise
like your fields
Then we nave other advantages
over you. The cost of marketing our
sugar is so much less than what your
product has got to bear $3.50 to SO is
| all it costs us to land our sugar IN New
| YORK or Philadelphia, while you have
to pay from SIS to q15 to get yours
there the little that is sold to Frisco
Of course excepted
Again we have a plentiful supply Of
cheap, reliable labor. No need tC
spend large amounts OF money to look
up men to till our fields and later tC
transport them here. We have then
right at our doors, and a good class Of
labor they constitute. You must moi
judge the ability of the average Porto
Rican from what you have seen o.
them here What you got was col
lection of the toughest good-for-noth
ings that infested our island. The av
erage Porto Rican puts in a fai
amount of working days each montl
and performs a great deal more during
the time they are at work than you
Japanese or Koreans do. Then agail
they are very easily handled and caus
us very little trouble.
I'VE do not have to pay our laborer'
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-06-02

as much as you do either. Nowhere on
Porto Rico does he get more than $15
a month, but then he has not got to
pay out any such living expenses as
all have to do here.
"All these items and some more
make sugar growing profitable on our
island, at least as long as we can keep
Cuban sugar from coming in free. II
that ever happens both we and you
may close down because it is absolute
ly impossible to compete with a COun-
try that can produce sugar with profit
at cost that is seventy per cent lower
than the cheapest you can manage to
drive it down to.
Il have often wondered how il is
that all your practical planters are so
wasteful. They let thousands upon
thousands of dollars run 70 sea every
month, when both Liverpool, New
York and London are in the market
for molasses. We have ours contract
ed to a New York firm for four cents a
gallon and tank steamers take off at
least three thousand barrels each
month. That it pays the buyers you
may judge from the fact that when
they found themselves unable to char
ter any tank steamers this winter and
we cabled them that, unless they sent
vessels to take the stuff, we would
have to let it run to sea at their ex-
pense, they sent down two four-masted
schooners loaded with barrel materials
and an army of coopers, When the
goods can stand such an expense not
to speak of the fact that they had tc
build a pontOOn and haul the barrels
out to the vessel that way because
there was no room at our wharf, then
they can also bear the additional
freight from here.
"All the smaller plantations that
have to pump their irrigation water
utilize their own molasses, however
They have all stills and manufacture
the alcohol they need for running theil
pumping plants. The surplus is made
into rum that finds an easy market
The average cost of fuel alcohol to thu
planter in Porto Rico is about si1
cents. The rum he can produce a
about fifteen to twenty cents. Afte
paying the government ninety cent
internal revenue, he can sell it for tw,
dollars a gallon wholesale.
There are a few things in whic
you are ahead of us" concluded MI
Miller, but then we make up for it il
many ways and the final result to tn
stakeholder l think is a shade bette
with us"-The Garden Island.

OPENS BID FOR
SUPPLY DEPOT
NEW YORK CONTRACTOR THE
LOWEST BIDDER IN ESTIMATE
FOR TRANSPORT STATION.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-Another
of the $2,OOO,OOO Army supply depot at
Fort Mason was taken this week in
the receipt of bids in San Francisco for
the construction of seawall, sea crib
wall, transport wharves and sheds.
The bids were opened by Major George
NICK. Williamson, Quartermaster's de-
partment, who will be in charge of the
construction of the station.
The lowest bid on the entire project
was that of the P. j. Carlin Construc-
ton Company of New York city, and
was $1,17S,OO0 according to the plans
and specifications prepared by the
Government The same bidder also
made an alternate proposal on plans
prepared by himself, representing
notifications of the Government speci-
fications, $1,O9S 900.
This Army supply depot at Fort Ma
son will be distinctive in its character
and will be the principal shipping
point from the United States for the
Philippines. Provision will be made
for extending railway tracks to the
wharves, so as to facilitate the transfer
of supplies between cars and trans
ports. There will be storehouses tc
accommodate supplies of the different
departments and extensive acc6mmo-
dations for sheltering troops awaiting
transportation.

fluence the result, or attempt to in
iuence the result, of an election in
which representatives in congress are
TO be elected.
The Crumpacker amendment pro-
vides for re-enactment Of certain pro-
visions of the Old federal election law
except that the idea of the unenacted
force bill, authorizing the use of
troops at the polls, is eliminated 1t
also provides that the director of the
census shall submit to congress a re-
port of population, showing the num-
Der of male citizens, white and black,
in each state and the number disfran-
chised, for the purpose of enabling
congress to ascertain the apportion-
ment to which states may be entitled.
Although the Crumpacker amendment
does not in express terms say that
1t is applicable to the southern states,

fact.

Why
IS NT1DOD PORCH
NOOON SHADES
Are Needed

You need Vudor Porch Shades to get
the most out of your porch.
To make it a spot where you can
rest or work on the hottest days-out-
doors, yet free from the suns glare and
heat
You can do this with Vudor Porch
Shades; you can add to the house an
other room, cool and shady, where you
may enjoy every refreshing breeze, in
secluded comfort
Vudor Porch Shades are very dur
able, and Will last many seasons.
Another good feature about them Is
the peculiar fact that those sitting on
the porch can see out, but passersby
cannot see in. In other words, you
have complete privacy, and can use
the porch or veranda the same as an
inside room, with infinitely more com
fort on hot days
Vudor Porch Shades are just the
thing for boxing in porches or bal
comics that are to be used as outdoor
sleeping or living apartments.
Vudor Porch Shades are made OF
thin, fiat strips of Linden Wood, close
ly bound by strong Seine Irvine, in a
lock-stitch weave.
They are artistically stained in soft,
pleasing colors. These colors are

TWELVE CHINESE
DEAD IN BOXES
Latest Move of the El Paso Snug
glers Said To Be
Disastrous.
GRUEsoME FIND IN NEW YORK
Difficulty In Probing the Extensive
New Conspiracy to Violate
the Law

WASHINGTON, May 25.-The lmmi-
grafton Bureau is considerably exer-
cised over a sensational report which
reached it today, to the effect that
twelve Chinese were shipped in as
many boxes from FL Paso to New
York, in an effort to smuggle them
into the United States, and that when
the boxes were opened in New York
every one of the twelve was dead. The
report is so circumstantial that it can
not be ignored, and every effort Is be-
ing made to ascertain its truth or
falsity.
The existence of a ring engaged in
smuggling Chinese into this country
has been known for years, and it's
operations have been so closely watch
ed that of late the officials of the i'm
migration service have, freely predict
ed that the illegal traffic must cease
unless new measures for evadng the
law were discovered
TWELVE DEAD CHINESE.
F. w. Berkshire, supervising inspec-
tor at San Antonio, Tex, has notified
Commissioners General of immigration
Sargent of a report that twelve Chi
nese were smuggled into the country
in boxes as stated. He received his
information from the inspector in
charge at El Paso, who in turn was
told of it by the official Interpreter,
Fung Ming, who got the story bit by
bit in the Chinese quarter and finally
satisfied himself that it was true
AS a result of the fiasco, FL Paso's
Chinatown was in ferment of excite
ment on the evening of May 18th,
when a telegram was received of when
the following is aid to be the exact
wording:
NEW YORK, May Is, 19OS.-Twelve

spiracy. The immigration officials i'm
mediately undertook to find out wheth
err any such consignment had beef
made from Eel Paso to the big Cnines
firm in New York, and the inspecto
in charge in New York was instructe,
to institute a rigid inquiry in Ney
York as to whether the shipment ha,
been received there, whether the Chi
nese had arrived dead as reported, anC
if so what disposition had been mad,
of the corpses. No definite information
seems to have been received as the re
suit of this search and Commissioner
General Sargent issued orders today
for a special agent to proceed at one,
to New York and probe the TumOr tt

advices, this first attempt, if it be tn

HOT CONTEST PROMISED
FOR KENTUCKY SENATOR.
Disaffection Among Democrats May De-
feat Beckham-Bradley Is Re-
publican Candidate,

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. Politics in
Kentucky, proverbially tumultuous and un-
certain, promise TO furnish a spectacular
senatorial contest. The opening of the
legislative sessions today found the Demo-
Gratis severely shaken by the late election
and with numerous rumors of disaffection
In their camp. Nevertheless, they have a
majority of eight on joint ballot, and the
managers of former Governor J. c.. w.
Beckham, who was nominated at a pri-
mary eighteen months ago. claim that he
will be elected Senator as per schedule.
Pitted against Beckham is William O.
Bradley, the only Republican Governor,
barring w. S. Taylor, who has held office
between 1865 and 1907. Governor Bradley
has declared that If the Republicans sit
tight" they will win the senatorial contest,
The Republican leaders claim that the re-
volt of the Democrats against Beckham's
leadership will enable them to elect Brad.
ley. and they declare hat in any event
they will be able to beat Beckham with
some other Democrat acceptable to them
selves and the dissatisfied members of the
opposition. Politicians regard 1t as ex-
tremely probable that at least two Demo-
Gratis will vote with the Republicans
against Beckham, thus reducing his prob
able majority to four.
