New York, Oct. 15-Three thousant
factory owners in all parts of the
United States, in responce to inQuir-
les, come out strongly for the exec
tion OF Taft as president.
Manufacturers in the South are
quite as insistent upon this point as
their Northern brethern. All agree
that II prosperity is tocontinue and
the country be saved from terrific
slump 1t is necessary to defeat Bry-

be published Saturday in American
Industries. the magazine which collec

Many big concerns, employing thou

Bryan should be elected.
Dispatches from Chicago announce
that SHERMAN brothers, wool deal
ers, who handle 25,000.O00 pounds of
wool annually, are offering to pay a
premium of $4,000 for 100000 insur-
ance against the election of Bryan.
they explain this offer by saying that
the election OF Bryan would probably
result In a slump in the wool mar
ket of 4 or 8 cents q pound, which
would entail heavy loss upon them.
Sigmund SHERMAN, member OF the
firm, says:
II think we can easily afford to
pay the premium mentioned. There
L. NO question in my mind that a
Democratic victory in the national
election will have a depressing effect
upon business. We have gained a
pretty good idea through information
from manufacturers. how the wind
will blow If Mr.. Bryan is made choic

Other big manufacturers and trad
esmen, commenting upon this insur-
ance, said there was nothing unique

against fire, floods, or any other cal

DID you ever look up the meaning
of the words Price" and Cost?
We venture you'd be interested, even
surprised.
Price" originally meant not money, not CASH
but Reward, Praise, Worth. In the days of
Caesar they called it "Pretium''
Cost comes from the old Icelander word
'Koster," signifying to Choose, to Test, to
Prove.
So Price" is really the Worth of the thing sold.
Cost means how well the thing bought proves
up in actual use.
So we're SO far off the track today, for when you
buy paint Price of should be the measure of its
usefulness, in appearance and wear. Its Cost to you
will be how well it stands the you put If it
does well, it's cheap if not, you paid too much.
Measured by this, poor paint far far than
good paint; worth the price asked and never
stands the of wear.
There's house paint made that's worth the price
and stands the test and that's HORSE SHOE

linseed oil, japan, colorng matter and nothing else;

ROUND THE ISLAND

Claude Braden and J. F. Macdonald,
the two young athletes who are tour

FULL STORY Of
THE ABD|CAT|ON
Chief Justice Relates Share in
Preparing Document
for Queen.

Chief Justice Hartwell last evening
presented the Hawaiian Historical So.
ciety with some documents. of the high
est historical interest and value. These
were the original draft of the Queen
Liliuokalani s abdication, together with
the drafts containing the corrections
made by her, leading up to the fifth
and last draft which was the one which
she executed, and which of course went
into the archives of the government
The account of the circumstances un-
der which these drafts were made, as
recounted by the Chief Justice in MAX
ing the presentation, is also of great
historical value as refuting erroneous
statements that have been made re-
garding che matter, at a time when
political bittefnesses were rampant.
In recounting the circumstances,
Chief Justice Hartwell said that in Jan
uary, 1895, the Queen, then being a
arrest at the time of the 1895 uprising,
Paul Neumann, Charles B. Wilson and
Samuel Parker came to his office and
asked him to draft an abdication for
the Queen. This was the first intima-
tfon that had come to MIN of any such
thought or purpose on her part. He
asked these men if they had come from
the Queen or really represented her,
and if she knew of their mission They
replied that she did He said that if
he drafted an abdication it would be a
drastic instrument. Paul Neumann re-
piled that that was why they had come
to him.
Mr.. Hartwell then drafted the instru-
ment using lead pencil and yellow
paper of legal cap size, such as is fire.
Quently used in lawyers Offices for first
drafts of documents. Drafting abdica-
tions, the Chief Justice said humorous
ly, was something he had not often
been called on to do. and he made con-
siderable search for precedents, but
without much help as a result of his
search When he had completed his
draft. w. L. Stanley, who was then in
his office and who wrote clerkly hand,
then made two copies of 1t.
''Why two copies were made. said
the Chief Justice, 81 do not now know,
unless it was that ! wanted copy IN
the office that someone could read.
One of these copies in Stanley s
handwriting was then given to Charles
B. Wilson to take to the Queen for her
perusal and revision. Mr.. Hartwell
went to President Dole and stated that
Wilson wanted to see the Queen on
matter that he thought it was proper
he should see her about. and on that
representation President Dole issued or
ders that Wilson should be allowed to
see the Queen.
Later Wilson returned with the copy
with some changes in it. and Mr.. Stan
lev made third copy etnbodying these
changes. This was given to Wilson.
He went again to the Queen and re-
turned with still other changes, slight
ones. in this copy.
These changes were Incorporated IN
a draft made on parchment paper, MI
Hartwell having some in his offee al
that time. Mr.. Hartwell then suggest

TWO DELEGATIONS
FROM EIGHTH OF FIFTH

There is merry little war on among
the Experimentation Party forces
down among the taro patches in the
Eighth of the Fifth, and it is likely
that there will be rival delegations sent
from that precinct to the Territorial
and County conventions.
This fight is off old standing, the fac
tions there having clashed regularly at
every precinct club meeting fer the
past four or FIVE years and this time
the split has resulted in the election of
two sets of precinct club officers, the
naming of two meeting places for the
nominations tonight. and the stating of
two delegations. The regulars, that
wing which has possession of the club
roll and the minutes of most of the
meetings, is led by George Barker,
Republican veteran, who states that for
the last time he has given in to the
malcontents. This faction viii meet to-
night at the Barker residence, 1140b
Kali street, which is street run
ming north off King, Eva of the main
Kalihi road.
The boilers, headed by George Mark
ham. who has resurrected and is now
a staunch Republican, will meet in the
Protestant chapel at the corner of Gu
lick avenue and Douglas street, al
though the regulars are looking for
enough of them to drift over to their
meeting to make trouble and secure
possession of the roll if possible.
The regulars in this precinct are out
for Lucas. The bolters are intending
to send a Hustace delegation in Achi s
interest. 1t will be up to the conven.
tion to decide which delegation will be
seated.

REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS

The secretaries or someone in
each of the various Republican
precinct clubs are requested to
inform the Advertiser, either by
calling at the office or by tele-
phone, of the results of the nom
nations in their precincts this
evening. Owing to the hour at
which the nominations close and
the fact that the meeting places
are widely scattered, it is impos-
sible to obtain a complete list
for publication in the morning
paper unless the names of those
nominated are sent in.

Charges of serious nature have
been filed at Washington against Rob
ert w Breckons, United States District
ATTORNEY, based on evidence collected
during the past several weeks by Rev.
f. W. Thwing. Mr.. Breckons is aware
of the fling of the charges and ex-
presses his willingness to meet them i.
any time should the Attorney Genera
of the United States desire to institute
an investigation into the affairs of his
Office or of himself.
The affair. has brought the staff of
the Office of Governor Frear into men
tion, inasmuch as those who have ffet
the charges express the opinion that
information has leaked out of the Gov
ernor's Office for Mr.. Breckon' benefit
The names of prominent persons are
involved in the charges, it being un-
derstood that r. C. Jones, w. w. Hall,
w. r. Castle, Bishop Restariek and 9th
ers have signed a request to the Attor-
ney General of the United States that
an investigation based on the charges
made be instituted.
Shinpo Breaks the News.
The first public statement :egardinf
the fling of charges against Breekons
was made on Wednesday morning in
the Hawaii Shinpo, that newspaper lab-
aishing a story under the head IF - n
stormy Outlook in which some of the
charges fled against the District At
torney were outlined.
The Shinpo stated that it could speak
in no way for the truth of the charges
and suggested that the request for Sn
investigation was a political move,
arising out of the Iaukea investigation
matter, in which, as starter, MIR.
Breckons had a hand. "With the Japa-
nese. we have always found Mr..
Breckons honest and fair" said the
Japanese organ.
Yesterday. the Shinpo commented on
the fact that none of the English papers
had as yet mentioned the matter, TAX
ing this as evidence of the fact that
a discussion of the matter was some
thing that had to be carefully handled.
The charges are in regard to Mr.. Brec-
kons' prize fight actions, his share in
the Isoi matter, his handling of private
legal eases in conflict with his offiela
duties and neglect of trust prosecutions
rrb1rinc Confirms Story
Yesterday Mr.. Thwing was asked rs
to the truth of the Shinpo's stateTnert
regarding the fling of charges against
Breckons. He confirmed the report and
added to it at length.

At times the people came so fast that it was difficult to count them especially when they were viewed from such a distance and with many getting in line of view all the while. Often he had to leave his place to explain some of the exhibitions when questions were asked him. still his register showed 1,952 One time alone when he was away from his station fifty people were counted entering.
