What Conspiracy Is.

"'Now, gentlemen of the jury, we
want to approach this trial in COM
mon sense way. OF course, there is
such thing as conspiracy. You
have all heard of the wonderful Guy
Fawkes conspiracy. The court will in
struct you that the proof of a con-
spiracy may be made by proof of va
rious acts. 1t isn't very often that you
can get direct proof of conspiracy, and
/ am not fool enough to suggest to
you that that is the only proof. The
government comes to you with bunch
of facts from which they say you can
infer a conspiracy Lightfoot re-
hearsed in a general way some Of the
facts.
"There was an organization called
the Higher Wage Association-as Prof.
Dening translates it, the Higher Wage
'Kisei' Association, and his testimony
being tinged, he says 'Kisei-an awful
thing; it means determination. And
they say there were branch organiza-
tons at other places. When
We have entered into conspiracy, the
act of one is the act of all. But that
isn't the same as saying that these
men are TO be held responsible for ev-
cry crime committed in the Territory
of Hawaii, unless conspiracy is prov
ed. 1t seems to me they have put the
cart before the horse. They should first
have proved that there was a con.
spiracy,

only a Superstition.

"Suppose the Evening Bulletin comes
to me and says, You write us out an
account of the proceedings in court,
and Wen pay you $50. And III say,
Yes, IN do it, until His Honor finds
me guilty of contempt of court and
sends me to Jail. Does that make me
responsible for all that appears in the
Evening Bulletini But from the books
of the Nippu Jiji it appears that some
months Mr.. Negoro got $50 from the
Nippu Jill, and, therefore, he is re.
sponsible for every article that appears
in the Nippu Jill.

The Right to Strike.

"From the argument of learned
counsel, you a almost believe that these
four men are being tried because they
caused strike. They're not. And
thew didn't cause the strike. Nova
days working men have right to go
out on strike. The common working
man has property in his services and
he can sell that property or he can
keep It as he pleases. There is nothing
illegal about strike. Unfortunately
strikes are frequently attended with
violence. But striking as such is legal.
The japanese had n right to say to
their employers. you're making two
per cent. a month on your investment
and we mant more than the $lS
month you are paying us, and if you
don t give it to us. we re going to
stop work.
GA great deal has been said about
piekets. The learned prosecuting at
torney has sought to convey the idea
that picketing is. terrible ching. 1t
ism anything Of the kind. 1t is as
lawful for strikers to establish pickets
as it is for them to eat. They can
of course, use violence or intimidation.
But they have right to go
to returning strikers and say, 'You re
Japanese, don t you think it would be
better to stick by your own people in
the conflict with the planters' You
are not going to find these defendants
guilty because there were piclkets and
that the pickets took up tickets.

A Bird of a Riot.

Referring to the assault on Giichi,
Lightfoot passionately disclaimed on
behalf of his clients any connection
with that incident. He then took up
the riot at Waipahu.
THAT was bird of a riot. We
went through long case; the jury DIS.
agreed, and were soundly berated for
it. Mr.. Scoville comes on and testifies
that there was a shower of sticks and
stones. But when he is pinned right
down it was two stones and one stick
and l doubt if they ever existed. These
people say there was shower of sticks
and stones, and when they come down
to it, it is just case of our cat and
another. Do you believe there was any
shower of sticks and stonesf
"Unless the prosecution gets tired,
you will have an opportunity of finding
out whether there was any riot there.
If it had had anything to do with this
case, we would have gone into it and
shown you that there was no riot; that
it was just the foolish act of police
officer who had lost his head and shot
off his revolver"

The Point of View.

Lightfoot interrupted his argument
to tell story to the jury. The Bishop
of London, he said, was trying years
ago to suppress hard riding, hard drink
ing and hard living among certain of
the clergy of England. He called in
one OF these gentlemen, who was fond
OF driving horses tandem, and suggest.
ed to him, "Don' t you think, brother,
that IT is not quite the thing for YOU
to do to drive tandemi OF course,
there's no harm in it, but-well, Won
know, 1t looks rather-rather- YOU
know
" But, replied the Clergyman, "My
Lord Bishop drives two horses side by
side Now, ii it's not wrong TO drive
horses side by side, surely there Is no
harm IN driving two horses, one in
front Of the other"
"Ah, but, my brother, there Is A

DELIVERS LECTURE
tUnited Press Leased wire.)

NUnlted Press Leased Wire.
i Berkeley. Cal. March 26.-Consid-
cred today one of the worlds great
est thinkers on questions of social
economics and world history. James
Bryce, British ambassador to the
| United States, has aroused great in
terest and discussion here by his lee
ture before the faculty and students
Of the Pacific Theological seminary
in Hearst hall last night. He spoke
of Relations of ethics and religion
before the appearance of Christian
| ity," and in part said:
We understand religion to mean
the conception man forms of the
Deity, his idea of his own relation to
the unseen power that governs the
universe. BY ethics or morality will
be understood mans conception of his
IrelatiOn to his fellow creatures and
OF the duties he owes them. The re-
suits OF this view of his relation To
others appears i'm the conduct OF his
! life. That conduct is also influenced
by his religious beliefs; so the sub
| ject to be considered Is the influence
of both taken together on the actual
conduct aud behavior of men.
Most of us now mink religion and
morality 10 be practically inseparable
But this has not always been so.
i here have been religions I'm which
there was very little morality, faiths
In which belief had told very little
upon practice. There have been sys-
TENS OF morality which could hardly
be said to rest upon religion. systems
at any rate in which the idea OF any
Deity to whom man was responsible
was extremely faint and dim.
In order TO understand the influ
ence which Christianity has exerted
on morality IL is necessary to know
something of the religions and ethi-
cal systems of the ancient world be-
fore Christianity appeared
Before Christianity ethics We're a
entral power I'm the activities of man.
We find plenty of schools of philos-
ophy, many schools of thought. many
conceptions of Deity, but In all the
writings OF the ancients We find an
appreciation Of the influence of moral
power. Plato may not have believed
in our divinity. but he had a definite
conviction Of a divine power aud
we'll defined conception OF the moral
relation OF man To man

afternoon, about ten minutes after

in the old stables below Shannon
Place. When the fire started the
wind was blowing right toward

costa would have been burned to
the ground. But kind Providence
willed it otherwise, and while the
conAagration was fierce and disas-
trous, still no lives were lost. The
scene was fascinating, yet horrible
The old barn close to w street was

this opportunity to improve the
street and add their mite to help

The Worlds Happenings.
DESCRIPTION OF QUEER

Assistant Supt. John Clark, Of
the Botanic Garden, prompted by
verbal inquiries from flower show
visitors, has explained the pecu-
liarities of some Of the plants which
the Government has loaned the
Washington florists for their an
nual exhibition.
''The pitcher plant, brought
from the Philippine Islands, is one
of the most interesting specimens
we have on exhibition at old Ma
sonic Temple" said Mr.. Clark,
who has worked among plants for
nearly three score years. "These
pitchers hold about a gill each of
peculiar liquor, much sought by
tipping bugs and insects and pos
sessing powers that will make them
all drunk Sometimes thirty or
more of these intoxicated insect
customers are found in one Of
these plants. The plant is botan-
icallv known as the Nepenthes
recta.
"Another curious plant is the
Sarracenia Drummondii, named by
Amos Cummings the'All Night Sa-
loom. His colored guide informed
him it was provided by nature that
the night moths might see where to
get their liquor Another species
. of the Sarracenia is called 'The
Sunday Saloon, the creeping Gus
toners entering by a back door.
"Darwin's Insectiferous gives a
lot of valuable information con
cerning these and other strange
plants, gathered from all sections
of the globe, which may be seen al
the flower show"
