MARINE
SHERIDAN WILL
ARRIVE THIS A. NJ.

A wireless message was received by
the naval station operator from the
transport Sheridan on Sunday evening,
but it came in sections, and the oper-
ator was unable TO determine whether
the master of the Sheridan expected to
arrive here yesterday afternoon or this
morning. However, fresh message ar
rived yesterday noon, via Barber S
Point, announcing that the transport
would reach Honolulu this morning.
She will probably leave this afternoon
for San Francisco. Among the notable
passengers aboard is General Weston,
who will assume command of the De-
partment of California.
Among the passengers from Honolulu
will be Lieut.. Randolph, Goth Infantry,
of Fort Shafter, accompanied by Mrs.

Commander Robertson, U. s. NJ, who
has been a guest at the Moana Hotel
for several months; Mr.. Colby of the

TAFT AND ROOSEVELT.
The Prospect Thm: They VIII BE ut
Swords Points.

Orom .he Louisville Courier-JournaD
Men like Theodore Roosevelt do not do
something for nothing. He Is n most as
tutc practical politician. He Is but just
turned 80 in the very middle and high
noon of life. "What Is IN ex-prcsldent to
do but die or get drunk" n dictum which
used To be ascrbed to one of them does
not apply to Theodore Roosevelt. His At
r.can journey was sagaciously planned.
1t Is being systematically achieved.
The reception which awaits the hero
will beggar anything OF the triumphal
kind the world has ever seen. In Berlin
and London and Paris. not to mention
Rome they are waiting for him; the
kaiser and the kings, for their cousin Ger
man. the people behind their monarchs,
for their fling; the Parsians for their
spectacular. which they will make an
extravaganza; the Teddy Bears" for
Teddy himself. There is nothing, We are
told. which succeeds like success.
Nor is there anything which Is so easy
as to the raising of misunderstanding be-
tween friends. A wink and n nod and 4
word by chance, and the trick is turned ,
presto. blow Is struck. The go-between
in love, the marplot in hate. Othello and
Republican party play the role of BESIDE
mona?
Whether the Republican party is able
to hold together against the strain OF the
protective tariff system. as the Demo-
cratic party was not able to hold together
against the strain Of slavery. remains to
be seen. Whether the Democratic party
has vitality enough to profit by a large
republican split is very doubtful. The re-
publicans who are planning to horn Taft
of and to whoop Roosevelt on are of the
opinion that the democrats are not worth
considering. Meanwhile is the president
that Is. whilst he waits tho coming of
the president that was. casting an an
Choir to windward that he Is SO gracious
to us democrats, especially to us ragged
rebels--not so ragged as we were of the
South? Teddy, let us remember. Is hsN a
southron.

AS TO DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS.

All sorts of jokes and near jokes are
constantly on the boards about "the de-
lnuuent subscriber. Most of us are
familiar with them. Rummaging through
an old Kansas newspaper file of forty
five years ago this one was discovered:
"A western editor requests those of his
subscribers who owe him more than six
years subscription to send him a lock
of their hair, so that he may know they
are still living. In answer to which tho
contemporary says that If his delinquent
subscribers would do this he would he

OHIO SITUATION.

Mr. Taft, Of course. would like a sec
ond term. That is only natural No
president wants TO go down to history
as a "one-termer.' Yet the people who
are brought into intimate association
with Mir. Taft feel certain that his
course will not be influenced in the
slightest by the thought that he is
helping or hurryng himself to secure II
denomination. He has that concern IN
the future that we all have. but his real
interest is in the things of the present.
1t is common belief that Mr.. Taft is no
politician. 1t is the same thing that
used to be said of Mr. Cleveland. but
Mr.. Taft is showing that he is not en-
tirelv ignorant of the great game of
politics. 1t is OF vital interest to the
Republican party that republican shall
be elected governor Of Ohio and defeat
Gov Harmons as Harmon's reelection
will make him a formidable candidate for
the democratic presidential nomination.
an the loss Of the presdnts own State
would be a blow to his prestige.

the presidents brother Charles P. Taft,
cx-Gov. Myron T. Herrick OF Ohio and
Arthur Vorys. who was the Taft Ohio
ign manager. talked over the situa-
across the luncheon table.
The eX-secretary of the interior, Mr..
Garfield. would like the nomination, but
the president vii; not consent to it. He
wants a bigger man than Mr. CARRIED,
man in whom the State has confidence,
man who can size UP to the Harmon
standard. The man has not yet been
selected, but when the decision is made
it will be because the president has given
his approval.
