gone. Many went without seeking the
good offices of the planters and as a
result a number of them are carnped
out in the Eva plantation park wait
ing to be put ON the salary roll.
Many Tragic Queens.
The women who wanted to go to Eva
were very persistent First their hus-
bands asked to go to Eva. They were
turned down. They pleaded again, and
then finding the planters obdurate,
brought the women folks forward. They
pleaded, fell upon their knees, cried,
walled, wept, grew hysterieal and re-
fused to bulge from their position until
the word was given that to EVA they
could go.
Mr. Meads states that it is the most
difficult crowd he ever attempted to
handle and he does not want to see its
duplicate.
Fifteen of the Portuguese are stll
held at the immigration station by R.
@. Brown, nspector-in-charge, and these
may be returned to the Portuguese is
lands as being undesirable. Some are
said to be mentally deficient, others
have diseases which bar them from en-
trance to the United States.
A number of the immigrants left for
Maui last evening on the Claudine and
some left for Kauai on the Hall. The
crowd is rapidly dwindling away, but
only about half who came have been
sent out by the planters association.
Heard From "Jack.'
Secretary Savidge of the board of
immigration heard from Jack Atkin-
son by the last steamer from Yoko-
hama, the letter being dated from Yo-
kohama. Mr.. Atkinson states that he
has hopes of raising very large con
tingent of Russians for transportation
to Honolulu.
From all reports that have reached
Secretary Savidge, the russians are
doing well on the plantations to which
they We're assigned. Some have COM
planned a little about the heat. but
these complaints have been few in
number and not uttered with any idea
of critieizing their class of work
Want to Skate.
Some of the Russians are said TO
have been little disappointed be-
cause they found there would be no
skating in Hawaii at any time of the
year. 1t seems they asked Mr.. At
kinson, when being recruited near Har-
bin, If there was any skating done
here. Mr.. Atkinson said iokingly that
lot of people here INDUCED in skates
occasionally. When that joke is finally
| interpreted into Russian it may be
laughed at, but some of the Russians

NEW USE FOR THTMBLE.

\ clever Young girl, who is full of
ingenuity, has hit on a novel use for
her thimble. She slips it on the end
OF brass rod when she wishes to put
the rod through the heading of a lace
or muslin curtain. Every one of any
experience with little sash curtains, or
even longer ones which are run on a
rod, knows that it is most bothersome
to get the rod smoothly through, for
tn" brass is apt to have a slight rough.
ness from being cut, and usually
catches IN an annoying manner. Slip
a thimble over the end. however, and
1t works Ike charm, as any girl will
agree who tries it.

representatives in the upper house
at the national capital has fallen
from grace at home, and is not
likely to enlist the united support
which was accorded him when he
was chosen four years ago, and
this seems to be the case. In fact,
however, neither Senator Piles nor
Mr.. Wilson is to be regarded as a
favorite in this respect. The sup
port Of King County is far more
likely to be concentrated upon
Judge Thomas Burke, a stronger
and better man than either.
These preliminary rounds are
not at all serious, however. There
is a vast difference in conditions
prevailing now, when the choice
Of the people at large is indicated
under direct primary, than under
the old system, when the politi-
clans alone selected the winners
through the legislature. Neither
King nor any other county can
dominate the election of a success

and there are splendid possibili-
ties open to the man who can make
himself solid with the people, even
though he may be lacking in the
endorsements Of the bosses or the

While former United States Sen
ator John L. Wilson has cOyly adj
mitted that he will not dodge if
L. H. Gray tries to force a renom-
nation upon him, his press agent
is not waiting until violence is
used. He is going right ahead fur
nishing country newspapers with
information showing how John L.
is not only the perennial, but the
logical candidate. The Wilson
press agent naively says the for
nation of the Gray club els believ-
ed by many to be the forerunner
of the retirement of Senator Piles
from politics.. :" This is putting it
so strong that Senator Piles may

Columbia County Dispatch
Comments.

Although Washington does not
elect another United States SEN
ator until 1911, the campaign for
that place is already open. The
formation of a John L. Wilson
Senatorial Club in Seattle is the
first gun to be fired and it is TAX
en- as a forerunner Of an an
nouncement by Senator Samuel
Piles that he will not be a candi-
date to succeed himself. In fact,
the senator has refused to dis
cuss his political plans. L. HI.
Gray, president of the King Coun-
ty Republican Club, is responsible
for the Wilson movement. Mr..
Wilson occupies an influential
place in Republican ranks as pro-
prietor of the Post-Intelligencer Of
Seattle. He served one term in the
United States Senate. Should Mr..
Piles decide to retire, there is
bound to be a lively scramble for
his place. John E. HUMPHREYS is
the only avowed candidate in the
field at this time and he will run
whether Piles does or not; or at
least he says so.

Colfax Commoner Discusses
Situation.

John L. Wilson is looming up
as a formidable candidate for the
seat in the United States senate
now held by Sam Piles. He has
many staunch friends as we'll as
bitter enemies in this county and
all over the state for that matter
He is a harder worker and an alb
Ter man than Mr. Piles but stands
for the same interests. His can
didacy will be entirely satisfactory
to the railroads, the lumber barons
and the forces Of plutocracy. lie
is an able politician and the Com
moner has it on good authority
that a combination has been per-
fected by which his candidacy
will receive the support OF the Ia
coma newspapers and the Spokane
Spokesman-Review. In all prob
ability he will receive the Repub-
l;can nomination for the office. 1t
remains to be seen whether the
neople of the state will vote to
send him to Washington to pro
tect the interests of organized
greed or whether they will vote
for a man who will champion
their cause. !

said: "The whole thing had been
framed up clean through to the
supreme court" The fact that
Piles wines now that he sold his
interest cuts no figure, whether he
got $4,000 or $150,000 for his in
terest in that case is entirely ir-
relevant, if the case was framed up
and perjury and forgery commit
ted and if Piles had a knowledge
Of this he is as guilty as if he had
swiped the entire estate. If Sam
Piles accepted a penny of that es-
tate and the same was stolen, he
is as guilty as hell, and should be
returned to private life as we YER
lily believe he will be.
If Jno. Z. Wilson is a candidate,
Sam Piles can save his face by
backing up" He is doomed to
defeat as sure as the primaries are
held.
