RATTAN TRAINS
THREE MARINES

Rattan. the husky marine who trains
all the boys down at Camp Very for
their boxing bouts and ably seconds
them when they go in their corners,
is very much bucked up over the COM
ing show at the Orpheum, on the night
of Saturday, July "a.
He said yesterday, have three
men to train for this show and you
may take it from me that they will
all be Johnny at the rat hole. Sarconi
is in fine shape and viii certainly make
it hard for Nigel Jackson. l look for
the bugler to win comfortably. Cor
poral Hull, who is training to meet the
cavalrvman, Freedman, is doing nicely,
thank you, and can sit up and take a
little nourishment three times a day.
Jack Coll is always more or less fit
as he plays ball all -.he time and IS
about as keen for open air sport and
athletics as any marine that ever loved
his prog. / know little about this
Zangari that he is up against, but the
Fort Shafter boys tell me that he is
a good one and all of us, down at the
camp, hope to see our man hand it to
the boy from Fort Shafter.'
Nigel jackson also came around yes
terdav afternoon to tell how fit he was
feeling and how certain he was that
he could make bugler Sarconi know
that he had been in a scrap. He and
Wahilani are both under the tutelage
of good old Bill Huihui, the Hawaiian
veteran and they box together at the
Orpheum every night at 5 o clock.
The main event, that between soldier
Mccullough and Wahilani, IS provok-
ing much comment and forecast round
town. Tie main sentiment seems to
be that Mccullough has never trained
properly and that this time, especially
over the longer route of ten rounds,
he will be able to slip it to the Ha
waiian lad.
AS to the "slipping it, there are
two sides to that question and Wahi-
lani may be relied on to make good
account of himself, but the other ac-
cusation is too well known to be true
to need comment 1t has been often
said in these columns that, if McCol-
Tough would only pay more attention
to his training, he would soon rise on
the ladder.
A more courageous and willing boxer
was never seen in the ring than this
good Irishman. What he needs is
somebody to put him hip to the game
and make him work hard for his vic
tories; to teach him to be quicker
with that left jab and to Judge his
counters more perfectly. At that Nc
Collough. is undoubtedly the favorite
boxer in Honolulu today on account
of his extraordinary gameness.

RIVERSIDERS'
FINANCES GOOD

There was a Unattended meeting
of the Riverside League at the offices
of A. L. C.. Atkinson, in the Judd build
ing Yesterday at noon, and besides the
president and Secretary, ". Tin Chong,
there were VI Paresa, Manager of the
Kewalos; 5. P. Correa, of the Palamas;
\. K. Hoopii. of the Aalas, and L. Mon
Tai, of the Chinese Alohas. D. Desha,
champion fielder of the invincible
Aalas, also put IN an appearance and
made the meeting very pleasant with
his broad smile.
The reports of the league officials
showed up well and successful sea-
son is expected. Treasurer Robt. Asam
reported that he had received $l59.6O
since the season commenced and dur
ing the same period he has paid for
expenses in running the league the sum
of $1,000. Of course most of this
sum received was made up by the as
sessnent of the FIVE clubs.
The communication from G. nj. Tai,
who has come through with thought
full gift to the league by presenting it
with championship trophy, was taken
up for consideration and this was ac-
cepted. The Secretary was so instruct
ed to notify Tai. Tai is in business
here and is one of the best-known sub
iects from the dragon land. There is
possibility that he will take up a
sporting line soon.
The games this Sunday will be the
best yet seen, as the two games ar
ranged for the afternoon are picked
from the best teams in the league. The
Fort Skaters will meet the Kewalos
in the first game and the Palanas will
play the Aalas in the second game,
Good baseball is promised for the aft
ernoon and there is no doubt that a
large crowd will be present

SCULLY SAYS HE

Cordell is training vigorously at the
Marine camp for his go with Dick Sui
Ivan on the night of Saturday, July
"a, and Sullivan is doing the same at
Fort Shafter.
Jack Scully announced last night
that he had arranged for Wahilani to
meet Freedman, of the Fifth Cavalry
in a ten-round preliminary. He also
stated that Mike Patton had agreed
to referee for him.
As this statement is in utter con.
tradiction of Mr. Cohen s published
statement that he had arranged for
Wahilani to meet Mccullough at the
Orpheum on the same night, an effort
was made to find Wahilani but he could
not be located and so it is not known
at present for whom he will appear.

LINCOLN AND alouoR TRAFFIC

Lincoln's cent ennial was made the
occasion Of some cunning work on the
part of the Liquor Dealers association
The Superior Telegram contained a
four-column adv ertisement with large
picture of Lincoln. Following brief
eulogy of our first martyred president,
were these statements:
To the cause of the great Common
People he gave limitless allegiance, and
nothing made him more indignant than
attempted legislative tyrannies or usur-
pations of any kind whatsoever. 'He
disliked sumptuary laws and would not
prescribe by statute what other men
should eat and drink, When fellow
legislators attempted to impose the
Maine Liquor Law upon the young
State of Illinois, he arose dec. 10Th,
184G) like Saul among the prophets"
and tabled motion which led to it's
defeat and final extinction by a sweep
ing vote of rs to s. Upon another
famous occasion he declared t'When
the white man governs himself, that is
self government, but when he governs
himself and also another man, that is
more than self government, that is
DESPOTISM" With equal truth we
can positively affirm that also is PRO
HIBITION.
If Lincoln had not on several occa-
sions denounced the liquor traffic in
immistakable terms, some of this rot
might seem creditible. In one of his
public addresses he said;
''The liquor traffic is cancer in So
ciety, eating out it's vitals and threat
ening destruction, and all attempts to
regulate it will not only prove abnrtive
but aggravate the evil, If the pro-
hibition of slavery is good for the black
man, the prohibition of the liquor
traffic is equally good and constitu-
tional for the white man.
"There must be no more attempts to
regulate the cancer; it must be eradi-
Gated; for until this be done, all classes
must continue exposed to become the
victims of strong drink.
1.-The most effectual remedy would be
the passage Of law altogether abolish
ing the liquor traffic.
Law must protect and conserve
right things, and punish wrong things,
and if there is any evil in the land
that threatens society or individuals
more than another, it is the liquor
| traffic.

somaAsT COMES HIGH

A few weeks ago County Supervisor
J. w. Miller came out in the Journal
with some sarcastic remarks concern
ING a statement made in the News Bud
get of Dec. 10. The statement to
which he took objection was that the
valuation of the city of Ladysmith was
raised $4,000 by the equalization COM
mittee. We made this statement in
correction of the Journals statement OF
the week previous that Mr.. Miller had
succeeded in having the valuation
lowered 100000. Mr.. Miller presented
figures in proof of his statement, but
these simply showed that the valuation
was lowered from the county assessors
figures. BY referring to the report. OF
the equalization committee in the coun-
ty board proceedings in this issue, any
one who cares to learn just how much
credit is due for this sort of reduc-
ton will see that every town and
village in the county was lowered from
the county assessors figures. Yet we
have not heard of any of the other
supervisors doing any growing on that
account. That is the result of the
equalization committees work every
year. The county assessor raises the
valuation of the local assessor and the
committee decides upon a happy
medium.
The News-Budget stated the facts
when it said that Ladysmith was
raised S119, GOO, 1t was raised that
amount over the valuation of the
previous year. We did not state
at that time that Ladysmith, one vii
lage and five towns were raised all
together $188, 772, while all the other
towns and villages were lowered an
aggregate sum of 5000, 854 The total
valuation of the county was lowered
$21, O82, while our supervisor on the
equalization committee stood for a
raise on the city of over four times
that amount.
The towns Of Willard and Big Bend
both got substantial reduction, there
fore it was but natural for their chair
men to come to the rescue of the man
who stood for the big raise that
enabled them to "get theirs. " The
advice of Supervisor Tom Foster to the
citizens of Ladysmith was good
when you get good capable man in
office, keep him there" Perhaps Mr..
Foster intended that Big Bend should
take heed also.
Now the News-Budget has no
quarrel with Mr.. Miller over this mat
ter and nothing would have been said
about it if he had not begun growing
over something that never happened.

AUTO GROWTH MARVELLOUS

In five years the money invested in
the automobile industry has leaped
from So 900, 900 to $187, 900, 900.
During 1907 something like $1,000
cars were made and sold, and 1908 will
supply about the same figures, although
many of them are of the small type.
According to latest figures, obtain
able, there are 3d. 900 employees in the
motorcar factories in this country,
about $4,000 employed indirectly in
making the parts, while there are 21,-
500 in the sales and garage establish
ments. This gives total of more than
108, 600 employees.
The records show that there are in
this country 253 builders Of motor cars,
of which at least 125 are beyond the
experimental stage and are placing
practical cars on the market. There
are not fewer than 500 different trades
involved in m0tor-car manufacture,
running from leather, varnish, broad
cloth and buttons to steel, brass and
rubber. Although the Importation of
motor cars is fast decreasing, it is d
fact that some $28, 200, 900 worth Of
foreign cars have been sold here. The
trend is now going the other way and
the export trade Of the American maker
is increasing rapidly,
With 1900 cars as a conservative
estimate for 1908, it is safe to say that
It's, 900 motor cars have been sold here
during the last eight years. One can
not be a pessimist on the cars future
in the fact Of such figures.
