| through with their enthusiastic
praise of the Keanae scenery~than
they swung around into Honomanu.
which, with its precipitous sides
and magnificent waterfalls, was
grander and more delicately tinted
than Keanae. The only disappoint-
ment was that the schedule would
not allow stopping to take in" the
! scenery. One could stay on the
| trail for days and not be surfeited.
Work of Man.
The great work Of man with
brain, Drawn and money was always
in evidence, as well as the beauty
and grandeur Of nature. The trail
ran alongside and in the general d.
! rection of the great Koolau ditch
built to feed water to the planta-
lions controlled by the Baldwin in
terests. Splendid victories for en-
cheering were all along the way,
and millions of gallons of water
were seen speeding on to the fields
/, thirty-fve miles away. as the result
of an irrigation enterprise involving
an expenditure of half a million OF
dollars.
Men Of Power.
who furnished the money for all
these great enterprises" asked one
Congressman. When he was told,
his speech that night dwelt particu-
larry on the courage and enterprise
of Hawaii's men OF means and their
able associates. There must be real
power, genius and intelligence to
carry such great works through to
success.
II was half past three Sunday aft
ernoon when Mr.. Pogue led his cav
alcade into his home grounds at
Kailua, Maui - at the end of the
trail. Yes, indeed, some of them
were tired, but not man or horse
was done up" or much the worse
for wear, and they had made the
twenty-three-mile trip with many
possibilities for accidents and the
untoward results of hard riding over
a rugged TRAIL in record time.

Des Moines, May 13.-"Now, I've
said a thousand times already, and I'm

nection with the Missouri rate case

Murphy and his charges. If you came
to hear me talk about them you're
wasting your time
These were the words that poured
from Judge McPherson's mouth yes
terday when Group of newspaper re-
porters visited him in his chambers
at the federal building with a request
that he make a statement to the peo-
pie Of Iowa about the charges by Con-
gressman Murphy of Missouri in which
he hints that the Judge was unduly in
Huenced by the railroads in deciding
against the validity of the Missouri 2
cent fare law.
Sorry you can't stay longer" con
linued the jurist with a smile that rob-
bed his words of their severity. The
reporters hadn't mentioned the fact
that they were in hurry to leave, but
the Judge took that for granted
Sorry you can't stay longer" he re-
peated, as the three visitors fingered

TAKES MATTER UP TO ROBERTS.
Stranger at centervilIe With peculiar
Actions, Alarm District
Court

Centerville, May 13.-The appear
ance in district court of a man who
demanded an audience with Judge M.
A. Roberts created not a little excite
ment and speculation. Opinion was di-
vided whether the man was lunatic,
an anarchist, crank or just an igno-
rant and misguided individual.
The stranger approached Judge Rob-
erts and sought to explain his griev-
ance which seemed to be in regard to
having to pay poll tax. Judge Roberts
treated the man kindly, noticing his
popularity of manner, and gently adj
vised him to see an attorney.
rs that your decision quoth the
stranger.
Yes said the Judge, 81 can do
nothing in your case
WELL" declared the man striking
an attitude, 81 burned my naturaliza-
ton papers last night and threw the
constitution of the United States in
the river, but I'll bet I'll never burn
anything again"
County Clerk Geo G. Elliott was
the first to notice the man who came
into the Office to inquire for the
county judge. Mr.. Elliott explained
that there was district Judge and
told where to find him, and asked it
he couldn't be of service in the ca
pacity of clerk. The man said no
that he must see the Judge. Then he
started to recite some of his Ltroubles
in an incoherent manner.
The man gave name somewhat
like Bohn and said he was from Mystic
but had recently come from Illinois,
where he had encountered the same
grievance. 1t appears that he thought
by renouncing citizenship he could get
out of paying poll tax.
After he had left the court room,
officers sought to find and detain him
but he disappeared as if the earth had
swallowed him.
The man was probably harmless. He
carried a stick, but apparently was
not armed

LEGAL FIGHT ENDED.
Seaman's Case at Mt. Pleasant De-
cided for Plaintiff Action Was
BEGUN in 1907.

Mt. Pleasant, May IS. - The dam
age case of Seamans against the
Northwestern and Burlington railroads
is at last settled. 1t has been long
drawn out trial; many witnesses
were used and many intricate points
of law involved.
The sealed verdict decided that
there should be paid to Mr.. Seamans
the sum of 5000, to be divided as fol
lows: $165 to be paid by the North
western and s35 to be paid by the Bur
lington.
In September, 1907, the plaintiff
shipped two cars of fine cattle from
Houghton, Lee county Ia, via the
Burlington to Des Moines, and from
there via the Northwestern to Salem,
S. D.
It was claimed by Mr.. Seamans that
owing to inexcusable delay in transit
the stock was in bad condition when
they arrived at their destination
thereby losing him money on them.
Attorneys Kopp and Robinson de-
Tended the case for the Burlington and
Mclaughlin for the Northwestern, and
the case was prosecuted by Attorney
McCoid.
