"kIVERED' TOO MUCH.

'FIddlng Bob Taylor had just asked
the momentous question, Who stopped
the clock of our prosperity in 1907
Then he proceeded to warn the Repub-
lican party with the following parable
Of the old Tennessean who had "likkered
up on one occasion too heavily
Sir said Senator Taylor. II warn the
party in power now that long before
final Judgment day shall come there
will be Judgment at the ballot box,
and the party so jubilant to-day will lie
helpless and disconsolate, az the old
Tennessean who joined a great excursion
to the beautiful city of Memphis in the
days when the saloon was in flower.
The old man after lingering too long
where Bacchus smiles became hilarious
and swOre he could whip anybody in
Memphis, and the crowd around him
laughed
Then he swore he could whip any,
body in Shelby county, and the crowd
laughed again. Then he swore he could
whip anybody in the State and stranger
jumped on him and beat him nearly to
death and left him writhing on the floor
But finally he arose in sitting position
and exclaimed: Gentlemen, | am afraid
| kivyered a leetle too much territory in
that last proposition.
They gave us the Mckinley law and
the people stood it; they gave rs tue
Dingley law and the people endured it;
but the senator from Rhode Island will
discover by and by that he has 'kivvered
leete too much territory in the last
proposition Washington Times,

THE WEDDING BUFF00N.

The spirit which makes a wedding an
occasion for rude practical joking and
boisterous horse.play has long caused
the judicious, even those who are en-
dow4d with a sense of humor, to grieve.
WHY should a man and woman who
have lust taken upon themselves a rela-
tionship. momentous in the eye OF the
law and sacred in that Of religion, be re
earded a. fit subjects for annoyance and
persecution at the hands of their friends
and neighborsg And why, above all,
should il be thought funny to annoy and
prosecute them?
Not infrequently serious injury has
resulted from the rough antics of the
wedding clowns, who are of course too
iu.bred to consider anything 80 intangi-
BILE as the dignity and happiness of their
unfortunate victims.
But cheering intelligence comes from
Kansas. A chariyaTi party in town
Of that state recently dragged an unwill.
ing bride and groom up and down the
main street Of the village in an open
wagon. incidentally they ran over boy
and broke his leg. Now the town must pay
the boy exemplary damages. The Kan
sas Supreme Court has decided that the
exuherant humorists who pulled the
wagon constituted a lawless and violent
mob which the police officers Of the
town ought to have dispersed That the
mob was good natured and meant
no harm does not render the town less
liable for the harm the mob actually did.
SO it seems that the law is able eifec
lively to encourage common sense and
decency in this direction. If the princi-
pies laid down by the Kansas court be.
come generally understood, there will
be less public liberation of this particu,
lar sort of nonsense. Youths Compa.

THURSDAY, JULY 49, 1909.

It is the bouudIess intricacies ana
fathomless depths Of the tariff that en-
able the manufacturers to get IN thelI
work. The people will not read and d.
gest, because they are not able 10 lol'
low and understand Yet every day
they are being plundcred before their
eyes.
Last year the Republican party co"
ering before public sentiment, made
pledge that if entrusted again VIII
power it would revise the tariff, so as tl
make il conform to a uniform principle
and President Taft repeatedly renewed
that pledge in words which admit OF No
misunderstanding. The Republican,
were entrusted with power and Con
gress is now completing the work OF
revision. What Is the tariff ON WOO
and WOODEN goods! The House made a
few trifing changes in it, and the Sen
ate restored il to the language OF th'
Dingley law As result the tariit OF
wool and wooden goods will not be a
subject Of conference. except in tTIalng
particulars. and will be sent TO the pres
ident practically without change from
the Dingley law. As it is with wool, 30
it is with everything else. The con
surer shall get no relief from the bur,
dens Of taxation.

chickering's and troubles arising In Cuba
the Spaniards see vindication of their
own administration of affairs down
there: they discern an argument that
the United States did an entirely futile
and an unnecessary thing when 1t inter
fered to set Cuba free and that the
Spanish crown was unfairly relieved of
its possessions. They probably behold
in the circumstances cause for regret, OF
sense of mistreatment, OF real title
to recover what was so unJustiy taken
away. And to the superficial glance 1t
might seem az though such point OF
view Ia not unreasonable.
Such an attitude, however, fails to
consider the fact that the United States
interviewed in the Cuban struggle be-
cause the disorder in the island result
ing from long drawn-out rebellion was
hurtful to our interest; that this chaos
at our very doors was .ntolerable IN
every way; that we had certain police
right to set things straight. If free
Cuba does not behave we interfere on
exactly the same principles, which have
been woven into the Cuban Constitu'
ton. The disorders under the Spanish
regime and those under the Republican
Government are of a similar pattern to
U.s. If peace had been restored in Cuoa
and good government established by the
Spanish crown we should not have in
terfered in 1898; if the Cnban Republic
maintains order and good government
we shall not interfere with it"

Owing to the large enrolment in the
bookkeeping, shorthand and meehani-
cal drawing classes which opened at
the Y NJ c. A. night school last even

the classes into two sections. This
will leave room for others who wish
to enroll later in all except the type

full enrolment of twenty students.
The number of different students
now enrolled in the association IS even.

PRIVATE JUICE
IN COUNTY JAIL
Municipal Plant Can't Supply
Power for Penal
institution.

The county Jail will be lighted with
juice from the plants of the Hawaiian
Electric Company. Sheriff Jarrett last
night informed the Board of Super
visors that the Jail is in total darkness,
except for the pickering light of Ian
terms, and said that it is impossible to
get any power from the municipal plant.
He therefore asked for authority to
connect up with the commercial COM
pany s lines.
Supervisor Cox, chairman of the po-
lice committee, testified to the veracity
of the sheriff IS statements, and urged
the necessity for taking immediate ac-
tioa. He said that the jail is full and
that the smoke from the many lanterns,
required at night in order to keep the
premises reasonably light, is not only
offensive, but very unhealthy.
With but little discussion the matter
was placed in the hands of the police
committee with power to act. The first
motion was to place the matter in the
hands of the electric lights committee,
but Chairman AHA begged that the af-
fair be placed at once in the hands of
the police. Such was the action taken.
