Articles from Nippu Jill Read
In Court Room at
Honolulu

HONOLULU. July 2S.-During the
trial today of NJ. Maxine and other
leaders in the strike of the Japanese
plantation laborers charged with con-
spiracy, transations of editorials and
other articles that appeared in the
Nippu Jill, the organ of the japanese
Higher Wage association, were intro
duced in evidence by the prosecution.
They contained statements that those
who were opposing the strike were
traitors to thir country and ARE de-
stroying the colonial foundation of the
Japanese nation in Hawaii"
Some of the articles also urged the
death of those among the Japanese who
were opposing the movement for high
er wages.
Prof. Walter Dening of the educa-
tional department of the Japanese gov
erument is acting as interpreter in
the trial, and was brought here espe-
cially for that purpose. Professor Den
ing was on the witness stand today on
behalf of the prosecution and read
translations from many articles that
appeared in the Nippu Jill. He said he
came here by permission of the impe-
rial government.
Under cross-examination by counsel
for the defendants he admitted having
addressed a meeting of strikers at the
Waipahu plantation, telling them that
it was the general opinion in Japan
that the Japanese in Hawaii had made
a mistake in calling a strike, but de-
MED that he had said he represented
the government or that the foreign Of

WILL NOT AWAIT
COURTS DECISION

LARAMIE. Wyo., July 2S.-That west
ern millers who continue to bleach flour
will invite the seizure of their products
by federal inspectors was made known
today through a letter received by
State Food Commissioner Burke from
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson.
The impression had grown among
western millers, said Mr.. Burke, that
the government would content itself
with two or three test cases, and until
a decision of the supreme court nc
more seizures of bleached flour would
be made.
Secretary Wilson in his letter de-
clared such was not the intention of the
government, but that seizures would
continue without limitation.

STEP IN GRAFT
CASE RETRACED
ONE ACCEPTED TALESMAN Is
LATER EXCUSED
CALHOUN CASE DRAes ON WITH
OUT MATERIAL PROGRESS
Man Passed by Court Is Attacked by
Moore and Finally Admits HaV-
ing Expressed Opinion
Months Since
(By Associated Press.D

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S.-The first
important struggle over the selection
of a juror in the second trial of Patrick
Calhoun, president of the United Rail-
roads, occurred during today's session.
Carl E. Haas, a member of the Good
Government league who was tenn
porarily passed to a seat in the box
yesterday, was attacked by attorneys
for the defendant and admitted bias in
favor of the prosecution, which the
court deemed sufficient basis for allow
ance of a challenge.
Haas, who is a middle-aged wood
worker, was accepted yesterday by
Judge w. p. LaWlor over the objections
of the defense.
Stanley Moore this morning asked the
privilege of addressing a few more
questions to the talesman, and after
some discussion the permission was
granted
Mr.. Moor's questions developed that
Haas had several months ago discussed
the case with a friend; that he had de
clared himself on the side of the gov
ernment and he had asked the other
where he stood.
BY being on the side of government
do you mean that you are on the side
of the prosecution?' asked Mr. Moore.
Juror Talked of Opinion
Yes" replied Haas. Il am on the
side of the Tight-on the side that is for
the good of the city
! Mr. Moore then sought to learn if the
/ juror recalled discussing the case with
/ young man who claimed to be a real
estate dealer Haas said he had some
such recollection, but denied making
several damaging remarks about the
defendant He admitted the possession
| of views that the court held to be
grounds for allowing the challenge that
/ was denied yesterday.
| When Judge Lawlor intimated he
would allow the juror to so upon the
showing made, District Attorney w.
H. Langdon objected, declaring Haas
! had expressed no more than a com
mendabe desire to have justice done
all the defendants in the graft cases.
Unless it be held that men of this
frame of mind are eligible for jury
duty" said the district attorney, 'it
will be absolutely impossible to get a
jury to try this case
Court Reprimands Lawyers
Stanley Moore, however, addressed a
long argument to the court, setting
forth his opinion that Haas was pre-
iudiced agains the defendant and the
challenge was allowed. In making the
ruling Judge Lawlor made caustic ref
erence to an incident during yester-
days proceedings when Attorney John
]. Barrett of the defense was ordered
to stop talking and resume his seat.
1T will be we'll for counsel to re-
member" said the court, that no
such actions will be tolerated and l
will view any similar incident very
severely"
Judge Lawlor then stated that in
the future but one of the attorneys
/ for the defense would be PERMITTED to
conduct the examination of tales
man.
Seven of the q talesmen examined
by the court today We're reserved for
| Interrogation by the attorneys.

AMERICAN BANKERS
WIN SHARE OF LOAN
Chinese Railway Mortgages Will Be
Divided so That Financiers of
This Country May Partci-
pate Generously

BERLIN, July 2S.-The German
bankers participating in the Chinese
railroad loan have forwarded adVices
from Pekin that negotiations for an
American proporJionate share in the
loan are nearly completed on terms
agreeable to the Americans.
The loan, it is stated, probably will
be increased by one third and an agree
ment has been reached for equal rep
resentation in future railway loans, as
it is evident that much more money
will be required for railway develop
ment than is covered by the present
transaction.

INVENTOR OF GALLERY FOR
R0GUES RETIRES FROM FORCE
Tommy Adams, Member of New York
Police Since 1872, Has No Funds
and Is Broken in Health

NEW YORK, July 2S.-Tommy
Adams, inventor of the rogues' gallery,
has retired poor from the police force.
He joined the department in 1872, when
he was 25 years old. He is broken in
health.
superintendent Byrnes decided that
with his knowledge of criminals he
ought to make a good detective, and
placed him on that force in 1888. Soon
after he originated the rogues gallery,
and invented the frame in which the
pictures are held. This particular ap-
pliance is used in many cities, and
Adams made little money out of it, as
the sale was not large.

MERCHANT MARINE TO
BECOME NATIONAL ISSUE

Seattle, Oct. 2.-Restorative leg
islation for the merchant marine Is
to become a great national issue. as
the result of President Taft's address
at the Alaska Yukon-Pacific exposi-
ton. The nations chief made it
plain that the disappearance of the
American flag from the paths of in
ternational commerce across the ocean
highway is little short of national
calamity Recognizing the import
ance of the declaration, the Hearst
newspapers have undertaken a can
vass of the national legislators to feel
out the situation, as it is certain the
president will recommend immediate
action at the next session of congress.
Will E. Humphrey of the first Wash
ington district, will probably intro
duce the measure, as he has been the
most consistent advocate of rehabili-
tated merchant marine. President
Taft showed that in case of war, our
great fleet would be helpless, for
lack of colliers and transports. This
aside from the commercial aspects, in
view of the fact that trade follows
the flag, makes it certain that ship
ping legislation will become as i'm
portant as tariff revision.

A. Y. p. EXPOSITION
BRINGING RESUTS TO COAST

Seattle, Oct. 12.-Commercial Or
CARNATIONS in all parts of the north
west are taking renewed interest in
their work, as the result Of the wide
spread interest in this part of the
country, growing out of the generous
publicity resulting from the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition. The annu-
al report of the Tacoma Chamber of
Commerce, just issued, shows that the
volume of injuries received from
prospective newcomers has never been
larger. Similar advices are received
from eastern Washington points also.
Everywhere, commercial clubs are
showing signs of prosperity. These
organizations active in Walla Walla
and Wenatchee are already erecting
permanent homes, from which they
will continue to enlarge their grow
ing activities. The wonderful devel-
opment of both the Wenatchee and
Walla Walla districts is due largely
to the intelligent work of their COM
mercial bodies, which, while they
boost and boost, also do something
more substantial. Pacific Northwest
Commerce, the official publication of
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce,
will shortly print a resume Of the
work done by all trade and promotion
forces of the northwest, which will be
rich in suggestion for future work, as
we'll as drawing attention to what
has already been done.

ne rallied visibly.
"You say, madam" he began. "that
me defendant is sort of relation of
yours. Will you please explain what
you mean by that-just how you are
related to the defendant?"
"Well, it's like this" replied the
witness, beaming upon the court. His

cousins first wife's aunt married
brothers named Jones, and they were
cousins to my mothers aunt. Then
asain, his grandfather on his mothers

WILL ARGUE STATE
GUARANTEE OF DEPOSITS

A dispatch from the University OF
Oregon has the following to say re-
garding the Oregon High School De-
batting league, of which Pendleton is
a member:
With Superintendent A. NJ. San
ders, Of Albany, president, and Pro-
fessor f. f. Decou, of the mathemat-
ical department of the University Of
Oregon, secretary, the Oregon high
School Debating league starts on a
prosperous year The league now
contains practically every four-year
high school in the state.
At the annual meeting of the State
Teachers association at Albany in
July an important change was made
by introducing the triangular sys-
TEN in district debates. The plan is
the same as now being used by the
universities of Washington, oregon
and Idaho. 1t consists in each school
putting into the field one affirmative
and one negative team. The affirm
ative teams debate at home while the
negative teams try conclusions at the
homes of their rivals. The school
whose two teams receive the largest
number of votes from the judges is
the winner. This system has the ad-
vantage of doubling the number of
students engaged in debate, and at
the same time balancing the inequali-
ties of one-sided question which ex-
listed last year.
The state question for 1909-1O
which will be discussed in the final
debate for the state championship at |
the university. is, Resolved, That the |
voters of Oregon should give their |
Endorsement to the proposed law for |
the state guarantee of bank deposits"

\ Case of Hasty Criticism

Cambridge, Mass.-Certain popular
preachers and editors of religious
weeklies must, we think, feel asham-
I'd Of the diatribes with which they
assailed the reports of ex-President
Eliot's address before the Harvard
Divinity School, now that the pro-
nouncement has been printed in full.
If We were to believe these hasty
critics, all was over with the Chris
tian religion, and the only thing left
to the churches was to disband and
commit their work to worthier hands.
But now that the full text is publish

these comments are, and we have one
more warning against the ill-consid-
cred haste with which the best
thoughts of our public men are read
and studied by those who pose as
