Gossips have circulated report that Former
Congressman Hiram r. Burton was responsible
for the commoton around the Federal Building
due to the investigation of the Civil Service
Commissioners. II has been declared that Dr.
Burton instigated the investigation; that he
had started it because he wanted to get

to have intetfered with him in Sussex county
politics. Those who know DIR. Burton and his
methods of political warfare of course, did not
credit the stories, but there are others who may
have believed them. To set DIR. Burton straight
in this matter we publish a letter this afternoon
from the Civil Service Commission written to
DIR. Burton which shows that he had nothing to
do with the investigation and was in no way re-
sponsible for il.

ALpRIcH ON THE TARIFF Bill.

& ENATOR ALDRICH, in his opening adj
- dress in defense of the tariff bill before
the Senate, showed that he had no fear that ths
measure would fail to provide sufficient revenue
for the government. The Senator, as might be
expected, opposes the imposition of inheri-
tance tax or an income tax both of which will
come before great many years, but not yet
The wealthy interests OF the country and the
rich fnanciers of New York are naturally op-
posed to such taxes. With income and inheri-
tance taxes New York would be hit hard by the
hand of Uncle Sam for New York City would
pay a large share of such taxes. An effort will
be made to embody the income tax in the tariff
bill This could be done by combination of
the Republicans favoring the income tax with
the Democrats. But at the last moment suf-
hcient number of Democrats would be likely to
flop so as to defeat the measure.
Much may be said in favor of an income tax
although the strong objections TO it are the diff
fcuties surrounding its enforcement The in-
come tax is a direct tax and is open TO the'iQb-
iections against all direct taxes.
The chief objection that now appears to the
enactment Of an income tax or an inheritance
tax is that it would interfere with the states
Many states have inheritance taxes and derive
considerable revenue from that source. They
do not want 10 give II up TO the NATIONAL gov
eminent In other words they hold that the
national government sho11d take czre of itself
without directly poking its long hand into the
pockets of private citzens in the states. And
we share in this belief. If there is TO be in
come tax or an inheritance tax imposed upon the
people OF Delaware, the revenue should go to
the support of our state government.

he concludes that the organization will be for
Mr. Taylor, although many of the organization
men will vote for Mr. Hastings Thus it is adj
initted that the organization will support no one
soiidly. We do not think the organization will
formally or informally indorse any candidate for
Mayor If it does, some one at headquarters
should give a telephone call TO Farnhurst.

The best thing that the perturbed Democratic
papers can do is to publish without bias the
news of the arrests of Democrats on charges OF
violating the election laws. Let them take their

WANT POLO GAMES
KAPIOLANI PARK

The showers of this morning have
more than ever emphasized the i'm
portance of having a polo field in a
dry locality, and set all the poloists
thinking of the suggestion of Walter
Dillingham; that Kapiolani park race
track be fixed up for this purpose.
During the forenoon several polo play
ers communicated with Mr. Dilling-
ham, and the talk was serious about
shifting even the practice from out
side to Kapiolani park, owing to the
fact that it is always dry out there
while Moanalua is in the shower zone
Mr. Dillingham; has urged in and
out of season the advisability of fixing
up the park track for polo purposes,
the arguments in its favor being it's
dryness and its proximity to town and
the car tracks. At that place there
would undoubtedly be many people out
to witness practice and games.
For instance, practice game is set
for Moanalua this afternoon, but it is
doubtful, on account of the showers OF
the week and today, if it can be pulled
off.

SWIMMING RACE
THIS AT TERNOON

This is the afternoon of the return
match swimming race between teams
of the Healani and Myrtle boat clubs
The event will take place at the Bish-
op slip, and will be from one side to
the other of the berth, a distance of
exactly fifty yards Six laps of this
length give the total distance of 300
yards.
The race will start at o'clock, and
will doubtless be witnessed by a big
crowd of people. Some of the best,
young swimmers of Honolulu will take
part. What the result will be re-
mains to be seen. Certain it is, how
ever, that the Myrtles, who lost the
last race, will make a desperate try
for it this time. Following have en-
tered for the event:

A SETBACK FOR HILO.

y OblbACh II ON f1llO.
The event is to be regretted for more
reasons than one. Hilo had become
known as the only town in the Terri
tory where big purses were offered ana
honest racing was assured. To this
latter claim Hilo is no longer entitled
and it will be many long day before
another gathering of fully $500 peo-
PIE, such as crowded the grand stand
and grounds on Monday, will again be
seen at Hooulu Park. People in the
grand stand who had paid for reserved
seats had their view of the races OBJ
Structed by dozens, who had not paid
for the same privilege, crowding up
the front steps of the stand and re
naming there because there was only
one attendant in the structure, and he
alone could not cope with the crowd.
OWNER AND JOCKEY BOSSES.
Another cause for complaint consist
ed in the delay in starting the races.
Although the first event was scheduled
two races run by $3.50 p. m. The
horses came on to the track when
their owners or trainers wished, no
regard whatever being paid to the
ringing of the bell by the judges. In
the same way the jockeys at times
absolutely disregarded the orders of
Starter Campbell There was no set
time on the program for each race to
start. The colors of the jockeys were
not adhered to, in some cases there
were no colors given and jockeys
came on to the track without position
numbers attached &c their arms.
BIGGER MEN MUST LEAD.
Should Hilo ever he able to restore
herself TO the position she held in the
racing world of the Territory a week
ago, it can only be when Hooulu Park
is taken in hand by a Jockey Club or
by a committee of men who are above
suspicion, and who will frame and
insist upon the execution of rules that
will be rigidly adhered to. Until that
time comes Hilo may retire from all
aspirations for being a center for morse
racing
PUBLIC BE DAMNED POLICY.
In the event of this week Mr. John
O'Rourke has appeared to the public
at least to a very large majority of
those who were present, to think not
only that he leased the park. trained
! the horses started them when he want
ed to and had the privilege of select
| ing winners, but that he also was
above the judges being a member OF
an executive committee of three OF
which with his partner, Mr BrughelI
he constituted a majority Toward
the public Mr. O'Rourke never seems
to have considered for a moment thai
he owed duty or any responsibility
in return for the money that he tool
from them. He may be classed witt
the late William Vanderbilt as saying
