I'VE are going to exterminate the syco-

asked to make lists OF sycophants and
send them to the Nippu Office. Wit

line with the policy of the Higher Wage
Union, but II was intended to aid the
higher wages movement.
He published the lists. If he found
that lists were not according to the
facts he would not pubnsh them. OF
his own knowledge he knew who were
sycophants at Waipahu. When be be-

ed them. He judged by the way the
letter was written or by his knowledge
of the circumstances in each case.
Sega did not recollect one particular
report published which told of twenty
five sycophants having been elected
at Waipahu.

{ Especial Correspondence.


WASHINGTON, d. c., July Elf
we could have known in advance that
Mr.. Taft would assume such an atti-
tude as he has taken on the tariff,
he would have received no support
from the West, and probably would
not have been nominated" This dec
laration, made by a western Republi-
can senator from a state that pro
duces much lumber and many hides,
is representative of sentiment that
to a great measure prevails among
westerners towards the President. 10
is true that at the present moment,
the President has fewer western
friends in Congress than at any time
past.
While Senators and members do
not feel free to publicly criticise the
President for his tariff position, there
is no difficulty in learning privately
how western men feel. Almost with
out exception, when they will discuss
the subject they voice displeasure
with the President. and charge that
he has handled the tariff bill in a
way to benefit New England and
some of the prairie states at the ex-
pense of the West. While it is true
that he forced material reductions
on manufactures of leather to Offset
the removal of duty on hides. it is
the open boast of the New England
manufacturers that the price OF
shoes, harness and other. leather
goods will not be reduced. They de-
clare that the consumer will get a
little better grade of shoes, or what
ever else it may be, but at the same
old price. Yet the New England
manifestly will benefit
through the removal of the duty ON
hides.
And it is charged. the same is true
of lumber. Though IS cents has been
taken off the duty on rough lumber.
and the duty on finished lumber has
been reduced to a lesser degree, lum.

LOVELY WEATHER.

Beautiful weather, this, for ride

There is little dust on the road, it
having been kept down by the gentle
showers during the night. Patrons of
the hotel will find the cuisine all that
could be wished for and the service
excellent. The golf links attract the
players of that, almost, national game

their comfortable chairs whisper in
vitations to all who come to the de-
lightful place.

AND SCHWERIN REACH ENTENTE

SAN FRANCISCO, July 29.-The
Chronicle says:
Masters of Pacific Mail liners are
sleeping soundly o. nights once more
for the difficulties between William L.
Castle, of the Castles of Honolulu, and
General Manager Schwerin of the Pa
cific Mail Steamship Company have
been amicably concluded by a truce,
which was agreed upon by the parties
Yesterday morning at the Office in the
Flood building.
Castle walked into the Office of X. p.
Schwerin yesterday morning and Of
fered to wager $1,000 with him that he
would be able to repeat his perform
ance of Saturday, when he sailed on
the Mongolia and returned on the pilot
boat in defiance of the orders of the
general manager of the line.
Castle was confident that he would
be able to board the Newport on Fri
day despite the efforts of all the cap
tains, the secretaries and the deck
hands jumping to carry out the orders
of General Manager Schwerin and head
him off, and he wanted to bet $1,000 on
the spot that he could do it.
But the bet was not taken, and after
a conference, which is clouded in mys-
terry, the war which began in the
lunch room of the Pacific Union Club
was ended by a truce.
Our difficulties have been settled
amicably," says Castle. "This is the
only authorized statement which have
made
MASTERS BREATHE EASIER.
So the masters of the liners who had
been ordered to keep Castle off their
sigh of relief, and felt that barring
shipwrecks and sunken rocks and such
minor difficulties their jobs were once
more safe.
No captain who had sighted pirates
in the offing had been more fearful OF
the result than the captain Of the
Newport, for orders is orders" and
his instructions were to repell board
ers when Castle showed up on the
dock.
But then Castle said he could do it
anyhow, and that made the captain
nervous. His official head depended on
the outcome. There are the rat tenders
invented for the purpose of keeping
rodents from coming aboard, but there
has been no machinery invented RI

mits he IS a Sherlock Holmes IL, so

which will bring the export rate into
comparison with the domestic rate
and hence have handled the matter
in the only other way open to them,
by cutting out the export rate.
Il have simply come down here for
a short visit and will return by the
Manchuria. 1t is some years since I
have been in Honolulu and am max

lane. He and were always very close
friends and it will hardly seem Ho-

the captain might well have been ner-
vous.
Then Castle called at the office of
General Manager Schwerin and was
ushered into the presence with his
written offer to bet $1,000 in his pocket.
And the outcome was an amicable
truce, What were the terms of the
truce is quite as much secret as is
the reason which impelled Castle to go
joy riding. on Oriental liners.
HAD A GOOD REASON.
Il can not tell you why I did it,"
he says, but | had a very good rea-
son which l am not at liberty to ex-
plain. A reasonable explanation might
be that l went to see some friends off
Down in the Islands, where | have

auctions in matters that appear most
difficult | still protest that l would
have been able to have gone on boaru
the Newport, but in my conference
with Mr.. Schwerin this morning we
reached conclusion under which l

SO the tempest which began at tine
lunch at the Pacific Union Club is sue
ceeded by calm, and Schwerin and
Castle have settled the matter most
amicably, although mystery surrounds
the terms of the truce.
On, ,,,o,, Of
marks Castle, which does not explain
why he did it, but he adds: You know
what condolences are. | have a fac
ulty for putting Nwo and two together
and arriving at deductions that ap-
per almost impossible to men of ordi-
nary habits or thought. / am observ-
ant, and | have a wonderful memory,
all of which helps me in these little
matters that | undertake. Now, if we
were to see a procession of 100 auto
mobiles driving down Market street, |
would be able to repeat to you their
numbers in rotation. When, perhaps
not as many as 100, but fifty or let us
say forty-nine or fifty"
WILL STUDY HARMONY.
Just why the possession of these ex-
traordinary faculties beyond the aver
age run of mankind made it necessary
for Castle to play ducks and brakes
with the captains and the secretaries
who follow the orders of Schwerin does
not appear. THAT can not tell you"
he says, and my only authorized
statement is that the difficulty has
been amicably settled"
Castle says that he has concluded his
law practice in Honolulu, and that he
win leave shortly for New York, on his
way to Germany, where he is to spend
several years in the study of music.
On his way he managed to make
noise like a marine collision in the
Pacific Mail office, and n boiler ex-
plosion would not have got on the
nerves of the captains of the liners as
did his declaration of defiance of the
orders of Schwerin.
But the positions of the captains
are once more safe. They may walk
their bridges, and attend to the ordi-
nary matters OF navigation without
fear, for Schwerin and Castle are at
peace; the wager of $1,000 was not
made, and Castle is going to Germany
to study harmony.
