PERSECUTION OF THE PRESS

Last week another one of my
policies" as Theodore, the Dema-
cog, is wont to call them, was car
ried out when Fred D. Warren,
the editor Of a Socialist paper pub
lished at Girard Kansas, was con-
victed by a Federal court. The
court charge was the unlawful use
Of the mails. The specific charge
being that Warren had sent letter
TO man named Pierson in Caliior-
MIA, the letter containing a reward
offered for the capture of Ex-Gov-
ernor Taylor and his return to
Kentucky, where the authorities,
as our readers we'll know, wanted
him to answer to the charge OF
completely in the murder of Gov
ernor Goeble. This offer was made
at the time the kidnapping Of Moy-
er and Haywood had been legalized
by the Supreme court. and was
done to call attention to the incon
sistency Of such decision.
The above, we say, was the court
charge. but in our opinion. the real
offense consisted of the fact that
Warren had published in his paper
and circulated in pamphlet form a
collection Of official records that
seemed to prove that Roosevelt,
while governor of New York, had
signed the very bill that made Har.
riman's Alton steal possible. To
make this more apparent. we have
but to recall the fact that every few
days we see or hear of rewards be-
ing offered for the return of men
who are charged with having COM
mitted crime, and we see these
cards and circulars not only sent
through the mails. but frequently
conspicuously displayed in the post
Office building. We will guarantee
that you never before heard of a
prosecution following such an act.
This shows that the of1ense is pc.
litical rather than otherwise.
1t does not materially matter il
Mr.. Warren is sent to the peniten-
tiary for FIVE years and made to pay
a fine Of 5000, as he may by the
law under which he was prosecuted.
Men have suffered such penalties
before. But it does matter tremen-
dously whether this nation is to
resort to Russian methods of con-
trolling the utterances of the press
ofthis country. If this is allowed
to go unchallenged we have no as.
surance that similar course may
not be followed with other publica-
tions that are not pleasing to the
men in charge of the national admin
istration If a Socialist editor can
be Tailroaded to the penitentiary be-
cause his utterances have been Of
fensive to the president is but log
ically follows that a similar fate
will be meted out to Prohibitionists
and Democrats when the Socialists
have been successfully suppressed.
In fact, the tendency has already
manifested itself in the hailing of
Joseph Pulitzer and Delevan Smith
from their homes to Washington to
be tried for what is practically lese
majestic.
The people in this country should
show their disapproval OF such
methods in manner SO marked
that it cannot be overlooked nor
misunderstood. Eternal vigilance
is the price of liberty" and liberty
cannot exist where the utterances
Of the press are controlled by the
officeholding class.-Farmington-

Every planter has his own notion
about setting trees in line and on a fiat
location this is an easy matter. A
good plan on level ground is to have
stakes about one foot long with strong
wire the length of the row II possible.
Mark off the distance OH this line for
each tree and place peg there. Then
mark each side of the orchard in thj.
way. To fill in the square draw the
line from the end peg to the other aud
then another row must be put out.
Thus the operation is carried to the
other side. After the stakes are placed
properly for the trees secure four-inch
strip about four feet long with a hole in
each end large enough to allow a steak
to he driven through. Cut notch in
the middle of the stick. Place the
notch on the guide stake aud put u
stake through each hold on the end
then lift the bar to allow the digging OF
the hole. Having the hole dug put
the marking bar back on the two stakes
and place the tree in the notch instead
OF the guide stake. If this work /.

mind is to plant trees deep and allow

that brings to Honolulu the supplies
consumed by the people and take away
the products of the soil of these Is
lands. And around the tables gather
the business men of Honolulu, their
rivalries for the time being forgotten
while they discuss plans and projects
for the upbuilding of Honolulu and
Hawaii.
The Commercial Club is the result of
a long thought-out plan of a number
of the business men of Honolulu.
The idea of club for business men
as business men and not as social fac
tors, had often been discussed without,
however, tending to any definite result,
due to the doubts expressed of its abil-
ity to hold together clubs have existed
in Honolulu for over half a century,
one of the first of these being the
British (now the Pacific Club. At one
time there was, also, an American Club
one OF short life. Both of these were
and one still is, more of a social nature
The real inception of the Commercial
Club dates from the visit of the Re
fund Delegation to Washington, il
January. 1906. On the way to an6
from the seat of government, the mem
bers of the delegation were entertained
by "Noon Day. clubs, Merchants
clubs and Commercial" clubs.
These clubs seemed to exist solely
for the purpose of bringing together
at the noon hour, business men. Their,
were places where men could meet, OF
a common ground, in good fellowship

organization made up of business and
professional men who, while working
for their own interests, are also work
ing for the interests of "Greater
Honolulu The club has done much
to promote a harmony of feeling and
mutual respect among the business
men Of Honolulu.
Although composed Of business men,
the. social feature of its constitution
has not been neglected and a number
of interesting entertainments have been
given by its members. Early in it's
existence the club decided that one
day of each week the club should be
open to ladies and every Saturday is
set apart for this purpose
During the short period that it. has
been open the club has entertained a
number of prominent men passing
through or visiting our city. Notable
among these have been ex-Vice- Presi-

The Commercial Club of Honolulu

Much Of the rapid growth and IN
ereasing importance of Honolulu must
be credited to the activities Of the
commercial organizations of the city,
which have done 50 much toward sys-
tematizing and encouraging efforts for
the advancement Of the welfare, not
onlv Of their members, but also OF
the community OF large.
OF these business men 5 organlza-
tions. the Commercial Club Is one Of
the most important and energetic
Though one Of the newest in point II
wears. it is one Of the strongest and
most active, and as its objects are not
only commercial, but also social, it has
attained 4 prominence that has made
1t well known far beyond the shores o.
Hawaii
The Commercial Club, with a mem
bership Of about two hundred, has fine
quarters in the MeCandless building, at
the corner of King and Bethel streets.
Here the members may meet and talk

spacious parlors and smoking rooms or
around the luncheon table And here
within the past year and more have
been entertained many men of promi- |
nence, not only in the United States, |
but also throughout the world.
The club is typically Hawaiian, not |
only in its objects, but even in the |
appointments of its quarters. The f,
beautiful furniture with which the |
rooms are filled is Of Hawaiian mahog |
any, or koa. Most of the pictures that
decorate the walls represent Hawaiian
scenes. The primary object of the
clab is to advance Hawaiian pros
perity.

served in the fine diningroom, the

lay aside for an hour the rivalries of
business, or utilize the time spent at
the table for the furthering of plans
looking to mutual profit.
The social feature of these clubs
seemed to be secondary, emphasis be-
ing laid on the fact that they were
business clubs for business men where
they could meet for friendly inter
course as well as for satisfying the
inner man.
The idea impressed members of the
delegation as a good one for Honolulu
and, on their return, the suggestion was
first made to a few friends with the
result that meeting was called in Au-
gust, 1906, at the rooms of the promo
tion committee. There a tentative plan
was outlined, subscription lists open
ed, committees appointed and the first
steps of organization taken.
Later meetings followed, a constitu-
ton and bylaws were adopted and the
first officers elected. In the mean time,
committee appointed to select quar-
tiers reported on the offer of the Me-
Candies brothers to add a third story
TO their building (then in course of
erection) for the use of the club. The
committee recommended the acceptance
of the offer and the recommendation
was adopted
On July p, 1907, the members, then
numbering about seventyfve, took
possession of their new quarters and,
from that time on the history of the
club has been one of advance and pros
perity, the present membership num-
bering over 200.
That the club has justified its exist
ence goes without saying. 1t is a strong

have its own building properly arrang-

and activities.

grow in numbers, in influence and in
