Mr.. RICHARDS LETTER and
REFORM.

1t Is an interesting commentary on
the moral standard Of Honolulu that
certain elements claiming the privi-
lege of moral censorship over the
community look upon the letter of
Theodore Richards to Senator Coelho
as little short of criminal on the part
-of Coelho who received II!
A letter of that character address
ed to a State legislator Of Iowa, for
instance, would call for Grand Jury
investigation and action on the part
of judicial officers that would at
least furnish moral example If it
did not eliminate that style of bust
ness from public affairs.
Here In Honolulu the member Of
the Legislature is attacked for hav-
ing been the recipient of such a let
ter, and the general atmosphere of
the "morallsts" is apparently one of
sadness that the fayors given in the
hope of securing n vote were not ac-
cepted in the spirit in which they
We're extended.
Yet in the face of this some Of our
people try to make out that new blood
is not needed in the official lists of
the Territory, in order that common
justice and common honesty may not

Campaigns with the moral tag
on them have been SO frequently con-
Quoted in this city with threats and

Apropos OF nothing IN particular,
"A Setta," published in Hllo, delivers
itself of the following:
If you're not fit for anything
else, II you are drunk and hun
cry you can get a job on the
roads. Sure! There are no poor
houses, so IL Is a good thing
man can get work on the roads
when he Is turned OF job at
the Masonic building and anoth-
err at The Volcano Stapies. Hay-
ing the job he can get something
to eat and he won't get drunk.
Nine men out OF ten when asked
for money even to buy food, will
buy drink instead and an emp
ty belly cant stand many OF them.
There may be some deep meaning
in the reference TO man turned of
the Masonic Temple or Volcano sta
bles job. What attracts this papel
IS relation of work on the roads t
Hawaii's lack OF poor-houses. If the
roads save men from becoming public
charges, the construction is cheap a

PRESIDENT TAFT SHES
AT FRACTIONAL FIGHTS
Weight Of Administration viii Not Be
Loaned to Any Candidate.

Mir. Taft has laid down the hard and
fast rule that he will not Interfere in
my political squabble IN any state or
assist in factional war within the
party. The occasion was the appeal
made to him by Senator Hopkins Of
Illinois, who Is q candidate for rc.elec'
ton before the Legislature at Spring
field and Who after a contest extend
ing over more than six weeks, is still
as far from reelection as ever.
Senator Hopkins argues that he has
mortgage on the office, because he
received the greatest number of votes
at the primary election. He has never
been near a majority OF the Legisla'
ture on joint ballot, and his friends
have begun to despair of his ultimate
success.
An unsuccessful appeal was made to
President Roosevelt and then Senator
Hopkins decided to wait until he could
get chance at Mr.. TAFT and make his
plea. Mr. Taft, II Is understood, has
made II plain that he cannot aid any
particular candidate for Senator when
there are others equally deserving.
He regards what he and President
Roosevelt did in the New York sena.
torial election as standing by itself.
There could be no question that Elihn
Root was the best man for the position
in point of standing and equipment
and the influence of the outgoing and
the incoming administrations was
thrown In favor of Mr.. Root with the
result that he was elected harmon
iously.
The refusal of the President to sup
port Mr.. Hopkins was a great disap
pointment. but Mr. Taft, It is said, will
adhere to his position that the Presi
dent of the United States has no bust
ness interfering in the internal party
troubles of any particular locality.
