Hawaiian woman was day or so AGO
made a prisoner in the out-of-the-way
den Of a Korean named PAX Chang 30,
ON the Koko Head road, Kaimuki.
Locked in bare boam room, the
window barred, for a whole night and
the greater part of a day, she finally
managed to get word to another Ko-
rean who was passing along the road
and he helped her by informing the
police of her embarrassing position.
The girl was rescued by special officers
from the station, her clothes restored
and her jailor was this morning fined
$3.50. He runs chicken ranch and
unless he can mortgage a few chicks
to raise the $3.50, will have to serve
five months in Jail to make good the
fine This is not the first time that 30
has been guilty of such an act. The
girl is the wife of Chinese. She
went to the Koreans ranch voluntarily
but when she wished to leave the place
she was made prisoner.
A Japanese, Higashi, is on trial for
cIiminally assaulting a nine year old
girl Of his own nationality. In this
case a Hawaiian hacllman notified the
police and the Japanese man was cap

place on Punchbowl and Queen
streets. 1t is a matter that may go
to the grand jury.

She was represented by Attorney Chas.
ChillngWorth. In this affair a Ha
waian police informer had won her
confidence during her husbands abb
senca at work on Waipahu plantation
and then had effected her arrest on
charge of her selling to him two bottles
of wine, whereas she testified that the
marked half dollar he had attempted
TO give her was not used in the pur-
chase of the wine: that she had with
her own money got the wine from the
Aala saloon and that the informer had
thrown the marked half dollar on the
floor in order to incriminate her.

There is only one way to cure deaf

infamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it Is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be TAX

| The News is informed that Con
gresham Bowers is chatting under the
criticism that has been heard on &C
count of the meagre appropriation for
a Hattiesburg federal building, and
that he has said that the policy of the
government is not to build any more
two-story postoffice buildings. That
may be true, but the policy only ap-
plies to one-story towns.
Hattiesburg Is out of that class:
Mr.. Bowers may not appreciate it, but
it is a fact just the same, and The
News has only been doing a little mis-
sionary work to enlighten our able and
distinguished representative in Con-
gress.
The trouble has been that Mr.. Bow
ers has only been in Hattiesburg dur
ing the heat of political excitement;
when voters were tearing off their
clothes for their favorite candidate
without getting any promises in re-
turn.
Hattiesburg is first-class city, and

pairs the injustice done Hattiesburg.

TARIFF REVISION.

The problem of tariff revision which
confronts the special session of con
gress is fraught with serious complica
lions and President Taft has shown
his shrewdness by placing the full re-
sponsibility of tariff legislation on the
national lawmakers.
Barring his suggestion in favor of
an inheritance tax, the adoption of
which will enable congress to tighten
the tax on numerous articles of i'm
port, it will be recalled that the brief
message of the president contained no
specific recommendations.
1t, therefore, devolves upon con-
gress to shape the tariff measure with
little or no interference on the part
of the chief executive; and between
the platform pledge of the republican
party to reduce the schedule of tariff
taxation on one hand, and the depleted
condition of the treasury on the other,
some of the gray-heads in Washing
ton will be much grayer before the
measure is finally perfected
Already are we reminded of the
days of 1876 by the protest that is 60
ing up all over the country against
the tax which the Payne tariff pro- |
poses to put on tea in order to tighten
the tax on other commodities.
The democratic idea of tariff for
revenue only and the Roosevelt idea
of shifting the burden to the shoulders
of those best able to bear it-by taxing
trust-made goods to the exclusion of
all others-are each popular in admin.
istration circles, but the interests will
fight them every inch of the way.

protection on lumber, sugar and rice. {

the next national census would take
literal census of reputation, 1t would
do more to correct sentiment and fix
a life standard in individuals than all
the mercenary cant of the current
press.
This census of character, which
should give fully the religious and the
social views of parents, would clear
away the mists of puerile rot as to
what it takes to make somebody Of
people than all the guesswork of the
many colored theory of the current

L The writer is by no means a rabid
religionist. But he gives as a positive
proof, made by knowing families and
seeing their careers, that from a truly
religious household not more than one
in ten from such origin goes fatally
astray morally. He further affirms
that of families who practically ignore
Christian training, never fewer than
two-fifths of the character output
from such homes go to disgrace and
moral ruin.
The church has surrendered to the
world and lost it's hold on the faith
and affections of the masses, and I'M
less the cloth of the clergy comes back
to the simple, humble faith of by-gone
generations, there won't be a single
stable and pust government on earth

These last doctrines of skepticism
have frightened the pulpit until it is |
AFRAID to announce the truth as they |
have been taught it for fear of being |
labeled as fossile in the exploded |
field of thought.
The fact that we now have a presi-
dent who is a deist-who don't he
lieve in the divinity of Christ and who
doesn't believe in the resurrection. and
of a future life-these things are all
going to operate to give doubt and
cant new impetus. The pulpit has
before it the greatest task and duty

The Ruinous Fruits of Needless Doubt
and Uncertainty.

New Augusta, Miss, Mar. 30, 1909.
To the Editor Daily News:
AS has been before suggested by
the writer, great truths, such as touch
tint and shape the life of individuals,
are not easily discerned Cardinal
virtues, those which make us by their
power when recognized, accepted and
practiced, useful, happy and esteemed
and which, if neglected or disbelieved,
affecting our very interest by the con-
slant interviewer touch with every
substantial phase of life, is a serious
obstacle to all real efforts at the prog
ress and moral elevation to which we
are, or ought to be, due u.s.
Overgrown notions of personal free
dom have grown to be a peril to the
perpetuity of social order.
This morbide growth of the liberty
sentiment has crept into the family
circle, and dissolved all legitimate
parental authority. 1t has gone into
the school and destroyed or crippled
discipline. 1t cankers the machinery
of civic regulation. 1t is rapidly sap
ping away the very foundations of
domestic, industrial, social, religious
and civic order.
In this stormy experiment of dis
carding the wisdom of the ages and
adopting the unbridled theory of selfs
supposed interests and desires, all no.
ton of self-sacrifice for others is lost
brushed aside as the puny piety of
grandmother, or the puerile rage of
the crank

at least, suggestions of present life
methods-a pageantry of pretensions
Is most of what we meet in daily life.
Smiles and frowns are laden with the
dramatic commerce of appearance.
and sincerity is trait of simplicity
according to this late order of deport.
ment.
Every pretender to virtue and in
teiligence feels sure that he is a read
er OF character; and that he can with
ready facility read and interpret the
real mind and purpose of his neigh
bors. At the same time this astute
detective has the vanity and damnab1e
ignorance to believe he has execution
aI abilities as a pretender and that
MS native superiority is such as to
protect with archive care, the real
truth as to his own purpose and aim
AS to the causes which conspire to
make human conduct such a transpar
