Some of the rulings of the game
commission have brought upon
them the ire of the people, and
we have not the slightest doubt
that it's days are numbered. The
conservation of game is a good
thing, every true sportsman and
citizen realizes this very forcibly,
but the law which will be effective
will be that law which is plain,
free of technicalities, which really
protects game and non-game
birds, and which prohibits the
creation of sinecures. The PEG.
pie will back such a law, will see
to its enforcement. -Pointe Cou.

DAM, A KOREAN, PAYS ON SCAF-
FOLD FOR MURDER OF HIS RI
VAL

His neck breaking with the drop,
vi Hal DAM Korean, murderer of his
mistress's second lover, was hanged
shortly after s o'clock this morning
in the rear yard of the Territorial
prison in Iwilei Prison authorities,
religious representatives, medical men
and members of Che press attended.
High Sheriff and Warden William
Henry had, as is usual with him in
such cases, arranged everything so
neatly that the death sentence was
carried out without any more unplea-
santness than is absolutely unavoid-
able in a hanging.
Five minutes after the springing of
the trap the doctors pronounced life
extinct.
John Martin, the temperance work
CT and prison visitor, was a much
moved spectator, having gone to the
prison to offer the doomed man a
word of cheer. The Reverend Mr.
/ Ming, Korean clergyman, also had 6
message for the condemned.
The crime committed by the Korean

Dam having followed his prey from
Eva, this island.
PAX See, a young woman, who haC
lived at EVA had been the mistres.
of vi Hal Dam. But she tired of hin
and ran away to Hawaii with zee Gee
Tai, another Korean, taking 800 o.
Dams money.
Dam followed and caused the arres
of the woman and her lover, under
] the Edmund Act, but was cheated Of
his revenge by the couple getting mar
ried and so avoiding Imprisonment.
Accompanied by another Korean
Dam went to the room of the pail
and cut the throat of the man. He
had intended to kill the woman. also
but fed at her screams, fearing to be
discovered by neighbors.
This is the first hanging in almost
three years, the previous execution
being that of three Koreans.
Governor Frear signed Dams death
warrant two weeks ago

MEETING OF LEADERS.
Leaders of the strike, most of them
out on bail, yesterday held what was
perhaps the most important meeting
of strike leaders since the beginning
OF the campaign for higher wages.
The main decision of the gathering
was that under no circumstances Will
the Japanese plantation laborerst give
in; but they will continue to strike,
off and on, indefinitely
Whereas there are many Japanese
working on plantations in these ISL
ands who would rather work than
strike, needing the money, there is to
be brought the pressure of the argu-
ment that increased funds are about
to be available not only from local
sources, but from the California jap
anese and from Japan
Japan's attitude in Manchuria is not
without its argument here in regard
to the strike. 1t is being asserted that
the Japanese government needs SOL
diers to throw on the Manchurian
frontier, in view of a possible near
conflict with Russia; and for this rea-
