ceased his office as governor. he had
been elected president.
The presidential campaign. of 1854
degenerated into one of slander ami
scandal and abuse but Mr.. Cleve-
land came through it with the conf
dence of the American people in his
courage and honesty I'D his single

The President related then, the sto-
ry of the victory of Cleveland in the
national convention for the third nom
ination over the leaders of most II
the state organizations through the
confidence of the rank and file of the
party. That campaign stood for the re-
duction of the tariff against the pro-

He was positive. He was affirma-
tive. He was courageous" continued
the speaker. He did not believe In
trimming down a policy to catch the
votes of those who did not agree with
him.
President Taft referred to the talk
of the usurpation of the legislative
branch by the executive branch of the
government, saying:

has the power of the purse. the dang

speeches by President Taft, Chief JUS

honor of the late President Cleveland

night exercises will he held at the

President Taft in his address said
THAT Cleveland was completely as A

simplicity and the honest courage of
his convictions, with sense of duty
to the public exceeded by no states
man within my knowledge"
He characterized his career as re

party and a part of the opposition,
while he, as mayor of his hCme city,

THE TARIFF BILL
REPORTED TO HOUSE

Washington, March 18.-The house
committee on ways and means agreed
today after the first meeting of the
full committee to report the Payne
tariff bill back to the house without
amendment. The democrats are given
until next Tuesday to prepare min
ority report. Representative Brouss.
ard, of Louisiana, voted to report the
bill without amendment, but all other
democratic members of. the commit
tee voted against it. The vote was 13
to 6.
Immediately after the House con.
vened, Payne reported the bill from
the committee. After good deal of
discussion, a resolution was adopted
providing for the printing of thirty
thousand copies of the bill, of which
25,0 900 shall be in document form en-
bodying the views of the minority
The report accompanying the bill
was made up in the main of extracts
from the lengthy statement regarding
the schedules, yesterday given out by
Payne but the Introductory portion Is
devoted to an explanation of the com
mittee's reasons for its course. Two
of the principal reasons for the read
justment of the schedules are given
first: That after the lapse of twelve
years since the enactment Of the Din
gley law many new complications OF
the tariff have arisen and it is stated
that the public demand for revision
has been confirmed by Information re-

night and becomes law.
Roswell and other cities may now

government, should they so desire,
the bill having been approved by Gov

that a number of cities in the terri

Although Governor Curry vetoed
the bdll approprfating $4,000 for the
completion of armories in various
parts of the territory. he favored the
granting of smaller sum, and ac-
cording1y a bill was pushed through
the legislature in conformity with his
wishes. Roswell gets $4,000 by this
bill, which became a law, the COVER

The Horticultural bill was also ap-
proved by Governor Curry and be-

WAR DELAYED IN ORDER TO
ATTEND CIRCUS

San Francisco, March 1S.-The
Steamship Acapulco brings news of the
war between Salvador and Nicaragua,
which was postponed one day in order
that the citizens of Acajutla might en-
joy a circus which was billed to play
in that town. When the steamer first
arrived, martial law had been -declar-
ed and no one was permitted to land.
The circus came to town and in less
than four hours martial law was de-
clared off so as to permit the passen-
gers to swell the attendance at the
show. Passengers on board the Aca-
pulco report that the ships of the two
warning states reported engaged in
battle had not been out of the har-
bors where they are stationed.

HARTMAN NOT VET READY
TO RETIRE FROM BUSINESS

Los Angeles, March 1S.-The state
ments attributed to E. H. Harrim an
at Pasadena last night regarding his
present state of health and the posi-
bility of his retirement from active
life, appear to have been somewhat
at variance with his intended mean
ing. Hartman said only that he knew
that sooner Or later he would have to
shift the burden of responsibility that
had rested upon his shoulders to
younger ones. This, however, is no
mint of any possibility of his retire
ment in the near future. Doctor Geo
A. Dixon, the private physician OF
Mr.. Hartman, is quoted as saying
that the latters health has not been
better for years and that the present
trip had greatly helped his condition

De BOLTS VACATION
PUT OFF To 1910

Judge De Bolt didn It get his vacation
after all. He has not had one for thir-
teen years, and, although he says he
is not a believer in vacations as a gen
eral rule, yet he had made up his mind
that, after thirteen years of continuous
service, he owed it to himself to take
few days off and rest up.
The Judge has never even been to
the volcano, and he is very anxious to
see it. So he planned that he would
leave on the Mauna Kea on the 18th
and run down to Hilo and stay over one
steamer, which was as long as he fig
ured that he could be happy away from
his law books and the courtroom.
But the best laid plans. The con-
spiracy case stretched over into the
night of the 18th, and the Judge could
not get away. And as the new term is
so close at hand, Judge De Bolt has
concluded that he viii have to make it
fourteen years straight, anyway. But

NEED STENOGRAPH[R
FOR CIRCUIT COURT

The circuit courts of this circuit are
short one stenographer. Colonel Jones
resigned his position as stenographer
when he accepted the position of Ad-
jutant General of the National Guard
of Hawaii, being unable to draw two
salaries, and nobody has been appointed
in his place as yet.
Judge Robinson, who has the appoint
ing of a stenographer, says he doesn It
know whom to appoint. Male stenog-
raphers are scarce, in addition to which
court reporting is in different class
from ordinary commercial stenography,
and it takes special knowledge to en-
able a man to do it satisfactorily. A
woman will hardly do, as in the circuit
court much of the testimony is of a
character that few women would care
to listen to.
Since his resignation, Colonel Jones
has been working at a per diem, acting
as stenographer when he was called in
for the purpose. But he is now away
with the rife team at Camp Perry, and
the courts are having hard time to
get along with only two men on duty.

HONOLULU FEELS
TARIFF CHANGES
Cigars Have Come Down, but
Liquors Are Now
Higher.

The effects of the new tariff schedule
are already being felt in Honolulu in
the prices of goods.
The price of Manila cigars, for in
stance, has dropped during the past
week about fifty per cent. Manilas
were selling here before at the rate
of three for a quarter. The price now
is FIVE for quarter, and it is said some
stores are giving the even half dozen
for two bits. This is already having
an appreciable effect upon the cheaper
grades of domestic cigars, which are
obliged to meet the lower price of the
imported article, and it is probable that
even the higher grade cigars will be
lowered to some extent in price.
Lee Toma, as was stated in the Ad-
vertiser some days ago, had $4,000
Manila cigars in the bonded warehouse
when the new tariff went into effect,
and, under ruling of the Treasury
Department, may now get them out
free. This accounts for the sudden
drop in price of the cigars, as had it
been necessary to bring them all the
way from the Philippines, it would
have been several weeks, anyway, be-
fore there could have been any change
in the price. Besides Lee Toma IS
cigars. there are many thousand at the
custom house that belong to other i'm
porters.
Liquors have also shown very sud
denly the effects of the new tariff, but
in the case of such goods the change
in price has been upward instead of
downward The new tariff raises the
revenue on all spirituous liquors thirty
five cents per gallon above the revenue
duty that prevailed before the new
law went into effect Of course, the
liquor men think that they must get
this back. But they do not stop there.
The price of gins and WHISTLES, and
brandies has been advanced locally to
the consumer on an average of twenty
five cents bottle. AS there are five
"quart" bottles to the gallon, this
means that the consumer is paying
$1.25 a gallon more for the goods than
he was before and that, notwithstand-
ing the increased revenue tax, the deal
ers are making ninety cents clear per
gallon on the change. All of which is
very fine for the dealers but not so
pleasant for those who have to make
up the difference and then some.
