Would Stop Carrying Concealed
Weapons.

To stamp out the practice of car
rying concealed weapons among
the Italians, Rev A. N. Milanesi,
pastor of the Italian mission of
Wilkes Barre, has evolved a plan
that is attracting wide attention.
The plan is to organize the Italians
for the purpose of putting an end
to the practice OF carrying revolv-
ers, knives or other deadly instru-
ments. The mission leader has
2SI men as members of the organi
cation, and each member is pledged
not only not to carry any deadly
weapon at any time, but to use his
efforts to obtain a similar pledge
from his friends. By this means
the use of such weapons is dis.
couraged, and the number Of crimes
reduced.

SCHOOL CODE PASSES HOUSE.

Regardless OF constitutional re-
quirements, and with all parlia-
mentary rules ignored by the
Speaker, the school code passed the
House on Monday night by vote
of Io7 to So, only three more than
was required. 1t then went to the
Senate for first reading.
This bill was jammed through by
order of the bosses, and it has been
so amended and changed from the
original draft that no one knows
its present form. The object in
which the bosses are specially in
tcrested is the increase of taxes so
ut there will be large fund for
inipulation. No more disgrace
legislation was ever enacted in
state than that which attended
=. passage of this bill. Will the

The Gang and the School Code.

Inebriated with power and reck-
less of retribution. the State and
municipal Machines exhibited un-
restrained their greed for money
and their contempt for public inter
ests and for legislative decorum.
Having eliminated from the school
code pretty much everything of val
tie to the public in it, leaving it
but little more han thinly dis
guised scheme for the increase of
taxation, the puppets who dance at
Harrisburg as the bosses pull the
strings scored a point i'll the prog
ress of the school code bill and then
I25 of them broke from the cham
Der and deserted their post of duty
to thwart an impending rally Of
the opponents of the iniquitous
measure.
Among the I25 were 3S men who
are supposed to represent Philadel-
phia. They understood perfectly
we'll that the whole purpose of the
bill, in the shape in which their
masters directed that they pass it,
was to increase taxation here so
that there may be more money to
appropriate for contracts which will
be given to the bosses themselves.
The pawning of the gas works was
found four years ago to be unpopu-
lar. 1t was feared that even
stronger public hostility might be
shown to the pawning of the water
works. The city debt has been in
creased very heavily iu the last two
years and the constitutional lic:ita-
tion on the debt is being approach
ed To make direct increase of
the tax levy would cost the gang
some popularity. But to use the
public schools as means of getting
more money seems feasible, for the
interest of the people in the schools
is very great.
The methods employed at Har-
risburg have been disgraceful as
the purposes of the bosses are pred
atory. The public interest, the
regularity of procedure, the deco
rum of legislative body, the de-
cency Of men ostensibly represent
ing their constituents, were all
thrown to the winds in wild howl
for more money for the bosses,
scandalous orgy of the men who
bear the mark of the Organization

AGAINST
THE HILONIAN

This morning a guard at the wharf
of the steamship Hilonian was the
mute announcement that the vessel
had been taken in charge by the Unit
ed States Marshal. Work of loading
and the business of the ship were not
interfered with in the least, however,
for all the formality was on account
of a small suit instituted by one Tho
mas Fhys, lately a sailor on the YES
sci, for damages in the sum of $4,000.
AS soon as city business opened up
this morning Castle & Cooke filed a
bond to cover the amount stated and
the attachment was withdrawn.
Fhys was hurt while at boat drill
on a trip of the Hilonian from San
Francisco to this port. He was sent
to the hospital where his expenses
were paid by the steamship company
until his discharge. The suit for dam
ages is based on the claim by Thys
that the appliances of the Hilonian
we're defective and that the accident
and injury to him resulted on that ac-
count. The owners claim that the ap-
planes are all that is required, and
refer as proof of their defense to the
certificate of the examiners at San
Francisco, approving the same.
The case will come up before the
United States commissioner upon the
return of the Hilonian from San Fran
cisco. Fhys will remain in the city
until the hearing is over E. NJ Wat
son is attorney for the libellant.

HAWAIIAN TIES.

The Santa Fe railroad has ordered
two and a half million dollars worth
of railroad ties from Hawaii, and other
western railroads are said to be figur-
| ing upon crossing the Pacific to Sc
cure timber for the maintenance of
road beds. Several eastern roads are
experimenting with cement or con-
crete ties, and various other roads are
anxiously awaiting results, for all of
them seem to realize that the tie tim
Der of hits country is not adequate to
meet the demands of the future.
The Hawaiian wood is called ohia,
and grows in great profusion on the
islands of the Southern Pacific. 1t is
hard and tough and is said to decom-
pose slowly when exposed to the ele-
ments, so slowly in fact that the ties
will not be treated with creosote, as
is coming to be the custom when Anne
rican woods are used.
The purchase of ohia ties by the
Santa Fe also develops another inter
esting feature of commerce. The for
ests of Hawaii are being cleared away
in order that the land may be used
for the production of pineapples. The
pineapple market in this country for
several years, especially the market
for canned goods, has been growing
rapidly, and it is claimed that it will
require hundreds of thousands of acres
Of Hawaii to supply the demand in the
next few years. The fruit is beginning
to be recognized at it's true value as a
food and its production is sufficiently
profitable to justify it's cultivation up
on the large scale
And inasmuch as we produce MANY
things in this country for which the
Hawaiians are willing to exchange
their railroad ties and pineapples, there
is no reason why the exchange should
not prove. profitable for both coun-
tries, and if it is the means of savins
our forests, the advantage will be on
our side.-N. Y. Democrat.
