ance to the navy of merchant ma
rine. It does not seem possible that
they should SO far forget themselves
as to take steps that will throw the
control of the merchant marine Of
these waters into the hands of the
nearest and most aggressive foreign
competitor.
Our country needs the support OF
men who. prefer their country and its
increased prestige to the prosperity
and the prestige of Japan.
We need citizens who believe In
America, who stand for America and
who see the best future of Hawaii
secured through an ever-increasing
number of American-built and Ha-
waiian-owned steamships.
Let Hawaii stand as the Old Guard
stood for Apprehension, and help
build up the merchant marine, as 1t
has done what it could to build up
the navy.

TAFT SHOULD MOVE With Care,

Circuit Judge De Bolt has receiv-
ed the unanimous endorsement of the
Bar Association for the position OF
Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court.
According to all indications Mr..
De Bolt has no more chance OF re-
ceiving the voluntary endorsement
of the Governor of the Territory or
the approval Of the Chief Justice OF
the Supreme Court than he has Oh
being recommended for the post OF
Associate Justice Of the United
States Supreme Court.
No one'knows this better than the
lombers of the Bar Association who
cnewed their endorsement.
There is every reason to believe
that the Governor did not take the
opportunity to let the public know
Of Justice Wilder's contemplated res
ignation because he was anxious TO
be free from the De Bolt difficulty.
He wanted to talk with the Presi-
dent first.
As the situation now stands, the
President has either to again snap
lis fingers in the face of the Bar
Association and appoint the man
recommended by the Governor. or
strike q middle ground and name a
man who Is neither the Governors
candidate nor the particular selec-
ton of the Bar Association.
The conclusion of the Bar Associa-
ton to stand pat on De Bolt carries
its own inference as TO the measure
of approval that organization has for
the Governors previous recommenda-
ton to the Supreme Bench. The Bar
Association knows that the Governor
did not want De Bolt to I'LL Justice
Ballou's place, and he does not want
De Bolt to I'LL Justice Wilder's place.
Whom the Governor wishes to
name for the position he is able to
keep secret.
The situation Is such, however, as

County Attorneys position was orig

The only local attorneys who rep
resent no defendants on the criminal
calendar are Carl Smith, Ferry and
Heen. or these three Heen seems TO
have the hest chance, as far as can
be judged at present, as Ferry would
probably be no candidate, as he was
rot such when the rest of the 10,
cal attorneys were In the race, and
as Carl Smith has the point against
him that the County Attorney has

Smith just after the occasion when
the Board of Supervisors had stopped
his salary and had withdrawn its
approval of his appointment as Dep

SHIPS and Our NATIONALITY.

There Is just as much cause to
argue for the suspension Of the re-
striction against the immigration OF
japanese as there is to demand the
suspension of the coastwise shipping
laws on the ground that this Terri
tory Is losing money by its inability
to make use of japanese steamers.
Suspension of the rule against the
immigration OF japanese to this Ter
ritory would easily add ten millions
of dollars year to the income OF
this community. It would first re-
duce the price of wages and also al
low more elaborate industrial ex-
pansion. .....
1t would also put the Territory OF
Hawaii more completely in the hands
OF the japanese. .....
Suspension of the coastwise ship

ROBBED SAFE OF THE CASH
Yeggmen Make a Sorry Mess Of the
Postoffice at Fulda.
From FRIDAYS DAN


Safe blowers went after the post
office at Fulda Wednesday night, and
secured about $40 for their nights
work
A telephone message from there to-
day states that the robbers made a
.frightful mess of their work. as the
interior of the building looks as if an
earthquake had taken place, as the
debris is scattered in every direction.
The safe was dynamited, presum-
ably about 1890, as the clock stopped
at that time. Besides the small amount
of money the yeggmen secured q lady's
gold watch, which had been sent by
registered mail. At the present there
is no clue, but inspectors will probably
strike one soon.

heard the explosion, but not having
mad an introduction to the fellows did

Commission Plan Likely to Involve
More Tn q Was Anticipated.
~TrOm MONDAYS Daily.

Minneapolis Journal: Mankato's move
for legislative permission to form a
commission government involves, ac-
cOrding to the MankatO idea, only eX
emption of the city from the opera
tions of the primary law. 1t may in
doubtful whether Il Minnesota city
could form a commission plan of gov
ernment, unless it was first exempted
from the operations of the home rule
amendment and enabling act passed in
pursuance thereof. The constitutional
amendment prescribes that it shall be
a feature of all charters formed under
it that there shall be provided, among
other things, n mayor or chief magis
,trate, and legislative body of either
one or two houses.
1t is a question whether a commits
sion, as ordinarily understood, con-
forms to this requirement. 1t is possi-
ble of course to call the commission a
council and to call the chairman
'mayor" But it is doubtful whether
a committee, composed OF men who are
ex officio executives, is legislative
body as understood in America. 1t
might be in England, where the lead
ing members of the house of commons
are also the leading executive officers
of the government, but it is not neces-
sarily so in America, where there al
ways has been a separation of legis-
lative and executive functions, differ
ent persons being designated to execute
laws from those appointed to formu-
late them.
If the commission idea is to be tried
out in Minnesota, it may be necessary
to do it as was done in Iowa, by Civ
ing express permission through an
amendment to the constitution.

Proceedings Commenced Against the
Sleepy Eye Mill Company.

Involuntary bankruptcy proceedings
against the Sleepy Eye Milling com.

Minneapolis as receiver Saturday after.

fore Judge Milton D. Purdy of the
United States circuit court in Mime
apolis, says The st. Paul Pioneer
Press. Among the petitioning creditors
were the First National Bank of st
Paul and the Security and German
American Banks of Minneapolis. A
report by firm of expert accountants
gave the assets of the Sleepy Eye
company as $l,3OO,OOO, and its liabili.
ties as 100000.
Though the hearing was held in
Minneapolis, the papers in the case
are understood to have been filed in
st. Paul. 1t is the announced intent
of the creditors seeking the receiver
ship to keep the mills running, that
there may be no deterioration through
the loss of trade and good will. To
this end, Receiver Hull will 90 to
Sleepy Eye today to take over the
property of the company there.
The Sleepy Eye milling company
operates a $500 barrel flour mill at
Sleep Eye and a line of twenty seven
grain elevators in Minnesota and North

those of Treasurer Brandt, by the
speed with which the man made his
selection and they determined to
watch him closely.
Only Small Cash Difference.
When quite Il selection had been
tai of the bill, and on footing it up it
came to $9S This was evidently more
than he had expected and at first he
VAS little staggered, as according
to the plan he had laid out that would
only net him So on the deal, but he
decided to go ahead with it anyway,
and offered in payment for the goods
a check for 500. This was drawn on
the Commercial National Bank of Wa
terloo, Iowa, and was made payable
to James Hart, the clerk purporting
to be signed by John F. Warning.
Treasurer Brandt did not pretend
to question the genuiness of the check
to the stranger, although his own
opinion before investigation was that
it was worthless. He smoothed mat
ters out very nicely by saying he had
just locked the safe for the night and
could not open it again, but that if
the man would come in again i'm the
morning he would give him the 81
change due him. This was not what
the stranger had expected but he
could do nothing but acquiesce, and
so he left the check and went out.
agreeing TO return in the morning.
Fake Address Given.
After he had gone a clerk was sent
to the address given on West Second
street where the goods We're to be de
livered, and it was found to be a fic-
titious address, as there was no house
there. This was considered proof con
elusive that the stranger had only
been trying to work the store for
change on the check. The fact that
the man never returned established
the matter beyond a doubt. Mr.
Brandt still has the check in his pos
session and will keep it as Il souvenir
1t is not known whether the fellow
worked or attempted to work any 9th
er store. SO far as Mr.. Brandt is
aware he has not been seen in Vino
ma since lie left their store.
