H|LO SENDS THE
UCl|ER WORD
Harsh Language Directed to
the Attorney-Generars
Department.
PARSONS AND PEPEEKEO
Threat That Hawaii Senators
Will Oppose Confirmation
Of Lindsay.
PARSONS AND PEPEEKEO

Both of the HiIo papers broke out
Last week with hot attacks upon the
attorney generals department in con
neotion with the controversy over
Judge Parson's connection with tbe
Pepeekeo boundary matter, regarding
which there has been much correspond
ence, already published in The Adver-
tiser. Facts CARRIED by the Attorney
General" is the big heading in the
Tribune, while the Herald demands
that Governor Frear interfere and com
pei the attorney generals department
to make amends for It's alleged misrep-
resentation of Circuit Judge Parsons.
The Tribune SAYS that the attorney
general department, "instead of tax
ing the decent and manly course of ac-
knowledging its error, has attempted
to squirm out Of a nasty situation by
direct falsehood and misrepresenta-
ton. This appears to refer TO the
statement coming from the attorney
general 5 office that Judge Parsons was
originally attorney for the Pepeekeo
ga ScbL NOilt lttIiN III jHt btulIdIN MAT Ter.
1t was the fact that Parsons. as bound
airy commissioner, had not handed down
decision that started the row Par
sons, when Deputy Attorney-General
Lymer attempted to call him down. said
he couldn't decide the case because the
attorney general had failed to file a
brief.
After saying that Attorney General
T I'll l.. I
Lvmer' over a fatherly knee and given
him spanking for his part in starting
the rumpus, the Tribune says:
1.-The books of the firm of Smith &
Parsons show that in no instance did
it represent the Pepeekeo Sugar Com
pany in a boundary case, and the only
time the firm during the entire period
Of It's existence did any work for the
Pepeckeo Company was when 1t re
ceived, in May, 1904, the princelv sum
of five dollars for services in an assault
ease. in which there was no appearance
in court and which must, as the size of
the fee indicates, have been a very
trivial matter.
"VeriIv Attorney General Lindsay,
himself a Judge for years. must have
very sordid opinion of judges when he
dares to insinuate that a court might
be Influenced by five dollars-or by any
sum- for the matter of that.
CON the whole the attorney general
and his minions have stopped to the
tactics of the gutter politicians IN their
misguided efforts to evade making a
manly apology for an error which
vouthfulness and ineXperience might
have explained, if not excused. They

GRAFT IN COMMISSION PLAN.
Cedar Rapids, la, Councilman EstI.
mates City lost $4,000.

Cedar Rapids, Aug. IA member
of the city council estimates that the
city has lost by waste and graft more
than $4,000 during the first two and
a half years under the operation Of
the commission plan Of government.
This is not taken to mean that Just
as much might not have been lost un-
der the old plan; but it does mean
that under the careless operation of
the commission plan, with the expo
sure hat was inevitable, because the
plan provides for publicity, the PEG
pie have lost a large sum of money,
and know they have lost it. The
waste and graft are due to the employ
ment OF unnecessary labor, to the pur-
chase of supplies without the proper
restrictions in making the purchases,
to the needless and expensive junket-
ing trips Of the members of the coun.
Gil, and to the alleged letting of con-
tracts that were not bid for on the
basis of economy Of public funds.

"eiG TIM" HOST OF NEWssoYs
Tells Them Newspapers Are Better
Than College Education.

New York, N. Y. - Six thousand
newsboys left the street Sunday af-
ternoon and were the guests Of big
Tim" Sullivan at a local theater where
they remained for the rest of the day
enjoying an "wuxtrie" long bill espe-
cially arranged for their benefit. The
big leader, who was once a newsboy
himself, occupied a box in the theater
and when the "newsies" demanded
that he make a speech he left his seat
and gave them some good advice.
My advice to every newsboy in
this city," he said, lis o to drink
and never tell a lie. And when you're
selling your papers day by day always
keep one back. Read 1t and read Ii
well. for it is better than all the IL
braries in the world. If you do that
you will put yourself OIL an equal foot
ing with the sons of millionaires who
graduate from college"

Prayers for Recovery.

Prayers for the wounded mayors re.

city Sunday. Protestant, Catholic and
Unitarian congregations bowed their
heads while clergymen prayed that he
might be spared. Rev. William Will
kinson, preaching on the grounds of
the uncompleted Episcopal cathedral
of st. John the Divine in the upper
part of the city said in part:
"A free people should make deadly
assaults upon it's officers a capital
crime. Christian men and citizens of
all classes should rise in resentment
against lawlessness and against the
carrying OF concealed weapons. With
three presidents dead by violence and
Mayor Gaynor alive by a miracle, the
Church of God should teach and
preach obedience to law"

cal club former Coroner julius Har.

ROOSEVELT IN 1912

Here is the way Golfers Weekly
sized up the New York situation q few
days before election:
The reaction against Mr.. Roosevelt,
as expressed in the fierce contest in New
York, is not new. There has always
been a reaction against him. and al
ways will be. The election OF Dix will
be a blow at insurgency. but the blow
will not carry far. If Stimson is
beaten, as a ''lesson'' to Roosevelt,
the Oh ances of the colonel's running in
1912 will be increased. because to the
rest of the country the line between the
old wing of the republican party and
the new will be made more sharp, the
situation most likely to bring MIR.
Roosevelt overwhelmingly to the front.
If Stimson wins, on the Other hand,
and the Old Guard is put down, the
chance of Mr.. raft's successful moving
along independent lines will be much
increased. and if he does prove himself
progressive. steady and independent
from now until the spring of 1912 we
fancy Colonel Roosevelt will earnestly
support him for the nomination. The
ex-presiden's only sufficient reason for
running himself again would be that
the tide was toward reaction. and away
from his most cherished faith. Wall
