Would You Be willing TO Wind Up
Clock for Three Dollars a Day?

SOME time ago, as you may remember, 1t
was stated in this paper that Lon Livingston,
as member of the Appropriations Commit
tee, voted to give Washington blacksmith
eighty dollars for each horse that he shod
during the year for the Government.
Out in Illinois they are uncovering some
very interesting things In regard to graft at
the State House. Some of these exposures re-
mind me of the official report of Mr.. Lee Bar
ron, whose appointment as keeper of the Cap
itol Building and grounds, was secured by r.
F. Duckworth. Read the following:
"That enough jantors policemen, and door
keepers the payroll to allot four to each
member of the Legislature
THAT thirteen men were employed to look
after the ventilation in the House and Senate
chambers-that is, to raise or lower the dozen
side windows to accommodate the changing needs
of the lawmakers breathing apparatus.
THAT one man drew So a day for winding
clock a week
''That another man, 60 years old, black
smith by trade the payroll a stenog
rapher for SO day He is said to have been in
Springfield twice during the sesson-to draw his
pay since at other times his blacksmithing inter-
fered with his shorthand duties"
If the Committee on Public Property will
examine the books and vouchers of our sleepy
eyed brother, and will summon the men who
signed his vouchers and were carried upon his
payroll, my opinion is that they will find
blacksmiths and clock -winders, similar to
those in Washington City and Springfield,
Illinois.
Eleven thousand dollars is pile of money
to spend on two rooms, when nothing more is
done to them than to freshen them up and lay
down new carpets Fifteen thousand dollars
a year seems a huge sum to pay to servitors
and watchmen of the Capitol Building and
the Governors Mansion.

rett an apology-a prompt and abject apology
for insinuating that he is responsible for
the crookedness of Duclxworth and Lee.

page of Ducks paper again, it is to be hoped
that he will tell us what became of that two
thousand dollars of Union funds used by
Duckworth.

In the Barron case there had been no In
vestigation, and no charges preferred by

preliminary investigation, similar to that
of a Grand Jury. Had these Investigations
been made, and anything wrong been found
in Mr.. Barron's office, definite charges would
have been made, and he would have been en-
titled to public trial.

world why Duckworth hates Dan Sully and
his plan is, that they would compete with the
Amalgamated Warehouse Company and with
such twelve per cent. banks as that at Union

A Word of Kindly AdmOnitiOn TO
the H0ke Smith Legislature
CONCLUDED FROM PAGE NINE)

Constitution, your conduct will be a handicap
to your candidate for Governor. Everybody
knows That you lynched McLendon at his spe-
cal request; and they will blame Governor
Smith for your failure to approve the In
come Tax, because it will be natural con-
clusion arrived at by old Mr.. Peepul, that,
had Hoke Smith asked you to ratify the In
come Tax amendment, you would have done
so.
It was understood that the Ex-Governor
had decided not to make the race against
Little Joseph and that his reasons were
personal and private. By a sympathetic
public this was taken to mean that he feared
for Mrs Smiths life, in case of another hot
battle over the office which he won in 1906,
and lost in 1908. Therefore, gentlemen, you
shouldered heavy responsibility when you
insisted on his changing his mind. You feel
that way don't you? You want to help him
to WINS it not so? Then let me give you a
piece of disinterested advice:
Rat5fy that Sixteenth amendment aOhlcb
authorizes Congress to tac the incomes Of bll-
Honai7,es, or 1t acW hurt Hohe Smith.
Old Man Peepul will reason with himself,
like this:
eff Hoke had wanted his friends In the
Legislature to ratify that amendment, they
would have done it, for they are the same
men who pulled him into the race, and who
lynched McLendon, at his special request.
Gentlemen, do you remember the Hoke
Smith platform of 1906? Do you recall what
it was that caused me to yoke up with your
friend Smith? We promised to do certain
things for Old Man Peepul, didn't we! Dis
franchisement of the negro wasn't the only
issue in that fierce fight. The truth of the
business is, that Watson emphasized one
thing, and Hoke, another The former laid
+bo Crroo for Ctr,occ on tho OpOrO OuoStIOn the
latter, on freight rates. When the Hoke
Smith forces met in Macon in the autumn of
1906, they put into their platform: eve de-
naa7od the IMMEDIATE reduction Of freight
rates from se0-pOrts to interior tOaOnS, or
words to that effect.
You will remember that your provocatlon
for lynching McLendon was that he had not,
as you contended, kept faith with Governor
Smith in regard to that plank IN your plat
form Now without squabbling any more as
to whether you did right in disgracing and
putting a political end to McLendon, let me
ask you fair question:
Wig haven't YOU done something to keep
the pledge that qoaS made to old Man Peepmz,
IN that Macon pzatf0rm? The Railroad Com
mission and it's attorney are Hoke Smith men
that is to say majority of the Commits
sioners are. The Legislature is Hoke Smith
organization. Now why is it that the two
bodies, both having jurisdiction over rate
making, and both being composed Of a oc0rt-
ing majority Of Hohe Smith men, haze not
made the slightest effort to redeem that Hohe
Smith pledge upon aOh5ch he laid the greatest
emphasis during his campaign?
1t is exceedingly doubtful whether we can
elect, this fall, another Legislature so denoted
to H0he Smith, as yourselves. | greatly fear
that it would be impossible,to elect majority

COM'L. DROPS;
ALL ARE WEAK

Hawaiian Commercials drop is the
feature Of the 10 al stock market to-
day. This security is weak on the
Honilulu exchange. and news from
San Francisco Is that 1t is even
weaker there.
Today the price dropped to 80
fiat. Between boards the following
sales were made: Ten shares at
1915, ninety at 35. sixty at 35 and
two hundred and fifty at 30.
Only one sale on the board was
recorded today, Oahu selling at
29.50 Two hundred and sixty
shares of Oahu had previously
changed hands at 29.625. A further
drop in Pioneer was noted, and the
prediction is made that all of these
securities will weaken. Waialua
which has rallied somewhat, dropped
OF to 1850.
The entire market was sluggish
the volume of sales being slight, and

Cruel Driver
gets FINED

At the poli,e court this morning
Charlie All Foo, hack driver, was
charged with, and found guilty of,
cruelty to animals. He was fined
$40 and costs, and told to give his
horse a spell and allow 1t to rest up
for while.
II was Mrs. Church who, yester-
day, drew the attention of Miss Rose
Dawson to the state of the horse,
which had simply baked and given
up all hope of dragging four heavy
men up the Manoa hill. The driver
was arrested and taken to the police
station.
This morning Mrs. Church was on
the witness stand at the police court.
and she described the state of the
horse and the manner in which 1t
had been beaten when II could not
go any further. According to Mrs.
Church, the driver tried to go up
the hill at gallon, but only reach
ed half way, when the horse threw
up the sponge. The whip was then
applied and other methods of tor
ture" brought into vogue.
Miss Dawson, on the witness
stand, said that the horse looked as
II 1.-The tail had been driven OFF II"
The animal, in Witness opinion, was
in bad way and the whipping that
1t got was unmerciful.
The defendant, on oath, claimed
that he had only ton he'd the horse
with the whip in order to make him
pull better. This story did not go
with the Judge, however, and he
found the defendant guilty and fined
the man as related.
The horse is in poor condition Mt
present and rather weak; a spell In
a paddock will soon fix II up.
