THE KAHUKU RIOT WAS WAR

slaughter, and lchigoro was sentenced
TO death. Efforts were made on his
behalf from time to time, and he was
reprieved several times. II has been
claimed that the fight was fair one,
and there was no premeditated MUIR
der. The Chinese were just as likely
to have killed the Japanese The chal-
lenge, so il is said, came from the
Chinese, and the evidence for the pro-
secution was by Chinese witnesses.
An investigation held some time ago
went TO show that both sides fought
in the battle, and were, therefore,
equally to blame. There was no de-
liberate murder on the part of the ia
panese The three men who were SEN
fenced for manslaughter have been
pardoneu, and two years ago Ichigoro
had his sentence reduced to ten years
Imprisonment.
He still, therefore, has eight more
years to serve, but the feeling among
the japanese and other members of
the community is that he has been
sufficiently punished for his part in
the riot, so it is prayed that he will
be pardoned Immediately. The peti.
ton for a pardon forwarded to the
} Governor has been signed by all the
leading Japanese, and the decision of
the governor after his conference with
Secretary Mott-Smith early next week,
is awaited with interest.

MONGOLIA WITH BIC PARTY
OF TOURISTS MAKES LONG STAY

Honolulu is as follows: Miss Emma K.
Lewis, Mrs. c. F. Raab, Mrs. Bert Ho-
mig and child, Mrs. Grace Mcleod, Ell
mer f. Wilson, c. F. Raab, Miss An
ME H. Lewis and Miss Lois Wilson.
With 1900 tons of cargo to dis
charge and 2,4OO punches of bananas,
600 cases of pineapples and a quantity
of miscellaneous cargo to load for San
Francisco it is impossible for the YES
sci to leave Honolulu on schedule
time. She is expected to leave at ten
tomorrow morning, which will give
the Examiner party time to make a
more comprehensive tour of the is
land. Early this morning members
of the party set out to view the city
and it's surroundings, trips being made
to the most important tourist resorts.

An echo of the China-Japan war has
just been heard in Honolulu by the
presentation of a petition to Governor
Frear by Attorney Lorrin Andrews at
the instance of many of the leading ia
panese of this city The petition asks
that Ihara Ichigoro. who was senten-
ced to death in 1899 and afterwards
repreved and sentenced TO ten years
Imprisonment, be released from Jail
so far the Governor has not given his
reply, but Il is hoped that he will do
so during next week.
Il will no doubt be recalled that at
the conclusion of the war between
Japan and China there were some
very hard feelings exhibited among
the members of each nationality in
Honolulu, and as a result there was a
good deal of friction. On Kahuku
plantation particularly was this ILL
feeling manifested, and after several
clashes, the Chinese, so It was alleged
at the time, invited the Japanese to
an open combat The challenge was
accepted, and fierce fight took place
on Sunday, March 26 1899. Several
of the Chinese were killed and serious
ly wounded, and FIVE japanese were
arrested on a charge of having caused
the deaths of fhesp mon

three of them were convicted of man

Ten I. w. VS. were brought to

had not been charged with speaking
on the streets. They were Italian
workingmen who had been employ
ed as floor layers on the new
Sacred Heart hospital, at Eighth

Trouble has been brewing ever
since Thursday among the Italians
who have been laying the mosaic
floors at the big building. At that
time, according to the story, two
men were discharged for incompe-
tency by Gus Novelli, the boss.
1t is said that the man who were
discharged became very angry and
threatened to shoot any of the men
who should come back to work on
Friday; a threat which kept part
of the men from work on that

Dr. John O'Shea, the physician in

nital in the daytime and $40 at

o. E. Kenyon, the well known

in a suit before Judge w. A
Huneke today. Kenyon is being
sued by Thomas Golden to recover
the amount secured on a Judgment
against him by a Mrs. Feeder on
a lot purchased from Kenyon.
Kenyon sold lot in Lower Cross
ing addition to Golden, giving him
a warranty deed. Golden in turn
sold it to Mrs. Feeder, who sought
to turn the property over to the
North Coast Railroad Co. The rail
road company refused to accept
Mrs. Feeders deed, claiming that
it was no good, as Kenyon had al
ready given a man named Smith
deed to the property before selling
it to Golden.
Mrs. Fodder recovered from
Golden, who, in turn, asks that Ken
yon satisfy the judgment and the
costs in the two cases.

BIG HOTEL Wanted

~ believe the time is ripe for the

women who work in stores, iaun-
dries and offices and restaurants"

Yes, | am heartily in favor of
such plan, and | believe there are
individuals here who would lend
their support to it," continued the
lady, in her earnest way. There
is one good hotel for women here
now, but it is not large enough. 1t
accommodates only 40 persons.
THE women who work should
have a place where they can do
their sewing and laundry and have
the many other privileges which
are so much appreciated by women.
1t could be made a self supporting
institution in a short time. At the
same time the working girls, who in
many cases do not receive high
wages. would have the accommo-
dations at a comparatively low
cost"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24-In ex-
pressing his deep interest in the
subject of the increased and ever
increasing cost of living, President
Taft was speaking from a personal
as well as from national view
point. His own pocket is affected
just as are the pockets of the So
100000 and more citizens of the
country. Day by day. on the White
House table, he had before him OBJ
ject lessons that speak more elo-
quently than words or than tables
of statistics. His bills from the
butcher, baker and candlestick-
maker" furnish all the written evil
dence necessary.
The Taft family is not extrava-
giant. Its members live we'll, but
plainly. Neither do they do much
entertaining. When President
Roosevelt occupied the White
House there was dinner or func-
ton of some kind almost daily. The
present routine of life in teh execu-
tive mansion approXimates more to
the Mckinley order of things than
to the Roosveltian. Nevertheless,
even living economically, the ex-
penditures for the table of a presi-
dent are considerable, so the ques-
ton of constant increase in food
prices is very live one for Mr..
Taft

Mrs. Jeffreys a Close Buyer.

WI o. oc'iiCJS q SioSc buyer.
In purchasing edibles for the
White House table, Mrs. Jeffreys,
the hOusekeeper, to whom this duty
is assigned, has only one instruc-
ton; Buy the best" Being
shreWd purchaser she does what
other clever housekeepers do
buys the best at the lowest price.
She distributes her trade among
several merchants, getting this or
that article where it can be bought
to advantage. In President Roose-
velt's time, Pinckney, the colored
functiOnary, who did most of the
buying, dealt with one man, the
same who had supplied Mrs, Roose-
welt when her husband was a civil
service commissioner.
Nevertheless, even with this adj
vantage, President Taft finds that
he is paying an increase over the
prices which obtained during the
earlier days Of the Roosevelt
regime and the latter days of Presi-
dent Mckinleys administration of
from % per cent. upward to 300
per cent. To take specific in
stances, for the eggs which he eats
for breakfast. Mr. Taft has to pay
at least 40 cents dozen, some
times more, where less than ten
years ago his predecessors could
obtain them for 2S cents. For the
bacon which sometimes accom-
panies the eggs he is paying %
cents pound against the 10 cents
of McKinley's time. Or, if he
should have a slice or two of Smith
field ham it has cost him at the
rate of 80 cents a pound, while
President Roosevelt once enjoyed
the same dish at 10 cents a pound
