nine thousand pair of bird wings
were seized at the same time. This
is the information received here last
night by cable from Captain Jacobs.
commanding the United states reyc-
nue. cutter Thetis.
Repeated rumors that bird poach-
ing was being practised on Laysan
Island and the other islands of the
same group induced the government
to send the Thetis to the scene of
the difficulty to make an investiga-
ton. The result was the capture of
The poachers."
The coniiscation of bird skins
made by the Thetis will be the first
shipment of am size of this com.
modify ever received here.
The matter of their disposal will
come up before the Treasury De-
partmcnt.
II Is understood that there Is no
precedent to work from in attempt
ing to figure out means OF dispos-
ing of the several hundred thou
sands OF bird skins.
There is no market for the arti-
Gle at Honolulu nor on the mainland
as far as Is known. The Japanese
who have succeeded In the past In
poaching on the neighboring bird
islands are said To have found a
ready and profitable market for the
feathers and skins IN France.
Upon arrival, the Thetis will turn
over the bird skins to the local GUS
toms officials. Negotiations are un-
derstood ms already going on be-
tween the Treasury Department at
Washington and the Honolulu GUS
toms Office.
Until definite instructions are re-
ceived from Washington. the local
officials have little to give out.

CONGRESSMAN MARTIN, in an interview W
at Deadwood the first of the week ex-
planning the republican defeat in some
states this fall, calls attention TO the fact
that insurgency" alone should not be
held responsible. There has not been
much insurgency manifest" says Mr..
Martin ''in Maine, Massachusetts, Con.
necticut, New Jersey and Ohio. bat we
have had crushing losses In all Of these
states. In Kansas, Iowa, Wisconin,
Minnesota, the Dakotas and Nebraska,
where progressive ideas have been most
i'll evidence, the people have returned
solid republican majorities to congress
with two or three exceptions" Tariff
revision and industrial inequalities and
unfairness, are largely responsible for
republican defeat, in Mr. Martins
opinion. yet iE curing these inequ, iities
he believes more has been done during
the Roosevelt and Taft administrations

The Burbank Church Burned

AS noted 10 our Burbank correspOD.
dsnce the church at Burbank was en-
tirely destroyed by fire cary Sunday
morning. The origin of the fire is un-
KNOWN although we hear reports hint
Jog strongly at incendiarism. The
matter will no doubt be carefully in
Vestigated Ey State Fire Marshal Graft
The total loss must be something like
"a 600, with insurance OF about 81, 900
and an lncumbrance of $l7O0.
The church was built 10 1904 through
the efforts of Rev. j. NJ. Rupp, then
pastor OF the Baptist church here. 1t
was away beyond the needs of the COM
munity, and on this account and on &C.
count OF the debt being too large TO be
cancelled by any appropriation the
Baptist Church Building society might
be willing TO grant, no appropriation
was ever made. la consequence the
building in two or three years passed
entirely out from under the control OF
the Baptist people and it has had a
varied experience since. The Bur bank
people were afraid to support any kind
OF relig ious organization for fear this
debt wo2ld be saddled upon them, so
half or more OF the time the chdrch
has been unused. It has always been q
standing monument of the folly of zeal
even in a good cause untempered by
any trace of good business judgment.

The progressive" republican news
papers were inclined to account for Con-
gresham Burke'S large vote at the June
primaries by saying the democrats voted
for him so as to put the republicans in
the hole. Apparently it was pretty
good "hole" to be put into, as Mr.. Burke
was reelected by the largest majority of
any officer on the state ticket. The
same democrats that voted for him in
June must also have voted for him in
November. The fact of the matter is
the South Dakota voter has found out
just where to fiud Mr.. Burke, that he at
tends strictly to his knitting and that he
is TOO valuable a man for the state to lose
his services. He is already being pushed
as candidate for United States senator
,to succeed Senator Gamble two years
