NEW LAW is EFFECTIVE.
Recall of Telegraph Franks Made I'M
perativ BY National Law.

Robert c. Clowry, president of the
Western I'm on Telegraph company
and Clarence D. Mackay; president OF
the Postal Telegraph company, are
out in circular letter to all holders
of telegraph franks which entitled
them in the past to send free tele-
graph messages of a social or per
sonal character, advising them that
on and after August 18th such franks
cannot be accepted legally by their
companies.
For many years it has been the Gus
tom of these telegraph companies to
ssue books containing stamps some
what similar in appearance to a post
age stamp, each of these stamps en-
titling the holder to send telegram
containing not more than twenty
words.
The recall of these telegraph franks
has been made imperative upon all
telegraph companies by the passage Of
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1910-08-24

the bill amending the Hepburn Act
signed by President Taft, June IS, and
effective sixty days thereafter These
telegraph franks have been issued by
the telegraph companies in former
years practically to three classes of
men, ! the politicians, that is to say
the members of the national congress,
and grading down through the lesser
lights to state legislators; then, of
course, the newspaper men of the
country have been quite generally IA
vored with this form of courtesy,
ranging from the proprietor of a
newspaper down along the line of
neWspaperdom. The third class, who
in the past have enjoyed this frank
ing privilege, were business men
whose concerns did a great deal of
wire work over the lines Now, how
ever, all this is prohibited by law and
every one must pay toll who desires
to send a wire, the only exemptions
made being officers, agents and en-
ployees of the telegraph companies
The railroad officials, it is understood,
will enjoy the same courtesies as
heretofore.

DEPORT RUSSIAN MIGRANTS.

Everyone hopes that the apparent
backing and filling of the authori-
ties in dealing with recently-import-
ed Russian Migrants has behind II
some well-defined. acknowledgement
out scheme for getting these people
out of the Territory and back to
their old homes in the shortest time
possible.
If this is not the case, the atti-
tude of the authorities is absolutely
beyond explanation.
The Russians who are making a
public camping ground of the streets
and the public parks OF the city, who
are living in miserable huts in the
midst of more miserable surround
lngs, are an insult TO the good name
of this city. Their dirt and squalor
smirch more than the persons who
have elected to bury themselves in
the mire of their own folly.
The city, the Territory, the off,
Gals generally, all bear a serious re-
sponsibility In allowing these condl.
tions to continue. a
These Russians are today charge
upon the community, and worse.
They should be sent back to the
country from which they came at the
earliest opportunity. This is de,
manded by the rules of ordinary hui
manity, for no government has a
=. hit to burden the people 1t repre-
ssnts with band of aliens, nor cit
liens, for that matter, who are a
menace to the health, the morals and
the reputation for common sense and
decency possessed by the community
in which fortune may have placed
them.

WOOLLEY and SELF GOVERNMENT.

With characteristic effrontery,
Agent Woolley seriously announces
that the plebiscite on July &c will
be a fine test of the capacity of the
people for self-government."
Mr.. Woolley would have It appear
that the competency of the people
of Hawaii to exercise their constitu,
tional rights was and Is an unknown
quantity, and that the dangerous
power of casting ballot was placed
in their hands without due consider
alton.
Agent Woolley's fine test of self
government" statement was made on
his return to the Territory, and SIM
ply bears out the insulting reflections
that the hired help cast upon the
citizens of Hawaii during the course
of the Congressional hearings. Agent
Woolley was very careful TO avoid
making any reference to the fact
that Hawaii was an independent,
self-noverning, sovereign state before
he knew just where It was on the
map, and in the exercise of its SOW
ereign powers controlled the liquor
business, having as its modern cul-
mination the existing liquor law,
which Agent Woolley himself had to
admit before Congress was the best
licensing law he has ever seen.
The extremists of the Woolley type
should support an amendment to the
constitution of the United States
whereby any person not voting for
prohibition, blind pigs and swipes
would be deprived of their franchise
as falling to meet the Woolley SNUG
estimate on the "hne test of self
government"
IL Is certainly marvellous good for.
tune for the Territory of Hawaii to
have in its midst a gentleman from
Chicago whose sacrificing labors as
an agent at Washington have given
Hawaii an opportunity OF showing
the whole world that 1t is capable
OF self-government-in the Woolley
misunderstanding aside the Incl.
dental and triaing fact that Hawaii
was sovereign state for genera.
tions.
