fight for you" l would ask the
people without a backbone, What
moral value do you place on your
self? Since modesty forbids you to
speak, | will let the Lord speak. In
Rev. 3:16 He gives their values as
follows: Because thou art luke
warm, and neither cold nor hot, |
will spew thee out Of my mouth"
They are worthless in his sight and
He throws them upon the old scrap
pile and | will leave them there.
Hence the harm done is that it in
creased the size of the Lords scrap
pile. But don't worry, the Lord
will know how to dispose Of his scrap
pile.
Let it be known to the people of
North Redwood that every move of
the dry voters is perfectly straight
which cannot be said of the vets
who were too big towards to meet
us fair and square on a license vote.
We have the satisfaction that we
can look straight into the face of
our God and into the eyes of our
fellow men which our crooked oppo-
nents cannot do. When you come
to vote, if you do not wish to sub
stitute names of such of whom you
know where they stand for those on
the ticket who would not say whe-
Their they are for or against the sa-
loon. scratch at least every name
on the ticket who hides his real atti-
tude, for the age when the people
bought the cat in the bag is past,
and the age when people will vote
for men in the bag hasn't come yet.
With holy Indignation scratch the
name of every man in the bag, and
if you must deposit your ballot with
every name scratched, you will then
at least have the secret conscious
ness of not having polluted your
hands with the guilt of the iniquity
of this place.
And here is the conclusion of the
whole matter. The man that has
no right to vote for or against the
license Of saloon but patronizes
one is a DOL. The man who has a
right vote on license or no license
and votes in favor Of license and
then patronizes it himself is an
i d o t, for he walks into his own
trap. But the man who would not
patronize any saloon because he be-
lieves that it destroys body and soul
of its patrons and yet votes for the
saloon to set trap for the fool and
the idiot to walk into is a d d.
beat! Which of the three would
you rather be? | wouldn't be any
of them. but I'll tell you it will go
hardest with the dead-beat on the
day of judgment.
In conclusion | would say to the
business men of North Redwood, let
me assure you that you have no
greater friend than the writer of
this article. You may think that
chastised you in this article. but let
it be known to you that | did it with
the same spirit that the Lord does
when he declares to the apostle,
Whom the Lord loveth, He chas-

FORMOSA SENDING
SUGAR,TO CANADA

Advices from Japan give the fol-
lowing; A telegram has reached To
kyo to the effect that the Ensuiko
Sugar Refining Company of Formosa
has signed a contract to supply a Ca
madam sugar merchant at Vancouv-
err with 5000 bags (about 1000 tons)
of crude sugar as a trial consign-
ment. The export of Formosan SUI
gar to Canada, says the Mainichi, has
long been talked of, and it has now
at last been realized. The associat-
ed crude sugar producers of Formosa
maintain that the extension of the
market of their sugar need not nee
essarily be confined TO China, apd
state that they will enter in compe-
tition in India with Java sugar 1t
may not be a difficult task for For
mosan sugar to be offered in Canada
side by side with the Java product
if no higher duty is imposed, and
reasonable freight is charged.
Formerly a prohibitive duty was
imposed on sugar imported into
countries belonging to the Sugar I'm
ion of Brussels from any country not
in the Union Last year the British
Government decided not to impose
a prohibitive duty on crude sugar I'M
ported into Great Britain and her pos
sessions from Japan, so that no hes
Iitation should be shown in exporting
crude sugar to British territory.

MOUNTAIN KING
OPTIONS SOUGHT

Fifteen cent options on Mountain
King mining stock are being diligently
hunted by local spectators. These
evidences of wealth were issued along
with $4,000 of treasury stock sold
at par to. raise money for putting the
plant in working shape after it was
devastated by flood a year or two
ago. They are negotiable apart from
the shares of stock Lately, as re-
ported in The Star, Mountain King,
with only nineteen stamps working,
cleaned up $4,000 of gold in four weeks,
and this news Immediately sent the
stock up to eighty cents in Honolulu,
where for some time it had been re-
garded of merely souvenir value. Later
reports have represented holders as
asking one dollar a share. AS the
crusher will soon if it has not al
ready, have all its thirty-four stamps
running, Mountain King is having a
boost.

Gas COMPANY'S
SCHEME DELAYED

A legal obstacle has been met by
the Honolulu Gas Company. Ltd,
with regard to the proposed change
in the capital stock. At the special
meeting of the company on this mat
ter yesterday afternoon, held at the
office of Castle & wilmington, it was
found that the provisions of the law
of 1909 relative to corporations re-
quire that the articles of association
of the company should be amended
to accomplish the purpose in ques-
ton. Accordingly the meeting was
adjourned to future date, when the
necessary steps for reformation of
the articles will be considered. The
scheme of the directors, as reported
some weeks ago, is to call in 100000
of preferred stock and Issue $150,0OO
of new stock, so as to provide $4,000
new capital for improvements.

TRUSTS WILL Be
MADE ABIDING

Henry Clews, in his letter of April
30, argues that the financial market
has discounted in advance the await
ed trust decisions of the Supreme
Court. He says that it's recent de-
cisions against fixed prices and its
unequivocal ruling in the commodity
clause are widely accepted as show
ing the mental attitude of the Su-
rene Court in regard to combinations.
"Other corporations, if this indica-
ton is fulfilled, will also be COMPEL
ed to comply with the provisions Of
the Sherman law, as thus for the
first time definitely determined by
our highest tribunal. But this does
not mean there will be any confisca-
ton of property, or interference with
property rights, whether these prop
erty rights are called goodwill or
selling organization or anything else.
1t simply means that business of our
modern business combinations must
be conducted in a perfectly fair
and legal way, which is a position
that every patriotic citizen will cor
daily approve. At the same time it
should not be forgotten that stock
holders will still retain the full in
trinsic value of their property"

TARIFF SCARE
WILL soon EMO

"As far as the tariff Is concerned"
Henry Clews writes, "the prospects
are that before money is needed for
the crops this retarding influence will
be quite out of the way. The DOM
inant party in the House of Repre-
sentatives is showing a degree of con-
servatism that bespeaks the accom-
plishment of practical results to the
exclusion of merely ideal policies
that mean striving for the unat-
tainable. Best information from
Washington suggests an understand
ing whereby the tariff changes of the
current special session are to be con-
fined to the enactment of the reci
procity arrangement with Canada
and of the so-called farmers free
list. Aside from this, the wool sehed-
ule will most probably receive sever
est revision, while the steel and cot
ton schedules are expected to be ac-
corded more moderate treatment.
With these out of the way, the busl-
ness outlook will unquestionably I'M
prove, and it will simply be repeat
ing history if a substantial wave of
prosperity should take possession of
the mercantile and industrial activt-
ties of the country. 1t will be at
the same time simply repeating the
recent experience of English bust
ness affairs with an accumulated de-
mand that has already been referred
to above. And, furthermore, it will
merely be repeating history if the
financial markets, well in advance,
discount this approaching activity
and prosperity"

DUTCH RIVAL
OF STANDARD OIL

S. F. Call, May 2: The Royal pc
troleum company, a Dutch corpora
ton with a capitalization of $780,,
100000, with wells in every known
oil bearing section in the world, is
about to enter the local field in COM
petition with the Standard oil. AT
ter fighting the Rockefeller interests
in Europe and India, it proposes to
carry the fight straight home, and
for this purpose will open offices in
New York and San Francisco.
Information was received yesterday
by Baron Van Riegerberg Verslpys,
who has been staying at the Palace
hotel, that the Dutch company had
made every arrangement for its in
yasion of the American field, and
that T. Defending, now residing in
London, will take charge of the To-
cal offices. The new managing direc-
tor will leave London in about two
weeks, and will be here within
month.
Van Panthaleon, Baron Van Eek,
another of the company's represen-
tatives in England, will also come
west
The elder Baron Versluys, who
lives in the HagJA, has been connect
ed with the Standard oil interests in
the Netherlands for II years. It is
he who wrote to his son living here
that the Dutch company is to carry
the battle for world supremacy n
petroleum into America.
The managing director of the COM
pany at the Hague is Tonkleer Lou
don, whose brother is, ambassador VI
the Netherlands to this country. The
Ambassador was here two years ago
and made a visit to the oil fields in
the southern part of the state.
The principal wells OF the Dutch
interests are in East India and on
the shores of the Black sea. The
company is closely identified with
the Shell transportation interests,
a Rothschild institution.
Representative of the Royal pc
troleum company made their appear
ance here about six months ago, sell
ing gasoline, but at that time little
heed was paid to their operations,
( In oil circles it is believed that the
coming of the Dutch lends further
confederation to the recent announce
ment that the Rothschilds have an
option on the Associated oil proper
ties and will use these California
holdings as a wedge in forcing the
Standard from its strong position.
The Dutch company pays 80 per
cent dividend and has paid up all its
capital stock.
