mission to supervise big combinations
The message is a standpat document from
beginning to end-one that would have been
approved by John d. Rockefeller of the
Standard Oil Company, J. P Morgan of the
Money Trust or any of the other pirates who
run the Trusts, as we'll as our government.
The Tariff, the question that is now the
question, was not even ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
mistake that may cost Mr. Taft dearly before
the next campaign is over
In defending the Sherman law the Presi-
dent pretends to believe that the Standard
Oil and Tobacco Trust decisions will work
wonders-that the pretended dissolution of
these two Trusts is real, and that the subsid-
larry companies will soon be in competition
with each other as we'll as with the mother
company-that under a separate management
for each Of the former subsidiaries competi-
ton cannot be avoided.
According to Mr.. Taft all we have to do is
to patiently wait and the Trusts will soon be
converted and turn benefactors-in fact al
ready the other Trusts are seeking light and
want to get religion.
For Mr. Taft to go before the people with
such an argument shows how completely the
standpatters have him under their control
The people, as we'll as Mr.. Taft, know that
the decision of the Supreme Court in the two
Trust cases has not hurt the Trusts one bit
it has not decreased the value of their stock
one penny-it has not lowered the price of
their goods will not lower the amount of
their dividends.
While each supposed independent that was
formerly subsidiary company of the Stand
ard Oil Company of New Jersey may have
different manager in name. they will all have
the same old management in fact-the orders
that will control the price to the consumer
will still come from number 26 Broadway,
New York City, and the money that the con
sumner pays for his oil and other products of
the former Trust will go back to the same
place where they went when John D. Rookie
Teller was the head of the monster Standard
Oil Company
Mr.. Taft also gave a clean bill of health to
every Trust official who has violated the Grim
inal part of the Sherman anti Trust LAWN
saying that now the decision of the Supreme
Court has made the statute so clear that all
can understand the meaning of it and those
who hereafter wilfully violate it, lay them
selves liable to criminal prosecution, he vir-
tually says that those who have been wilfully
violating it for twenty years-up to the time
the Supreme Court handed down it's decision
will not be prosecuted.
In plain words, the big thieves may keep
the millions that thew have stolen so far with
out fear of prosecution, but if they continue
to steal at the same rate hereafter the govern

LHeHC may IeeI CalleQ upon TO prosecute them

The Presidents message may be summed up
as a lay down to the Trusts surrender to
Wall oCreet interests.
The government is again after the Beef
Trust officials-the same Beef Trust officials
with the same case against them that the gov
eminent started about ten years ago.
Every time the Administration gets in
hole and wants to divert public opinion-es-
pecially about election time-it revives the
prosecution of the Beef Trust-the Depart
ment of Justice gets hustle on and we are
almost convinced that the wheels of Justice
will land j. Ogden Armour, Louis Swift, one
Of the Morris family, and number of other

For ten years we have been eagerly looking
forward to the day when justice would be

an exorbitant price on one of the main neces-
saries Of life-the gang that butchers meat at
the Chicago stock yards, ships it by rail to
New York and from New York to England by
water, and then sells it in England cheaper
than the same quality of meat is sold in Chi
cago, where it is butchered
Well, as We said at the beginning. the gov
eminent is after this same Beef Trust crowd
again-the case has progressed so far this time
that the selection of jurors has begun-after
ten years of technicalities and other lodges,
the government has actually advanced far
enough to take up the preliminaries to secur-
ing jury to try the case.
But mind you, the case will not be ended
even this time before another year rolls
around, for there is a long stretch between Sc

To give some idea of how these prosecutions
drag along, it is only necessary to state that
it will take the government at least one month
to present all Of it's evidence against the pack

EMPIRES STRONG BILL
BRINGS GOOD HOUSES

Large houses are a habit at the En-
pire these days and nights. The pro
gram is good throughout. The Mus
ical Bentleys continue as favorites.
Their long repertoire has enabled
them to make two changes of program
each week, and to their repertoire they
are gradually adding Hawaiian selec-
tons. The Bentleys tonight will de-
dictate "The Papaia Rag" their own
composition, to that popular Hawaiian
fruit, the favorite among tourists.
They will also play the Lion du Bal
Sounds from the ballroom), La Pa
loma," by request, and a medley u
popular airs.
Gertrude Eulalie and her four pref
ty singing soubrettes, will present ne%
songs and dances. Eulalie is a grace
full danseuse, and particularly good as
toe dancer. Crawford and Meeker
the comedians, have a new lot of Jokes
and songs and George Stanley more
ballads.
The amateur nights will be discon,
tinued at the Empire.

THE NOVELTY PAU.

AS a result of the theatrical COM
bine, the Novelty concluded it's run
last evening. Many will regret to
hear of the demise of this little thea
ter, for Manager Chong has always
provided an excellent show. 1t is
we'll known that the Novelty had a
following that would have patronized
the entertainments provided, no mat
ter how many counter attractions
there were. But the Novelty, being
one of the smallest of the theaters,
had to be sacrificed. This was in
evitable, and it is no reflection on the
management or the entertainers that
it has been closed. 1t was CONNER
cial transaction, and Manager Chong
retires from his semi-public po
sition to a place that has JUS
as many responsibilities, and where
he can still materially assist
in catering to the theatrical taste
of the public. The passing of the
Novelty is the loss of an old landmark,
for it is almost certain that it will
never be re-opened as a playhouse.
Perhaps it will pass into the dignity
of a store, but its gay days are gone.

The ceremony on the deck of the
West Virginia was carried out with
the usual formalities of saluting guns,
! but for the officers and men Of the
Navy who stood at attention on the
decks of the four cruisers the occasion
was peculiarly unhappy, owing to the
charges of immortality under which
the retiring Admiral leaves active
duty.
at may be that 1t is better for the
Navy that this thing should have been
given frank publication, rather than to
have it known that it had been sup
pressed, but every one of us feels the
situation keenly," one of the officers
of the fleet said after the ceremony Of

At 1870 o'clock the commanding
officers of the Pennsylvania, California
and Maryland reported on board the

Thomas was also present, and Rear
Admiral Barry stood on the quarter

THE BILIOUS NEW ERA.

Tonight's change of bill at the BIZ
iou will reflect some of the initial eff
fects of the theatrical combine, for the
majority of the performers from the
Novelty will go into the bill. The
Moor, K. Hassan Ben Abdic and Con-
chita Carrauza will be the additions.
The former is rightly named the iron
iawed, while the latter is a singer ol
Spanish songs. Both performers had
become favorites at the Novelty, and
no doubt they will prove popular at
the Bijou.
In addition to the new people there
will be a change of bill by Burke and
Burke, the Little Aflague Sisters, r.
Kipling, Joe Carroll and Jones and
Greiner. There will be some new
motion pictures as well, while the or
chestra win render some up to-date
music.

CHINESE SHOW
At THE KIRMESS

A Chinese wedding is one OF the
curious and interesting spectacles of
Hawaii which comparatively few peo-
pie, even Old residents of the islands,
have ever had an opportunity to wit
ness. But on the eighteenth of the
coming month the chance will be af-
forded all who will to see the most in
teresting feature of a Chinese we'd
ding,-the bridal march.
This will take place in the Chinese
booth at the Mid-Pacific klrmess Miss
| Vera Damon and the oth.r ladies who
are working with her on the com
mittee having that boob in charge
are making great preparations to in
sure the Chinese exhibit in the street
of the nations being one of the most
gorgeous apd elaborate spectacles of
the entire Kirmess. The decorations
will be especially rich and voluptuous.
Entering through a great octagonal
entrance about thirty feet high, of the
kind that is peculiar to the land of
His Heavenly Majesty the visitor will
find himself in a beautiful Chinese tea
garden, Respondent with flowers and
graceful, Stately bamboos. The en-
trance itself will be decorated with
the gorgeous yellow, golden and red
dragon flags of China and will itself
be worth going to the Kirmess to see.
Tables will be scattered throughout
the tea garden, at which will be serv-
ed the finest of Chinese tea by charm
ing attendants dressed in Chinese cos
tunes. That the appointments will
be perfect is undoubted, for be it
known that a number of the ladies
who will be in attendance are them
selves Chinese, the wives and daugh-
ters of the Chinese merchants of Ho-
nolulu
Besides the delicious brew of the
tea leaf, the visitors to the Chinese
booth will be afforded an opportunity
to purchase packages of the finest
teas grown in the several provinces Of
the Chinese Empire. A strange and
beautiful legend is connected with
each of these varieties of tea, and the
legends will be sold by story-tellers
who know how to paint pictures in
words.
The great feature of the booth will
be the Chinese bridal procession, in
which native born Chinese will take
part. Clothed in the rich and beauti-
full costumes of China, the bridal party
will march across the stage to the
wild, weird music of a Chinese Orches-
ira. The beautiful and beaming
bride will, as is the custom in China,
will be carried in an deliberately de-
corated Sedan chair by Chinese bear
ers, and will be followed by long
retinue of ladies clother in the holt
day costume of the Empire presided
over at present by little Pu vi.
Miss Vera Damon will within short
time announce the names Of the other
ladies who are on her committee. They
are all working hard now to make the
Chinese booth one of the big success
es of the occasion, and from what has
already been told, it is certain that no
one can well afford not to visit this
little bit OF China that will be on ex-
hibition at the old Fishmarket on Fe-
bruary IS.
