A FOUR-PLY MONOPOLY.

One of the first facts developed
by the Stanley steel Investigating
committee was that the inner
ring Of steel trust directors ac-
tually dominated the boards Of
directors Of nearly every impor-
tant railroad in the country. Then
it came to light that the same
ruling spirits of the steel trust
also c~O-operated with and practi-
cally dominated Standard Oil.
And now it develops that four
of the six directors of the har-
yester trust are also directors of
the steel trust. In other words,
the steel trust, the railroads, and
Standard Oil and the harvester
trust, Gall star contributors to
Republican campaign funds) are
dominated by the same handful
of men. And these, in turn, take
their orders from one man, Mr..
j. P. Morgan.

uOb uON udIc W Valiy Out bhN
plot to drive DIR. Harvey w.
Wiley from the government SER
vice. v.
This thought must have sug-
gested itself time and again to
the minds Of the men and women
who crowded the Moss mvestiga-
ting committee rooms and heard
DR.. Wiley lay here the startling
facts of a systemized fight
against him because he insisted
that food manufacturers keep
their products pure.
At times, as DR.. Wiley told of
the fierce persecution he had en-
dured, his voice almost broke,
and he could proceed only with
difficulty. At times also the
committee members, utterly
dumbfounded by the Doctors
statements, were at a loss as to
what questions to ask him next.
Not only was it shown that
Doctor Wiley's efforts to serve
the public and protect it from
injurious and poisonous substan-
ces in food preparations had been
absolutely blocked by the
conspirators in the administration
headed by Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wilson and his controlling
influence, Solicitor McCabe, but
that the latest effort to force
Doctor Wiley out of office was
based upon a letter which he
never received and knew nothing
about.
Not boastfully or eagerly, but
in response to questions by
members of the committee, Doc
tor Wiley reeited the universities
at which he had studied, the
great scientific societies at home
and abroad which have honored
him in various ways, and the re-
cital went a long way in reveal
ing to the committee the great
public spirit and sympathy of
this man who possessed a cour-
age in public duty which neither
threats from official sources nor
opposition by the powers Of evil
had been able to break down.
While the whole hearing was a
succession of revelations that
left the committee and specta-
tors thunderstruck, the most as
tonishing testimony came when
DR.. Wiley told of his effort to
prevent the use of alum and
sulphur dioxide in food products.
"Alum used in foods" said
DR.. Wiley, especially in baking
powder, is responsible for the
large amount of constipation that
is prevalent throughout the coun-
try. l considered its use a
serious danger to public health,
and wanted it stopped pending an
investigation. But the other two
members of the referee board
overruled me, as they invariably
did, and the use of Alum is still
permitted.
Another east involved the
S OF sulphur dioxide. Dunlap
and McCabe recommended that
we discontinue the rule requiring
that the presence of this drug be
indicated on the label. AS the
rule had been adopted after a
most exhaustive investigation |

with it would be a grave mis-
take. Dunlap and McCabe re-
voked the rule, however, during

BUCKEYE CLUB
annual Meeting
Pleasant Session at
Weldon Home-0Id
Time Talks.

Ohioans, members Of the Buckeye
club. visiting Ohioans and number
of guests gathered last evening at the
home OF Mr.. and Mrs. w G. Wscdon
for the annual meeting of the Homo
lulu Buckeye Club.
Between nifty and n hundred sons
and daughters OF Ohio were there. and
after the formal business was finished
they made the evening merry with
talks on Ohio of Ohioans, and with
song and story.
Rev w. ID. Wcstervelt, the president
of the society, opened the evenings en-
tertainment with u brief and very in
teresting sketch of the folk lore of the
Hawaiians. This was intended espe-
cially for the visiting Ohioans who are
stopping at Honolulu for few days
while on tour Of the world, but 1t
was new to the great majority OF those
present.
DR.. MERIT, the former president of
oahu College. was the next speaker.
He gave the Impressions OF man who
has come back to Honolulu after an
absence of over twenty years. The
changes that he noted were reminder
OF the very rapid growth OF the city.
Hon. w. A. Cottrill, when called upon
as one OF the most recent Buckeye
men to establish himself In Hawaii,
spoke In the warmest terms of the very
kindly reception he had met in the
city. and especially OF the cordiaiity OF
the Ohioans. Mr.. Cottrlll Is a very
pleasing speaker and made a good i'm
preston among those who had not pre-
vlously met him.
Rev. DR.. Peters of the Christian
church was called upon as Buck
eye, as II was discovered that he car
ries buckeye as pocketpiece and
therefore must belong to the family"
This, however. proved an error, as Mr..
Peters halls from Missouri but he
vouched for the power OF the buckeye
as panacea for all ills.
MIR. Swazey. one of the round the
world Ohioans who Is stopping In the
city for time, spoke pleasantly of his
travels. and of his recent talk with
Count Okuma, the famous Japanese
who commented on the no.
table career of the first American and
Ohioan. President Taft. Miss Bascomb
and Mrs. Little, also members of the
round the world party, were particu-
larly welcome guests. as they were
former schoolmates of the hostess. Mrs
Weldon.
The latter part of the evening was
spent In singing songs. after which re-
freshmcnts were served. The next
meeting of the club viii be held In
September, the evening proving such a
complete success that more frequent
sessions were enthusiastically en-
dorscd. President w. ID. westervelt
was reelected to the office for another
year

TOUR CITY
ON SANITATION

A preliminary survey of the work
before the people of Honolulu In the
way OF improved health conditions
was made yesterday afternoon by the
members of the Sanitary Commission
and President Mott-Smith of the
Board of Health. Two hours were
devoted to the Kakaako and Kewalo
districts.
The chain of ponds on the Kewalo
coast at Kalia and Waikiki received
the first attention, presenting many
problems that must be solved by the
engineers of the commission. These
ponds are considered to be among
the most threatening danger spots In
Honolulu and they will take a large
part In the consideration of the SAM
tary Commission.
The inspection trip yesterday show
ed the ponds In the vicinity OF the
Territorial stables to hold stagnant
water three feet below the level Of
the surrounding country. an Ideal
breeding place for cholera bacillus.
During the junket President Mott
Smith explained to the members of
the Sanitary Commission the plan Of
transporting about 80 600 cubic yards
Of earth and the raising of the levels
In the Kewalo section from two to
three feet. The method of draining
the swamps has not yet been decided
unon hut A IL believed that II will be
accomplished without much difficulty
The whole plan for the reclamation
of the area has been greatly simpli-
fed by the attitude of the Bishop and
Ward estates which have declared
their intention Of doing much of the
work at their own expense.
DR.. Currie, superintendent Of the
Federal leprosy Investigation station
who accompanied the commission OH
its trip yesterday stated as his OPP
inion that there should be no open
drains In the city. Dr. Currie de-
livered this opinion while the COM
