BAD MEAT SOLD
BY LUM YET

81 consider the sale of diseased meat
to be more serious that the sale Of
diseased fruit and certainly a menace
to health" said Judge VIM. B. Lymer,
this morning, in imposing fine of
$50 and costs on Lum Yet, who was
found guilty of offering for sale dis
eased ham. The evidence was that
the ham was badly diseased and that
Lum Yet had it on his stall in the
meat market for sale. Some time ago
a similar charge was laid against this
same stallowner but he then forfeited
bail

LEGISLATIVE WORK TO-DAY
THE HOUSE.

Meeting at 8 o'clock, or two hours
before the usual time, and sitting forty
minutes, the House this morning
passed four bills on third reading and
then adjourned for the day.
One of the bills provides for desig-
mating the party or the bipartisan
standing, as the case may be, of each
candidate for election upon the bal
lot.
Another abolishes the court terms
at Lahaina on Maui and Honokaa on
Hawaii, which have long been both
unnecessary and inconvenient as well
as expensive.
A bill passed to have three super
visors each elected from the first and
second representative districts, and
one at large for the county of Hawaii
does not have the provision of the
Senate bill containing those objects
which would make the supervisor at
large both chairman of the board and
road supervisor with a large salary.
When it came to adjourning for the
visit to the forts, Towse told the mem
bers they would pass through Kai-
muki, and he wished them, with refer
ence to his bill for a 100000 school,
house in that section, to take notice
what big place Kaimuki was.
Chairman Keliinoi of the military
committee, cautioned the members
that they would see things in the
fortifications which they must no
talk about outside.

some from this keg.
Fennell explained that thrice pre-
viously he had caught the defendant
selling liquor, but he had taken pity
on him on account of his age and had
warned him only. When he made
search of the premises after yester-
days sale he found a five gallon keg,
two or three empty demijohns, which
still contained traces of wine, and un-
der the table was box in which were
three more bottles of wine.
Judge Lymer, on Akuna declaring
that he was SO years of age thought
the case was one in which a suspen-
sion of sentence would meet the ends
of justice, and he adopted that course,
at the same time warning Akuna that
if he sold any more liquor he would
be fined $500, which would mean that
he would have to spend five or six
months in Jail if he could not pay.
Kaleshnoca, a Russian woman, liv-
ing in one of the novels at the Gold
Mine, was also captured last night,
but Fennell refrained from arresting
| her there and then as she had six
children, ranging from two years to
, eleven, who needed her attention. He
told her to be present in court this
morning, but she did not appear and
! later in the morning she was arrest
ed. She admitted her guilt to the ar
resting officer, adding that, as her'hus-
band was away she had to do some
thing to get money to feed her little
ones. She will be charged on Mon
day

Continuing the crusade against the
sale of liquor by unlicensed vendors,
Licensing Inspector Fennell made two
more arrests yesterday but only one
of the defendants Gppen ed IN court
this morning, the other remaining
away because, as she said when ar
rested later on, she did not know the
situation of the police court.
John Akuna, man of over eigh'

woman named Louisa being used as
an unwilling informer by the police
Fennell in company with other Off
GERS, took a trip to Iwilei last night
and saw numberless half drunken
people there, Hawaiians and Russians
Undoubtedly a brisk trade in liquor
was proceeding but it was difficult to
locate the vendor
In one house occupied by Hawaii
this feast Fennell sent a Hawaiian
informer. This man gave Louisa, one
of the women inside, dollar and ask
ed for a bottle of wine, and Louisa
promptly took the coin and set on
for the wine, visiting the house oi

once more trouble was encountered
in the form of cholera in Madeira.
Campbell at once turned his attention
to other sources of available labor,

proportion as to nationality is not
stated in the cable received, nor does
the dispatch state what division there
may be as to men, women and chill

The board was fortunate in arrang-

THE Sentinel suggests that in the in
terests of fairness, Col. Roosevelt in
his splendid endorsement of the pro-
gressive movement in Wisconsin ought
to have included other pioneers and
leaders as we'll as Senator La Toilette,
and remarks: SIT is certainly little
hard, for instance, to ignore entirely
Uncle Isaac Stephenson who spent so
much good money for the cause and
frankly admits in penitential moments
that he made La Toilette. If it had
not been for the benefcence of Uncle
Isaac the cause might have petered
out at an early and tender age, and we
have always held that he was the only
man in the movement who made any
substantial sacrifices for it. He paid
the freight on the movement while Bob
was only riding on it and working it for
all it was worth. The colonel should
have given Uncle Isaac honorable men
ton at least -

More Salaried Commissions.

An opening for another raid on the
state treasury is provided for in the
bill fathered by Assemblyman Gettle
that has begun to attract some atten-
ton throughout the state. The Mil
waukee Sentinel sticks the knife into
the proposition as follows:
The Gettle bill (980A) contains GER
tain provisions calculated to cause mis-
giving from the viewpoint of public in
terest
This bill creates a new commission
with supervisory powers relative to
public expenditures and other public
matters.
Rather vague and elastic function,
one would think. Are we not becoming
little over-commissioned, so to speak,
in Notwithstanding little further
in the direction of bureaucracy than
our practical needs call for and that
economy of administration warrants?
But let us turn to the points we want
now to note especially.
First as to personnel: The ex-officio
members of the commission are the
governor, the president of the state
university 1--WE expected that) and three
other state officials. Besides those there
are to be three members appointed by
the governor, who may also fill vacan-
cies by appointment and at any time
remove his appointees. So much for
the board itself.
Looking further, we find that the
board may appoint and employ at a
fixed compensation a corps of ''such
experts and other employees as may be
found necessary.
So here is the prospect of new and
possibly numerous body of placeholders
drafted into the public service. AS
Stunning the need of such body, that
fact would not itself invite misgivings
But in the midst of the bill the Curl
Gus proviso pops up that the employees
of the board shall be exempt from the
provisions of the state civil service
laws!
To the keen scent that exemption
might make the whole scheme smell of
political purpose, or, bluntly speaking,
| of work in the direction of machine
construction. How does it look to the
state commission and defenders of civil
service principles generally?

OKLAHOMA seems to have already
tired of it's bank deposit guarantee sys-
TEN. Soon after it was started the
state guarantee fund contributed by
the banks in the system was depleted
by the failure of big bank. Then
there had to be further assessment
of the banks to restore the fund. Other
bad bank failures have followed, MAX
ing necessary other assessments. There
is now rush of state banks to get
away from the system, and they are
recognizing as national banks. This
reverses the rush two years ago in
national banks reorganized to become
state banks under the deposit guarantee
law.

THE tariff thinkers at Washington
should take notice of the following dis
patch from London under date of April
II: "Copies of a report on the cost of
living in American cities, based on in
quiries made in-twenty- eight represent
ative towns by officials of the British
board of trade, were circulated in par
lament this evening. The report of
533 pages covers the questions of work.
ing class housing, retail prices of COM
modities, and rates of wages in the
United States, compiled for purposes
OF comparison with the conditions of
workers in Great Britain and other
countries. The conclusions reached are:
The cost of food and rent combined is
50 per cent greater in the United
States than in England and Wales, but
these heavier relative charges on the
working class income have been accom-
plished with weekly wages which are
as 230 to 100.' The report adds that
this ratio of money earnings is more
than two and one-fourth times as great
as in England and Wales, and makes
possible command of necessarieS, con-
veniences and minor luxurieS of life
that is both nominally and really great
er than that enjoyed by the correspond
ing class in this country, although the
effective margin in practice is curtailed
by scale of expenditure, to some ex-
tent necessary and to some extent vol
untary, adopted in accordance with the
different and higher standard of ma
terial comfort. All that is necessary
to put the American laborer upon the
basis OF his European brother is to re-
move the tariff wall Are the people
of this country ready for such condi-
tons? Will the democratic congress
dare to put their free trade theories in
practice?

THE Free Press thinks Roosevelt's
endorsement of Wisconsin progressive
ness is just little belated. There was
a time years ago when a word of this
kind meant something, but now it is
easy to speed the car of progress when
it becomes band wagon. Then it sug-
gests that the ex-president carry his
bouquet back to New York with him
for larger appreciation of his eleventh
hour praise of the wisconsin idea"
