GOOD OLD SUMMER TIME.

AS vacation days draw nigh it is
meet that a place be selected at which
G. month or so may be spent with
profit. There is much about Haleiwa
to recommend it.. From the point Of
view as a sanitarium there is no bet
ter place on the Islands. It has other
advantages also, not the least of
which is its proximity to the city. AS

1t was held in ancient rules, that
only officers of the service, who pos
sessed wealthy mothers-in-law could

pay, it is not now considered such a

drive their automobiles.
In fact a number Of army, marine
and navy officers of this military dis
trict are owners of handsome automo-
biles. The last officer to join the auto
machine brigade here, is Captain Har-

TARIFF CATfCHISM
lcOSTiNUED FROM LAST wEEK)


wool help in the matter of tariff
EeEOJmH
ADswer-Ef wool were placed on
tbe hist free of duty, then the pro-
1neeIS of wool would demand that
Abe dHty on manufactured wooden
goods ne reduced to a revenue basis,
and eventually, the finished wooden
goods would also go on the free
lrst-
Q.--I see. You would divorce
the interests of the wooden manufac,
tureTs and the wool growers.
A.-Exactly. When protection
isss fall out, honest people settle
ibsiJ 3Ues.
Q.-Can you illustrate this more
fnlly2
A.-Yes. As soon as the Cana.
dian reciprocity bill becomes law,
tbe farmers who have had the duty
removed from their hogs, cattle,
CORD, wheat, oats, and so forth, are
going to help take the tariff off the
manufactured articles.
Q.-Wlll you explain this more
IN detail?
A.-Yes. When the tariff is
taken of of wheat, then, the wheat
grower will be ready to help the
demOeratic party take the tariff
off Ui -four. When the tariff is
removed from the farmers hogs and
cattle he will be ready to help re-
move the tariff from pork and beef.
When the tariff Is taken off of
wool, then the wool grower will be
ready and anxious to take the tariff
off Of wooden cloth and wooden
blankets and wooden fabrics.
Q.-Well, now | see that a tax on
wool helps the wool grower and al
50 helps the woOlen manufacturer,
but, whom do these hurt?
Avery man, woman n d
chiIa IN the United States who buys
woRleD clothing, wooden blankets,
ard vOolen fabrics for protection
from the winters cold.
Q.-How much did the wool
gTOwers and the wooden manufac-
turrTs get of the peoples money last
year, owing to the high tariff on
wool and woolens?
A.-About four hundred million
dollars.
Q-How much did the waNlen
-msssfattar.r, get saf4b;s amountF
A.-They got about three hun
drea and seventy million dollars,
and ibe wool growers got the bal
anpe.
O. Do you believe that all raw
materials of manufacturers should
be placed on the free list?
A.-Yes.
Q.-Wny2
Because the people would
get ibe finished product cheaper.
Q-Is it true, as l have heard
some people state, that the consum'
srs Wosld not get the finished article
and ebeaperif the raw material were
piaced on the free list?
A.-Well, / believe l can prove
by sDcb republicans as Serene E.
PsyDe, Thomas b. Reed, and John
Dalnll, that the consumers would
gEi ibe finished products cheaper if
Isw materials were placed on the
free Inst.
Q.-Well, won Id like to have
PrOOt.
A.-When the Wilson bill, a
4esnOgratic tariff bill, was under
consideration in congress, Serene E.
Payne, John Dalzell, julius G.
Burrows, Thomas B. Reed, Albert
j. hopkins and John H. Gear sign
cd minority report on the bill, In
tbis report they used this language:
isIF be (the manufacturer) can make
his goods any cheaper because of
free wool, be must sell them just
AS mach cheaper"
@ Well, well, these big re-
pnbIigans admitted that free wool
was right from the consumers
standpoint, didn't they?

China seems near. 1t is said prep

cope with the situation and cannot
depend on the loyalty of those it has.
Most Of the strong leaders and best
commanders are more or less in
sympathy with the i-nsurrection. Wa
Ting Fang, former American minister,
is out for a republic, which seems to
be the aim of the revolutionists. The
rebel demands include the retirement
