No Christmas Pardons.

Atlanta, Dec 13.-There viii be no
Christmas pardons in Georgia this
year-that rs practically none, granted
merely out Of sympathy and because
it is the holiday season. Governor
John NJ. Slaton is as human and as
tender hearted as any other official,
but the fact that he is in office for
only sixty days, and at that only as
acting governor, has led him to be-
lieye that he should be extremely con-
servative in the exercise of the par
don power.

WILL BLOCK
IMMIGRATION

Raymond G. Brown, inspector in
charge of the U. S. Immigrant Sta
ton, Hawaii, has given out some fig
ures with reference to the percentage
.of illiteracy among the different
classes of immigrants who have
been arriving in Hawaii during re-
cent years. These figures indicate
that if the Dillingham; naturalization
bill passes Congress, as seems most
probable at present, this Territory
will be seriously handicapped in the
matter of recruiting Portuguese and
Spanish laborers, as none not able
to read and write will be admitted.
The Russians, however, will fare bet
ter, and the law will probably not af-
feet the immigration of Filipinos.
Since the opening of the local U.
S. immigration Station here, Mr..
Brown states that of the $500 Por-
tuguese admitted, about sixty per
cent. were illiterate, while about sew
enty per cent. of the 9,1O0 Spanish
immigrants could neither read nor
write. Only about twenty-seven per
cent of the 1900 Russians were illit
crate.
However, these figures are likely
to be misleading, as was pointed out
by DR.. V. S. Clark, of the Territorial
Department of Labor, Statistics and
immigration, in an interview in the
Star on Monday. The Dillingham; bill
will apply only to adults Cor persons
fourteen years of age or older) and
Dr. Clark thinks that illiterate wives
of literate males will not be debarred.
A large proportion of the immigrants
thus far admitted have been children.

ARE THESE THE WORDS OF CHRIST?

priest, met them and said to the
Savior, who gave Thee leave to walk
in this place of publication and 10
see these holy vessels when Thou
hast not washed nor yet have they
disciples bathed their feet? But de-
filed Thou hast walked in this temple,
which is a pure place, wherein no
other man walks except he has
washed himself and changed his gar
ments, neither does he venture to see
these holy vessels.
"And the Savior straightway stood
still with His disciples and answered
him, Art thou then, being here in
this temple, clean?'
Washing and Cleansing.
"He said unto Him, am clean; for
l washed in the Pool of David, and
having descended by one staircase,
assembled by another, and l put on
White and clean garments. and then
I came and looked upon these holy
vessels.
The Savior answered and said
unto him, Woe we blind, who see not.
Thou hast washed in these running
waters wherein dogs and swine have
been cast day and night, and hast
cleansed and wiped the outside skin
which also the harlot and flute girls
annoint and wash and wipe and beau
tify for the lust of men; but within
wickedness. But and my disciples,
who thou sayest have not bathed,
have been dipped in the waters OF
eternal life. But woe unto thee!"
Here ends the translation.

Had Narrow Escape.

Captain Edward Aiken Shuttle,
worth, Second Infantry, stationed with
his regiment at the Leiluhua reser.
walton, narrowly escaped what might
have been a serious accident on Tues,
day afternoon last.
Captain Shuttleworth was taking a
horseback ride, when his saddle turn,
ed and frightened the horse beyond
control. The popular Captain receiv.
ed kick in the chest from the TEN.
porarily wild animal. Fortunately,
however, no serious results will hap
pen, to the rider The horse jumped
an embankment almost forty feet, and
has a badly dislocated shoulder. Both
Captain Shuttleworth and his fine rid.
ing horse are doing well and in a few
days will be ready for another ride,
with a new saddle girt.
Unwritten regulations are being
talked over as to whether the time
honored custom of a cavalry officer
when he is dismounted will and
should hold good in the case of an
Infantry officer under the same cir.
.cumstances.
The line of the Second Infantry
does not like to urge the old army
legend, but it will likely occur to
Captain Shuttleworth in good time to
celebrate his narrow escape.

BOSTON, July 3O.-A new uncan-
onized gospel of Christ, containing
many utterances of Jesus, which are
today unknown to the world, is be-
lieved to have been discovered
through the work of the Egyptian ex-
ploration fund, according to an Off
cial announcement issued from the
Boston headquarters of tn fund.
Enough ancient writings have been
dug up to furnish material for
twenty large printed volumes.
Professor Bernard p Grenfell and
Professor Arthur S. Hunt are trans
lating the mass of recovered papy-
ros. Professor Whittemore went to
Egypt several months ago on the
strength of subscriptions made by
wealthy Bostonians and others. He
succeeded in completing the work of
opening and recovering the long hid
den treasures from one of the mounds
through special permission of the
Khedive.
Conversations With Priests.
The bulk of the fragment is con-
.cerned with conversation between
Jesus and chief priest in the temple
at Jerusalem.
The translation is in part as fol-
lows:

the same things as they; for the
.evildoers among men receive their
reward not among the living only,
but also await punishment and much
torment.

lowing statement:
81 am informed that Supervisor
Murray has stated that there was no
data of the cost of Merchant street
This is a strange statement to make
as during my incumbency of the Office
of road supervisor I furnished de-
tailed reports of all the work done in
my district to the mayor and super.
visors, with copies for the members
of the road committee. The origin.
ais of such reports should be on file
in the city and county clerks office,
and duplicates in the Office of the

annual reports of the mayor, which
have been printed. Anyone can get
hold of them. They are only sum
maries of my daily record.

Especial Correspondence of The Starr
WASHINGTON, July 27-President
Taft's message transmitting to Con
gress the complete Official record in
what is known as the Controller Bay
case fully and adequately answered
every charge that has been brought
against the administration, and clear.
ed up all prevailing uncertainty ex.
cept as regards one thing, the dick.
to-Dick" letter. That no such letter
ever appeared in the official files of the
Interior Department the President es'
tablished beyond all reasonable ques-
ton. But he did not fix, nor did he
undertake to fix the responsibility for
that alleged paper on the shoulders of
the person or persons who faxed it.
The authorship of the "Dick-to-Dick"
letter, therefore, is the only unsolved
mystery in connection with this fiasco.
In view of what the President said
in his message, and in view of what
has been said by all other persons
who would have seen and known of
10e "Dick-to-Dick" letter, had it ever
been appended to Ryans letter to Bal
linger, there is no longer any room to
doubt that the document made famous
by Miss Abbott was a myth, or else a
pure forgery. Either Miss Abbott new
er saw anything purporting to be the
''Dick-to-Dick" letter, or else she saw
a letter that was not written by Ryan,
not received by the Interior Depart
ment, not considered by Secretary
Ballinger or anyone else in official life,
but purely a forgery perpetrated by
parties interested in injuring Presi-
dent Taft. The chances are that Miss
Abbott saw what purported to be the
"Dick-to-Dick" letter, but she did not
see it when she was going through the
files of the Controller Bay case at
the Interior Department.
Investigation Not Pressed.
In view of the fact that Chairman
Graham of the Committee that under
took to Investigate" the Controller
Bay affair, is not anxious to establish
the facts with regard to this letter;
does not desire to place Miss Abbott
on the witness stand, and has no in
clination whatever to bring out the
facts with reference to this mysterious
document, this crime may never be
feA.. .5ned upon the shoulders of the
guilty party or parties, unless some
other means can be devised for prob
ing into the highly important facts in
regard to this forgery.
In view of the refusal of Chairman
Graham to proceed with his investi
cation, Notwithstanding he has been
branded as a coward from one end OF
the country 10 the other, it is hardly
probable that any other congressional
investigation will be authorized, al
this time at least, to inquire into this
circumstance, and if the inquiry is put
off too long, the matter may be drop
ped But while the "Dick-to-Dick" let
ter is fresh in the public mind, atten
ton should be called to a number Of
highly important facts in connection
with that paper
Origin of the Letter.
To begin with, Miss Abbott was not
the first muck-raker to print the ''Dick
to-Dick" letter. That interesting, but
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-08-09

forged document first made it's appear
ance in the Portland Journal on Sun
day, July 2, appearing as a part of a
special dispatch from Washington,
dated July 1, Miss Abbotts article
containing the letter was printed in
the Philadelphia North American Fri
day, July Z. Copies of the Portland
Journal of the End reached Washing
ton at noon on Thursday, July 6, and
reached other eastern cities, Phila-
delphia, New York and Baltimore at
approximately the same time.
Miss Abbott, according to a pre-,
pared intrview which she gave the
Washington Times, following the pub
LEGATION of her story in Philadelphia,
claimed to have been the discoverer
of the "Dick-to-Dick" letter; she said
she regarded it as most sensational;
she said she found it while going
through the records of the Controller
Bay case at the Interior Department,
after Ashmum Brown, Secretary Fish
ers private secretary, had reluctantly
handed her the record. She remem-
bered seeing this letter because Mr..
Brown, in explaining the case to her,
prior to handing her the papers skip
ped over two pages at a time" and
aroused her suspicion, and it was only
when she went through the papers,
one at time that she found this in
teresting and most important docu-
ment (she herself having declared it
most importantly.
CircumstantiaI Evidence.
Bear in mind that Miss Abbott did
not see the Controller Bay papers
prior to this time; nor did she have
access to them again, unless it was in
the presence of Secretary Fisher. But
when she had the papers in her pos
session she said she made copious
notes, and from those notes wrote her
article for Golfers, that magazine
having sent her to Washington on that
particular mission. Also bear in mind
the fact that when this article, written
from the aforesaid notes, was sub
mitted to Golfers it did not contain
the "Dick-to-Dick" letter, nor any ref
erence to it. Yet Miss Abbott herself
says she regarded the letter as import
ant and sensational. Therefore, if she
omitted this important feature from
her story for Golfers, she committed
a grave and serious omission in not
incorporating the letter in her article
And being a muckraker by training, is
it natural to presume she would have
left out the most sensational feature
1t is not; muckrakers do not operate
that way. They never omit Hamlet
Yet Miss Abbott's magazine story
written after the perusal of the record
and after her alleged discovery of the
"Dick-to-Dick" letter, did not contain
this letter. Her magazine article was
rejected and later she rewrote it, in,
serted the "Dick-to-Dick letter, and
sold it to the Philadelphia North Am
erican.
Miss Abbott collaborated with and
conferred with the Washington muck
rakers after her article appeared in
the Philadelphia paper; did she col
laborate or confer with them before

SURPLUS IS

The Governor remarked that during
the first five years of the Territorial
government deficits were the rule,
ranging from $4,000 to nearly $780,
