THE CAMPAIGN and BUSINESS

That "Big Business" on the mainland is not
at all disturbed by the campaign and approach
ing election is the unusual condition noted by
the STAR-BuILEnN's Washington correspondent,
Who says that two reasons for this are given
first Big Business sees nothing unfriendly in the
Multitude of either Roosevelt or Wilson, and there
fore does not fear possible change; and second
", this is a year of big crops, and campaign
NERVOUSNESS is thereby overcome
1t is probable also that there is another rea-
son, namely, that Big Business is getting used
to political wallops and has ceased to regard
them with as much seriousness as few years
back
Prior to the time when Roosevelt opened fire
on trusts and monopolies in a presidential mes
sage that stirred the country from one end to the
other, Big Business had enjoyed an era of peace.
Comparatively little attention had been paid to
trust operations by the national administration.
Roosevelt's audacious attacks were at once
hailed as vicious assaults and for years the cry
went up that the president was hurting the bus
mess interests of the country. Every campaign
was regarded as a crisis.
Now the result of all this has been largely
negative. Even such trusts as have been dis
solved under the Sherman act have not been a

THE FAIRNESS OF THE HEARINGS

The STAR-BULIETIN is glad to hear from the
Rev. Stephen L. Desha that he made no such
statements on the Fisher investigation ascredit-
ed to him yesterday morning. No one however
prejudiced, could have made such statements if
he had followed the Investigations at all closely.
Secretary Fisher has evidently not been
swayed by the presence of ladies of the govern
or's family in the senate chamber, for the secre-
tary has repeatedly questioned witnesses upon
the specific point to whether or not an execu-
tive here would be influenced by such family
Connections and social ties. .".
AS to the statement that Fisher distorted
truth in telling George r. Carter lie was UNI
aware Of any lack of support for Frear by the
national administration, it is quite easily dis
proven by glance at the stenographic report of
what actually was said. Fisher was careful to
make very plain that he would discuss only what
has happened during his own ineumbency of of
flee, and he explicitly stated that he would as
snme what Gov. Carter said of the past to be
true, although because of lack of personal knowl-
edge he could not discuss it.
Those who have been following the hearings
closely have been gratified at the very temperate
manner in which they have been carried on; at
the spirit of fairness shown on both sides; the
lack of personal rancor or petty spite; and the
STAR BULLETIN hopes this spirit will continue
The delegates attorney has made no charges of
nnfairness in the hearing, nor has Kuhio. The
hest procedure for either party to the, contro-
reIsy is to keep a cool head and. stick to facts
and reason.

CONKLING BACK
ON THE COAST

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 9.-Having
negotiated the sale of $1,250,000 of
bonds for public improvements in Ha-
waii, D. L. Conkling treasurer of the
territorial government returned yes
terday from the east and took apart
ments at the Stewart. The bonds are
% years fours and were sold above
par. - 81
'The ease with which tie bonds
were sold,'' Conkling said yesterday,
shows the satisfaction of the bankers
as to the credit and business condi-
tions of the islands even on the eve
OF presidential election. Hawaii is
making preparations to meet the in
creased trade with the world when 1t,
is brought nearer European ports
through the Panama canal. The money
raised by these bonds will go for pub
lie Improvements. = 4 z
II Conkling said that the antipathy Of
Prince Kalanianao!e to Governor
Frear and his administration was
merely personal, and that with q man
of the caliber of Walter L. Fisher, sec
rotary of the interior, investigating
the charges, the governor had nothing
to fear, as the accusations made
against him were groundless.
Conkling says that women's suffrage
will be an issue in November in the
islands and that strong campaign
is being made my the suffragists for
recognition. He believes President
Taft has retained his hold on the is
land vote and will be the choice OF the
electors in November. r.

Tracks to Race Their Stables

MONTREAL, Canada, September 49,
Horsemen who have been following the
Canadian racing circuit, especially those
| who will not attend the closing session at
Toronto. were busily engaged yesterday
! making preparations to depart from the
Blue Bonnets course, where the autumn
sport closed with the running of Satur-
days card. Most of those that have ue-
termined to eliminate Woodbine will go to
Maryland for the meetings at Havre de
, Grace and Laurel, while, others will go
to Kentucky to finish out the season in
the Blue Grass state.
The stakes and purses offered by the
Maryland State Fair Association Of Lau-
rel have proven big incentive for the
turfmen. and a big band will be off for
that track before the end of the week. as
it is the intention of the heads of several
big thoroughbred esta ablishments to pass
both Toronto and the remaining days at
Havre de Grace and rest up for the in
auguration of the sport over the Laurel
track
The first stable to leave here for Lau-
rel was that of August Belmont, the New
York millionaire, whose equine toys will
be raced over the course for the first
time by Louis Fuestel. who has been in
control of the American string of the
chairman OF the Jockey Club during the
entire season. The Belmont racers We're
put on the cars late yesterday afternoon
and will reach Laurel some time tomor-
row.
Tommy McTaggert, under contract to
Mr.. Belmont, also left, but will not be
with the stable, as he will ride as a free
lance at Havre de Grace until the close of
the meeting over the new course, when
he will join Fuestel at Laurel. McTas-
gert was enthusiastic over going back to
the states to ride With him was Jimmy

Among those in the Belmont stable
which were shipped to Laurel We're Pris-
Gillian, Waterwise, Mission and the two

Watervale are the stars of the stable and
will be raced in the stakes both at six
furlongs and over a distance of ground.
The two-year-olds. mostly all the get of
