railroad interests, over the protest OF
the delegate from Hawaii, will without
doubt be commented upon by the Dem
ocratic party as one evidence of the
truth of the charge. In view of the
impending battle on the issue of pro.
lection, the charge of favoring the re-
quests of the sugar interests in Hawaii
as against the protests of the rank
and file will loom up large aside from
the mere question of personality of
the governor of the Territory of Hal
waii.
eliminate the people interested in
sugar and the railways in the Terri
tory of Hawaii, and the following of
Governor Frear would be negligible.
The homesteader, the artisan, the
skilled mechanic, the day laborer, the
independent merchant, all hope to see
a change. This is true as to white
voters, as we'll as to native.

LOCAL CHINESE
FLAG ALL RIGHT

There is some justification after all
for Honolulu Chinese flying the pres
ent republican flag, because as a mat
ter of fact that is the flag that is used
by all in Southern China, at all events,
according TO Edgar Allen Forbes, the
managing editor of the Worlds Work,
New York, now in Honolulu as a tour
list by the Cleveland.
He stated this morning that this
was the only flag that he saw in China.
There is another flag that is flown
over government buildings only, so
naturally it would not appear here. 1t
is a blue field with a white twelve
pointed star, or a sunfower, in the
center. This flag was only flown on
the government offices, and appears
crossed with the ordinary republican
flag that is flown here, on small eel
luloid buttons that are worn< on the
lapel of the coat. These are the two
only flags that are known.

up his hands. This he did, and
in the doing dropped a long-bladed,
keenly-sharpened knife of Japanese
manufacture which he had been con-
cealing behind him.
Chun Duck Soon when captured
was dressed in khaki pants under blue
overalls, and wore a light-colored coat
and hat and red shirt.
On his person were found silver
Japanese belt buckle and a ring on
which were two ordinary keys and
police box key No. "a.
He was brought down to the prison
and locked up.
High Sheriff Henry on arriving IN
town tried to get into telephone com
munication with Chief McDuffie but
was unable to do so.
He then went out again with Wood
to look for Lua, whom he thought
might be in the neighborhood where
Chun Duck was first seen.
The hunt for Lua was unsuccessful,
however, and Henry and Wood re-
turned to the jail about 23O a. m.
today.
This morning at eight o'clock Billy
Wood again went up Nuuanu valley,
this time accompanied by the police
dog. He proceeded to where the
Korean was first reported seen yes
terday and turned the dog loose.
The dog picked up the scent at
once and followed 1t to a rock, where
he stopped dead.
Wood turned the rock over and
found concealed Hereunder two leath-
er purses containing in all 500 in gold
and silver.
Chun Duck Soon is confined in a
dark cell today. He is sulky and re-
fuses to say anything whatever about
his connection with John Lua.
High Sheriff Henry expresses him
self as very well pleased with the
work of Chief McDuffie in his efforts
to locate Chun Duck Soon and John
Lua.
"McDufiie is as efficient a man for
the position as could be obtained"
was the way that the high sheriff ex.
pressed himself.

wool hat into the ring, has put on the
gloves and is ready for the bout. Hay

to the pillow he will run a turrow as far
through the democratic field as possible,
turning up rocks, chunks, humble bee
nests, stingin' lizards, snakes and toads.
The colonel plows deep, too. He's a
subsoiler. Should bis pillow go down to

Mike McGIath'S Papers.

Judge Marshall, attorney for Judges
CAN'T and Timmonds and Prof. Gass,
the defeated democrats, has been try
ing since December 1910 TO prove
that the defeat Of his clients was due
TO fraud and irregularities in the St.
Louis vote. Having uttorly failed 70
find evidence Of fraud he has been
challenging the legality Of the regisua-
ton Of thousands Of foreign born voters.
Last week the name of Hon. Michael
X. McGrath, who was secretary Of state
for many years, was before Marshall,
on list of foreign born democratic
voters--a list OF registered voters all Of
whom were illegally registered, accord
ing to Marshalps theory Of technically
defective registration. Mr. McGTalh
was notified 10 appear before the su-
preme court commissioner but instead
Of travelling from Jefferson City to St.
Louis, sent down his naturalization pa
pers. Under MarShall's previous con-
tention in such cases he had to declare
that the old democratic wheel horse
was not properly naiuraized. Just
how the venerable and popular Mike
McGrath views this procedure is not a
matter Of official record but there is no
doubt that his righteous soul was vexed
and that his remarks we're luhd. II
! Mike McGrath is not to be regarded as
legal voter in St. Louis what foreign
born citizen can claim such a right?
Marshal has certainly gone the limit in
harassing foreign born citizens in behalf
Of his clients.

From a Teacher.
Chadwick, No, 3, d, II.
here and there

Chadwick, No, 8, d, IL.
Editor Republican,
l wish through the Republican TO
congratulate the members of the text
book commission Of Taney county.
Their work last week in my opinion was
perhaps the best that any county Of the
great state Of Missouri will do during
the adoption season. l being a former
teacher Of the county, think that the
re-adoption Of some Of the books for
merly used was very wise.
The adoption Of Hunts Progressive
Speller was surely grand bit Of work
the commission did for the childlen Of
Taney. l have been using the book
for seven months and consider it ex.
cellent- probably as near the old blue
back" as our older people could wish
for and expect in the present and pro-
gressive age.
Parents surely cannot object TO the
changes Of books this time, as there
have been but few changes and these
all for the better-bet;er because the
new books will lead to better results.
And again, the school boards Of
Taney county cannot afford to wait for
the allowed time to expire before they
make the changes that these men have
decided will be the best for your dear
little ones.
The Progressive speller will make
good spoilers Of your bright boys and
girls and lair Of all the remainder that
will learn at all provided, Of course,
that the little fellows have the one
other requisite, a good teacher, and
you may be sure Of that under the
wise control Of your superintendent,
John w. Bennett.

dexterous aid Of several Of the most
successful and least ccnsciencious dem

democratic nomination over Col. Dave
Ball. For forty years a democratic
nomination had been equivalent 10 an
election. But the unexpected hap
pened. The grand old commonwealth

on the democratic state ticket were de-
clared elected by small msjorilies fixed

Attorney General Major thinks he is
in the race for the democratic nomina-
ton for governor. Senator Stone is al
lowing him to run as his candidacy is
harmless and may interfere with the
prospects Of Col Dave Ball, who can

man the senator intends to nominate.
II Ball has to fight Major, an opponent

Work Of Boss Stone.

Senator Stone made up his mind"

dom hear Of the famous reform gov
ernor who was elected when every other
candidate on the democratic stale ticket
was defeated and who received more
democratic votes in the senatorial pri-
mary election in 1905 than did Stone.
Stone used Champ Clark to eliminate
Folk. Now he will eliminate Clark
at least will keep him out Of the next
senatorial race-by putting him in po-
sition to suffer a defeat from which he
cannot recover. Stone is the Big Boss
in Missouri democratic politics. II &

beiall our country, be elected president
Stone will have Missouri in the hollow
Of his hand for trading purposes. He
will unseat any man who gets above
him and make every Missouri democrat

knee to him. He has put Cowherd in
