Lisbon, Aug. 3.-Farmers have

Yet we can't hope for much unless
we get good rain real soon and the
outcome has to be very great If we
realize first-class crop. We see no
army worms yet, and hope that we
never will, as to that. If they were
to hft our cotton and corn at this stage
OF the game, some of us would be
bankrupt, and it might bankrupt some
body else. We mean the bankers, who
have been so kind to let us have money

a good word for those bankers in your

Some OF the politicians give the banks,

go to some of these same people and
ask for help. Now, we are going to

these politicians can go around from
stump to stump, and tell the people
how these corporations are crushing
the very life and existence out of them.

TSUIl CASE DECISION
EXPECTED BY BRECK K0NS

The news that the U. s. Circuit
court of appeals at San Francisco mad
affirmed U. s. District Judge Clemons
decision granting writ of habeas cor
pus in the well known Tsuji Gaze, as
announced in the Star-Bulletin yester-
Day, does not come as a surprise to
Z. s. District Attorney Breckons. who
appeared for the government in the
trial.
He says the courts position is pre-
cisely the same as that taken in a
former case of similar character,
though three circuit courts of appeal
in the east have given exactly opposite
rulings In such cases along the At.
lantfc seaboard. He asserts he is en-
deavoring to get the Ninth circuit
court to reverse its first decisions in
these matters, and in that hope has
recently appealed the suit of for
eign woman held here by the immi-
grafton officials for deportation be-
cause she is a victim OF trachoma.

SAYS He TESTED
STRAW VOTE 8
ITsA,FARGE

That the straw vote" being taken
by the Advertiser is "doctored' in the
Advertiser Office is the declaration to-
day of several Republicans who de.
clare that they participated in test
OF the balioting yesterday and found
that there is something mighty pecu-
liar about 1t.
The Star Bulletin was informed this
morning that after the first straw
vote was taken there wds a suspicion
that the published results and the
original vote did not tally Thereup-
on the test was arranged. 1t seems
to have amounted to trap. Yester-
day the blank ballots were scattered
among four clubs of the city. Il
In the Elks' club republican voter
found that only few votes had been
cast and that lot of blank ballots
we're still untaken. He secured for
ty-five of these ballots and voted ev-
cry one of them for the straight Re-
publican ticket. " -.
In the other words, in this club
alone, forty-fiye votes were cast for
each of the Republican candidates for
delegate, senator, mayor, treasurer,
sheriff and supervisor.
Strange to say. the published re-
suits this morning do not show that
these forty-five straight Republicans
votes were counted in the Advertiser
Office. For instance, Kalanianaole is
credited with only 43 votes all told,
seventeen of which are credited to the
Eiks' club. Dowsett is given eight
votes in the ElksS club. Kaleiopu is
given thirteen. Col. Sam Parker is
given IL. Arnold is given eight SIM
liar discrepancies are noticed in ev-
cry other Republican candidates vote.
In the list as published there is not
a candidate that received As votes
from the EIks' club, yet several Re-
publican ballots in addition to the
forty-fiye cast on the test are alleged
to have been cast at this club.
The test was made by Republican
voter who declared this morning that
the straw vote is a laughable farce.
How his forty-five straight ballots hap
paned to be overlooked he is unable
to say.

fly to look around him and pick up
some valuable pointers as-to what
California is doing in the line OF pro-

In particular, he found that the
Standard Oil Company has established
a. "road laboratory" in San Francisco
and that the results Of the great cor

of road d-building in more efficient and
scientific ways than ever been tried
here.
'Tn this laboratory said Mr.. Will
hanson this morning, scientific tests
are made Of rock and oil, so that,
given any particular kind of rock the
tests here will determine what oil
should be used and just~-how the
combination should be made in order
to get the best results.

The raise is on account of the

done in San Francisco. Formerly they
cut off the necks, skirts, hanging fat,
