HAWAII SINGERS
IN NORTHWEST

That Hawaiian musicians and sing
ers are appreciated in the Northwest
is vouched for by the following, clip
ped from the Portland (Ore.) Tele-
gram of September IL: .,"@ ,sE~A f..
Regal music, such as formerly APP
pealed to the tribal kings of the Ha,
waiian natives, will be rendered by
the Hawaiian concert band at the
Oaks during the closing part of this
weeks programmes at the park. Aiou
Kilo. one of the musicians engaged by
Manager Cordray for the week, was
formerly a minstrel in the court OF
Kaiolaune, one of the most noted of
Pacific island rulers, and he will lead
the native organization in the old folk
songs which are no longer sung in the
islands. FL.
Aside from these selections, which
with their wistful and haunting mel
ody will make an especial appeal to
the audiences, the singers and instru-
mentalists will render a number OF
popular airs and classical selections,
making their concert interesting to
every taste. The full quota of 20 mu-
sicians will appear at each afternoon
and evening concert. 4
Other favorite attractions at the
Oaks will be continued, Ali Zada, the
outdoor magician, and the famous

ing the representatives of the First
independent action, and at the last
minute, namely Wednesday evening
before the convention was held. in
formed the steering committee of the
First precinct that kaimuki would
have to withdraw Berndt and failing
to do so they would refuse 10 sup
port TOwSe or Alfonso for the house.
Naturally the committee wanted to
know why No satisfactory reason
was given at the time and the COM
mittee absolutely refused, stating
they would stand by Berndt and go
down to defeat in the convention il

Liquor Interests Dominate.
Later itAwas discovered that the
brewery interests in the two Demo-
cratic precincts of Kakaako, and the
garbage bunch, declared that they
would not stand for Berndt. In fact
it is reported that Charles Bartlett,
manager of the brewery, stated that
he would not run on the same ticket
with Berndt. and emphasized his de-
mand that Berndt be thrown down"
with some exceedingly forceful lam
guage.
Thus it was that the businessmen
who first induced Mr. Berndts to run
as a candidate, against HIS wishes, la
ter were bluffed by the liquor inter-
ests into making the deal with the
very men they in the first place start
ed out to fight in the interests of
clean government, and broke their
pledges to Mr., Berndt in favor of a
raw political deal to save their face"
and power in the convention, which
was threatened by the delegates from
the two Democratic precincts, assist
ed by three Republican delegations
which were in on the deal. =.
This is the exact situation as it was
and is, according to those best in
formed and in close touch with every
move since Mr.. Berfldt consented to
run fer sSuperyisor. = -. p.

"a combine with the liquor inter-
ests forced E. A. Berndt off the
slate for supervisor and beat him in
down without even an opportunity to
be, heard"
This is the declaration of the MEM
! bers of the Republican club of the
First precinct, Fourth district.
Declaring that the Kaimuki voters
will not swallow C. G. Bartlett on the
Republican supervisorial ticket be-
cause he directly represents the
liquor interests and is the king-pin in
the liquor combination, which, they
alleged, played unfair politics before
and during the convention, the Repub-
leans of Kaimuki have come to the
front with a statement explaining
just how the combine, was worked to
beat Berndt and to shut out the First
precinct from any consideration.
The statement, which comes from
the steering committee of the pre-
cinct club, was given to the Star-Bul-
letin this morning. 1t is as follows:
Statement.
Inc VOTERS Vi hdlIuuhl were SldpPcu
in the face by the liquor interests and
their combination because the Kai-
muki Republicans stood by their can
didate, E. A. Berndt, and refused to
be bluffed into throwing him over.
The ultimatum that Berndt must go
was given to E. A. Oouthitt and T. M.
Church, the steering committee, the
day before the convention. 1t was
not until a few hours before the con-
vention actually opened that delega-
ton of two came to this steering
committee and declared that the COM
bination as then formed would not
stand for Berndt and he must go.
Not a word was openly alleged
against Berndt's record, nor could
they prove that ne was weak man.
1t was simply that Bartlett didn't
want. Berndt, and the liquor interests
were running the combination.
The Third, Fourth and Fifth pre-
cincts were told that they would
have to stand by the combination, and
they did, although Berndt was given
ten votes in the Fourth. Alfonso, can

- Months ago, when the movement for
a buSinessmens' ticket was first
preached, a number of businessmen,
the majority of whom became later
members of the steering committees
of their various precincts, appealed
) to Mr.. Berndt to stand as a candidate
for the board of supervisors, assert
ing that he would have the support of
the business interests of the country
and that he was the kind of citizen
timber which the people desired to
have in the board for a business adj
ministration of the funds of the city
and country.
At First Refused To Run.
At first Mr. Berndt refused to per-
NIT his name to be used He stated
that he was already giving his time
to the work of the harbor commission
as it's secretary and his duties as the
manager of Dimond & Company were
such that he did not we'll see how he
could give up more of his time to pub
lie service.
But the committee came to Mr..
Berndt again, when they were practi-
cally officials representing their pre-
cincts, and made a plea that for the
good of the city he permit his name
to go before the convention as a can
didate for supervisor. He finally
consented and was told to get his pre-
cinct soldly behind him and the con-
ventiOn would do the rest.
With his usual energy Mr.. BeTndt
started in to cinch his precinct, and
did so, with the help of his friends,
by vote, approximately, of two to
one. Not only this, but the Demo
cratic precinct club also endorsed him
as supervisor, subject to action by
the convention, by unanimous vote
This decidedly disproves the excuse
given by some of the convention dele.

in his precinct. There is no one

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-It was an ex-

rived here today one day late. They
were still discussing an exciting battle
over card game that occurred when
three days out of Queenstown. 1t arose
out of charges that one of the first

now residing in Paris had been invited
to take hand at poker with T. l.. Cur

STANLEY ASSA|LS
T.R.AND PERKINS
Chairman of Steel ProberS Tells
How Aid Was Given This
Trust.

WASHINGTON. Aug 15.-Theodore
Roosevelt, George w. Perkins of Har-
vester trust fame and the Federal bu-
reau of corporations were jointly as
sailed by Chairman Stanley, of the
steel investigating committee, IN
the house for aiding in the protection
of the United States Steel Corporation
and accepting any means to prevent
the power of this monopoly from being
lessened.
The government by commissions as
conducted by the bureau of corpora
tons" said Mr.. Stanley, is more than
pleasing to the interests and they are
today more enthusiastic than ever in
their advocacy of an extension of the
same. For several years the chief in
termediary between big business and
those intrusted by the government with
the duty of investigating has been a
gentleman by the name of George w
Perkins To pry into the secrets of the
bureau and to keep the interests most
concerned advised as to the progress of
the assumably secret inspection, was
the task for which Mr.. Perkins showed
his peculiar fitness"
Describing the manner in which a
$4,000 donation was given Mr.. Roose-
welt by George w. Perkins, Mr.. Stanley
said:
"Pocketed Insurance Money"
Mr.. Perkins gave his personal check
to Mr.. Bliss and was reimbursed by a
check of the New York Life Insurance
Company, payable to J. P. Morgan &
Co. The proceeds of this check were
traced to the pocketbook of Mr.. Per-
kins and for this eminent service he
was arrested under warrant charg
ing him with grand larceny. AS Chief
Justice Cullen, who tried the case
says Perkins knew that this money
was drawn from life insurance policy
without the policy holders consent
This man (PerkinsO escaped the
prison cell by the skin OF his teeth for
having picked the pocket Of shroud
for the use and benefit of the Republi-
can party"
Referring to the assimilation Of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron Company dur
ing Roosevelt's administration, the
speaker continued:
THE severest critic Of Roosevelt can
scarcely conceive that he would in
twenty minutes have commissioned the
Steel Corporation to squash its last
competitor. Had he possessed one
tenth of the information which the
commissioner of corporations after
ward admitted having, he probably
never would been guilty of this act"
