WASHINGTON, March 6.-As almost
the first act of the organized national
campaign for Colonel Theodore Roose-
welt for President, his managers yes
terday issued challenge to the Taft
forces to put the presidential issue
squarely before the country that the
people may express their preference be-
tween the two big Republican candi-
dates for the nomination.
The challenge was draughted by SEN
ator Dixon of Montana, the aeknowI-
edged manager of the Roosevelt nation
al campaign, to Representative McKin-
ley, national manager for Taft. In or
der to determine whether the country
prefers Roosevelt or Taft, read the
note, Representative Mckinley was
challenged to arrange primaries in ev-
cry State in the Union and secure a
preliminary preferential vote.
Later in the day, Mckinley replied to
the Montana senator asking him if he
was acting as the chairman of the
Roosevelt committee by the authority
of the colonel himself, or whether he
was usurping it on the strength of
Roosevelt IS announced preference for
him.
Dixon has not replied.

yesterday afternoon for four hours on
the subject and the chamber of the up

(Mail Special to The Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, February 16.-As
the result of the failure of the Kauai
people to agree upon the best location
for harbor on that island it seems
likely to be some time before any ac-
tion will be taken by the federal gov
ernment or even recommended by the
board of army engineers. This is the
stand the engineers take in submitting
their views to the secretary of war by
letter, after hearing George H. Fair
child and E. NJ. Watson in behalf of
Nawiliwili and w. A. Kinney in favor
of Eleele, sometimes known as Port
Allen.
The recommendations of the engineer
in charge in Hawaii favored NawiIiwili
but that both sides might have an even
break, special hearing was given ten
days ago, in which Mr. Kinney, who
came here for the purpose from Boston.
told of the private funds which had
been expended at Eleele and urged that
the board of engineers recommend a
congressional appropriation for that
place. Fairchild and Watson claimed
that the good of greater number of
people, and especially that of the home
steaders, whom the government was in
terested in, would be best served
through Nawiliwili.
Let 1t Wait
The board, after considering the
statements of both parties, submitted
its findings to the secretary of war,
these being to the effect that it would
be best to let the matter wait until
both parties to the controversy could
agree upon one or the other location
and also till the railroad facilities of
the Island of Kauai could be SO i'm
proved that single harbor would be
convenient and satisfactory to all per-
sons concerned, evidently taking the
view that one harbor is all that is need
ed and can be expected on Kauai.
As matter of fact, even if the
board had recommended Nawiliwili it
is certain that there would have been
no appropriation at the present session.
Under the present Democratic rule it
has been decided that no new river and
harbor projects will be commenced and
that in all cases possible only enough
money will be given to allow work to
keep on where loss to the government
ould follow if it should be suddenly
stopped. In this way and through cur
tailment of the army and navy appro-
priations, it is expected that the ap-
propriations will be from fifty to sew
enty-five million less than under recent
Republican sessions, a fact which will
be used as campaign argument for
continued Democratic rule.
The Lesson in It.
The lesson to Hawaii, however. is
one which is purposely given, that
where a community is divided against
its general benefit, it can expect but
little in the line of results. If the
fight for Eleele had not been made the
chances are very good that the Nawili.
will project would have been approved
which would have given it good
standing for the next sessions rivers
and harbors bill, while under present
conditions that matter is practically
''laid on the table,

(From Wednesday Is Advertiser )

NfTOm wednesday & AQVert1Ser.)
Copies of the report of the Hardwick
special committee of congress, appoint.
ed last May to investigate the Amer
lean Sugar Company and others, were
received here yesterday. The commit
tee also reported on the formation Of
the sugar trust, so-called, and the ex.
tent to which the operations of the
trust have caused an increase in the
cost of refined sugar. The report was
presented to the house February 16, and
brief cable was sent here giving its
main findings, which were that the
sugar trust was an unlawful combina-
ton, and that it practically controlled
both the production and prices of sugar
in the American market.
The full report gives numerous de-
tails regarding the formation of the
combine, and some severe comments
upon it. The principal reference tc
Hawaii is in connection with discussion
of how far the American Sugar Com.
pany controls producers. Practically
all the sugar produced Gin the United
States" says the report, is in Louisi.

10000 Stockholders.

"That by this process few large
stockholders, probably less than fifty
in all, have been replaced by $4,000
people, of whom not over a dozen have
any practical knowledge of the bust
ness of producing refined sugar. About
10000 of these $4,000 stockholders are
women. The whole body of stockhold-
ers are scattered throughout 43 States
and 16 foreign countries, and the aver
age holding of stock of each amounts
to $4,000 par value.
That the great majority of these
stockholders acquired their shares at a
price of from $120 to $3.50 for each
share of 500 par, that this share had
cost the original promoters not over $50,
and that the assets resulting from TWEEN
ty years of prosperous business are so
large as to justify the conclusion that
there is property enough behind each
share of the stock at the present time
to equal the price paid for it by the
present holders.
''That since the death of Henry o.
Havemeyer, about four years ago, and
the accession of the present stoekhold-
ers to control, the affairs of this com

Kuhio's Gall.

huuLO Wall
Neither of the afternoon papers
dared discuss editorially the issue
raised, although it was being generally
discussed on the street.
Correspondence from Washington in
the Bulletin told of the effect of the
cablegram sent by Kuhio to the man
ager of the Taft campaign committee,
the Delegate having had the gall to
assure the Taft workers that the dele
CATION from Hawaii would be friendly
and could be counted upon. The ver-
dancy of the original Taft hackers in
having allowed Kuhio to coolly appro.
pirate in advance the credit for a Taft
delegation, after he had come here to
secure an uninstructed delegation and
learned of the impossibility, is being
laughed at in some Republican circles
and is arousing bitterness in others. The
idea that Kuhio could outplay the op-
position in SO raw fashion and reap
the benefit of the work done expressly
for the Governor has almost decided
some to cut both the Taft League and
the Kuhio bunch out and launch q
straightout Frear League.
Some disgust is also being expressed
attitude, willingness to barter with
Kuhio for the Hawaiian delegation 4
votes.
Frear, the Sacrifice.
The opinion of the man in the street
is that all the politicians are ready, il
need be, to sacrifice Frear if the pinch
comes. Another pretty generally be
lieved thing is that Kuhio is determine ed
now, after he has outbluffed the op'
position, to run the anteconvention
campaign along the lines he had orig.
inally mapped out, which is to crowd
the territorial convention with his
friends, elect an uninstructed delega
tion, have a Frear endorsement resolu
tion presented in order that it may be
killed, and, in the end, claim that the
party has backed him up in his anti
Frear charges.
The Delegate announced yesterday
that he would issue statement today
in which, presumably, he will explain
why he is not at his post of duty ant
why he will not agree to any of the
proposals of the Taft League. The an
nouncement will be made this after
noon.
