THE NEGRO VOTE

"A tabulatiOn of the negro votes in all states
that have passed no DISTINGUISHING laws has been
prepared by Ralph w. Tyler, auditor for the
navy department. The collating and tabulating
of the negro votes has been accomplished by the
expenditure of much time and care, and is said
to be the most accurate and most complete tab.
ulation of it's kind ever prepared. In many
states Mr.. Tyler has selected number of the
principal cities and towns and indicated the me-
gro vote in those cities and towns.
A careful study of this table is said to bring
out the Important possible bearing the negro
vote may have on the election result in number
of states this fall A comparative analysis, it
is said. will show that it is possible the negro
vote may be determining factor in deciding
344 electoral votes The unusual conditions pre-
scented this year will in some states make the
negro vote a certain factor, in others probable
factor and in nearly all possible factor accord
ing to Auditor Tyler.
1t also is possible in many states, and prob
able in not few, it is co1tended, with the tables
as a basis, that because of the third party the
complexion Of the congressional delegations
from Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey,
Delaware Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia,
Indiana, Illinois and Kansas may be changed by
the votes of the negroes in those states
In 1908 President Taft received 80 per cent.
of the colored vote cast. The opposition on the
part of colored voters, it is pointed out was linn
tied toagitation against him by a few colored
men because of their antagonism to Col. Roose-

Il When the state machinery, which is Bull
Moose seized the Republican ticket and put its
electors thereon, the Bull Moose leaders declared
that this action was justified. They contended
that the Roosevelt electors, even though on the
Republican ticket would not be doing wrong in
voting against the nominee of the Republican
national convention, because, in the last analy-
sis, the electors are duty-bound to vote as the
sentiment of their state dictates
Will the Bull Moose electors abide by the SEN
timent of the people plainly spoken in this pri-
mary election? Ofcourse they won't They will
find excuses to wiggle out of it. The Bull Moose
party has fathered noble, high-sounding plat
form utterances Its first principle is that ''the
people shall rule but inspractice it is,dominated
by slippery opportunism and boundless audacity.
1t is too bad that genuine Progressiyism, for
which this country is in such need, should have
become involved with the aims and ambitions of
the present Bull Moose leaders.

i JOLT FOR THE BULL MOOSE

The Bull Moose cause in Kansas has been
given stiff jolt by the recent primary election,
even though Gov. Stubs, the Progressive, has
been nominated for United States senator over
Gle present incumbent, Curtis.
Stubs scraped through because of a teehni-
tality under which the nomination goes by ma
jority of legislative districts Throughout the
state. Curtis got an overwhelming vote, running
1000 ahead Of the Bull Moose governor, but the
majority of districts were carried by Stubs. To
how that Kansas is not the Bull Moose strong

LETTERS ON
TIMELY TOPICS
PLENTY OF LANDS FOR GRAZING.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir:-Your editorial of yesterday on
.srThe Milk Question" struck me as pc
ing good--a sincere effort to direct
public attention in channel where
civic benefit ought to be the result
While the question of marketing the
milk is very applicably discussed, you
got to the. meat of the nut when you
said: .aThe cost of feed is an enor-
nous item. Perhaps the government
may come to realize that cheap milk
supply is important enough TO war
rant the setting aside of public lands
for grazing purposes, or for the rails
ing of feed"
AS true as gospel The gist OF this
question does not lie at the door OF
the local Notwithstanding combina-
ton. 1t lies far beyond that II the
cost of feed or grazing were cheaper
the selling price of milk would un-
doubte dly be so, too.
70 The question then is: Why the high
cost of feed or grazing?
Mr.. Editor, you may turn your field
glass to almost any of the hog backs
ascending to the mountains near Ho-
noIulu and it will disclose to you land
within big-gun range of this city that
is absolutely failing to do its duty to
the citizenry--land that is capable of
producing literally both milk and
honey. Land, Mr.. Editor, that, sailing
under the disguise of being used for
school purposes, actually escapes tax
alton Land, Mr. Editor which 1t is
nothing short of sinful to be with
drawn from civilization the way it is.
And you may turn your field glass
to almost any other part Of this island
and your eyes will see the same thing.
The Bishop Estate, founded In be-
/ neYolence is actually proving the re-
verse to Hawaii Its immense hold
ings of land throughout this archipel-
ago Is an actual detriment to the de-
fVelopment of such a oitizeHry as is
desired by our parent country
{ You cannot expect cheapnnilk t0ssbe
extracted from $500 to $1000-an-acre
land in and around Honolulu. That
is an absurd business proposition on
Its face.
But il the legislature were to pass q
law taxing to the very utmost i'm
mense holdings of idle land, that this
iron-jawed bulldog might be pried
loose and the land parcelIed out to in
diyidual owners IN comparatively
small holdings, there need be little
doubt that few years would see not
only cleapening of the cost of milk
but of number of other things as
well.
Anticipating that low-browed person
who will tell you it will take thou-
sand acres of this land to support one
COW, let me say the answer is to be
found in the spineless cactus.
/. As for setting aside land for graz
ling purposes Mr. Editor, If the gov.
/ eminent has overlooked any bets In
this line. then we ought to trust tc
the opening of the famous Nuuanr
dam for the, cheapening Of the cost Of
milk.

THE ONE EAr 10 SETTLEMENT

Secretary Fishers arrival this morning
forces to climax the two1years of.open dissen
sion between Hawaiis delegate to Congress and
Hawaii's governor, and points to settlement Of
the controversy at an early date.
Apparently Secretary Fisher brings to the
settlement of the controversy the same openness
Of mind that distinguished him in his treatment
of the Alaska affair." and if his visit results in
as much. practical progress as came from his
Alaskan tour, Hawaii will be fortunate.
There is just one request that the people Of
Hawaii have to make of Mr. Fisher as he enters
this investigation, and that is request for
openness OF consideration. The secretary is per-
fectly right in letting it be known at the start
that he il here to weigh material evidence and
not to listen to idle rumor Street-talk and
back-room gossip have no place in this inyestiga-
ton. Petty complaints have no place. Govern
or Frear's administration is under attack, and
nothing less definite and important than evil
dence showing lack Of executive ability or mis-
takes in policy that iniure Hawaii deeply ought
to be serious enough for consideration as argu-
nlents against his disappointment. Delegate Ku.
HOS charges are admittedly serious. He has
enlisted and is enlisfing all the political and per
scnal aid he can muster to bolster up his attack
on the governor, He has carried his fight into
The fall campaign, and his followers have been
less discreet than himself in their violent ar
arguments Of the governor.
Tie delegate has made the charges, and it il
clearly up to him to prove them. In the last
analysis. it Is not Secretary Fisher who is set.
Ting the CONTROVERSY it's the people of Hawaii.
