Result of Sherman's Death.

The death of the Vice Presiden,
gives sudden interest to the question
of successor, either as a candidate on
the Republican ticket, or for the. con-
sideration of the electoral college in
case no nomination is made. We un-
derstand that the Republican National
Committee will meet on Novem.
Der IL (there was not sufficient
time to do so before next Tues
day owing to the distance some
of its members will have to traveD ito
select candidate to be recommended
for the votes of the Republican cleo
tors" The National Committee is well
within its rights in doing so, and this
means that the office of Vice President
will be vacant until March next, as
indeed it was when Vice President
Hendricks died, and when Garfield
and Mckinley were assassinated and
their mates became their successors.
The plain truth is that in this republic
the office of Vice President is but of
secondary consideration. Neither diplo-
matically nor in an administrative ca
paeity is he prominent or takes part in
the councils of the President. g..
Should the Republican party have a
majority of the votes in the electoral
college, the man the National Commit
tee would select will become Vice
President on March 4, when Mr.. Taft
would enter upon his second term.
Mr.. ,Sherman's Congressional ca
reer was not very conspicuous, though
as man of less than thirty years of
age he had succeeded in making such
an impression upon his large home
community that he was chosen Mayor
Of Utica. He accomplished in youth
that which many a man would be
proud to have done in later years. In
Utica he unquestionably was a man of
note in law, business. and politics.
Everybody who knew him liked him.
Sunny Jim" was by no means a mis-
nomer or a campaign by-word. He
was good citizen, and above all loyal
to his party, no matter whittier h led
him.

4 BONUS ON HAWAH CHILDREN

In this issue Of the Star Bulletin an extreme
II interesting experiment in plantation labor
Is proposed, the Inauguration Of bonus sys.
TEN for children How it will be received by
the plantation interests generally remains to be
seen, but several plantation men have already
expressed il belief That the idea is practicable,
that il is a step in the right direction.
Director r. d. Mead of the planters bureau
Of labor and statistics, said to this paper the
other day that the problem Of keeping the la
borers on the plantations is the same problem
that every civilized country in the world is con
fronted vi the exodus OF country people to
the cities an exodus almost as inexorable as
the law Of gravitation To hold the people
''next to the soil'', farm and plantation life
must offer inducements of some kind that city
lie does not.
ii IS Just these inducements that are now
proposed Al small bonus on every child in the
fSinily Is 4 great deal to day-laborers to
whom each child means ordinarily one more
mouth to feed instead Of one more set Of hands
but to employment Large families would be
encouraged and the permanence Of the bonus
would be assured. From the plantation stand
point, il does not appear, according to the fig
..I1s presented today, that the cost to the sugar
men Of Hawaii would be excessive.

iion that Hawaii may well consider.

THE KOREAN CONSPIRACY"

That American missionaries in Korea have
been implicated in the alleged plot to assassinae
Goant Tcrauehi, the japanese governor general
is the report which has turned worldwide atten-
Etion on the trial now going forward at Seanl.
Korean Christians are numerous among the
one hundred and twenty-five prisoners accused
and now facing imprisonment and death for
conspiracy. I'm fact, there are so many converts
among the prisoners that several american
newspapers have found evidence sufficient TO
convince them that the Japanese government has
taken advantage Of the situation to direct tell
ing blow at American missionaries in the I'm,
happy country which is now ruled with such
firm hand by the Nipponese.
Out Of the exaggerated rum0rs from Seoul,
little is available upon the progress OF the trial
itself. but that little is disqnieting 1t appears
that the Japanese government viii crush the re
wolf and several leading missionaries have ap-
ncalei to their societies i'm the United States to
ask for protection.
3 The Korean conspiracy case, as it is called,
has been long in coming to head. The prose
cution had presented detailed charges of the
most serious nature According to the japanese
prosecutors, as far back as 1905 Korean secret
society, the Sinmin Hoi New. Peoples Society
was formed with the object of assassinating min
listers of the former Korean government, the Jap
anese resident general and other government
leaders. The society also intended to establish
a military training school for young Koreans, SO
that a generation trained to modern warfare
might be ready to shake off the growing doinina-
ton of Nippon.
After the annexation of Korea by Japan took
place in August, 1910, the leaders of the conspir
acy resolved to show their protest by some start
ling act that would draw the attention OF the
world to the plight of their country, and the as
sassination of Count Terauchi was determined
upon.
Three separate attempts were made, it is al
legged, to carry out this purpose while Teraucli
was travelling in Kcrea. Twice a change of
route threw the conspirators off the trail; the
third time, they surrounded the governor general
several times as he alighted at stations, but so
closely was he guarded by police that no oppor-
tunity to kill him could be found. The third at
tempt was in December, 1910. In this plot a
number of very prominent Koreans are involved,
among them Baron Yum Chiho now facing
charges with the others declared to be in Jhe
plot.

Secretary Knox proved his diplomacy here.
Asked as to what he knew of Standard Oils con-
|tiibutions to Roosevelt's campaign, he answered
that he never made statement regarding let
ter on the subject from, Roosevelt to Cortelyou,
chairman Of the campaign committee. Now the
story is that Knox was present when Roosevelt
wrote the letter. Lucky for Knox he is sailing
off to the Orient while this storm is breaking.
