value by the vice president of the
company.
The company has outstanding a
bond issue of over $5,000,0O0, and
capitalization, totaling $9,500,OO0. The
report also says that the net earn
ings are more than twice the annual
interest charges on all bonds now
outstanding.
In other words the trust has no
real money invested in its business
at all if its showing is properly in
terpreted. 1t is all borrowed coin. 1t
is a fine system from their stand
point 1t is beautiful work because
they get big profits for nothing. The
vice president has right to brag
about the status of affairs.
But it is most too good thing.
Men should not be allowed to get
something for nothing. At least not
too much. 1t tends to breed indo-
lence and arrogance. 1t is also the
cause of anarchy and discomfort
People do not like to see a few men
rake in millions without effort on
their part when there are others who
must struggle hard all the time for
a bare livlihood.
Perhaps the Pendleton city admin
istration can do something to relieve
the situation. When the new street
Lighting contract is made maybe
more favorable terms can be had.
Perhaps clause can be inserted in
the contract to the effect the city
wont have to pay for lights unless
they burn. Perhaps we can get a
few more lights so as to brighten up
the dark spots where the Jack the
Grabbers" hold forth. Maybe Pen
dleton can get rid of its sixteenth
century street lighting service in the
cluster lights installed at regular in
tervals as they should be- Maybe
the electric trust can be induced to
use some of its profit money remov-
ing the unsightly poles and danger
Gus overhead wires that menace the
lives of firemen and others whenever
there is a blaze in the business dist
rict.
In making these humble sugges-
tions the East Oregonian realize.
fully its own wickedness. We realize
we are "assailing business and driv,
ing capital from our fair city" w,
are undertaking and bounding genia
gentlemen who draw good salaries
and try to earn them. We are yer!
unworthy from the standpoint of til,
electric trust. Nevertheless. the sug
gestions are put forth and our hon
orable city fathers may max
such use of them as they desire.

ART NOTE. o
, . . . - >>>>>>>

1t is estimated that ]. Pierpont
Morgan's art collection is worth s2O,-
100000. What a wonderful thing it
is, somebody says. to be able to invest
2O,000,000 in art! But is Mr.. Nor
gan's collection of any real benefit
to the world? Has his Investment
helped in any way to develop art?
His collection consists almost exclu-
sively of things that were produced
by men who have long been dead
and much of it is safely stored be-
hind doors that are closed against
the public. The man or woman who
makes collection of ton of coal
which is placed at the disposal of
people who are suffering does a much
greater thing than one who invests
S2O,OOO,000 in junk that goes by the
name of art merely because it is old
or has been handled by kings Nei-
ther Jane Addams nor Cean Sumner
has, or is ever likely to have, much
of a collection of art We suspect,
however, that each of them does more
every week for humanity than Nor
gan has done along that line in all
his life.

JUDGE COOPER
IS OVERRULED
ON KUkAIAU

After hearing argument this morn
ing the Supreme Court handed down
a decision ovcrruling the order made
by Judge Cooper in the Circuit Court
directing the mandamus writ asked
for by Robert Horner against the Ku-
kauai Plantation Company, Ltd, and
Albert Horner, its president. to issue
despite the appeal that had been made
to the higher tribunal
The case has been one of orders and
appeals throughout. The first action
taken was when Robert Horncr applied
for a writ of mandamus on the plan
tation and its president "a force them
to call the annual meeting of the stock
holders. This was based on the fact
that Robert Ilorner now holds the ma +,
iority of the shares and that, as he al
legged. the meeting should have been
called in October of last year. The
defendants answered that the date Of
the meeting. by II majority vote last
year, had been set for February of this
year. Judge Cooper ruled in favor of
Robert Horner and ordered the writ to
issue
The defendants then appealed against
this ruling and the matter dropped for
the time being. Robert Horncr brought
further action, however, on the ground
that the defendants were not trying to
push the matter through expeditiously.
The defendants replied that Judge
Cooper, before whom the case was
brought, had no jurisdiction in the
matter. as there was an appeal pend
ing before the Supreme Court. The
Judge ordered that the writ issue In
spite of the appeal and that II was to
be returnable by January ~ This was
done and the papers were served on
Albert Horner in Hilo. He accepted
service and came back to Honolulu. on
the advice of his attorneys-Thomp-
son. Wilder, Watson q Lymer-he did
nothing in the matter and an order
citing him for contempt was then is
sued in the Circuit Court.
Albert Horner appealed to the SUI
preme Court to have probationary
order issued against this, however, ard
Judge Cooper was ordered not to do
further in the matter. This
morning when the case came up for
argument the Supreme Court held that
Judge Copper had no Jurisdiction In the
matter
The hearing on the original appeal
against the Issuance OF the first man
damus comes up for hearing before the
Supreme Court Tuesday morning next.

candidacy for the vacant surgeon gen.

Beginning with Governor Frear, all
the most prominent men in the Ha-
waiian Islands cabled and wrote the
President urging him to designate DIR.
Blue for the vacancy. These COM
munications were all bona fide and did
not result from a general propaganda.
They followed from individual interest
and were easily recognizable as being
honest and sincere tributes to the abil-
ity OF DIR. Blue.
It is seldom that any community has
given such spontaneous and unsought
endorsement TO any candidate for Of
flee. This fact was fully realized by
President Taft and largely influenced
him in making the final selection.
