What MIGHT Be Done.

What might be done if men were wise
What glorious deeds, my suffering
brother,
Would they unite
In love and right,
And cease their scorn of one another.
0ppression'S heart might be tmbued
With kndiing drops of loving kindness
And knowledge pour
From shore to shore
Light on the eyes of mental blindness.
All slavery, warfare, lies and wrongs,
All vice and crime might die together
And wine and corn
70 each man born.
BE free as warmth in summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect
In self-respect
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
What might be done? This might be
done,
And more than this. my suffering
brother
More than the tongue
Fer saiu or sung,
If men were wise and loved each other.

bccme citizens and we intend to let
them hear from us.
"We know that there is no use ask

matter of having it made illegal to en-
ploy Others than citizens on federal con.

POI MAKERS ASK

Damages of from one to four thou
sand dollars each are asked by four
poi makers whose cases came up be-
fore Judge Cooper yesterday morning
tor argument on demurrer. After argu-
ment had been made by both sides the
court sustained the demurrer of the city
and county and gave the compliments
twenty days in which to prepare new
papers.
This suit grew out of the closing of
poi shops last spring during the cholera
scare, the owners alleging that they
were damaged to considerable amounts
by the action of the officials of the
city and county. All of the suits were
brought by Chinese, the one under
argument being that of Lum Pong, but
the decision of the court holding in the
other three as well on account of the
basis of action being the same.

KAUk! COMPANY
TO CALL IN BONDS
Electric. Power Company to Be
Put Firmly on Its Feet
With Debts Paid.

The Kauai Electric Company, Ltd.
through the Hawaiian Trust Company
trustee under the deed of trust dated
February 8, 1905, will call in all its
outstanding bonded indebtedness
amounting to about $l50,000, thereby
practically wiping out all the debts
against the company and placing 1T
firmly upon its feet. The bonds will
be redeemed on and after March /.
The company has a fine plant at
Wainiha where power is generated by
water power for the current which
operates much of the mechanical ap.
planes of the McBryde Sugar Com
pany, including all its pumps. Until
the building the Wainiha power plant
was effected the McBryde pumps were
operated by steam and were clumsy in
comparison with the smaller electric
pump put in at the same time as the
Wainiha plant, A much greater vol
ume of water was made available by
the electric pumps than before.
The company is one of the largest
cane producers on the Garden Island,
and has many subsidiary companies
operating under it, such as the Kauai
Electric Company. The calling in of
the outstanding bonds of the electric
company will result in a new financial
adjustment, and will materially reduce
the amount of interest now being paid
out. The sugar company is paying
heavy interest annually on a large
bond issue which aggregates about 49,
100000, and in addition is paying inter
est on about three-quarters of a mil
lion dollars, expended in the upbuild-
ing of the estate.
Alexander & Baldwin, the agents, ii
is understood, are developing MeBryde
in a manner which will give the stock
holders an optimistic opinion of the
future of their big estate.

COMMITTEE WANTS
MURRAY TO GET
OUT OF POLITICS

The Territorial Central Republican
Committee has requested H. E. Murray,
supervisor, to resign and get down and
out of official life. Murray has re-
piled that he will do neither.
The resignation, it is stated, was re-
quested because of the notoriety aris-
ing from the death of Timoteo Her
nandez, the crippled Porto Rican, who
was struck by Murray, and because of
other incidents in the supervisorial
career of Murray which have brought
diseredit upon the Republican party and
the government.
After Murray was relieved of further
appearances before courts of law by
action of the grand jury Murray de-
cided that he was exonerated, and re-
rused to get out.
The Republican committee is of the
opinion that Murray's usefulness as an
official is at an end,

UNCLE SAM HAS
ACCEPTED WORK
Pearl Harbor Bar Sections Pau
Concannon Gets Big
Contract.
ltrom snndny 5 Advertiser.l

The United States Navy Department
has officially declared that the bar sec
ticns to the channel leading to Pearl
Harbor have been finished by the Ha.
waiian Dredging Company. Work of
pulverizing the coral reef there, begun
eleven years ago, is completed and the
dredging machines taken off. The work
was finished Friday night, and the final
inspection made yesterday morning by
the navyis inspectors, who declared the
work done, fulfilling all the terms OF
the contract.
The Hawaiian Dredging Company
found the hardest part of the entire
contract on the bar, where the dredg'
ing machines were subject to heavy
swells for the work was practically in
the open sea. Whenever southerly
wind came up it was almost impossible
to do any work, and there were long
and expensive delays on account of bad
weather.
The contractors have found that the
work of polishing and sandpapering the
bottom of the channel has been more
difficult than they estimated and al.
though President w. +. Dillingham; ex-
pected to finish every bit of the con
tract yesterday he found, upon exam
ming reports from the dredging men,
that day or two more will be required
to polish off one of the inner sections

Coast contractor, was about $4,000. Lo
