question to a gentleman who hap
pened in the room: What does
all this unrest in the islands mean?
There seems to be more than has
come to Washington" The person
to whom the question was put not
answering the query promptly Sc
cretary Knox answered it for him
this way.
There is too much Of the busi-
ness Of the country controlled by
too few; it savors of a gigantic trust
which should be ended.
And then Secretary Fisher re-
peated his somewhat famous remark:
There are greater things under
lying affairs in Hawaii, and causing
turmoil in a business way, than the
objection to the Governor which
ended in the charges being made. :"
OF course these remarks may not
mean anything important to the
people Of the islands, and then again
they may. Knox is a peculiar little
fellow who frequently emphasizes
his remarks in a manner more forca-
bic than fastideous. It is needless to
say that when he expressed himself
as 1 have noted above the dashes
and what-not were there. Unless
the change in the administration at
Washington interferes, / expect to
have some interesting reading in
the Fisher document.
AFTER A JOB.
1 understand one of the bright
and shining lights Of the newspaper
fraternity is an applicant for the
position of representative of the
Chamber of Commerce and Mer-
chants Association at Washington.
Also 1 am told there is pposition
to the appointment of anyone to
the place for the reason that as
Ballou is toting for the sugar inter-
ests, which is the largest by long
odds, the little fellows will need no
staff to lean upon.
ma WANT THEIR PAY.
When the last Central Committee
went out of existence Billy Hoogs,
the treasurer, turned over a clean
slate and balance in cash to the
credit of the new committee. The
difference between the old and the
new was shown in court Monday
when Bad Debt Collector Mills Sc
cured a judgement against the COM
mittee for a debt due Deering, a
chauffeur, for services rendered and
it is said on the street today that a
lot of the patriots at $500 per diem,
who were supposed to hand in
truthful reports of conditions in the
various precincts, are bowling for
the last few weeks pay. Automo-
bile drivers and owners now 60
about with continual crouch be-
cause they have not been paid. 1t
does not reflect credit on the men
who held the destinies of the party
in the hollow of their collective
hand. They have had the expert
ence filed away carefully in their
individual safe deposit boxes in one
of the trust companies.

Especial Correspondence. ]
HONOLULU, Nov. %.

DONOLOLO, NoV' ~.
The gubernatorial talk seems tc
be sitting down to hard pan so that
McCandless is about the only one
with his head above the dust pile.
E. M. Watson, the attorney, came
out in the Star Bulletin on Monday
acknowledging an honor which his
friends seem to think will be thrust
upon him. He is a good citizen,
a good lawyer and would inquest
ionably make an acceptable COVER
nor. But Link crops up just the
same and one hears very little OF
Mr.. Waller so that he may drop
out, or pop up, later as dark horse.
w. A. Kinney, in riding west to
San Francisco, two weeks ago, ex-
pressed the belief to a friend that
Link would be the next governor.
In fact Kinney is back of McCand-
less in spite Of the fact that he has
himself been mentioned as a posi-
bility.
TRUB sTATE.
The true state of affairs in the
democratic party on this island is
not made public by those who
know. but Rivenburg did not hesi-
tate to say the other day that he and
Link have had serious difference
and Link was heard to sputter pro-
fame words to a degree that was
unmistakable in their intent. He
told Rivenburg he was a lot of things
unfit for publication, and Riv. told
Link to 60 to the tap and wash out
his mouth. 1t looks as though
there was real break between the
powers. In a small coterie McCand-
less wants to be the bull moose,
not Rooseveltan, of the crowd,
and if he is not allowed everything
in sight, motion or resolution, he
threatens to quit playing and go
back to his water rights. In that
respect he is almost babyish.
WHAT Is TO COME.
While on the subject of dem ocracy
it is we'll to consider what the big
fellows in Washington will do after
the Fourth OF March. Wilson and
Champ Clarke express themselves in
favor of lighter duties on sugar and
everything else, in fact, that tends
to increase the cost of living. 1
have thought over the matter good
deal and ask myself what it is the
sugar of peopleHawaii will have to
put up for an argument why the
duty should remain. Secretary
Fisher was pretty we'll convinced
that the few individual planters,
sometimes called homesteaders, are
not profiting largely through their
efforts to grow cane. 1t is not on
record where the men have more
than come out even.

fleet the handwriting on the wall: /:

lieve in Protection and who, with
Lincoln, think it better to ''have
both the goods and the money for
the goods, in the country than to
send the money to foreign countries,
while our own workmen starve.
A good story by Judge o. j. Page,
of Marion, ILL.,, is printed herewith.
1t will show the Democrats of Maui
how mistaken they were in voting
for anything Democratic. The
story follows:
Illustrating the mistaken impress
sion that some farmers have of con-
ditions, the speaker related an in
cident Of young Illinois farmer
who recently went to a hardware
store to buy buggy. The young
man had heard the Democratic
claim that the Tariff was robbing
him by raising the prices of what
he had to buy and, like other
thoughtless people, believed it..
Especials trees had been laid by those
to whom he had listened on the
vast increase in the prices Of farm
machinery, and he had been made
to believe that what he had to buy
should be no higher than it was in
1896, wheu nobody had money to
buy anything.
It was before the new crop Of
corn had begun to be marketed and
the price was around 80 cents that
the young farmer went to his dealer
to get the buggy. He was asked to
pay s65 for a Moon vehicle, manu-
factured in st. Louis by American
labor, from American materials.
Why" said the farmer, my
father bought that very same buggy
from this very same store in 1895
much cheaper than that, and now 1
know it is true that prices have been
raised, as the Democrats claim, and
that 1 am being robbed. Guess I'll
have to stand for the robbery and
take the buggy, but intend to get
even by voting for Wilson,
Let's see if what you say is true. !"
returned the merchant. He opened
his ledger at the page containing
the account of the parent who had
bought the cheap buggy in 1896.
Here is the item, and you are
right" the merchant admitted.
THE books show that your father
bought Moon buggy from me in
1896 fol- $54."
Il told you So, exultantly cried
the customer. "And now how are
you going to get around the claim
that we farmers are being robbed
by Tariff taxes?"
The merchant was crestfallen for
a moment and apparently could not
make up his mind what to say, until
presently his eye caught an item on
the credit side of the ledger. 1t
was the payment for the s54 buggy
and read, "by 300 bushels of corn,
at 18 cents per bushel, $54."
WELL" said the merchant,
here it is shown that your father
hauled me 300 bushels of corn to
pay for that buggy, shoveling it into
my crib a shovelful at time. Now
you bring me 800 bushels of corn.
Hitch up to that s65 buggy.
Drive up little and / will try
to show you about this robbery
business. l went to tie on behind
you this $50 farm wagon. You
have a good strong team and can
pull more. Take this s45 moving
machine. There she is.

WOMAN STIRS THINGS

A deal was Cousumatel last week whereby Mrs. Fred Carter took over the interests of Jim Muckler in the Jumbo and Prospertor associations on Flat creek.
 For some weeks past the Yukon Gold Company had been after the MuckIer interests, but found it im- possible to come to terms with the owner. It is understood that Mr. MuckIer was asking as high as S9,oOO for his holdings, while the Yukon Gold Company was not pre- pared Co offer more than &l.5Oo cash.
 Mrs. Fred Carter heard or the ue- gotiations, and as soon as she learn ed of the deadlock made a cash pro posal to Mr. MuckIer. After lit- tle bargaining Mrs. Carter handed over S2,OOO in cash and Mr. Muck

STREET SUITS

~ OFT cheviots and serges will be
the accepted materials for out
- ing dresses and suits for general
street wear.
The woman who has blue serge
suit will be decidedly "in it, so far as
fashion goes, especially if it is
trimmed with satin or fur.
One of the most attractive models
seen for an outing frock was of sap
phire blue serge with an almost in
visible pinstripe woven in it, and it
was trimmed with bias hands of blue
and-black striped satin.
The bodice was cut with half
length kimono sleeves. From the
shoulder line, both back and front
was two-inch tuck each side extend
ing to the slightly raised waist line.
One side of the bodice was finished
with deep square rever, which fell
! from the shoulder almost to the waist
and was bordered with a band of
striped silk, mitered at the corner.
A large satin-covered button and
simulated button hole caught it down
to the front of the bodice.
The left side of the bodice folded
under perfectly plain. but had at
tached to it a lace-edged frill of white
batiste. which peeped out from IN
derneath the rever. A similar frill
finished the round neck.
Disappointed cuffs of satin laid
back over the sleeves. The bodice
and skirt were joined with a narrow
stitched girdle, which fastened in
front with a satin-covered button
The skirt was perfectly plain, ex-
cepting for a shaped band of satin
about the hem. It opened at the left
side of the front and was slit up from
the lower edge for II inches, where
a pIeating of silk was set in under
meath, giving the skirt slight full
ness at the hem
! exceedingly attractive for on all
around dress which can be worn all
winter under a long coat or with
furs

FROM FASHIONDOM
BY MRS. KINGSLEY.

UGH stunning variety OF SUITS
are here for our delectation! Let
- me describe some to you.
Perhaps the most sensational is of
hampagne-coIored velvet corduroy.
The jacket is almost a draped style,
with loose lines and round shawl
collar that fastened over at one side
over a girdle of golden-brown panne
velvet. Silk fringe edged this collar
and also the half-lengeh sleeves,
which were slashed on the outer edge
Under the velvet sleeves were pulled
undersleeves of chiffon, embroidered
In chenille.
The skirt showed a double arrange
ment of fabrics; the upper skirt edged
and Tapped at the side; the underskirt
was Of darker velvet. 1t was a model
that can be worked out successfully
in less perishable eolors-say, two
shades of blue, green prune color.
Buttons are a feature of many tai
lored suits. One stunning diagonal
material of mixed green and gold has
the upper skirt buttoned at the left
side by cords over a double row of
small gold buttons. The jacket had
the peplum attached to the upper
part by a corded piping and buttons.
Sleeves were trimmed with the same
gold spheres. On the lower part of
the skirt was a broad band of striped
silk in the green and gold colors cut
on the bias. A jabot Of pleated gold
lace trimmed with green velvet but
tons completed the costume
The use Of striped silks and velvets
with two-toned fabrics is noticeable.
Revers and cuffs, with broad bands
on the skirt. seem to be the favorite
method of using stripes.
Ratine in cream bright blue, white
and scarlet is used. for deep collars
on plain suitings- A border of wool
en- embroidery is being used by some
Of the prominent designers, to give
touch Of the season, perhaps.
Maline is lending a softening effect
~ many dark-colored evening gowns
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1912-01-20

One robe du soir is of black satin. 1t
is made with a high waistline, the
tunic wrapped around the figure and
edged with silk fringe. The bodice
is really fichu, showing a striped
effect of black-and-white lace. The
top line is of black chantilly; then
there is a band of folded maline edged
with heavy white lace; the whole is
finished with black velvet This
fichu is caught under a butterfly bow
of empire-green velvet. Here is sure
ly fine idea for using small pieces
of lace and silk.
Black velvet buttons are the trim
ming on lace neckwear.
Sleeves are showing many varia-
lions of the original idea. Some are
draped slashed, capped, pointed, anc
all are edged with fringes, flowers
beads, velvet or cords.
