REPUBLICANS
IN FULL FORCE
Hole In the Ground Cannot Damp
Enthusiasm - Dowsett
on Suffrage.
tFrom "Wednesday Adversely

Last night was Republican night with
the politicians, rs their Democratic Oh.
poncnts did not hold any meetings in
either of the two districts, leaving the
field clear to the q. o. Z. candidates.
In the fourth district the party man.
ayers chose about the worst place pos.
siblo to hold their meeting, and instead
of holding forth at the Moiiiih school.
house as they have done in the past,
the arrangements were made for this
meeting to be held in rear of the Jap.
anese camp at the entrance to the Moi.
liili rock-quarry and the people who
gathered here were made to sit in the
roadway where the occasional gusts of
wind would blow quantities of dust in
to their faces.
The several speakers were well re.
ceived by those present and at times the
gathering grew enthusiastic over the ap.
pearance of some candidate on the
stand ms well as over the several plat
form subjects touched upon by the can.
didates.
Colonel Sam Parker was the lion of
the hour with those present and was re-
ceived with much applause. During his
talk, the colonel managed to keep his
audience in good humor and his request
for support in November was well re-
ceived.
Fifth District Turns Out.
Over in the fifth district very
much larger crowd greeted the speakers
who gathered at the Charley Achi home
to preach the Republican doctrine. John
G. Lane acted MS master of ceremonies
ln ipty -,
rapid fire succession leaving no long
tiresome intervals before the next
speaker took the stand
Jack Dowsett, candidate for the SEN
ate, devoted his talk to the subject of
equal suffrage. The speaker showed
his audience how the Republican party
had included this subject in their ter
ritorial platform, thus making it obi
gatory for the Republican senate and
house to petition congress to give Ha-
waii equal suffrage. The Bourbons, on
the other hand, had left this subject out
of their territorial platform and when
they saw what the Republicans had
done they put in a suffrage plank in
the county platform. The speaker also
asked his listeners to figure out if pos.
sible how any board of supervisors
could give Hawaii equal suffrage.
Long Roll of Speakers.
The following speakers were present.
ed during the evening at this gather
ing; j. NJ. Dowsett, George +. Renton,
A. S. Kaleiopu, Carlos Long, J. B. Enos,

the corner of Fort and School streets
for the fourth district and at Aiea in

pl Is Run Into by Freight
Near Month, La.

New Orleans, Nov 13.-Fourteen
persuasive whites and nine colored
lost their lives and As others were
injured, three probably fatally. in a
rear-end collision on the Yazoo &
Mississippi Valley railroad near
MONTE. La.
A freight train making % miles an
hour ran into an excursion train that
was barely moving. A fagman, who
has disappeared and is now sought by
detectives, fe;led to execute the en-
gineer's signals, and ran only two teie-
graph poles distant from the excur-
sion to flag the oncoming freight.
The Louisiana state railroad COM
mission will start an investigation Of
the wreck at Baton Rouge, and has
called on the interstate commerce
commission at Washington to assist.
Fire started in two of the coaches
after the collision, adding to the hor-
ror Of the victims, many Of whom sui
fered for hours before being cut from
the ruins There were many more
negroes than whites on the excursion,
which was returning from New Or
leans to Woodville, Miss, and many
of them, panic-stricken, retarded the
work of rescue. Two trains bore the
wounded and dead to New Orleans.

Bell Telephone, Western Union and
Western Electric Join in Plan.

Bell Telephone, Western Union and
Western Electric Join in Plan.
Chicago, Nov. 12.-Ten million of
dollars, it was announced Sunday,
will be appropriated on January 1,
1918, by the associated interests con-
trolling the Bell telephone system, the
Western Union Telegraph compan!
and the Western Electric company, as
permanent pension fund for their
$4,000 employees. Including the de-
pendents of these workers, 25O,00G
persons will be in line for benefits.
Annual appropriations from the
treasures of the allied companies will
keep this fund up to the $10,000,O00
mark, and 1t will be administered sole
ly in the interests of the Industrial
army serving the three concerns, an
army more than twice as large as the
standing military force Of the United
States.
Under the plan as announced the
provisional pension system has been
replaced by a permanent plan which
provides not only pensions, but also
for sickness and accident disability
and for the new feature of life insur-
ance.
All of the Bell Telephone companies
and their associated companies will
have part in the new plan.

PITAbLE PLIGHT
OF TURKISH ARMY
is DESCRIBED BY PARIS
PAPER.
WRETCHES FIGHT FOR FOOD
Starving and shivering, They Beg in
Vain for ReIief-No Medical AS
sistance for the Wounded, Who
Perish by Wayside.

Paris, Nov. 13.-Jean Rodes, a staff
correspondent of the Temps, who has
reached Constantinople from the war
zone, sends vivid picture Of the mis-
cry of the Turkish soldiers and the
disorganization of the Turkish army.
1--WE have witnessed the failure of
the Turk as a soldier" says Rodes
I'VE have seen him dying of hun
ger, worn out by fatigue, wrecked by
suffering, and running away after hav-
ing abandoned his place In the COM
bat.
L have never seen more poignant
picture of human distress than that
presented by these unhappy men,
thrown into one of the most terrible
wars in history without food, without
medical attention, almost without
chiefs, almost without arms At Seid-
Ter l saw soldier whose right hand
had been severed hold out to us, beg
ging for medical help, the bleeding
stump around which he had tied a
piece of Irvine.
Il saw long lines Of famished men
who came to our tent begging for
crumb of bread and staggering away
without murmur of complaint when
told that we had none to give. l saw
a thousand wounded leaving trail
of blood as they dragged themselves
toward Tchorlu. l saw hundreds of
others fall by the wayside dying from
wounds and fatigue.
Soldiers Fight for Food.
AT Tchorlu a column Of soldiers,
terrible in appearance, staggered
through the streets in driving rain
and wind storm. No one paid any at
tention to them. They had no shell
ter. nothing to eat From a by
bakery an officer threw out handfuls
of bread and the soldiers fought for
the loaves More than half of them

"All the houses were closed. Prac-
tically all the population had fed, and
those who remained barricaded them
selves within, trembling with fear.
The soldiers knocked vainly at the
barred doors.

even the stables remained inhospita-

ANTITRUST CASES ARE
RUSHED BY GOVERNMENT
Attorney General Endeavors to Hav4
Pending Cases Closed Up Be-
fore March &.

Washington, Nov. 12-All of the
pending antitrust prosecutions will be
pushed to a close, if possible, by the
department of justice before the Taft
administration relinquishes the reins
of government to Woodrow Wilson
and his cabinet on March 4 next
The taking Of testimony in most of
the suits will have been completed,
it is believed, and the cases be be-
fore the courts for decision before the
Republican administration expires
While the issues have been joined in
the two biggest pending cases-the
suits against the alleged steel and
harvester conbines-it is not thought
they will be ready for decision by
March 4.
The steel suit probably will extend
we'll into the new administration, but
onlclals foresee the end of the testi-
mony and arguments In the harvester
case by April or May.
Several of the suits against retail
lumber dealers associations, regard
ed as among the most important cases
because they involve the extent of the
rights Of "middlemen" in commerce,
will in all probability be ready for de-
termination before President Taft re-
tires
The suit against the towing trust
on the great lakes is awaiting the de-
cision of the district court in CleVe-
land, while it is believed the United
States Supreme court may give an
opinion in the hard coaI' suit and
the cotton corner" suit this week.
While the taking of testimony IN
the civil suit for the dissolution of the
American Sugar Refining company is
approaching conclusion, it is reported
that Attorney General Wickersham
will not retry the criminal sugar case,
which resulted in disagreement OF
the jury.

SPANS PREMIER ::
IS ASSASS|NATED
Anarchist Approaches Canaleias
With Gun in Handkerchief.
SLAYER COMMITS SUICIDE
Murder Is Believed to Have Been
Caused by Execution of Professor
Ferrer - King Alfonso Grief
Stricken Because of Deed.

Madrid, Nov. 13.-Premier Canale-
jes of Spain was assassinated by an
anarchist in this city Tuesday. The
premier was shot to death as he stood
upon the steps Of the home office.
The assassin, who subsequently COM
mitted suicide, was identified as Man
ual Pardias Zarrate. dangerous rad
iical who has been under police sur
veillance.
News Of the assassination spread at
once throughout the city and created
intense excitement When King AL
fonso heard of it he is said to have
wept with grief.
The anarchist, who had evidently
been waiting for some time to get a
chance to fire upon the premier rush
ed forward as though to address a pc
tition to the government official when
he appeared on the steps Of the home
office.
Because of the dangerous state Of
political unrest in Spain, the premier
had been warned repeatedly to retain
a guard about his person, but Senior
Canalejas paid no attention to this in
junction and frequently went about
unattended. He had received a num-
Der of death threats.
The police believe that the assas-
sination is direct outcome of the
execution of Professor Ferrer, the
Republican, who was condemned and
put to death for his radical writings
about year and a half ago.
Zarrate shot himself with the same
revolver that had taken the life of
Senior Canalejas.
The assassination was witnessed by
a number Of persons, but happened SO
quickly that they could give no aid.
AS the anarchist sprang toward Pre-
mier Canalejas he pulled a handker-
chief from his pocket in which was
a concealed revolver. At the instant
Senior Canalejas slightly turned his
head, Zarrate, taking quick aim, fired
and the bullet struck the premier be-
hind the right ear.
Before Senior Canaleias toppled q
second shot was fired, which also
struck him in the head. AS several
soldiers who stood beside the door of
the home office sprang forward Ear
rate turned the revolver against his
heart and pulled the trigger.
The two bodies fell within a few
feet of each other
Medical aid was at once summoned
and soldiers were brought from the
barracks to prevent the escape Of any
accOmplices of the assassin who might
be near by
Although the physicians arrived
within a few moments Premier Conal-
ejas was already dead. In his hand
he clasped some papers which he had
been carrying when shot The first
shot had apparently been fatal.

NO MEDICINE
But Change of Food Gave Final Relief.

Most diseases start in the alimen-
tary canal-stomach and bowels
A great deal Of our stomach and
bowel troubles come from eating too
much starchy and greasy food.
The stomach does not digest any
of the starchy food we eat-white
bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, ETC.
these things are digested in the small
intestines, and if we eat too much, as
most Of us do the organs that should
digest this kind Of food are overcome
by excess of work, so that fermenta-
ton, Indigestion. and a long train Of
ails result.
Too much fat also is hard to digest
and this is changed into acids, sour
stomach, belching gas, and a bloated,
heavy feeling.
In these conditions a change from
indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will
work wonders in not only relieving
the, distress but in building up a
strong digestion, clear brain and
steady nerves. A Wash. woman
writes:

TO CONTINUE HOME RULE FIGHT
British Government Refuses to Resign
After Its Defeat.

London, Nov. notwithstanding
the government was defeated in the
house of commons on an amendment
to the home rule bill, causing much
rejoicing among the Conservatives.
the cabinet decided that it would not
retire from office.
The government will, therefore,
move at an early day for the recon-
initial of the bill and expects to be
victorious, inasmuch as the ballot
was a snap vote and was taken when
many of the supporters Of the govern
ment had not returned to town from
the week ends. The course of the
government finds many supporters,
the opinion being almost unanimous
that the cabinet was not actuated in
its declining to resign solely by the
defeat, but on account of the situation
in the Balkan states.
The jeopardizing Of lreland's
chances of winning self-government
came when an amendment hostile to
the measure was put through by a
vote of 228 to 206

RENO WILL SOON LOSE TITLE.
Next Nevada Legislature VIII Be OPP
posed to Divorce Law.

Reno, New, Nov Zone of the
many surprising results of the recent
elections is that after January l Ne
vada will no longer be the divorce
center of the United States. Complete
returns show that the next legislature
will have a majority opposed to the
present lax divorce law, which have
brought thousands of women and men
into the state for the sole purpose of
freeing themselves from burdensome
matrimonial bonds.
Many of the bona ffde citizens of
the state have held that the frivolous
divorce colony of Reno was public
scandal and more restrictive laws
was made a campaign issue.
State Senator w. D. Jones of Reno,
father of the time-lock divorce law,
and regular Democratic nominee, was
defeated for reelection on the divorce
law issue by practically unknown
farmer nominated by petition.

JACK JOHSON SENT TO JAIL.
Goes to Cell After Detection of Bond
"Frameup,"

Chicago, Nov. 11.-John Arthur
Johnson, negro pugilist, went to cell
sos of the county Jail. He was pris-
oner of the United States government,
held without bonds on order Of Judge
Kenesaw Mountain Lands. He was
charged with transporting a white girl
across state lines for immoral pur-
poses.
Judge Lands, in whose court the
prize fighter spent an eventful day lis
tening to efforts made in his behalf
by counsel to obtain his freedom, had
refused to release the prisoner, al
though Mrs. Tiny Johnson, his mother,
offered to schedule $4,000 in real es-
tate
The Judge decided to take this un-
alterable attitude as the result of
''frameup" which band of profession
al straw bondsmen attempted to i'm
pose on the court.
