CAPTAINS WIN ALL DEMANDS
R0UT COMPANY AT ALL POINTS

The board OF directors of the com
pany was practically in continuous ses-
,ion all OF the afternoon, part OF the
lime with United States District At
orney Brcckons in attendance as priv
tie consulting counsel.
Following a session of the board af
ter the failure to compromise at the
asst conference another meeting was az
ranged for between subcommittee or
the board and Attorney Humphreys
Tor the evening at eight o o'clock.
All Ready to Sail.
In spite of a report to the contrary
not a boat of the Inter Island company
sailed from this port yesterday. On
the other hand the steamer j. A. Cum
Minis sailed at one O'Clock yesterday
afternoon for Kauai ports with the
United States mail. Late last evening
the James Makee arrived from its tour
of Molokai and Maui ports and, it was
announced, will leave again this morn
ing for the same ports with mail alone,
unless other arrangements are made
early today.
Hundreds of would.be passengers
called at the Inter Island Office on
Queen street, or telephoned, to find out
when the steamers would sail for the
ports they wished to reach and the
clerks were kept busy explaining that
no boats would leave until today, If
then. ''Call up again in the morning, -
was the advice generally handed out.
Meanwhile the steamers themselves
lay at their respective wharves ready
to sail at moment s notice, with
freight on board, steam up and most
of their crews in reserve.
"Holdup," Say Many.
Everywhere throughout the business
section of the city free expression was
given to the opinion that the action
of the men in its latest phase was a
'holdup." This was not altogether
because of the extra demand for such
n material raise in wages ac for the
serious Inconvenience to which the
travelling public and especially the
business interests of the community
were subjected

WOOL BILL VETOED
As TOO DRASTIC
BY AssOciated Press cable.

WASHINGTON, August 9.-Presi-
dent Taft today vetoed the wool tariff
revision bill. He said that the low
rates called for under the bill meant
disaster to home industry. He has ap-
pealed to congress to not adjourn until
a bill is passed that substantially re-
duces the tariff without destroying the
protection to American industry that
it affords.
1t is believed that the steel, cotton
and sugar bills, if sugar bill is
passed, will be vetoed also, as well as
the excise bill.

BiIIboards Not in Favor With
Two More Managements-
Trade Losers, They Say.

The crusade by the Outdoor Circle
of the Kilohana Art League against
billboards is showing results and bust
ness men who cater to the trade of the
women of Honolulu who have civic
pride realize that it is not profitable
advertising.
"When l was on the mainland, -
said John Lennox, manager for the
Sachs Dry Goods Company, "I bought
a lot of handsome posters suited to our
trade and sent them down to Honolulu
for use. At the same time wrote a
letter to Mr.. Battersby, my assistant,
to look carefully into the opposition
and find out If it was as strong as it
appeared in the columns of The Adver-
tiser, which l was getting by every

They are in opposition TO all ideas of
civic pride.
Hopp s. Co., Too.
Hopp & Co., who have just been
conducting one of the most successful
clearing sales in the history of their
business, have also become thoroughly
convinced of the wisdom of keeping off
the billboards.
''We have stored away in our base
ment, getting shopworn and dusty,
whole consignment of posters,' says
the manager OF the business. "They
were ordered for MS with an idea of
posting the city, but after inquiring
around among our best customers, we
found out that we would lose great
deal II we had the posters put up, so
we have thrown them away. It is much
better for us TO lose the hundred OF so
dollars We put into posters than the
many hundred and the good will OF
many people Ia addition, we would lose

JUST ONE INSTANCE.

Frank Sparks the well-known politi-
cal writer, tells the following interest
ing anecdote
One of the interesting situations that
arose in the bull moose convention was
the spectacle of Frank Knox Of Michi-
gan acting under the orders OF Colonel
Roosevelt, and as chairman Of the COM
mittee on credentials, reporting against
the seating of any negro delegations
from the south. Among THESE dele
gates TINS cast out, just because they
were black was a delegation from Mis-
sissippi
Now, in the campaign preceding the
republican national convention when
Knox was chasing around the country
in the interest of Roosevelt he went 70
Mississippi. for the purpose Of putting
mp Roosevelt delegation from that
state According to Knox's own story
Of that affair he selected a negro as
chairman OF the convention. The negro
took the stand but Immediately the
white man who had been named by
those who opposed the negro poked a
revolver into the negro's ribs and he
promptly left the stage. The negro,
however, under Knox's orders. mounted
chair in the rear Of the room and
conducted Roosevelt convention there.
That delegation was one of those nm
der consideration at the republican
national convention. The fact that the
Roosevelt delegation was black and
that the negro chairman selected by
Knox mad been driven from the stage
with a gun was one OF the arguments
used by the Roosevelt forces in seeking
10 seat the delegation
When the contest was denied Mr..
Roosevelt yelled "thief" and ''robber'
a. the top Of his lungs But when il
came to his own bull moose convention
Roosevelt himself ordered that the ne
gro delegation from Mississippi be re-
fused seats because they were black,
and for no other reason. Houghton

Mr.. Roosevelt is not alone in being
sympathetic with advanced social leg
islation. Even the conservative Re-
publican platform is sincere in declar-
ing that the Republican party will
strive not only in the nation, but in
the several states TO enact the neces-
sary legislation TO safeguard the public
nealtli, to limit effectively the labor OF
women and children, to protect wage
earners engaged In dangerous occupa-
tions, to enact comprehensive and gen.
erous workmen's compensation laws
and in all possible ways TO
satisfy the just demand of the people
for the study and solution OF the com
lex and constantly changing problems
of social welfare. The advance under
the old party auspices along these lines
has been notable in recent years, es-
pecially ia such states as Massachusetts,
and Wisconsin and the federal govern
ment mas only recently established a
children's bureau and placed Miss
Lathrop OF Hull house in charge Of IT,.
The assumption that a new political
party is needed 10 promote legislation
Of this character is wholly ill-founded.
Such measures should not be made par
tisan parties naturally compete in en-
acting them, as they do in England

reformers in this country who Will see
