BRYAN THE LECTURER

William Jennings Bryan's itch for publ lefty,
his propensity for talking have put the admin
istration in rather an unfortunate position and
opened the way for Republican ridicnle and for
attacks from all parts of the country.
BRYAN was discovered three or four days ago
down in Andersonville, y. c., lecturing on a
Chautauqua circuit. When questioned as to his
reasons for going on a lecture tour while hold
ing the most important portfolio in the admins
tration, he said, according to the Associated
Press, that his cabinet salary was insufficient to
paw his living expenses and that he was lectnr-
ingsto make up the deficit.
The statement has an honest ring to it, and
doubtless Mr.. Bryan was entirely honest in max
ing it. However that does not excuse him.
Bryan took the state portfolio with his ewes
open He was no novice in Washington affairs:
A large part of his time has been spent at the
national capital and he has been perfectly aware
of the duties and social obligations that go with
the position. He Must have known, when he ac
cepted Wilson'S invitation to become secretary
of state whether or not he could live within his
salary. And if he could not live within his sal
ary, he had enc of two courses to chCose--to dig
down into his own well-lined pockets and spend
from his private fortune, which is a considerable
one, or else to decline the proffered portfolio
Mr. Bryan is not poor man. a recent biog
rapher stated that he had profited largely from
his lecture tours; he has several handsome
homes: he lives and has lived simply, and
though he is a generous giver, he has not impoy
erished himself So that he is in no danger Of
pauperizing himself or his family because of his
social obligations as secretary Of state
Mr.. Bryan likes to talk. He is a very clever
talker. His Chautanqua lecture tours have been
wonderfully successful and it Is not hard to un
) derStand that he is loath to quit talking.
But Mr.. Bryan's acceptance of a lecture tour
engagement brings mp very serious question of
ethics, as well as of administration. He is paid
by the American people to administer the port
folio of state--net to 60 on lecture tours. As
secretary Ct stated deyolyes upon him to make
: number Of speeches at dinners, receptions and

STARTING SOMETHING

One cf the things that the local commercial
bodies might do to prove their aertncss in seiz-
ing opportunity is TO arrange special excursions
to the other islands.
A Chamber Of Commerce or a Merchants As.
ISOLATION or an Ad Club excursion to Hilo, for
Instance, arranged as an outing for business
men and their wives and-properly advertised and
handled, would be well patronized Possibly
some of the members Of the aforesaid bodies
might hesitate to establish the precedent, but if
no one in the world ever established precedent,
there would be mighty little original work done.
The Hilo Board Of Trade is placing the
charms and advantages Of the Big Island before
the territory through the medium of series of
.striking advertisements. From one of them we
gather that there are many pretty places to stop
in and around Hilo and at variety of prices to
suit all purses From another we CLEAN that Ha-
waits climate is wonderful, her scenery enchant-
ing, her manifold attractions irresistible The
Hilo Board of Trade blfthely offers to back'up
every one Of the emphatic statements of its adj
vertisements.
1t strikes us that Honolulu cannot afford to
let Hiio and the Big Island show more activity
than We do. Anything that Hilo does in the way
Of promotion helps Honolulu; stimulates bust
ness; makes trade and assists pleasure, for it
is the kind of advertising that is going to get
snlts And the results will be an awakening of
interest in island tours that will help all the ter
ritcry.
It's getting to be quiet summer. The man
who will get up on his two feet, let off couple
of real wells for somebody or something and start
some kind of activity will be public benefactor
in dispelling ennui. A live bunch of boosters,
to speak coloquially, who will de little pulling
for an excursion to Hilo, would be public bene-
faction.

sonai profit, he is leaving his pest not To perform
Il public service, not to give back TO The people
value received, not to represent the administers
ton or the nation. but to get five hundred or a
Thousand dollars a night.
In the present case his absence was partcu,
larry unfortunate. At very critical mOmeht,
when Uncle Sans great Monroe doctrine was
in question owing To the Mexican situation, Sec
rotary Bryan was absent from his post. The as
sstant secretaries were at loss. The entire adj
ADMINISTRATION was at loss. The one man whose
presence in Washington was imperative was off
on a private lecture tour. No wonder congress
isasked to take it up and see what will keep Bry-
an on the job. ..a~ =
What Bryan needs is to be told by Wilson
that this sort of thing cannot be allowed. How
Bryan would take 1t is another matter. He is
pretty independent sort of a fellow, accus-
toned to his own way. He is able too, and has
given signs CT making a great secretary of state.
But he should understand that he is a paid en-
ploye of the,American people and as such must
be sure that he is protecting their interests at all
times.

There was to be jubilation of
some sort at Bend, Are, and Col.
Louis w. Hill of the Northern Pacific
was to be the guest of honor. Bend,
as you probably do not know, is the
home oil Col Bill" Hanley, who looks
like Secretary of State Bryan, and
every time Colonel Hill goes to Bend
he makes himself at home at Colonel
Hanley's house. -... 49,.
This time he was expected at 8
a. m. and Colonel Hanley and a JOB
lot of leading citizenss were to meet
him and hand him the welcome-to-our-
beautiful-city stuff. But Colonel Hill
came in during the night. He let
down the tail gate of his special car
and lowered the automobile that he
carries with him and scurried out to
Colonel Hanley's. -. D..

ing in ahead of time, but let him stay.
But the Reception committee was to
call for Hanley at ) a. m. and it did
SO call. Hanley introduced Hill as DR..

them all in his machine and started
to take them to the depot to meet
him. - '">... ..=
Half way there something went
wrong with the machine and Hill
erawled under it to tinker with its in

cCmings Of Colonel Hill E..

FROM TEXAS

The Fort Werth, Texas, Record takes this
view Of the sugar tariff situation:
Hawaii leads the world in cane sugar culture
and manufacture. Hawaiian sugar mills have
been erected in Formosa, the Philippines, Mex
leo, Porto Rice and Cuba. Today after thirteen
years under the American flag, and after splen-
did demonstration of American ingenuity and
science, the Hawaiian sugar planter leads the
world. 1t is coRtended that the free sugar tariff
clause in the Underwood bill will change all this,
and it is also predicted that Japan will adopt the
European policy of stimulating the production
of sugar in the island of Formosa. It will be a
spectacle for the gods should American legisla-
ton make it possible for Formosa to take the
place of Hawaii all ID WELD a larger influence in
the future development of the Orient Keep your

Cred round. ] have also found that
there was no offensive language used
until Umpire Stayton called Barney
Joy back after sending him TO the
Lench, when JOY told him that he
was a crook and a bum and that
he wouldn't play II he umpired. This
language can not be excused. but II
vas used after Barney had been sent
frcm the game, ana was not the cause
of mis- being benched.
Il do not doubt Captain Stayton's
sGuareness, but i do think that he
acted too hastily in chasing Joy out
of the game, because We contend that
his ruling in letting the second run
ner in from third was wrong. There
are no ground rules at Moiliili, which
is regulation size. The players didn't
leave the field, and didn't create any
disturbance during the argument. A
lot CT outsiders IAN onto the diamond

iliili management that they don't want
Joy to play next Sunday, but it isn't
up TO them to dictate cur line up.
The st. Louis team has a contract to
play at Moiliili, and as Joy is reg
ular member of the team, he is en-
titled to play"
Leaving out for the moment the
question of right or wrong of I'm
pire Stayton's decision, the facts re-
main that he sent Joy to the bench,
which he had a right to do under the
rules; that he ordered the st. Louis
players to resume their positions and
continue to play, and that they did not
do so, and that after considerably
more than the one-minpte grace al.
lowed by the rules he declared the
game forfeited to Stanford.
1t is alleged that the rowdyism of
the st. Louis team came from the fact
that the captain, Albert Akana, abso-
lutely refused TO recognize the UNI
pire's authority to declare the game
forfeited, in defiance of the rules, and
that he and his teammates bluffed the
promoters of the series into continu-
ing the game with new umpire.

To sum up this contention, st.
Louis, by the sheer force of bluff, sue
ceeded in chasing an umpire of the
field, reinstating a pitcher that had
been henched. sending a man back
TO third who had already scored, and
reversing a legal decision of forfeit
ed game. IF that isn't rowdy base
ball, what is?" say many who saw
Sundays exhibition.
Now as to the question of ground
rules. st. Louis says there are none
at Moiliili. Stayton says he was act
ing under them.
This is the statement made by Um-
pire Stayton this morning:
When St Louis played Puma
hou at Moiliil for the first time a
few weeks ago. the players were
notified that the same ground
rules were in force as at Athletic
park. When Stanford played for
the. first time against the All
Service, l notified the players to
the same effect. Seeing that st.
Louis. had played three previous
games, and Stanford two, under
these ground rules, did not think
1t necessary to call attention to
them again last Sunday The
fact that they were recognized by
the st. Louis team is shown by
the fact that in the inning before
the disputed ruling came up The
fourth ball pitched to Maple was
a Wild pitch. which went to the :.
grandstand, and he was allowed
to take second base on the play
without protest or question.

from settled. A number of fans
