HAWAII SUGAR MEN
FEAR THE NEW TARIFF
Gov. Frear Hopes, However,
That Industry viii Survive
Effects of Law.

That the sugar industry in Hawaii
the chief industry of the territory. is
being greatly harmed through fear of
the results of the new tariff law, but
that he has hopes that the industry will
survive, was Il statement made last
night by Gov. Frear, who was in WASH
ington on a vacation pending the con-
firmation of his successors appoint
ment by the Senate. Gov. Frear left
for New York last night.
Gov. Frear said he expected that
some of the smaller sugar concerns In
Hawaii would be forced to go out of
business because of the Underwood
tariff law, but that he thought the
stronger concerns would be able to con-
tinue. The sugar business In the terri

Regarding the characterization OF the
territory. Gov. Frear declared that
Hawaii is fast becoming an ideal place
to live. A constitutional government has
been in operation in the territory for SO
long, he said. that the people OF the
islands are almost perfectly content with
their status governmentally.
He also mentioned the fact that the

Another was that the court had reached
a decision to vote this afternoon as to
whether or not the testimony In question
should be sent to the assembly as the
basis for the new article. 1t was re-
ported that a majority of the judges of
the court of appeals had expressed them
selves in favor of such course on the
ground that to amend article wou.d
be unconstitutional Many of the sem
ators, however. strongly opposed this
acton. it was said. and the question be-
came the subject Of bitter debate, finally
resolving itself into the passage Of o

SUFFERS DIRECT
PRIMARY BILL
IS DEFEATED
New York State Senators Vote
Down the Measure
GOVERNOR ARRAIGNED
Chief Executive Taken to Task for
His Threat to Force Act Upon
Legislators.

Albany, April Ex-Governor Suffers
statewide direct primary bill was
overwhelmingly defeated by the Sen
ate today. Only eight of the fifty SEN
ators whose votes were recorded. sup
ported the measure. They were Sen
ators Mcknight, the introducer;
O'Keefe Seeley, Wende and Wheeler.
Democrats; Whitney, Republican;
Duhamel, Democrat and Independence
League, and Palmer, Republican and
Progressive.
Several members Of the Democratic
majority, picking up the gauntlet
which the governor threw down last
Saturday when he threatened to drive
from the party any who opposed the
bill, bitterly arraigned the executive
for the language he used in vetoing
the Blauvelt amendments to the pres
ent primary and election law.
Almost Immediately after the de.
cisive vote was announced the Blau-
welt bill, slightly changed from the
form in which it was vetoed on the
ground that it was a fraud" and q
miserable makeshift," was reintro-
duced and advanced to the order of
final passage.
Governor Sulzer attributes the de-
feat of the bill to the fact that both
the Democrats and Republicans were
bound by caucus action to vote
against II.
