sion have not been found Thornton and Rams
dell are understood To he still committed To open
opposition in the senate and to final votes
against the measure, but the cooperation on the
part of western Democrats is as intangible as
when the subject began To receive attention in
the house months ago. The names of Newlands,
Hitchcock, Shafroth, Walsh, Thompson, Lane
and Chamberlain continue to be used in this con-
nection, but none of them has given any assur-
ance of aid in the extreme crisis which is APP
preaching. They are being bOmbarded with let.
tiers and kilograms on both sides and, no doubt,
some of them are undergoing a severe strain.
Positive assertion as to the ultimate outcome Of
their deliberations would be hazardous.
The caucus has adopted the Thomas amend
ment, giving the president retaliatory power
against countries discriminating against the
products of the United States, but has not agreed
to tile Ransdell amendment, extending until
March LIST next the time when the Underwood
three-year rates shall go into effect. The Rams
dell amendment is still in committee, but it is ex
pected that it will be reported out very soon. The
caucus is expected to accept it.
The present hope is to have the bill presented
to the senate soon after the reconyening of the
senate after July Fourth When the caucus
completes its work the Republican members of
the finance committee will be called in, but this
proceeding will be a mere formality, as there is
no intention of affording them any opportunity
to assist in committee in shaping the bill.
The Democratic caucus was prevented from
reaching the Ransdell sugar date amendment by
general disagreement over an amendment on
tobacco offered by Senator Hitchcock The feel
ing was SO intense that Mr.. Hitchcock left the
meeting. His departure created much excite
ment If he should refuse to be bound by the
caucus decision, the whole measure might be inn
periled The event is of too recent occurrence for
specific prediction.

PIEKHAM's CHANCE

Democrats in Hawaii will have none but them
selves to thank if a Republican is named govern
or. Mr. Pinkham's political bent, in the absence
of proof to the contrary, is believed to be still
Republican, as it was when he was an officehold-
er in the territorial government under Repub-
lican administration 1t is not to be denied that
the opposition to Pinkham is SO widespread as to
be very nearly general, and Washington should
not for moment suppose that this opposition
is confined to the sugar interests Since Pink
hams name has been mentioned for the govern
orship, ten men have expressed themselves as OPP
posed to him where one has spoken for him. His
energy is often commended but not his judgment
nor his tact
However, Pinkhams strength is the Demo
cratic weakness glaringly displayed here during
the past few months. Even when itbecame APP
parent that E. NJ Watson was the leading Bour-
bon candidate and had the best chance of APP
pointment, there was no movement whatever to
get the party together. Under the crcum-
stances, it will not surprise good many people
II Pinkham, dark horse and Republican, slips in
under the wire unless the Democrats manifest
more of a "get-together'' spirit than they have
shown in the past.

writing through it's columns, feeling
assured some consideration will be

ing a position. Especially as in my
case, when it is known he once wore
the uniform, and is an ex-soldier. Two
weeks have elapsed since stepping
forth from the protection of the flag,
to face the world again as a civilian.

ample opportunity to study the situa-
tion, by actual experience, from the
standpoint of civilian, as well as an
ex-soldier who has worn the uniform
in the hospital corps.

BIDS ARE OPENED FOR
1850 FEET OF CORAL ROAD

At the meeting of the supervisors
this morning, bids for constructing
1850 feet of coral or. Nanakuli gravel
road at Nanakuli, Waianae, were
opened. II. H. Foster and Frederick
Meyer were the contractors bidding
for the work. The former offered to
do the work for $59S1, the latter for
s s3, 400. On motion of Supervisor Nc
Clellan the bids were referred to the
city and county engineer, to be re-
ported on later by the road committee.
The bids for the building of the Wal
ava bridge were not opened. 1t was
announced that a change in the plans
had been agreed upon for the work,
and that the bidders had been notified
of the change and given an opportun-
ity to amend their bids. At the next
meeting of the supervisors, which has
Geen set for July 29, the bids for the
bridge will be opened.

The TARIFF OUTLOOK

Interesting sidelights on the sugar tariff sit
nation are given in the latest issue of Wilett &
Gray's Sugar journal The comment on Presi-
dent Wilson's attitude is especially pertinent
Says the Journal:
Openly sugar has received comparatively lit
tie attention from the Democratic senatorial
caucus since the decision of week ago to abide
by the Underwood schedule. 1t continues, how
ever, to bethe subject of much private discussion
among senator's, and while apparently the duty
advocates are left without hope in the world,''
they continue to give their opponents much con-
Germ Apparently disastrously and finally de-
feated, they are struggling still to find way
out of their difficulties. True, they are given
but little encouragement, but they are showing
their devotion at least.
One of the new devices is an amendment au-
thorizing the continuation after 1916 of half the
Underwood three-year rate in case it is found
then that the estimate of government expendi-
receipts for the same period Some of the sugar
men believe deficit certain under the proposed
tariff and they contend that such conditional
provision as here outlined would be equivalent to
the direct imposition of onehalf of the rates pro-
vided by the house bill for the next three years.
However that may be- they are not in any fair
way to have the theory tested. The subject has
been referred by the caucus to the Democratic
members of the finance committee, a majority of
whom are not disposed to accept it.
The president is the stumbling block. Within
the past few days he has taken an especial stand
against any favors to sugar in addition to those
granted by the house bill and his especial cham
pions in the senate are threatening that if the
sugar men do not cease their endeayors even the
three-year provision will be eliminated No one
belieye that this will be done but the incident in.
dicates the intensity of the feeling on the sugar
schedule No one has undertaken to explain tire
nresident's position, but he is not escaping crit
icism.
So far the additional two votes necessary to
defeat the tariff bill with its free sugar prori-

AMBASSADOR GUTHRIE ENTERTAINED BY THE
MAN PRESIDENT WILSON WOULD NOT See

The committee Of Sons and Daughters of the
American Revolution has asked Mr. George X.
Carter to meet Ambassador Guthrie at the wharf
with his motor and entertain him sightseeing
during the morning, and Mr.. Carter has accept
ed. We trust the Ambassador may have time to
look into the rapid and tremendous shrinkage in
values and credits since the introduction of the
Underwood tariff bill and the presidents insist
anee upon the free sugar clause. 1t is hoped that
no one in the community will be so discourteous
as to show the Ambassador the disappointment
that has been experienced under the Democratic
administration.

COL. BALLS JOB

Speaker Champ Clark's statement that he
never said Wilson would name Col. Claude Il.
Ball of Missouri for the Hawaiian office is hard
ly confirmed by the following Associated Press
dispatch:
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, July 10-Coonel Claude
R. Ball of Montgomery City, Mo-. while here today
received telegram from Speaker Champ Clark
stating that President Wilson would nominate Col.
Ball for attorney general of Hawaii.
Possibly Col. Ball is not to be blamed for
thinking he had the position in his vestpocket.
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1913-07-21
COMPARISONS

Says President Wilson: mo legitimate in
dustry shall suffer through tariff legislation
Says the senate finance committee CAS- a
concession to the cane growers of Louisiana, eX-
listing duties on sugar will be retained until
March, 1914.''
From Washington correspondence it is
learned that the concession will enable the plan
tiers to dispose of the present crops under the
Payne-Aldrch rates instead of the lower ones ar
ranged in the Underwood bill. 1t is held that
this will enable the Louisiana planters to meet
their obligations in bank and save themselves
from utter bankruptcy at the beginnings
Apparently President Wilson's plan for tariff
revision threatened to make a legitimate indus
try in Louisiana suffer. And apparently even
with the concession of the finance committee, le-
Ultimate industry is still threatened.

My dear Editor:
l would appreciate the courtesy
if you will kindly advise your
readers that | am now ready to
make my annual distribution of
vegetable and flower seeds, and
will be pleased to send an assort-
ment to all of those who will write
me for them.
In making request for these
seeds, the applicants should see
that their name and full address is
written plainly, and state whether
they want the garden or the flower
seeds, or some of both. But it
is useless to give a list of the var
ieties of seeds desired, as the De-
partment will not take the time to
pick out special seeds.
In order to insure these requests
reaching me instead of going to
one of the thousand other Taylors
in Washington, parties should ad-
dress their letters or postals as
follows:
