rirehoat Saves Grain cars.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Quick work OF
members of the fireboat Illinois pre-
vented what threatened to be a dis
astrous fire in South Chicago. 1t was
a prairie blaze, starting on the west
bank Of the Calumet river, near 101st
street. The flames swept toward a
string of 420 freight cars in the yards
OF the Belt railroad, all loaded with
wheat and corn. A little north OF the
cars stood three huge grain elevators
of the Calumet Elevator company.
Railroad employees sought to bea,
out the flames at first, but they
swept on. and one of the men turned
in an alarm of fire. The fireboat
Illinois steamed down the river from
the 02d street bridge at full speed and
, cXtinguished the flames.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, az they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Ia
only one way to cure deafness, and that 10
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition OF the mu-
cous lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rumbllng
sound or imperfect hearing, and when II Ia
entirely closed Deafness Is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to Its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever !;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by Catar
rh, which is nothing but an inflamed con.
dltion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrb

NO LABOR MOVE LOGICAL

The report published this morning that Japa-
nese plantation laborers are planning to ask
for raise in wages is of very doubtful authen-
ITCHY and even less logic To put it plainly,
Hawaii is i'm no financial condition for a raise
in plantation wages and the japanese know
that the situation does not warrant any aggres-
sive action on their part.
Sugar has been very low for many months
1t is only within the last few days that the
price has gone up, due to the war situation.
Whether this increase in price is likely TO be
lasting no man can say. For two years plan
tations have been retrenching and for twelve
months the screws of economy have been put on
tight, with free sugar in 1916 staring the pro-
duceIs of this territory in the face.
Moreover, the japanese know as well as the
sugar producers that the plantations of Hawaii
are no longer up against a demand for labor,
The increase in European and Filipino labor
Crs together with the retrenchment OH the
plantations, has resulted for the first time in
Hawaii's modern sugar history in a surplus of
labor. just now that surplus is not apparent,
the pineapple canneries being in the midst of
their busy season, but when that short season
is over, the problem of the unemployed is sure
to arise once more.
With the prevailing low price of sugar for
many months past, the uncertainty of any sta
blity for war-boomed prices and the certainty
Of plenty of labor for the plantations, the Japa-
reese realize quite as well as anyone else that
there is neither reason for an advance in wages
at this time nor prospect for successfully
forcing the issue should the labor agitators
plan strike or any other aggressive act.

N CANDLESS NOT
TO QUIT, SAY
HIS SUPPORTERS

Democrats allied with the l. l. Nc
CaEdless faction rose up in their wrath
today and denied yei1emently that Nc
Candless will withdraw from the race
for nomination on the Democratic tick
ed for delegate to congress.
Since Palmer WOODS advent into
the race, rumors have been current
that McCandIess would withdraw, and
these rumors were given new weight
yesterday when Woods openly dec!ar-
cd that under an agreement made
some time ago, McCandless was to get
out of the race in the event he, Woods,
decided to run Tor the delegateship.
1t was these rImors and Woods as
sertion of such an agreement that were
assailed this morning. =.
A few friends of McCandless arriv-
ed this morning on the Mauna Loa
from Hawaii, where McCandless is
campaigning. They declare they saw
him just before sailing and that he had
told them he had no intention of with.
drawing. On Pauahi street, the Demo
Gratis deny that their candidate ever
made an agreement with Woods,

came forward to declare that there

"McCandless does not propose to
withdraw" he said I'VE have not
heard from him but we know he will

ment Is absurd on the face. of it. -a~

MALICIOUS RUMOR OR The TRUTH Z

In signed statement published in the Star
Bulletin yesterday John III. Fisher says that he
was handed $40 by a police officer under cir
cumstances which give rise to the suspicion in
some quarters that the police officer connived
at keeping Fisher from testifying before the
liquor license commission.
Fishers statements without directly making
the charge, intimates that he believes he was
taken to the windward side of Oahu and kept
there to prevent giving testimony before the IL
cense commission as to the conduct of Waikiki
Inn.
The territorial grand jury has declined to 60
into this case and there seems little disposition
on the part of the license commission to con
duct a further investigation. So far the in
Nestigati0n has been half-hearted, superficial
and wholly unsuccessful in reaching any con-
clnsion.
Either Fisher was gotten away from the city
for purpose or he was not Either he was
handed the $40 as a bride or he was not. Either
an effort was made to protect Waikiki Inn or
1t was not. 7
The way in which the whole matter has been
left unsettled is highly unsatisfactory. If the
reports are wrong, the stories malicious, they
should be stopped The only way to stop them
or to prove them is to get at the truth.
