Cowboys and cowgirls too are there
And all the FUN Is on.
Great crowds came in on every train
Toward even the day before.
To be there early Tuesday morn.
September. twenty four.
From trail and road which lead into
The city's finest streets.
Came cowboys and cowgirls. also,
And each the other greets.
And prairie schooners oft were seen,
With family inside.
Intending to for next three days
In Roundup Park abide.
From nearby reservations. too
Came many a buck and squaw.
Dressed up in brightest calico
And every gay 'gee-gaw.
All on their way to Pendleton,
To Roundup Park to go.
And for three days just to enjoy
The fifth great annual show.
A crowd Of fifteen thousand cheers
The big Roundup events.
And witness cowboys and cowgirls
Perform their wonderments.
Dressed up In all their gayest clothes
OF every color known,
The weather. too just favored them
old Sol in brightness shown.
And there were many contestants,
Two hundred as we know.
The gretest number in five years,
Was entered for the show.
And there was everything to see,
And every kind OF game.
Bulldogging. and steer-roping feats,
Too many here to name,
But we have given some before,
And written in their praise.
To show how things used to be,
In early western days.
And all is done in honor OF -
Old times in that great land.
And to keep fresh in memory
The famous cowboy band.
Those days Of honest deviltry,
or hustle. and OF pluck,
And when that saying oft was heard,
That hearty Let 'er Buck"
And We must take the time to note,
The Western Ho" parade,
The feature most spectacular,
In all the Roundup made.
Twis glittering and beautiful,
And picturesque, and more,
Is passing took full half an hour,
Ere all OF it was o'er.
md now the Roundup we will give, ,
The finishing Of all. IL

DECISION
A KNOCKOUT TO
CHE.FA GAMBLERS
Judge MonsaTat Imposes Big
Fine on Ticket Seller For

District Judge Monsarrat handed
down a decision in police court today
which is hailed by the police depart
ment as the solution of the problem
of breaking up che-fa gambling in Hon.
olulu. In brief the Judge held that a
man caught selling che-fa tickets can
be prosecuted for assisting and main
taining" che-fa game. -...:" -.
Together with this decision Judge
Monsarrat fined one Ah Lun $3.50 and
costs, an exemplary penalty which,
say the police, will deter many a
would-be gamester from indulging in
the sport of guessing the one right
word in &C.. -. -.
The All Lun case is likely to be a
notable one. for Attorney w. T. Raw
Inns, defending the accused, noted an
appeal to the circuit court Pending
the appeal, All Lun must file a bond
of $275 and was given until o'clock
today to do it.
Deputy City Attorney Charles F..
Chillingworth, who fought hard in the
prosecution, and Captain of Detectives
McDuffie and his staff, who brought
the evidence against the Chinaman,
are much encouraged over the deci-
sion. They say it will now be much

partly for the purpose Of investigating
the federal building site situation, is
now formulating his report. II will
be ready for presentation to the treas

The opinion 10 expressed here that
either Byron n. Newton, assistant sec

tic buildings and grounds, or James A.
Wetmore, executive officer OF the su-
pervising architects office, will visit
Honolulu before, final decision is
reached. .~.".. II. II,
The recommendation made by Mr..
Ruebsam have not been made public.

Special Agent Ruebsam, who is SUI
perintendent of the structural divis-
ion of the supervising architects Of
flee in the treasury department, spent
several weeks in Honolulu few
months ago investigating the avail
able sites for the new milliondollar
federal building. The two sites from
which it is expected choice will be
made are the, Irwin and -Spreckels
sites, and an unofficial runor has it
that Ruebsam's recommendation will
favor the Spreekels site.
The cablegram above indicates that
there is to be further delay in get
ting the federal building started, for
il will take several months for Assist
ant Secretary Newton or Mr.. Wet
more to come to Hawaii and go over
the situation. g -. r. ~

FREE SUGAR LIKELY TO

THAT Is tremendously important, 1

morning, discussing the Associated
Press despatch from Washington
which says that treasury officials a
the national capitol regard as impera

as 1t existed prior to March 1. 1914
The national treasury is so depleted
according to the despatch, that such
action will be necessary, despite the
Democratic free sugar plank.
I'VE had not even hoped for sc
much" continued Judge Ballou, who Is
attorney for the Hawaiian Sugar
Planters. Association, and was in
Washington few months ago. THE
most we had expected was a retention
OF the present reduced duty, but re-
turn to the old duty would assure US
of a stable market even after war pri-
ces have subsidized.
"The full duty before March OF
last year was 1858 cents per pound,
and the Cuban preferential duty,
which governs prices obtained by Ha.
waiian planters, was 1.34S."

authenticity of the report 1T may
be true, and / certainly hope it is, .
said Mr.. Cooke, but IL so 1t must in
dicate that the situation in Washing

The best that we have been led to
hope, from unofficial advices from the
national capital, was the postpone
ment for one year Of the absolute free
sugar basis and a continuation of the
present reduced duty from May 1,
1916, to May /, 1917"

from treasury officials, Is move on

"The sugar item is the largest
source of revenue In the entire tariff
bin, and it is quite natural that the
administration should turn its eyes to
the sugar tariff to cover the treasury
deficit. Not only do they need the
sugar to cover the present deficit, but
they must have 1t to keep the deficit
from dropping another $50,O00,000 an.

law. and then at the outbreak Of the
war with the United States turned to
a military career. ~.
He served throughout that struggle
in a militia company which he helped
organize, and after peace was declared
he made a special study of military
science. He and one other were the
only two in the country who dared
openly oppose the continuation of San

was ordered, but he escaped and
joined Herrera's revolt.

soldier and as q brigadier- general ne

French forces when, taking advantage

1867, captured Mexico City with his
forces. r.. Ill .,.~. b.. -.
