TiiTt Explains Opposition to Reciprocity.
(San Francisco Call.)
PRESIDENT Taft realizes that if reciprocity with Canada is to be
enacted by Congress it will be due only to the force of public
sentiment compelling the Senate to act. Th"at body is still
dominated by the special interests, which will employ every form af
political chicanery to kill the measure. An instance in point is the
amendment of the treaty of agreement offered by Senator Root.' Root
knows better than anybody that the agreement must be enacted as it
was made or not at all. The proposition to amend it is merely a plan
to kill the measure.
In his address on Saturday Mr. Taft made clear the nature of the in
terests that are financing the campaign against reciprocity. These are
chiefly the paper trust and the lumber trust, whose activities in "put
ting Lorimer over" have been the subject of extensive publicity.
These interests have been compelled to admit in a public way that they
hired a firm of lobbyists to appear before Committees of Congress as
ostensible representatives of the farming interests. The real farmers
know that their business will not be affected in any respect otherwise
than favorably by improved trade relations with Canada. The only
competing crops produced by Canada are cereals, whose price is
determined in a foreign market under free competition and without any
sort of protection.
On the other hand, Canada is a large consumer of agricultural pro
ducts of the United States, such as the canned, dried and fresh fruits
of California, the cotton seed oil of the south and, in fact, an endless
variety of food products that can not be grown in that climate. Mr.
Taft describes the opposition in these words:
"From what source does the opposition proceed? In the first place,
it comes from two classes of the business interests those who own and
control the lumber supply of the United States and those who are en
gaged in the manufacture of print paper and of whom the largest manu
facturers own much of the spruce wood supply of the United States,
from which the print paper is made; and the second class opposed to
the treaty are those who claim to represent the farmers and agricultural
interests of the country."
These two classes might fitly be reduced to one. The real farmers
may be eliminated altogether, because in fact their interests will be
advantaged greatly by increasing the demand for many of their most
profitable products.
The wail has gone up that the Maui automobile men held up the
excursionists last. Monday. It may be possible that some were over
charged, but that is bound to happen anywhere. We have actually
known people to have been overcharged in Honolulu. Yet this is no
reason to cry down everything and everybody in Honolulu. Neither
is it necessary to threaten against the Maui Racing Association because
an auto driver thought he saw a chance to make a little extra money.
We have absolute knowledge this vvas not the rule among the automo
bile men, as the most of them are always satisfied with a legitimate
charge at all times.
It is not very edifying for the pupils that these squabbles continue
in the public schools. These things are becoming all too common.
There must be a cause; and we would submit that this cause can and
should be unearthed no matter who suffers, for the good of the service.
The brand of whitewash dished up recently by the Board of Education,
continues to leave a bad taste in . the mouth of a large number of
people.
Bullion, Raggles and Me.
(By John P. Meakin.)
OLD Bullion rode by in his auto;
I rode in a trolley car;
But Raggles he walked on his journey,
Though it led to a place afar.
The fact was very evident,
As you can plainly see,
That I was better than Raggles
And Bullion was better than me.
Old Bullion lived in his palace;
My cottage was rather neat;
But Raggles he slept in a hovel
When he wasn't kicked out in the street.
It was plain that God, who made us,
Intended that we should be,
I a little better than Raggles
And Bullion better than me.
At least this was so until Raggles
Struck gold in a mine that he found,
When his millions eclipsed old Bullion's,
And he went to the top with a bound.
Then the world, which is wise in such matters,
Took never an hour to agree
That Raggles was better than Bullion,
And both of them better than me.
Maui, Hawaii, as second-class matter.
The Fourth on Maui.
Everything points towards the
most successful race meet ever held
by the Racing Association. The
track is now in "fine condition.
Many new horses are at the track
and more will arrive next week. A
notable acquisition last week was
the mare Mary Winklcfield from
Honolulu, and she is in fine condi
tion. Maui is going tatter than
ever, and will take a lot of beating
when he starts on the Fourth. A
large number of promising fillies
are at the track, and there is no
doubt some genuine speed burners
are among the bunch.
That sterling performer Coppit is
in fine condition and will be ready
to run for a king's ransom when
the gate goes up for the big race.
Assurances have been received
that a boat will surely come up from
Honolulu, though it has not yet
been decided which lxmt it will be.

KAMEHAMEHA EXCURSION TO LANAI.
At 5 a. rn. on Kamehameha Day,
Postmaster Arthur Wall, Messrs.
J. E. and J. K, Kennedy, H. Bruss,
and Mr. Sandstead, embarked on a
60 foot gasoline boat, and cruised
around for a few hours, while try
ing their luck at fishing. The
weather conditions were exceptional
ly fine. About 9 o'clock they land'
ed on Lanai, and remained there
until 2 p. m. They visited the Gay
family, and were generously enter
tained. The boat also was well
supplied with viands. In the near
future this party and other guests
will visit Maneli ranch, on the fur
side of Lanai, and will probably ex
tend the trip to Molokai.
Shot at Cocoanut Island.
The presence of the Enterprise in
this port makes timely the publica
tion of a complaint which was made
to this paper just after the vessel
had left Hilo on her last voyage
It is stated that during her former
stay here an experiment was made
with the ship's signal cannon, a
rather formidable piece of ordnance
which carries a projectile described
as similar to an overgrown window
weight. The cannon was aimed
straight at the Cocoanut Island
beach. In explanation of this weird
maneuver it was later stated by an
officer of the steamer that they
"wanted to see where it struck."
The projectile did strike the island,
thanks to the excellent marksman
ship of the gallant sailors. Inci
dentally it struck very close to some
children who were playing on the
beach, and a scar on the rock bears
mute witness of the force with
which the missile struck. It is to
be hoped that if such a damnable
practice is repeated, the authorities
will find a way to punish those
responsible therefor which will
make the punishment recently in
flicted for the carrying of opium
look like the merest slap on the
wrist. Hilo Tribune-
Card ot Thands.
Mrs. Clarence M. Roberts wishes to
express her appreciation to her friends
for their many kindnesses in her recent
bereavement.
