Butcher Knife, Evidence
In Jap Slashing Affair,
Stolen From Jury Room
"Knife, knife, wIio'b got the butch
er knife?" Is the chorus and main
substanco of a icry Interesting little
song which the Attorney General's
Department Is singing tlieao days.
And thereto a very Interesting little
tale Is attached, tho significance of
which may be very well Judged when
It Is heard.
Lum Shcong, n humble Chinaman
who washed dishes, cleaned pots and
pans, and did other such menial Jobs
nut at the Monna Hotel, found, to his
discomfort, somo tlnio nco that he
and Klmura, a Japanese omplpycd In
similar service at the beach hostelry,
lould not exactly agree on matters
of general kitchen Import.
Taunts followed, words were ex
changed, and, finally, when Klmura
decided that he could no longer stand

"I have said before and I repeat now, that I am a
straight-ticket man. I always was and I hope that I al
ways will be. I have no sympathy with the split-ticket
crowd; neither have I any sympathy for those who would
have this Territory turned over for government to a com
mission. I would consider myself a traiter to the country
if I had any sympathy for those who advocate snch a sys
tem. "I hope for the success of the ticket. Even if that
ticket is not filled with angel 3 1 believe in the support of the
ticket from top to bottom and let the split-ticketers go else
where." A. 0. H. Robertson.

County Convention. Will
Be Held Saturday
This Week
Although It has been generally un
derstood that the Republican County
Convention had been postponed from
next Saturday until the following
Tuesday, Secretary Buffandeau of
the County Committee today made
the official statement that in spile
of the fact that Saturday will be He-
gat a Day the convention will be held
on that date, and that whoever gave
out the other date ' was absolutely
mistaken. This will cause the poll
ttclans'who thought that" they had a
few days' respite, to hurry with their
plans, a thing which Is most neces
sary, aa things at present are In 11

MARAMA HAS LARQE
MAIL FROM FLEET
Accumulation of Weeks
, Goes Coastward By
Alameda
The Canadian-Australian steamer
Marama. Captain Glbb, arrived this
morning, from the Colonies, with Just
381 bags of mall from the boys of the
fleet to bo sent home by tho Alameda.
This large tinnsfer mill is tho result
of a good many weeks of literary ef
forts on tho part of the jackles and
theti officers, and will make 'the ar
rival, of tho Alameda at San Francisco
a momentous occasion.
The Marama has 180 tons of cargo
of a general sort for this port She
will finish discharging and pull away
from Bishop's wharf at 5 o'clock this
afternoon, bound for Vancouver and
Victoria.
She has a largo list of passengers,
and will carry out about a dozen from
this port, Including John Fleming and
bis bride.
Among the passengers coming
through are two dozen rugby players
of tho British Rugby Union, who hao
boon, playing, through Australia and
New Zealand. They are notlceablo by
reason of red hatbands and blue blaz
ers ot a cut which would be a new
thing for the American collego lad.
This team will play In Vancouver be
fore proceeding on home to London.
Though rugby has become tho game
In the California universities now,
theso husky players -n 111 probably not
go that far south on this trip, it Is
believed.

A movoment Is on foot among tho
men prominently interested in the
pineapple Industry to form a' selling
association on the lines of tho Sugar
Factors' Association, and It Is prob
able that In the near futuro this aim
will be accomplished.'
"It Is really too early to say much
about this thing," said 'one ot the
plncapplo magnates when asked about
the matter this afternoon. "There are
a number of us who are Interested In
forming a selling organization like
that of tho Sugar Factors' Associa
tion, tho purpose being to systematic
ally exploit tho market, instead ot ais
poslng of tho crop In a haphazard man
ner as Is being done, at present. It is
plain that there are many advantages
to be gained by bucIi an organization;
Wo can systematize tho selling, aud
the advertising ot our goods, and will
be able to standardize the grades as
well as derive many other benefits
We are only discussing the prelimin
aries at present, but I feel fairly cer
tain that all tho big companies will
Join the organization."
