1 REMEMBER THE ISSUE
i w cll-considei-etl.
The last legislature had a reconl of jjotxl in
coniplishnient in this direction, hut sad exHri-
ence since then has shown t Imt the cost of Imilu-
inr several verv necessarv "sanitation reads"
was much undenstiinat(Hl, and these have had
to wait for the next hfjislatmv to mwt the addi
tional expense. The Oahu loan fund commis
sion, entrusted with the duty of putting through
iniprovymeiits to Frog lane ami School street,
early found that the appropriations are insuffi
cient for the purM)se. The good work of the last
legislating has thus been seriously impaiivtl in
spite of its sincere intentions.
Senator Judd heartily indorses the proiosal
Jtcjmlatwn, nputution. reputation! (. ! wliit-li has latelv received wide. consideration in
hare Imt my reputation! I hare hxt thv im discussion of nublie imnroveiuent: that these
'health roads as he calls them, should he built
at the expense of the benefited property. ITe
proposes an assessment area of sufficient mag
nitude so that practically all the property with
in the iMHindaries of Diamond Head and Fort
Shafter will bear the cost of what is a lenefit
to the entire city, the protection of healtjh.
This plan is a development of the local assess
ment plan for street improvements, such as prac
tically every American municipality now fol
lows. In the local assessment plan the benefited
ami is of course restricted Uv the property im
mediately abutting on the proposed street or
street improvement, and to property so near the
street that its own value is enhanced y te im
provement. The courts have held that property
thus indirectly benefited may be assessed;
Senator Judd's plan is more comprehensive,
and justly so, for it is a matter of benefit to the
entire city. His assessment ayea includes all of.
the city proper, and ?he property taxation 'will
thus Ik? evenly and equitably and widely distrib
uted. How this plan may be combined with the
lesser local assessment plan, is a problem to be
worked out and one that requires much care.
Senator Judd's financial' policy is to authorize
the dry and county to. issue bonds secured by
assessment liens on. the property, whicli is the
generally accepted municipal" plan on . the main
lanuV "'V
There are many details to be worked out, but
there is no. question "that Honolulu must take
tip the problem of cutting up its wet lands if full
protection to health is to be afforded. These
lands alone cannot stand the expense of sanita
tion road-building nor should they, for the
whole city feels the improvement. Only a few
months intervene between now and the next
legislature. t It is work for intelligence to cope
with and for unselfish love of Honolulu to ac
complish, f

THE BAR AND THE COLOR LINE
Whether or not the American Kar association
v as a whole will sustain the action of its execu
tive committee in unseating negro members at
Milwaukee will be a matter of national interest,
for the fight in the bar association has received
national attention. It involves President Taft's
administration and will doubtless .play a part in
the national campaign this fall.
, The fight against the negro members now is
evidently an outgrowth of the bitter factional
strife that arose when President Taft named
William II. Lewis, a colored man, as a deputy
attorney-general. It was general Iv recognized
vthat, in so doing the president was paying a po
litical debt to the colored voters: at least there
has been no refutation of the charge. On the
other hand, Lewis is said to 1k? a man of excep
tional'egal attainments and perfectly well qual
ified to ill a deputyship in the attorney-gener-aFs
office. The mere rumor of his appointment
however, was enough to rouse a storm in the
' ranks of the American Bar association, whose
-; fighting members carried their grievances to
ConTCSs. Taft stood firm, howeveivand Lewis
i'-was given the position. Since then there have

Ilei-e is a gem from Col. Roosevelt's Provi
dence speech :
i
"The men for whom we are making the
fight are not politicians and are not men of
great wealth. TJiey are busily engaged in
their daily toil; they do not appear as
speakers at public meetings; they do not
take prominent parts in political canvasses;
. and they can not contribute large sums of
money for the furtherance of the campaign
in their behalf."
Now compare this with Senator Penrose's
open charges last wek that in 11)04 Standard
