I OUR ISLAND CONTEMPORARIES j
A Canadian paper announces with
satisfaction that It la American tour
ists who are this yrnr pulling the seen
into Canadian scenery. And the same
American tourist 3 are debarred from
.visiting Hawaii because it is consid
ered unpatriotic to travel on a foreign
liner to our ports. Just why it Is more
unpatriotic to travel on a foreign liner
to an American port than to travel
on a foreign railroad to a foreign tour
ist resort can only be told by those
who have an inside corner on pa
triotism. The ordinary citizen cannot
be expected to understand it. Adver
tiser. It has been said that the workmen's
compensation scheme is the child of
the insurance companies; and as the
Impeachment has never, to our know
ledge, been denied, we must assume
that that Is the fact. Is is, then, a
moct extraordinary and disappointing
thing that the Insurance companies
should fail, in any particular, In meet
ing the legal requirements of tho law.
Garden Island.
On the Other Islands
Kauai Boy Shot.
Richard Rice, the nine-year old son
of Sheriff Rice of Lihue, Kauai, was
wounded in the shoulder last Thurs
day by a shot gun, accidental'.y dis
charged in the hands of Percy Eyd
gate, one of his playmates.
The load of shot did not spread, but
entered the boy's hack bulletwise, and
made a glancing wound just under
the skin. The lad was immediately
taken to the hospital, and put under
the care of Dr. Putman, who reported"
him out of danger on the following
morning.
o
Kamaaina III.
Charles Meinecke, 70 years old, and
one of the best known kamaaina white
residents of Kau, Hawaii, is an ?n
mate of the Queen's hospital, Hono
lulu, Buffering from an attack of heart
disease. Mr. Meinecke was brought
to Honolulu from the Big Island about
10 days ago.
o
Japanese Killing.
Sakuda Moichi, a Japanese killed
one of his countrymen at Kukaiau
plantation, Hawaii, Tuesday afternoon
of last week in a row between tho two,
plunging a butcher knife into his op
ponent's body. The cause of the quar
rel Is not known to the police. The
slayer made no effort to escape, sub
mitting tamely to the officers who ar
rived shortly afterward from the Ho
nokaa station. It is said Moichi avers
he killed in self-defense.
Desperate .Murderer At Large.
The local company of the National
Guard of Hawaii maybe called out to
assist in capturing tho desperate
Spaniard who on Sunday shot and kill
ed a Portuguese at Naalehu, later
shooting at a captain of police before
he disappeared in the cane fields.
The Spaniard is known to have a
rifle and 31 dum-dum cartridges. He
swore he would kill the captain of
police and deputy sheriff if he were
pursued. The police have hopes of
driving him into the open by starva
tion. Isolated homesteaders in the Kau
district are terrified while the Span
iard is at liberty. Pedro, the murder
ed Portuguese, died instantly, the shot
going through his heart. Booze is said
to have been responsible for the flpht
which culminated In the crime.
o
Death Is Exaggerated.
By an error In transmission, George
Ham'.in Fitch, news and literary editor
of the San Francisco Chronicle, whose
death In Berkeley last week was re
ported in dispatch, has been placed
in a category with Mark Twain, wTio
lived to remark with a wry smile that
the published reports of his death lad
been "greatly exaggerated." Mr. Fitch
of the Chronicle is very mucn alive.
The George Fitch who died is the
humorist and author of "At Good Old
Siwash," o Peoria, Illinois.
o
Jealous Lover's Double Crime.
Insane jealousy is supposed to have
prompted a double tragedy of murder
and suicide in Honolulu last Saturday.
Shortly after 9 o'clock in the morn
ing, K. Kamada. a Japanese, fired
three shots at a Japanese woman nam
ed H. Murakami, all of which took
effect. The man then placed The muz
zle of the gun in his mouth and pulled
the trigger. Both died almost ins
tantly. The affair took place in a little store
on Punchbowl street below Halekau
ila, owned by the husband of the mur
dered woman.
o
Associated Charities Get Money.
Formal cognizance was taken yes
terday for the first time by the board
of directors of the Associated jnari
ties of Honolulu of the receipt of a
bequest of $25,000, less the California
inheritance tax or s-uuu, irom me es
tate of the late William G. Irwin. By
vote of the board, the fund was tet
aside as a capital investment, the in-
-come from which, amounting to net
ween eleven and twelve hundred dol
lars annually, will be allocated to the
payment of a manager & fealary.
o
Jeff Not Coming Back?
A rumor is current in Honolulu that
Jeff McCain has cabled to some of his
friends that he will not return to Ha
waii. The district attorney has been
on the coast for several months. He
took his family with him.
Hilf A Task Done.
Valuable work has been done by the
public utilities commission in its in
vestigation of the Lahaina tragedy and
its fixing of responsibility on the men
it deems directly to blame. And still
more valuable is the commission's se
ries of suggestions to avoid accidents
In the future. Whether or not the
Inter-Island believes a'l the sugges
tions feasible, they are made from
the standpoint of public safety and
from no desire to impose an unfair
burden on the company.
The publicity given the investiga
tion now makes up somewhat for the
lateness in getting the probe started.
There is considerable indication that
after nearly ,two years of inertness,
this public body 1b getting Into a vig
orous stride. It will meet with oppo
sitions; its members are not infallible
and may make mistakes, but Its pur
pose deserves public support, and, we
believe, has that support to a very
marked degree.
The Investigation and findings are
on'y half the task. The other half Is
to put Its recommendations into effect.
In this It is fair to expect that the
Inter-Island will cooperate. Star-Bulletin.
