Territorial Market Management
The Territorial Market comes un
der the head of "those things that
ought to bo but ain't." A good num
ber of people in this town are more
than favorably disposed toward the
Territorial Market. They have gone
out of their way to patronize this
market beeause it is looked upon as
an outlet for the product of the small
farmer. And many people wish to do
what they can to help the so-called
"small man."
Hut the market lacks management:
It is practically speaking in about the
same position as the municipal govern
ment of Honolulu; It has the same
faulty management, and although
great effort may be put forth to over
come this dilllculty, the desired re
sults are not in evidence.
To bo entirely fair one should real
ize that this market has many excep
tional problems to face. It is not
popular with interests whose profits
might possibly bo reduced by a suc
cessful public market. It is working
in a new field. It may not have the
amount of money necessary to do the
work expected.
All sorts of boulders could be dis
covered in the pathway of this insti
tution, but everyone of them is an
other point in proof of the fact that
the market needs management. No
privately controlled business has ever
been built up without a Btruggle;
government controlled business can
not expect an easier pathway.
The quickest means of killing off a
private business is to put a depart
ment in charge of a man or boy who
doesn't know his business, and to all
appearances has never been schooled
in the work to be done. The persons
in control are responsible if the ignor
ance and poor service continues.
Between the board of agriculture
and the food commission it should be
possible to develop a line of action,
business management, that will put
the Territorial Market in the list of
places where the people can secure
service. That will bring the trade and
small farmer will get his share. Star
Bulletin. What It Would Take
To Furnish Cottages
In reference to furnishing teachers'
cottages for the Island of Hawaii, a
dealer has presented figures to indi
cate the cost. This estimate appear
ing on the face of it, would tend to
make it seem rather an expensive un
dertaking, but since the county of
Maui has found it possible to do so,
there can be no sane reason advanced
as to why this county should not do
likewise.
There is little doubt that if prac
tical economy could be put into effect
here, there is many an improvement
'could be added to those that we al
ready have, and that the cost of
furnishing teachers' cottages is one
of these, is also a certainty. What
Maul has done, we could and should
do in this respect, instead of bicker
ing over what it will cost. Hawaii

Portuguese To Make
A Red Cross Drive

WHY INDIVIDUALISM IS AS DEAD AS A SMELT
By George W. Perkins.
"Individualism" is as dead as a smelt.
that is my contention.
In this country we have been living
in an age of the utmost freedom to the
individual. It hus been the individual
istic period.
Iu the early days, when instantaneous
inliivoiiiniiink'iition did not exist, when
education was meagre and science un-
di'velojied,B wliut the individual did was
of comparatively small consequence, for
his deeds did not reach very far and did
not affect many people.
With Intercommunication drawing
the world toK'ther In one centralised
community, the net of the Individual
can alTct't a large number of personal
therefore, thut form of freedom which
la simply another expression for II
cenie to do aa one pleases can no
laager exist.
Society is finding it necessary to take
way much of what has hitherto been
called "freedom of the individual." Id
By judgment thin process la ouly in its
infancy
I 'mil recent years little broad think
ing was given to this problem and dif
ferences were settled ou the basis of
"mit'lit makes rigbt" All lints is rsp
idly (-hauling and we are entering a
period of now industrial relationships.
In my Judgment we are Just now
nterlnK a period of copartnership,
where the fool uaer will he part tool
wner and where capital and labor
will share more equitably In the
profits of the business Is which they
are Jointly engaged
This advance is inevitable because of
our educational system, which teaches
the workingiiiiin to think for himself.
It la Inevitable because strikes and
lockouts cuu never be settled satisfac
torily or permanently by merely rala
Ins; n man's wages.
No mere increase in wages can ever
satisfactorily solve this problem. It ran
be solved only on the basis of profit
sharing.
By profit sharing I do not mean bonus
giving.
Profit sharing enn be done satisfacto
rily only when the business concern makes
public its transactions, so thut the la
borer and the stockholder can know as
much about the business as does the
mannger himself.
In the adjustment of dlfflcnltlea be
tween capital aad labor I as 'confi
dent that opca books will accomplish
much more tbua open shops.
About tin- (.nly giml we have had has
been the almighty dollar. The first,
question asked when g man dies is, I
MlIow much was he wi.rthV" with

Weekly Market Letter
Honolulu, October 20 The price of
Island eggs has remained the same for
the past three weeks. Island poultry
is scarce and the retailers are offer
ing good prices.
Muscovy ducks are scarcer than
they have been for some time past and
the price has advanced two cents.
The first of the new crop of Maui
beans was received last week. Calico
beans selling for $11.00, small whites
for $13.00 and red beans for $9.00 a
h-undred. The Maui farmers expect to
be able to market a large crop of
beans this year.
Large shipments of dried corn are
being received from Maui and Hawaii.
Corn is not sellng very fast. Most of
the people having a small number of
chickens have disposed of them on ac
count of the high price of feed and
the high prices otered for poultry.
This has helped to reduce the demand
for feed and also helped to raise the
price of fresh island eggs. O. B.
LIGHTFOOT, Acting Superintendent.
scar c a umiis'iii us to how much he
did for his community or his country.
But what hus it all amounted to?
On the whele, the Individualistic age
ha not been a success, either for the
ladlvlduul or the community In which
be has lived, or the nation.
We are, beyond question, entering on
a peri.-d where the welfare of the com
munity takes precedence over ths Inter
ests of the individual and where the lib
erty of the individual will be more and
more circumscribed for the benefit of the
community as a whole. (
Our ouly decoration the a .ighty
dollar is receding into the backgiV.oxl.
The msn of exceptional ability, f
more than ordinary talent, will here
after look for his rewards, for his hon
ors, not in one direction but in two:
First and foremost in some public
work accomplished and, secondarily, in
wealth acquired.
One reason why I am strongly for
universal military training is that it
develops in the youth a sense of all
around responsibility to his country, not
only iu time of war but in time of
peace. ft
In rent years we have been hearing
a great deal about government owner

Perfect Fit
"Yes, grandma, I am to be married
during the bright and gladsome yule
tide." "But, my dear," said grandma, earn
estly, "you are very young, no you
feel that you are fitted for married
life?"
"I am being fitted now, grandma,"
explained the prospective bride sweet
ly. "Seventeen gowns!" Louisville
Courier-Journal.
Government ownership of railroads
may be as desirable in this country as it
is in Germany, but we must first bare
public servants who will at least com
somewhere near the standard of Ger
many's public servants in efficiency and
honesty.
Centralization is the order of the day.
The telegraph, the telephone, the auto
mobile and the airship are the causes.
They hare wived out not only old prece
dents and customs, but Stste and na
tional lines as well.
A man bring in Boston who wishes
to talk to a man living in San Fran
cisco simply rings a bell, puts a little
instrument to his ear and proceeds te
talk. There is hardly a miracle in the
Bible more wonderful than this.
The doctrine of "State rights" is be
ing rapidly demolished.
The State, viewed as an individual
with the right to do as it pleases within
itself, without regard for other States,
can no longer he tolerated..
We must therefore take on new na
tionalism. 0
The mighty changes taking place in
Europe tell us with unmistakable voice
that the reconstruction period is at hand.
The man of the future must realize it
He must not look back to the setting but
I forwsrd to the rising sun.
