If the majority of our girls vote
as well as tuey look, there will
surely be some voting in the future.
Now that we have our chamber
of commerce, let us lose no time
in planning tha't Floral Parade for
Kauai. There are so many things
awaiting this live wire body that
there is some danger in the desire
to bite off a bigger mouthfull than
can be thoroughly masticated.
Much has bem said of late con
cerning the epidemic of fatal auto
accidents in Honolulu as the re
sult of careless, mad and furious
'joy riders, and truly, it is fright
ful the way this bu:?,i! uf lunatics
are premitted to dash through the
city s crowded streets.
of
point, including an assortment
job faces.
' The new printing plant will oc
cupy a home two story building
constructed on plans for its special
purpose, having a floor space of
nearly five thousand feet. The
plant will handle three papcrs
"The Kauai Semi-Weekly Inde
pendent," a Japanese weekly and
a Filipino weekly, and the job de
partment will be one of the most
complete and up-to-date in the Tet
ritory.Sgj Kauai's new paper will recog
nize no single political faction,
taking under all circumstances,
making competency its motor for
progress, dealing fearlessly and
with constant aim for the upbuild
ing of community interests and
the wellfare of the people in gene
ral and the district of Waimea in
particular. "Squareness" is to be
our motto as it has been during
the time we have been connected
with The Garden Islnad.
.It might not be such a bad idea
if Doctor Olaisyer could manege to
inject some of his hog cholera
serum into a few of Kauai's little
bund wigs, thus rendering them
imnnins from the terrible strain
under which they labour as the
result of the rigid police pressure.
"If I should treat my customers
as you do yours," remarked a local
business man to Ye Editor the
other dav, "I would soon have no
business." Y"e will bet a package
ot peanuts that if tins same gentle
man were to ad pt the frank and
straight forward policy w h i c h

about twenty four hours he would
enjoy the best nights sleep he has
had since since oh, well, about
ten years, at least.
On, no, there is no blind pig on
Aiain street, Koloa! That report
about the forty dollar cut glass
set, the monogrammed gold watch,
and the ruination of two of Koloa's
prominent young business men
the latter two incidents occuring
within the last six months by con
tinued orgies is all nousencical
rot, manufactured in an attempt
to attact the "spotless" character
of Mr. Abby. If you don't think
so inquire of the latter gentleman.
Commenting upon a recent arti
cle appearing in these columns
concerning our worthy County
Attorney, S. K. Kaeo's attitude
in the presentation of cases under
his supervision, a prominent Lihue
citizen said, "yes, we all under
stand the situation quite well, but,
how are we to make matters bet
ter?" He might also have added:
"Plow could we have made matters
worse?" If the county attorney has
a corner on the legal gray matter,
and the intellegent voters of the
island the rest of the substance of
this nature should be sent parcel
post to the Morgue in Honolulu.
The deputy sheriff of Koloa
and a part of his police force has
taken the cue from Waimea de
puty sheriff and launched out to
the Moving Picture Industry, hav
ing leased a local show house from
"Friend" Abby. Sheriff Rice
should see to it that his deputies
either keep out of business asso
ciation of t'-is nature or else turn
in their commission as police offi
cers There can be no objection to
any Deputy Sheriff engaging in a
line of business which can be con
ducted apart from individuals of a
savory reputation, but there is, in
the minds of all who are possessed
with a grain of grumption, con
siderable room forcritizism in such
instances as we have before us in
the "Crowell-Blake Moving Picture
Enterprises."
If it be true that under the pre
sent Liquor Law a wholesale deal
er can supply goods by the barrel
or in any other large quantity to
an individual, and to such and as
often as he maj like, even though
lie may be positive that his custo
mer is a blind pig owner, and such
dealer feeling that i,iing to this
law which he can not but know he
is breaking, he is beyond the pale
of conviction, then it is high time
the law now enforced should be
corked up in a bottle of rum and
set afloat.
A dealer who will sell to a cus
tomer, in such large quantities and
then say he docs not know whether
or not the purchaser conducts a
blind pig, does not only lie but
also knows perfectly well that he
is dishonest. It is a well known
fact that the liquor dealer pays
in proportion to other license hold
ers a verv large license and that
he is therefore entitled to all pos
sible leniency. We believe that in
the case of the county of Kau.iis
this leniency is practically unli
mited, the liquor commissioner,
being men possessed of broad ideas
and opposed to haggling methods.
We also believe that there are
honest men among our liquor deal
ers as well as men of other trades.
The point, however, is this; that if
the agreement necessary to be sign
ed before securing the much covet
ed license, cannot be honesty liv
ed up t o then why should the
license be accepted at all?
The acceptance of the condi
tions under which the license is
granted by those securina same
justifies the commissioners in their
belief that the conditions are satis
factory to all concerned and have
faith in those to whom these licen
ses are granted, fullv believincr
that the conditions imposed can be
faithfully full filled. If. after a
dealer procures his license he finds
that he cannot, with out dishones
ty, meet these conditions it is cer
tainly no credit to him to have their
affrontary to brazinlv state that he
does not know that a customer
who buys booze by the barrel is a
blind pig owner.

Honolulu was one of great excite
ment, having nearly become the
victim of circumstances which for
a short time threatened to leave us
flatly busted in mid pcean, only
the timely warning and our ability
to sleep with one eye open prevent
ed this great disaster.
