WlllUm Owon-Hmlth Isapilii In tho
ring. All ntnnd bj-nnd watch him whip
the Ilopubllcan commission around tb
anti-municipal circus.
When the Honolulu 1'rotectUe Aaan.
elation, falls to give tho "Itev " Aiblll
a large quota of free advertising Ita ap
parent motho will bo lottt.
It Is Indeed dlfflcult for an employe
of the Adortlser to do the bidding of
his masters nnd atlll prenorve peraonnl
Independence and self respect.
l)uslne.a men can safely bank on It
that when the Slrrn does nrrho It will
be found sho his made a run that w 111
largely make up for the time lost by
delayed malls
It is about time, tho people heard
from the Independent charter com
mission. There Is time enough to
frame an acceptable chnrter for Ho
nolulu beforo the Legislative session
but there Is no time to waste.
All hall tho Improvement of Thomas
Square May the good work extend not
only to the parks and squares already
existing but to the proposed parks or
plaj grounds that havo been numerous
ly talked of but still remain dormant.
Tho wonder Is that a church rcpn
scntlng the progress and wealth of
Central Union has not long ago had Its
parsonage. It seems hardly probable
that the project to bo discussed this
evening can meet with any opposition
from the members of the church.
Ts It not true that a good portion of
the dlfflcult' In the labor situation la
due to the play fpr advnntago amors
labor agents? While this competition
is going on there Is little prospect of a
satisfactory solution being promptly
brought about. Let cooperation nn'i
unity of action characterize the cau-
vass. and half tho battle will be won,
It has jet to appear that either Mr
Drown, the "goiernmcnt" or the Im
mediate supporters of the questionable
land sales have confidence In the pros
pect of being upheld by tho national
authorities. Tho fact that our local
land office has been put on the defen
sive Is In Itself proof that there arc
serious differences between the Terri
torial and Kederal Interpretation ot
the law.
The trials of n plumber are not u
marker to the ups and downs of tho
plumbing Inspector. Between the pne
tlcal plumber and the engineer, tho
unlverslt) bred sanitary engineer who
has made plumbing a specialty ought
to be a happy medium that will give
satisfaction to all concerned. If ho
doesn't make a success of it, the Health
Board will do well to hire a blacksmith
or a sailor who will make such n botch
of the work that nnybody who knows
a few first principles will be acceptable.
Sunday sacred concerts In a theater
Is n phase ot modern city lite that Is
likely to causoa ripple of worry among
the strict constructionists of Sundty
observance. There If no reason to an
ticipate, however, that Its Influence) will
be In any way derogatory to thp moral
standards of tho community. It will
not draw from the churches hut will
tend to tako off the streets a good por
tion of tho people tho churches do not
reach. First class music by first class
artists cannot fall to exert a beneficial
Influence whether rendered In the
home, the church or the theater.
The prevailing sentiment pervading
all the opposition offered municipal
government by tho Advertiser Is to tax
anything and everything In every way
possible but to not allow tho govern
ment of Honolulu or any other portion
of the Territory escape Into tho bands
of the people. Tho organ even tends
toward the advocacy ot placing tho
sewer tax In the hands ot the Superln
tendent of Public Works Instead of
establishing a general tax for sewn
maintenance. There aro few absolute
monarch!! ot present day who w ould not
view with Jealousy to the power now
vested In the Governor and department
heads of the Territory, Yet we havt
men who stjlo themselves the unlv
true and blue Americans on the beach
peeking to Increase this personal power
Tor tho consideration ot citizens nf
tho same mind as a W Smith th.
Dulletln would cull to their attention
that Hawaii waa annexed two jears
ago. rolloulng that ovtnt, Indepen

house, an end of contract labor nn I
any number of changes that might bn
mentioned. With this nssurnnco In

two jcars doing nothing to prcpiro

oviry other citizen knows enough nf

LII'll HAVING HliRVICU.
There are few people who stop to
consider the magnificent work that Is
done, tho Uvea and property saved, by
the United SUtea Life Saving Service
On occasion of particularly distressing
disasters, men who guard Malnlanl
coasts get full recognition for the dis
play of courage and thoughtlessness for
personal safety which their position de
mands. The dally drudgery of llfo In
the Isolated stations and the dangers
faced during every storm that sweeps
the coasts as a rule pass unnoticed.
The nnnual report of the Oenor.il
Superintendent of the Life Saving Ser
vice furnishes an nrray ot data that U
an eye-opener to tho average lands
man. In no department of govern
ment, do the American people receive
greater flnanchl return on their In
vestment to say nothing of the Ihc.i
saved from nn ocean grave. The sc
vlco maintains 209 stations. 194 on th"
Atlantic. 68 on the Oreat Lakes, 10 on
the I'aclflc and one nt the Kails of the
Ohio, at LoutBvllle, Ky Tho cost 3t
maintenance for the last fiscal year
was !1.B35,93C.
Tho number of disasters In which aid
has been rendered was 304. Thi
amount of property Involved In vessels
nnd cargoes was $9,470,190. Of this
property $7,234,690 waa saved and $2.
235 500 lost. Only 01 vessels wcr
totally lost. The passengers and sail
ors whose lives were Imperilled was
2,055, of whom 2,007 were saved and
48 lost. In addition to these large dis
asters there were 329 casualties to
small craft such as yachts and sill
boats. Only five of tho 781 persons on
board theso boats were lost. The
property Involved was $270,070 of
which $250,770 was saved. Assltan"o
of minor Importance was rendered OS".
vessels In distress nnd 194 vessels were
warned ot the dangers toward which
they were heading. Alter this detail
It seems hardly necessary for tho sil
perlntendcnt to report that no life wai
lost through lack ot prompt nnd faltii
ful effort on tho part ot llfo saving
men.
Although Hawaii Is noted for Its
calm waters and favored coasts, tbcto
are points along the northern dlfM
where life saving stations would ac
complish not a little towards glvin;
greater protection to life nnd property
against disaster. It Is Indeed to be
urged that Congress In Its appropria
tion for the extension of the depart
ment shall not slight this center of Am
erican shipping Interests of Immense
financial value
WHO INTRODUCED SMITH.
Editor Ecnlng nulletln: Permit me
to correct the statement In our col
umns, made on Mr. Gill's authority
tint Mr. Zlegenfuss was city editor of
tho Chronicle when I npplled for tin
position of reporter there and that he
made me known to the managing edi
tor. Mr. Young. The tlmo was October
1S92 and Mr. Hudson was city editor
as he had been for fourteen cars pre
viously. My Introduction to Mr. Young
wns by tho hand of tho Chronicle's
proprietor, Mr. De Young. I have never
been under personal obligations to Mr
Zlegenfuss and If I had been that would
not havo permitted me to withhold
from the Journal that cmplojs me an
legitimate news, of local Interest, con
cerning him. , .
