WEDNESDAY If Senator Korakcr was In' llio hands ot his friends, he will not have much tiouble striking a balance thcet on their value. No alumni association need fear that damage, will result to Its organ ization from anything that promotes the permanent progress of the alma mater. -i ii iaas Is sure of a porma- iif.n pl..ee with the Plornl Parade .,i,d other good things of Honolulu, Whr.t It lacks one year will be more than made up the next. ,. ' Uemember that transportation and tourists assure prosperity for Ha- wall, and tourists will come If the transportation Is provided. Let no transportation company escape, If It makes a proposition worth a trial. . During all the talk on tho steam-; rhlp business thcro was never n word eald of what Increased traffic might result from a reduced rate for the smaller boats. The Matron lino ap pears to be making good on that theory although the reduction Is not an especially heavy one. A correspondent asks If tho II u 1 -1 e 1 1 n has "switched" In ' favor of Taft. He misjudges the situation, All things being equal, the delegates Hawaii sends tovn Natlonnl conven tion should favor the man having nn intimate acquaintance with tho Pa cific and especially the territory of the Pacific under the American Hag. Taft fills this bill particularly well, although Uncle Joe Cannon, If the Btandpattcrs were llkoly to prevail rgalnst tho tariff revisionists, would be a close second. GIVE IT A TPIAL The proposal that Manager Schwerln has made to this commu nity is worth a fair trial. Dried)- put, the I'aclllc Mall man agement proposes to reserve a stated number of first-class rooms on Its ships so that the round-trip pas senger to Honolulu or the stop-over passenger from the Orient shall have first choice. This will be done pro vided tho people of Honolulu or any icsponslble business house will don bent to It or act as a buffer between the company and the local passen gers who might feel they wcro sub ject to discrimination. The point to be gained for this town is, to wipe out the constant complaint, and resultant injury to tourist travel, arising from inability ot transient visitors to get nway from tho Islands on a definite date. As tt stands now, tho passenger nn the Pacific Mali boat can reach the Islands but ho has no assurance when he books for a through boat of a cer tain date that ho can obtain passage Schwerln's plan Is to reserve a def inite number ot rooms to that the visitor may book In San Francisco on a particular return steamer with absolute confidence that ho will e . euro accommodation. , No doubt In turning this question over It will be possible to raise a great variety of arguments about the discrimination against the local pas sengers. It Is easy to nag. Hut It oil comes down to tho fundamental proposition of whether the peoplo ol the Territory of Hawaii want to pro mote tourist trado or not, and wheth er In so doing they nre willing to take n chanco at making sacrifices, That Is all there Is to It. The prevailing Impression In this city Is that tho steamship companies ore none too considerate Wo haven't tlmo to nrgue this out at the present ' Considerate or not, hero Is a defi nite proposition from a definite com pany running definite ships. The only unknown quantity is the atti tude of tho Honolulu public and Its real enthusiasm for tourist business. Tho II u 1 1 o 1 1 n urges the com mercial bodies as representing the public to "make good" and glvo the Schwerln plan a trial, Should It prove n nuisance to Ho. noltilu travelors nnd devoid of ex. pected benefits, Schwerln's plan lsl m-tt n Itiitr thnl ftnnnnt ltn ronan IaiI ' ilUfc C tl IMMh Villi!"'

For tills reason uioio ;s no better, no more opportune, time, to frnme and carry out aggressive plans for luture supply of the labor market and a f'llr balancing of racial condl- tlons The regulations put In force, by the Japanese Government, ns Indlcnt- ed b the latest dispatches, arc most slilct na regards emigrants of tho laboring classes. Whether the fu- turc will bring moro liberal or more restricted Japanese Immigration Is puro conjecture. It Is goad business to prepare for adverse conditions now. If this Is done, the Industries of the Islands will be assured of nn absolutely sta ble labor market. It efforts nro not made to develop other sources of rubor tho Islands will have the constant threat of se rious shortage hanging over them. It Is bad business to wait until the In rlustrlM nro right up against n stone wall beforo stnrttng n labor cam paign. Tho howl ot disaster will go to high heaven, of course, but it will not get n much more sympathetic re sponse than n reminder that Hnwnll had amplo warning of tho'course ot events; why did It. not act tho p-jrt of good business and prepare for eventualities.

Soniq ttmo ngo the. vice picBldcnt of tho University of Cali fornia was down here, nnd In look ing tho school over, with n view to having It placed on tho accredited list, ho stated that tho greatest draw back was the lack of n library. For this reason ho cniuo near icfuslng to recommend that the Honolulu High Sclioc I be placed on tho accredited list. The Stanford niiiu, when he made his examination, took the same view. Professor Scott said tho Idea ot using tho McKlnlcy nicmorlnl fund to securo tt library for tho .High School occurred to him recently and no hud mentioned It to tho various members of the Hoard. As to chang ing tho iianio of the school, theio was plenty of precedent for It.
