Japanese agitators nre illscreiUtlng
their own people. Their lausc never
had merit
Tho 1'iibllo Works Department will
nk for largo appropriation, but thb
total amount of work proposed In not
more than the Islands need.,
Honolulu storms never last long!
11 Is nlwavs nafe to bank on tho
lirlKht future of jour own town and
the speed cleat hit; up.ofljp clouds.
The Army mule leads one of the
mhiuice guards of Honolulu's prog
ress. Ma his numbers never crow
less unless the local Kona canary
Is found lo be of. equal value.
Who could have beenjsol's nttqr

of legal employment there would ap
pear to bo no good cause for secrecy.
Tho earth Is taking quite n period
to In-come well settled after the dis
turbances of recent jears, but there
is nothing In fast quite so bad as the
prophets who. find periods, of disaster
favorable to their business.
Wbllo Secretary of Wnr, Mr. Taft
tendered his resignation rat)ipr than
ease his campaign for free trade for
the Philippines. It IS not likely that
he will allow an) thing to sidetrack his
ono deslro, after be becomes President.
Japanese laborers given an oppor
tunity to contribute to a high-wago
fund, will lenrn to their sorrow that
the whole proposition Is a quiet graft
In tbi. Interest of higher wages tor
those who would llvo without work
ing. With European homesteaders dis
tributed throughout the.flelds and in
the mills of the main Industry, an
end will be put to the agitator. The
European will bo nttnehed to the
soil, and no man with a homo will
join In a movement that Jeopardizes
the prosperity of all.
INCENDIARY AGITATION MUST
CEASE. -
Tho law-abldlng Japanese resi
dents of this city and throughout the
Territory will not only refuse sm
pathy to vicious agitators for n gen
eral hold-up of the sugar plantations
that Is proposed In tho so-called hlgh
wnge movement.
They will do more. They should
become nctlve in cnlmlng the Ignor-
nnt workmen whom the agitators
liopo to arouse, and Impressing them
with tho fuct that no possible good,
only Injury nnd an evil reputation
for tho Jnpancse poople, can come
from the movement originated In this
city.
This ngltntlon has not come from
w" the workmen. It Is not an uppeul to
Honolulu for assistance. From the
JC very outset It has been tho invention
nnd e)flsh campaign of a gnng of Ho
nolulu men who must make their liv

with their tynnds nnd labor In the
fields, ,4

Governor Krcnr'St comment, on the
rnpaclty of the people of Hawaii to
deal with their own lands Is the fea
ture of tho Congressional hearing
matter published In this Issue, that
win prouauiy attract the widest at
tention. Senator Foraker put tho question
dliect to tho Governor as to tho nd
viability of taking Hawaii's land'
law constantly to Congress. Why not
havo them passed upon by tho gov.
eminent of Hawaii?
The Governor made the very
prompt answer, that In his. opinion
tho Territory was notsufficiently ad

to'bo that under complete local con

posal of the (public land and possible
trunsfer,lo nllons and speculators.
The Governor may be half right.
but while, the laws are being amend
ed, It would be very proper for the
power of' the executive to be checked.
In .other words, the dangers from
broad executive, discretion arc ns great
as those threatening from the mem
bers of the Legislature passing lands
over to Improper persons and wast'
lug .the substance of the people.
Apparentlv the Governor his seen
a glimmer of new light Blnre he ap
pcared before the committee. A let
ter written at a later date and re
ferred to In the II u 1 1 c 1 1 n of Mon
day announces, that n further amend
ment of the bill has been or will be
offered restricting the executive's
power of cxihnnglng lands. The com
mission whoso consent the Governor
must Becure is to no nnmeu. oy me,
Legislature. This gives the peoplo
at least a veto power over the acts
of llie executive. ,
Taking the history of this Terri
tory by and large, It will not show
that the representatives of the, peo
ple, the Leglslatutbj has made( on,y
greater or more numerous errors than
the executive. Tho public lands
might not be wholly safe In tho hands
of either, but when administered by
both, and fairly well safeguarded, the
record would not be such that need
bring any moro blushes of shame to
the cheek of the citizen than ho has ex
perienced In former jears.
,One thing Is becoming evident In
the career of Governor Frear. Ho
has too much confidence In tho exec
utive nnd not enough in, the. poople.
This Is. a common error of Hnwnl.1,
and one that we need to get away
from If the Territory Is to develop
on traditional American lines.

pleasantly and waited anxiously' for
tho dinner bell to ring. After din
ner we sat on deck a little whllo and
retired early.
We arose enrly the next morning
lo witness tho beautiful scenery. I

approaching the Islnnd of Hawaii,.
On arriving at IIllo we waited, for ou.

Is presumed to be .on tha way to tho
Orient on a very Important mission,
as Iridlcntcd by the following dis
patch: ,
LOS ANGEi.ES, Cnllf., Dec. C
Colonej James Hamilton Lewis, Chi
cago lawyer and politician, Is hero
en route to tho Orient on a secret
mission,, the nature of whlch'hns.not
jet boon disclosed.
According to a Chicago newspaper
ColonelLewls Is bound for China and
Japan on business for the State De,-
nariiueni. iirmcu wun leiiera iium
President lloaeovclt nnd secretary
Boot, tho mission being, of such se
crecy that 'eVch Lewis' private, secre
tary waB In ignorance or lis ueinnx.
, Officials of the Stnto Department
In Washington todry declared that,
whatever tho, Colonel's business Is,
It Is not In any way connoted with
the Government nnd thn tho letters
from tho President and Secretary
Boot may be. merely the uBua) notes
of courtesy Introducing him to Far
Eastern officials.
Colonel Lewis left Chicago tw-p
weel.s ngo, traveling by way of New,
DrlpmiH. Ha will go to San Francis
co from here tomorrow and thence
to tho Orient a few, days later.
"I may say," said Colonel Lowls,
at the Alexandria today, "that I nm,
not engaged on'a mission thntjs nt
this time ot, nhy Immediate Impor
tance to tho' public. It is true that
I have some letters from Secretary
Boot and some others given me bv
direction ot'the president, but they
nre nothing, of nny public Interest,
If something develops later in, con
nection with thU matter which mny
bo of concern to the American peo
plo and It can bo made public, I shall
be glad to give It to the press."
Colonel LcwIb "declined to say to
whom his. letters woro nddressed or
anything regarding thcr Import.
It Is believed, however, tha,t mat-!
ters of very large Importance Having
to deal with the relations between
this country nnd. Japan nnd China
have been entrusted to Colonel Lew

Tho cases of n couple oflllndiis who
were, charged with conducting u gamb

nuts ot various nationalities, wio woiu
charged with plnvlng tho game, nrl-
traded much attention at tho sosstnn
of tho Polite Court this morning. The
plovers wero, for 25 cents, given 22
rings, which they threV ot n cloth on
which wero a number of coins ranging
from five cent pieces to a dollar. If
thoj-Ing completely surrounded a coin
I!,
,t was Blv,en to tho plavor, but, uccoru-
g to tho officers who made tho nr-
rests, tho plavers chances weio ex
cecdlngly slim. ,
Tho question was whether this was
a gnm'o of chance or ono of skill; tho
prosecution taking tho view that tho
former wub tho cnBe, whllo tho defense
Insisted that It was a game ot skill,
Tho quaint babu English Bpokcn by
ond of tho Hindus, :io was tha main
witness for tho defense, was n mlveltv
In the court, and tho way In which he
Juggled iioly-syllablcs was certainly a
wondur. On, cross examination ho was
asked tq try his. skill nt thq game-but
althoughhat throw a dumber of rlngB,
he was. npt successful,
One ot tho men running tho game
claimed that ha had called on ClileT of

sanctioned tho running of tho gime
which bad subsequently been run open
ly on tho Btreet for twenty-thrco days,
before, tho arrest was mado; but the
