Edward I.. Doheny's "revelations"
served tho purpose of bcluddling
tho public miml.
Tho claim he consented to leave i
the Klk Hills oil reserve and con-j
struct a naval oil base at Hawaii for i
patriotic reasons ailer Kear-Admiral j
Kobison had imparled a deep !
military secret abouL an impending j
jvar with Japan, sounds liku an at
tempt to shower the. nation with
lavorable publicity.
It Is stranpo that only tho oil
man was told about tho niililary
secret. Jt is quite as strange that
the government, high officials of
.which knew tho deep secret, did not
think of constructing tho Hawaiian
Jiaval oil base. Thu government
upends much money ou less im
portant defensive things than the
oil base. It not only could have
built thu tanks but could huvo lllled
them wllh oil from its reserves
without first giving away so much
'u of it.
Mr. Dolieny may have been sin
cere In connection with the patri
otic motive. Yet he had Die discom
fiture of discovering that alter he
wSnt to all thu trouble of building
the Hawaiian tanks the deep mili
tary secret weighed so heavily on
the minds of government officials
that for a time they permitted thu
precious tanks to go unused, ami re
ports were they were permitted to
get rusty until the newspaper bojs
with the lleet that visited Hawaii
this spring sent home soiuu edify
ing, or rather, distressing dis
patches, it is understood that since
- then tho tanks have been glvin a
coat of paint; whether or not any
oil has been placed in them evi
dently remains another d"op mili
tary secret.
What the public will nevtr be
able to understand is why such
patriotism by all concerto d re
quired a "loan" of $1 mi, Win, .'i lake

One of

sued figures showing that the
market value of common labor
had already considerably advanced
throughout tho country, and that
the time may soon conic when
common labor will be commanding
wages out of all proportion to those
I paid skilled labor.
The requirement of the law giv
ing to American consuls iu foreign
countries the duty of sifting the
applicants for entry into the United
Hlales appears to bo working well
with ono exception nt least. There
never was much objection to this
feature of tho law as it tended to
eliminate many Journeys to our
shores only to result in journeys
back. We aro now getting 300,000
Immigrants a year nnd when all Is
said on both sides of Iho discussion
about, the law, this total is not very
small. Whether the quotas will be

few years is debatable and rather
doubtful, The law was put through
during a Republican administration
and congressmen of both parties
supported it, Kan-tern congressmen
as a rule oppose the law. but they

lo display daylight saving time on

DRY WAR CHANGKS
ITIOM LAND TO RICA
II is a dry day Indeed when the
newspapers do not carry some news
from the prohibition department of
the federal government. Since Col
onel Andrews got al the head of the
department It has figured in the
news even more than usual, cul
minating in an almost daily story
regarding tho "vast Improvements,"
or Iho "shake-up" under way.
The news that approximately 700
dry agents will lose their jobs, that
the elimination of 400 persons from
the bureau In Washington Itself is
likely, and that 200 general agents
throughout tho country will bo cm
ployed Instead of 300 as at present,
suggests the probability that the
t.rnhihttinn unit has been over.
manned right along. With so much
deadwood In Hie service, small won
der results have been below one
half of ono percent effective.
The elimination of agents on the
land, however, must bo at least
pnWly counterbalanced by tho ad
dition of man-power on the Sea.
The use of the coast guard in ward
ing off and chasing rum runners
must, mean Iho addition of largo
uuiubeis ot men In Ibis part of Die
service. It appears entirely likely
that economics on the dry land sec
tion of the dry department will bo
more than balanced by additions
upon the sea. It requires men to
man these ships and Colonel An
drews insists he requires many
moro lo combat the rum fleets. This
being Die case, it. Is likely that, In
view ot extra costs on the sea. It
is necessary lo cut, down costs on
Die land.

JAP QUESTION IS

"eeling in Australia Said to Be

Honolulu, July 2 P) General

Hoberta of Victoria, Australia, told
the members of the Insttutlo of Pa
cific Relations, which opened hero
yesterday. The meetings wero held
In secret duo to the belief that
finer and frank discussion may bo
had than if they wero public.
T. Z. Koo, China, said the rend-
,1tifitnient of tho affairs of China was
vital to tho peace of tho Pacific.
Hugh Cynn, Korea, said Korea
lacked tho means to start Industry
and establish commercial relations,
which forced the Koreans to emi
grate to Manchuria and Saghallen.
Conrado Hcnitez, Philippines, dis
cussed the independence agitation,
Professor J. 11. Condllffe, New Zea
land university, said "New Zealand's
Immigration reirtriction lost its dls.
tlnct racial tendency and Is now
viewed mainly as expressing the
right to control population. There Is
a strong objection to unrestricted
coolie Immigration but practical ex
elusion is curried out without ap
parent friction by what amounts to
the quota.
While increasing friendship and
cooperation between the English-
speaking people is welcome New
Zealand does not look to the United
States for political or economical
support. Any suggestion of mlnlmiti-
Ing the British connection is unwel
come in New Zealand opinion.
Dr. M. Sawatnagi, Japan, said Ja
pan depended upon continental Asia
for most of her economic and com
merclal relations. Harmful restrlc
(Ions of trade and transportation
should be removed and tho strict
prohibition of Illicit traffic in opium
and other necessary drtifl was need
ed. Tho principle of equality of eco
nomic opportunities Bhould be ex
tended to all parts of the Pacific,
especially In the mandated terrltor
ies, ho said, Japan faces the prob
lem of over-populallon, which cduld
be remedied either by emigration,
industrialization, or more Intensive
cultivation of the land. It was tho
duty of each nation to treat resident
aliens fairly. He qlfoted the recent
legal reforms in Japan, the. right to
land ownership and the abolition of
dual naturalization.
S. II. Roberts, Autsralla, said the
popular term Is "Australia's policy Is
a while Australia," but a.i this gave
quite a wrong orientation of the col
or element the delegation had sub
stituted the term "Immigration pol
icy." After experiments with cheap
labor Australia had formulated a
definite policy providing for tho ex
clusion of any person of any na
tionality If lie could not pass a dic
tation test in any European lan
guage. No specific, country or race
was mentioned. "It is not primarily
a racial basis. The aim is primarily
economic, to maintain the standard
of living. Cheap labor of any kind
will bo excluded."

The purpose of the Madrid con
ference is to determine a joint pro

may end the Moroccan warfare In

tho can on a piece of one-clghth-
Inch mosli screen for two minutes.
Tho department of agriculture has,
after many experiments, determined
tho cut-out weights of many foods
put In water, syrup or brine; and
has determined the amount of solid
material that a properly lllled can
of ft certain size will In general
yield, Where the drained weight
falls below tho figures announced by

that water, brine or syrup has been
substituted for food. In all rases
the Can should be tilled as full as

various Balkan countries, Russia
and Turkey. Persons coming from
Europe, except from these countries,
before 1914 were not required to
have passports, it being an interna

Q. What Is tho coremony of
"beating tho bounds" aa practiced
In England?
A. This Is tho popular expression
In Englund for the periodical sur
veys or perambulation by which
the ancient boundaries of parishes
1 were preserved. Formerly tho cere-
mony took placo annually, mil now
it Is observed less often. The pro
cedure, according to the common
custom, Is In this wise: On Holy
Thursday or Ascension day tho
clergyman of tho parish, the paro
chial officers and other parishioners,
together with tho boys of the parish
school, headed by' their master, go
in procession to tho, parish boundary.
II is their duly lo trace very care
fully every foot of the boundary
even If ladders must bo used In
climbing ever buildings and other
obstruct Ions, it In desirable to have
as many boys as possible. At each
boundary mark a halt Is made and
the boys beat tho mark with peeled
willow wands lo impress its location
ou their memories. Tho beating Is
not confined lo tho above perform
ance of tho boys, but whero It was
desired to preserve evidence ot par
ticular forco the singular expedient
was used of whipping tho boys them
selves on tho spot, or ono of them,
who received a stnted fee for the
permitted castigation out of the
parish fun is it being thought that
the impression mado on the memory
was thus nioro likely to be lasting.
Tho custom Is a, Teutonic Institution
taking Its rlso In the "procession" of
tho ancient mark or township. This
procession was led by the priests.
who performed sacrifices on altars
placed near tho borders. When the
Germans wero converted, the Chris-
tlan priests took the placo of the
pagan, and tho heathen sacrifice was
supplanted by tho mass. The pro
cession is still maintained In Bavaria
as also in Russia. Similar duties
wero performed by the appointed
perambulators In the New England
colonies and by the processloners In
early Virginia.
Q. How long has the honey bee

it traveled into Europe with the
Roman civilization, if not before, and
