Circuit Judge Whitney after a trip
to the Hoys' Industrial School at Waia
lee comments that he "fount! the plant
in excellent condition." That comment
is perfectly corrert. As n "plant,"
as an industrial under taking, the in
stitution is well-conducted, judged by
the outward results of cleanliness,
growing crops, output of products,
etc. Judged by the results of the boys
who are now in durance there, the
conclusions cannot but be different.
The question is whether the territory'
desires the school to turn out excel
lent taro, cane, vegetables and dairy
products, or boys w-ho are better
characters for their experiences there.

What sort of a state of affairs must
exist where a man who was tuspected
of being short in his accounts is al
lowed to go on year after year with
out being visited by nn auditor? The
latest affair on Maui shows that there
was, to say the least, a very lax man
ner of auditing going on as regards
the circuit court of Wailuku. Hawaii

When plates, cups and other dining

ger of contagion. Consumption is
worse than leprosy in many people's
estimation, and yet nothing like the

Cupidity May Defeat Aim of Sugar
Men.
Selfish cupidity often robs Individ
uals of their reasonable and attain
able desires. This truism seems a
pertinent one of which to remind the
sugar men, who now that they have
a fair chance of having the present
sugar tariff of twenty dollars a ton re
tained by congress are starting into
work for the old rayne-Aldrich sche
dule. Isn't this a ease of where a hn'.f
a loaf would be better than none? The
half loaf, as at present seasoned with
high war prices, is a pretty rich one.
It may be possible under the pressure
of need of tho government for addi
tional revenue to get congress to re
tain the present tariff rate, with very
little opposition from the free trade
exponents. Hut, isn't it possible, once
the sugar men show their cupidity by
asking for a schedule which only two
years ago was declared too high that
the free trade clement will combine
with those opposed to more than one
cent, a pound protection and defeat the
hope and reasonable request for the
retention of the present tariff? Hilo
Tribune

ernment employes by garnishee pro
cess in 1915 have amounted to $10,

ceived here. Schmidt was serving 12

Punahou To Have Military Training.
After a warm debate last Monday
night, the trustees of Punahou Aca
demy practically decided to Inaugu

pelled to take their boys from the
school if it went into effect. Among
these were the Revs. A. A. Ebersole
aand David Carey Peters. Judge Dole

ing, as did a number of others.

Poor Showing For Homesteads On
Hawaii.
Figures recently compiled from pub
lic land office records show that al
most all of the homesteaders in the
Kahuku, Kamaee, and Waikaumalo
homestead tracts, on the Island of Ha

lands. Of a total of 34 original owners
of the 1901 acres represented in theBe
tracts, only two still hold and use
their land, and these two use it as
pasture. Twenty-five lots are under
lease to the Hakalau plantation and
fourteen are leased to Japanese who
are growing cane upon it for the Ha
kalau mill.

While the trustees of the estate,
Curtis P. Iaukea. William O. Smith
and Samuel M. Damon, will oppose the
action brought by Kuhio and be rep
resented in court by their own coun
sel, Queen Liliuokalani has retained
special counsel to appear for her. For
mer Judge Perry, of the Supreme
Court, having been retained in that
capacity.

Letterhead
Adds distinction or "class" to your correspondence.
It isn't only the business firm or professional man
who now raises his correspondence above the
mediocre through aid of the printer's art.
Just your name and address in neat lettering at top
or corner of the sheet will add an individual touch
that at once raises your letter above the dead level
of "ordinary".
The additional cost per letter is trifling.
But of course much depends on the printing.
