Ti-IE CENTRAL IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE.
Is the Central Committee of Improvement Clubs dc,ad, or only
sleeping. It did a considerable of useful service while active, and the
.need for such a medium of civic development is as great now as ever,
There are several of the district improvement clubs still maintaining
vigor notably the Manoa, the Waialac, the Alewa .and the Kalihi or
ganizations. From such two or three delegates each would constitute
a quite effective central body. There arc many subjects of improve
ment of common importance to all residential sections, and all sections
moreover have an interest in the business section.
As its latest achievement the Central Committee promoted the tene
ment house ordinance to its passage, which' has pfoved to be a highly
useful measure. This, matter it left in the hands of a committee, which
with the board of supervisors did the rest, but the effort apparently
tired the organization out. .At all events there lias been no meeting m
the two years or so since that occasion. Now there is reason to believe
that the tenement house ordinance should be broadened in its provi
sions, as it does not adequately protect residential sections from the
nuisance which tenements in the wrjong place must be called. The
bodv that initiated the 6rdi'imncfr should appropriately be the one to con
sider its amendment. Then there is the question of billboards on which
it would be highly desirable to have Scm'c representative expression of
community opinion. vjuilt suuilxis -i tumiiiuu tivii. imtiwi, .-iiv.n .-

kct building, the cultivation of vacant lots, etc., might well 'be handled
by a central body of duly credentialcd civic improvers.
Captain John Kidwell was the last presiding officer of the organiza
tion, and being home again jiftcr a foreign tour he might be requested
to convene the body for reorganization. If a move in this regard is re
quired, any of the local clubs might set the ball rolling.

quarter of a million dollars' worth of private business property to give
visitors a good view of the utterly utter cosmopolitanism of Honolulu.
Mrs. W. M. Graham ought .to feel some gratification the Star hap

Successful exanjple&io't ?indij&rial training -in Hawaii are so old that
the problem of a good working basis for' extension ,of the jjVork ought
not to be difficult of .solution. It is about ninety years shice Lahaina;
luna was established with manual training a chief feature. Today the
school produces much of its own subsistehce. erects its own buildings,
manufactures implements for itself, prints' a youth's periodical for the
educational department and gfves effective agricultural and mechanical
instruction incidental to such activities. Hilo Boys Boarding school
performs industrial work, in tilling the soil and in vari6us handicrafts,
fitting its pupils for earning their livelihood as skilled workmen, and it
is nearly as ancient an institution as that at Lahaina. There are also
seminaries for girls where useful arts are taught, and which produce
marketable commodities that yield pin money to the pupils and some
thing over for school maintenance. It was frdhi the Mew linglanu
mission schools of this sort here that the late General Armstrong took
the leading ideas he put in practice in founding the Hampton Institute
for Freedmen. t ' ' .
Besides the public and private schools already mentioned, the gov
ernment has had successful .and valuable experience in conducting the
Boys' Industrial School, where horticulture, sugar -caqe, cultivation,
stock raising and fishing, together with mechanical handicraft, make the
, institution not only "largely self-supporting but, from a secular point of
view, reformatory of delinquent youth in the best sense of the word.

THE MAYOR AND THE APPROPRIATION FILL? -
Mayor Fern will hardly do such a foolish thing as vetifhe "appro
priation bill out of "resentment for the withholding of aprirbVal from
some oi ins appointments, it is an ancient privilege oi t,he P.eople in,
parliamentary government inm tucir lcpicbcmauvcs inaycrusc sup
plies to the executive department while wrongs temain unr'eciresed. For
an executive head, however, to. refuse to accept the means of, qonducting
the government by way qf reprisals for refusal of the legislate body
to submit to dictation from him would indeed be revolutionary.
The mayor 'has no wrong to be redressed. His power of appoint
ment of officers is subject to the approval of the supervisors. Their
privilege of approval is as sacred as his prerogative of appointment, and
rightly so. It would be rankly anomalous if the supervisors were ex
pected to make a good record of performance,' if compelled to work
through officials and employes in whom they do not have confidence.
True, they are in this situation to some extent with regard tQ the police
department, but the analogy is not a complete one. Both the sheriff
and the deput)sheriffs are elected by the people, and the law gives the
sheriff certain fjowers akin to those of the mayor. Yet the supervisors are
not without some degree of control over the police department, as they
can refuse to pay the salary of an appointive subordinate of the sheriff
for good cause. Also they command the amount of assistance in men
and money which the sheriff may receive.
If the mayor delays the appropriations from peevish impulse he be
littles himself andhis office. Such conduct will not hurt. the' super
visors personally, but its injurious effect onipublic interests ma'y be
serious. - V '"'
