HAWAitAN GAZETTE, , TUESDAY, A rR Ih 25. J 1916 ' SEMI-WEEKLY. THE HAWAIIAN GAZETTE RODERICK 0. MAT1IES0N, EDITOR Mayor Lane's Chance MAYOR lyN It ha tcrn ill arlvise.l, if. a? reported; he will tlecline the invitation Vf the Haj'id Transit directorate itica commission to name a board of suiervisors to assist , . i. new charter for the corporation. Tlie mayor a " reported to have expressed the fear that by taking ' a hand in the discussion and the drawing up of ' form of charter lie will be prejudicing the right of the city to tibject to the completed charter later, if thefe be room for objection. . ; This position in not well taken, while, at the ' same time, it appears to be an acknowledgement that if is not possible to name a committee from .the personnel of, the board of supervisors able to safeguard Jhc city's rights in the preliminary -. stages of the charter drawing. Certainly the last . is not the case. ' , , :'Jt is, or should be, much easier to hae a charter framed which will be acceptable to the city r by ..having a hand in the framing than by taking the completed charter and remaking it. It is much - better that the city fathers help than hinder. It is .much letter that the supervisors he represented -.'.at the coming conferences, and be thus playing" ' , their proper part in the formation of something . , for th benefit of the w hole people, than to hold ' aloof in order to appear as critics later. The framing of a new charter for the Rapid Transit Company is distinctly a public matter and '. it is' a very favorable sign that the desire of the . territorial government and of the corporation is ' ' hat every step shall be taken in the open. No greater evidence of the confidence felt in the moni ' cipal administration could be given than the an Y.nouncemcnt that a committee named by the mayor is wanted to assist in the charter task, and no ." greater mistake coukt be made by Mayor Lane than to refuse to rise to the occasion and take i . advantage of the offered opportunity. A con tinuance of the refusal, if it has actually been . made, will be to stamp the administration as sus ., pjcious of its own ability and afraid to grasp an . 'opportunity t approach an important question man-fashion. The matter of a new charter for the Rapid Transit Company, with the conciliation of the pending litigation which is ail being paid for by 'the public, be it remembered is a matter of the Very highest importance to the community. If it :'.'; can b$ ,dea1t with at this session of congress, it , 'will me the'suendihg' this yearof a great many thousand's of dollars on track extensions and im provements, the bettering of the service in a num ber of .ways, the opening up of new tracts for home '' builders andthe steady employment of more wage farriers. If Mayor Lane will play the part in the se curing of these things for Honolulu, at the same time providing for proper safeguards for the in ' Merests of the public in the years to come, he will i; be doing something that will go far towards mark--, ing; his administration as a uccess. Nothing .bigger has as yet come his way; probably nothing . more important will arise in the city, so far as the actual city is concerned, for years to come. .'If he be wise, he will meet the situation. If he ,' runs away, he will hae et his own standard for ' , others to judge him by. -.' . Unpreparedness REPORTS that have come from, the border state that the unpreparedness of the troops ;', at Columbus, when the bandits led by Villa swoop ;.'ed down upon tlum. wit many times worse, even. than the tales puLli-hcd in the press, and that One of the reas-.ti by a strict censorship was suddenly clapped lnn upon the news from the '. .border was to picxent the public from learning .. exactly what had taken place. The Thirteenth Cavalry at Columbus should have been wideawake , on the occasion of the attack, notice having been given by an American official in Mexico that Villa ' would cross the border and attempt a raid at Columbus tlfat night. The warning was dire . garded. When Villa did strike there was onlv one "officer in camp with the men, the men had fewer than a dozen rounds, of ammunition" each and the ordnance sergeant, in charge of the am- s munition supply, could not be found when the action. parted and the Mexicans were in the town, burning and shooting, and in the camp cutting out the mounts of the troopers. It was three ' quarters of an hour after the Mexicans appeared before the soldiers were fighting back in earnest. ; YYitfl this for a beginning, it is not strange that General Scott is reported this morning to he convinced of the futility of further pursuit ot Villa "under present conditions." . f. . With this for a beginning, too, it is not strange that there have been as many censors as com panies, almost, and that the arrangements pre liminary to the crossing of the border should have been shrouded in as much secrecy as possible. Evi dently those responsible for the lack of prepara tion amongst the border troops did not wish to allow any peeping at the confusion behind the scenes. We are now informed that Carranza will put the Mexican railroads at the disposal of the Amer icans, provided all the troop trains run north. We have this' added insult coming. It is what we have earned through "watchful, waiting" when we should have been hustling and preparing. TUESDAY MORNING APRIL, 25, )916. and the- juhlrc QtV 1 committee from tne not appeal t in tin- iraming g,,d rcasoninR to say that inasmuch as tour ists come in TUB ADVERTISEO SEMI-WEEKLY February Versus June THK various reasons advanced Why we shonld abandon the mid-winterneason for cntr annual ca,rrrh al , ami switch the date. over, into June do us as sound., It does not appear to the winter anyhow we should aban don the attraction that has. undoubtedly, been the means of hringing a large proportion of them. Neither does it apear to us to be good business to. announce that we have so "over-advertised7 ourselves that we cannot handle the business our advertising has brought. (ood business, would be ho increase our facilities to meet the demand, rather than to cut down the demand to meet our facilities. ' One of the most attractive features of the Mid I'acific Carnival is that it is held at a season when the mainland is snowbound and every tourist re sort, except those of the farthest south, is closed. A flora! parade in February is something that mainlanders are ready to grow enthusiastic over, whi!e, suggestion of a trip "to the tropics" in mid-summer would bring mighty little response. We know that Hawaii is a "timber resort, but. as the management of the Great Northern has Minted out. the mainlanders do not know it and it would be the tak of years to educate them. One very urgent reason why we should not consider a June date in preference to the Febru ary one is the fact that such would eliminate the school children of the city from any share in the Carnival program. During June the schools are busy preparing their pupils for the raid-summer tests, and it would be impossible to disrupt the regular studies to prepare for or take part in any carnival features. This point, which Superinten dent of Public Instruction Kinney has brought to the attention of The Advertiser, is one worth giving weight to. Why change? We have done well so far. We have established the date of the Mid-Pacilic Car nival and it is now listed amongst the big events of the year as a recognized national fete. There are more tourists here in the winter than in the summer and there are more Honololans at borne to entertain them. In the -winter Honolulu can give the mainlandcr much that he cannot get at home and much more than can be given in June. Why drop our best asset? . I Preference For Soldiers A feature of the Chamberlain bill tvhieh, says th?. Army and Navy Journal, "should be in corporated in 'any definite Army legislation is the rlause giving the preference for Civil Service josi tions to honorably discharged enlisted men. , The advantages of this proposition must be easi ly apparent. ' It is not only that the prospect of certain employment after retirement will prove a better stimulus to enlistment than an increase of service pay, but that the country will he insured the highest class of men for its employes in the Civil Service grades affected. There is no dis position to criticize the system of examination by which Civil Service posts are now filled, but it is i fact that the weakness of tins system is its failure to allow sufficiently for strength of char acter as an essential element in figuring a man's fitness for a job. Written examinations may de monstrate an applicant's abi'ity to cipher and spell, but no written examination could be half is much a guarantee of probity and worth as ;liscliMrge papers from the United States Army, ." iintei signed "service excellent." As matters stand today, any foreigner may come to this country, -reside the necessary live years, take out his .citizenship papers, pass the prescribed examinations and be assured of a life position. Hut a 'soldier, 4io may have given from two to en or twenty years of the be.st period of his life, steps out none the better for what he has done, unless he -happens to hav e stayed in long enough to obtain a pension. In other countries, the advantages, reciprocal in nature, o" making use of well disciplined dis charged soldiers are generally recognized, and all the Civil Service grades which they are at all fitted to fill arc held oen for them. It must lie remem bered that the Increased chances of winning a commission from the ranks have brought into the Army a much higher class of men lian were for merly available for the recruiting depots. It is' to be doubled if any other body of men measure up to the Army's standards of character, honesty ind zeal. The desirability of utilizing men of this type in the public employment is too manifest to require emphasis. The suggestion that Our Governor take the common people of the Territory into his confi dence regarding his homestead policy appears to have hit somewhere on the deaf side. But that we might be regarded, as fringing upon lose majeste we would suggest that Our Governor turn the other cheek and give us a chance to ask all over again. 'illa and Our Governor have their points in common. V6t instance, just at the present time, their actions speak louder than their words. Also, neither is as7 dead as reported. v Yuan Shih-kai has resigned oftener than Judge Stuart, but he doesn't seem to be disappearing any faster.
