CHECKING LICENSE.

The Government has passed an
Act defining seditious words and
publications, and providing pen
atty for the same. This is very
useful and timely measure, and
should serve as warning to the
individuals who are making a
diligent misuse of their tongues,
in the hope of provoking an up
rising against the Government,
and consequent rioting and blood
shed. The curse of Hawaii has
always been its subsection to the
nuisance of irresponsible, ephem-
eral sheets, which flooded the COM
munity with stream of scandal,
hate and bitterness. The nui-
sance, great enough at any time
cannot be tolerated now. We
believe in the widest liberty of the
press, but not in a wapton and
criminal license, and it is just
these irresponsible scribblers
whose abuse of their privileges
brings the legitimate exercise OF
freedom into disrepute. Freedom
of speech, like other sorts of free.
dom, is something relative, and il
varies with varying conditions
There is one standard for peace
and another for war, one for slug
gish and another for an inhamma
tory population. Every man OF
sense knows that the present is 8
time for guarding the tongue. The
friends of public order appreciate
this fact and are acting according
ly. Others should be made to dc
so.

SHE IS A NOTARY.
Ralph Smiths Widow the First
to Receive a Commission.

Mrs. Smith, widow of Ralph Sid
ney Smith, the well-known jour
nalist, who was shot and killed at
Redwood City about five years
ago, has the distinguished honor
of being the first woman notary
appointed for San Francisco.
The commission in her favor has
been issued by Governor Mark
ham, A. J. Clunie having resigned
his commission in her favor.
After her husbands untimely
death Mrs. Smith had to earn
living for herself and child, and
for some time successfully con-
Quoted the San Mateo Times and
Gazette. She had the satisfaction
of leaving it in a much better con-
dition then when she took charge.
During the protracted litigation,
which resulted in the release of her
husbands slayer, Mrs. Smith form
ed an extended acquaintance with
the legal fraternity, who learned
to thoroughly appreciate her abil-
ity and excellent judgment, and
she has obtained assurances that
lead to the hope of a prosperous
future in her new field.
In the newspaper ranks in this
city Mrs. Smith has a number of
warm friends who have assisted
her in obtaining her commission
as a notary public.
The petition to the Governor
bore the names of most of the lead
ing men in the city, and a separate
petition was signed by Chief JUS
tice Beatty, Justices Garoutte, De
Haven, Paterson, Mcfarland, Har.
rison and Sharpstein of the Su-
preme Court, and by Attorney
General Hart. They signed sep
arate petition on the ground that
it would not be proper to attach
their signatures to a statement
that Ralph Smith was assassin
ated, as the courts had held other
wise.
Ralph Smith was well-known
in this city. During his lifetime
he edited the Saturday Press fol

Mr.. FL. p. Baldwin, accompanied
with several enclosures from Messrs.

cane fields is signed by William T.
Greig, of Hamakua, Hawaii
In a note, the editor states that
Mr.. Wibray j. Thompson, a we'll
known Louisiana planter, intends
visiting these Islands in March for
the purpose of inspecting our sugar

CARPING CRITICS,

The Provisional Government was
entrusted to honorable men, who
are faithfully and efficiently adj
ministering this trust, and in so
doing are avoiding all unnecessary
frictions.
The time had indeed come for
little Hawaii to go out of the
Kingdom" business, when the
head of it repudiated its obliga-
tions. The avowed intention is to
form union with the United
States.
And now arise those who had
helped to make a monarchy unen-
durable and impossible, and coolly
propose that the Government dur
ing this transition period relax it's
vigilance, and give its opponents a
chance again at the gatlings and
rifles! This may be a long suffer-
ing community, easily divided on
most questions and ordinarily
quick to criticize and find fault,
but the danger which we have
passed is too recent, its causes are
too clear and fresh in mind, to
permit petty carping or pickering
now. 1t is not heard, except from
those who helped make the trouble,

For the Worlds Fair.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t having been de-
cided that Hawaii shall make no
exhibit at the Worlds Fair, but
that the Band shall attend and
elbow" for US, how would it do for
some of our wide-awake citizens to
get up a big excursion and have
some of the hundreds of our people
who will visit Chicago next year
attend in one body accompanied
by the Band. We all want to go to
this Exposition, and many will go
many more would go if there was a
special excursion from these ISL
ands.
| would suggest that an organi-
cation be formed for the purpose of
making the necessary arrange
ments for a special steamer to San
Francisco and special train from
San Francisco to Chicago, to take
an excursion party to the Worlds
Fair, the train to be elegantly
decorated, using our tropical
plants the route to be carefully
selected so as to visit as many
large cities as possible, and short
stay made at each place of import
ance. Let the coming of the train
be advertised, and then the Band
to serenade. Let our people spend
the time in seeing and being
seen ;" make a spread, have a
good time; travel with friends in
stead of with strangers, having
Berger and his boys with US, and
not cent extra expense to each
Individual tourist, but a grand send
off for the Islands.
Why not call a public meeting
in the near future, form some kind
of an organization, and elect a
committee to work up the project.

A QUESTION
OF HEALTH

By last steamer our
stock of DR.. Jaeger's I'm
derwear for men has been
replenished.
We are now prepared to
fit any one be he a dude
or heavyweight.
You've been suffering
long enough from that
horrid cold; you've spent
a small fortune for
patent medicines and
doctors advice for that
chronic rheumatism. Let
us prescribe for you,
we know what ails
you. You're wearing I'M
derwear of dead vegetable
fiber, no wonder you're
sick.
Let US advise you to
make a change. You
should wear under gar
ments of pure animal wool.
Nature so intended it, but
you've been running con-
trary to nature until at
last, she has broken down.
Do you wonder at it? Let
us tell you something:
Animal wool is the mate
rial devised by nature for
animal covering and pos
sesses, as the simplest
experiments will prove the
valuable quality of not
attracting or retaining the
noxious mal-odorous mat
ters, which the animal
body exhales. Moreover
being a slow conductor of
heat animal wool does not
chill even when damp.
Some friend will perhaps
tell you that WOODEN under
clothing is too hot for this
climate. Don't be misled.
That all-WoOl clothing
protects the body from
chill is Ineligible to every
one, but it is a common
error to suppose that such
clothing is hot in summer.
Heat is felt to be oppressive
when the natural action
of the pores is hampered
and the exhalation cannot
escape.
If the covering is imper-
vious there is a strong
desire to throw everything
off from the stifed skin;
but the wearer of porous
wooden covering through
which the skin can breathe
is no more oppressed by it
than is a cricketer by his
fannels, which every
athlete knows to be the
coolest, safest, most COM
Portable wear for violent
exercise in hot weather.
1fyou value your health,
don't delay, but encase
your body in garments of
pure animal wool as made
by DR.. Jaeger, and for
sale by
M. McINERNY.

run smoothly this year? Of
course you do, you amt in love
with a hot box and a wheel
that won't go round. Just try
a bottle of Climax Axle Oil and
see how it works. 1t is far
better than castor oil, which is
generally used, and is sold for
just half the price. This oil has
been well tried here and no
one once using it will go back
to castor or axle grease. We
can sell it to you by the bottle,
gallon or 5-gallon tin. If you
still prefer castor oil or axle
grease we have them both in
any quantity.
We have just added 81 doz.
Paint Brushes to our stock, and
can now furnish you any kind
from a cheap white-wash to a
fine all-bristle paint or varnish

We also have a new lot of
Carriage Gloss Paint, and your

iron locks Our new lot has
just been opened.
Gentlemen who shave them
selves know how important it
is to have a good strop, and we
are selling a new style Strop,
which several of our customers
say beats anything ever brought
here. This strop is purchased
by the Commissary-G General,
L. S. q. for use throughout the
entire army of the United
States, and is supplied to the
entire corps of Cadets, at the
Military Academy, West Point.
Try one of these strops and you
will never use any other.
The patent Clothes Rack we
sell is just the thing to use this
wet weather. You can set it
up before the stove in a mo-
ment, dry out the clothes you
got wet in that last shower,
and in another moment you
can fold up your rack and stand
it up behind the door.

been out of some weeks, but
the last steamer brought us a
new lot. also Pointing Trowels,
Disston's Saws, Butchers

We now have a new lot of
steel and brass, long spout Lo-
connective Oilers, the last lot
having all been sold the day
they were received.
A new lot of Binoculars and
Field Glasses, you will find
well worth looking through.
We have them all prices; also

We are almost out of those

We will have a Gil Net on
the next steamer 1000 #. long
by 9 # high. This one is sold
to arrived but we can take your
order for any size net. We
lately sold a large net which
paid for it's entire cost in two
hauls. Who says fishing don't
pay? We have just received
a new lot of fine Linen Gilling
Cord for repairing nets.

Great Aggregation of Floating

INTO THE HARBOR.

Special to the RECoRD-UN1oN.

FORTRESS MONROE Va.), April 1S.-A
strange thing happened to-day. Admiral
Gherardi visited seventeen ships, and a
gun was not fired. Ordinarily, such a
round of visits would have been the oc-
casion for filling this beautiful atmos-
phere with sulphurous smoke, but when
he left his own ship the Admiral ordered
that no salute be fired, and of the foreign
ers he made a request that the same noisy
honor be omitted.
Even with eleven more men-of-war to
arrive, the naval rendezvous has already
assumed proportions which entltle it to
rank as one of the greatest aggregations
of floating batteries which the world has
ever witnessed. Admiral Gherardi said
to-day that the ships participating in the
review represented fully S25, OOO, 900.
They are manned by about 10000 men.
The Admiral expressed pleasure at the
interest displayed by the newspapers in
the rendezvous. He said he supposed the
correspondent would like to know how
much money was wasted in firing salutes,
and, on receiving reply in the affirma-
tive, the Admiral threw aside his dignity
and actually chuckled. "Well," he said,
''as matter of fact, all the powder we
use has been condemned, and it is really
no good for anything else."
The crowd here continues to increase.
1t has long since filled the building at Old
Point, and is now spilling over into the
clearinghouse and country hotels of
the vicinity.
The arrival of the German ships to-
night added to the constantly increasing
excitement. The big Argentine cruiser
was expected to-day, but is probably ly-
ing tonight outside the capes. The Ger
man squadron steamed in the harbor so
late in the afternoon that if the Kaiserin
Augusta had not began to boom cannons
some distance down the roads she would
have slipped into anchorage officially I'M
noticed until o'clock tomorrow morn
ing.
The boat race this morning and base
ball match this afternoon have also given
something to talk about. The first event
was between crews from the Chicago and
Philadelphia. The Chicago crew took
the lead at the start and were never
headed. The baseball event was between
lot of young officers of the Chicago and
picked nine, and the picked nine after a
couple of hours lively chasing retired
vanquished.
Tonight the American officers are
playing the part of hosts. Our senior
Rear-Admiral entertained the command
ing officers, and the junior officers did
the honors to their fellow officers on the
visiting ships.

BEHRING SEA CONTROVERSY.

Carter Continues His Speech in Sup
port of the American Contention.
PARIS, April 1S.-At to-day's sitting of
the Behring Sea Court of Arbitration. j.
c. Carter, of counsel for the United States,
continued his speech in support of the
American contention, and recapitulated
the arguments advanced last week. He
then proceeded to show the jurisdiction
OF the United States had always been
based upon property interest, not sover-
elgn dominion over the sea. Carter quoted
from diplomatic correspondence and the
opinions of English jurists regarding the
ukase issued by Russia in 1921. America
and Great Britain Jointly protested against
this ukase, but Great Britain had with
drawn the protest, because of the Monroe
Doctrine.
Carter spoke length concerning the
mlstranslation and other garbling of Rus
sian documents originally incorporated
in the evidence for the United States.
Great Britain could not truthfully accuse
the United States of bad faith in the mat
ter, as all untrustworthy documents were
Withdrawn. In reading portions of the
correspondence between Blaine and Sails
bury. Carter laid special stress on a GER
tain letter from Blaine which did not rep
resent Behring Sea as mare cluusaIna, but
only claimed absolute rights over a small
portion of it, although the United States
Government considered itself to be
within its rights when it suppressed Pc
lagic sealing.

O'DONOHUE's DEATH.
He Committed Suicide on Account
Financial Troubles.

lie Committed Suicide on Account of
Financial Troubles.
CHICAGO, April 1S.-The remarkable
suicide of the wealthy Horace O'Dono-
hue, which was supposed to be due solely
to sudden insane impulse on hearing
his wife read the account of the death of
Elliott F. SHEPPARD is revealed to-day as
probably the result of large financial en-
barrassments involving a number of
Chicago publishing houses. The failures
last week of II. j. Smith & Co., subscrin-
ton book publishers; of the Melbourne
Publishing Company, and the Nile Smith
Publishing Company, have, it is said, put
different face upon affairs. 1t seems that
they have been doing business with
O'Donohue's house for years, and that he
frequently accommodated them. and
gained such friendship in the business
world that when he wanted accommoda-
ton he found no difficulty getting it; in
fact, his accommodation notes are said To
have reached an aggregate of 100000.
These notes coming due, he could not paw
them, and could not bear to face his
friends and tell them. The worry caused
temporary mental arrangement and he
cut his throat.
1t is believed that his estate will be
found sufficient in time to take care of all
his Indebtedness, but the demands of the
banks upon the indorsers of his accom-
mediation notes are making the best of
them squirm at the present time. He has
real estate valued at 100000, on which
there is an incumbrance of 100000. His
printing and binding plant is worth
$3.50. 600
