In this issue will be found a full
statement of the controversy between
Japan and Hawaii, as furnished by the
Hawaiian Minister of Foreign Affairs
to members of the press. 1t was an
act of special courtesy on the part of
the Government to give this informa-
ton to the public, as so many conflict
ing rumors have been in circulation
difficult to arrive at the truth, or judge
of the merits of the question in dis
pute There are some nice points of
international law involved in the con-
troversy, and other features of it which
must rest on the right of this or any
government to protect the interests of
its people, and in doing so to adopt
such measures as ordinary prudence
would dictate. 1t is one of those cases,
Wnere the r1SnIS OF edcn party Inlay
not have been so clearly stated in the
treaty as to furnish unquestionable
ground for action in the premises.
Taking this view of it the effort of the
Hawaiian Government to submit the
case to arbitration, while not conced-
ing the justice of it's action, was alike
honorable and commendable, and will
most surely be viewed in this light by
all the foreign powers. 1t shows de-
sire to conciliate and adjust the contrO-
yersy on such terms as an impartial
jury may decide.

What a Lone Robber Did.

A single robber last Friday after
noon held up and attempted to rob a
car on the Steilacom electric line at
Tacoma, Wash. AS he got on the
platform he pulled a mask down over
his face, produced revolver and or
dSred Superintendent Dame, of the
motor line, and Motorman Wellman
to a compartment in the rear of the
car. They complied with alacrity.
The robber then ordered the passen-
gers to hold up their hands and COM
menced relieving them of their valu-
ables. Superintendent Dame drew
his gun and fired through the COM
partment door at the robber, who re-
turned the fire. The robber dropped
dead with bullets through his lungs
and heart. Dame was shot in the
arm and Jewett Smith, passenger,
received ball in the leg.
