Citizens Attention.

These are days of considerable
anxiety and perplexity to. all who
have possessions or other interests
IN the Republic OF Hawaii, and it
is time that our citizens came to q
mutual understanding on several
important issues. The prospects
for Annexation appear at present
vague and iudistinct, and our
destiny cannot be foretold with
certainty. There are those, also,
who still fondly cling to the hope
of return to the old order of
things, and who cannot be per.
suaded otherwise, yet this out
look appears far more hazy than
that of Annexation even to the
most hopeful disciples of the
Monarchy. But, fortunately, in
the midst of all this uncertainty
there is solace in the fact that
Buffalo Beer has came to stay and
that patrons of all sorts and
opinions may equally share the
benefits of its invigorating and
sustaining properties. We are
moreover assured that this favorite
brew will continue to be dispens-
ed as heretofore at the Royal,
Pacific and Cosmopolitan Sa-
looms.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

How the Marine Reporter Fooled the
Ola salt.
While small crowd of report
ers, customs officers, and others
were waiting for an incoming
mail steamer, down on the wharf
the other night, some of the fell
lows began EARNING. Most, of
them had either cigar, a cigar
rette, or a pipe, and were putting
away like small tugboats. One of
the fellows was veteran of the
Hawaiian war, and an inveterate
tobacco chewer. He could spit
inside of a circle six inches wide,
at distance of ten feet, and do it
nine times out of ten. Soon one
of the irrepressibles began the
following:
"One day, when l was hustling

the moon, while the cold prespira-
ton flowed from my pores like
water from a freman's nozzle.

me SILVER and my hair stand up?
Well, you should have been in my
shoes to fully appreciate the stu

less than a crooked bar of iron,
about a yard long, grasped in the
horny hand of the grizzled old
salt, who stood ready to use it on
the poor, innocent, tciendless peu
Gil pusher, without mercy.
'Sayn he bawled at me, do

we have always contended tnat' with
our long line bordering upon the DO
minion of Canada, and our large extent
of sea coast, it was of great import
ance that the State should have con-
stantly available good force OF well
organized and well equipped militia
as a guard against possible emer-
rencies. OF course we do not anticl-
nate any occasion for calling such
force into the field for active service.
We are loath to consider even the re-
mote possibilities of such necessity.
Still it is well to remember that the

ment the strength and efficiency of the

question if so many good marksmen
can be found among the volunteer
forces of any other state in the Union.
We have felt, however, that the
general efficiency of the troops would
he greatly enhanced, and popular inter
est in their work greatly stimulated If
the various companies would have, dur
ing the summer months. open air dress
parades and drills. In this way we be-
lieye that better results can be OBJ
tanned than are possible in the narrow
confines of an armory. The troops
would learn to maintain a good align
ment over uneven surfaces, and to do
creditable work under public inspec-
ton. With such parades and drills
once or twice a week during the early
summer we believe that the troops
would go into camp at the annual mus
ter better equipped than ever before
for the performance, and with a great
er popular interest in their work than
would, otherwise, be possible.

The uu,y Of True sportsmen.

Lovers of good fishing in this part of
the State have enjoyed some fine sport
and made some very creditable catches
of trout in Cobbosseecontee lake the
present spring. In this the people gem
orally have recognized the benefits that
have come from the legal protection
given the brooks running into it. 1t
has been a well known fact that prior
to the passage of the laws providing
for such protection, these brooks We're
the resort of certain few men, who
were willing TO deprive the lake OF all
opportunities to become stocked with
trout, so long as they were able, by I'M
sportsman like methods, to obtain
few large hauls upon their own &C
count. We were recently told OF
man who formerly made it a practice
to go to a certain brook where trout
went to spawn and there secure by
means of spears and dip nets large
number of fish for which he found a
ready market outside the State. 1t
never seemed to occur to him, or to
others engaged in similar work, that by
sucn despicable means the hundreds of
people who would later resort to the
lake for legitimate fishing were being
deprived of the sport that rightfully
belonged to them.
Now every true sportsman owes it to
himself and the community to set the
seal of his vigorous condemnation upon
men who resort to means like this to
secure fish. Today the brooks leading
into the lake are amply protected by
law, and every man who sees or hears
of any infringement of it should make
it his business to inform the officials.
In the interest of good fishing for all
let every man interested in the stock
ing of these beautiful waters with the
king of game fish, constitute him
self an assistant fish warden for
their protection. The officials are
ready to act promptly and vigor-
ously, and any poacher who seeks, by
unlawful means, 10 deprive the public
of the sport on these waters. that
properly belongs to it. can be made to
pay many times over for every fish he

Does Not Relieve the Odium.

The decision of Judge Bradley. Writ
ually throwing the charge of contempt
of court on the part of President Have
meyer of the sugar trust out of court,
does not relieve Havemeyer, the sugar
trust or the speculative senators in
any degree from the odium on account
of the facts and circumstances sur
rounding the original investigation. AT
that time two years ago the following
request was made of Havemeyer by
Senator Allen: / will ask you to pro-
duce full data as to all money contri-
buted by the American Sugar Refining
Company, or any of it's officers, in the
different states in the Union in 1928
for political purposes, to any political
party. whether at a national or State
election.
Havemeyer refused. The judge finds
that in this refusal there is, no con-
tempt of law that the witness could
not be supposed to know the data of
the books. that the summons didn't re-
quire him to bring the books with him.
nor was there proof that he could
have refreshed his memory from the
books had he had them. Accordingly
Havemeyer escapes through a techni-
cal loophole; not by telling the truth
but by successfully concealing it. Can
he or any friend of the sugar monopoly
blame the public for assuming, even
though that assumption may be erro-
neous in some respects. that truth which
is evaded so skilfully to be of damning
nature? Assuredly not. Judge Brad
leys decision simply excuses President
Havemeyer from occupying several
cells with palatial surroundings in the
Washington Jail for month; that's
