operators anticipate that there will eventu-

to stimulate the price of the product. A

lutely no place to go, and there have
been cases where these unfortunates
have almost died in the street.
Some time ago an effort was under
way to establish a home for these un-
fortunates and proceeded so far that a
committee was appointed and set about
selecting a site. But it never got any
further then one or two rides and a, dis
agreement as to locality. The general
public was interested and one party
promised $500 when ever a commence
ment should be made.
The matter is particularly emphaslz-
ed at the present moment by the case
of Doc" Tanner, an engineer former
ly working for the Inter-Island Compa-
ny. His span of life is short, and he has
ample means for his support but there
is no institution for him to go to, and
his landlord would not have him in his
house But there are many cases where
the people are destitute. In Tanners
case, the difficulty can be overcome, in
cases of restitution it is almost impos-
sible to overcome them. In the reor-
ganized Honolulu which we all hope TO
see, there should be a place for con-
and incurables. 1t will be a
sanitary as well as a humane measure.

THE CHEF JUSTICE.

The resignation of Chief Justice Judd
just at this juncture is sad. He has been
so connected with the principal ev-
ents on the Islands for over a quarter
of century, and just at the point of
great and momentous changes, he has
to leave the work which he had almost
rounded out and ask to retire before
the final change comes.
Judge Judd has had, during his ca
rec, a bountiful crop of enemies, as all
men of pronounced views in high places
always have. But he has a grand record
in his integrity. He has kept up the
honorable traditions of the Hawaiian
bar and has stamped himself as the
worthy successor of Lee, Allen and
Harris. Under his rule the judicial err
mine has been unsmirched and will be
handed on to his successor as pure as
when he received it. This is a record
which his family must take pride in,
but it is a record of much wider signi-
ficance. The territory can take pride In
it and does so. 1t is something to have
a Judge of strict integrity, and that the
Chief Justice Judd is not an old man.
but his conscientious work has told up
on him. He has given the best years Of
his life and the best of his brain to his
country, for the Judge is a son of the
soil, and has proved himself a worthy
scion of a worthy stock. He has worked
in the various positions which he has
occupied in the state in most con-
scientious manner, and the sad break
down in his health is due to the ASST
duty with which he has attended to
his duty
The bar will undoubtedly feel the
loss of A. F. Judd. Many of them had
received kindly encouragement from
him. This was especially the case with
the Hawaiian members. The Cher
Justice understood the natives as few
do now, and was always anxious to
further their advancement. Many an
Hawaiian in good position today has
to thank the good word of the Chief
Justice not only for the place he has,
but for the kindly advice which has
guided him in the exercise of his duty.
Probably Chief Justice Judd has done
more in this direction than any of his
predecessors, and certainly more than
any likely successor.
Judge Judd lays his honors down un-
furnished. He has borne the heat and
burden of many a hard day, and has
helped in guiding the ship of state
through many a shoal and quicksahd.
That his health should give way is not
to be wondered at, for there has many
times been a grievous strain upon him.
But the strain has been courageously
borne, and all will agree, on his retire
ment that he was honest and conscien-
tious in the performance of his duty
and was genial and pleasant in his prI-
vate life. The latter may he long live
to enjoy.

A HOME FOR 1NcuRARLEs.

The Star has repeatedly called atten-
ton to the unhappy condition of many
afflicted with consumption or other IN
durable disease, who have no place to
go to. Every now and again a case com
es up and shows the necessity of hav-
ing spch a home or hospital, but the
matter is ever put aside to a more con-
venifnt season and nothing is done.
All that the poor consumptive asks
is a place TO die in, and we do not grant
him that privilege. The hospitals can-
not take incurable patients, and they
are right to refuse consumptlves be-
cause the disease is contagious and can
be spread by the expectorations of the
patient. For the same reason lodging
house keepers object to have such peo-
pie in their houses. There is thus abso-
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-01-06

The Star has supplied it's readers with
accounts of the quarantine camps
which show how the work is being car
ried on, and what care has been taken
both for the health and comfort of that
portion of the population that has suf-
fered the misfortune of being included
in the infected district. For these peo-
pie much sympathy must be felt. They
have lost their houses, and many of
them their means of livelihood. After
the quarantine is over many of them
will find it difficult to start up again,
and upon some basis or other, some
means of assistance to these people
must be divised. The Advertiser is quite
right in its contention that they should
not bear the whole loss which has fall
len upon them.

The burning down of Chinatown is a
drastic but a necessary measure. Not
only should the whole of the shacks be
destroyed as soon as provision can be
made for the removal of the inhabi-
tants to different quarters, but the
houses which remain should be thor
Oughly disinfected before the quaran-
tine is lifted. The ground upon which
the shacks have been standing so long
is impregnated with disease germs and
should be chemically treated before any
attempt to rebuild upon it is allowed.
The ruling of the Board of Health that
no rebuilding is to take place until the
Board gives permission will enable such
a course to be thoroughly carried out.

impossibility Of adequately running two
departments, both of which exacted
much time and the obligation, at this
crisis, of devoting full time to health
matters caused Mr.. Cooper to turn to
the law and leave the public health 10
less trammeled hands.
DR.. Wood is a man of energy. strong
will and of remarkable GOODNESS and
nerve. Under the most trying circum-
stances he would never lose his head
Added to these natural attributes he
has great professional skill and has
many years of experience in official
work connected with the Board of
Health. Under his able direction the
campaign against the plague will be
carried on with vigor and the commun-
ity may be assured that his efforts viii
be crowned with success.
In dealing with such an enemy as we
have in the plague the skill to direct
the efforts of the volunteers and others
to the best advantage is essen
tial. The head must be careful
that every one does his share of the
work properly and does not interfere
with or cross his cO-workers, thus caus-
ing loss of power at a time when it is
necessary to have every portion of time
and power tell.
The cool decision of President Wood
under such circumstances will be in
valuable. The Board has further been
strengthened by the addition of F. NJ.
Hatch. He is also a man of decision and
has expressed his views upon the duties
of the Board of Health very fully. He
realizes that the plague must be eraGi-
Gated no matter what the cost may be.
The question of cost, in point of fact,
must not be considered by the Board.
If the $25O,0OO voted by the Council of
State is not sufficient it must be sup
plemented. The task is not only to
clear the city Of plague but to put it
into such sanitary condition that we
shall have no more plague. This can
and must be done.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-01-06

When Chinatown has been thorough
~ dealt with there is some good cleans
ing work to be done elsewhere. The
block at the corner of King and Fort
to which attention was called a few
days ago, should be declared too insan-
itary for habitation. The shacks behind
are in a filthy and rotten condition,
and even those which face the street
are a disgrace to any town. The prop
erty belongs to wealthy absentee own
ers who should be forced to keep their
buildings in proper sanitary condition.
Such pest breeders should be swept
away. Now is the time to carry out a
thorough reform.
