the eating rooms. That is the practl-
cal side, but there is always some room
or suite of rooms reserved for the aes-
thetic side of nature. SO a country
should have its parlors, as it were.
In the cities this is reached by the
establishment of parks, open squares
and so forth. But it is sometimes right
to reserve to the state wilder parks,
as it We're. The danger of not reserving
them is clearly shown by the present
anxiety of California over her grove Of
big trees. They are private property,
and as such have been sold to a lumber
man, who, with the practical view, does
not look upon the giants of a primeval
past with any aesthetic eye, but simply
as the possibility of so many feet Of
boards, scantling and so forth. Whether
California will be able to save her trees
is quite problematical.
with the experience of California be-
fore us, and with that of many other
places, we should make some effort to
preserve a few of our own natural
beauties. The suggestion made in the
Maui News that lao Valley, which Is
notable for its beauty, and the main
point of interest on the island to hun
dreds and perhaps thousands of tour
lists, should be reserved for a public
park, and the vegetation allowed free
dom to grow in pristine luxuriance, is
one well worthy of consideration. The
magnificent waterfall at Waipio, Ha-
wall, has been utilized out of existence,
and that was one of the wonders Of the
group, and lao may one day follow It,
The matter is well worth legislative ac-
ton.

AN ENGINE NEEDED.

The fire last night demonstrated,
what has been Frequently urged in these
columns, the necessity of having a fire
engine stationed above the hill, some
where in the vicinity of Judd street
The Walker premises had gone up in
smoke long before the horses could
drag the heavy engines up the hill. The
same was the case when the Renjes
barn was burned down.
If an engine We're situated on Judd
street it would not only be able to reach
any fire above that place, in compare
lively quick time, but it could get to
certain points on Nuuanu, Pauoa and
Liliha very much more quickly than
than engines from town, for it's course
would be down hill
OF course it will be urged that last
night there vas no water. But that
does not cut any figure in the argument.
We do not always have such a dry
spell as we are now having, and ex-
cept for present abnormal conditions,
there would be plenty of water. But if
the engines could have commanded I'M
limited water they could have done
nothing to save the house, because it is
impossible to drag the heavy engines
up the hill quickly enough to be on the
around in time.
There is a great deal of valuable
property in the upper part of the val.
ley and houses are going up on the
nat above Wyllie street in considerable
numbers. The stationing of an engine
on Judd street, would moreover in
crease, rather than diminish the dis
lance power Of the fire department 1t
is wiser to diffuse than to concentrate

There seems to be little doubt that
number of people who have been down
here in the last year or so are carry
dTEg concealed weapons. The court yes
Ferday duly consigned such an individ-
lial to prison for four months for carry
ing a kind of slungshot. 1t matters
very little what a man carries, whether
"A slungshot, a revolver or a knife, he
ought to be promptly run in as soon as
the police learn that there is such
man about. OF course, a man so run
in expresses the greatest surprise at
being arrested, but a man does not
carry around weapons unless he means
ultimately to use them, and there are
very few men who, after a short resi-
4lence here, do not know that is against
the law to have such weapons.
There are cities in the United States
where like stringent laws prevail. 1t
was not so many months ago in Wash
lngton that a man bought a pistol in a
store. He showed it to a casual friend
on the street, who informed, and he
was promptly hauled up, fined, and
the weapon cOnfiscated. There is moth
ing countrified about war on the I'M
authorized possession of weapons. 1t
Is good sound policy in the interests of
good citizenship to have weapons only
in authorized hands.
In a civilized community man who
carries a weapon is a menace to law
abiding citizens. In a community of
TOughs the man who does not carry a
weapon and behaves himself, is ninety.

The man who was sentenced to foui
months imprisonment because he hac

be hoped that Judge Wilcox will sen.
tence all men of the same class, who
may be brought before him to a similar
penalty. A little hard work upon the
roads will do such gentry a powerful
amount of good The man who carries
such weapon is not very far removed
from thug, and it may be very safely
be said he is a brute and a coward.

There seems to be some kind of an
idea in Japan that the japanese, resi-
dent here, have been Disseminated
against during the quarantine and the
Chinatown fire. This is very erron-
eOus impression and cannot possibly
have emanated from the Japanese Con-
sulate, where the facts are well known
The statement made in a Japanese YER
nacular paper, that there is bad feel
ing between the foreign and Japanese
people" is entirely erroneous.
That there has been loss, during the
period that plague has been upon us,
to number of Japanese is true, but
there has been as great and greater,
directly to Hawaiians, Chinese and
Portuguese, and indirectly upon many
American and European firms. 1t has
been common calamity which all have
had to bear, and are bearing nobly.
There has been no such discrimina-
ton as the japanese vernacular press
claims. The ladies of all nationalities
have worked as earnestly upon clothes
for Japanese, as they have done Tor
any other race. The charitable have
contributed to funds which were dis
tributed to Japanese who needed them
as impartially as they were to all other
nationahties. One canont imagine that
these complaints can come from official
sources, but they must be the result Of
irresponsible statements. Nevertheless
they have stirred up the empire, and
also the official circle there
