1t was not the purpose of this paper,
in Its comments on u part of Wong

mittee which set fire to certain build
ings in Chinatown during Saturdays

derstood him, complained of men who
had committed the crime of arson. If
he meant the citizens delegated to de-
stroy certain structures on the out
skirts of Chinatown to prevent the

to us and in no way creditable to him.
The committee did an obvious duty
which not only protected the white
quarter but such Chinese establish

THE CITIZENS SANITARY COM
MIITEE.

/ The directory of the Citizens SAM
tary Committee, published in this is
sue, giving the description of each dis
trict, the name, headquarters and tele-
phone number of each Inspector, and
the name and apana number of each
Sub-inspector, together with the map
showing the number and location of
each Sanitary District, will answer
innumerable questions that are being
asked every day and save the time and
footsteps of great numbers of citizens.
We advise every reader of the Adj
vertiser to cut out this directory and
map. stick it in a scrapbook or on the
wall, for ready reference as long as
the plague lasts.
Insanitary conditions which come to
the knowledge of citizens should be re-
ported to the Inspector of that district
The map and directory will tell them
to whom and where to go.
Every person desiring to move his
residence or abode must procure a rec
ommendation from the Inspector of his
district, on presentation of which to
the central committee a permit to
change residence is issued.
The directory tells who the Inspect
or is, where he is to be found and what
his telephone number is.
There are numerous other questions
which the directory will serve to an
swer, both at home and abroad. Among
other things, it will demonstrate
abroad the thoroughness with which
the people of Honolulu are graphing
with the plague, and will tend to in
spire confidence in San Francisco and
New York that there will be no Iaisse=
fdire policy pursued here. and that no
precaution, no matter how costly. will
be neglected which may be deemed
necessary to stamp out the disease at
home and prevent its transmission
abroad.
The directory shows that we have
not only an active and fearless Board
of Health but that an aroused and in
telligent public opinion is back of it;
a public opinion that not only thinks
and talks. but acts. With a central
committee of eleven, Inspectors-in-
Chief to the number of forty-one. and
Sub-inspectors to the number of 400,
in round figures, all of whom are un-
paid volunteers from among the lead
ing citizens of every walk of life, who
are making a house-to-house inspec-
ton throughout the city twice a day,

weeks of determined, continuous work
will relegate the plague to the past,

There Is a widespread demand in
England for the appointment of a day
OF national humiliation, fasting and
prayer. One might think there had
been humiliation enough already, but
there can be no exception to the other
proposals. A proper amount of fasting
may clear the British brain which
seems to be somewhat muddled as to
the rights and wrongs of the war,

THE FUTURE CHINATOWx.

The suggestion so often made by the
Advertiser that the site Of the old
Chinatown be used partly as a park and
partly as a white mans business quar-
! ter, and that new and sanitary China
town be constructed somewhere in the
Eva suburbs, is taken up by Mr..
George B. Mcclellan, in a letter pub
lished elsewhere. Mr.. Mcclellan be.
lieves in the park strip idea and he
thinks that a corporation organized to
build a model Chinatown on the Eva
| side of the Nuuanu creek would make
money. That idea is undoubtedly cor
rect. BY quick action sanitary house,
and stores could be built and let and a
nucleus made for an Asiatic quarter in
which the gregarious Chinese and jap
anese population would soon gather.
Delay, as Mr.. Mcclellan points ou-,
might scatter the Asiatics all over Ho-
nolulu and perhaps, in the end. spoil
some of our best residence districts.
The chance to reserve a part of the
burned area to accommodate the
growth of the white commercial section
is one that really ought not to be lost.
1t implies, however, the cooperation

20 put up fine structures there. About
all the Government can do is 70 prevent
building of any kind on the tract until
the Chinese business men are located
elsewhere; and to condemn a part If
the thirty acres for public use. That
would make room for park and also,
when the municipality comes into be-
ing, for a city hall and other public
buildings. In the end we should have
the Waikiki half Of the tract between
Nuuanu street and the stream a credit
able part of the business quarter and
the Eva half a fine pleasure ground,
with the new Chinatown beyond the
stream. Nothing could be more suit
able than that from the point of view
OF the future Honolulu. When this
city reaches 100000 population it must
either have the use of the old China
town area for business or municipal
purposes or II must encroach on the
residence streets. turning them into
commercial avenues. We should rather
see the Asiatics pressed back than the
owners OF Honolulu's most beautiful
and stately homes, the more SO be-
cause the Japanese and Chinese would
be as well off on one side of the NUu-
anu stream as the other.
This latter conclusion is by no means
forced. Recent inquiry shows that the
bulk of the Asiacic retail trade is
with Asiatics and not with whites. So
far as white trade is concerned, rapid
transit could be depended upon to give
it prompt access to the Oriental mer-
chants and If the district is sanitary
such access might be sought oftener
than was the case in the Old China
town. At any rate, and without going
over the whole ground, we can believe
that the Asiatics would have no cause
to complain If put on the Eva side
Of the creek, while the people of the
greater Honolulu Of ten years hence
would have a deal of reason for regret
If they were permitted to reoccupy the
tract now cleared. J

MR.. BRYAN ACCEPTS
The Invitation to Attend the Grand
Army Encampment at Chicago.

Chicago, July 24.-Col. William
Jennings Bryan has accepted an in
Yitation to attend the national en-
campment of the Grand Army in
this city next August. Gen. John
c. Black, chairman of the commit
tee on invitation, received his for
NAL acceptance this afternoon, set
tling question over which there
has been considerable controversy.
Col. Bryan, in his letter to Gen.
Black, says:
when l wrote you on June %,
the convention had not been held
and did not think it wise to make
any promises until the convention
was over, and | had had a chance
to consult the committee in regard
to the date of notification. l am
now in position to accept the invi;
tation and take great pleasure in
doing SO, although it is still impossi-
BILE for me to fix the exact date on
account of the uncertainty as to
my whereabouts just before and
just after the encampment. If it
is necessary to know the date at
once, would suggest August 80, as
that would come nearer harmonic
ing with subsequent date which
have in contemplation.
Thanking you again for the con
sideration shown me by the com
mittee, am very truly yours.

those West Side 9Th Warders who
intended to go to the speaking,
we're disappointed, for along with
the reporter, they kept waiting for
a car until tired nature and disap-

went home. The reporter stayed
however, and when Broad street
was reached it was a quarter to 10
o'clock and this hour was not an
opportune one to enter a place of
public speaking when it was adver-
tised to commence at $50. We
learned from the driver that they
had taken one of the cars from the

this, with zig-zaging and transfer

FITTED FOR THE TASK.

Provided that the Chinese gov
eminent shall deliver Minister Con
ger in safety to Admiral Remey at
Taku, or submit satisfactory proof
that he is alive and will be protect
ed in Pekin, the United States may
with singular fitness act as inter-
mediary between China and the
Powers for a settlement of the ex-
isting crisis.
This government, if it has been
true to the traditional American
policy, is in position to serve in
such a capacity with judicial Impair
tiality. 1t has under such condi
tions no land grabbing designs OF
its own to crafty. 1t is not bound
by an alliance with any other gov
ernment which compels it to assume
factional alignment. For itself 1t
desires nothing in China beyond a
proper recognition of its trade
rights and the guaranteed protec-
tion of American life and property.
1t is friendly to all the interests IN
volved.
There would be something excep-
tlonally gratifying in an American
settlement of the present crisis that
should, without surrendering China
to European rapacity, yet more
comprehensively open her territory
to the worlds trade and to the pro
gress of civilization and serve to in
sure a permanent trarquility.-Re'
