time since the first outbreak could the
wholesale district of the town be con-
sidered infected nor can it be so con-
sidered at the present time. II this
district is to be considered infected it
will be difficult to explain why the
plague has not run rampant through
out the residence sections where goods
from the mercantile houses have been
constantly used
The Marine Hospital Service, 1t will
be noted, lays as much stress upon
the dangers of over stringency as it
does on lax methods. This is brought
out by Surgeon Carriers reference to
sanitary smuggling" and also his
statement, ito require the disinfec-
ton of large amount Of merchandise,
knowing that 80 per cent OF 1t does
not need it, will generally result in not
taking the requisite pains with the 10
per cent which does and in which the
danger lies" 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. Loebenstein complained that
freight on the unpermitted list at the
time he was here had been landed on
the island of Hawaii. 1t had come
from Honolulu notwithstanding the
sharp watch that was being kept. 1t is
also a question whether the wholesale
disinfection required Of all goods leav-
ing this port will not result in more
serious dangers to outside districts
than would be accomplished by making
a larger free list.
Certainly no complaint can be made
by the authorities Of the spirit in which
the mercantile houses generally have
accepted the strict regulations which
have been made. How long the spo-
radio cases will continue is impossible
to say, but certain it is that mercantile
houses are suffering hardships that
should be relieved as promptly as pos
sible.

MR.. HUMPHREYS FOR JUDGE.

That A. S. Humphreys should receive
the support Of majority of the MEM
bers Of the Hawaiian Bar for the posi-
ton of associate justice of the Su-
preme Bench Is natural response to
the legal capacity and sterling per-
sonal qualities which Mr.. Humphreys
career In these Islands has evidenced
Coming to the Islands unknown and
unheralded Mr. Humphreys has. by
strict attention to duty and high de-
gree Of integrity gained the highest
esteem of the community generally and
established legal reputation that
quickly placed him among the leaders
OF the bar.
Mr.. Humphreys couples with his le-
gal. and judicial ability an indepen-
dence and vigor Of character typically
American which the Bulletin believes
is much needed in the judicial as we'll
as the executive branches of the fu-
ture Territory. He Is well versed in
the law and the foundation principles
OF American government and his APP
pointment to the bench will add char
acter, dignity and ability to our local
Judiciary

DR.. Woods selection of Dr. Pratt as
sanitary building inspector is particu-
iarly satisfactory since 1t puts most
important work In the hands Of man
who by professional training and
business experience has had
special training for the duties imposed
upon him. This is the second man
whom President Wood has selected for
permanent work from the ranks Of the
Iieutenants marshaled by Supt. Nc
Weigh who has ever been right hand
man in the work of the Health Board.
That DR.. Pratt and Mr.. Towse have
proved their special fitness for the po-
sition to which they have been ap-
pointed is a tribute to the generalship
and good judgment of Mr.. McVeigh as
an assistant in the executive work Of
the Board.

Rescued From Drowning.

Shortly after IL o'clock today ia
panese was seen to jump from the
James Makee and strike out for the
shore. When about fifty feet from the
steamer 1t was seen by those on shore,
who were watching him, that he was
a very poor swimmer, this became
more evident when he suddenly threw
up his arms and yelled for help.
F. r. Harvey, who was standing on
the lnter-Island wharf, seeing the dis
tress of the man jumped into boat
and went to his assistance. He ar
rived none too soon as the man was
sinking and was barely caught In time
and pulled into the boat.
When taken ashore he explained that
he was sick on board the Makee and
did not wish to stay there. His clothes
having been sent ashore he dressed and
was allowed to depart.

Mayor Of Wichita last year on Sal

nent was only 100 votes. During his
present canvass he expects to visit

poets to get the support of both Demo.

stands fair show of success. He is q
business man of some prominence In

MERCHANDISE QUARANTINE.

The general principles expounded in
the pamphlet issued by the Treasury
Department relative to the shipment of
goods from districts infected with
yellow fever have a direct bearing on
the local commercial situation as eff
fected by the plague. While it Is not
possible to make direct and detailed
comparison between an epidemic
of yellow fever and bubonic plague,
the conditions that brought about the
conclusions of the Marine Hospital
Service relative to merchandise and
the objects to be accomplished are
much the same.
In past years an outbreak of yellow
fever in the Southern States has been
accompanied by the establishment of
absolute quarantine, often supported
by shot guns, and complete embargo
on all trade from the infected districts
whether the disease was epidemic or
not This condition of affairs was
ruinous to business interests and not
in keeping with common sense DELHI,

Various conferences were held with the
result that regulations for the ship

OF the absolute quarantine. At the re,

New THINGS

FOR THE BOYS. Have you ever stop.
ped to think what a difference there Is In
the makes of boys clothlngl Many suits
are bought because the price Is low. It is
often the price that governs the purchaser,
and not the quality or the substantial
makes. This theory seems to be based on
the Idea that any kind of a suit Is good
enough for boy, as he will soon wear II
out. That Is not good economy, for If you
would pay a little more, and consider quail
lty and make, you would have a suit for
the boy that would always look we'll and
Outwear two suits of the inferior grades.
To buy the best Is money In pocket; to
buy the poorest Is moaey wasted. We
make speciality to keep the best at popu.
