That this session has

Of republicans high. in authority,
however will bitterly oppose this
proposed "tarift tinkering," as
they term it, but the antitrust re-

THEATRlcALs.

Tbe Star states that Mr.. Cohen of the,
Orpheum Is in San Francisco trying To
head off the Neill company by threats
of a. musical and bill-posting boycott.
The object seems to be to compel the
Neills, if they come at all, to play at
the Orpheurn, or to force the owners of
the Hawaiian Opera House, as the only
means of getting business, to place that
handsome theater in Mr.. Cohen's hands.
Then we should have a sort of trust
such as Gottlob, Friedlander and Marx
organized In San Francisco, the Joint
lessee of the play-houses being able to
dictate terms and forbid theatrical COM
petition.
The Advertiser trusts that, the Neills
will pay no attention to Mr.. Cohen, as
Stunning that his attitude is correctly
reported. That gentleman, industrious
and out-reaching as he is, neither con-
trolls the orchestral music nor the bill
boards of the town and he has neither
the right nor the power to govern our
theatrical amusements. If the Neills
come they will do as much business
or more than they did in their first en-
gagement; and 1t will make no more
difference In the size of their houses
for Mr.. Cohen is also said to threaten
to produce a rival snow-than the open

Brooks having applied for a writ of ha-

that he is Illegally imprisoned, having
been convicted by a majority verdict,
which, it is alleged, is clearly contrary
to the constitution. The question, Judge
Estee will have to decide is whether or
not convictions by unanimous verdict
became necessary with the passage OF

WIDEN HOTEL STREET.

Since the Rapid Transit company
began running it's cars. interest has
been revived in the proposal, which
long ago took form in a preliminary
legislative Act, for widening Hotel
street, Waikiki of Fort. There is not
much room for vehicles now on that
narrow and crooked throroughfare, the
Rapid Transit line having taken half
the width of the more contracted por-
lions. Nor Is there room enough at
one point for the cars themselves to give
a safe service, the projection of a wall
enclosing part of Haalelea lawn being
such as to threaten the lives of in
cautious passengers. That wall should
be moved back by force of condemna-
tion proceedings and if these are begun
they might as well be continued against
other abutting properties.
All the new buildings, notably the
Elite and the Hotel stables, have con-
formed to the new street line laid down
in the Act referred to. To make the
matter uniform, no structures as we
understand the case, would have to be
torn down, though curb here and
there must be driven in and a front or
side yard abolished The change would
affect the cottage property at the cor
ner of Hotel and Alakea streets to the
extent of pushing the sidewalk back
against the house, but the house itself
would stand pat The net result of the
proposed change would be to give Hotel
street sufficient width for cars, vehicles
and pedestrians alike.
The street, short as It's Waikiki side
is, Is important enough to warrant such
alteration. It is the thoroughfare lead
ing to the principal hotel and it passes
the other caravansary now building.
The Y. NJ. c. A, the Public Library and
the Masonic Temple are on the street;
likewise, as we have said, the new
stables and the Elite building Many
people and vehicles constantly use it,
These circumstances, it seems to us,
would warrant the Board of Public
Works in at once going to court to con-
denim the abutting property.
