WHY AND WHY NOT.

Among a certain class of Legislators
there is great anxiety about an extra
session. OF course the reason for this
is quite plain. An extra session will
give extra pay, and what is far more
to the point extra perquisites, and the
chances for these look better in this
extra session than ever before
In addition TO the Legislators all that
class which has, throughout the ses-
siOns of the Legislature, striven to en-
barrass the Territorial government is
also calling for an extra session, hoping
through that means to embarrass it
still more. As long as the Legislature
is in session the wheels of progress are
at a standstill. Government work has
been held up in all directions An ex-
ira session would hold it up for at least
five weeks longer and it has been held
up quite long enough. When we think
that we have had practically a contin-
nous session of the Legislature from
the middle of February, through March.
April, May, June and July, and are now
asked to add August and part of Sep
TENDER, every one may justly say give
us a rest.
Then there is class of officials which
would have an extra session because
the idea has come to them that they
can and do control the Legislature.
These say 1--WE have got the Legisla-
ture into a proper frame of mind, they
mil ,1S, ,tho
the extra, session right away and we
shall have everything that we want"
These gentlemen are certainly more
sanguine about their influence than
those who know something of the main
springs of Hawaiian politics can be-
The influence may have been there but
it is slowly and surely ebbing away as
such influence must. The chances are
that half through the extra session
these gentlemen would find themselves
dumped and the Legislature, with the
bit in its teeth, tearing off in differ
ent direction to what they desired. 1t
is easy to stampede this Legislature
beginning with Prendergast and end
ing up with the anarchist member from
the fifth, but it is no easy thing to lead
it. Several people, under the rose, have
tried to perform the trick, but they
have burned some of their fingers and
Whitened their hair.
However the extra session is not in
the hands of the Legislators, and it is
well that future Legislators should
learn that fact, it will save complica-
tions in the future. 1t is not in the
hands of that greedy knot of curbstone
politicians who think that by embar-
RAISING the executive there may be
chance for them to get graft on some
kind of a job 1t is not in the hands
of self deceived officials who over value
their own influence. 1t is in the hands
of Acting Governor Cooper, and The
Star has every reason to believe that
the Acting Governors backbone is
firm and that there will be no extra
session, whatever may be said to the
contrary.

The escape of Fujihara from the Hilo
Kinau gets in, if the unexplainable can
be explained. Why the condemned
prisoner was not ironed and kept under
supervision day and night is not now
clear. This is the usual rule in prisons,
and should have been followed out in
Hilo jail. BY his escape Fujihara loses
his chance of reprieve, which was GER
tainly a good one, and should he be re-
captured he will in all probability pay
the full penalty. 1t is not very likely
that he will be recaptured, his fellow
countrymen will help him to hide.

The Legislature has now got through
its final throes and the appropriation
bills in some shape or another. Wheth-
er they may prove satisfactory is quite
another thing. There has been a great
deal of pulling and hauling and then
returning to figures originally given by
the departments to the Governor, to-
gether with additions by various mem
bers, that the bills will be quite study
when they come to be printed.

Upon the question of income tax no
one has made a more thorough study
than Attorney Robertson. He has al
ways been in favor of such tax and
has made many speeches in its favor
both on the floor of the Legislature and

particular bill. he will certainly put up
good argument.

Pillahurx and Laaker.

Harry N. Pillsbury, the American
chess champion, was interviewed re-
Gently with regard to the report from
England that he had challenged Dr.
Lasker to match for the worlds
championship. In reply to the state,
ment that the report had appeared in
Laskers own column in Manchester
paper, Pillsbury said that he had sent
10 formal challenge. There is, how
ever" he added. "a perfect understand
ing between DR.. Lasker and myself in
regard to match In the future He
declined to commit himself any fur
Their, but stated that he expected tc
sail for England about the end of the
year and that the time to be set for the
match would depend entirely on cir
cumstances. The presumption is thai
Pillsbury and Lasker will suit each
others convenience as much as pos
sible and make the time fit In with the
International tournaments to be held
in Europe next year.

American oarsmen are keenly inter-
ested in the proposition which has at
tanned quite some proportions to send
Charles $. Titus. member of the
Union Boat club Of New York, to Hen
ley next year to compete for the Dia-
mond Scuils.
Titus, who originally hailed from
New Orleans. gained prominence last
year when he won the association sin
gle scull race in the regatta Of the Ma
tional Association of Amateur Oars
men, which victory practically declares
him as the champion amateur sculler
Of America.
L. H. Ten Eyck is really the cham
Dion, but he has announced his deter
mination to retire from rowing compe-
tition, thus leaving Titus the next in
order.
Titus ambition for some time has
been to compete for the Diamond Souls,
and when lie won the championship
race last summer the Union Boat club
honored him with a life membership in
the club. Now the club Is DESTROYS OF
doing still more for its champion, and
if it can possibly be accomplished a
general subscription list will be started
in the club for the purpose of raising
funds to defray Titus expenses to Eng
land next summer for the greatest scull
ing event in amateur rowing.

Dried Blood For Calves.

For two years the Kansas expert
ment station has been experimenting
with dried blood for a calf tonic and
food. Several tests have been made.
and the station is convinced that dried
blood Is not only good for weak CALF,
but is an excellent remedy for calf
subject to scours. In feeding drieu
blood a teaspoonful in each feed of
milk Is sufficient. Give this until the
calf is strong or until the scours dis
appear. If calf is very weak, the al
loWance may be increased gradually
to tablespoonful at feed. This dried
blood is mixed with the milk and
should be fed just as soon as mixed.
Dried blood can be obtained from any
of the large packers, but when order
Ing state that the blood is wanted for
feeding purposes.

When to Spread Manure,

Whether or no to spread manure In
winter depends very much upon the
lay Of the land. If 1t is very billy, 80
that the teachings from the manure
VIII run off into ditch or gully, the
manure will probably not be much
more valuable than ordinary soil, says
y. V. Gregory in American AgrIcultur-
list. On level land, however, there is
no better time to haul manure than
during the winter. What does It mat
ter II the fertilizer elements are leach
ed out? The teachings run down into
the soil and are available for plant
food sooner than If manure is spread
IN the fall and Immediately plowed I'M
der. A wideawake, hustling farmer
does not wait for the rush of spring
work to do all his hauling. At that
time his yards should all be cleaned
up in good shape.

Food Receutacles.

All receptacles for food should, as
lar as possible. be kept germ and in.
sect free. Glass, pottery and metallic
wares are therefore preferable to
wood. They should have no Joints or
grooves, as these harbor minute par
ticies OF food. Before placing food in
them they should be thoroughly wash
ed, scalded with boiling water, wiped
dry and then be allowed to cool. Plac.
ing them In the sun when practicable
Tor a couple Of hours will also add to
their purity.

A Point For the HOG,

There Is one point in favor Of the
hog which Is not always placed to it's
credit and that is, unlike the horse, COW
or sheep, 1T produces number of young
at one birth, says a Wisconsin CORE
spondent of Prairie Farmer. This fact
enables those who make hog raising a
specially to rapidly increase such stock
and cheapens the cost of production by
reducing the number Of sources fro.a
which the increase is derived. Taking
this into consideration and also that
the hog will eat anything that may be
produced upon the farm, he is a more
valuable animal than he is credited
with being.

Winton's Auto Record.

AS it is contrary to all athletic prece-
dents to accept intermediate mile times
during a trial as being the figure for
one mile, the Automobile Club Of Amer
lea probably will decline to accept the
record Of Winton, made during the
third mile of his ten mile journey. The
time was 1:06 2-5, while the time for
the first mile was 1:06 As. The dar-
ing Cleveland motorist may receive
general credit for his fastest mile, but
the last mentioned figure will be ac-
cepted as the one mile record.

Taased Ey the Bows

Great interest was taken last night il
the hearing of Eugene Schroeder, ma
chnist employed at rrump Bros. ma
chine shop, who was charged with as
sault and battery on Luther Bacon, al
apprentice. The majority of the EN-
pl,yes OF the shop were interested spec
tators.
1t appeared that Schroeder is suffering
with kidney trouble and worked in the
shop near Il door, which, when open
allowed Il strong draft to blow over his
back and aggravated his illness.
In order to keep the door shut he
placed small steel bar against it.
The apprentice boys We're in the habit
of teasing him because he was good
natured and among other things con-
tinually opened the door.
On Monday afternoon he went to close
the door and place the bar against it
when Bacon caught hold of him.
Schroeder made "A slight strike at
Bacon and accidentally struck him on
til" head badly cutting and brusing him.
Bacon was sent to the Homeopathic
Hospital and last night was brought
from the hospital to the City Hall in the
patrol wagon so as to appear against
Schroeder and after the hearing was
taken back.
Schroeder was fined $40 and costs of
$7s5.
His Sliopmatcs assisted him to raise
his fine and he left the City Hall with
them. Much sympathy was expressed
for him.

VOTERS ARE
DISGUSTED.

All Of yesterday there was consider
able comment in every quarter over the
proportions of the bill for the first
quarter presented the Levy Court Oh
| Tuesday by Sheriff Samuel A. Mcdaniel.
The bill contained many items that were
considered to be unusual. The total of
| the shcrift's claims was over $500, the
large item being the charges for the
lodging of the unusual number of tramps
| who came to Delaware this winter.
The item also charging the county for
the summoning Of witnesses for the
Court of Oyer and Terminer, when there
has been no session of that court, was
commented upon aS being an unfair de-
mand. But this item, however, was
evidently CLERICAL error.
In political quarters lnere is another
uproar over the election Of Charles Il.
Thomas as clerk of the department of
elections. The means by which he was
elected, that is, the combination between
the Republican members, Messrs. Lewis
and Thomas, with Mcssrs. Fairy and
Chaytor, the Democratic members, re-
calls the tactics recently pursued by
Messrs. Lynn and Megginson, Levy
Court Commissioners, in combining with
Mcssrs. Mealey and Armstrong, the
Democratic commissioners. In the de-
partment of elections case Joseph G.
WigSlesworth was intended for the
clerkship. but Mr. Lewis has given it out
that he voted for Mr.. Thomas on mis-
apprehension after having previously
voted for Mr.. Wiggcsworth. Mr..
Thomas was a candidate for president
until, it is understood, he had consulted
with Senator Knox. The mass of the
Republican voters express themselves
as disgusted with these pro-Democratc
actions. The combination with the
Democrats is another instance of de-
ception.
In contrast with the feeling toward the
two Republican members. Mr.. Hut>on's
consistency in voting repeatedly for
Republican is commended. Much praise
for Mr. Hutson was heard on every
hand.
