The decision not to bituminize the
street in front of the Young building is
in line with good public policy. Such
pavement increases solar heat through
radiation as may be seen on any hot
day by walking on the naval wharf.
The crowd which went to the wharf
some weeks ago to see General Miles

and as many of the spectators as could
do SO stood on a narrow wooden ledge
which ran alongside the Eva fence.
so as to get their feet off the blistering
asphalt. No votes were made there for
similar street paving. Macadam is the
thing for Honolulu, though it ought to
be Of better grade than the sort the
town has been getting.

COMPETITIVE BANANAS.

There is danger, it is said, of New
Orleans cutting deeply into the banana
trade of Hawaii in the San Francisco
market. From a sample of the south
ern banana sent to a Honolulu dealer,
it appears that the New Orleans job
bers are handling an excellent fruit.
The banana shown here is large, fine
of grain and as sweet as such
traetive than the best island product,
but compared with the general run of
Hawaiian bananas sold on the coast,
it is a dangerous competitor.
There is some reason to think that
much of our export fruit reaches San
Francisco in an immature stage of
growth banana bunch plucked when
the fruit is twe-thirds grown will ripen,
and is eatable, but it is not what it
would have been if left a couple of
weeks longer or even a month longer
to mature. Probably one of the re-
suits Of sharp competition will be to
make our banana shippers more careful
of the fruit they send, and it may also
have the effect of improving the quality
and variety of bananas grown, Some
body might make hit in San Francis
co by supplying the red banana and
the finer grades of plantains. There
are in India and MALAYSIA Vario1ls ha
nanas which are said to be superior to
ours, and plants of these the official
agriculturists here would do well to
import and distribute.

mother $4,000 Thus the Ellises, his
grand nephews and niece. AL young and
able bodied. got $50, 000. and my mother,
his own sister, seventy-seven years OF
age and very feeble, got only $4,000.
But this is not all. My uncle thought
that after giving all this sum of money
he was free to do with his property as
he pleased. He went to the Bishop
Mr. Humphreys thought he had a right
to do, but here again Mr.. Humphreys
had played another trick. He had got
my mother and to sign clear, but he
had not got the Ellises to sign clear,
so the money has been held up in the
bank where my uncle deposited it, and
he is now trying to get it free. But
Mr. Humphreys says that he will keep
it in court as long as my uncle lives
so that he won't get any benefit from
it. He says if the courts here give it
to my uncle he will take it to Wash
ington and it will all be eaten up in
lawyers fees and costs. Mr.. Hum
phreys tries to injure the case by say
ing evil of Mr. Magoon as we'll as US.
But this is the truth. Mr.. Magoon first
took the case for my mother in 1897
and then he was the only lawyer.
Everything he said came out just as he
said he thought it would and he was
afterwards in all the other cases on be-
half of my mother, when she brought
suit in my uncle's name. All he ever
got out of it was about $3.50, while my
uncle paid to Mr.. Humphreys about
$500 personally, and in employing law
yers under his advice about $4,000 more
Besides what he has advised my uncle
to do has caused him to pay out in
costs and lawyers 1 believe nearly s1O,-
600 more.
Now the public can see the difference
between this Mr. Humphreys and Mr..
Magoon. In the last suit in which Mr.
Magoon appeared for my mother with
Mr.. Geo. A. Davis their fee of $4,000
was not paid by my uncle at all.
Now about the $4,000 which was de-
posted with Bishop & Co. Mr.. Magoon
was not trustee and did not want to be
trustee, It was agreed that his o. K.
should be on the checks which my un-
Gle drew merely to see that everything
was all right. My uncle is old and near
checks and might make mistakes, so
it was thought best for his protection
that some one should see that every
check was for the amount that he in

this too long already.

The canteen question resolves itself
to this: If soldiers will drink is it bet
ter to have them do it in camp under
the eyes of their officers or in town un-
der the eyes of the bartender? Nine
out of ten of the higher officers of the
army say that it is better to have them
drink in camp and the lower officers are
all but unanimous the same way. The
w. c. I, U. says that they should not
drink anywhere. but as they are en-
dowed with the ordinary rights of
American citizens. they cannot be pre-
vented from drinking when they get the
chance. 1t is a condition not a theory
which confronts the W. C. T. U. and it
is one which offers a simple choice be-
tween drinking under some safeguards
or drinking under none.

The Sumner case, which is set for this
morning. should draw a large audience
to the court house. Students in the

the ways of some lawyers, ought to find
profitable lessons in this extraordinary
suit. 1t is one well worth watching
from all moral points of view.

The fact that there are over 600 I'M

These iIIieit places have grown up I'M
der a sense of security impaired by
iudees who declared first, that they
would not accept the testimony Of IN
formers and second that raids without
warrants would be adjudged illegal and
that people. whose rights were thus vio-
lated, could lawfully resist arrest by
force. Taken together with the settled
policy of one judge to release all offend
ers on technicalities whom the Attorney
General might prosecute, the encour-
agement for men to go into the I'M
licensed traffic IN liquor has been very
strong. AS result. of the 4Ss whole

all but 1873 are doing an unlawful bust

The abuse grew up in Honolulu
where most of the moonshiners are To-
cated-when the second circuit bench
was wholly run on the Success to Crime
principle. But time has somewhat
changed conditions. Only one-third OF
the court is now unresponsiye to de-
cent public opinion, leaving two-thirds
of it in the hands Of good men. So far,
the new judges have shown a desire to

those who have gone to them with tech
meal excuses have Jared poorly. On
these accounts it would seem to be well
for the police to resume their raids.
All they need to do is to work during
the terms when honest judges are on
the bench and lay off when Success to
Crime is the motto of the court. There

are not particularly impaired by that.

PopuIiSt editors of the state, in his
paper, the Concordia Kansan, last
week, repudiates the action of the
Populist State convention and de-
cIines to follow the fusion leaders in
to the Democratic party. He does
not say what he will do about state
politics, but as far as the Fifth Con-
gressional district is concerned he
says he will support Congressman
Calderhead, the Republican nomin re.

or J. NJ. Doyle, who are mentioned
for the fusion nomination Mr.. Da-
vies says:
'sWe have not heretofore, in a score
of years experience as a newspaper
man, hesitated in giving our honest
conviction about matters of public
concern-it is getting too far toward
the evening of our life to adopt diff
ferent methods in, that regard now.

concerned the Populist party is ire

THE WHEAT WORM.

superintendent j. G. Haney, of the
branch experimental station at Hays,
says:
1.-THE wheat worm, so-called, that
has done much damage in many parts
of the wheat region this summer,
seems to be a mystery to many. The
worms appeared about the time the
wheat began to head, and have appar-
emily remained until the wheat has
gone into stack. The damage by these
worms is done by them crawling up
the stalks and eating out tue kernels.
AS the wheat ripens and the grain
hardens. the worms may only eat off
the chaff, thus allpMfng the grain to
drop out.
These v1ft Or Strictly speaking
they have appeared before and will
doubtless be seen again. Entomolog-
ically clasSed, they are of the order
Lepidoptera of which there are over
5000 species in America, north of
Mexico. The caterpillars above re-
ferred to, belong to the family Noe
tuidae, so-called because the adults
which are commonly called millers are
unusually seen flying about in the
evening after or about dusk. There
are over 1890 species of the family
alone in our country. 1t includes
great many of our most troublesome
caterpillars, such as the army worm,
cabbage worm, corn worm, apple
worm, etc.
GAS there have been several species
observed to attack the wheat. it is
not possible to identify just what one
it is, but they closely resemble, some
of them, the army worm. However,
they all have the same habits. These
worms that are now, or have been
bothering the wheat, when they
have become full grown, burrow into
the ground an inch or so, and prepare
winter quarters. They excavate a
small cell, excrete a cement that
makes this waterproof to some extent
and then make a cocoon, or papery
sack in which they encase themselves.
During the time they spend in this
cocoon, or pupa case, they change
from the caterpillar to miller,
which energies next spring to lay
supply of egges in the wheat, from
which new lot of worms or caterpil-
lars is Matched.
''Some of these species do not get
their full growth the first summer, so
the worm lives over and begins work
early again next spring. The cut
worm is an example of one of these
1.-The life history and an observa-
tiOu of the work of these pests will
doubtless suggest means of combat
ting with them. The wheat that was
drilled in stubble was attacked very
much more than that planted on
plowed land. Flowing the ground
throws the pupas out and breaks
Carefully blowing all the land infect
ed is the most successful method of
combating. The adults usually de-
posit their eggs near where they have
passed the winter, but some of them
may be blown to other fields at some
distance. Another means of lessen
ing the damage done by them is so ro-
tate the crops 1t is very seldom that
the same species of worms will do
damage to two different crops. DIR.

and weeds are Gods warning that we
must not deplete the soil by growing
