A CRUX.

The Board of Health is undoubtedly
doing it's best in order to get proper
statistics, but it is a long way from
reaching its own ideal, or the ideal
which every one, who cares to keep a
careful eye upon the progress of the
Territory, wishes to keep up to. The
greatest praise must be given to the
Board of Health officials for what they
have done. They have at last sue
ceeded in getting some kind of an ac-
count of births and deaths in the outer
districts. According to the figures
published there were in all the Islands
2l6 deaths, and 231 births, in the month
Of November, and 28S deaths and III
births in the month of December.
However good the effort may be to
get at statistics, it is very evident that
the system is far from perfect. Upon
the question of births there can be no
argument. 1t rests with the Board to
apply the legal penalty in a few cases
IN every district, and it will get proper
returns until such a step is taken it
will get no returns worth the paper
they are written on. In publishing
such statistics The Star feels very
much embarrassed. It knows thew are
Incorrect, yet it knows they are given
in good faith. 1t publishes and if
begs leave to disbelieve.
But if birth statistics are unreliable.
and they undoubtedly are the outside
death statistics are open to suspicion.
In November according to the report
there were "A deaths in Honolulu. In
December there We're 90 deaths in Ho-
nolulu. Honolulu contains with IT'S
floating population just about one
fourth of the people on the Islands.
Basing conjectures upon the death
rate in Honolulu there should have
been 296 or Whereabouts in the Terri
tory instead Of PIG as reported for No
vember, and on the same reasoning
there should have been $50 deaths re-
ported in December instead of 288.
There is evidently a crux here for the
Board Of Health. Either the city OF

Honolulu is extraordinarily unhealthy
which 90 ls not or the figures are faulty
which they most evidently are. Sta-
usuos are valuable only whore they
are accurate or where the element of
macouracy as in census details is
eliminated by the large figures dealt
with.
one must give the Board of Health
the highest praise for having worked
ont plan for good statistics, that the
results are plainly and manifesuy UNI
satisfactory to- stausciaus is not much
matter. SO long as people know that
these figures are untrustworthy The
only trouble would be that any French
or German statistician should think
that they were trustworthy Then
they would do harm. The Hawaiian
Board of Health should publish dis
claimer as to the accuracy of it's statis-
tics every time they are printed.

CRASHING TEETH.

The would-be professional politician
fairly crashes his teeth as he sees the
months slip by and no signs Of his be-
ing able to reach the hoped for haven
Of the extra session. He puts down all
kinds Of evils as the result of the Gov
errors refusal but the Governor
| knows, and every conservative man
knows that it is far better to meet the
present issue than to fly to the evils of
an extra session, with it's lavish eN-
! penditure and it's possibilities of injury
| to the business of the country which
is only now recovering from the set
back it received during the regular and
special session.
The extra session would cost the Ter
ritory. directly out Of the Treasury $780,
600, what it would cost Indirectly no
one can say. The indirect expenses of
the last two sessions will never be
known, but we may be sure that they
were very large and probably amounted
to as much again as the direct expenses.
The direct expenses were $4,000, being
$45, 900 for the regular and $4,000 for
the special. This would give a total
expenditure of about 100000 and rea-
soning on the same basis we should be
depleted directly and indirectly to the
tune of 100000 if the extra session came
on. This would amount to a tax of
$2.vy per head for the Legislature of the
| territory during two years.
If there were an adequate return
there might be some excuse for expend-
| ing public and private money in this
way. but there has been no return. One
has only to look through the laws Of the
| Legislature of 1901 to see how paltry
and faulty were the efforts of the ma
! jority. No single law of value emanat-
ed from them. They talk of their coun-
ty bill There was no opposition to the
county bill upon theoretical grounds,
but when a scissors and paste county

but utterly inapplicable to the needs of
our Territory,-a county bill which

ward it naturally met with opposition
But still the Republican minority was
faithful to it's trust and Republican
members worked late into the night to
try and bring order out of chaos. The
bill was to have been amended in the
Senate, but the senatorial majority
would have no amendments and sent
it in its bare crudity to the Governor,
What could the Governor do but veto
it? Had he not done so, there would
not be a spot on the Islands which
would not today be cursing the Home
Rulers county bill
We want county government, we
] want municipal government but we
want well thought out county and
municipal government, we do not want
the hasty and crude ideas of half baked
politicians, who do not see an inch be-
| fore their noses. We can expect no
other Legislation from the members of
the Home Rule party, as at present
constituted, and the dissensiOns in its
own third house" show what would
occur if an extra session were called.
An extra session of a Legislative body
constituted as our present one is would
be a wrong to the tax payers and a
calamity to the Territory.

OF the great problems which we have
before us i'm the establishment of such
schools Given the means there would
be no difficulty i'm establishing and rum
ming satisfactorily such schools, 1t is
the ideal that many Of our deep think
ing educators have before them, and
whose energy has been palled and cir
cumscribed by the known impossibility
of raising the necessary funds. Those
engaged in the work of education have
done their utmost to meet the crying
necessities Of the moment but it has
been a hard conflict and much care
has had to be exercised not to give too
much in one direction and not take
away from another.
As the proposed bill reads it would

what is spent in the Philippines or in

With such a sum of money at COM

not be started in Olaa, for which a

The commissioners are now DESTROYS

but the resources of the Territory are
entirely insufficient for a perfect re-
generation of Lahainaluna, though
plans for this purpose are now in hand.
Both Oahu and Kauai could furnish
sites, tn one at practically no cost and
the other at moderate cost. There is
a grand field for the work, and every
one in the Territory must hope the
bill will pass. The details of the bill
