MANAGER LOW SHUTS OUT THE
CONFIDENCE MEN-EDITOR SHI-
OzAWA ON THE INNOVATION.

Editor Shiozawa has resumed pub
fishing an English page in the verna-
cular Hawaii ShinpO. The editor says:
owing to an unavoidable absence of
the editor of our English column from
the Territory and the subsequent ill
ness of our English typesetter, we have
been compelled to discontinue our Eng
lish issue for the past three months.
But now that things have resumed
their normal condition. we shall not
again disappoint our patrons with a
repetition of this failure"
The editor then proceeds to hand a
bunch to Manager James a. Low of
Honolulu Planta ton. He SAYS:
I'VE are informed by several parties
who made unsuccessful visits to the
place that the Honolulu Plantation is
secluding itself from the outside world.
Manager j. a. Low caused some guards
posted all around the plantation do
main and would not allow any outsid-
ers to trend upon the company's land
except some few privileged persons.
They say he is probably afraid that
Uncle Sam may take it again into his
head to enter the place and repeat the
covetous act of land grabbing-carry
away his rich fifteen-ton-per-ac land,
paying mis- (Uncles) own price for it.
DR.. Ninomiya of the city attempted
to make a professional call there the
other day in response to a request to
attend a patient, when he was met bJ
stern looking guard on the boundary
line and was told 10 move in some 9TH
er direction. All the physicians eX-
plantations and protestations awaited
nothing and he was ANONYMOUSLY
turned back from the premises. Believ-
ing perhaps that he had been mistaken
by the guard for an undesirable char
acter such as a gambler or a smooth
faced-lOafer (by the way, the Doc. is
always well dressed and exceedingly
smooth looking) who occasionally fire.
| quented a plantation camp and robbed
the unsuspecting inmates of their hard
earned money, the physician, on his
second visit to the place, went there

erences such as a letter of recommend

practitioners in the city, his license

the doctor counted without his host
In spite of this formidable array of the
important documents and blood curd-
! ling tools, the uBcOmpromising guart
said nit and the physician had tC
beat a second hasty retreat from the

half of the patient who is pining away
for lack of the good physician"
After writing the foregoing the edi.
tor prepared for a somersault and per.
formed it in the following language:
I'VE are quite in sympathy with
| Manager Low who has had to adop
| the reported new method for the pro,
| lection Of his employees from the vile
clutches of visiting gamblers and con
fidence men. The honest, confding la.
! bOrers were too often defrauded o.
their hard earned money by thesf
! gents. Only,we wish him to instruc
| his guards to discriminate between
| good and a bad man, a gentleman ant
vagabCnd in the future. AS to tn,
right of stranger to enter the camps
we will not try to discuss it here, foi
we know, right or wrong, he does il
| for the sole benefit of his laboTers ant
| his employers and not for his own sci.
| fish purpose, and the end justifes the
means in this case"
