WHAT VENEZUELA

there is more justice than was at fir-t

be condoned by any rule or precedent

There are two distinct classes of
claims, and fhe British and German
notes duly discriminate between them.
Those in the first class include claims
growing out of depredations, conhsca-
tions and insults committed against
British and German ci izens resident

Hilo tribune., 1903-05-01
THE POETIC PAST.

When the mammoth Young
building replaced the cottages and
arbors and tropical underbrush, that
once infested the heart of Honolulu,
there were voices lifted up in regret
at the passing of old Hawaiian land
scape. There was even a wall in
the Advertiser over the extinction
of typical indigenous Island charm
by the relentless march of progress
and conmercialism. The tear was
due the old, mingled as it was, with
the aloha extended to the new but
sterner and better order Of things.
In the same spirit the TRIBUNE
dropped a sigh in behalf of the dis
appearing wind-jammer and the
good old salt sailors that e%nlivened
this port, before the advent of levia-
than steamships. The sigh we
dropped was sacred but it was moi
intended to discourage Jim Hill OF
other capitalists in their plans &c
plough the Pacific waves with mon
ster ships. 1t was not intended tC
turn back the hands on the dia
plate of time, to a day when suga.
from Olaa and Waiakea and Wal
naku and Onomea should agaii
seek New York by sailing vesse
and Southern Pacific. In the glor.
of everything new and better, it j
somebody's business to sigh in be
half of the poetic past.

HOUSE FLIES IN HILO.
Like the Mosquito Its Numbers In.
crease Through Negligence.

The gradual increase in the number of
common house flies in Hilo is noticeable.
There was a time when the housefly was
as scarce here as snakes now are. But
each year sees the domesticatad fly in
larger numbers and it is but a question of
time when this pest will be as great a
nuisance as the mosquito.
This at any rate is the testimony of
Prof. Henshaw, who keeps track of such
things and who knows the cause and
effect of a thousand things in the natural
world, which are not noticed by the ordi-
nary observer.
"There will come a time" said Prof,
Henshaw this other day, "when the house
fly and the mosquito will be suppressed
by ordinance just as certain other nui,
sances now are abated. Civilization
marches slowly, and it may be a long
time, but il will come. The house fly,
like the mosquito, afiicts humanity be-
cause people are careless. The affection
does not end with the fly, however, for it
like the mosquito, is also a vehicle foi
the distribution of disease germs"

No Public Administrator.

Honolulu, April Ex-Governor
Dole achieved the distinction this
morning Of having a veto sustained
by unanimous vote. His message
Oh the law relating to estates Of de-
ceased persons and creating the
Office of public administrator pointed
out reasons of a veto so clearly that
not a voice was raised against it in
the House and the members who
had passed the law, on motion OF
Paele, seconded by Chillingworth,
approved the veto, The message
was as follows:
"My objections to the bill are as
follows:
Section IL provides that Public
Administrators shall take charge OF
the estates for which no administra-
tors are appointed and which in
consequence "are being wasted, un-
cared for or lost" estates of de-
cedents who have no known heirs
estates ordered into his hands by
the court" and estates upon which
letters of administration have beer
issued to him by the court"
"The two latter provisions give
the Court undue power to take
possession of estates and pass then
into the hands of the Public Admin
istrator, whether it is for the inter
est of the heirs to have such pro
ceedings taken and the consequent
expense incurred or not; and whel
it is considered that the Clerk o
the Circuit Court-the appointee o
the Circuit Judge, is to be ex-oficiC
the Public Administrator, and tina
he is not required to give any fur
Their bond other than his oficia
bond as clerk, except when rea
estate is to be sold, the danger O
these provisions andthe opportunit,
they afford to corrupt o~fhciale, may
be in some measure understood"

BAND TAKES A RIDE.
Mr.. Lambert Makes an ImprOmptu
Program for the Boys.

Last Sunday afternoon according to
notice the Hilo band appeared at Waia-
kea to give a concert. Two pieces were
played and rain began to fall. The ba, d
shifted to the depot where the protecting
caves gave ahem shelter. The rain con
tinued until train time, when Superinten-
dent Lambert appeared and invited the
musicians to take a ride to Mountain
View. They accepted and gave a con-
t@inuous musical concert all the way.
They played at all the stations and at
tRcted big crowds of people who thought
possibly President Roosevelt had ex
tended his tour to Hawaii.
As a result of the incident Mr., Lambert
states that he will erect a band stand neai
the station, so that the boys may play al

LABoR'S OPPORTUNITY.

The organization, known as the
Allied Trades of Hilo is standing
before the open gate of opportunity.
1t should step in and live up to its
fullest possibilities. These three
hundred laboring lei of Hilo can
become if they will, the most potent
political factor in Hilo and this
county. While the Allied Trades
is not a political organization, yet
its members are all American citi-
zens and each one is vitality inter
ested in public affairs. AT the out
set of County organization, it is
fortunate that the interests of labor
may be safeguarded by IN organiza-
ton in whose counsels all classes
are represented. The County Off
Gals who shall first fill the chairs in
the offices of the County of East
Hawaii should be made to know
the value of the laboring mans
vote. Then in public matters i'll
which labor is interested, these Off
Gals will heed the just demands of
the laboring men of Hawaii.
A labor party has not been effec-
tive in American politics. A poll
teal party cannot be founded upon
a speciality, or maintained by re-
cruits from any single industrial
class. Especially in Hawaii, would
it be unwise for laboring men to
form a party of their own.
To carry their influence furthest
they must work together in the
councils of one or the other of the
dominant political parties. 1t is in
conventions and at the primaries,
that the laboring man can do his
most effective work. Let him work
here in unison and concord and he
will dominate the politics of Hawaii,
Not only will an active interest
in local politics augment the III.
f1uence of this labor organization
but it will become one of the mos
potent factors in establishing har
mony between the different elements
of our voting population. The Ha
waiian, the Portuguese and the emf
grant from the mainland will stanC
on a common platform and race
predjuiice will disappear before thu
light of common interest. A labo
organization properly handled cal
be of great value to its individual
members in promoting their welfar
in business. 1t can be of great ser
vice in a community like this, b,
conservative and united action i,
politics.

THE political fermentation which
began in Laupahoehoe last week is
a good sign. Similar meetings in
every district in the county would
be productive of good results. The
people should not be backward in
pointing out their favorites. Open
expression of the popular will,
leaves less underground work for
the professional politician and guar
antees better results.
