New Zealdnd's Lesson.
Premier Seldom Puts the Government
Into the Meat Business.

Premier Seldom Puts the Government
Into the Meat Business.
They do many things better in New
Zealand. For example, they have just
nationahzed a great industry without
putting it through the stage of trust
ownership, which we appear to find
inevitable.
The industry nationalized is the
meat trade. The Government viii
employ the sixty or seventy existing
slaughter houses and packing houses
to kill, freeze, and ship the meat TO
Great Britain at a fixed price per
carcass. Prime Minister Seldom
hopes to ruin the British meat mar
ket by cutting prices below all COM
petition.
The dispatches do not make clear
whether the government will sell meat
TO its own people at home, but 1t is a
fair assumption that it will do so in
time, if not presently. The sentence
which says that meat viii be sold at
cost, and not for profit, would seem to
refer necessarily to domestic sales
rather than to exports.
Our beef and mutton may be no
cheaper after the New Zealand gov
eminent drives our Swifts and Ar
mours ont of the British meat mar
kets, yet we viii have profted. We
viii have grown wise in the wide pos
sibilities of government, even to see
ing opportunity through the trust
stage of development for the nation
alization of many industries
Even those good souls who have a
horror of government operation OF
any business find it hard to quarrel
with a good steak sold at bare cost,
Food for thought as well as for
Drawn is this government meat OF
New Zealand.

the Qun While in Rome Young
Promises His King Edwards Recent Host

Victor Emmanuel for help against Ger
many fell on deaf ears 1t was because
of the bitter resentment excited
throughout Italy by the presence OF the
French troops at Rome.
The moment when after the overthrow
OF the empire the French troops We're
withdrawn from the Eternal City, it
was stormed and captured by military
forces of King Victor Emmanuel. This
will perhaps serve to explain why the
Empress Eugene during her recent stay
at Rome held nc intercourse with the
reigning house of Italy, which affected
TO ignore her presence, and why she
was received with particular regard and
consideration at the Vatican.

The Adventure Instinct.
1t Should Be Gratifed in Boys in Some
Rational Manner.

From time to time we find in the
papers accounts of boys who set
buildings on fire or do other mischief,
ITO see the fun" The phenomenon is
common enough to justify generaliza-
tions.
This propensity for creating an ex-
citement by means dangerous TO other
people Is sometimes considered a sign
of degeneraey, and often, no doubt,
it is. But IN some. cases 1t is certainly
g sign of starved appetite for adven-
ture on the part of the boy. The
healthy boy or girl usually goes
through a phase Of development in
which excitement of some sort OF
other is all but a necessity. Disease
of the body is sometimes caused by
the lack of some important element of
nutrition. Disease of the mind may
be caused by the lack of means to sat
isfy some natural instinct.
But II may be asked, what can we
do? Are we to supply the boy with
buildings to burn IN order to satisfy
his craving for excitement 1t is
hardly necessary to say that this
would aggravate the evil. But this is
possible and right; when boy shows
a disposition 10 hunt for excitement.
he should be encouraged to look for
it IN some proper place.
It would not be at all bad thing

DELEGATES
SECRETARY

The man who is to accompany Dele
gate Kuhio Kalanianaole to Washing
ton as his secretary will probably be
known by the end of the week. Curtis
Iaukea, who had been generally ac-
cepted as the man for the place, is now
out of the race entirely, and since his
detection from the Republican party
his name has not been considered.
The choice for secretary is now said
to lie between three men and Delegate
Kuhio will pick upon one of them be-
fore the week end. He is preparing
now for his visit to Washington as he
is anxious to be in the capital before
the extra session of Congress opens,
October Srd.
The three men now under considera-
ton are Carlos Long. Morris Keohoka-
lole and A. L. C. Atkinson. All three
are well known and would fill the bill
acceptably, no doubt. Carlos Long is
an attorney and was a representative
during the last legislature. Mr.. At
kinson is also an attorney and at pres
ent is secretary of the Republican Ex-
ecutive Committee. Morris Keohoka-
lole is confidential clerk in the offices
OF the Kapiolani Estate. He was for
merly clerk in the Interior office.

STABBED HIS
SWEETHEART
Porto Ricans Making
Trouble on
Maui.

Since the close of the grind 'ng sea
son, a large number of Porto Ricans
have gathered at Paia where they 1--we
in idleness, claiming that there is NJ
work for them, and as a natural rs-
suit, they are beginning to give the
police trouble.
on last Sunday evening there was
a serious stabbing ARRAY, in which Joe
Ambrose, a young Porto RiCah irh.ct-
ed seventeen knife wounds on one
Mary, a Porto Rican girl with whom
he was living. Several of the wounds
are dangerous, and the girl is at the
Paia hospital under the care of DR..
McConkey who states that none of the
wounds are necessarily fatal, bit that
the woman is in a critical condition.
Ambrose, who claims to be CT DAN
ish descent and states that he is only
sixteen years old, explains the affair
by saying that on Sunday when he
was away, the girl went ouF ".dins
with a Hawaiian, not returning Until
after he had retired for the night.
On their return he had row with
the Hawaiian who threw glass tum-
bier at him, and then ran to escape
his knife. In despera tion, h. !dlned
on the girl and assaulted her with
the knife. No charge will be prefer
red until the result of tn" girls
wounds are ascertained.
On Monday night, an attempt was
made to burglarize the Haiku Plan
tation store. In the center of the st7re
is a 20 inch plank ventilator, which
extends to the roof. The burglar broke
into the ventilator and slid down into
the store where he filled a sack with
watches, jewelry, and other small
plumber. He tried to make his exit
through a window, bu. the uoise at
tracted Johnson, the night watchman
at the mill. who ran to the rear the
store, gave the alarm, and went Tor
help. On his return the bura;ar had
made his exit, leaving he heg OF
plumber and his cap behind him. When
the Waterman returned he heard the
burglar running away along the flun,e
back of the store. Tn cap wa, iIen-
titled and Francisco Quirasco, 4 Porto
Rican, has been arrested on -usoItion
and committed for trial before TIE Cir
cult Court.-Mau. News.

HOME RULE
CONVENTION
Date is Fixed for
September
18th.

Home Rulers will hold their prima-
ries for the election of delegates TO the
county convention in Honolulu week
from Monday. The county convention
date is fixed for september 18th.
The dates for the primaries and con-
vention are chosen with special refer
ence to the Republican Committees Sc
lection of dates. The Home Rulers
want to see what the dominant party
intends to do Then they have designs
on some of the members of the Repub-
lican party.
1t is said on good authority that the
Home Rulers are very anxious to make
a good showing with their candidates
at this election, and for thA first year
at least, have good, clean candidates.
They can't find such men in their own
party to fill all the offices under the
county act, and have been sounding
some of the prominent white men in
order to see If they would accept "a
Home Rule nomination.
Especially with the supervisors are
they anxious to nominate good men.
They have been studying the County
Act pretty thoroughly and have about
come to the conclusion that there isn't
as much chance in the Board of Super
visors for graft as they thought. The
law provides that a vote of six of the
seven supervisors shall be necessary
to change contracts and nothing can
be done without the concurrence Of the
majority of the entire board. Under
the division made in the county act the
Fourth district will elect two supe,vi-
sors and the Fifth the same number,
while the remaining three must come
from the county at large. AS the Home
Rulers practically concede the Fourth
district to the Republicans. and have
little hope of the three supervisors at
large, they are entirely willing to put
up good men in the Fifth district where
they think they have some little hope
for winning.
Denial is made by some of the Home
Rulers that the county ticket has al =,
ready been selected as has been said
by Chas. Motley. They say that Not
ley is the only avowed candidate, even
though he does say he doesn't want
office. Further they charge that Not
ley is the only man who is fighting
fusion with the Democrats, and that he
is doing it only because the Democrats
wouldn't support him at the last cleo
ton.
The Democratic Executive Commit
tee, though it made an announcement
some time ago that it had no inten-
ion of putting UP ticket and also
that it would have nothing to do with
the Home Rule party, is now reported
to be considering the ACCESSIBILITY of
fusion.
There is some talk also of putting up
a ticket, but this is probably done
with the idea of winning concessions
from the native party
The Home Rulers intend to nominate
and elect delegates to the county con-
vention on the same day-Monday
August 31st. The convention to choose
the officers will not be held until
nearly a month later-September 25th

NOT A BRANCH OF
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

The Honolulu branch of the Chris
tian Science church wishes to
deny publicly the Statement that
there is native branch of that
church in Hawaii. They say that Rev.
Mr.. Kekipis church is in no way con-
nected with the Christian Science
church nor is 1t branch of the church.
The report that there is native
branch of the church in Hawaii was
recently published in the New York
sun, and w. d. McCracken who is
chairman of the Christian Science Pub
ication Committee in New York State
sent the following official denial of the
report to the Sun:
To the Editor of the Sun:
Dear Sir: Will you kindly contradict
In your columns the preposterous re-
port purporting to come from Homo
lulu, that there is any christian Sci
ence craze" among the native Hawai-
ians.
There are n few Christian Scientists
among the resident whites, but there
is not now, and never has been, any
native branch OF the Christian Sci
ence church" there. The Christian
Science Journal, which contains the Of
hcial list OF all Christian Science
churches and societies with the names
or their readers. does not contain any
name of this sort.
Savage practices, such as those de-
scribed in your issue of August end,
cannot, by any stretch of the magma
ton, be ascribed to Christian Science
teaching"

AN ANSWER TO
CURTIS IAUKEA

Editor Advertiser: 1t is not desira-
BILE to prolong controversy, but In view
of the apparent attitude of Mr.. 1au-
kea toward my recent criticisms in the
Gazette, which he Is pleased to call
an attack on a political opponent, It
may not be miss TO suggest tha' ne
reread that article and see IL he can.
not find in it something better than
an attack on political opponent.
True there was an expression of just
resentment toward Hypocrisy or fraud,
particularly when perpetrated on
friends by those who profess to be
friendly, and this requires no apology
anywhere; and contempt for an inter.
est in politics that has no higher in
centive than greed for spoils.
There were pointers to the native
Hawaiians which it was hoped might
open the eyes of the well disposed a.
mong them to the mistakes which, in
the opinion of some observers at least,
they are making, and IL POSSIBLE.
shame the others. But there was first
of all the deep and sincere regret Of
one who, having no personal acquain-
lance with Mr. Iaukea, had neverthe-
less acquired a favorable and friendly
estimate of the man Regret, no:
merely that he should have defeated
from fellowship in the Republican
ranks, but that his sensibilities should
have been so hurt as to lead him to
that point. And lastly there was an
appeal to his calmer and better judg-
ment to reconsider the hot tempered
tered. Justly considered, a man should
not be judged by the mere name Of
the party with which he has attiliate'
unless that name has became syno-
nym for folly and evil doing, and IL
is in just these respects that the Home
Rule party have made their name obi
Gus. With fine field before them IN
which to win applause and gain ar
enviable reputation for wisdom and
good sense, they have simply cooked
their own goose. AS repeatedly as.
serted by their own orators n the
latest campaign, they bit off Their OWE
noses to spite the other party (supreme
folly), just that and nothing more
Mr.. Iaukea charges that the Repuh-
lican party has committed errors; no
party will be free from them. In one
and the same Di cath he franks God
that the time when the FOREIGNER
Exercised considerable influence in
the political affairs of Hawaii is over
and that 1.-The aborigine is now an Am
erican citizen" The two ideas do not
seem to be very consistent, consider
ing the context, for without th.'t "fur-
eign" influence the aborigine woulc
never have attained the privilege of
being an American citizen. But what
then? VIII he affiliate with the un-
American party?
Time was when the "foreSn" and
the aborigine worked hand in hand for
the common good. Why may it not
be so again? The Home Ruler says
no..
The name of your correspondent?
oh never mind about that. Let Mr.
1aukea regard the voice from behind
the wings as unfriendly if so it please
him, but let him remember at the same
time, that he who is wise will not
scorn to profit by a suggestion If he
may, from whatever source it may
come.
