INSPECTORS DUMP STUFF
In MAIL UNSTAMPED
WIRELESS APPEAL FROM HOMO.
kAA ANSWERED TO POINT
EXPENSE WITHOUT
VOUCHERS.

Treasurer Louis Kenake Of the Ho-
nOlulu postOffice called at the Office Of
the Territorial Secretary this morning
laden with election returns which had
come through the mail minus postage.
a fifteen-pOund package of unused
ballots was plastered over with post
age-due stamps and numerous smaller
sealed packages of election documents
from Henry Cobb Adams and others.
Adams had sent return ballots and SO
forth from the First Precinct of the
Fifth District without SO much as
FASTING a stamp thereon, having
dumped everything in the postofiice
with apparently no thought of the sub
sequent double cost and perhaps bel'ov-
ing that Uncle Sam would transport
the stuff for the love OF II.
Something over twelve dollars had 10
be dug up for postage and an alarming
possibility presented itself TO those in
charge Of the election returns. What
II inspectors of precincts ON the other
Islands are sending their unused bal
lots and what not through the mail
without paying postage? This will add
materially and unnecessarily to the
cost OF the elections
Secretary Carter was somewhat sur
prised at such an exhibition Of stupid
ity on the part of inspectors. If but
one two-cent stamp had been placed
on the package of unused ballots re-
turned from the First of the Fifth, fol
example, only the difference between
two cents and the required postage

The public will naturally be inter
ested in Governor Carriers inaugural
but It is the calm judgment in every
day doings that will tell the story. Pol
icies outlined in an inaugural are likely
TO be changed by unforeseen events as
every public man has discovered. The
only policy that needs no change is
the one bounded by honesty and fair
dealing in all public matters as they
arise.

Mayor Schmitz. the fiddler, is elected
to second term and Mayor Low, the
college president, is turned down. This
furnishes 70 argument against college
presidents, but It Is an education TO
those who think the day has passed
when plain, homely Americanism
counts with the voters. Our million
aires have increased tremendously and
thereby made more attractive the old
fashioned type that made the country
what II Is.

Mayor Lows defeat in New York
city was as near a foregone conclusion
as anything could be. Reformers have
yet TO learn that the practical reformer
is a man who can be honest in Office
and at the same time keep in touch
with the plain people Low had all that
wealth and qualifications as college
president could give him, but he trav-
elled a level of pomposity that doesn't
appeal 10 the average American citizen
and is not likely to for years TO come.
