Senator Achi played willy yesterday
morning in the Senate and stole a
march over Senators Baldwin and
Dickey, the doughty anti-saloon cham
pions When it met and as soon as
the usual routine business was dispos-
ed of, the willy and astute Senator, no.
ticing that his opponents had not yet
put in an appearance, Immediately
called up the Order of the Day and
had his bill to license the retail sale
OF malt liquors taken up on third read
ing, which was continued from yester-
day; after which he offered an amend
ment to make the distance from
church or school $50 feet instead of
450 feet, as already inserted on the sec
ond reading. After being carried, he
Immediately moved its passage as
amended, and it was passed by the af.
firmative votes, on the call of the ayes
and noes, of Achi, j. Il. Brown, Isen-
berg, Kaiue, Kalauokalani, Kaohi, Nc
Candless and Wilcox. Vice President
Paris presided, and President Crabbe,
c. Brown, Baldwin, Dickey, Nakapa-
ahu and Woods were absent. Mr..
Baldwin came as the ayes and noes
were being called and voted aye with
out know what he was voting for. This
is march with vengeance of the
late arriving champions. No doubt the
astute Senator and politician saw his
chance and used it, mayhap thinking
OF his own self-interest first. Evident
ly it takes more than Baldwin and
Dickey bird, put together to get ahead
of the little un."

THAT RI MISSION.

1t has been shown to the satisfaction
of The Independent that an article per-
tanning to the Honolulu Brewery, in its
quest for the remission of the 5-cent
tax, it was said that the concern had
an exclusive franchise. The franchise
we referred to, we now learn, has ex-
pired by limitation, and the Brewery
Ia now running without such exclusive
franchise. But, in regard to the remis-
sion sought, should 1t be satisfactorily
proven that such special tax of 5-cents
a gallon is an unfair and unjust impo-
5ition, and discrimination against
local industry in favor of Mainland
breweries, then we deem that is the
luty of the Finance Committee to in
yestigate closely. We believe in the
Brewery being fairly and justly dealt

In most cowardly and insulting
article, the Advertiser attempts to
strike at others through the late Prince
A. X. Kuniakea, whom it has never
heretofore recognized as being a
prince of the bood," as its own society
columns were devoid of any mention
Of either the late Prince or OF his wife,
both OF whom led quiet and unobstrus-
i've lives, as they had 70 live within cer-
tain limited bounds provided by a
thoughtful relative after parting with
their own private maintenance. Under
the different constitutions of the Mon
lrchy, the King created "orders and
titles" none can hold any title of honor
unless created by the reigning mon
arch, and In the case of the now de-
ceased Prince, he was not created
prince, but only prince by courtesy and
recognized as such only, although he
was an ALI (chief) of the blood. But
AS to his wife bearing the title of "prin-
aess," that is another story.

The Maui News says: 1t will be no
mistake to grant to the counties the
right to manage their own schools and
elect their own district magistrates.
The Hawaiians have grasped the idea
of self-government in it's broad Amer
ican sense and they need the RESPONSE
bility of managing their own country
affairs in order to develop the highest
and best that is in them, and the de-
nial or repression of their rights is as
cruel and unnatural as is the compress
sion of the feet Of Chinese ladies In
baby shoes. If entrusted with the man
agement of their own schools, it is al
most certain that they will take pride
in developing them to a high state, for
the sake of their own children"

NEEDS CON SHERATON

We understand that the emergency
item of $4,000 for the Strengthening
and widening of the Kaimuki-Palolo-
Waialae road, so that the Rapid Tran
sit Co. may be enabled to lay it's track
out that way, costing at the least $780,
600 for it to do so, is endorsed and sup
ported by the Government, because it
is believed that with these proposed
improvements out that way, enough
would be reaped in taxes within year
or two to handsomely repay on the
outlay. Believing that such policy
is a good scheme to assist the people,
so that residents may thereby, as in
this case, be enabled to have access to
easy transportation facilities at easy
cost, we fail, however, to understand
why the Legislature should be appealed
to, under the guise of an emergency,
to accommodate private parties and
corporations. But where is that bonus
charged or assessed to each property
holder out that vicinity as an induce
ment to the Rapid transit Co. to build
hot
that only blind? And then about
those living out that way, how many
are there of them? From information
given us, there are between two and
three dozens, but those directly inter-
ested in lobbying for this special "emer.
gency" item say that we are mistaken
and misinformed. Be that as it may,
there is no urgent necessity for 1t at
this time. Yet, we believe, should this
proposed extension of the electric car
line go out that way people may there
by he induced to go and live in that
noghborhood, rs there would be easy
means to go and come, and in that same
manner benefit the real estate concerns
largely interested there and the Gov
ernment ultimately by return in taxa
tion. Still we cannot see clearly
enough to understand why the Gov
ernment should help out these private
concerns.
