Every day is a fresh beginning"
every New Years day should be espe-
cially SO. We grow so accustomed to
the coming and going of the years that
the dawning of the new loses its i'm
pressiveness and sentiment. But why
should it? The morning comes with
out herald, just as all tbs precedessors
have come, but it has meaning very
significant to us if we are attentive
and thoughtful. We are travellers
steadily nearing the end of our jour-
ney, where the most momentous in
terests are to be decided for us. We
do not know how short or long the
distance we have to go. But each New
Year is milestone showing we are
nearer the end, reminder that what
ever is needed to be done or thought
of for ourselves. or whatever kindness
We would show our fellow-travelers
must be preferred promptly. for the
opportunity is rapidly hasting away.
But the thoughts of the New Year
need not be sad or depressing. They
surely should not be so for the Chris
tian. All his best things lie before
him. for "the path of the just .
shineth more and more unto the per-
feet day." ST. Paul's courageous
motto is good for us at the beginning
of new year: Forgetting those
things which are behind, Il press
toward the mark for the prize of the
high calling of God in Christ Jesus :"
He could not have had the faith to
forget nor the courage to press for

with reverent triumph: Il know whom
I have believed, and am persuaded
that he is able to keep that which l
have committed to him."
The past. with all its mistakes. fall
ures and disappointments, could be.
in a right sense. forgotten because
committed to Him whose atonement
covered all. and whose merit made up
for all. The future. with its ques-
tions. responsibilities. and possible
gain, could be faced not only with
composure. but with eager desire to
meet whatever God should appoint
In such a spirit let us begin another
year. Leaving what we cannot undo,
sorry though we may be for our
shortcomings and foolishness, with
Him who. by divine alchemy passing

MoNopoLlsrs MOVED EARLY.

Henry E. Cooper states that the
clause in the County Act, which gives
absolute power to the County Commits
sioners to fix the flash test of fuel
oil, regardless of the general laws of
the Territory upon the subject, was
taken by him from the draft of the
county act of 1908.
This indicates that the fuel oil monop-
olists began work longer ago than
most people thought for.
The Governor having pointed out
this rotten spot in the County Act, a
measure was introduced in the Senate
yesterday, to repeal this section?
1t remains to be seen whether the
monopolists have gotten the Territory
so securely by the throat that they
can defy the Governor and prevent
the passage Of the law.

THE FUEL OIL SCANDAL.

The attempt to raise the flash test
of fuel oil to $50 degrees is developing
into a scandal that flavors OF the Ola
DAVIS when opium and lottery bills
were forced through the legislature TO
the tune Of jngling coin for private
profit.
SHADY politicians are haunting the
legislative hall urging members to vote
for the "high flash test" This KIND
of cattle does not work for love. VINO

BARRIERS, saloon keepers and native
political runners in the out districts
of Hawaii, where fuel oil has never
before been heard of, are consumed
with anxiety about the oil bill, and
are writing to their Representatives 10

The Board of Underwriters of Homo

The great plantations of Ewa Wal

haustive investigation of the SUBJECT
and under expert advice, have made
contracts for FIVE years, for oil that
flashes well under $50 degrees. They
are now using this oil with safety and

The proposed law will shut them out
from using the oil which they have
contracted for.
For whose benefit is this Ubiquitous
attempt being made.
The charge was made. and believed
by the Advertiser, that the Standard
Oil Company was the guilty party.
In this issue of the Advertiser, Mr..
Il. ID. Tenney states that he person
ally interviewed the Pacific Coast
manager of the Standard Oil Compa-
ny. who stated that he took no inter

sidered it absurd to make the test any

by professional engineers and firemen
One company accepts the response
bility, however, the Pacific Oil and
Transportation Company, otherwise
known as the "Matson Company"
The fight has been made from behint
the blind that it was in the public
interest. This false claim Is utterly
disproved by the fact that no such test
is required any where in the United
States; by the fact that the fire under
writer's OF San Francisco are satisfied
with a test of 10 degrees; by the fact
that the fire underwriters of Honolu-
lu are satisfied with a test of 100 de.
grees.
The reason and the only reason fol
this desperate and unjustifiable at
tempt is that the Matson Company
have low grade, high flash test oil
and they are trying to shut out the
producers of high grade low flash tes
oil from competition in Hawaii, re-
CARELESS of the rights or interests OF
the people of Hawaii.
1t is an example of the worst kind
of selfishness, which corporate greed
is giving so many examples of; an
utter disregard of the interests of the
public for private gain.
Is the legislature of Hawaii prepared
to sacrifice its own citizens for the
benefit of greedy foreign corpora
ton?
