GEN. SMITH ON
TRADE RELATIONS

Governor General j. F. Smith, of the
Philippines, was given royal welcome
at Manila upon his arrival there on
the transport Logan from Honolulu.
Previous to landing he was interviewed
by Manila Times representative and
had something to say concerning af-
fairs in Hawaii and the Manchuria.
Getting down TO discussion of sugar
interests, General Smith said:
"One of the great arguments advanc-
ed by our opponents was that the i'm
portation of sugar from the Philippines
would destroy the beet sugar industry
in the United States. They seem TO
lose sight of the fact that the beet
sugar industry in the United States
and the cane sugar industry combined,
fail to supply the demand for sugar
| in the United states by 100000 tons.
despite the fact that the trade rela-
tions with Cuba. Porto Rico and the
Hawaiian Islands are as liberal as pos
| sible in this particular direction.
The wealth OF the Hawaiian Islands
in almost its entirety is traceable TO
the sugar industry and TO the very
free importation of Hawaiian sugar
into the United States. One of the
chief values of Cuba a foreign coun-
try in every sense of the word, Is the
sugar industry. The same is true with
regard to Porto Rico. These three
places have the freest possible relations
| with the United states, three countries
that do not absolutely need the build
| ing up that is required in the Philip
| pines, and yet these islands, that the
| United States has taken up, with these
! people, whom the United States has
adopted as its wards and has promised
to care for and build into prosperous
nation, are left out of all consideration
and treated in the most distant manner
! on the same plane as the most foreign
of foreign countries. We do not even
have the advantages enjoyed by some
| OF the absolutely foreign governments
| In trade relations with the United
States, But We will get ii, Mark my
| words. II is coming. and when the peo-
pie OF the United states are thoroughly
familiar with the situation here, and
they are learning more in week now
than they learned in a year before, the
people will force the adoption OF proper
measures toward us.

SIX YEARS
FOR WAINEE

George Wainee was sentenced by
Judge De Bolt Wednesday to imprison-
ment at hard labor for six years on
the jury's verdict of manslaughter in
the second degree, with recommended
ton to mercy.
S. B. Kingsbury, leading attorney
for the defense, in asking for the min
imum sentence-five years, the maxi
mum being ten-disclaimed having had
any intention of discreditng the Ha-
waiian judiciary or executive in his
closing address to the jury. 1t was
only what he now called the bureau
cracy, that he said existed here, with
which he had meant to find fault.
Every lawyer of experience knew that
the appointed judges in the Territories
We're better than the elected judges in
the States. He had expressed his ap-
probation of the abilities and character
of Governor Carter. In conclusion he
argued that the recommendation to
mercy was part of the verdict and
said that If the defense had spoken
the last word the defendant would have
been acquitted.
Deputy Attorney General NJ. F.
Prosser ironically thanked Mr.. Kings
bury for renouncing the intent to at
tack the administration Of justice,
adding: 'There have been too many
cases of wife-beating here. 1 came
here with a view to seeing what SEN
tence the court would impose upon a
man who beats his wife to death. The
mitigating circumstance in this murder
was killed. The evidence would have
warranted a verdict of murder in the
first or second degree. / am only sorry
that the court cannot impose a SEN
tence higher than the highest"
Judge De Bolt praised counsel for
their conduct of the case, making spe-
cial reference to the volunteering of
Mr.. Rawlins to assist the defense on
account of long acquaintance with the
defendant, and said there should be
law fixing a fee for attorneys repre-
senting defendants unable to pay.
Though he could hardly agree with the
Deputy Attorney Generals view of
what the verdict might have been. he
scarcely agreed with the jury, either.
1t was his opinion that Wainee should
have at least five years In jail, there
fore he sentenced him for six years.
So Wainee will have to serve five
with all his credits deducted.

maintaining the Federal government in
the Territory aggrcgating for the came
period, G,isp,6s4.s7. This shows We
have not only squared our account with
the national government but have n
balance OF nearly half million In our
favor.
As was very aptly stated by the
chairman Of the Hawaiian Committee on
the Refrnding Bill last February, il is
not fair to charge the payment Of "a
OOO,o0O debt to us, and IL should be de-
ducted, as II was contractual payment
specifically named in the Organic Act
IN return for the cession of lands, har-
bor and other Territorial property. As
was also stated, HawaiI enjoys the
unique position of being the only Ter
ritory of the Union that is not and has
not heen an expense and burden to the
Federal government.
Pearl Harbor. We earnestly recon-
mend that there be included in the
Rivers and Harbors Bin lat the next sos
SION of Congress an appropriation suf-
hcient to cover the expense of survey
ing Pearl Harbor and preparing plans
for its Improvement The estimated
amount for this work IL the moderate
sum of two thousand dollars. Consid-
ering the fact that there has been ex-
pended in dredging the bar at the en-
trance of Pearl Harbor the sum of
$l25,0O0, and the fact that the harbor
is at present unavailable for shipping
purposes until further improvements
are made, it is exceedingly important
that survey be made and plans pre-
pared for further improvements at the
earliest possible date.
Lighthouses. The recent disaster to
the fine steamship Manchuria has been
an object lesson of the great danger to
the many vessels calling at the several
ports of these islands on account of
the lack of necessary lighthouses. Steps
have already been taken for the cree
tion of first order light at Makapuu
Point; 1T Is safe to say that the dis
aster above referred to would not have
occurred had this light been in opera
ton. On account of the close proxim-
ity of the island of Molokai to Oahu,
however, the necessity is almost as
great for similar light on the north
coast of that island as at Makapuu
Point. The recommendation has al
ready been made for Fourth Order
light at the Leper Settlement, at an
estimated cost of forty thousand dol
lars. On the advice of Captain Slat-
terry we would earnestly recommend
that this recommendation be changed
from Fourth Order to First Order
light at that point.
The need of First Order light on
the north coast of Kauai is very great.
There is at present no light at that
point for shipping approaching these
islands from China or Japan. This
coast is menace to all of the fine large
steamers plying between the Orient and
the Pacific Coast via this port. and the
most urgent request should be made
for an appropriation for establishing
a light at some point on the north coast
Of Kauai where the greatest amount of
protection would be afforded
If the foregoing suggestions meet
with your approval your committee
recommends the adoption of the follow
ing resolutions:

and the leader of all social functions in
Dublin, says he had "a daisy time" in
Boston and New York, where the girls
outvied each other in their efforts to
entertain him. He says a special post
man had to be put on to carry his let
ters and he is never tired of telling the
story of twenty-five young girls lining
the ceiling and walls of his sitting
room with La France roses and then
bringing a wagon load of flowers with
which they proceeded TO pelt him as he
left the dinner table. There is no doubt
that Louis of Battenberg is the most
popular German prince who has made
his home in England. He is now

ENLISTED men HERE
GIT NO EXTRA PAY

The Judge Advocate General of the
Army has recently decitied that the en-.
listed men stationed at the Hawaiian
Islands are not entitled TO extra duty
pay. This decision is based on the
regulation which provides that soldiers
receiving the 20 per cent, increase for
foreign service are not entitled TO ex-
ira duty pay and that, as the Hawaiian
Islands are considered foreign as far
as military service is concerned, the
soldiers serving thereon are not enti-
tied to the privileges OF extra duty
pay. This ruling also applies TO the
Philippines.

For wounds, bruises, burns and like

Chamberlain's Pain Balm. 1t acts as
an antiseptic, forming a thin. imper-
ceptible film over the injured parts,
which excludes the air and causes the
injury to heal without matter being
formed, and in much less time than
by the usual treatment. In cases OF
burns 1t allays the pain almost in
