Forensic Society to Expand.

! Professor d. Il ! McDermott of the
university faculty will leave on Friday
for Chicago, where he will attend a
meeting Of representatives from Michi-
gan, Wisconsin,, Nebraska, Chicago, Hi
nois and Northwestern, called to orga-
nize an intercollegiate forensic honor
society. The organization if perfected
will be in debating circles what Phi
Beta Kappa is in literary circles, and
membership in the society will be lin
tied to- men who have participated in
Intercollegiate debate and oratory.
The plan originated in Minnesota,
where local forensic league has al
ready been organized. The idea of ex4
tending the scope of the league s work
and organizing an intercollegiate So
ciety has been well received by the uni
versities of the west.

EXPLOSION At PUMP
ON eEReTANIA STREET
CAUSED BY OIL GAS

Residents in the neighborhood Of the
Beretania street pumping station, on
the corner of Alapai street, were
startled early yesterday afternoon by
the sound and shock Of an explosion.
Those who ran out Of their houses to
see what was the matter beheld SCOT
cloud emanating from the rear OF the
pumping station. Above the rear boil
er in the station a steam drum had
blown up from an accumulation OF oil
gas. The brick-and-cement Jacket was
broken and the material precipltatt I
into the furnace room. No one wa,
injured.
IL think that carelessness was prob
ably the cause Of the Beretania street
pump explosion" said Superintendent
OF Public Works Holloway today. 81
think that the cause was probably like
this: The flame went out and the oil
kept on pouring. Gradually II became
heated enough from the hot bricks to
become ignited, and the explosion re-
suited. The whole matter is nothing
serious. Similar accidents are occur
ring right along on the plantations"
Holloway, when asked II he though,
the occurrence OF such an accident was
not an argument against the use Of oil
rs fuel, stated that he did not.

THE ADVERTISER ON ROADS AND
POLITICS.



In our last issue we published un-
der the above heading a clipping from
the Advertiser to show its attitude to-
ward the Hawaiian citizens.
The slurs cast at the Hawaiians are
wholly uncalled for and deserve the
severest condemnation Of all fair.
minded people irrespective OF nation.
ality or political affiliations.
Our own experience with citizen la
Dor has not been such as TO justify
any such reflections as were cast and
we believe the Department of Public
Works. from the Superintendent down
to the road lunas, are more to blame
than the laborers.
The policy of the Superintendent
has been such that contractors must
undertake to do work at a lower fig
ure than IL can be properly done for
and then get off without fully comply.
ing with the specifications. This re-
suits in poorly paid labor and inferior
work and usually costs the taxpayer
more money than good substantial
work would. Any white man who
would prefer Japs and Cinnamon to
native Hawailans as laborers on pub.
lie works is unfit to be known as an
American and should don the wooden
shoes and kimono or pig.tail of the
race whose champion he would be.

WITH BROTHERLY LOVE

ther striking expression of his great
unhappiness. The following is an ey
cerpt:
For unadulterated gall this ex-
tract from q special article by the

monarchical and oppressive to-
ward the people. while am firm
believer in the people. Since the
world began these two forces in
opposition have made the fur 1y

treaty was proposed at Washing
