THE IRISH AMERICAN

st. Patrick's Day celebrations always
recall the gratifying fact that the glory
OF the Irish is the excellence OF their
Amcricanlsm. The Irishman loves Ire.
land and all its home associations but
he loves liberty more, and in America
he has found the land OF freedom and
opportunity which has for years been
refused him in the Emerald Isle.
rishmen are found in every walk of
our national life. They are good fol
lowers, and good leaders. They are
original, rcsuurCeful, ardent patriots
worthy opponents, and good.natured Al
all times. Granting that the Puritan'

plan is one which all citizens can dis.
cuss without becoming heated.
Perhaps Colonel MaCrarlane is right.
But what the citizens OF Honolulu want
and have a right to demand Isl results.
The through lines and the local lines
have not lacked Tor opportunity. The
field has been here. and II Honolulu

biltiCs for development, and. in the
course of this awakening, goes to work

| its proper share of tourist travel. II
must have a service not only up.to date
/ but one that can be depended upon
I The traveller must know what accom-
modations he can secure and be as
sured that he will not be crowded out
| This latter assurance the through
lines cannot give, II they be as sue
cessful in obtaining patronage as We
all hope they will From the very ma
ture of their business they must lool
after the through travel first.

feeder of UawaiI's prosperity and Il
the proper means for bringing to these

everything in Hawaii to make the Wis

OF the Civic Feds are to be realized, pol

sentiment OF the members of the eXecu-

that he should under no circumstances

without a thought for denomination,
suppTessing crime and attending to
business irrespective of any political
associations. And see what jerome
got-ll. 900 majority in spite OF pollt'

Mr.. Castle further expressed the spir-
1t OF the meeting Of yesterday, when
he said today:
There is no doubt that the Civic
Federtiop will in the coming campaign
take hold vigorously, again, on behalf
Of the straight, honest and economical
