THE Stars
BIRTHDAY.
From The Pacific Commercial Ad-
vertiser)

(From The Pacific Commercial Ad-
vertiser)
The Star was fourteen years old yes
terday. It was started by the Annex
alton Club during the troubous times
of 1898 and had a small army of stock
holders. The first editor was DR.. Nc
Grew, his managing editor and sue
cessor being Walter G. Smith. The
original plant, type, presses, etc, were
bought from the latter but until they
arrived from California and were set
up in the McInerny block the paper
was printed by Thrum in the Bethel
street building now occupied by
branches of Bishop Bank. Arthur
tombstone was the earliest reporter on
the paper and succeeded Editor Smith
in May, 1894. The Star had lively
time in it's earliest years and was in
the courts with the Queen and Claus
Spreckels It's circulation was very
large, for those times, the annexation
lists all taking it for patriotism's sake
and the royalists buying it out of curl
osity. The Star was a four-page paper
with another leaf inserted, but, COM
pared with the Star of today was a
small affair. The establishment, which
has expanded greatly in material equip
ment, is about to remove to the Nc
Candies building, opposite it's place of
birth.

SAYS SITUATION
IS VERY SERIOUS
SECRETARY ATKINSON SPEAKS
OF CONDITIONS RELATIVE TO
IMMIGRATION MATTERS.

In the opinion of Secretary of the
Territory Atkinson, the immigration
situation here is very serious In addi-
tion to securing settlers who will re-
main in the islands, he believes that
efforts should be made TO induce the
people who are here to remain.
In discussing the matter he said
u think that the crisis in immigra-
ton matters has been reached and
that some action, and veryq decisive
action must be taken Immediately.
Here the Portuguese are leaving
four hundred last Alameda and four
hundred to follow next Alameda. Do
you know what that means? 1t is
that in four trips of the San Francisco
steamer as many Portuguese will have
left as were brought here by the Suv-
eric at a cost Of $4,000.
when you have a crisis I believe IN
facing 1t. If the remedy is severe let
1t nevertheless be adopted 1t stands
to plain arithematic that if they con-
tinue to leave at the present rate, the
Territory will soon be depleted of its
industriaus and law-abiding Portu-
guese population.
ION account of the changes brought
about by the immigration bill, where
in the Japanese are allowed to come
to Hawaii but not to go hence to the
mainland, we are put on the basis of
an Asiatic community. On the other
hand. with the virtual exclusion of
Japanese from California, the Califor-
mans are put on an American basis
ct think under the conditions as they
exist we should make a more serious
effort to retaon those whom we have
here, besides retaining any more that
we may induce to come
How can this be done? I do not
say we can hold everybody here but
/ do know method by which we can
hold a whole lot of people That IS
not only to employ the Portuguese but
others we have here in all the mechan.
ical positions around the sugar mills

people as well.
1.-THE Portuguese have a strong fam.
lily trait. The sons generally turn II
their money to the family excheque
and when enough is accumulated tn,
father retires from hard labor toi
wages and the sons support the whole
family. Therefore it would be we'll fol
the planters to watch those sons, tall
encouragingly to them and, whenever
they are old enough. initiate them il
the worg for which they are siutet
and instruct them in the conditions
by which they can hold their positions
With every job allotted endeavor tC
domicile the family.
"I believe that the agricultural IN
terests should dig down into theil
pockets and pay their labor such wages
as would hold those people here, be
cause If they lose them they will hav,
to get others"

A great Masonic banquet was held in
Newark last Friday night. Governor-elect
Fort was toastmaster and many prominent
men spoke. Gen. Bingham, in speaking
on the influence of the Town Meeting idea
Of government, made plea for its con-
tinuauce:
s'Do not forget" he said ssthat there is
such a thing as honesty and truthfulness
and loyalty. On these three qualities de-
pend the future of our nation. Don't be-
come too immersed in money-making. It's
very desirable. but there are other things
TO make you happy. The only thing on
earth which is really worth having is the
society Of your friends.
ssThe town meeting is the foundation of
our Anglo-Saxon liberties. Our republic
is, fear, still an experiment.. It's weak
est point is acknowledged to be municipal
government. Is is said to be due TO the
natural results Of large aggregations of peo-
pie. Our people are SO intense and ener-
getic in development, SO fond of liberty,
that they neglect their civic duties or devote
themselves to their own advantage. But
see no reason why ten men in every alder
manic or Senatorial district cannot produce
a revolution in municipal government.
Why should not these men call "a meeting
once month and send word TO Their public
servants to come there? Don't ask them TO
come Send for them. You have elected
them as your public servants Ask them
any questions you want. Give them your
orders, and if they are reealcitrant, say to
them, well beat you for reelection and
put up the coin to do it, Isthink if that
were carried out it would go far for the
reformation Of municipal conditions.
Before introducing Justice Bergen, Mr..
Fort made few remarks on the Judiciary
"a more independent, fearless body of
men does not exist, u he declared, ''than
the judiciary of New Jersey If this country
is ever TO be perpetuated in history, it is
upon the Judiciary that the assurance of the
future rests. 1t is essential that it should
be kept incorruptible, and free from party
control. A man who touches the judiciary
with a political consideration is traitor to
the republic. A man who.would remove a
Democratic Judge, il he were ft for the
Office, simply to make room for a Republi-
can, should be impeached / am not usu-
ally commencing Democracy, and yet that
party has not removed the Republican
judges. That is the truth, and man is
not man If he does not tell the truth"

COMMERCIAL
Steel Rail Deadlock Broken.

Steel rail deadlock BROKEN.
The announcement of the placing of
an order for $4,000 tons of steel rails
on the 1907 basis by the Erie railroad
is taken to indicate the collapse of the
steel rail deadlock, particularly as it
has been followed by the statement
that practically every railroad in the
country had placed tentative orders
for the estimated requirement in steel
rails for 1868. The aggregate of the
estimates is less than that of last year,
totaling in the neighborhood of 2,40O.-
600 tons.

According to newspaper declara-
lions, the public service commission
for New York city will in its coming

rather startling declarations and sug-
gestions in regard to the railroad COM
panies of the city. 1t is limited, for in
stance, that the commission will de-
clare that with proper capitalization
the railroads could carry passengers
at less than half the fares now charged
and still make large profits. In to-
falling up the business for the year end
ed June. 80 it was found that the re-
ceipts of all the New York city COM
panies amounted to $66,O93.776. The
total operating expenses for the year

Efforts For Sunday Closing.

Efforts For Sunday Closing.
After having spent two Sundays I'M
der the strict enforcement of an old
blue law prohibiting entertainments Of
every character New York decided to
have change. The board of alder
men passed an ordinance, At to 49,
permitting Sunday concerts or per-
formances of q sacred or educational
character. Still, it prohibits all the
theatrical performances, sporting con-
tests, etc, against which the reform
ers have objected. The attempt to
close all places of business at Omaha
resulted in the taking of 1000 names
of violators of the law pending de-
cision on test case Des Moines and
New Orleans are also in the throes of
social and legal conflict over the en-
forcement of the Sunday closing stat
utes. Kansas City theaters continued

Boston Wickeder Than CHICAGO.
From the annual reports of the po-
lice departments of thirty cities, as
compiled by City Statistician Grosser
of Chicago, Boston has the record of
being the wickedest city in the United
States. In the first six months of the
year 1914 arrests were made there to
each 1000 of the population. In Chi
cago the record in 1906 was only 446
and, based on the records for the first
six months of the present year, will at
the end of the year show but 29.S
More than half the arrests made in the
various cities are attributed to drunk
enness, and Mr.. Grosser declares that
the more rigid the rules for the clos

ger is the number Of arrests for drunk
