con General Principles"

Because a member of the jury. which convicted Rufus Glenn of larceny. is said to have made a remark to friend that he believed negroes should be con. victed on geenral principles, applita- tion was made to Judge Dan 4. Greene today for a new trial The attorney for the negro. William Connfff, filed an affidavit to the effect that such an utterance had been made by a Juror. and he held that such a juror was not competent. In addition to the affi- davit, Attorney Conniff said he thought the negro entitled to new trial on other grounds, recalling the testimony of several witnesses.
 Judge Greene said that he might give some thought to the affidavit about the juror, but for the fact that hc tesss. mony was overwhelmingly against the negro. Because of this he was not disposed to grant the moticn for a new trial. The negro was traed and convicted a week or two ago on a charge of larceny of lumber.

PROVINCIAL FEuD AND
BOYCOTT At HAMA

A curious story of provincial feud
and boycotting comes from Hama. The
japanese of Hama are mostly from
the three provinces of Kumamoto, Hi
roshima and Yamaguchi. The people
from the two latter provinces have
united in boycott of the former They
have organized the Yamaguchi Hiro-
shima Association, one of the rules of
which is that members must have no
association or. dealings, good or bad,
with the people from Kumamoto, ex-
cept that they may exchange the
morning salutation. The dues of the
association are fifty cents a month,
and no member, under penalty of a
fine of five dollars, shall patronize a
Kumamoto store, bath-house or bar
Der. The teacher of the japanese
school at Hama is a Kumamoto man
and so no Yamaguchi or Hiroshima
parent will send child to the school.

HAWAIIAN GIRLS
BREAK THE LAW

PASADENA, Sept. 1s.-The Hawai-
ian girls VINO are visiting this coun-
try as the guests of a Honolulu news
paper were here for a few minutes to-
day, and during that brief time they
ran against the majesty of the law.
The party was accompanied by mem
bers of the Hawaiian band from the
Alexandria Hotel in Los Angeles. They
were waiting on a street corner, when
they burst into song to while away the
weary minutes Their musical selections
quickly attracted large crowd of peo-
pie and also a policeman. 1t was the
latter's duty to inform the happy visit
ors that singing on street corners with
out a permit was not allowed in the
Crown City. This information stopped
the song, and as soon as the car for
Los Angeles came along the party
boarded it and departed.

LEI SELLERS DE-.
NOT NEED LICENSE

A delegation of seed-lei sellers visit
ed Sheriff Iaukea yesterday to protest
against having to pay a peddler's Ii
cense to carry on their business. In
some way they had connected the po-
lice department with a demand made
upon them for a fifty dollar fee, and
after calling upon Governor Frear in
the matter had come to the police sta
ton. They were informed by the Sher-
iff that the police had nothing what
ever to do with the collection of IL
censes further than the fact that a
police officer had been detailed to ac-
company Gus Rose, of the Treasurer's
Department, on roundup of the de-
linquents of the city. If it was decided
by the Treasurer that a license was
necessary it would probably have to
be paid, in case of refusal and on re-
quest of the Treasurer the police would
arrest, but nothing at present called
for any police interference.
Personally, the Sheriff informed
them, he did not believe that it was
the intent of the license law that they
should have to take out license at
all, something which Senator Chilling
worth, who had been called in, con-
firmed. The Sheriff further Informed
them that he would not prevent the
lei sellers from doing business while
steamers were in port, regarding this
as somewhat in the nature of a work
of necessity.
Sheriff Iaukea was inclined to resent
the implied statement in the afternoon
papers that he or the police had been
responsible for any demand upon the
lei sellers or for anything done to in
terfere in their business.

A GREAT SANITARIuM IS
PROPOSED FOR THE KONAS

"As result of my visit to Kona,"
says H. P. Wood of the Promotion
Committee, 'I have become convinced

ideal location for sanitarium are
justified by the facts. The climate is
bracing, the roads good the scenery

STABILITY of enlisting the medical men

motion Committee. Should you wish
more of these for distribution, will

Recent visitors to Hawaii have had
much to say about our beautiful Is
lands, their views being we'll summed
up in the statement made by Honorable
Oscar 8. Straus in his recent address
before the commercial bodies of Ho-
nolulu. which we have had printed on
the folder herein referred to.
Hawaii is being looked to more and
more as a place for rest and recreation
and while Honolulu has hotels equal
to the best on the mainland and good
accommodation may be had on the
different Islands by the traveller, the
question is often asked. what part

we find there a modern sanitarium?'

RAISE PRICE OF
SOFT COLD DRINKS

Soda water at ten cents bottle.
Outrageous. I won't pay any such
price You have to raise the price on
account of the $50 year license? Well,
a Legislature which will make a law
like that is a wonder" This and many
more like remarks were passed yes
terday by the local people who travel
ed over the Pail road and stopped at
some pake store to quench their
thirsts, that is il they wanted to
quench them with soda water.
The keepers of the small stores all
over the island have been called on
for the license fees and they feel the
hardship greatly. The total sales of
some of them in a full months time
will hardly make up the amount which
is demanded in one fell swoop. The
price of soda water has been raised.
that is the price of the genuine arti-

The Haiku Fruit and Packing Com
pany have about completed their sum-
mer canning of pines.
The yield has been more than salts
factory. One ten acre tract Of rat
toons has produced two hundred and
fifty tons of pines or an average of
twenty-five tons of rattoons per acre.
This is claimed to be the largest rat
toon crop produced in the Territory.
Haiku is noted for the phenomenal
yield of pines per acre. While other
sections produce individual pines as
large or larger than Haiku it is claim
ed that no section ofithe Territory can

acre as a whole.-Maui News.
