MR., LONGWORTH Sees
FEDERAL JUSTICE HERE

Congressman Longworth. on the IN
vitation of District Attorney Breckons
yesterday paid visit to the premises
in the judiciary building connected
with the Department of Justice Of the
United states. On this occasion he had
an opportunity Of watching proceed
ings IN a case Of dispensing Federal
justice in this Territory where aliens
are concerned.
This was the examination Of jap
anese named Hiraao on two separate
charges BY L. :, Commissioner George
a. Davis. one Of the informatlons ac-
cused him Of bringing females into the
United states far immoral purposes.
The other charge was that Of a per-
sonaI violation Of the Edmunds Act
HIrano was bound over TO tbs Federal
grand jury in both cases, his bonds
being $500 in the first and $500 in the
second one.
Mr.. Longworth showed a deep in
terest IN the proceedings, as well a.
a thorough grasp Of the legal aspects
Of the matters involved, Mr.. Davis
said afrerWard.
From his experience On committees
Of Congress he knows great deal
about the problems that have 70 De
met by the Federal authorities here
This was very evident from the re-
marks made in conversation with Mr.
Breckons and myself. You know Mr.
Longworth was In Congress long De
fore his marriage to the Presidents
daughter.
He Is a bright man and it was
easily gathered from his conversation
that Hawaii will have good friend in
Longw0rth after his
present visit In the Territory"

AN AMERICAN SPIRIT.

In that respect the political and
social conditions of these islands are
more American than some sections Of
our country where the American spirit
has in sporadic instances been ever
ridden by uu-American practises-
thoroughly agree with the leading men
whom l have met here and who 10 a
large extent are responsible for Ameri-
can annexation. that these islands
should remain American in government
and in spirit, and certainly none OF the
races that dwell here so far as 1 have
been able 10 learn has any reason 10
complain because Of the American
spirit"
Mr.. Sheba asked the Secretary about
his future immigration policy, Would
you encourage the European immigra-
tion?"

coNGREss - ~.

The policy Of our Government is
not controlled or shaped by any execu-
tive officer, but primarily by Con-
gress, Mr.. Straus replied. The ex-
ecutive officers administer under the
laws. They are not either lawmakers
or above the laws. Consequently what
I tell you Is no more than the express
sion of opinion, not an official opinion,
bur OF a visitor.
AN ideal condition for the future
welfare of these islands would be that
there should not be too great pre-
pouderance Of any one race, but that
the equilibrium be maintained.
7 certainly think that the japanese,
with their skin, enterprise and energy,
are as valuable for the future pros
perity and commercial advancement Of
these islands as any race, either Euro
pean or Asiatic.
1T is Of the highest Importance that
the races should continue to work in
harmony for the welfare Of the is
Iands-not as Japanese or as Portu-
guese or as natives. but as Americans
living IN Hawaii Unlike other coun-
tries in the past, the American policy
is not to govern its Territorial pos
sessions for selfish purposes, but TO en-
dow those possessions with all OF the
blessings of the American system she
does not govern in order 10 derive rev
enues from these Territories. but u
bring the blessings Of liberty and equal
rights, and the consequent benefits
that are derived therefrom, for the ad-
vancement, moral, educational and po-
IiticaL Of the people. irrespective q

KINDLY RELATIONS.

What has affected me very forcitIy
Is the kindly relation Of the varicus
people mere This seems 70 perva6e al
classes and as a result good feellag
and harmonious relation exists. These
islands may be characterized as The
meeting place Of nations. where Ameri-
cans, Europeans, Orientals and Hawai-
ians live in the spirit Of anity and
mutual confidence. Some Of the peo-
PIE Of Europe who are divided by re-
lfgious difference and race distinction
could learn much by visiting this Eden
Of the Pacific. That such a happy con-
dition exists, is a tribute in the first
instance TO the broad and tolerant
spirit Of America. II was Americans
who primarily shaped the political in
stitutions Of these islands and IN doing
SO they have interpreted the Ameri-
can spirit and given TO all the nation
aiIies full and equal rights

charge of running gambling house,

CHINESE GAMBLERS
PAY THEIR FINES
Especial to the BuIiotinl


Waikiki, Feb. 9.-Emboldened by
the ease with which they proved their
innocence before Judge Mckay yester-
day. the twenty-four Chinks seem to
have considered themselves invulner-
able from police attacks and again In
dulged In the great Oriental pastime
of swapping wash tags, and embit-
tered by their defeat the police again
got near to the center Of oriental at
traction and hid themselves where they
could see and not be seen by the in
nocent twenty-four Chinks. They saw
the Chinks leave the game one by one
as each man lost all his wash tags and
the process went along very much like
the nursery rhyme about the ten lit
tie niggers who went a-swimmin' u
shark caught one then there were nine,
etc, etc." Towards 4 O'Clock In tho
morning the twenty-four had dwindled
down to five. the game ended and the
most interesting part took place when
the banker produced the money and
the five unluclly Chinks proceeded TO
exchange their wash tags for coin OF
| the realm. Just then the police put IN
an appearance and the whole Quilt
taken to the police station. Before
Judge Mckay today four pleaded gull
~ and were each fined s. apiece and
one forfeited his bail, $40. and now the
bland Orientals will seek some other
way of beating the police while IN
dulging in the traditional pastime OF
the East.
The raid was planned and executed
by our new and popular deputy sher-
III, Chas. Lake.

ROADS WILL SHOW,
SAYS HENNING,
WHERE MONEY Went
Especial TO the Buiietinl

Lahaina. Feb. ia correspondent
of the Bulletin at wailuku recently re-
ported that there was much adverse
criticism of the Maui Supervisors there
The slender foundation for criticism Is
evident II one considers facts. MIR.
Hcnning, chairman of the County SUI
pervlsors, showed this today In CONVEX
sation with Bulletin man. Asked
about II, he said: "Oh, it's the same
story. Wailuku wants everything.
He then took the printed financial ex-
penditure report OF both Maui ana
Oahu and showed by the figures that
the article In question had misrepre-
scented some facts.
The criticism was that Maui had too
large police expenditure and thai
too little was expended ON road work.
Also, that peaceful Maui had as large
police force as turbulent Oahu, ON
account of some men lately being Civ
en- commissions.
las a matter Of fact" says Mr.. Hen
ming, iii they will read these two re-
PORTS OF money expended In each coun-
ty, they can see that II Is just the OPP
posite. Oahu has spent $l0G,s77 on
NHllt Hll'hA
$4,000 which you see Is $4,000 less. "
Mr. Henning smiled when questioned
about the recent enlargement of the
police force.
"Why, yes, Wailuku got two more
policemen and Honokohau and Maka-
wac one each; one of these gets $50 a
month"
"As regards small road expendi-
ture, this report shows our county has
used almost as much money as Oahu.
And the roads show for II too. Look
ut Waikiki streets and that concrete
sidewalk"
Waikiki Is the only place on Maui
that gets an appropriation for side
walks.
Anyway the comparison of the two
counties on this subject has n ten
dency toward the absurd. Oahu has
no Molokai upon which to spend $4,000
and get back $1,000,

MILITIA BOYS ARE
COMING FROM MAUI
Especial TO the BuIIetinl


Lahiina, Feb. 15.-This place will be
represented In Co. of the Territorial
militia at the yearly encampment.
Nine boys will go from here. Quite
number of others were going but on
account of sickness and future iuau
to be given will not go. The Lahaina
wharf for three nights has been the
scene of much military activity. Glenn
Crowell, first sergeant OF Co, ], from
Waikiki, has been drilling the men
md although they have had no prior
drilling he has In a remarkably short
time got them so they understand the
manual of arms and can execute flank
movements like veterans.
Newspapers and magazines have
done much to make the life of a rookie
In the regular army familiar to the
reading public. It's a joke there to
what 1t is to be rookie In the militia
at Lahaina.
Here large crowds have reviewed ev-
cry drill and the crowd has been vol
uble in comments and asides. BY do
ing post drill one night, the guard was
rather confused when he gave his post
number and "ans we'll" When he
stumbled on the number woman In
the crowd, possibly his wife, loudly
volunteered the information that he
could say "seven-eleven."
