THE kauai PAPER
DENOUNCES HINDUS

Referring to the Seattle dispatch
saying that Hindu laborers. driven
from city to city, are to be shipped
to Hawaii, the Garden Island makes
remarks in part as follows:
"The Hindus are of no earthly use.
They have neither the ambition Of the
Japanese, the thrift of the Chinese,
nor the strength of a ten-year-old boy.
but they possess an the undesirable
traits of these combined with an I'M
godly lot of their own and a choice
selection imported from other sources.
They are disagreeable members of
civilized community and ought. there
fore, like the lepers, TO be shipped to
Hawaii.
''Our beautiful Territory has proved
itself able to assimilate almost any
kind of a race thrust upon its shores
It soon rids itself of the ones who
will not mix with the rest of the pop
ulation. and the same would probably
be the ease with the Hindus. The
trouble seems to be that every one of
them appears to come under the cate
CORY of undesirables, and it is hardly
worth the while to invite the visit of
the tribe if they are to leave again
in short.
zone would naturally conclude that
the idea is taking root on the Coast
that Hawaii is a fit dumping ground
for its troubles and this idea is one
that it would pay the Territory TO
combat a little more vigorously than
has been the case in the past. At
present most of the plantations report
the labor supply to be more than suf-
fcient. The cry of labor famine can
therefore not be given as a cause for
allowing the dumping of outcasts from
the Pacific slope in Hawaii, especially
so when it is the avowed policy Of
The administration to further Cauca-
sian rather than Oriental immigra-
ton"

An editorial in the Hawaii Herald
on finances of the county says:

fund had credit balance of S14.797.26.

November there was a balance of only

IDENTIFIED AS
AIMEE LLOYD
Pasadena Woman Charged with Pass
ing Bogus Checks Pleads Not
Guilty-Hearing Set for
Friday

Special to The Herald
PASADENA. Jan. 16.-Aimee Lloyd
is the name of the woman who worked
a slick bogus check game on the mer-
chants of Pasadena last week and
found herself in the tolls this morning
as a result.
1t was this woman who presented a
check at the cashiers window of
Mather-Baker company and received
the rest of it's SIS face value in cash
after she had taken a portion of it's
value out in lingerie and finery.
The firm members at first objected
to the payment and the woman de-
murely asked them to please take the
check and when the banks opened in
the morning she would be ON hand
to cash it for them. She needed the
finery very much and must have it
that night.
But with the opening of the banks
in the morning she came not. Neither
did she come with the close of the
day, nor of the week, and when the
check came back with a mo good"
mark on it she was a much-sought
person.
Mr.. Mather swore out a complaint
against her, charging obtaining money
under false pretenses. A warrant was
issued in Justice ~Klamroths court,
Pasadena, and placed in the hands of
Detective Freeman of this city to
serve.
Mr.. Freeman notified several of the
local merchants the woman was want
ed and asked them to notify him i'm
mediately she was seen.
Joseph Israel was the one to find her
and it was in the Hotel Alexandria
at Los Angeles she was found last
evening. The woman was entertained
and kept track of while Detective
Freeman was answering the sum-
mons from Pasadena, and when he ar
rived he found her in box at the
Orpheum, placed her under arrest and
brought her quietly to Pasadena to
place her in the custody of woman
assistant.
This morning she was arraigned be-
fore Justice Klamroth. She pleaded
not guilty, and the time for hearing
was set for Friday morning at 10
O'Clock. The woman was held under
bonds of $1,000 and in default of bail
was lodged in the county Jail to await
her hearing.

CURRY THROWS
MORE OBSTACLES
CITY MAY SEND DEPUTY TO
SACRAMENTO
State Department Has Shown No Dis
position to Accommodate Los
Angeles Requests for Le-
gal Data

Because of the delay in getting an
answer from Secretary of State Curry,
City Attorney Leslie Hewitt will send
a deputy to Sacramento perhaps today
to get a certified copy of the certificate
showing that the shoestring strip elec-
ton has legally been annexed beach
territory to Los Angeles.
The belief prevails here that the AS
cot park adherents at the capital have
influenced Secretary Curry to ignore
the requests OF Los Angeles authorities
so that the park will not be interfered
with by the police.
Throughout this case the state de-
partment has not shown any disposi-
tion to accommodate u.s." said Mr.. Hew-
lit. I'VE have been forced to extract
the meager information with a gimlet
| do not think the state of affairs to be
| in keeping with the dignity of Los An
| geles and of Secretary of State Curry
IF we do not receive the certified
copy and number of file tomorrow som'
one will go to Sacramento from this
office to procure the needed documents.
Wire, Phone, Mail
| On December 26 City Attorney Math-
ews telegraphed to District Attorney A
M. Seymour of Sacramento county, ask
ing why the certificate had not been
filed. Nothing vas heard until Decem~
Der 29, when a telephone message from
some one in the secretary of States
Office asserted that the documents had
been filed three days previously.
No certified copy being received, At
torney Hewitt telegraphed District At
torney Seymour, asking to be informed
as to the exact status. The following
day Mr.. Seymour wired:
Certificate of annexation filed De-
cember 26. Says he notified you"
More kilograms, telephone messages
and letters asking for certified copies.
LeIande Writes Too
City Clerk Lelande on January 10
wrote to Curry personally for documen-
tary evidence that the state official had
filed a Los Angeles certificate of an
nexation.
Hewitt wrote to Attorney Seymour
asking that certified copy of the GER
tificate be forwarded if there was any
thing on file. No reply was received
and Hewitt wearily used the telephone
yesterday for the last time.
Many attorneys insist that the strip
of land in question is legally part OF
Los Angeles regardless of the certified
copies.

EASTSIDERS ASK
RIGHT TO VOTE
PASADENA'S NEW TERRITORY
NOT ON BALLOT
City VIII Have to BE ResdlVided into
Wards to Give New Residents
Franchise-obJects to
Storm Drain
Pasadena Agency,
16jh East Colorado Street,
Telephone Main 752.

PASADENA, Jan. 16.--The city
council met this afternoon in special
session to consider two matters of vital
Importance and one of them was the
further consideration of the old buga-
boo, the changing of the ward limits to
include the territory recently annexed
to the east
At present the limits provided by the
charter inclose the wards In specified
bounds which leave the people of the
east side without representation at the
ballot box. They have raised kick
and the kick has been timely. 1t Will
be in time for the passage of the
necessary ordinance to change the ward
limits before the primary city elections.
The councilmen referred the matter to
the committee on ordinance and judi
clary and instructed the committee to
work in conjunction with the city at
torney to provide for the changing OF
the ward limits to admit of the estab-
fishing of precincts In the newly an
nexed territory that the residents of the
east side may vote when the next
municipal campaign t. on.
Storm drains again occupied the at
tention of the councilmen and the ques-
tion of many of the residents as to what
provision will be made for storm dis
tricts and a disposition of the storm
waters were in part answered.
One contra version of a Stephenson
avenue property owner was shown in
the warning presented to f. E. Craw-
ford and the city. He gave due notice
that any attempt to divert storm waters
from the north of the Newton tract
into any other course than that cross
ing at the northerly end of the tract
would be met with legal action that
would lay the city and Mr.. Crawford
liable for damages.
The objection to the plans of the city
to alter certain water courses so thaC
storm waters would do the least pos
sible amount of damage occasioned
considerable surprise. What action will
be taken on the complaint is undecided.
The complaint was signed by e. d. L..

CHAMPIONSHIP
ROD AND REEL CLUB HOLDS
FESTIVE MEET
Attractive Program Enjoyed by Mem
bers-F. 3. Shaver Proves
an Adept Disciple of
Ananias

Members of the Southern California
Rod and Reel club turned out in force
last night to attend the first social
meeting even held by the organization.
Secretary Ellsworth Salyer had ar
ranged a most excellent program con-
sisting of some of the finest amateur
and professional talent in the city, and
the selections were cheered to the echo.
Good fencing by Messrs. Salyer, Hell
Ter and Horne scored hit also. At the
conclusion of the program refreshments
were served, and punch was on tap
throughout the evening.
A unique feature was the awarding
OF the fish liars championship to Roy
f. b. Shaver. Conditions of this COM
petition were such that the contest
ants had five minutes to think up
some atrocious lie relative to fishing.
Judges Geft, Coomber and Aumock
unanimously awarded the palm to
Shaver after his efforts, although there
were several other competitors. He
will be obliged to defend it now; a
task on last nights form seems not
at all heavy for him.
Marquis Ellis sang several songs and
was in magnificent voice, among the
selections being one of Secretary Sal
yer's own composition, which made a
big hit.

MAN INHALES GAS
AND NEARLY DIES

Lincoln Lewis was found in his room
at a lodging house at $50 Macy street
yesterday morning nigh to death
caused by inhalation of gas which es-
capped from a defective jet.
Lewis was found by his landlady,
Mrs. j. Miller, who had gone to the
room to clean it.
Finding the door locked she raped
loudly, but when no response was re-
ceived she gained admittance by means
of a pass key. Lewis was unconscious
and had to be taken to the receiving
hospital for resuscitation.
The old story of the Off-and-on gas
system is supposed to have been re-
cponsible for the mans close approach
to asphyxiation.

PASADENA M0URNS
DEATH OF E. C. BAILEY
Specia to The Herald.

Specia to The Herald.
PASADENA, Jan. 16.-In the death
of Attorney Edward c.. Bailey at his
home at 470 Palmetto drive, Pasa-
dena, this morning, the west lost one
of it's brightest lights. For several
years Mr.. Bailey has been prominent
in legal circles of Los Angeles and par
ticipated i'm some of the hottest legal
battles on the Pacific coast.
Edward G. Bailey was born in Boston,
May ., 1871. While an infant he re-
turned with his parents to their home
in New York city. Here he passed
through his rudimentary educational
stages and entered Cornell university
to graduate as one of it's brightest
scholars in the class of 1891. He then
entered the New York law school and
graduated in 1894 with high honors. En-
tering the practice of law in New York
city he drew attention as one of the
smartest men in the profession. With
Charles Perkins, now a member of the
staff of District Attorney Jerome of
New York, he formed the partnership
of Perkins & Bailey. He continued this
practice for four years and then moved
to Pasadena, where he assumed the
brilliant role that he had carried in
New York. He associated himself
with Judge Klamroth of this city,
fellow graduate of the New York
school, and later served the city for
year as district attorney. At the adop-
tion of the new charter Mr. Bailey dis
continued this service and entered the
firm of Lee Scott, Bailey & Chase of
Los Angeles. He continued with these
legal associates till January 1 of the
present year. At that time the firm
dissolved partnership and he entered
business for himself
He was member of Corona lodge of
Pasadena, F. and A. M, and also a
member of the Twilighters and Country
clubs.
He leaves a large circle of friends to
mourn his departure and among his
relatives are the father, mother and
other close relatives.
Funeral services will be held Friday
from one of the local churches.

MUSHET'S ORDER
WARNS POLICE
Auditor Wants New Council to Author.
ize Him to Set Aside Money
Before He Will
Act

Just before Chief of Police Kern re-
tired from the council that body raised
the liquor licenses with the under
standing that the added funds should
go to the increased force in the police
department.
Now City Auditor Mushet comes
forward with the statement that he
has not been authorized to apportion
this money to the police exclusively;
in fact, he demands that he be so au-
thorized by the present council else
the moneys will go into the general
salary fund.
When the 200 saloon licenses were
raised from SIS to 500 month and
the restaurant liquor and wholesale
liquor licenses from $50 to SIS a month
there was a tacit understanding that
the increase was to go to the police.
The increase will amount to 100000
a year. On the strength of getting
that amount over and above the $780,,
600 budget allowed by the council the
first of the fiscal year, the police COM
mission asked the council to add new
patrolmen and officers, which was
done.
Last month the police department
got $4,000 and the fire department
$4,000.
In it's message to the council Mayor
Harper recommended the building of
a stockade. Capt. Auble says stock
ade could be erected for about $5O0O
The citys prisoners could do most Of
the work.
An investigation was started to find
$4,000 for the purpose. City Auditor
Mushet reported that the police de-
partment had exceeded it's allowance
up to January by $SO10.34.
Instead of building stockades he
thought the department ought to be
economizing.

SENDS FAKE MESSAGE;
WINS $1,000
By Associated Press

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Jan. 16.-Aft-
er winning $4,000 in local poolroom on
the result of the races at Oakland and
Ascot, William H. Molden, telegraph
operator in the employ of the Postal
Telegraph company, was yesterday ar
rested on charge of sending false
message. The poolroom agent alleges
that he was party to a successful
wire tapping scheme.
Molden commenced betting with $40
and made three bets which netted him
$780, 1t was later learned by the
manager OF the poolroom that false
returns had been received over their
wire, as two of the horses on which
Molden had cashed bets were not win
ners on the days card,
When arrested Molden declared that
he had done the betting for another
man, stranger, to whom he had
turned over his winnings and from
whom he had received $10O for his
services. He was unable to describe
this man. No other arrests have been
made.
