Hawaii JAPS ATTEND AMERICAN SCHOOLS
IN GREATER NUMBERS THAN WHITES

children now crowding into our schools
have been born under the American
flag. When these reach maturity they
will have the right of claiming Ameri-
can citizenship. 1t is therefore most
important that they should have full
opportunity of becoming equipped with
the knowledge and habits OF thought
requisite to good American citizenship.
Apart from that consideration it must
be conceded that it is the inalienable
privilege of every child under protec-
ton of the flag to enjoy the benefits of
that public school system which is one
Of the chief glories of the American
commonwealth, and moreover Hawaii
took as an ideal long before admission
and continues, as a part of the union,
with best endeaYors to maintain"

terror, G. r. Carter, governor of Ha-
waii, calls attention to marked falling
of in the attendance of Hawaiian and
American children at the public schools
and a corresponding increase in the
attendance of Japanese children, but
he does not hold the latter circum-
stances responsible for the former.
Speaking of the Japanese, he says:
There is nothing to deplore in the
increase Of Japanese children. The.
Japanese are here probably in large
proportion to remain. Their natural
increase has been very great, and, as
eight years have elapsed since annexa-
ton, large number of the Japanese

So Says Mayor Schmitz of Frisco in
Referring to Published Charges.
Associated Press to The Evening Times.
San Francisco, March 3O.-Mayor
Schmitz in statement to the Associ-
ated Press denies published charges
that the prosecution has evidence that
Schmitz profited to the extent of not
less than $4,000 from participation in
the "boodling" operations now being
investigated by the grand jury.
These charges" he said, ARE mali
ciously false and as soon as am af-
forded the legal opportunity l shall
prove them to be So"
He declared himself anxious for q
speedy trial, but said it was unfair
that he should be brought to trial be-
fore any judge in this city and county,
all of whom, he alleged, are biased.
He declared it outrageous that he
should be kept for four months under
cloud with the prospect that the trial
will be further delayed.
The mayor says this Is no time for
libel suits, but when he has been tried
and judged by a jury he will give no
quarter. He says his annual income
Is $4,000; that he Is not high liver,
but that he has not neglected opportu-
mites for investment. He says that he
has never made improper use of these
investments, and will show in court
where he got every penny since he
has been mayor and what he did with

obtained to a United States attorney
for prosecution"
This order, which is almost as long
and involved as hypothetical ques-
ton, followed communication from
President Roosevelt to Mr.. Hitchcock,
in which he wrote:
Year in and year out you and l
have been besought by men interested
in stock growing to permit the fences
to stay up for another six months or
another year on the ground of great
damage certain to be done by taking
them down. Many of the men making
these requests are entirely honest
men, whose requests it would be in
the interest of the community to grant
were it legally possible to do so, but
1t Is quite impossible permanently to
permit such an arrangement. There
must be some adequate provision of
law If there is to be satisfactory So
luton of this problem, and in default
OF this provision the present faulty
law must be enforced"

that it will certainly be feature of

"Mrs. Warren" on the Road.
Despite the caustic criticism of the

Mrs. Warren's Profession" continues
to be a drawing card at the Manhattan

six weeks allotted to it, when the COM
pany will go to Chicago for a spring

of the famous Shaw drama, has organ
lied western company to produce

drama is apparently not to be verified.
