Forbidden by the Laws of the
United States

The Ministerial Union of this city
held its regular meeting yesterday.
1t was unanimously voted, that the
Ministerial Union of Honolulu endorse
the actions of Mr.. Thwing, who has
been working on q special committee
IN his presenting d petition on the en-
forcement of the - Edmunds Act' to
the Z. s. District Attorney, also In
his sending letters to the President of
the United States, to the U. S. Attor-
ney General and to the President of
the Woman S Christian Temperance
Union of America.
There were eight members of the
Union present who clearly remembered
that Mr.. Pinkham, in reply to dl-
rect question, admitted before this
body that he had reports from over
100 persons who are carrying on this
business at lwilei.
There were eleven members present
who remembered that Mr.. Pinkham had
stated that he had taken his unlawful
action, as he {Mr. Pinkham) felt it
was for the best interests of the public
health.
The Governor having asked the Min
isterial Association for proof of Pink
hams Illegal activities, he having
formally denied them, the following
sworn statement was made:
Honolulu. T. H., April 6, 1908.
To the Honorable Governor of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii
Dear Sir: l beg to present herewith
a statement of the cooperation of the
Board of Health affirmed
In regard to charges made by the
committee of the Civic Federation
against Mr. Pinlham, that he, as rep
resenting the Board of Health, has been
in cooperation with an illegal business
carried on in this city, wish to say:
l. / saw Chief Taylor personally
He said: There is an arrangement
between the Board of Health and the
Police Department, in regard to certain
examinations. Persons not having
physicians certificates are not allowed
to carry on their business in this
place. -
2. I saw Mr.. Iaukea and he said:

81 was not in favor of the present
plan of examinations, but it was pro
posed to me by the President of the
Board of Health, who thought it best
for the public health.''
g. Mr.. Pinkham stated before g
meeting of the Ministerial Union, that
he had reports from one hundred and
one (l0D persons who were conduct
ing this unlawful business at Iwilei.
4. | have seen the report book, kept
by regular agent of the Board, who

to inspect in the matter of these ex-
aminations.
The above statements are correct ac-
cording to my knowledge and belief

The above was sworn before a notary
public, and also supported by written
statements by Mr.. Taylor, Mr.. Iaukea,
and vote, as to a statement of Mr.
Plnkham before the Ministerial Union
of Honolulu, by members of that body
Honolulu, T. H, April 6, 1908.
To the Honorable Governor of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii.
Dear Sir: / beg to present herewith
a statement of the cooperation of the
Board of Health denied:
/. The President of the Board of
Health has, before his own Board, de-
MED this cooperation. He said: 'tThe
unsubstantial charges of cooperation
may arise from morbid
long-distanee imagination.
,. He said that the examinations
We're voluntarily reported, by private
physicians, to the Board, and when
directly asked if any agent of the
Board was appointed to look. after the
matter of these reports and examina-
tions, he replied: "No.''
3. When I asked him personally of
the matter he said he was only acting
according to Section 1904 of the Re
vised Laws.
For man in his position to take
such double stand. and to be unable.
or unwilling, to give an honest answer
to a matter of such Importance, is, I
think, inexcusable, and demands atten-
tion.
The above statements are correct ac-
eording to my knowledge and belief.

In a nice but decided way, Presi-
dent L. E. Pinkham of the Board of
Health was sat on by the other men,
bers of the board at special
meeting yesterday afternoon, his plans
regarding the boards attitude towards
in law and useless in practical effects,
and a resolution carried that he call
off his inspectors and let the matter
strictly alone in the future. To his
face he was accused by two persons
present of double dealing, DR.. Waysen

Thwing stating that he had been
double faced all through the agitation
Pinkham's attitude was defended by
Fred Smith warmly, who stated that
he should be commended and not con-

Hemenway, who said little. but who
voted against a resolution introduced
by DR.. Wayson that the present semi
official recognition of Iwilei be
stopped. DR.. Baldwin voted for and
seconded the resolution, but made a
statement generating Pinkham from
blame in the matter and declaring
that he was not in favor of the mud

Pinkham.
All through the meeting Pinkham
was mad, but restrained himself from

HAWAII FISH
BILL FAVORED
----~
The Establishment of BIOLOGICAL
Station Here Very
important.

Congressman Wilson of Illinois, from
the Committee Of Merchant Marine and
Fisheries, submitted the following, on
March II, concerning Delegate Kuhio's
fish culture and biological station bill:
The Committee on the Merchant Ma
rine and Fisheries, to whom was re-
ferred the bill (H. r. 1929 providing
for a f1sh-cultural and biological sta
ton in the Territory of Hawaii, having
had the same under consideration, rec
ommend that the bill do pass without
amendment.
For generations past, fish have con-
stituted one of the few staples of food
of the Hawaiian people, and the main
tenanee of the supply is a highly i'm
portant factor in Hawaiian life.
Very extensive fish ponds have been
inclosed for the better propagation and
growth of certain varieties of food fish.
Some of these large ponds are govern
ment property, but the majority are
private holdings. In addition there are
certain bays and reefs where food fish
have their habitat, whose multiplication
could be greatly increased.
There is probably no place in the
United States where fish-cultural and
biological station could be more advan-
tageously located than in Hawaii.
The bill stipulates that the Territory
of Hawaii shall provide, free of cost
to the United States, the necessary land
and water rights required for the
equipment of such a station.
The Commissioner of Fisheries rec
ommends the passage of this bill in the
following letter. which is made a part
of this report;
Department of Commerce and Labor,
Bureau of Fisheries,
washington, February 4, 1908.
@Sir: Replying to your letter of Feb
ruary 8, inciosing bill Fl. r. 1926. To
establish a fish-cultural and biological
station in the Territory of Hawaii and
asking for a report thereon, I have the
honor to say that the establishment of
a biological station in tropical waters
is of great Importance for the following
reasons:
"The marine life, it's protection, and
the climatic conditions are so varied
and different in the different sections
of our country that a thorough and
complete knowledge thereof is of the
utmost Importance for the development
Of the fishery industries.
''The propagation of the muliet, it is
believed, can be successfully carried on
at the proposed station, and quite like
ly the carangoids, the oio and the ava
can also be successfully propagated. 1t
is also believed that much can be done
toward developing methods for the uti-
lization of the edible seaweeds. It is
therefore recommended that the bill do
pass. Respectfully,
GEORGE NJ. BOWERS,
GCe1r, N, icciopnrp
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-04-07

The bill authorizes the Secretary of
Commerce and Labor to establish such
a station on this island, at a point to
be selected by him, providing the Ter
ritory transfers free the land, and water
rights, upon which such buildings,
wharves and other structures as may
be necessary can be erected, apprcpri-
