KAWA|AHAO CEMETERY
SHOULD NOT Be CLOSED
Honolulu, February. 1908.

honolulu, FEBRUARY, 1908.
Editor Advertiser: A statement APP
peared in print a short time ago in
effect that the Kawaiahao cemetery
is overcrowded, unsanitary, and that
some of the bodies when inferred have
to go into the water; also that this
burial place ought to be abolished. The
foregoing statement surprised me, for
an acquaintance with the locality ever
since my boyhood made me feel that
the writer had been misinformed.
Therefore, for the sake of assurance,
I consulted with Rev. Henry Parker,
Mr.. Cleghorn, and then the grave
digger, with the following result.
which, I think, is a statement of fact:
1.-The cemetery has as yet unoccu-
pied space for probably somewhere be-
tween 100 and 200 bodies.
1.-THE graves are dug the regula-
itfon depth of six feet; and as this
denth is still some distance from water
in any part of the enclosure, no bodies
ever are immersed, nor is there any
r evidence Oh IulS having OcSh OOiC IL
this cemetery.
III-The nature of the soil is partly
earth and partly black sand, so that
the surroundings of the body are per-
fectly dry and porous, which is the
best condition possible (outside of ere
mation) for the sanitary disposal OF
/ the dead.
/ Iv-As to the adjustment of this
cemetery as a burial place, will say
that the foremost incentive to action
I should be reason, but sentiment has its
value. There is a strong sentiment on
the part of interested Hawaiians that
I the Kawaiahao cemetery should not
! be closed, and it seems to me that
this is a case where they have on
their side, both reason and sentiment.
/ 1t. therefore, seems to me that the
| time for such action has not yet ar
rivad V. T. Y.

The society event of the season, the
University Club ball, is thing of the
past, to be remembered as a blaze of
lights. for the hundreds of dainty cos

superb hospitality. The event on Fri

make it SO. The decorations of the
clubhouse and grounds and those of
the annexed portion of the Royal Ha-
waiian Hotel were beautiful and work
ed out in all the details OF the scheme

A ''boss' is an individual who
exercises the power to order en-
ployes about and urge them on
without respecting them as factors
OF human society. He worries and
fortunes them, and then dis
charges them if they protest. His
manner and methods are harsh.
cruel and disrespectful. The term
has been handed down from slay-
cry. The ''boss'' is now known
only as a driver of labor where
non unionism exists. When labor
becomes organized the "boss'' is
transformed into a respectful fore
man or superintendent.

The trades union movement is
between two fires: greed on one
side and anarchy on the other.
The labor movement as it con-
fronts the people of this country
today is the NEUTRAL and necessary
product of enlightened human pro-
gress. 1t wrongs no man, on the
contrary uplifts every man. Its
aim is to establish justice in the
earth, by the adjustment of every
interest that is out Of alignment
with every other interest. It seeks
to save capital from being DESTROY
ed by the cankerous worm of
avarice and seeks to protect society
from the red hand of anarchy.
For that reason it is the target of
both.

Why does an employing corpor-
alton oppose the labor union Is
1T because the management. is I'M
able to fix the hours of labor and
the wage rate without consulting
the employees? That appears to
be the only objection. 1t is GER
talnty that the management excr-
clses that prerogative where no
labor union exists. In such cases
the employees work absolutely as
the management pleases that they
shall work, and for such wages as
the management pleases to pay
them. How can such a condition
be changed! Only through the
formation ofa labor union. Then
we readily see why the unions is
opposed.

To talk about the improvement

To talk about the Improvement
OF your job is union agitation. If
you suggest to your fellow-em-
ployes that the job should pay
better wages you are making your
self obnoxious to the employing
management. If you are working
for an 'open shop' or union
management, you'll get fired.
There will be no help for it. You
won't even be told what you are
discharged for, unless the manage
ment wishes to make an example
of you before other employees.
