LEE LET VERDICT.

KEY NOTE Is ANTI-AMERICAN.

THE KEYNOTE OF the abusive
morning-paper outfit is that THEY
DON'T WANT HAWAII AMERICAN
lied and they DON'T WANT
AMERICANS IN HAWAII.
They may explain and trim and
abuse and misrepresent: that is the
sum and substance of the whole cam
paign.
On no other basis is 1t possible to
explain such a monstrous thing as
the editorial commitment of Tuesday
morning, in which the mechanics Of
the Pacific Coast are put on a plane
with thugs, and Honolulu is repre-
sented as not wanting them.
To make the claim that an iota OF
decent Americanism is contained in
such a declaration as but CITIZEN
LABOR FROM CALIFORNIA MIGHT
DO THE COMMUNITY MORE HARM
THAN GOOD" or that a loyal Amer
lean spirit is behind 1t, is utterly
preposterous. Columns of explana-
ton and diverting comment cannot
destroy the Illuminating force of
that phrase alone.
No civilized American is such a
pinhead as to doubt the purpose of a
person or collection of persons who,
when an influx of American mechan-
les Is in prospect, turn to receive
them with sheer and vile abuse and
remark, ITS not the mechanic; it's
the farmer we want"
To pick out few patriotic
phrases from the mass Of abuse is
like seeking a bouquet of roses in a
cesspool.
The morning-paper outfit DON'T
WANT AMERICANS IN HAWAII,
and THEY KNOW IT.
The only honest explanation OF
the attack on the Anne sican mechanic
contained in Tuesdays paper is, that
1t was slip of the pen and by
an inadvertence exposed the real pur-
poses OF the gang that has fought ev-
cry progressive step in popular
American government in these ISL
ands.
They have talked of the benefits
10 be gained from the tourists and
as soon as the tourist campaign
promised to bring some results, they
called the tourists "one-lungers."
They Fave lauded the Portuguese
as iaborers and future American citi-
gems, end Immediately the movement
TO land the Portuguese and Euro
peaT.s in Hawaii was vigorously for
warded, they smirched the European
Immigrant by CHASING him as the
undesirable "lazzaroni."
They have devoted a few perfunct-
DRY phrases to the blessings Hawaii
would derive from an increase in the
population Of middle-class Ameri-
cans, the skilled mechanic, the Amer
lean workman. And the very first
opportunity that offers they give ed
itorial notice that the California me-
chanic is not wanted for Pearl Har-
Dor work-"they might do the COM
munity more harm than good"!!
When they get few small farm
ers of the type they have been dis
cussing for the last year or SO, these
same small farmers on arrival In the
Territory may be expected to receive
volley Of abuse and Stops from the
same old can.
The morning-paper outfit don't
want Americans in Hawaii. They
have fought the Americanization OF
Hawaii's government at every step,
and become especially virulent when
the prospect Of increasing the Amer
lean voting population of the Islands
seems remotely probable.

THE FUTURE KAMEHAMEHA.

Young men and young women go
ing out into the world at this ami
versary period, after years OF careful
preparation, can gain much inspira-
ton for the practical struggles of
life from the career of the great Ka-
mehameha.
The first Kamehameha knew no
such word as fail. We do not know
the Hawaiian word for cant" but
we doubt that 1t was ever found in
the utterances of the Hawaiian lead
er.
1t is not given to the youth Of to.
day to practise the arts Of war
and gain distinction and power by
the great physical prowess for which
the Kamehameha was noted. But
they have daily duties to perform, as
citizens Of a great republic, that call
for an equal degree Of determination
and vigor, patriotism and noble quail
tiles of kindly character.
The future Kamehameha OF Ha-
wall is the man who can unite. not
the Islands under one government,
but bring all the races and national
tiles assembled here into a perfect
union that shall recognize one God,
one country, one flag, be free from
prejudice, and by their intelligence
and sturdy patriotism promote an
harmonious government of, by, and
for the people.
We may hope for many Kameha.

ERTY OWNER DECLINES TO

After months of real estate dick

night reported the public market
ordinance out for passage. 1t pro-
vides for a location on the south

when the market is finally estab-

BREAK
BABY HEARTS
INVEIGLE PARENTS INTO
PLACING INFANTS ON Ex-
HIBITiON AND THEN OFFER
RANK POISON AS PRIZES.

AS a general rule the antics of
the Enakops may be passed over
without adverse criticism, as their
motives in one way and another
tend to the glorification of Spo-
kane. When they put on cap and
bells, as thrillingly exemplified in
the carnival this week, it is largely
for the purpose of raising funds
with which to boost through the
medium of the 100000 club.
But even this can be and has
been carried too far and in behalf
of the public The Press herewith
enters protest. This paper further
demands that the Juvenile court
and all organizations generally In
terested in the welfare of the
young take cognizance Of the pro-
test.
The occasion of complaint is last
nights baby show at the carnival,
AS a display Of infantile humanity
the exhibition was all that could
be asked. The little darlings look
FED forth on the multitude In baby
innocence and enjoyment, nursing
bottles for the time forgotten al.

ed the happy season. The judges
performed their work impartially,
selecting the CASTOR child, Fred
die his name Is, as worthy Of ~
first prize. Freddie cooed appre-
| ciatively and stretched forth HIS
pudgy little fingers for the JGlzs
offered by the Enhkops.
Would you believe that this
prize was nothing more than a plug
of vile, filthy tobacco sarcastically
decked with a blue ribbon?
Imagine If you can the bitter
chagrin and disappointment of the
fond and expectant parents when
poison was placed In the hands OF
their baby as reward for being
the fairest and sweetest morsel Of
infant humanity on the grounds!
Luckily the destructive weed was
snatched away ere the unstained
| lips had been polluted.
The second prize, won by tiny
Terry Callaghan, was nearly as
bad. They gave him Il clay pipe,
luckily not a secondhand one. AS
he is cutting teeth the present was
mot entirely wasted, although sad
ly out of taste. One of the Enak-
ops subsequently stole 1t from him
anyhow, much to the relief OF Mrs.
Callaghan.
The third prize was the only ap-
propriate one of the lot, and 1t was
rather cheap, consisting Of a stick
of candy, which went to Ralph
Rogers. He licked it contentedly
while Freddie cried pitifully for
the plug of tobacco that he inno-
Gently mistook for something fit to
eat, and Terry gnawed faithfully
and hungrily at his clay pipe.
These are the facts of the case.
No apology can be made for the
| Enakops. Their object in tighten
ing the burdens of everyday sol
emnity is commendable, but in this
instance their taste has been
abominable.
Better milestone had been
tied around their necks and they
had beenWdropped into the sea-"

A crematory regulation prohibited
them from operating in opposition
to the department. The mere reg
ulation was not legal, however, so
an ordinance to lake it legal was
offered. The committee decom-
mended it out for passage with an
amendment making it discretionary
with the department whether pri-
vate scavengers should be allowed
to operate. Supt. Merritt said that
If convinced that the work would
be done in a sanitary manner he
would issue permits. A further
amendment was that livery stables
could dispose of refuse if they were
sanitary about it, and restaurants
could have their garbage hauled
by private parties.
