JUDGE PARSONS Of
H|LO ON NATURALIZATION

By inadvertence Judge Parsons
name was omitted from the list of the
speakers who welcomed Secretary Gar
field and his escort to Hilo. Judge
Parsons spoke on the subject of natural
ization. Among other things he said:
Thus far, on this island, the franchise
has often been unwisely exercised.
Campaign arguments against ineffi-
cheney have found little sympathy in
a portion of the electorate, and il is
doubtful if we'll substantiated charges
of malfeasance in office would arouse
a sentiment sufficiently widespread to
assure the defeat for reelection of the
official against whom the charges were
made
ut is not unreasonable to believe that
the Grand Jury has been a strong de-
terrent force. Removed from politics
and selected as Ii is from the most
intelligent of our citizens, it has an
iIlHueuSe upon lOCdl dlldIIS OUT Ol ali
proportion to its powers.
THE outlook is hopeful. The Hawai-
ian leaders have shown a quick appre-
citation of our point of view. Many of
them in office have shown an under
standing of their duties and a willing
ness to perform them even when such
performance has involved unpopula,
rity and it's consequences. Their self
restraint and devotion. to principle
would be commendable in a far older
civilization. Much is to be hoped from
their influence, from education, and
much also is to be hoped from the
naturalization of aliens.
During the eight years which have
passed since annexation there have
been two hundred and eighty-six nat
publications in this circuit. The in
1uence of these new citizens in a total
voting population of sixteen or seven
teen hundred is appreciable. In the not
very distant future we may expect an
accession to our registration lists of a
considerable number of Hawaiian-born
japanese and Chinese"

A BUSY WEEK
IN H|LO TOWN

Hilo Tribune-Mr. w NJ. Giffard,
who purchased one of the Government
mountain lots at 90 miles, Volcano
Road, spent several days at the Vol
cano House last week, and while there
made arrangements for fencing his
land and also for erecting a log house.
A Louisson, the man of one idea, and
that "a protective tariff for coffee"
was in Hilo on Saturday primed with
all the law and facts in the case for
the information of Secretary Garfield.
If devotion to a purpose ever deserved
to be rewarded, it certainly does in
Mr.. Louissons case.
Those engaged in rubber cultivation
will be interested to know that an
expert is now at the Nahiku Rubber
Co.'S plantation on Maui engaged IN
tapping the oldest trees, so that infor-
nation as to results is likely to be
obtained in the near future. There
are about 5000 trees on this plantation
which are old enough to tap.
L. A Thurston, who had charge of
the Garfield party on their tour of this
island, was suffering from a severe
cold on his arrival here, which grew
so much worse after the Volcano trip
that he was obliged to leave the party
at Hilo and RETURN by the Mauna Kea.
His place with the party was taken
by F. B. McStocker.
United States District Attorney
Breckons and the Rev Thwing, the
anti-boxer of Honolulu, were both ar
rivals in Hilo by the Mauna Kea, but
where the ring is, and when the bout
is to take place is as yet secret, on
account of the irksome provisions of
Section S00s of the Revised Laws of
Hawaii.
Sunday night the Foreign church
was crowded with an interested audi
ence to hear Rev. W. D. Westervelt
speak on the Missions of Hawaii"
Mr.. Westervelt spoke for over an hour
and held the attention of all to the
last. His address was well illustrated
by wide selection of stereopticon
pictures.

BUILDING THE CATTERY
ON QUARANTINE ISLAND

However facetious the man on the
street may be over the Territorial eat
terry, for the rearing, of official felines
as rat catehers, there is nothing funny
about it so far as the Board of Health
members are concerned. 1t is health
measure recommended by DR.. Koch and
being carried out by DR.. Golfer.
Already pair of eats of selected
breed December (k) and June (w), are
in the possession of the Board of
Health, being kept in little home of
their own behind the. morgue. These
quarters are only temporary, however,
as a building with all the modern con-
veniences is to be built for this pair of
cats and many others on Quarantine
Island, where they may devote them
selves to the rat determination ques-
ton and bring up their children in the
way they should 60 after the flea dis
tributor.
There have been a large number of
good mousers and ratters offered to the
Board of Health, and as soon as the
cattery is built these will be officially
adopted into the Territorial service.
1t is the hope of the Board of Health
members to have the next Legislature
pass law making it highly criminal
offense to kill any eat, making them in
Honolulu as immune from target guns
as the turkey buzzards are in the cities
of the South.
In ancient Egypt the cat was sa-
cred animal, so there is a precedent for
a law of this kind.

MINISTER'S
WORDS OF ADVICE

Speaking to the representative of the
Hawaii Shinpo, Minister Arakawa.
who passed through here on the Tenyo
Maru, said that he found the condition
of the japanese laborers very salts
factory, the men, in his opinion, being
well cared for. He stated that the
conditions here, as compared with
those in Mexico, where he is now go
ing, are far more favorable to the
japanese, and he advised his country
men, through the papers, to be peace
full and Industrious and to remain
where they are.
r His advice to the Japanese press was
to use the utmost care in avoiding any
thing that may lead to misunderstand-
ing between them and the American
people. He said particularly that there
is no anti-Japanese feeling on the
mainland, it being only an economical
question that is being agitated. The
agitation is against cheap labor and
does not involve any national issue.
For very good example, he said, all
japanese except the laboring class are
welcomed in any part of the United
States, and are treated with the same
courtesy as all other foreigners. He
said that there is no national issue be-
tween Japan and America, and the
sensational news that appear in news
papers are fabrications. He asked the
japanese papers not to regard any
such economic agitations as appeared
in the Western States, as anti-Japa-
nese movements, these being more
anti-cheap labor questions.
AS to the situation of the Japanese
labor in Hawaii, he entertained rather
optimistic views, relying on the theory
of the survival of the fittest. He said
in part that the Japanese have sup
piled labor for the sugar industry,
which is the mainstay of the islands,
and that he does not believe that as
long as his countrymen continue to
contribute their labor in a peaceful and
manner toward the fur
therance of the interests of the islands,
they will be forsaken by the capital
lists. 4
The emigration of Japanese to Mex
leo was stopped as soon as the gov
eminent found the Misrepresentation
of emigration companies, and there
will be no more japanese going there,
as Japan never wishes to irritate Wash
ington with labor questions.

LAND MEMORIAL
To GARFIELD

Those who a week ago presented
Secretary Garfield with protest
against the inadequacies of the Ha.
waiian public land laws. and against
the abuses and inequalities which have
grown up under them. yesterday pre-
scented a memorial of what they be-
lieved would correct or tend to correct
the abuses which are admitted This
was presented in response to the Sec
retary's suggestion for something con-
crete, constructive, and not destruc-
tive, in criticism.
The important and perhaps novel
feature of the proposals presented to
the Secretary is designed to prevent
the public lands from being monop-
olized, as President Roosevelt ex-
pressed it, into "a region of large es>
tates titled by cheap labor" but as he
expressed the aim should be, into a
healthy American community of men
who themselves till the farms they
own"
The proposal is therefore that public
lands leased or given away in home
steads shall always retain their home-
stead quality. and as they are given
only to American citizens shall be held
and cultivated only by American citi-
zens
by this means" the memorial pro-
ceeds. ''all the remaining public lands
will be dedicated forever to American
labor, and cannot be used for the ex-
ploitation of cheap alien labor"

a part or all of their course in the
East if they had opportunity for study
here.
1 received a pamphlet the other day
for the library which had the account
of the inaugural of DR.. Beckwith. DR..
Beckwith devoted his time to arguing
why we should have a college here in
Hawaii The same reasons hold true
today that We're put forward then. 1t
is not enough to recount the benefits;
it is necessary to do a good deal more.
What are the alumni going to do
about these? Are you going to sup
port the policy of 'PunahOu, the best
school?"' Are you going to help US
grow gradually towards the goal of a
real college, so emphatically pro-
nounced desirable by DIR. Beckwith 80
years ago and which is no nearer of
realization today than it was then?
If so, how soon are you going to sup
port it. I believe that a campaign
among the alumni would bring large
financial returns. We have just APP
pealed to the General Education Board
for funds. They at once came back
at us with the question, what are you
going to do at home? We need help;
we can't expect to get it from abroad
until we can make some showing at
home.
This meeting could do nothing bet
ter than to appoint a committee or
instruct its officers to cooperate with
the corporation in raising funds for
the immediate needs of the institution
which we love so well.

difficult for me to attend to them
while oppressed with suffering. The
way in which I found relief eventually
was by using Doan's Backache Kidney
Pills, procured at the HOLSTER Drug

1t is not yet too late to caponize.

month. .....
All the old surplus stock should
row be marketed. ....
There is nothing better for the
poultry during hot weather than
charcoal.
Keep up the fresh water supply;
warm water is nsuseating to the

Add hnseed-meal to the soft feed,
and place some rusty iron in the
drinking vessels.
Queer that some folks never think
Of providing shade for their hens in
hot weather.
Save some OF the best young hens
fer breeding purposes. Eggs from
thrifty two-year-old hens are pretty
sure to hatch.
Poultry manure is worth not less
than $12 ton. But if you store
1t where it will get wet, it will not
be worth much of anything.
You might about as Well throw your
your hen manure into the creek as
TO mix 1t with ashes or lime. Peat
or mulch is the best to use as an alb
Scrbent.
In feeding fowls it is best to
scatter all grain well. If this is not
done the stronger and more pugna-
cious fowls will drive the more timid
and weaker ones away from the
feed, and the latter will not get their
full share. ..
Give the hens a liberal amount of
food and care from now on until
they have gone through the ex-
haustive process of growing new
feathers They surely deserve the
very best care instead of the neg
lect which is often their portion.
