FURTHER CARE TO
PREVENT ACCIDENTS
Hartman Lines Adopt Most
Perfect System of Inspec-
ton of Watches.

The watch inspection system on the
Hartman lines has passed from the dl-
rect supervision of the officials of the
roads into the care of Webb c. Ball,
general time inspector of most of the
great railroad systems of the country.
This is done so that the inspection Of
watches may be moro thorough and as
near perfect as human limitations Will
permit. Under the Ball system
periodical reports are made to the gen
eral manager and general superntend-
ent as to the condition of the time
pieces. The Ball officials keep n care
fUl record of all watches inspected, the
containing the record of inspection,
which he must present semi monthly
TO the local watch Inspector, who will
enter the record of watch comparisons
thereon. Standard clocks will be To-
Gated at the terminals Of the Oregon
Short Line, Southern Pacific and other
roads, and those clocks only will be
Elaborate rules are provided for the
care and inspection OF watches and
timepieces given for use while the en-
ployees' own chronometer is being
cleaned or adjusted must be of q spe.
cial kind and absolutely reliable. All
watches must be IN such condition
at all times as TO enable them to run
within a variation of thirty seconds
per week,
The purpose of this care as to Off
cial timepieces Is, of course, the
precaution against accidents from de
fective watches, question that arose
in the recent accident on the Rio
Grande at Jordan Narrows; and any
controversy that should arise can, in
large part, be determined by the OIL
cial record kept under the Ball system.

system, is at present IN the city, as

FREE CAR RIDES.

Free street-car transportation for
the men of the Fleet is the most pop
ular proposition that the Fleet Com
mlttee has ever presented to the peo-
pie of the town.
Citizens and firms who were the
largest contributors to the entertain
ment fund have been the first to urge
that the needed money for this pur-
pose shall be appropriated.
The people of Honolulu want the
men OF the Fleet to enjoy themselves.
They want them to have all there Is
to be had, within reason, for nothing,
They want the Men to be sure of
good time. The officers will have am
pie private entertainment IL the gen.
eral entertainment is not enough.
The Admiral has said and everyone
has reported that the free car-rides
are most appreciated by the enlisted
men.
Supply the funds and open the
doors wide, whether We have sixteen
battleships or one.

So far there IL no reason for concern
In regard to the crops; on the con-

little change, and very quiet sum-

pulsory cut-down in expenses. Then
dividends began to decline, and now
the companies find themselves in a
somewhat serious dilemma, out OF
which there are only two ways OF es-
cape, either recovery in earnings
through business improvement, or a
still further retrenchment in ex-
penses. Should the latter be neces-
sary, II means cut-down in wages,
or a withdrawal of the advances
granted to labor in 1906 and 1907.
1t is to be hoped such step will not
be necessary, and that a satisfactory
solution will be found in business re-
vival. There has been serious talk of
an advance in freight rates, but this
would be unwise policy; since 1t
would check rather than stimulate
traffic, and revive public hostility to
railroads, which after having done
sufficient harm is now really abating.
The most favorable feature in the
railroad situation is that the number

GOVERNOR FREAR'S LAND POLICY

The last man In the Territory to
Use his newly outlined land policy as
a weapon for taking a slap at the
European immigrant would be Gov
ernor Frear.
That his very commendable scheme
should be taken as such a cudgel is
ridiculous In the extreme. 1t serves
NO other purpose than to furnish
campaign material for mainland enc
mics Of Hawaii who have been active
in Congress and will continue to be
active in Congress to accomplish the
defeat of the Administration policy
In these Islands.
4. Governor Frear's homesteading
proposal as it appears on paper bears
every promise to serving the end for
which 1t has been framed--an easy
way for the honest homesteader and
complete blockade for the land
Spectator.
One of the most commendable fea-
lures of the Governors plan is his
wiping out of the interest charge
made against the homesteader. There
is every reason why the man who
seeks to make home for himself by
developing land which he cultivates
should not be loaded down with an
interest charge as well as his pur-
chase price. The commonwealth will
reap a splendid profit from the in
dustry of the homebuilder and his
way should be made as easy as pos
sible.
The ten-year period for obtaining
title D the land will not work a
hardship on the man who goes upon
the land to establish a home. II he
does not wish to be permanent set
tier, he is not wanted. The Territory
has had enough OF the law-dodger.

chief aim is to get possession OF land
In order to make turn" and get
out of the country, or become an alb
sentee landlord as the chief benefi-
ciary Of an incorporated Small farm"
worked by gang-labor.
The proof of the pudding is the
eating. The scheme looks all right.
Now back 1t up with Action, so that
the citizens OF this Territory and
those attracted from abroad may
make their start.
Meanwhile the campaign for the
European immigrant will move stead
fly forward. The laboring element
of the Islands will become better bal
anced. The day Of servile labor will
pass away, and the more ambitious OF
the new arrivals will speedily obtain
independent homes.
There will be an end OF the false
policy of making loud noise regard
Ing the Americanizing that is going
on when as a matter OF fact secret
and continuous duplication Of the I'M

estate is being brought about, to the
detriment of all things American.

en- in conjunction with the known
Federal and Territorial Administra-
tion determination to obtain the Eu-
ropean immigrant for the Islands, is
thoroughly honest.

LITTLEFIELD SCORES

CHICAGO, H., June 20. Con-
gresham Charles L. Littlefield, whom
the Administration saved from defeat
at the last election in Maine, held
President Roosevelt up to ridicule
and scorn today in speech before
the Illinois State Bar Association, at
the convention in the Chicago Beach
Hotel. His topic was THE Sherman
Antitrust Act and Its Proposed
Amendment"
The 200 or more members of the
association present leaned forward
in surprise to listen when Congress-
man Littlefeld unlimbered his bat
teries on the President. The first in
dication Of 1t came when he referred
to Senator Lodges assertion at the
Republican National Convention that
Roosevelt enforced antitrust laws"

from Maine, that this enforcement
has been matter of proclamation
