center of all trouble of the present
day, and China furnishes the chief
breeding-spot of international fric-
tion of this character.
Having schemed out a method for
the preservation of China's integrity
and the open door, America and ia
pan have little need to lie awake
nights over the maltreatment of their
respective citizens within the con-
fines of the others territory.
II Japan's Merchants are selling
their goods unhampercd In China.
Japan children, even in separate
schools in San Francisco, need not
necessarily be cause for lighting the
beacons of war at home. From this
1t is not to be inferred that either
Japan or America has made any sac
rifice of national self-respect in the
treatment of their citizens within
the respective borders of the contract
ing nations.
Finally, the conference with q
view to Joint action when dealing
with a third Power appears to be as
near an approach to a triple alliance
ms is possible when America, a nation
of no entangling alliances, is involv-
ed.
II is not probable that Japan took
this step without the sanction of
Great Britain. The whole movement
in fact has unquestionably gone for
ward under the intimate counsel and
knowledge of the British Foreign Of
flee. The result may indeed be the
preservation of China and the peace
of the Pacific through Japan, advised
and urged by the combined English
speaking nations.
As no mention is made in the dis,
| patches of the immigration question
we may suppose that 1t remains in It's
present status. Japan, while not ad-
hitting the right of any nation to
exclude her citizens, and America not
pressing that issue, refuses passports
tor her people to go to countries
where they are not wanted, or their
immigration in large numbers would
tend to serious conflict

THE SITE QUESTION.

Business leaders and the people
are settling down to the fight for
the public-building site In a style
that breeds confidence in their sue
cess.
1t seems highly improbable that
the Government will, through Con-
gress, consummate the exchange of
the Federal-building sites in the face
of such widespread and positive oppo-
sition.
After the fireworks have been elm
mated, the proposition comes down to
the bedrock fact that the people are
steadfast In their support OF the
downtown site. If the Government
intends to consider the views of tho
great majority in the city, Il must
allow the Mahuka site to remain as
the location for the Federal building.
On the other hand, should the Gov
eminent be Of the opinion that our
people do not know what is best for
them. the exchange will probably be
carried to completion.
In view of the general principles of
American government, II would be
extraordinary II the latter position
were taken.

industries, and new enterprises, is an
enemy of the Islands. He is In iden-
tically the same boat with the sal
aried man whose entire income is de-
rived from Honolulu business but
who makes all possible purchases in
other markets.
The big man and the little man
who suck their sustenance and their
surplus from the prosperity of this
community only that IL may benefit
another, far away and therefore at
tractive, are undesirable and danger
Gus to further progress.
They breed lack of loyalty that
sooner or later communicates itself
to the outsider.
Men who think no more of their
own town than to make It the me-
dunn for creating surplus to spend
elsewhere are enemies of the COM
mon good, though they may sit in
the seats with the first citizens.
In this connection. Honolulu In
the days or its prosperity has unques-
tionably acquired some bad commu-
nifty habits, from which 1t should be
rid. Once free. the numerical force
of prosperity's beneficiaries will be
doubled without reaching the dan
gerous area Of even the fringe of a
boom.
During the last few years we have
seen quite few citizens of Honolulu
looking askance at "cheap stocks"
that represent established enter
prises and scorning real estate, but
sending their savings abroad to be
sunk in veritable holes in the ground
made to look well on paper.
Tho worst-watered stock Hawaii
ever produced, and now dividendless,
would be a saviug-bank investment

holes into which Honolulu dollars

HONOLULU PROSPECTS BRIGHTEST.

nize the home merchant.

Among all the good business doc
trines preached in these Islands there
is none, which all can practise, of
more permanent value.
The year of prosperity this Terri
tory has enjoyed, and the great
amount of development to be carried
on in the next few years by the Fed
eral Government, lead mainlanders to
look upon the Territory of Hawaii
and the City of Honolulu as among
the most favored spots on earth for
expansion and prosperity in every

More than one level-haaded man
believes that by playing the conserv-
alive role so vigorously Honolulu Is
actually retarding development.
There is more truth than poetry in
this view.
Conservatism cuts in as many di-
rections as boom, when it is played
beyond the limit.

If the latest agreement between
America and Japan means anything,
1t is as perfect guarantee of the
peace of the Pacific and untrammeled
development of commercial opportu-
mites as it is possible to obtain in
this age and generation.
America and Japan are the only
nations that can today seriously dis
turb the Pacific. Agreed on any
project, no nation would hastily rush
in to dispute their dictum.
1t is safe to assume that the an
nouncement from Washington is the
contamination of the months of dip
lomatic negotiations that have occu-
pied the Foreign Offices at Washing
ton and Toxic since the public-school
issue in San Francisco brought about
state of affairs fraught with the
most serious possibilities.
When the present unwritten his
tory is given the public we shall
know to what extent the peace of the
Pacific has been endangered in the
days when war and rumors of war
were rife; what part the Fleet played
in the working out of world-prob-
lens; from what follies the Govern
ment of Japan has withheld a natur-
ally eXcitable people; how far Great
Britain has aided; whether after all
the center of the whole trouble has
not been in Pekin, not Toxic.
This will be an interesting story.
or the immediate practical fact there
is not the slightest doubt.
The world need not appeal to its
imagination to be convinced that a
great victory has been gained for
American diplomacy, and We must
share the credit of great self-control
equally with Japan.
For this Territory, the conclusions
of the two nations that must domi-
nate the Pacific are of the greatest
moment.
The cablegram speaks first of the
agreement regarding the possessions
in the Pacific. This undoubtedly
means recognition of the present
status and permanent spheres of in
fuence. This puts our Territory out
eide the range of elements reckoned
in the danger zone, without in any
way reducing its importance as an
outpost.
In the field of world politics the
confirmation of the integrity of China
and a way to settlement of CONNER
cial complications is most far-reach-
ing. Commercial competition is the

The Limit IN
FREAK BILLS

Whenever any State has enough
fans to adopt the prohibition fad
there is certain to ensue crop OF
freak bills regulating the habits of
men and women in every possible d.
rectiop. The adoption Of prohibition
is a sure indication that the cranks
are in the lead or in such prominence
as temporarily, at least, to dominate
the legislation of the State.
Such being the case, It is not sur
prising that Colonel Glenn. p patri-
otto statesman of prohibition-riddcn
Georgia, should introduce n bill to
protect poor, guileless man from the
wiles of woman, which have been in
evidence ever since the days Of Moth
err Eve. The only wonder is the ex-
cess OF freakiness in the bill, which
makes It notable in the annals of
such legislation.
The bill provides that II any wom-
an, maid or widow shall betray into
matrimony--fhark that phrase. Ia
dies,-any unsuspecting male subject
Of Georgia by scents, paints, powder
or perfume, cosmetics. artificial
teeth, false hair, iron stays, corsets,
hoops, or AiSh-heeled shoes, low-cut
waists, lingerie, lace. yariegatcd
dropstitch, or rainbow hosiery, the
marriage shall be null and void.
1t Is a wonder that Glenn omitted
"rats1 in the hair. which are now so
commonly WORN to induce the male
sex to believe the wearer has a BUSH
ell of hirsute adornment on her era
mum. In this, II should be carefully
noted, however, that we speak only
on common report and not on person
al knowledge.
We respectfully suggest that Glenn
introduce II as an amendment to his
bill to make IL more sweeping and
guard the man from one insidious
form of beguilement.
Such bill. Ne regret to inform
the chivalrous Colonel, has about as
much chance OF enforcement, should
Il become a law. as the ordinary
brand of prohibition law, including
that of his own State.
The stats in their courses would
fight against 1t. but what is more to
the purpose, human nature-esps-
cially the feminine part OF 1t -
would run counter to 1t. 1t is the
business OF every woman to get mar
ried and man demands beauty. Ma
ture is not equal In her gifts. Some
women have more than their proper
share OF beauty and some less, SO the
latter class, a husband to bully being
a necessity, must resort to the arti-
fetal adornment forbidden in this
bill to make their catch. Like the
spider to the fly. men have to walk
into the parlor trap.
The personal liberty Of women in
cludes the right to wear the thin
pad, self-reducing strap from the over
plump, the pallid paint, and twists,
coils, and coronet braids for the
hairless, in short. all the wiles and
arts forbidden by Glenn's freak bill.
1t would be well also for Mr..
Glenn to note that some men. too,
are guilty of the same practices rs
women In false adornment. al

tributed pro bono publico and not
from motives of self-intercst. The
phrascology in this connection should
be guarded.
Waterhouse said that his firm had
subscribed, and yet, as IL had prop
erty near the Irwin site. from selfish
motives 1t would prefer that site.
Smith called attention to the fact
tina subscriptions had been solicited
from property-owners in general,
many owning non-adjacent property,
1t being argued that the opening of
a new street would be a general ben
eft.
Dohrmann said that the report had
three features, n resolution, a postal
vote recommendation, and an outline
on which the memorial might be for
INFLATED. He suggested that these
three features be taken up separate
ly, namely: that the two first matters
be voted on, and that the third mat
ter be referred back to the commit
tee. He thought that Macfarlane was
right to advise caution. but IL It
were found that there were a moral
obligation this should be pointed out.
'Dohrmann said further that the
strongest argument for the change
was that civic center would re-
suit. This he did not think would
follow. The Opera House looked like
a barn, and there were other insight
ly buildings there. This should be
pointed out to the people at Wash
ington, as well as the fact that the
Mahuka site was already surrounded
by fine buildings. Such argument
would take the main point away from
those backing the Irw&n site.
Paris suggested to leave the whole
matter in the hands of the commit
tee.
| Won Hamm moved to adopt the
resolution contained in the report.
Macfarlane seconded, and the motion
carried unanimously.
Smith said he thought the postal
card vote idea was good one. The
charge had been made that the
meeting at the Young Hotel was not
a representative one. Postals could
be sent to all users of the postoiIicc.
and the answers could be sorted ana
sent to the Secretary of the Treas
ury.
Smith said further that antago-
nism by Hawaii to admission OF Phil
ippine sugar had not had good re-
suits, and this should be warning
to refrain from such in this case.
Macfarlane moved to employ the
postal-card vote.
Smith said the postals would be
sent to all nationalities. The motion
carried. About thousand votes will
be taken.
