CONSIDER THE FRANCHISE

Last week this paper commented at length on the proposed water works for which the Grand Canyon Electric Light and Power Com pany is asking permission to in stall. This week, though some what crowded for space, we do no' hesitate to devote a column to this most important subject, because it is plainly to be seen that those who want to see the town take q step forward will have to use all the influence at their command to get favora ble results at the com ing special election.
 So far as we have been able tt learn there ha. been comparativel, little chronic knocking on ths proposition, and everything looks favorable. However, that does not mean that the proposition will carry at the polls.
 It is to be most sincerely hoped that the voters of this town vii place the stamp of approval or the Grand Canyon Electric Ligh' and Power Company's proposition. No one will deny that the crying need of the town is an ample water supply. The Grand Canyon Flee tric Light and Power Company is asking for permission to suppl, this want, and we cannot see why this up to date community should vote to keep supply and demand separated.
 There are only two ways in which municipality can procure waterworks system. One way is for the municipality to bond itself in a sufficient sum to construct the system; the other is to grant some individual, company or corpora ton a franchise-a permit to con- struct, operate and maintain the system for profit. AS the plan to bond the city does not seem to meet with approval, there is no alternative but to grant someone franchise, if the town is to have a water system.
 The reception given Fred Smiths request for a franchise at the cleo ton last May was not very en- couraging. Despite this fact the Grand Canyon Electric Light and Power Company has mustered ur sufficient courage to ask for fran chise, and it must be admitted that if any corporation on earth is de- serving of the franchise. it is this company. AS we stated last week the company is decidedly a home institution. and the bulk of the earnings of the company are spent here. The company is absolutely reliable and can he depended upon to give the city the best of service and a square deal at all times The company will of necessity have t6 spend a great deal of money here, if it is granted a franchise, and the laboring classes should remember that great deal of this money will go to them, and vote accordingly.
 Williams neeGs the waterworks and must have it, if she is to ex ptrienee any important growth. Don't forget this and cast your vote in favor of the franchise.

TWO MORE KOREAN
COUNTERFEITERs CAUGHT

Two more alleged Korean passers of
the queer were brought to Honolulu
from Kauai yesterday by Deputy u
S. Marshal Bruins and were under ex-
animation yesterday afternoon by Z.
S. District Attorney Breckons. The
alleged counterfeiters and distributors
of false coins are wild looking crea-
lures, with long, black, matted hair
and a general makeup on the wild
man of Borneo model. Along with the
prisoners the Deputy Marshal brought
five new ten-dollar gold pieces as evil
dence.
This money, which was passed IN the
stores of the haoles at Waimea, is
fair-Iooking article of the counterfeit
variety, with better ring than most
of the spurious coins so far taken out
of circulation recently. The die work
is inferior to that turned out by the
Maui and Hawaii counterfeiters, how
ever. and Marshal Hendry is of the
opinion that it is the product of some
other amateur mint.
The prisoners. whose names are Kim
Hey Wun and Kim Goo Wun, win be
given their examination before the
Commissioner today.

BLIND PAULO'S
PIPES ARE STILL
A WeII-KnOwn Character Drops
Dead From Heart
Failure.

Blind Paulo of the Pipes, one of the
best known street characters of the
city, dropped dead in his room at Ka-
lihi yesterday afternoon, heart failure
being the cause. He will be buried

The passing away of the old man,
whose eccentricities were known to
everyone in the city, will be regretted
by a large number of the kamaainas,
to whom the old whistler and the
blasts he blew on the bamboo pipes
he invariably carried about with him
were familiar. The street car men
win miss him, for he was one of those
whose privilege it was to ride any
where his vagrant mind led him with
out charge. The children who teased
him so much will also miss him, and
about. the cathedral, where sitting in
the shade of the trees he spent most
of his time, he viii be missed most
of all.
Paulo, although born blind, had trav-
eled throughout every island of the
group, his home having been originally
in Hilo, to which place he returned
after his different Journeys. After the
overthrow of the kingdom, however,
he came to Honolulu, vowing never to
return to his Hilo home until the
Queen was reseated on her throne. He
