The new Tariff Bill has passed
both houses and been signed by the
President and is now a law. Hides
are OF the free list but wool was
saved from any disastrous pruning.
We can stand the free hides if leather
has been reduced sufficiently. The
newspapers get some comfort in the
reduction of the duty on wood pulp.
We can't get everything we want, so
let us be satisfied with the new bill
and hump ourselves to bring Wyom-
ing to the front.

1T you want to understand what a
large man President Taft really is
mt has but to review his conduct
during the recent tariff struggle. He
has been very quiet yet very persist
ent in his views. He has said, "Gen-
tlemen, the duty on lumber must not
exceed 81 % per thousand: hides
must be on the free list and you must
reduce the duty on leather, etc, etc. !"
Congress bucked, made a noise with
its mouth and tried a big game of
bluff, but it did not avail. President
Taft had his way and got everything
he wanted 1t takes "a pretty big man
to dictate to Congress, and he must
have a pretty strong grip in order to
bring so many men to his way of
thinking. Yet while he has done so
much, he has not aroused any great
luminosity from any party of men. or
IRON any particular source. He is
Just as strong with all parts of the
United States as before, and has
shown that he is a stronger mar even
than President Roosevelt. He has
gotten what he wanted, kept his ante
election promises, and secured to the
people "A reasonable and satisfactory
revision of the tariff.

Directors of Alexander and Baldwin,

of the steamship traffic business be-

days ought to be built at once.

JUVENILES ROUNDED UP
IN DOWNTOWN SECTION

twenty-five boys ranging in age
from seven to fourteen years were
rounded up off the streets after 10
o clock last night and taken to the
station. Some of them were taken from
places of amusement. The arrests
were made at nearly half after 10.
The boys were taken to the bicycle
yard adjoining the station and were
subjected to considerable questioning
by the police officers. the inquiry going
on unit! almost midnight before the
youngsters We're sent to their homes.
Young boys have recently become
defiant of law and police officers and
roamed about at pleasure. The present
juvenile law places so many restrictions
upon officers taking in small boys that
the police are rather nervous about
picking them up.

PUBLIC LANDS
FOR HOME
SEEKERS
Government Surveyed
Lots Are to Be
Opened Up.

All the government homestead lots
in the Territory which have been sur
veyed are to be thrown on the market
in one great lot and anybody who wants
them and can comply with the terms
under which they are to be offered,
may acquire home.
Marston Campbell, as Land Commits
sioner, announced yesterday that he is
having prepared a complete list show
ing all the homestead lands that have
been surveyed, and that as soon as the
list is completed, a big advertisement
will be published, informing the home
hungry public how and where home
stead lots may be obtained.
There has for long time been more
or less complaint that government
lands that should be thrown open to
bona fide homesteaders were tied up in
a tangle of red tape instead of being
turned into homes for citizens of the
Territory. This has been one of the
most serious and loudly voiced com
plants against the conduct of the Land
Office, especially under former admins
trations. Now the protestations of the
government that more settlers are
wanted and that lands will be provided
for them appear in a fair way to be
proved grounded on fact.
There are thousands of acres of gov
eminent lands suitable for homestead
ing scattered over the Territory, there
being good lands on all the bigger
islands. Some of the land has not been
surveyed ant cannot be thrown on the
market until it is, but large amount
has been surveyed and will provide
room for many new homes and small
farms The list will be published by
the Land Office when it is prepared.

MAY 4 WOMAN
OWN 4 SALOON =?
Interesting Question Raised at
Meeting of the Liquor
License Board.

A license to run saloon at Waipa-
hu was granted by the Liquor License
Board yesterday afternoon to Joe j..
Dias, there being no opposition to the
granting of the same.
The question was raised as to
whether or not a woman may hold an
interest in a saloon license. After the
license had been granted, attorney E.
NJ. Watson, appearing for the petition
er, asked that leave be granted Mr..
Dias to transfer a half interest in it
to his mother, Mrs. Julia Dias. He ex-
planned that the saloon at Waipahu
used to he run by the father of j. j.
Dias. Dias senior died last year. His
estate is heavily in debt to certain
wholesale iiquor houses in Honolulu,
and the mother and son are eager to
wipe out the indebtedness. At the
same time. it is desirable that the es-
tate be closed up. By allowing the
mother and son to form a cOpartnership
this could be more easily accomplished
than in any other way.
Board Unfavorable.
The proposition, however, did not
please the Board little bit. They did
not look at all favorably upon the
proposition of allowing a woman to

Mori, the japanese who murderously
