THE DOG NUISANCE.

Editor Advertiser: Your strong
protest against the dog nuisance. in a
recent issue, seems to have fallen on
deaf ears, for I have waited in vain
several days for expressions Of opinion
from your readers on the subject. and
for some action on the part of those
TO whom the peace and comfort of
lawabiding citizens are confided. This
seeming apathy on the part of thou
sands who are suffering from a loss of
that "sleep that knits up the raveled
sleeve of care and is so much needed
for the coming days strenuous work,
can, 1t appears to me, only be account
ed for by that dislike for the drudgerv
of writing which seems to be inherent
in human nature. Boswell tells us that
the great doctor could not overcome
this inertia but by a supreme effort,
and humanity has changed little since
his day. But a people are only fitted
for that freedom, or its opposite,
which they obtain by their character.
Do you think, sir, that for even one
week the people of New England or
Canadian villages, towns or cities,
would tolerate conditions which are
peculiar to the primitive lives of gyp-
sizes or tented villages in Arabias

for our dogs, and sidewalks, and cess
pools, are good enough for US else they
would have long since disappeared in
to that limbo where they have gone in
every well-regulated modern com
munity.
Is it not monstrous that a center
which is destined to become the most
important point in the worlds com
merce, and that shortly, should be
Ekened by its most important organ,
to the most effete and corrupt city in
Europe? We just lack three things to
make the comparison perfect the
"cord,' the "sack, - and the Bos-
phorus.
Those are the things that ssoil our
addition and make us laughed at by
the thousands who have come through
the efforts of the Promotion Commit
tee, and have gone again in disgust
to publish our shortcomings to pros
pective tourists and homeseekers.
In conclusion permit me to add that,
as Mr.. Castle said with reference to
the late disgraceful open Sunday, if
the saloonkeepers are really working
for prohibition, our officials are none
the less doing all they can to bring
about government by commission for
Honolulu, if not for Hawaii generally.

WHAT THE MATTER rs?

Editor Advertiser: Last week I
suggested to the Promotion Commit
tee that they follow the example of
the San Francisco Examiner and offer
a prize to the school children for their
catch phrase.
Older heads seem to have given it
up. Perhaps the sight of the new
temporary cruiser Honolulu was too
much for them Too bad, some one
did not lasso it and carry it off to the
Bishop Museum to protect that in
stitution from microbes,
We are bowling for more ships. The
trouble is we do not howl in unison.
A few get off in one corner and shout
like couple of mynah birds over a
stale loaf, and the tourist proposition
seems to be that loaf.
1t seems we are not able to take
care of ourselves. Why drag the I'M
suspecting tourists attention to our
dry Sundays, lack of accommodation,
bad sidewalks (Nuuanu avenue in par
ticular), the high price of meats and
servants, not forgetting rents and a
ten-minute ear serviee2

other phase of the servant question

An employment agent brings me
a very green boy who tells me he
wants to stop long time. As the
boy seems willing and anxious to

teaching him how to do things my

the EN- ployment agent appears with
another as green as the first. 1t took
me some little time to realize I was
being made use of, and now I try to
employ none but old servants who
come with reference, however this is
not always possible as their pronun-

different from our.
I hope The Bystander (whom / do
not always approve) will succeed in
awaking sufficient interest in this mat

Both Gov. Draper and his wife
were proud of their boy Bristow,
who was light in the wealthy
society of the Bay Bay. They were
anxious that the young man
should go to college and take up
a profession-preferably the law.
So the husky young fellow enter
ed Harvard.
And then, while on a college,
boy jaunt, he met Queenie San
ford and his fate. Acquaintance
soon ripened into love and soon
young Draper proposed. Gov.
Draper was lieutenant governor of
the state then, and the way he
stormed when he learned that his
son wanted to wed an actress was
enough to deter most rich men s
sons. But not Bristow Draper.
"Pll disinherit you," said the
angry father.
"All right" said young Draper.
"Tll make a home and a place in
the world for myself"
| He was disinherited all right,
and leaving Boston came here
and went to work in the cotton
mill. Then, though only 20, he
married the chorus girl. For
more than a year he worker as
a spinner at $3.50 a week, and
Queenie. forgetting the footlights,
made both ends meet In the little
cottage by the lake. Soon the
mill bosses began to see that
young Draper had the right stuff
in him, and then promotion came.
And with promotion came anoth-

Perhaps that's the reason the

was soon after the baby came that
one day in the early dawn the
proud Massachusetts governor and
his lady wife got quietly off the
train here and departed in a car
riage to the little cottage beside
Lake Champlain.
Just how the reconciliation was
effected no one knows but the
Drapers-and they won't tell. In
any case, 1t was not until the next
day that Gov. Draper and his
wife returned from the cottage
and at the train to bid them god

Vast Army of Coal Miners
May be Forced to Quit
Their Work in
Wales
{By United Press Leased Wire. }

{By United Press Leased Wire,)
CARDIFF, Wales, June g.
Coal mining in South Wales will
be completely tied up and 10000
men thrown out of employment
throughout Glamorganshire, Mon
mouthshire and Carmarthenshire
unless an agreement which today
seems impossible, Is reached be-
tween employers and employees by
July /.
The trouble Is the outcome of
the enactment of the miners
eight-hour law, recently.
The men were working at the
time under an agreement which,
under ordinary circumstances
would not have expired until
March, 1910. By forcing altera-
tions in working hours, the en-
ployers contend, the new law
anulls the agreement and June
notified the miners union that
they were to terminate 1t the end
of the month.
Hitherto the South Wales min
ers have been worked on the sin
gle shift system, the hours vary
ing from seven, on what are
known as the short days, TO ten on
the long ones. The new law,
which becomes effective July 1,
these hours must give way to a
uniform eight-hour day.
The operators say that under
this system the mines can be more
economically worked in double
shifts, with two sets OF men work
ing two separate turns of eight
hours each. The miners object
to the double shift on the ground
that 1t will leave too short an in
terval to insure safety in the frey
seams of South Wales. The OPP
orators maintain that 1t will di-
minish the danger.

ITALIAN CABINET MAKES
FIRST BOW TO PARLI LAMENT
Premier Sidney Sonnino Says Triple
Alliance Policy VIII Be Adhered
To by the Ministry

ROME. Dec. 1S.-Baron Sidney Son
nino, the new premier, formally intro
duced his cabinet to parliament today
and briefly outlined its policy. The
government. he said, proposed to en-
courage education by the establish
ment of additional popular schools.
Two new departments would be cre-
ated, those for labor and railways.
The premier said Italy desired the
maintenance of peace and would re-
main loyal to the triple alliance. He
added that relations with foreign pow
ers never had been more trustworthy.
The triple alliance, he said, would
continue to be a great factor for peace
and also would guarantee italian in
terests. To the ancient and friendly
relations with England and France
was now added the Italo-Russian rap
prochement exemplifed in the meet
ing of King Victor Emmanuel and
Emperor Nicholas
These friendships, he continued,
would help the aim of the triple alli-
ance, representing a new guarantee of
peace, which was the constant object
of Italy's policy.
