NOT FIRsT-HAND INTERVIEW.

Editor Advertiser: kindly permit
me to supplement your very full and
faithful account of the Anti-Saloon
League situation in this morning s Ad-
vertiser by way of slight correction.
While it is true that 1 have understood
that our honored delegate to congress,
Prince Kalanianaole, has stated that he
is in favor of prohibition tor Hawaii,
and / have been told that he has so
expressed himself in Washington, l
have not personally had any converse,
tion with him on this subject. Nor
do know that he has expressed himself
either in Washington or here upon the
subject of the present Senate Bill No.
1862 now pending in congress. The bill!
which the Prince, by his address IN a
public hearing before our territorial
house of representatives, did so much
to carry was the local option bill, which
was passed by the house in 1907 but
was killed in the senate. l do not
remember that he spoke in favor of
the present license law at a public meet
ing of either house or senate at that
time, though he may have done so. His
devotion to the interests of his people
have put him in line with the splendid
record of the Kamehameha sovereigns
in consistently seeking to deliver them
from the drink curse.

Letters From
the People
Honolulu. November 5. 1909.


Editor Advertiser:-I desire to state
briefly what l tried to say, and thought
| did say, to your representative yes
terday. relative to the proposed auto
mobile rate ordinance. Your editorial
agrees exactly with my views, while
the story in your columns this morning,
especially the heading, does not.
/ never handled an automobile In my
life: therefore / dom claim to know
what is Just rate of fare for machines
for hire. Hence [ had no intention OF
saving that Mr.. Quinn 8 ordinance
would be " detrimental to the interests
of Hawaii" | do not even know what
rates the ordinance in question would
impose, and l had nothing to do with
the figures, or comparisons made IN your
article.
For two years or more | have wanted
to see auto rates regulated by law, be-
cause that is the only way that the
interests Of all concerned can be pro-
tected. But when any such ordinance
is passed it should be only after the
most careful consideration and discus
sion from owners and public alike.
! do not favor maximum rate
that is too high, or which is not IN
tended to be charged on all ordinary
occasions. Such law, l believe, would
be worse than no law at all, for it
would give the sanction of the COM
mnnity to hold-ups of tourists and
others, at any time driver OF a pubic
vehicle might see fit.
The Hawaii Promotion Committee is
working for the good of the community,
and the automobiles are certainly a
most necessary and important part OF
this community. AS in every other
business, l want the automobile iveries
to make just and reasonable profit.
Nobody can object to that, and the sue
cess of any business depends upon it;
but the prosperity of this city IN the
future depends in no less degree upon
reasonable charges This does not ap-
ply alone to automobiles, but holds good
in almost every line of trade with which
the stranger in the Islands comes in
contact Unduly high prices is form
of greed that is shortsighted in the
extreme, and nothing can hurt place
that is catering to the tourist trade,
more than a reputation for hold-up
prices. Atlantic City, the greatest tour
list resort in the world, and some of
the other most successful places of like
kind, have made it their slogan that
-'tit s cheaper to spend your vacation
here than to stay at home. +" And they
pretty nearly make good their boast.
We have every reason to believe that
tremendous tide CT tourist travel is
turning towards Hawaii. We have
worked hard to get it started, and the
very best way to keep it up, and tt
add to it, is to see that every visitor
goes home a booster and not knocker
Sincerely yours,
WILL J. COOPER,
Acting Secretary. The Hawaii Promo
ton Committee.

MANY GAME BIRDS

Yesterday was the first open day
for fall hunting and the local MINI
rods were out bright and early in
the country in quest of game. The
slaughter of ducks was immense
and many of those who went out
from here bagged the limit of what
the law allows. The prairie chick
ems were not so numerous, but still
some coveys of fine fat birds were
found and bagged. A party COM
posed of Harry Odell, Oscar Larson,
Ed Gallagher and DR.. Gerretson
were out in the neighborhood of
Praim and bagged twenty-six chick
ems during the day. Chas. Jorgen-
son bagged eight chickens. Messrs.
H. c. johnson, Kemp and Anderson
secured 80 ducks between them.
Nels M. Swenson and Algot Peter.
son bagged the limit on ducks.
Peter Pearson and Chris Freese Sc.
cured twenty-five chickens. Chas.

machine men from the cities and
they all bagged the legal limit OF
ducks. R. w. Stanford and Charlie

Russell LIEDHOLM.

The sympathy of the many
friends of Aaron Iiedholm in this
locality is extended to him in his
recent bereavement. the death of
his youngest son, Russell, as the re-
suit of an attack of that fatal dis
ease, infantile paralysis. The lit
tie fellow, who was six years old,
succumbed to the disease early
Tuesday morning, after a brief ILL
ness. The death occurred at the
Diamond Lake cottage. The funer=
al took place yesterday and the in
terment was in the Swedish Lu-
theran church cemetery at Grove
City.-Atwater Republican Press
Another death from this disease
dread malady occurred in Grove
City last week. Too much caution
cannot be exercised in preventing
the spread of this disease, of which
so far very little seems to be known
either of it's nature or required
treatment.

in Heaven-and shall play to-
gether. Rev. Nordberg's inter-
pretation of the message and his
plea to all to so live that the words
of the child would not be in vain,
touched every heart, both young
and old. He also spoke in English
from Psalms 1919: Il am a
stranger in the land.' His remarks
were both fitting and helpful.
After the friends and dear ones
had hidden the little child last
goodby, the flower-wreathed coffin
was carried by four of his brothers
to his grave. which loving hands
had draped and wreathed into a
fitting resting place for so fair an
occupant.
The memory of his sweet young
life will remain with US long, long.
May the words he spoke be a
guiding star to us and keep our feet
from straying. "Tis a sad trial to
give up a dear one like him, but
the beauty of death like his takes
away the sting of the loss.
To his dear ones we extend our
love and sympathy in their grief.
May they, too, see it was for the
best that he should 60 before and
wait for them in our home above.
And may they learn to say, even in
their grief: "Thy will be done.'

Children of Criminals.

It is a curious fact-one all at vari-
ance with the doctrines of heredity,
but borne out by police records-that
the children of crooks, Of all classes.
rarely turn out to be crooks them
selves. Deeper study of the subject
might reveal that they are possessed
of the criminal instincts, but that the
tragically close example Of the punish
ment and wretchedness that attend a
criminal career has been a terrifying
deterrent. The fast, at any rate, re-
mains. The rogues' galleries of Scot.
