WORK STARTED ON
ALAKEA WHARF SHED

Work has actually begun on the new
Alakea street wharf shed. Workmen
arc ny engaged in removing WOOD
blocks at regular intervals along both
sides If the wharf to leave spaces about
three feet square where concrete bases
will be laid for the shed supports. A
contractor s shed is being erected on
The f;rbor end of The wharf. The con
tract for the erection of the shed has
been allotted to Contractor Ouderkirk,
the price being in the neighborhood of
$4,000, and the job is to BIZ finished in
three months.
The shed will be wodecker, that
is the second story will not have a
floor all the way across, but a wide gal
lery running around the interior. Pas
sengers landing from steamships like
the Manchuria, Mongolia, Siberia, Ko-
rea, Chiyo Maru, Tenyo Maru, etc., will
land directly in the second story of the
shed, or the gallery as it will be termed.

the wharf on an inclined plane. The
gangway will be almost level, or prac-

Passengers will then get to the main
floor of the wharf by stairways.
Contractor ouderkirk began work on
Monday. The wharf should be in read

Co. plan to use the wharf for the yes
sells of the Pacific Mail and Togo
Kisen Kaisha lines. That firm will have
one berth for its vessels, and the other
will be open to other steamships, al
though Hackfeld & Co. will transact
all of their passenger and
freight business at this wharf.

TRANSPORTATION AND PATRIOTISM"
What the Bulletin Said on the CoaSwiSe Steam
ship Law Before the MstSOn Lie Began
Giving lis Editor Free Trips.

madam Pacific railway trains within
the borders of the United States be-
cause the Canadian Pacific railway is
controlled by foreign capitali
The people of the State or States
through which the Canadian Pacific
runs would not stand for it. The prop
osition would be laughed out of Con-
gress.
Yet q patriotism of very much the
same stripe is what the American cap
italists who will not put on the Amer
lean ships, and the American Congress
that will not substitute American ships
are demanding, not asking, but forcing
upon the people of the Territory of
Hawaii.
They have no right to make such an
extraordinary demand. They have the
might. That's all.
But this paper does not believe in
leaving it all to Congress to amend
or Mr.. Secretary Straus to suspend any
may be doing our fair land an injury.
We are all too willing to let Congress
do something for us, and everything ii
possible.
| Suspension of the coastwise shipping
laws will not completely solve the
problem of transportation for these
4 .,1a
us the liners between this city and the
ports of the Pacific Coast which we
must have if the passengers who apply
are to be carried
The people of these islands have
freight. That is what the owners of
American ships are looking for We
bring from the mainland goods which
for the eleven months ending last May
were valued at more than twelve mil
lions of dollars. During the same pc.
Rod we sent produce to the mainland
ports that was valued at about twenty
four millions Of dollars.
That represents freight, and the vast
majority of this freight goes to ship
ping interests that make good profit
out of Hawaii's business but do little
or nothing in the way Of furnishir
passenger service,
! The Bulletin believes it to be tn,
rankest kind of folly for the business
men Of these islands to allow this con
, dition to continue.
When it is possible for our business
leaders to get together on every othe
| question that comes up, it ought no
to be impossible for these men to as
J semble their forces back OF messag,
running to this effect:
} "Hawaii will give its freight to the
transportation lines that will give tn,
Territory first-class passenger service
1 with mainland ports"
/ If such movement is once started
} we believe there will be some genuine
activity in shipping circles that is no
now in evidence.
The people of Hawaii should get to
: gether for the purpose of forcing I
! square deal from the people of til,
mainland and the capitalists the squar,
| deal which is now not even granted
us in theory. Under any circumstances
success can only be attained by united

BONINE FILMS
At BIG FAIR

Three thousand two hundred feet of
moving picture films and not less than
240 lantern slides of scenes in the Ha-
waiian Islands will be used to illustrate
lectures and talks on the Islands at the
Alaska Yukon Exposition this summer.
The films and slides will be furnished
by r. X. BONNIE, the moving-picture
expert, the matter being settled at a
meeting of the Exposition Commission.
ers held yesterday afternoon.
1t was decided that for forty.min-
ute lecture in the auditorium, which will
be controlled by the United States gov
eminent and allotted to the various ex-
hibitors, that at least sixty slides and
| 500 feet of film could be used for each
lecture. 1t may be that more film will
be used but 500 feet will be the mini
mum contracted for by the commits
sioners. 1t is expected that lectures
will be made not only by Lloyd Childs,
who will be in charge Of Hawaii g ex-
hibt at the exposition, but by Homo
| lulu visitors. Commissioner Knudsen
expressed his willingness to speak and
there is assurance of volunteer force
of able speakers who will present Ha-
wall s scenic attractions, her varied in.
dustres and healthful climate to the
anticipated large audiences.
Messrs. Morgan and Childs were ap.
|
on the proposed exhibit at the EXPOSE
tion of fish from Hawaiian waters. The
commissioners expressed the opinion
that such an exhibit would be invalu-
able. On this question letter from +.
C. Potter of the Honolulu Aquarium
shed favorable light.
The commissioners spoke favorably Of
the Historical Hawaii exhibit proposed
by Miss Ida Pope of the Kamehameha
Girls School. Miss Pope's outline COM
prises comprehensive statement of the
divisions into which the exhibit could
be made. 1t is intended to show the
development of Hawaii from the early
missionary times to the present. A lit.
erature committee will compil.
pamphlet to accompany the raised map
exhibit. The arrangement of the fern
cry will be left to Mr.. Maclntyre of the
Moanalua estate. On the suggestion of
Mr.. BONNIE the commissioners approved
the plan to bill the large windows with
transparent photographs on glass, each
window to be devoted to an island.
It is likely that the suggestion that a
, group Of girl vocalists from the Kane.
hameha Schools to sing at the Hawaii
building, will be adopted If the trus'
tees of the Bishop Estate agree. Suit
able chaperons will be selected In fact
it has been proposed that Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles King, both Of whom have been
? connected with the Kamehameha
Schools, accompany the girls.
For decorating the interior Of the
Hawaii building Mr.. Knudsen showed
some beautiful mats made by Hawai-.
mas in Kauai and Nihau. The Niihau
mats were Of very handsome design and
were soft and pliable. The Hawaiians
on the two islands do not make these
mats as plentifully as in former times,
and these on exhibition were made at
the request of Mr.. Knudsen to show to
the commissioners.

bulletin, August o, 1909

august
Secretary Straus has gone over the
situation in Hawaii and finds that
what Hawaii most needs is transpor-
tation.
Congressman Cocks in seeking a go
luton for the problems of Hawaii
named transportation as the first ne
cessity.
The Bulletin does not claim it as a
remarkable compliment that these and
other leaders of the nation have reach
ed the same conclusion advanced by
this paper these many months.
The situation is obvious to any in
telligent citizen who will take the time
to study the conditions in these islands
and honestly seek the way out that
will bring the greatest good to the
greatest number.
The Bulletin is not an enthusiast
over the suspension of the coastwise
shipping laws. 1t prefers to have the
American capitalists build American
ships that will satisfy all the legiti-
mate demand of transportation between
these islands and the mainland. The
Bulletin wants to see the American
flag dominate the commerce OF the Pa
cifc.
But the fact of the matter is, that
American capital controlling American
ships is not giving the service this
Territory has reason, to expect and
which the present business and devel.
oping business of these islands justify
The ship owners and the moneyed
men tell our people that the best pos
sible is being done, since they are
forced to operate without ship sub
sidy. The Bulletin will not attempt &c
dispute the statements of these gentle
men, who, it is assumed, know theil
business.
The American people as represented
in the Congress of the Unitd States
have declared against granting shiI
subsidy.
That settles ship subsidies for tn,
present at least.
Therefore the question comes down
to one of whether the American people
have any right to leave the population
of Hawaii with their prospects o.
progress hung up between the devi
of an American ship owner, who say
he can not operate without a subsidy
and the deep blue sea of American in
difference to the prestige of American
shipping on the Pacific Ocean.
Some one may say that Hawaii il
not patriotic because it even contem
i, plates the use of foreign ships. The
Bulletin was once disposed to this view
The lesson in patriotism we have hal
in the inactivity of Congress and ship
builders has continued just long enough
to convince us that it is about time tn,
Territory was treated to little re
ciprocal patriotism.
What sort of patriotism is it tina
ham'strings the prosperity of Ter
ritory by refusing to furnish it Will
sufficient transportation facilities of ;
certain definite "legal" type and il
the same breath excludes all our people
from the use of the ships of other ma
tions2
What sort of patriotism would it b,
for our country to pass law that nj

MUNICIPAL TEST
I CASE IN SIGHT

The various matters in dispate be-
tween His Honor and the Supervisors |
will probably reach a court proceeding |
stage by tomorrow or Saturday. Wheth'
er all the points at issue can be cover
ed with one suit OF not is one of the
things yet to be learned. Tonight the
Supervisors consider the Mayors veto
of their appropriation bill, and, al
though by subsequent action the board
has acknowledged the propriety of some
of the vetoing reasons, it is certainty
that the majority will override the
Mayors disapproval and bring the ordi-
nance into force.
Then the various salaries arranged
for by the Supervisorial committees and
the various salaries arranged for by the
Mayor in his appointments will be. de-
manded and the demands will be duly
considered by the City Fathers. Those
of the Republican stripe will be duly
approved to the tune of about six ayes
to one no and those of the Democrats
will be hoisted to the table by the same
vote. This will give another oppor-
tunity for the Mayor to defend his
right to appoint under Section lac and
give the majority another chance to
| outvote Mcclellan. Under the author
ity of the majority of the board, the
city employees in office by right of pos
session will make their demands for
warrants upon the Auditor, which will
be respectfully declined. Then man
damus proceedings will be brought to
compel the Auditor to issue the war
rants and the matter will be on.
In the same way, it is possible that
the board will be mandamused on the
part of the Democratic appointed en-
ployes to compel the passing of their
salary warrants.
This is the program being looked for
ward to. Auditor Bicknell stated yes.
terday that his course will depend upon
the action of the Supervisors tonight
although he has previously stated that
he will be compelled to refuse to issue
any warrants for the payment of city
moneys so long as there was a question
of the legality of the legislation re.
specting the payments.
"Trent is lucky in this thing" says
the Auditor, fhe has his course already
laid down by the courts. He is all
right, whatever happens, but it is up to
me, apparently, to have the matter test
