A DEMOCRATIC
LICENSE
PLAN
The Worst Proposal Yet
in Whisky Ring
Tactics.

The concurrent resolution introduced
in the House of Representatives, asking
that Congress suspend the Coastwise
shipping laws in the interests Of COM
merce, received its death blow in the
Senate yesterday. 1t was tabled on
the motion of Senator Fairchild after
a brief debate in which it appeared to
be the general sentiment of the upper
house members that it would be waste
of effort to forward the document to
Washington. Senator's Palmer Woods
and Kalama voted against the tabling
of the resolution, both being members
which reported favorably on the reso
luton with an inconsequential amend
ment.
The fishing bill introduced by Sen
ator Coelho of Maui, passed second
reading on a vote of ten to five. This
bill, which the Judiciary Committee
recommended to be postponed indef
initely, completes for the honors that
were attained by some of the bills re-
Gently introduced at the California
Legislature and which were only halted
upon the representations of the FEEDER
al government. Coelho's bill, should
it become a law, will absolutely prevent
any japanese subject from fishing in
the waters within the jurisdiction of
Hawaii. The provisions of the meas
ure state that any person not citizen
of the United States cor eligible to
become such I" fishing in the waters of
the Territory shall be guilty of mis-
demeanor. As it stood this masterpiece
of mountebank legislation only stipu-
lated actual citizens and contained no
eligibility clause. Even Coelho was
ashamed of it as it stood originally and
fastened to amend it yesterday.
President of the Senate w. o. Smith
felt called upon to take the floor in
protest when Coelho submitted an
amendment of the same bearing in the
measure asking that the Federal gov
eminent assume the responsibility in
the condemnation of private fishing
rights. This bill stipulates "the people
at large as the benefciaries, but
Coelho interpreted this to mean direct
attack on the sovereignty of somebody.

<Fcitizens or eligible to become such. =
81 feel that it is my duty to protest
against this sort of legislation, - said
President of the Senate Smith after
Vice President Kalama had taken the
chair of the presiding officer. This
is a matter affecting treaty rights and
should be considered carefully. Serious
questions of public policy are involved
in this measure.
President Smith urged that consider
alton be postponed and finally succeed
ed in having it deferred for week.
The limit in retrogressive legislation
is reached in a new Whisky Bill intro
duced into the House yesterday smorn-
ing by Furtado, the introduction of
measures intended to reopen the whole
liquor agitation being apparently a
Democratic prerogative. Furtado's bill
includes all the bad points of the pres
ent law. throws out all the good points
and substitutes others thousand times
worse than any the Territory has ever
had.

they might justly regard as beneficial
to their municipality; 1t might even
be regarded as patriotic. The presi
dent suggested that they might get
some one to introduce bill in con
gress to bring it about. And it will
be done. Hence congress will have
its hands full.
That the getting back of this chival
rous gift of land is somewhat of hot
coal is shown by the fact that the
supreme court of the United States
evaded passing on its constitutionality
and congress. which has picked it up
twice, has dropped it in two different
ways.
For the information of those inter
ested it might be said that this Vir.
ginia portion of the original District
of Columbia comprises some thirty
odd square miles, now Alexandria
county. The constitution having called
for plot ten miles square. the bal.
ance of the district comprises some
sixty odd square miles. The one-third
now part of Virginia, President Taft
thinks, ought to come back.
That President Taft was prophetic
in his suggestion the lost third should
be recovered is generally conceded. II
is felt that it will not be long before
this government will need it for vari.
Gus institutions. Already it has bought

ciety would rush up to see how much
Aunt Rhinocolura's nose had grown.
The most sanguine always claimed to
be able to see considerable improve
ment each time, but at last even they
had to admit that Aunt Rhinocolura's
nose had worn down to nubbin tho
size Of a push button, and presently it
did not look like anything but dried
pea-a little, wrinkled, yellow dried
pea. And it was still shrinking!
Just then was when her cousin Gill
dad Betz came for a short visit, and
the moment he saw Aunt Rhinoco-
lura's nose he remarked that all was
not we'll with it. 1t was about the
size of a pin head by the time he had
stayed over another treatment, and
the only way Aunt Rhinocolura could
tell she had a nose at all was by feel.
ing for it gently with her little finger.
Then she could feel something that
felt like a grain of salt.
Then Cousin Gildad came right out
and said he was having something
done, and that he was taking thought
waves from a beauty doctor at Phila-
delphia, and that the waves came
every Wednesday at p. M. but that
he was getting hopeless. He said the
thing was warts. He had had three
warts on the back of his left hand
and he was taking the thought-wave
treatment to have them removed, but

could to help the beauty-waves by
keeping her nose we'll vaselined and
by massaging it with the fiat of her
thumb to render it soft and sympa-
thetic. At the eighth treatment, how
ever, she gave this up, for she was
startled to find that, as she supposed,
the massaging was gradually pushing
her nose into her face. But when, aft
err two more treatments, she found
that her nose would no longer hold
her eyeglasses, she knew the beauty
doctor was really having some effect.
At first Aunt Rhinocolura was sur
prised to find her nose lessening in
this way, and it was quite an annoy
ance not to be able to wear her nose
glasses, but she got a pair of lorg-
nettes, which she could hold in her
hand, and got along very well. AS
for her nose retreating little, she
looked at it logically. She knew she
had very stubborn case of nose, and
that it would be quite feat to turn
it into an aristocratic nose, with a
Decline profile, and she knew that

fully, and every Thursday at 10 a. m.
she would turn her nose toward Phil
adelphia and assume a quiescent state
of mind, and the beauty waves would
come hurting along and impinge on
her nose. So many citizens wanted to
be present at the occasions when the
waves arrived that she had to issue
admission cards, and 1t was indeed
affecting to see our best society sit
ting around Aunt Rhinocolura waiting
for her nose to wiggle. 1t affected her
nose that way. Exactly at 10 a. m.
the waves would arrive. and for Is
minutes, while they continued. Aunt
Rhinocolura's nose would t:emble like
