RAILROAD SERVICE IN THE
VALLEY

The meeting in HarrIsoEbure
last Thursday of the Mayors and
other representatives of the princi-
pal towns and cities of the Shenpn-
dosh Valley, developed some
striking information as to the
equipment and management OF
the Valley Branch Of the Bslti-
more and Ohio Railroad.
Although this road traverses
rich and fertile agricultural sec
ton, 1t 10 said tie railroad officials
claim that the road is operated at
loss. Mr.. Richard E. Byrd of
Winchester, who 10 the distin.
guishsd speaker of the Virginia
House of Delegates, declared that
this result 10 reached by q peculiar
method Of bookkeeping. That lie
to say, it is currently reported, and |
there appears ground for the belief,
that it has been the custom for
years for the Baltimore and Ohio
management to transfer their old
rolling stock and other equipment
to the Valley road and when the
same are in need of repair, as they
are Of necessity bound to be in b
short time, they are sent to the
ehops and the cost charged against
the Valley rad. Thus it will sp-
pear that the Valley branch has to
put up with rolling stock ana ,
equipment that are practically e
worn out; in other words, this line :
is the "bone.yard" of the entire t
system, as was pithily asserted. I
As to schedule, Lexington has 8

offense. This is decidedly wrong. 1t
IS TO be found in most of the large
cities of the United States, as well as
here in Honolulu. Either have no law
at all or let the people keep it them
selves.
With regard to the so-called social
evil, there is great movement on,
because it has been seen that this
touches the foundation of society. Men
who know better or should know bet
ter are undermining the structure of
beautiful homes, and running the social
standing of wives and mothers. It is
an outrage against society,"
Mr.: Dole then spoke of the new def
milton of business: GAN business is
social SERVICE saying that a new idea
had lately worked in business. that be-
ing the one guiding law of the golden
rule. He said that it had been and is
being worked successfully by some Of
the ablest business men of the world.
The race problem was then taken I'D.
Mr. Dole stating that it is one in which
mankind Is taking a great amount of
interest. He stated emphatically that
IN Honolulu there was a better condi
ton of solution of this question than
IN almost any other place in the world.
Inc problem is hot on the Pacific
Coast, in South Africa. and in some
OF the Southern States, as well as Ha-
wan. This problem, he said. there are
only two ways of considering-frst. in
an attitude of suspicion, of race
Jealousy, this leading, of course. to
strife; and, second, in an attitude of
sympathy, kindness and humanity.
which no one has yet fairly tried and
found not to work successfully.
Mr.. Dole spoke of the great move
ment now in favor of peace as against
war, stating that the world is CRYING
for peace. He said that some people
that all the expense of pre-
pairing for war with armies and navies
was III reality prepare ton for peace.
Mr.. Dole, however, compared the ex-
element of preparing for war to that
exhibited by our forefathers at the
line the agitation against witchcraft |
vent on. He suggested that the Unit |
ID States, being one of the most pow
'rfui and advanced nations, drop prep

International peace, when, he said, the

Judge Lanier said last evening that af-
