NO EXCUSE FOR THE
UNL|GHTED STREETS

With all Honolulu s claim that she
IS an up-to-date American city. and a
city in which the tourist can find all
the conveniences of which anv city Of
It's size in the United States can boast.
1t would seem as though Honolulu has
lot to learn in the way of lighting
its streets.
win the exception of the first few
hours of the night, and two or thee
chosen localities, Honolulu streets
are SO dark that it would make anv
photographer boast if his darkroom
could be made as black.
There is little enough to see in Ho-
nolulu at night when all of its street
lghts are lighted, but God helm the
tourist or the stranger in town who
may, by chance, and the chances are
good, get Off his course, and if bv ac-
cloent he Should meet a policeman and
inquire where certain hotel or lodg.

intelligent reply as by asking the
darkness itself.
The claim is that there is not enough
water In the reservoirs to run the
electric plant, but that is no excuse.
The first legal Board of Supervisors
was confronted with the same short
ness of the city's water supply. but
still Honolulu had its we'll lighted
streets. The lighting was turned over
to the Hawaiian Electric Co., who fur
nished light, understand, for ten
dollars per month per light, for in the
nelghborhood of three hundred lights.

about three thousand dollars. Three
thousand dollars seems to be a very
large sum of money, but what of that

and property that well lighted city
affords. Honolulu IS police, it seems.

1t is perhaps an anomaly that our
editor who has children undergoing
industrial training in the Kamehemeha
Schools, is held up to scorn as one who
is opposing industrial training, and the
editors whose children are iuttering
around white shirt schools are claiming
glory for favoring training which
they would not allow to be tried on
their own children, as evinced by long
wlnded space-filling editorials Of little
meaning and less value.-Maui News.

THE RECORDS OF
CORPORATIONS

Secretaries of corporations keeping
the records of meetings in the loose
leaf system say the work is simplifed
and the records more lasting. The
Iact that they may be written legibly
on writing machine is indueement
enough for the average secretary to
adopt the system. The Hawaiian Ga
zette Co. has made sets for some of
the largest corporations and the smaller
1nes are falling into line. The loose
ieaL minute book is inexpensive and
IasIIhg. A phone message to the Ga
zette 20 Will bring a representative to
your offlee to talk the matter of ados

While in Washington, d. c., our es-
teemed Governor Frear talking, through
his beard on land matters, before some
Congressional committee or other, said
he did not think that we, the people of
Hawaii, were quite ready to legislate
for ourselves in this matter, or words
to that erect.
To be consistent, the Governor should
have gone on little further and said
that 'Ethose blooming old idiots in Ha-
wall were SO benighted that the Pres
ident, in looking about for Governor,
should give us one from the mainland

small potatoes and should not have
a Governor chosen from among us.
This, Governor Frear should say, to be

public land matter.-A Setta.

The scheme Of the agitators is to
collect a strike fund made up of con
trlbutions of twenty-five cents a month
from each japanese laborer. This
would bring in about seven thousand
dollars monthly, which would be a fine
thing for the agitators so long as the
laborers were foolish enough to find
the money.-Hilo Tribune.

Now, it is well to repeat what we
have said before, that Hawaii will
never have justice done to its resources

these is left to body of men in Homo

What the writer does not know of
mining would fill large number of
books, and the ignorance on this sub
ject of ninety-nlne per cent. of the
population of Hawaii would constitute
an equally extensive library But that

Now that Honolulu is becoming a
garrison town, there would seem to be
more chance for the other islands to
prosper as tourist centers. Hilo has
an opportunity, second to none, to forge
ahead with the volcano and a large
natural park, as suggested by Governor
Baker, and other old Hawaiian attrac
irons. By the way, what has been
done in the direction of securing from
the Territory that block of land for
