FOOTBALLS BAD
1909 RECORD

With the foot ball season barely un-
der way a month, death has alreaay
claimed fourteen players, despite many
changes in the rules made in the hope
of lessening the chances of serious in
Jury. The number of the injured
whose accidents have been made pub
lie in the press dispatches already is
more than 1873 OF these 100 have
suffered serious hurts. Many more
have been hurt than have come to pub
lie notice. Care is taken at the uni
versities that as little news as pos
sible of injuries to the foot ball teams
shall leak out side the campus. Es-
pecially is thrs true of the practice

Among those who have died are

HILO WILL HAVE
SQUARE. PROGRAM
JOHN T.'MOIR TELLS OF COMING
EVENTS AND GUARANTEES
STRAIGHT BUSINESS.

John T. Moir manager of Onomeo Su-
judges of the races at Hilo last Fourth
of July, declares that the scandals of
the last meeting in the Rally City
will never be repeated. Hilo, accord
ing to Mr. MCig has pufged herself of
the crooks and their methods and will
henceforward appear in the garb of
purity, innOcense and all the other
real, nice virtues. Never again will
there be a crooked race in Hilo; never
agoin will there he the wrong horse
pulled at the right time and vice versa
and never again will the jockeys name
the winners.
I'VE are going to have a meet on
January L. says Mr. NOR, land it will
be on the dead square from start to
finish It is true that we have some
sports on Hawaii who are as crooked
as a rams horn, but they will have
nothing to do with races in the flu
ture. VIII they get out? They are
out already, and all the gates are lock-
ed and barred against them.
The two principal men against
whom there was righteous Indignation
will have nothing to do with the meet
on New Years Day. That program
will be in charge of the Volcano Sta
bles, and everybody knows what that
means The Volcano Stables people
will stand for no funny business on the
part of anybody"
Leaving that subject a little" con-
tinued Mr. Moir. 81 want to say that
! am opposed anyhow to this way of
bringing ace horses down from the
coast to compete in our meets. The
races shoulo he competitions between
island horses, reared and trained here
and handled by local men. There are
many reasons why outside racers
should not be brought in for purely
track purposes. The breeding of good
stock is not particularly encouraged
by the meteoric triumph of some in
vader, and it gives a great boost to
the most Objectionable species of track
gambling. l say cut out outside horses
and let our races be between our own
animals.
Don't let Honolulu get the idea
That we on Hawaii countenance crook
ed work on our race tracks. We will
rot stand for it, and will prove it
by showing az clean program on
New Years Day as was ever pulled of
anywhere on earth
Mr.. Moir was one of the judge OF
the Fourth OF July meet, and it was he
who, in pure disgust at the work OF
certain of the horse owners on the
track, demanded an investigation and
punishment of the offenders. In the
whole TRADE Of utilization and cal
umny which followed, however, nc
suggestion was ever made that the
work of Mr. Moir and his associates
was otke. than open, above board anC
clean. And the present assurance Of
Mr. MoiT that the coming race meet
will be o. k. will go a long way to-
ward restoring public confidence in the
honesty of track competition at Hilo

FLAG RARELY SEEN
IN FOREIGN PORTS
ENTOMOLOGIST REMARKS ON
THE SCARCITY OF AMERICAN
MERCHANT VESSELS.

SAN FRANCISCO, November l.
ut is a positive disgrace to the
United States that there is scarcely
an American ship to be seen in any
port of the world" was the emphatic
statement made yesterday by George
Compere, the well known entomolo-
gist, who returned in the liner China
from a trip that encircled the globe.
Compere has done more than any
other man to rid California orchards
of insect pests, in the opinion or
prominent horticulturists, in his pere-
CARNATIONS over the world having
discovered and introduced here
scores of parasites which have Grad
icated various orchard pests.
On this last voyage, which began
in June of last year. Compere visited
Europe and the Orient, occasionally
sending home beneficial insects to
the State Horticultural Commission
at Sacramento. He brings with him
six species of red-scale parasite for
the orange pests of the Southern
California orchards, the insects hav-
! ing been found in the Philippines,
Japan and China.
Speaking of the scarcity of Ameri-
lean merchant vessels, Compere wax.
! ed eloquent Nowhere except in
the port of Hongkong, or the inter
mediate ports at which they call, do
you see anything but an occasional
Pacific Mail steamer flying the Am
erican flag, and these steamers OF
the Pacific Mail are not present in
any great numbers in the foreign
ports. 1t is exceedingly seldom that
one sees the American flag in any
other of the ports of the Orient, OF
in any foreign ports for that matter
$50 utterly poor is the Showing
made by the American flag, in fact
that one hears it commented upon
everywhere, and 1 confess that
have frequently felt very much
ashamed of the condition of our ship
ping. And men of other countries dc
not seem to hesitate to speak about
it, and ask pertinent questions. Il
is so everywhere 1 have been-nC
American ships or steamers, ant
pointed remarks about it by foreign
ers.
"At the same time one sees the
great steamships of the North Ger
man Lloyd Company carrying hun
dreds of thousands of dollars wortI
of merchandise and machinery t.
ports which should be served by Am
erican vessels. The same with the
British and others-all carrying bis

One has only to visit foreign ports
to see the tremendous business be
ing done by the subsidized ships o

could send huge cargoes to foreign
ports, and there would be no end t.
the trade that would spring up.

find a ready market, but these goods
