SIGN FOR MILES
OF SIDEWALKS
Some Property Owners Contest,
but Many Are Complying
With Order.

As a result of the sidewalk notices
sent out by Superintendent of Public
Works Marston Campbell, contracts
have been made already for three or
four miles of new cement sidewalks in
Honolulu. Most of the property owners
to whom notices We're sent at once be-
gan to make arrangements to comply
with the law as laid down by Camp
bell. In some cases, however, there will
be contests, and the right of the super
intendent to compel sidewalk laying
viii probably be opposed TO the court
of last resort.
~ have already made contracts for
something like three miles Of side.
walks said John Walker, cement con
tractor, yesterday, "and there are other
contracts. The response to the order
for sidewalk laying was immediate.
The notices sent out so far by Su'
perintendent Campbell cover only a
small portion of the Territory event
ually to be gone over. Hence it would
seem that there is going to be large
and long-lasting boom in sidewalk con
struction in Honolulu.

LABOR LEADER NOT
FOR PROHIBITION

CHICAGO, March s.-Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fedora
tion of Labor, yesterday refused an in
vitation TO speak for the local option
cause. In explaining his reason for de-
clining Mr.. Gompers said that the ex-
perience of most cities has shown pro-
hibition to be a failure.
81 could not consent to indorse local
option because l am not in sympathy
with the movement said Mr.. Com
pers. "Proper regulation of the liquor
traffic is much more effective than the
adjustment of saloons under the local
option or prohibition laws. Experience
of cities both in the United States and
other countries has shown this.
"There is not city in Maine where
stranger can not go and buy all the
beer or whisky he wants. There is no
attempt whatever TO disguise the fact
that these places are operating in vio-
lation OF the law"

MAHU's MURDERER
ACCORDED MERCY
Killer Gets Life Imprisonment
for Deliberate, Cold
Blooded Crime.

Anderson Grace, the murderer of
Waterman MANU-, must spend the re-
mainder Of his life behind the cold
walls of a prison; he must, for all the
DAYS of his worthless life that are left,
wear the badge of the criminal, the
stripes of involuntary servitude, the
yesterday sentenced him to imprison-
ment for life.
It is not improbable that in most
other courts Grace would have been
sentenced to be hanged by the neck
until he was dead, for, by his own con.
fession, the murder was cold-blooded
and premeditated. He enticed his VIC
tim into secluded spot and there slew
him, first knocking his brains out with
club and then shooting him as he lay
helpless on the ground. The poor wretch
did not even have chance to fight
for his life.
Yet Grace's plea of murder in the
second degree was accepted by direc.
tion of the department of justice. That
Judge Robertson was not at all inclined
to accept it was evident from his words
to the murderer, when he told him that
his crime should by rights be punished
with the punishment reserved only for
murder in the first degree.
And yet, Grace had the effrontery to
plead for the mercy which he did not
accord his victim. He tried the old,
threadbare plea that he was wronged
man, that his victim had acted i'm.
properly toward the Hawaiian woman
who is Grace's wife, and Furthermore,
and probably in his view more heinous,
had tried to get Grace fred from his
position as Waterman. For this MANU-
died. But Grace is not to die, He
is to be allowed to drag out his days
in the shadow of the prison, and per.
haps, in the course of time, be pardon
ed by some future governor who is not
acquainted with the cruel facts in the
case and who may be persuaded that
Grace is wronged man who slew only
in defense of his honor.
Grace's reputation before ever he
killed Mahu was bad one and his
life in Honolulu has not been such as
to recommend him to the mercy Of any
court.

.EDMUNDs ACT IS
STILL IN IFORCE.
Question of Its Applicability De.
cided on Precedent by
Robertson.

The Edmunds Act applies in this
Territory, says Judge Robertson in
effect in overriding the demurrer of
Ichibaro Ishibashi, japanese accused
of the violation of the special Utah
law which has for some years been
made to apply in Hawaii.
Judge Robertson's decision is based
upon the fact that Judge Dole has pre-.
viously ruled that the Edmunds Act
applies, and the second judge does not
feel that he can very well override the
first judge. Judge Robertson in his
decision says:
"When one member of this court
has ruled upon a point of law after
full consideration, his ruling should be
allowed to stand until reversed by a
higher court, unless strong reason for
reconsidering it be shown.n The Judge
also says that "the Edmunds. Tucker
act is applicable in this Territory and
was, therefore, extended to this Terri.
tory by the Organic Act.n
The question as to the applicability
of the Edmunds Act was raised by w
B. Lymer, who, before his appointment
as second deputy attorney-general, was
appointed by the court to defend the
prisoner. Mr.. Lymer's brief is said
to have been an exceptionally strong
one, but the question seems to have
been decided on precedent or judicial
courtesy rather than on its merits.

as to give a clear space for the dancers
in the middle of the floor.

GERS of the company and the invited
guests, and each speaker was given a
round of applause as he finished his
remarks. The banqueters were very
enthusiastic and banzais rang through

had met on leaving Quarantine Island,
asking him to grant them an audience
concerning their troubles, and that he
{Mott-Smith) had agreed to meet some
of their leaders tomorrow (Monday)
at two o'clock in the afternoon at his
Office in the executive building, that
the Russians thereupon stated that they
desired me to be present at the inter-

When Will Honolulu People Learn the

When VIII Honolulu People Learn the
Importance Of It?
Backache is only simple thing at
first;
But when you know tits from the
kidneys;
That serious kidney troubles follow;
That diabetes, Bright 3 disease may
be the fatal end,
You will gladly profit by the follow
ing experience.
TITS the honest statement Of a suf-
ferer who was cured.
s. d. Goodale, 1875 Brattle St., Athoi,
Mass, says: "Doan' 3 Backache Kid
ney Pills acted just as represented in
my case. For six years I was subject
to attacks of backache, 80 severe at
times that 1 can only describe my con-
dition as miserable When L straight
ened after STOPPING, sharp twinges
darted across the small of my back and
l firmly believed my trouble to be lum-
bago. When / was suffering from an
unusually severe attack, a neighbor adj
vised me to give Doan 8 Backache Kid
ney Pills trial, which did. This
remedy acted like magic and after
had taken the contents of one box
was entirely cured. Over two years
have passed since that time and have
had no further trouble from my back
or kidneys, I think SO highly Of
Doan IS Backache Kidney Pills that I
cannot find words strong enough to ex-
press my opinion of them"
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
sold by. all druggists and storekeepers
