CONGRESSMAN MAYNARD'S
"ABIE ARGUMENT"

Remarks made by Hon. Harry H.
Maynard In congress on June 30 are
reproduced by the Portsmouth star
with the comment that they constitute
"the ablest argumen In favor of gov
ernment-b built ships of war that mas
come to our notice recently" AS lar
xx this paper ever has been able TO
ascertain, there Is but one argument
In favor OF the navy yard construc-
ton work. That Is the oft-repeated
contention on the part of congress

government plants are located that IL

This contention. which. while not I'M
Rnswerable. contains some elements
Of truth, was not even mentioned by
MIR. Maynard In his able argument.
After carefully searching Mr.. May
nard's remarks for his argument, we
have come to the CONCLUSION that
there is none ~ them. unless 1t Is
concealed in this paragraph:
The burden of the argument OF
these two gentlemen, (W. A. Jones
and r. p. lHobson) as understand II,
Is that this congress having put gov
eminent contracts in private yards
under the eight hour law, the private
yards would not after this time he IN
position TO compete for the work.
and they would not be asking for this
work hereafter II the proposition
advanced by these gentlemen is tue,
then it is time We quit the private
yard and prepare as soon as possible
to do the work the government has
to do in the Inc of building its own
ships.
n there a an able argument or any
other sort of argument here. this
paper stands in need of an explans-
lion. Two congressman. one of whom.
Incidentally. in Richmond Pearson

this year be bull; in 4 navy yard. re-
xardless of the nature of the bids
subnitted by private companies
These gentlemen suggested that the
private companies would not be able
to bid for government work IN ths
Future because Of the eight-hour vOrl
day requirement. Everybody knows
now that in spite OF thr. ght-hou'
requirement, the great battiesh.p

AKSALA GUARDS ARE
 NOW SPECIAL POLICE

The two captains and their eighteen guards were sworn in last night as special police for twcuty-forr hours, that is from seven o'clock Friday eve ming until seven o'clock Sunday even ing with all powers of regular police officer.
 Thi, was very wise mov" on tae part of the Council for there arc few who would love to start scrap" and create discord even when there is an entertainment or carnival given for tine benefit or charity. and now that the guards have been sworn in as special officers those wh" try to start some thing as they said would be the case will have plenty of tim" to cool off and think il over in the city jail
 Several people have been boasting pf showing fight should the guards get after them. but in nearly every ease such mouthiugs have come from people Wh" would have [" enter the hospital. should they fall ill. through tn" aims of charity. or tn" city would have to pay for their keep.
 To offset any such move and main tain peace throughout Aksala carnival day the following guards hav" been sworn in as special police.

GETS STAR TENNIS TRIO

STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Septem-
Der 9.-Three crack tennis players of
southern California are enrolled under
the Cardinal this year. Ward Dawson,
the southern interscholastic champion,
A Cawston, formerly a Harvard school
star, and F. NJ Douglas, who played
on the intercollegiate team of Occi-

the new students Cawston and Daw-

the sophomore class.
Wildwood Murray, who attended the

and was intercollegiate tennis cham
piOn of the State. also is among the
Cardinal acquisitions this year. He
and Douglas will not be able to COM

account of the one year eligibility rule,
but they will greatly aid in the de-

UNFORTUNATELY THEY CAN
NOT PLAY BALL IN LAKE

Despite an afternoon papers column
announcements that there will be four
games of baseball at Athletic Park to-
morrow, the Oahu league held a meet
ing last evening and decided not to
start the second series of baseball until
Sunday, the ninth of October. The
news authority in question must mean
water polo, for Athletic Park has long
been submerged under fathoms of wa
ter, and each rainfall keeps the tide
high. The league has been inviting
suggestions for a week as to how its
ball grounds might be drained.
John G. Lane has got the Oahu
leagues vote for mayor. At Antoine
Marcalhno s solicitation he has put up
a handsome cup to whet the thirst of
the teams for the Oahu league cham

tlub, called attention to the fact that
there are only about six branches Of the
y. y. L. covering the whole United
States, and to be one of seven would
make Hawaii very conspicuous every
time the map was turned to to decide
where to hold the next national meet.
whereas if these Island We're annexed
to the territory Of the Pacific Amateur
Athletic Association, as was at one time
thought necessary on the start. Hawaii
would not come into such prominence.
The question was asked: Why can t
athletes 90 from here and compete
without being members of the A. A Us
And the answer was: Why don't Paul
Wilmington and others who have won
amateur standing in the States compete
in events when they come back here?
Young Lyman, who is now a cadet
at the National Military Academy at
West Point. it was said, took part in
one of these outlaw tournaments, and
his case was afterward brought up be
fore the officers of the A. A. L. The
only reason that he was exonerated
from the charge of competing against
sportsmen who were not members of
the A. A. L. was that the organization
did not extend to the Hawaiian Islands,
and Lyman was acquitted
Any athlete going from here to the
States could be barred from partici-
pating in any athletic events if the
A. A L. saw fit to do it. and if it could
be proven that he had ever accepted
money for participating in sports here
he could lie barred from joining the
A. A. L. there, whereas if local branch
of sthe national organization is formed
here, one of the inducements is that
a general amnesty is proclaimed on the
start and everybody begins anew.

CRICKET CLUB WILL
PLAY BRITISH SAILORS

The Honolulu Cricket Club is going
to get another game with the British
sailor men before they blow out. The
match is to come off this afternoon at
Makiki and everybody is expected to
show up promptly at half-past two
0 clock so as to run up big score.
The Honolulu club is not always sue
cessful in getting out a full team and
the members are always anxious to
have every one who is on to the game
report at the field and the chances are
that none of them will have to hold
down the bench. r. A. Jordan said
last night that he wished that doctor
out at Fort Ruger would appear on the
scene and Sleuth Bergau also would
be given a show to run down a good
score if he would get on the beat.
