tent by the automobile. The circula-
ton of periodical literature has vastly
increased, and the extension Of the
rural free delivery brings the daily
paper to the farmers door with graft
flying regularity. AS a result, there
has not been any necessity for farmers
and others to struggle to get to dis.
tant political meetings. This does
not mean, however, that the day of
political meetings has passed by. Far
from it. The automobile has only in
creased the opportunity for those
meetings; and we have seen in the
various States the candidate for the
governorship and other offices taken
from place to place by automobiles
more effectively than ever the railway
carried them. For the automobile is a
much more elastic institution, and Of
ten enables candidates to go to points
not touched by the railway. The au-
tomobile conveys the candidate along
the country roads, where he is an OBJ
ject of interest to the farmers right on
their own farms. We need go back no
further than the campaign of 1896,
when Mr.. Bryan made his first sensa-
tional run" for the Presidency, to
realize the change from the emotional
side of campaigning to the more gen.
orally educative method, and we may
be glad for the change.-The Outlook.

PANAMA CANAL
IN TWO YEARS

PANAMA, November 16.-Colonel
Goethals, U. s. A., in charge of the
engineering work on the Panama Ca
nal told President Taft yesterday that
the canal will be completed by Deem
Der 1, 1913, or two years from the
present. He stated that the works
would all be finished, including locks
and all structural work along the en-
tire route.
The engineer also stated that he
wants to have a year following the
completion of the great waterway, in
which to train the canal tenders in
their duties to make them efficient be-
fore the official opening on January
1, 1915.
All ships which owners may wish to
send through the canal between the
date of completion and the official
opening, in his opinion, can have the
privilege of making the voyage, but
at their own risk.
President Taft expressed himself as
much pleased with the work and the
prospect for an early competitor of the
canal.

1 can learn, the only way to get
work done now is by contract, and
which is generally quite an expensive
method, and is liable to cost the plan
tations far more than any system of
profit sharing would do. In fact, /
maintain that profit sharing would re-
suit in a decided gain to the planta-
tions and share holders, for it has
proved so in almost every instance in
which it has been tried
I would like to ask if it has proved
a success with the high salaried men
why SHOULD it not with the laborers?
And l would like to say, that if this
method was tried and found success
full, and of which I have not the slight
est doubt, it would solve the labor
question of these Islands at one
stroke.
1t would solve it because it would
take less men to do more work, and
because it would give better satisfac-
ton; and at the same time be a chea-
per method of getting the work done,
At any rate it would cost but little to
try it. Let one of the plantations set
aside say 10 per cent of the dividend,
and let it be known that this amount
will be paid to the laborers at the end
of each year, and think it will be
seen by the increased amount Of work
done that there is something in it.

ELKS ASK TAFT TO START

Honolulu Elks are hoping to have
President Taft touch a button in the
White House to give the signal here
for the opening of their Carnival on
the eve of Washington's birthday.
Taft is an Elk, and it was decided
yesterday by the executive committee
on carnival affairs to send a request
to him, through Honolulu lodge and
through the grand lodge, asking him
to start things. 1t he consents, direct
connections will be made, by Western
Union and cable wires, between the

PROFIT SHARING.

EDITOR starr was pleased to
learn while on Maui short time ago
that one of the plantations there had
adopted a system of profit sharing,
something that l have been advocat-
ing for a long time past
But this system, at this plantation,
stops, where in my opinion it should
begin. In other words, it only applies
to the high salaried men, and leaves
out altogether the laboring class.
Now, as a rule, there is no trouble
about getting the, higher salaried men,
or in getting them TO take an inter
est in their work, which is not the
case with laborers. Indeed, so far as

CRAVE MENACE
Of THE DAY
MOSQUITOES

DR.. A. N. Sinclair sounded another
' arning about the mosquito, at the
meeting of the Red Cross Society
yesterday afternoon, in the Office of
Judge Dole He declared that It was
imperative that Honolulu get rid of
mosquitoes. Under present conditions,
with SO many of them here, yellow
fever or malaria, if once brought
ashore, would ruin the country. AS
malaria is not a quarantined disease,
its menace is more imminent, said
the doctor
Tho doctor suggested legislative ac-
Son to start the campaign against

WHERE MAINLAND CAMPAIGN METHODS
RESEMBLE OR DIFFER FROM HAWAII

Most of the recent State campaigns
have been distinguished by a change
from the o'd-fashioned campaigning of
our fathers. Indeed, one accustomed
to the torchlight professions of the
campaigns in which Mr.. Blaine was
prominent figure might have consider
able difficulty in finding himself as
much exercised emotionally as he was
then. In truth, the country has pass
ed from the emotional to the intellec-
tual stage. The sign is evident in the
small use of professions, parades,
bands of music, and red fire. Seldom
has one seen any man wearing but
ton with the name and picture of his
favorite candidate on it. Seldom
has one seen the formerly familiar
flags and banners spanning the streets,
and even the portraits of the candi.
dates for Office and flaming posters on
the walls and fences are not scattered
broadcast as they once were. 1t is
presumable that a contributory cause
for this change of things is that the
campaign contribution laws are more
or less closely followed, and that there
has not been as much money for use
as in former years. In place of the
old popular appeal there has been the
introduction of another kind. 1t has
been brought about largely by the
newspaper, and also to a certain ex-

SUGGEST LADIES
RUN THE AUTOS

The lecture of Edward Browne
of Boston, delivered to women of
the Woman's club at the public Ii
brary last night, brought together a
fair sized audience. The lecture
contained a review of the progress
and evolution of the moral eleva-
ton of woman and notwithstand-
ing the interruptions of the street
car traffic which renders the lee
ture rooms undesirable for a pub
lie forum, the audience listened
with attention to the philosophy,
sarcasm and wit of the speaker
when he pronounced the cities of
Boston, New York and Spokane
as the acme of ugliness, indicating
that the lines of beauty in archi-
lecture destroyed by the selfish in
terests of skyscraper monstrosities
affect and retard the morals as well
as the beauty of holiness.
Attorney James Finlay said that
the evolution of unselfishness and
courtesy has been set back a de-
cade by the invention of the auto
mobile, which has destroyed bill
lion dollars of public roads in
Europe and America by reckless
driving, and no one can tell how
to restrain the danger unless the
ladies themselves insist on taking
charge of this twentieth century
car of Juggernaut.

RAIDER DIES AFTER A
LONG FAST OF 80 DA US
(By United Press Leased Wire)

SEATTLE, May 12-L. E. RAIDER
manager of the Sound Pacific Lum-
Der Co. and former member of the
state legislature, is dead today,
after abstaining from food and
water for 80 days, under the belief
that it was the only method of cur
ing stomach and liver trouble, with
which he was afflicted.
RAIDER took the treatment under
the direction of DR.. Linda Burfield
Hazard, a woman physician who
emphasizes fasting as a cure for
many diseases.
The humane officers and police
did their best to take RAIDER from
DR.. Hazards care, but she spirited
him away.
Today she issued a signed state
ment in which she says he had been
given up as hopeless by orthodox
physicians when she took the case
which should contradict any
charges that her treatment was re-
sponsible for his death. She charges
the humane officers and police with
weakening the patient in their at.
tempts to take him away against
his will

Elliott turned loose. Glider then

send him to Medical Lake, which
they had already threatened, and
he advised Elliott that he drop the

ACTUAL SLAVERY
IN CHINA ENDS
(By United Press Leased Wire)

(By United Press Leased Wire)
WASHINGTON, May 12.-Actual
slavery in the Chinese empire and
the purchase or sale of human be-
ings under any preteXt, has been
ended by imperial rescript, accord
ing to dispatches received today by
the state department.
Certain forms of compulsory
service apparently escape the
terms of the edict, however.
The retainers of the Manchu
princes are not to be liberated, but
they no longer may be called slaves.
Their status and that of the
Manchu household slaves is bet
tered by the new law.
