SOMETHING WRONG.

Since our last issue we have received
many words of encouragement for
the stand taken unde, Che head sIet
us Stamp it Out, 2 IA fefefence to the
quarantine question in this city.
which we pu cashed last week. Every
one, i. e. everyone whose eyesight
is not affected by the astigma-
tism of stubbornness,- can see that
there is screw loose. somewhere in
this city. Were the PILor to pub
lish some things currently reported
on the streets regarding this matter,
they would not be very complimentary
TO some people, and ''Plato, thou
reasonesh well" would not be applied
to many.
Loose quarantine methods-in some
instances no quarantine at all-and
deaths resulting nearly every week
will soon stir our people to action. If
we doubt not the sentiment mani
tested AS it is now one don't know
when he is being exposed to scarlet
fever, for, we are told, in most cases
members of families in which there
are cases of the disease are leaving
the house, attending to their work
down town and mingling with other
people, without any restriction. 1t is
criminal to allow such things. A
few years ago there was an epidemic
of what most people termed smallpox.
1t was mild and during the two win
tiers that it was present with us not a
death resulted that we can at pres
ent recall. The city council appro-
priated money for vaccination, and the
quarantine at that time was quite
strict and in some instances at least, a
man was stationed outside placarded
houses allowing no one to leave or enter
the house but the neutrality-suspicious..
Now, with disease among US, which
/ is removing our fairest children and
useful people, there appears to be a
laxity OF quarantine and iumigation
that causes grumbling all over the
city. Just who is to blame we are
not prepared to make affidavit.
1t may not be any one particular per-
son, but wherever the blame lies it
should be corrected at once. This is
a matter which should interest every
person in the city. When some
| human gorilla tells you there is no
danger of contagion after one has
been out in the open air for half an
| hour, after being exposed to the dis
ease, as we are told certain profes.
sional man has said to people, take as
much stock in the story as you would
to any statement about the planet
Saturn being made of Yorkshire pud-
ding.

Cold Storage Figures.

While the housewives are being
driven by the high prices to boycott
meat, here is what the Ice and Re
frigeration Blue Book says is being
held in cold storage:
Fourteen million cattle.
Six million calves.
Twenty-Five million sheep and
lambs
Fifty million hogs.
According to these figures from the
official guide book, circulated only
among the cold storage men, there is
in storage one entire animal for each
adult in the United States, with
enough whole animals left over to
give two to each family.
This meat is being held in 55S cold
storage plants. In addition, it may
interest the worried housekeepers to
know that in seventy-eight fish freez-
ing plants in the country there are
fish waiting to be doled out that are
valued at s25, 900, 600.
In other cold storage plants during
any year now, according TO the storage
mems own statistics, the struggling
wage-earner win find:
One billion eight hundred million
eggs.
One hundred and thirty million
pounds of butter.
Fruits valued at s50,00o.0O
Then, besides, there are millions Of
pounds of pctotoes, onions, thousands
of turtles, eels, cases of canned goods,
and milk, butter and cheese valued at
500. 900, 900.
The total value Of meat and food
stuffs placed in cold storage during q
year at present is, according to the
figures of the storage concerns, close
TO three billion dollars.

Supplant1ng the Parents.

The Los Angeles News prints the
following on regulative demands be-
ing attempted in many ways, relative
to the health and education of chill
dren by other than their parents, and
which the PILOT is requested to re-
publish:
IAN evening paper says that Mime
sofa is a convert to the idea that
teachers of the public schools shall
have the right to decide what pupils
may enter the university.
This is twin brother to the idea
which is being spread by the doctors
of the medical trust that they shall
have the legal right to decide what
children are fit physically to attend
the schools and what pupils are fit to
enter college.
And there you are again, Mr.. Citi-
zen and Common People. You are
merely growing children to be taken
charge of by profession of teachers
and a profession of doctors. Educa-
ton is becoming compulsory and you
are to have no say as to books, methods,
times, places, or the institutions they
shall attend. Higher education is to
be privilege accorded the selected
few.
"You are to have no say as tc the
physical care and condition of your
children. They are to be vaccinated,
innoculated. anti-toxined, Pasteurized
sterilized, disinfected and operated
upon for defective eyes, ears, noses,
'vermifuge' appendices, brains, etc.
Portions of their brains are to be re-
moved to cure hereditary evil teaden-
cies and they are even to be emascu-
lated and otherwise carved, cut and
| mutilated for life at the will ana the
say of medical board or medical
| Inspector.
''This whole tendency has become
alarming and is in some respects be-
coming infamous. If it continues,
fifty years hence will witness the
most thoroughly diffused and exasper-
ating tyranny ever known. 1t will
not be the tyranny of a king or an aut-
ocrat, but tyranny of trusts, associa-
tions and oligarchies operating in
the name of the majority. They will
secure the passage of laws allowing
every devil-doctor in the medical trust
and every bigoted and fanatical re-
former, teacher and preacher the
legal right to try his experiments up
on the people.
''The Los Angeles News asserts that
the present tendency in nation. state,
district and municipality, is to put
control, put all government, in the
hands of the few as against the many
in the hands of political, social, pro-
fessional and scientific cliques and
! 20 remove control and management
as far from the common people as
possible.
Nothing is so much needed today
as a return to Americanism, which is
the salt and the salvation of the re-
public Jeffersonism and Lincolnism
are fast becoming back numbers

Observation of nature has often sug-

LOOKING FOR A
PHILIPPINE SCANDAL
Martin Succeeds in First Move
Against Attorney-General
Ii Wickersham.

III WASHINGTON, April U.s. The house
today adopted the resolution, introduced
early in the month by Representative
Martin of Colorado, calling upon Secre-
tary of War Dickinson for information
regarding the sale of fifty.fve thousand
acres of the Friars Estate land in the
Philippines to a representative of the
Havemeyers and the sugar trust. In
introducing this resolution, which calls
upon the department for all the CORE
spondence in the transaction, Martin
made a sensational attack upon the at
torney-general, intimating that the Off
cial IS former position as counsel for the
big sugar interests influenced his de-
cision that the sale of this acreage to
an individual was legal.
A provision exists in the organic act

MAUI POLICE
ARE ALL PURE
Grand Jury Investigates Use Of
Third Degree-Rcports
Nothing Doing.

The Maui grand jury has investigated
the stories of the use of the third de.
gree by Maui police authorities, and has
given everybody concerned clean bill
of health. Or, as n lawyer recently re-
turned from the Maui term of the cir
cult court puts it, the grand jury has
applied a plentiful coat of whitewash
to all parties.
1t is reported from Maui that when
The Advertiser containing the stories
of the charges against Judge Kings
bury and those against the Maui police
officials arrived at Wailuku there were
great doings. Judge Kingsbury exhibit
ed some perturbation for while, and
then shut himself up in his chambers,
to which he summoned the attorneys
one by one and read to them, with a
show of the greatest indignation, the
two stories.
When court was convened there was
an atmosphere that could be felt. The
Judge on his bench glowered; the at
trneys shivered; the court officers shook
in their boots; the grand jury quailed.
The Judge, in as awful voice as he
could command, announced that sour
rilous stories concerning the good repute
of Maui were circulating in Honolulu,
and he demanded that an immediate
investigation be made, to clear Maui IS
skirts of the slanderous imputations.
The grand jury must investigate, and
do it quick.
The grand jury did. 1t made one of
the speediest investigations ON record,
and returned to the courtroom and re-
ported nothing doing. All the Maui
officials were pure as the unspotted
snow. The third degree was term
utterly unheard of on the Valley Island.
Everything was fair and square and
above board.
Incidentally the grand jury handed
out roast to Hugh Coke, editor of
the Maui News, as the dissemination of
the scurrilous tales.
But Coke didn It turn hair, and it
is secretly reported that he rather en-
joys the situation and has retracted
nothing.

waters of Waikiki are not to be under

Does she take her luck where she
finds it7 Twice in the past week l
have seen youthful talent lavished out
upon amiable but wholly undemon-
strative audiences because the names
of the artists carried with them none
of the glamour of the Great White
Way, and because no metropolitan i'm
presario had set the seal of his ap-
proval. One hears of money being
raised to bring well known actors and
singers here. those whom we have read
about and should like to say that we
had seen. Once they too were work

way, wherever we find it.
Your city is not devoid of people
eager to applaud the artist when he IS
recognized, yet the Young Prince"
at the operahouse last Saturday after
noon saw the curtain descending on
some of his best effects amid the crack
ing of peanuts and bland, discursive
smiles on the faces of old and young.
Heart tragedies may be more fit for
evening audiences but it is doubtful
if George Webb has been properly
commended for following so ably in
the footsteps of Richard Mansfield.
On Thursday evening we gathered in
trepidhtion at the Young Hotel to
hear long program sung through by
an unknown girl from San Francisco,
we remained struck with admiration
before woman whose voice, beauty
and gift of temperament should make
her a rival to Mary Garden. Is your
city "starved for music" when no
one seems to think that Miss Linde-
man will give another concerto

to acclaim them; dare to give them
the applause they have earnedl
