Hawaii Is Just as much a part OF
the United States as California or
New York or any other part of the
Union. II the Japs should ever be
foolish enough to attack Hawaii, they
would be ATTACKING the whole United
States, and they have too much good
sense to do that. Besides. Uncle Sam
Is putting Honolulu and other places
in fine condition, Strong fortifica
lions are being ppt up. and 1t would
indeed be foolhardy for any nation t
try conclusions with the United States
anywhere.
The Japanese have their peculiar
tiles, like all other people. They are
great consumers OF rice, and there Is
lots Of rice grown In Hawaii. The
japanese. however, would not, under
any circumstances purchase their rice
in Hawaii. They claim 1t Is not good !;

WONDERS NEVER CEASE.

The wise declaration that statis-
tics are not facts is one of the most
important that has yet been thrown
into the. controversy over the coast
wise shipping law. Y
1t will PROFESSIONALLY have great
influence in Washington" where the
members of Congress will be inter-
ested in this new status of the case
and perhaps be misled from the ul-
innate aim OF the coastwise law sus-
pensionists to place the Transports
tion lines between this Territory
and the mainland in the hands OF
Japan.
This remarkable blow that has
been struck will 80 thoroughly upset
the basis on which Congress has act
ed during all these years that we
have no doubt 1t will be hailed by
the benighted members as another
instance. OF the Territory Of Hawaii
showing the American people how to
run things.
1t is true that Hawaii has for
many years been run ON the plan
that statistics are not facts, because
these Islands have for 80 many years
been under the control of govern
ment "of, by and for few Of u.s."
After Congress RECEIVERS from the
spasm occasioned by this new plan
OF reaching knowledge Of exact con.
ditions, It will undoubtedly turn its
attention to a sitting of the DELHI
crate falsehood and misrepresenta-
tion with which the local suspen-
sionists have weakened their cause
Members Of Congress who have
been out of the woods a reasonably
long time know very we'll that even
with the remarkable accommodations
that exist for transcontinental trav'
oil, It is necessary for persons to
book for accommodation on trains In
advance of the day of departure, and
then they do not always get what
is wanted. And as for the trans

is the condition existing in ocean
transportation where the dearly-be-
loved foreigner has absolute sway
and the American ships are as COM
pletely wiped of the face of the

have them in the Pacific, IL they
have their way. J
We feel almost certain that Con-
gress, in Its appreciation OF truth,
will not be Immediately stampeded

liquor question OF Hawaii. Mr.. Nc.
Clellan's letter is as follows:
WASHINGTON, d. c.,
Feb. 16, 1910.
The Merchants Association,
Honolulu, Hawaii.
Dear Sirs:-In accordance VEN your
cablegram to the Delegate ami on his
direct request I appeared before tho
Senate Committee on Friday last and
made an argument against the enact
ment of any liquor laws by Congress.
At that time sought to make II clear
to the Committee that your Organiza-
ton was not to be understood as TAX
ing stand either for or against pro-
hibition as such. but that your ac-
ton was based on the principle Of
home rule on all matters OF local adj
ministration.
Although the Committee had already
voted to report favorably the prohibit
ton bill, they decided on Friday to
table that measure and to report a
Joint Resolution providing for spe-
cial election In July to have the ques-
ton passed on by the Electorate, That
Joint Resolution Is to be introduced
by Senator >Depew upon his return
from New York on Friday.
Inasmuch as that Resolution furth.
er provides that II prohibition Is or
dered It shall be enacted by the Legis
lature Of the Territory instead of by
Congress the result would seem to be
a complete victory for the principle

Too much should not be expected
of the vicious enemies of an Ameri-
can merchant marine. Consequently
It is natural for them to represent
the failure of the Canadian-Austra-
Ian steamer to accommodate its
share of local passenger traffic as
having no bearing on the proposed
change in American laws. To
the intelligent American. how
ever. who still has some re-
gard for his country. 1t is an
example of the very poor service that
Is given this port by through fer
eign lines, in whose behalf. on the
San Francisco and Seattle route. It
is proposed to remove the present
protection given American ships.
Foreign steamship operators will use
the suspension Of the coastwisc ship
ping law To, kill on what American
ships are left in these waters. and
then the people, of Honolulu will be
entirely at the mercy of the allen
ship and alien owners, whose ser
vice does not now meet the situation
where they are absolutely free to
carry all the passengers they wish
to and from this port. 1t is we'll to
remember that the failure Of this
foreign line to do Its duty by the
travelling public was put forward by
the suspensionists as one Of the rea'
sons for attacking American ships
Just how they figure American re-
sponsibility only suspensionist can
explain.

COL. sam PARKER
Tells HAWAII FACTS
Believes Islands Are Safe
From Foreign A,
Attack
Especial Correspondence.)

tSpeClal COrreSpOnuenCe.D
WASHINGTON. February 15.-Col.
Sam Parker was interviewed by
couple OF local reporters on Hawaii
day or two ago, and he expressed
some Interesting views particularly
with reference to the Japanese in Ha-
wall. To the reporter Of the Post, the
Colonel said:
1T is peculiar that the japanese in
Hawaii never under any consideration
will buy rice grown by the Chinese"
said Col. Samuel Parker, OF Honolulu,
who was the prime minister of Queen
Liliuokalani, at the Arlington.
Every pound of rice used by the
Japanese in Hawaii Is imported by
them. and they cheerfully pay the
price plus the duty. They claim that
Japanese rice is better, purer. more
nutritious than the rice cultivated and
grown in the Hawaiian Islands by the
Chinese, who, the Japanese claim, do
not understand the art Of growing that
staple"
| Col. Parker Is not opposed to the
japanese as resident of Hawaii.
Where would our Islands be Il we
did not have the Japanese laborers
for our sugar plantations?" observed
Col. Parker. There is no other race
that will work as industriously and
steadily as the Japanese race. They
are not. as has been charged, stirring
up sedition and instruction against
the United States. They attend strict
ly to their own business and are law
abiding and desirable citizens. It Is
absurd to argue that the Japanese
have any designs on Hawaii. II might
as well be said that Japan has designs
on California or New York. Hawaii
is a part Of the United States, and IL
Japan attacked Hawaii II would be
attacking this government. Besides,
Japan would find that she had hard
proposition II. she attempted to sub
due Hawaii. The Notifications this
government is constructing in Ha.
wall will make the island well-nigh
impregnable.
1.-THE Hawaiians are greatly pleased
with the administration Of President
Taft" added Col Parker His ap.
pointment Of three judges for the isl.
ands has met the approval OF the
people.
Native Hawaiians are still devoted
to their former queen, and believe this
government ought to provide some
compensation for her."
Il To the Herald reporter, the Colone
had this to say:
THE Hawaiian people are proud Of
, their American citizenship" said Col
Sam Parker, OF Honolulu. at the Ar
lington. last night. Col. Parker, who
was the last prime minister Of the
kingdom of Hawaii under Queen Lii
uokalani, Is n Nfull-blooded native OF
those islands, and is over six feet tall
and. Notwithstanding his great age, II
as strong and alert as a man many
years his junior. Col. Parker said
I'VE are not afraid of the Japanese
In Hawaii-there is no reason why We
should be. They are good and law
abiding inhabitants, thrifty and pro
gressive. The islands could hardl.
get along without them. The shgal

SHIPS OF 10000 TONS.
Cunard Company Will Soon Start
Building Giant Vessels.

London. June 2s.-The Cunard Steam
ship Company VIII soon start building
vessels of 10000 tons. The first steamer
will be laid down in a few weeks. and it
is expected she will be finished in three
years. The builders are not announced.
The decision to build these monster
vessels is apparently connected with the
Mersey dock boards determination to
construct a new dock at Liverpool with
quay berths suitable for ships 1000 feet
long and with deep-water entrances.
It is noteworthy that the tonnage pro-
posed by the Cunard Company eelipses
the White Star steamers Olympic and
Titanic, now being built at Belfast. by
5000 tons. The Olympic and Titanic are
nearly l5.0O0 tons larger than the Lusi-
tania and Mauretania.
