Superintendent Campbell's an
nouncement of an additional charge
for lawn irrigation is the first note
of a foolish campaign to destroy the
beauty of Honolulu homes. There
is no need for this action The pub
lie has not called for It. The water
works of this city are not being OPP
Grated at a loss. The whole thing
is a fool attempt to turn one of the
departments Of the government into
a money-making institution and fur
nishes another forcible argument for
the speedy transfer of the Honolulu
water works from the control of the
Territory, where 1t has been out
rageously mismanaged, to the City
and County of Honolulu. where the
taxpayers will at least be saved
from the exhibition now presented
of browning the monumental and ex-
pensiye follies of Nuuanu dam with
an arbitrary order forcing house
holders to new expense for the priv
ilege of Keeping their lawns green

GOOD FOR new YORK, Why NOT
FOR HAWAII?

Every theoretical supporter Of
good government in Honolulu said
hear. hear" in loud voice after
reading the declaration of Govern
or Hughes of New York against the
corrupt men and corrupt forces that
have been brought into the lime
light again in his State. How many
Of these theorists believe that Gov
ernor Hughes solution of the reign
OF error may be "all right for New
York" but does not apply to Ho-
nolulu.
We commend the good government
forces OF this city and Territory to
a perusal of what Governor Hughes
said. always bearing in mind who
II was that defeated the direct pri-
mary movement in two Legislatures
elected by the people of Hawaii.
II am" he said, "a Republican,
strongly attached TO my party and
earnest In the desire for Republi can

Of honest representatives of the
people"
To remedy the foul conditions
Which are known to exist the Gov
e nor advocates publicity and d.
rect primaries, and this is what the
self-assertive supporters of real good
government in Hawaii should care
fully take home to themselves. THE
single aim" declared Governor
Hughes. "of political corruptionists
is to place in office men who will do
their bidding. upon whom they can
depend to further their interests,
These generally are not party inter-
ests, but purely personal interests,
and the stamp of the dollar is on
most of them.
II favor plan of direct nomina-
tions by which party candidates for
elective Offices shall be chosen di-
rectly by the secret vote of the party
voters. also favor the election ot
members OF party committees by the
direct vote of the party voters"
Let the people of Hawaii who are
just plainly honest remember that
the most successful, though not al
ways open, opposition to the direct
primary law in this Territory has
come during two sessions OF the Leg
islature from the persons loudest in
their calls for good government,
which Is to them government by Il
few OF u.s..
That is the brand of government
that has corrupted New York.

people of the state resented Roosc-
velt's interference and the only The
odore has never regalned his pop
ularity in Wisconsin.
Now Taft is said to be following
in the route marked for those who
do the right thing at the wrong
time. Wisconsin names its United
States Senators in the direct pri-
mary. and If. as reported. President
Taft stumps the state against La
Toilette, there will be real trouble
for Mr.. Taft and the Republican
party in Wisconsin.
Some of our elder statesmen seem
to be forgetting in these days that
the Republican party has held its
strength and gained It's greatest sue
cesses by being sufficiently elastic to
meet public opinion on national
questions and thus be thoroughly
representative.
One of the secrets of Roosevelt's
great success was that he knew
when TO quit II he found himself
going contrary to the general drift
of public sentiment. La Follette's
career Is handwriting on the wall.
He Is the original Progressive Re-
publican. Despised as he may be
| by good men and stalwarts, II Is
nevertheless a fact that he was the
only man in Taft's Republican ma
tional convention who created any
enthusiasm; he was the only man
In whose favor a stampede was
threatened. La Toilette was "in-
surging" long before Beveridge.

good men saw the light and were

Taft or the Republican party Such

Political parties from the very ma.
ture of popular government must be
responsive to public opinion IL they
expect to meet success. And that
applies to the little politics of Ha.
wall as well as the great national
affairs in which the Presidents, ex-
Presidents and Senators figure.

La TOILETTE and TAFT.

Coincldent with the report that
President Taft will not visit Indian
apolis on account OF his fear that
he might cause trouble in the Re
publican party comes the story that
Mr.. Taft will endeavor to prevent
the reelection of Senator La Fol-
lette.
This Is mighty dangerous bust
ness in which the President is en-
gaging, and from more than one, in
dication he and the stalwarts In
whose behalf he appears to be act
ing stand good chance to get the
worst of 1t. The temper of the In
diana Republicans is shown in the
tariff plank OF their platform that
so displeases Mr., Taft, Beyeridge
is not leading the van SO much as
he is shaping his course to meet
public opinion.
History has proved that 1t is q
very hard matter to Brighten La Fol-
lette. Roosevelt had an experience
at that and came off second best
