men of Honolulu got this week from
the agents who work in secret. A
letter to President Waldron OF the
Merchants Association from Secre.
tary Mcclellan developed the fact
that more tampering with the Ma
huka Federal building site has been
done in secret. II seems that the
Treasury Department has decided
that the present site is not large
enough for the building. 1t also
appears that confidential cablegram
from Kuhio to President Morgan OF
the Chamber of Commerce resulted
in the Governor obtaining an esti-
mate on the money that would be
required to condemn the whole block
through TO Fort street. All this had
been kent 20 quiet that the whole
town was very much aroused on
learning the facts. There has beer
so much jockeying on this Federal

Mr.. THURSTON'S PRIVILEGE.

Lorrin A. Thurston. rising to a
question of privilege at the meeting
of the Merchants Association, made
two interesting statements.
He said he was very much the
Hilo Railway. as he is one of its
largest stockholders and the presi'
dent.
He also confessed for the first time
In open meeting that the Adver-
tiser 10 my paper" For once he
made only one effort to excuse the
utterances of his paper as being the
result of someone whom he could not
control.
But he felt very badly when his
old friends and acquaintances who
have known him 50 well for years
also got up In open meeting and call
ed a spade a spade. He spoke with
much heat when these old friends,
who must know him best, could not
understand why the man who was
very much the Hilo Railway should
be acting from such broad. humani-
tartan, philanthropic motives.
Then he told how he had made
his paper keep its mouth shut on the
interstate commerce law and It's APP
plication to the Inter-Island steam
ship traffic. And he declared with
vehemence: am here because I'm
here and have the quits" To say
what think or words to that effect.
Thurston felt very much hurt that
anyone should doubt the purify and
sanctity of his motives.
And all of 1t was very funny. in
view OF the fact that there was prob
ably not a man in the room whose
motives had not been attacked, or
whose acts had not been deliberately
misrepresented. by the mouthpie2e
that Thurston spoke OF as MY
paper"
Not a man heard Thurston's com
plant against the manner of his
treatment who has not seen and pos.

PROHIBlTI0NISTS FOR LAWLESS'
ness.

Prohibitions organ persists in try
ing to make the people believe that
the issue OF the plebiscite on July
26 IL 81 decision between the radical
prohibitionists and vicious wiskey
dealers OF the Territory.
The same organ tried to make the
business men of the community be-
lieve that the laws of the country
should be shaped according to the
ideas of one of two contending trans.
portation companies.
But the people think differently
They think clearly. They understand
the issues. They intend to record
their judgment on the basis OF COM
munity interests, and that Is what
disconcerts the Prohibitionists as 1t
has discon erted every other interest
that has striyen secretly or openly to
saddle specialtles and experiments
upon the community through Federal
channels.
Prohibltionlsts claim with one
bitaAh Nhah nv
claims that Prohibition prohibits, and
In the next they declare that Prohi-
hilton does prohibit sufficiently to
satisfy their ideas, and II their pro-
posais are not accepted the whole
community will be given over to dive
keepers.
Now, the common sense people of
the Territory of Hawaii have no in
tention of allowing a vicious breach
of the ordinary rules of law and or
der. true temperance, or respect for
the law, by adopting measures of
either the radical Prohibitionists or
the dive keepers. all of whom are on
an equality as agents of lawlessness.
They will stand by the laws that
have been developed by experience In
Hawaii as best adapted to our con
ditions. and most readily responsive
TO what the people as whole want.
Government by few OF us" has
been invariably and consistently
turned down by the citizens of the
Territory OF Hawaii, and Prohibition
comes under that heading. II there

New Land Commission.

One of the most important acts OF
the Governor previous to his depar-
ture for the mainland was to select
the members of the land commission
that will pass on all land transac-
lions under the amended Organic Act.
The commission is composed OF A.
w. Carter, w. A. Kinney, Samuel C.
Dwight, Jacob F. Brown, Frank An
drade and Richard Trent. Somehow
the commission has not created any
great amount o. enthusiasm, but for
lust what reasons is hard to say.
Perhaps Honolulu Is hard to satisfy.
A good many were surprised that the
Governor did not name J. w. Pratt.
the former Land Commissioner, and
some feel that Carter has too much
landed interests himself to make him
an entirely unprejudiced factor.
There Is one thing about it,, how
ever; the Governor has gone outside
members of the charmed circle that
have passed around important COM
missions for the last generation in a
'ort of eeny-meeny-miny- style.

We feel that, the system OF col.

fair condition, and a system should
be devised whereby the independent
stores would take no more risk in
collections than do the plantation
stores.

recommend giving the same as wide
publicity as possible. both for the
consideration Of the plantation in

LITTLE HELP TO SCHEME
BY Foreign Governmental Win Less
en- the Money Sent Abroad-Foms
for Reclamation Bonds Nearly
Ready.

Washington, Aug. 9.-By the end Of
this week, treasury officials expect to
lay before Secretary Maeyeagh the de.
tails Of the postal savings bond forms
and those for the new reclamation bonds
Samples Of the postal savings bonds
have been received at the treasury from
the bureau Of engraving. Those Of the
clamation bonds arc nearly ready.
The postal bonds are to be issued in
denominations Of $50 and multiples
thereof, to and including 500. The
question is whether they shall be regis.
tered or coupon bonds. The probabili-
ties are that the larger ones win be
registered, and the smaller coupon bonds.
II is expected to be some months after
the postal savings system is in operation
before the postal bonds are in demand.
As to the reclamation bonds, in view Of
the fact that the army engineers must
pass on projects before any Of the pro.
eeeds of the bonds can be utilized on
them, it is likely TO be year or more
before they are used.
Foreign governments are showing so
little readiness to give information to
the post office department concerning the
workings Of their postal laws. that the
suspicion is gaining ground here that
they are anxious to delay and hamper
the establishment OF these institutions.
Facts are being obtained as to details Of
management, such as would be useful
in this country in putting in the new
system with the utmost difficulty. Of.
fcials charged with the duty Of getting
this information find much trouble The
reason for this conduct, it is believed
here, is that now many millions Of dol
lars are sent by immigrants who have
been in this country for short time
back TO their relatives in Europe. Much
Of this is sent back to be put into the
postal savings banks abroad. II this
country establishes sound system, II
will follow that much Of the drain Of
Europe will be cut of.
