One of the best things | have ever
read on the proper functions of a
newspaper is the report of remarks
made before a meeting of the Pacific
Coast Womans Press Association.
And, judging by the name of the
speaker, it was a horrid man. Two
of the gentle members, candid enough
to offer preface to the effect that they
did not know anything of the sub
iect, had delivered addresses on MO
dern Journalism. They laid criticism
good and hard over the press of to-
day. One of them as reported "ques-
toned whether the want"-that of an
honest ewspaper-"would ever be
supplied, and deplored the fact that
the truth was frequently sacrificed in
favor of dramatic effects and pictures
que language" The reporter of the
meeting proceeds: Nobody being IN
the programme who could give inside
information concerning the meals
that have been omitted, the nesh lhdI
has been lost and the dispositions
that have been spoiled while scribes
are verifying their stories, Mrs Hey-
nemann took the floor and proceeded
to refer to journalistic indiscretions
in the way of advertising, divorce pro-
ceedings and revelations of crime.
She concluded by reading from a
number of newspaper clippings head
lines which she regarded as injurious
to the young"
Then the horrid man butted in-his
significant name being John D. jury
and effected a general rescue by ex-
planning that it is only the dramatic
and picturesque that constitutes news,
being a departure from the ordinary

attention of the audience to the fact
that a newspaper cannot consistently
run a list every morning of the mar

together in harmony, as It is hardly

serve no useful purpose to mention in
each issue the names of those per-

A local chronicler the other day
related, as if it were something note
worthy, that there was an inquiry
from the East about Hawaiian hides.
1t is funny how things that are an
cient often crop up as novelties. The
sale of Hawaiian hides in the East
nearly thirty years ago produced IN
American transcontinental railroad
ing an event that is historic. Tn
was the transmission of a carload f
hides from the Pacific to the Atlantic
without breaking bulk on the route
It was a consignment of Hawaiian
hides and it was the first carload OF
freight which ever passed from ocean
to ocean, at least in that direct on,
without q shift from the original car
This fact learned, shortly after tn
event, from the accountant of the
tannery to which the hides were con-
signed.

Rev. E. w. Thwing has been heard
from in the last mail from the Orient.
The Star has received two broadsides
Of newspaper print from him. One is
a report of his doings as general sec
rotary for the Far East of the Inter-
national Reform Bureau, in which ca
pacity he arrived in Canton in January
of last year to plan for a permanent
organization of the Bureaus effort in
China, with a view especially to aid
in China's efforts to overthrow the
opium habit.
Accounts are given of his visits to
provincial viceroys and other officials,
from which it would appear that Mr..
Thwing is conducting a strenuous
campaign against cigarettes. Follow
ing are extracts:
The visit at Marking was largely
given to the schools and colleges Of the
city where addresses were made to the
students II. e. Viceroy Tuan Fang
gave great assistance in this work.
He appointed two of his taotais, Cam
tonese men, to accompany the secre-
tary to the various government schools.
Cantonese was used and these men
Interpreted into Mandarin. At one
Military College, the director had been
in Japan and spoke japanese well. So
here an address was given to the 400
military students in japanese, and the
director interpreter into Mandarin. The
men seemed greatly interested in the
anti-opium movement, and also In the
subject of cigarette smoking. One
young man after hearing of the danger
to health of cigarette smoking, and
OF the poison which was thus brought
into the body said. 81 will never
smoke another" 1t is very unfortunate
that some of the American teachers In
the government schools are themsel-
yes slaves to the cigarette habit so
their influence is hurtful when it should
be helpful to the students.
On the morning Of leaving Nank
ing, it was pleasant surprise to find
a representative of the viceroy at the
R. R. station to bid cordial good bye.
He presented His Excellencys large
red card about a foot long.
The same cordial help and good will
was shown at Tientsin, where is per-
haps the most important Viceregal
post in the Empire. A call was made
on the taotai and on H. e. the Viceroy
Yang. While speaking of the great
fight against opium and the deep in
terest Americans had in China's eff
forts at reform, the Viceroy was
smoking a cigarette He was a little
startled wnen the remark was made
that China should also fight against
cigarettes" 1t was then explained that
20 millions a day were being sent
abroad in China to do great injury to
China's young people, and to keep
China poor, Whether the older ones
smoked or not the effort should be
made to protest Chinas chilrden. lie

New York boosted of her Amen
corner, San Francisco her Palace
Court, but Honolulu has the distinc-
ton of having "millionaire's table"
in the famous table d'hote lunchroom
on lower Fort street Every day
firm II to l, sugar barons, preachers,
lawyers and jurists, editors, reporters,
business men, politicians and others
gather to talk over the news of the
day and debate upon ancient and mo-
dern philosophy, and make deals
which realize millions if ever con-
summated.
The feeling of good fellowship
reigns supreme in this old lunoning
place, and if every matter talked
OVER there was published the present
local newspapers would not be large
enough to contain all of the news.
To see such men as the Dillingham;
father and son-L. A. Thurston, Phil
osopner Jake Brown, DR.. Alexander
and son, Robert Levers, Justice De
Bolt, Parson McKeever, Cotton King
Van Valkenberg, Banker Spalding,
Denison and Desky, brokers and en-
gineers, merchants and city fathers
scientists and capitalists, mechanics
and shipping men, sitting down at
their midday meal discussing affairs
of state and business, makes the cas-
ual guest feel that he is lucky to be
even present in the same place with
such men of brilliance and power.
Several times the place has been on
the verge of being closed up, but let
us hope that the day will never come
when this gathering of men will be
the inner man and to talk over the to-
pics of the day. When P. c, Jones
was the business motor power of c..
Brewer & Co., he would be seen there
without coat on, and it was there
that the late Chief Justice Judd
lunched. For a short time the lat

There does not appear to be any
occasion in Honolulu for municipal
interference with millinery. It was
different in Chicago Among other
evidence cited on behalf of hatpin re-
preston there was the case of a wo-
man who had an eye put out by a hat
pin worn by another. SO the Chicago
ordinance is not masculine tyranny
but rather that highest of all chivalry,

years. He said he would present the
matter at the Foreign office in Picking
and see what could be done. He was
quite pleased to have visits made to
the many government schools in Tien-
tsin, and appointed one of his officials,
a Canton man, to go with the secretary
and arrange meetings with the students
at the various schools.
The customs trade reports, statisti-
cal SERIES for 1908, SHOW that in 1905
the gross import of cigarettes from
foreign countries was to a value of
4,427,171 tbs. In 1906 the value was
6,01S,lz9 tbs. In that year more than
half of the Cigarettes came from the
United States. 1t would not be so bad
if the use of cigarettes was confined
to men, but the greatest harm is found
in the fact that so many children are
acquiring the habit
Some three months of the year was
spent in Japan, where work was done
among the Chinese students who are
studying at Toxic. Addresses on tenn
perance were given to both the Chinese
and Japanese students in the great
educational center. An extended tour
was made in Northern and Southern
Japan, and over fifty addresses were
given in Japanese to the students at
the public schools and colleges, about
twenty thousand students being reach
ed in this sway. Some temperance So
cieties were started, and an effort
was made to get the young men OF
Japan to take strong stand against
beer drinking which is doing mich
harm in this island kingdom
From sheet entitled, Cigarettes
in Picking" Mr.. Thwing being named
as its author, the following except is
taken:
The visitor to Picking, as The ravels
along the great street from he east
gate to the west of the Chinese city,
will notice high up over the houses a
great sign board. 1t is American ad-'
vertising! On this board he will see
a large picture from 8 to 10 #. high,
of fierce looking foreigner, who
stands by cannon and holds a drawn
sword in his hand Over his head is
the word Pirate" BY the side of the
picture in clear Chinese characters are
the words "Ying" Mel" English"
American 1t is the sign of the great
Tobacco Trust which hopes soon to be
the largest business in China and
seeks to sell cigarettes to the millions
all over the Empire. Are the people
OF Christian England and America
glad to appear before the Chinese as
the Pirate of their money and their
health.
By the side of this Foreign Pirate
is another equally large picture of a
Rooster growing over cigarettes, as
if to say: THE American and Eng
fish Pirates have been successful!
With sword and cannon they have
come to your land, they are taking
millions of money, and leave you the
opium and cigarettes to ruin your
children. You are bound by a habit
most difficult to break and must con-
tinue to pay us your hard earned dol
lars. The Pirate is victorious! Ha

"Uglifler" is a new word coined by
former President Eliot of Harvard
to describe the billboard. While in
some cases in Honolulu the uglifier
conceals worse ugliness and more Of
it, and a careful regard for public
good taste has been observed in the
matter and manner of the advertising
it bears, yet there are some features
of the institution here which demand
modification. Here are some OF
them: The billboards are permitted
to stand too close to the sidewalks,
where they are a menace to life and
limb during the prevalence of high
winds. They are built too high, both
with regard to the danger just men
toned and because they make "blino
corners" that enhance the dangers
of automobile traffic. There are
enough of these produced by corner
structures of vested legitimacy, with
out the creation of new ones. Not
withstanding that some of the more
recently placed advertising of this
sort is near artistic 1 would respect
fully submit that our city fathers
when they get through with the or
dinances relating to civic architecture,
might wrestle with the problem of the
billboard. I am quite satisfied, as one
humble person, to leave our artistic
reputation in the keeping of the XII
lohana Art League.
