BILL IN LEGISLATURE
Stand by The Advertiser
Now Practically
Endorsed.
(From Thurgday,s Advertiser.l

l.
Aroused to action by the danger
which lies dormant in the swamps and
insanitary spots of Honolulu, convinced
that there should be provided some
emergency fund to prevent, as well as
stamp out, epidemics in the Territory,
the house passed at first reading yes
terday afternoon bill, introduced by
Representative A. L. Castle, for the
appropriation of $25O,OOO, to be used
in making sanitary the vile breeding
pools of disease which dot the fairest
portion of the city
Following the line as advocated by
The Advertiser, the bill is supplemental
to Act 30, passed earlier in the session
of the legislature and signed by the
Governor. The bill as introduced is
short and to the point, also technical,
for on the face of it there is not much
more knowledge contained than the ap-
preparation figures.
Under this bill, should it pass, and
it will be rushed through the legisla-
ture, the board of health will be able
to start immediate proceedings to i'm
prove the sanitary conditions of the
city. The bill is strongly advocated by
the Governor, as well as by many other
influential citizens, who have endorsed
most heartily the stand The Advertiser
has taken that providing an emergency
health fund is one of the most import

only by reason of the fact that the two
nationalities do not mix.
Russians Also.
The Russians lnhabiting these places
are those left of the first great Russian
camp which squatted on the reclaimed
land year age, Immediately upon land
ing here from Siberia. The mat and
gunny sack shelters which at that time
did service for houses, have given way
to o queer conglomeration of shanties
constructed Of everything that the
owners could lay their hands on.
Oil cans and even tomato cans, odd
pieces of boards, sacks, canvas, bricks
and other material are patched together
sufficiently to keep out the rain, while
cooking is done in outside community
ovens. The houses are vile with vermin
and dirt. About eighty or hundred
inhabitants are left out Of the seven
hundred which moved like a small army
to this spot upon first arrival.
All of them must go. A list of those
who are paying rent to the Dowsett
Estate, the owner of the property, is
being made up, and the board of health
will reimburse these to the extent of
their paid rentals. The number of those
who have paid rent, however, is small,
and nearly all Hawaiians.
Hospital Full.
Notwithstanding the fact that eighty.
three contacts were released from quar-
antine hospital yesterday, that institu'
ton is still full to overcrowding. Those
released were the contacts from the first
new case, residents of the All Leong
block, at the corner of Queen and South
streets. All of them have been isolated
the required number of days and have
proved to be free from infection.
Their places were taken at once by
the thirty-one from the fgold mine, -
while it is probable that the ninety-one
now under guard in "Magoonville -
will be moved to the hospital today
when the Hustace lane contacts are re-
leased
The Magoonvile people are at pres.
ent forced to reside in their miserable
shacks at Kakaako, with armed guards
continually about to see that they stay
put, but as soon as the quarantine depot
is partially emptied they viii be taken
there. 1t is probable that they viii
never have a chance to move back into
the present shacks, for this district is
the next on the slate for stringent
cleaning, and the land must be filled in,
almost two feet, even if the shacks are
not destroyed.

Treaties Unbacked BY Force

TWO PRESENT WARS ARE
CITED As STRONG EXAMPLES
China Has Played the Pacifier Until
She Has Neither Power at Home or

Strong Navy.

New York. Nov. 2.-rhe war be-
tween Italy and Turkey proves the
utter inefHciency Of paper treaties
when they are untacked by force, ac-
Gording to an article by Theodore
Roosevelt on Arbitration, Pretense
and Reality" in the current number
OF the Outlook. Mr.. Roosevelt thinks
the real friends Of peace in this
country ought to be able to profit by
the events that happened in China
and In the Mediterranean during
these fall months since the arbitration
treaty was considered in the senate"
MI. Roosevelt says:
THE complete absence of militar-
Ism IN China and China's effort to re-
~ purely on pacific measures in deal
ing with all foreign powers have not
only caused 1t to lose various prov
inces to various powers within the
last few decades, but have had the
most far reaching economic misery
at home, and moreover has had the
effect Of depriving it Of the means
OF keeping order within its boundar-
les.
"As for the war between Italy and
Turkey" continues Mr.. Roosevelt. "I
am not now concerned with its eth
ical Justification. Personally believe
Tripoli should fall under European
control.
But this is not the point" says the
former president. "The point is that
this war proves the utter inefficiency
Of paper treaties when they are un-
backed by force-the utter folly Of
those who believe that these paper
treaties accomplish any useful pur-
pos, In the present stage Of the
worlds development when there is no
force behind them"
Mr.. Roosevelt saye
Turkey has all the protection it
Is possible to give her by these paper
treaties and yet all these treaties thus
guaranteeing her against disarma-
ment are not worth as much as a
single gunboat Of the smallest size
the minute that it becomes worth
while for any serious opponent to at
tack her. If Turkey had feet as
strong as her: army, no man Of any
sense believes that the war would
have occurred"

Nine Deaths in Family and

Chicago, Nov. 2.-The possibility
that Jealousy might have played part
In the death of Arthur Bissonette, a
Chicago policeman. today proved .
new factor in the investigation being
conducted by the coroner and the DO
lice department.
The fling Of the patrolman's will
shattered the belief that Mrs. Louise
Vermilya. under police surveillance
in connection with Bissonettes death
and with whom Bissonette boarded,
was engaged to the officer. The will
showed Miss Lydia Rivard, the daugh-
ter OF farmer at Marshall, Mimi, to
be the fiancee and chief beneficiary.
Although Mrs. Vermilya's name ap-
peared on the documents as a witness
she declared she knew nothing of it.
Whether action will be taken
port Of toxicologists who are exam
lining Bissonette's viscera.
Nine deaths are included in the long
list with which Mrs. Vermilya's name
has been connected, including two

No positive evidence Of crime has been
uncovered.
From letters received by the police
