NO THEATERS
ON SUNDAY
Honolulu, March 2s. 1911.

HONOLULU, Mafcn 70, lJll'
Editor Star: beg to say that do
not believe that to open the theaters
on a Sunday would be a good thing
for Honolulu.
Indeed, can think of nothing that
could possibly be worse, except it,
were the open saloon, and the open
town.
But aside from this, it has been
fully demonstrated that human beings
absolutely need, and must have, Ole
rest day in the seven, If they are to
retain their health and strength and
well-being. And therefore, to deprive
so many of our fellow creatures Of
this much needed rest would be an
unnecessary hardship if not a crime,
1t would also be treating many of our
fellow men, to say nothing of the
women and children, with less con-
sideration than we give to a horse
which, if treated right, always gets
a rest every seventh day. But the
greatest objection to this is the fact
that such a course or mode Of proceed
ure would inevitably be harmful, If
not demoralizing to the people, and
particularly to the children, of this
town.
well remember my first visit to
Soma fip,o Of bo
theaters had been open on a Sunday,
and change for the worse was un-
! mistakably evident And l was told
by the parents Of the children that
this was one of the worst things that
had ever happened to that city, and
had done more to destroy their in
fiuence over their children than any
thing that had ever happened there.
And this was very evident and un
deniably true, and could be seen at
glance. But it was not only in the
children that the bad effect was seen,
for it was said that almost every one
was more or less affected by it and
very much to their disadvantage. And
l would like to ask that if such was
the case there. why would it not be
the same here? AS a matter of fact,
every sane person knows that such
would be the case, and therefore it
is up to thine to use all their infiu-
enee and all their power to put a
stop to it.
All will say that if anyone knows
this to b. a fact and stands idly by
without protest, and allows this thin'
to be done, he is just as much t.
blame as the Trainer o. lhiS ia"' an'
is an enemy to the best interest o.
this city as well as an enem.N 70 tIl'
best welfare of the people.
But 1 cannot think that there ar
to be found men, much less legisla'
tors, who would deliberately plan to
enact law which would injure their
fellow men, or that would have A
tendency to demoralize the people
They might do so unWittingly, no
! knowing the tIde facts of the case
but not otherwise.
Yours very truly,
GEORGE OSBORNE.

BEATTIE'S COUNSEL
COMPLAINS OF IAILOR

r c H 10 n D, VA--Special.-
| indignant at the treatment which
he received at the hands Of Turnkey
| Garnett, OF the Henrico county Jail.
Attorney Harry NJ. Smith, counsel for
Henry Beattie, Jr., has written a let
ter to Judge Walter Watson. OF the
Chesterfield County Circuit Court, ask
ing relief.
Ever since Garnett has been in
charge OF the prisoner and witnesses
| in the Beattie case he has evinced
kind OF pOmpoSity and an authorita-
tive manner, delegating to himself su-
preme power as far as the prisoner
and witnesses are concerned; has al
lowed them to receive no visitors eX-
cept with his consent; has frequently
thwarted the efforts OF the detectives
working on the case. and has set up
himself, in short as dictator OF the
jail.
Yesterday Mr. Smith. IN company
with an associate. called at the Jail
and asked to see his client Gamett.
who has acted as turnkey for numer-
Gus chicken thieves and petty Offend
erS, but who is now connected with
his first really big case. handed down
a decision TO the effect that Mr.. Smith
and his associate could not see his
client.
The day previous. when two visitors
legitimate information. Garnett who
was seated at table in the office eat
ing, refused admittance, though II was
raining at the time. and finally ordered
a negro who was locked in the office
with him. to slam the iron door in the
faces OF the visitors.
Considerable criticism has necessarily
been directed at Sheriff Kemp on ac-
count OF the pomposity OF Petty Official
Garnett, and at one time the detectives
conducting the Investigation seriously
considered having the prisoners moved
TO the city jail. so greatly were they
hampered by Garnett whenever they
attempted to interview one Of their
own witnesses.
In Justice to Sheriff Kemp. however
IL should be said that he has always
acted in a COnsiderate and gentlemanlv
manner towards all callers and no one
has ever had occasion TO complain of
high handed pompoSity on his part
Though Petty Ofiicial Garnett makes
II an iron-bOund rule never TO allow
anyone to see or speak to any of the
prisoners under his watchful eve sew
nral visitors have at times been ad-
mitted to the jail by him-One OF these
being a person whose presence was
not desired by the Commonw ealth-and
allowed TO converse in private with
one or more OF the prisoners.
