BLOW aimed AT
WHISKY RING"'
Effort Will Be Made to Stop
Illegal Traffic On Army
Transports.

An alleged whisky ring" on the
army transports plying between San
Francisco and Manila and touching
at Honolulu Is now under investiga-
ton by Mai II. p. Young, U. s. quar-
termaster ut San Francisco and in
charge of the Pacific transport SER
vice. This is the news in local mill
tary circles that is causing good
deal Of interest.
1t is declared that the ring exists
among civilian employees OF the trans
port service. mostly stewards, cooks,
and even clerks in the department at
San Francisco This men are charg-
ed with smuggling whisky and other
intoXicants on board the transports
at San Francisco in the familiar pack
ing cases in which goods are carried
and then selling II to the enlisted
men during the voyage. II is said
that the profits have been enormous,
fifty-cent bottles of whisky selling as
high as IS, and members of the ring
have retired from business sporting
diamonds and real estate. .
The first Investigation was ordered
by Maj. Young on the transport Sheri-
dan, which passed through this port
a few days ago. Maj. Young. 1t Is
said, ordered Capt Healy by wireless
to conduct an investigation and run
down the ring. The anti-canteen law
prohibits the sale of liquor on board
transports. and much of the contra
band stun in the past has been seiz-
ed and thrown overheard, but no de.
termined effort to break up the lille.
gal traffic has ever been made. Now
Maj. Young has decided to stop II
once and for all.

MOTT-SMITH and The .PUBLI(

President Mott-Smith's statement to
the Board of Health on the Honolulu
sanitation campaign is very sane
document.
We don't know that we can entirely
agree with him when he bears down
hard on the admonition to pay little
heed to public clamor.
Paying mo heed to public clamor
sometimes results in better public
bodies than the present Board of
Health droning themselves to sleep.
1t is the wise man who has the ability
to discriminate between Just a plain
''Jackass boiler" with nothing behind
II but desire to make II uncomfort-
able for the officials and get a little
free advertising, and a deep commun-
ity call to action voiced in vigorous
terms free from factlous criticism.
The Bulletin would suggest
that President Mott-smith and the
members of the Board of Health
should take every advantage of pub
tic clamor in connection with SANTA
ton matters, to spur the clamorers
on to activity that amounts to some
thing practical
What Honolulu needs in this con-
nection at the present time is the ac-
tive cooperation of the aggressive
business men who have done things
in Hawaii. and who will in a crisis
be the first to complain that they
didn't know what the real situation
| was.
Everyone with average sense knows
that the detail work on which Presi-
dent Mott-Smlth Is now engaged, and
the work of similar character which
