THE RIGHT TO FLY
THE JAPANESE coLoRs

Editor Star japanese flags are ny.
ing everywhere today Just the same
as they do any other day when there
Is anything Japanese going on. lt
makes no difference whether Il Is the
arrival Of a Japanese warship, or the
opening of Japanese church, all these
things necessitate the hosting OF the
Japanese flag. The japanese people
are the only ones that do not respect
the American flag; all they think of is
their own. and on any kind of an eX-
cuse, up goes the white with the red
ball If you were on the waterfront
today and saw all the boats of the Ha-
waiian Fishery Company, company
incorporated under the American laws
by Japanese, to save paying duty on
the fish that they caught, being aliens,
all flying the Japanese flags, you would
certainly say they are violating all re.
spect, not only for the American flag,
which they are bound to fly, being an
American company, but for the Ameri-
can people and the American country
that they are making their living in.
! believe if the law was enforced, these
boats could all be seized, as engaging
in a business under a false name.
Some steps should be taken to show
these Japanese that if they wish to
continue doing business in America,
they will have to do it as Americans
do in Japan. Thanking you for your
space, l remain,
AN AMERICAN.

AN AMERICAN.

TAmericans in Japan fly their flags
as they please, over their own homes
and business places. So do Ameri-
cans in most European countries. Lon
don thoroughfares, on the Fourth of
July, look like American streets, so
common are the Stars and Stripes.
Honolulu used to hoist all sorts of
flags, on occasion, but the custom is
chiefly maintained here by the ORR
entails. the Chinese as well as the Jap
anese. 1t is perfectly legal, it adds
to the picturesqueness of Honolulu
and. as we do not permit these Asiatics
to become Americans we can hardly
blame them for their preference for
the national colors of the only land
they have.-Editor Start

NOLLIEO" AFTER
PLEA OF GUILTY

Attorney Charlie Chillingworth put
up joke this morning at the expense
Of Deputy City and County Attorney
Brown, in connection with the arrest
Of fifteen Chinese charged with gam
bling When the arrests were made
it was stated that the police informer
had gone back on the police to the ex-
tent that he had acted as informer
simply in the interests of another gam
bling establishment. and interesting
disclosures were promised When the
case was called on for trial on the 9Th
inst, the alleged informer Chez Ho,
entered a plea of guilty, and sentence
was held over until today Chillingworth
appearing for the remainder and ask
ing for a continuance.
This morning all were present in
court again, and Brown announced
that. as he proposed to put Chez Ho
and 1um Chol on the stand as wit
nesses for the prosecution, or, in other
words, as informers, he would ask that
the charges against them be nolle
pressed.
This course was acquiesced in by
Judge w. B. Lymer who granted the
application just as Chillingworth rose
to his feet, apparently to object.
81 took it you had no objection,
said the Judge to Chillingworth, as the
latter smiled.
what objection he has can not
prevail" said Brown, whereupon Chill
lingworth retorted that the Sarcastic
remark of counsel was certainly I'M
called for adding that he Brown
sometimes relied on objections which
did not prevail.
ChillingwOrtn then quietly informed
the court that the men wished to enter
a plea of guilty, and this thunderbolt
certainly surprised the prosecuting at
torney, who characterized it as the
''sharpest practise he had heard of >
though, he fastened to add, when ques-
toned by Chillingworth, that he had
no objection to offer to the plea. Fines
varying from So and costs to SIS and
costs were then imposed, some of the
defendants having previous convictions
against them, one having been arrest
ed twice on the same night.
Just as the matter was apparently
settled, Chillingworth inquired of the
court what it proposed to do in the
case of the man who had entered a
plea of guilty on the 9th inst, and in
connection with whom Brown had
asked for a nol1e prosequi.
Brown wanted to know what that
: had to do with hillingworth. He
wasn't representing the man and had
no standing in the matter, but Chill
lingworth simply remarked that 1t
seemed peculiar to him and he con-
sidered that the attention of the court
should be called to it.
Judge Lyme1-"The whole matter
/ has slipped my mind. I would like 20
/ know all about it but at the same time
Mr.. hillingworth was cut of order"
And there the matter rests. Chez On
pleaded guilty and the case against
him was nolle pressed.
