Appeals From Prominent People in

Set Forth That Further Incarceration
Will Not Add to Punishment He
Has Already Suffered.

LANSING, Mich, March 14.-Gov.
Osborn Is receiving many letters from
prominent people I'm various parts OF
Michigan, asking him to pardon Frank
II. Glazief, who was convicted or
misappropriating the states funds
while state treasurer and sentenced
10 Jackson prison for a term OF ten
years. These communications set
forth that az Glazier was branded as
a felon and condemned to the peni-
Tertiary, no further Incarceration
could ado To his punishment; that he
was in a malestrom OF speculation
in a vitiated political atmosphere"
and tina. his family Is now In dire
want.
Gov. Osborn has studied carefully
The arguments that have been made
en- behalf Of the fallen financier and
is anxious TO hear from any section OF
Michigan In order that he can satisfy
himself as to how the people in gen.
cral view the campaign that Is being
made TO obtain Glaciers freedom.
Glazier was condemned to hard
labor at Jackson by Judge West, In
Mason, Feb. 8, 1910, and began serv-
ing his sentence the next day. Since
then, the appeal states, his daughter
has died in the west, and his family
has been reduced to distress In Chel-
sea. The letters say Glazier has tast-
ed the bitter dregs OF despair every
day since he was sent to prison; that
the ends Of justice have been salts
fed ard that Glazier should be freed
especially SO he can provide for his
family.
The following letter was written
to Gov. Osborn by prominent De-
troiter:

TELLS STANDARD
OF A GOOD MAN
His Goodness Must Extend to Others
Declares Rev. w. A. Stearley in
MONDAY Lenten Services.

There were many moist eyes as the
big audience attending the MONDAY
Lenten service, in the Detroit opera
house. slowly fled out, Tuesday, with
the memory of the words Of Edward
Everett Hales poem can Canamed
Saint" ringing in their ears as they
had been spoken by the Rev. William
r. Stearley. of Philadelphia. DR.. Stear-
ley gave the poem as the closing
words in his address. He is posses
sed of a peculiarly attractive, mellow
voice, and the response from the
audience as the verses. were recited
was quickly sympathetic.
When you speak Of a good man
why not ask what Is he good for?
said DR.. Stearley In his. address. a
man may go TO prayer meeting every
week OF his life and be counted a
good man. but does his prayer have
any visible effecf on HIS own life!
Does his goodness extend to others!
When We reach the end of the jour
ney along the Kings highway, Jesus
will ask of us What have you done
in your journey hither? AS | passed
along the Kings highway, made
God known to man. What did You
do?'
"One of Jesus most marked traits
was His resourcefulness He always
knew what to do. and what to say. He
never was at loss for a plan of ac-
ton. In our religious life, We must
have that spirit of resourcefulness.
We must not only feel responsibility
but assume and face II. There Is al
ways opportunity IL We wish to find

in Detroit for men and women to help
in municipal house-cleaning, in build
ing up the churches, in doing a hun
dred and one things to help in gen.
eral and individual betterment. A
noble, true and splendid character Is
more to be desired than anything
else in this world.
What pity young men OF today
fritter away their time upon the
lighter things of life. instead of striy-
ing for character. Character Is con-
seriousness of purpose-using ones

that when young people go into settle

deavor they do II because they think

TASK OF FILLING PEST HOLES
CALLS FOR PUBLIC ASSISTANCE

Now that there is available the
$250,000 revolving" fund for the
filing in of insanitary lands of this
city, the health and public works au-
thorities are getting ther heads to-
gether to determine the best and
quickest method of realizing the OBJ
jects for which the law was made.
1t was evidenced during the cholera
epidemic that the most dangerous por-
tion of Honolulu is that section of
swampy land and ponds between
South street and Waikiki, running
fro,1 heiow King street to the sea,
and that the great area embraced by
the boundaries hoted requires a
tremendous amount of filling in. The
new law provides that the government
shall do the filing at the expense of
the property owners, but the author
tiles expect or fear a great deal of
legal opposition, that is opposition
founded on claims legal or otherwise.
1t is their desire to impress the prop
erty owners that cooperation with the
government IN this compulsory work
will mean great benefit to the owners
of the LAM involved. If each prop
erty owner were to he required him
sGlf to 1i!l in his low lands the eX-
pensc to the individual would be- very
great. but the government is arrang-
ing to let large contracts for the fill
ing in Of big areas at a time, so that
the expense assessed on each prop
erty owner will be comparatively small
and will amount to about third, or
less, of what it would cost the prop
erty owner if he was compelled to
make his own contracts.
Not the least insanitary portion of
the section noted is that where at
high tide a considerable space is left
uncovered by water, but covered with
rubbish. 1t is waste land, if it may
be called land, in the most emphatic
sense
The plan that may be adopted in
filling the low lands between South
street and Waikiki is to dredge and
purl' this material into the ponds
and swamps in the district mentioned
thus accomplishing a twofold result,
reclaiming the land and creating be,
tween the reef and the beach a beau,

GOING To MAUI

Governor Frear and President of

ing for Maui to circle that island on
horseback, taking in the crater Of
Haleakala, accompanied by a guide.
With the windup of the legislature
the Governor feels the need of lit
tie recreation, though his Maui trip
will not be all play. He will inspect
the route of the Kula pipe line, study
lands and otherwise combine the bus
mess of his office with the pleasures
of the brief vacation. He will be back
in Honolulu on Wednesday.
Upon the Governors return Secre-
tary Mott-Smith will take vacation,
at least the Governor thinks he needs
one. While the Governor is away
Mott-Smith will have the affairs of the
executive Office in charge, as well as
looking after his work as Secretary
of the Territory and President of the
Board of Health.

the idea to clean out the unsightly and
insanitary mud flats exposed at high
tide and transfer them for filling to
the ponds and swamps further up, at
the same time establishing a system
of drainage by the installation of ce-
nented waterways. 1t would be use
less to fill in without accommodate
ing the streams from the hills and
these will be looked after in the
manner mentioned.

The best and quickest results will
be accomplished through the cooper

land will be increased vastly in value

would have to pay.

KOREAN PASSES
BOGUS CHECKS

A well groomed Korean named M.
S. Kim, who pleaded guilty in the po-
lice court this morning to a series of
false pretences, has had quite an in
teresting time lately For some weeks
past, on the strength of his good ap-
pearance, he has been travelling
around town in various hacks for
hours at time and rendering bogus
checks for the fare. Invariably the
checks were for amounts greater than
the fare, and the change was accept
ed by Kim. He victimized four Japan
ese hackmen in this manner, getting
sums of $14.75, $500, $4,0O and $3,25
from them, and one bicycle dealer
getting from the latter $1,25. He dis
appeared from town when the police
were informed of his escapades but

TO PAY 100000

Hawaiian corporation taxes due the
United States internal revenue office
this year amount to over 100000, and
they will be delinquent after June 30.
While a few small corporations have
already paid in for 1911, the greater
number of corporations usually do not
pay until toward the end of the period,
that being their privilege and they
meanwhile having the use of their
money. This years corporation taxes
show a considerable increase over last
years assessments.

Delegate to Congress Kuhio Kala-

swamp land reclamation necessity,

future and reclaim the Waikiki
swamp lands, making of them a place
of beauty for residences, and chiefly
accomplishing this great work, as
near to the Pinkham idea as possible,
with view to safeguarding the health
of the community, civilians and sold
iery alike, but as far as getting any
Federal aid in this matter is con-
cerned. do not see how we are going
about it.

what have we to lay before Congress? D?
1--WE should do this work ourselves,
or at least have some definite propo-
sal to make to Congress, which might
then do something on account of pro
tecting the health of the military, but
Congress would be unlikely to take up
the reclamation of the lands merely
as a local improvement,
