J. S. MARTINI am for DR.. Bmer-
son as successor to President Mott
Smith.
RICHARD TRENT-Tie a man
hand and foot and leave him in the
public eye and he will know how it,
feels to be mayor.
CAPTAIN PETE JOHNSON-There
is absolutely no truth in the rumors
that l intend 10 retire from the COM
mand of the Wilhelmina.
WALTER DILLINGHAM; Oahu
Polo Clubs team is ready for the fray
and we are going in with confidence
that we shall emerge from the tourna-
ment winners.
FRANK DODGE. am in favor of
the abolition of wet" farming in Ho-
nolulu. l believe tnat 1t would pay,
as a real estate investment, to fill in
some of the wet land
FRED TURRILL-I met John Lane
the other day and he talked politics.
l think he was trying to pump me
about Democratic plans. Wonder if
he wants to run for delegate,
MAJOR CAMARA-There must be
some local agents at work in Spain
to have enabled Campbell to work so
quickly. Brazilian employees have
agencies at work seeking labor all
the time in Spain and Portugal.
MR.. MACINTYRE-The way to
keep money in the country that is
sent out for insurance premiums IS
to carry out proper policies for fire
protection and enforce building or
dinances, so that the big companies
will reduce their rates.
GINGER MAYNE-There are plenty
Of Sharks in the harbor, but they
must be of the tame variety, for they
have never been known to touch any
one. l saw one fully sixteen feet
long one Sunday. 1t is a mistake 20
think that there are no sharks in the
harbor.
THIRD OFFICER TRANSPORT
/ BUFORD-The authorities are very
angry at the number of stowaways or
transports, and they are determined
to stop the practice if they can. That
is why no one will be allowed on
board the Buford, unless We know
what his business is.
GEORGE y. DAVIS am not
going to act longer as United States
commissioner, but confine myself
strictly to law practice. My son was
made commissioner before | went to
the Coast. l will resign when Judge
Clemens picks out a second man.
There must be two.
MAYOR FERN-People seem to
think that the bandage on my nose
denotes that | have been in an argu-
ment with one of the supervisors
Such, however, is not the case. 1t IS
simply a blow while cranking my
machine. 1t now hurts me to laugh,
and that makes me sorer than any
thing.
FOOD COMMISSIONER BLANCH-
Ard am going to prosecute the
next ice cream dealer whose product
] find to be below standard, under the
act of the last legislature fixing a
standard for ice cream and making
ice cream below IA per cent butter !
fats "adulterated'' In the meaning OF
the pure food law.
DIR. RAMUS-This new regulation
making all steerage passengers from
cholera-infected ports submit to an
examination before being permitted
to enter a port of the United States,
Is very important one. If the out
break in the Orient becomes a big
one, it will in all probability mean
that we will have to increase our staff
to cope with it,
SUPERINTENDENT WILLIS r. !
POPE-The question is, what are
we educating for?" The answer is,
ITO make those educated more Ell
cient for their life work" You can't
get away from that. Is that what we
are doing, or are we following the old
idea that all education must lead up
to more ducation-ultimately to al
college degree?
