HOW SENATORS ARE AC-
TUALLY MADE.

There are those who fall back upon
the Constitutional provision and
declare that the plan devised by the
founders of the Government is still
good enough. But they forget the
fact-or choose to ignore it-that our
present way of eleeting Senators is
grotesquely different from that which
the Constitution preseribss and in
tends. The Constitution intends,
and means to prseribe. and the entire
Legislature. including every in
dividual member of it. shalt take
part in the actual choice Of United
States Senator. AS a matter Of fact.
under the existing system. Senator
is usually not chose by the leg
islature in any true sense. He is
chosen by the party caucus ct the
party which has majority OF the
members of the two houses of the
Legislature on joint ballot. 1t is
regarded, under the present system,
as virtually necessary for legislators
elected in the usual way on party
ticket to enter the party caucus and
to abide by the result. Thus. if the
Legislature has $50 members, Of
whom 76 are Democrats and "a are
Republicans, it is the almost invari-
able opinion of strict party men that
the majority choice of the Democratic
caucus ought to be promptly accepted
by the entire Legislature. Under
this system. every one of the IA
Republican votes must be thrown
away. They will be expended upon
a complimentary vote for some
Republican who cannot by any chance
be elected. If the Democratic caucus
should be closely divided betuesn two
candidates-ths one representing. as
is 50 frequently the case, the private
choice of tho machine or the boss.
and the other representing decent
public opinion and some regard
for the traditions of statesmansAip-
it is nevertheless the doctrine Of the
party man that if the machine
candidate can be forced through the
caucus by majority of single vote,
every man who has gone into the
caucus must accept the result and
the man must be elected in the face
of an outraged public opinion. Thus
80 men would control a legislature of
$50 men.-From "The Progress
of the World" in the American
Review of Reviews for February.

the practice of selling his vote to the
party or the candidate that can offer
the best cash price. has lost the hope

reliance in any national crisis. -

corrupting the rightful voters them
selves. The bribed voter has lost
his natural zest for the great
American game Of politics. He
has forsworn that tradition of party
narrowness and prejudice that has its
shining virtues, because the fol-
lowers of Jackson or Clay were at

each, and Winkley and Cockburn a
duck each, completed the scores, sun
dries amounting to three.
Tippen for the sailors and Cart
wright for Honolulu were the most
successful bowlers, Tippen taking five
wickets at a total cost of 20 runs and
Cartwright getting five for 80. Cap
tain Farquhar took four for %, while
Larkin, Kelly, Candy and Cockburn
also took a wicket.
There was only a small attendance
at the game, but the next match will
be witnessed by a larger number as
there was no notice given of this game
until the evening before. The Homo
lulu club have several games in sight
and expect to have a good season.

HOT CAME At
Y. N. TONIGHT

What promises to be one of the
most Interesting basketball games of
the year is scheduled to take place
at the Y. M. c. A. this evening, when
&c" and "E" teams meet in the final
round of the competition now being
played at that institution.
Both teams are well up, but &C.
holds an unbeaten record to date,
while "E" was defeated by "a" by %
points to 20 in the first match played
by these teams. In &C" manages to
win tonight, it will have practically
won the championship, though there is
a bare possibility that "a" team will
down the so-far victorious "C' team
on Thursday. Should "E" win, how
ever, it will mean that the winner of
the game between "a and &c" will
have to meet "E7 to decide the cham
pionship. Thus tonights game, which
commences at seven o'clock, promises
to be a splendid contest.

WANT TO PLAY
THE CRUISER MEN

The announcement that an effort
is to be made to hold an association
football game between H. M. S. Kent
and the best local team available will
be welcome news to all who are in
terested in the British game of foot
ball. The Kent team is a strong one
and those who have taken up the game
in Honolulu would do well to make a
special effort to see this match as it
is certain that they will profit by it.
The sailors of the British men-of-war
can always be relied to play a clean,
snappy, tricky game of soccer and
almost invariably it is a naval team
which wins the annual competitions
along the China coast. The Kent has
been on the China coast recently and
in the soccer matches there, against
civilian as we'll as naval teams the
boys from this ship did well.
The only difficulty in the way is
the fact that the outbreak of cholera
the Kent being deprived of all shore
leave, this step being taken purely
as a precautionary measure, but it is
quite probable that in order to permit
of this game taking place Surgeon
Glaister will raise the embargo and
allow the men ashore for the match.
In addition to the soccer games an
exhibition rugby match will also be
put on, the opposing teams being Sc
lected from the players of the Kent.
/ Rugby is a game which should appeal
to sports in Honolulu for it combines
I skill with speed. The element OF
danger is not entirely lacking either
for as serious spill as any at the
American game can be obtained in a
rugby match, though to be sure it is
but seldom that here are any serious
accidents occasioned by rugby. If
this match does take place, and every
thing points to that desired end be-
ing attained, residents of Honolulu will
have an opportunity of seeing the
game at it's best. The Kent players
are men worthy of being selected as
opponents of the game and they will
put up an exhibition that will please
all fans who love football, irrespective
of the brand of their particular choice.
The game will be played on the
League grounds at Moiliili tomorrow
afternoon, commencing at three
o'clock, but more definite announce
ment will be made later.

SINGLE TAX THE REMEDY.
Honolulu, February 90, 1911.

Editor Starr notice one OF the
members of the legislature would like
a few suggestions in regard to the
needs and requirements of the Terri
tory, and also any information which
will help them in framing of good laws
that is for the best interest of these
Islands. And in reply to this request
would beg to say, that it is my opin-
ion that the land laws of this Territory
need some attention In the first place
it is well known that the bulk of the
land now unoccupied is tied up in
some way so that it is impossible 10
buy it, and at times, even difficult TO
get lease of il ana in consequence
it often happens that great enterprises,
as well as small industries, have to
be abandoned. This state of things,
it is said, stands in the way of prog
ress of Hawaii more than any other
thing that can be mentioned, and COM
plants of the injustice of it is heard
on every side.
And there is no question but that
this state of things will have to be
brought to an issue sooner or later,
and something done about it. For not
only are large tracts of land, both in
the city and country, left unoccupied,
but often left in most disgraceful
condition.
What would be the best remedy for
this state of things it were, perhaps,
hard to say; but a good many men are
of the opinion that single tax, which
Henry George so long fought for, is
the only remedy.
Very truly yours,
GEORGE OSBORNE.

KENT MEN WON
CRICKET GAME

The opening cricket game of the
season was that played on Saturday
afternoon on the Makih ground be-
tween a team from H. M. S. Kent and
the Honolulu cricket team. The Wis
itors won after a very interesting
game, having fourteen runs the better
of matters when play ceased. The
choice of innings fell to the Kent team
and 1872 runs were compiled before the
tenth wicket fell. Play was enlivened
occasionally by boundary hits, Of
which there were twelve, but on the
whole play was quiet, the heavy state
of the ground holding the ball. Sur
geon Glaister did best with the bat
for the Kent, scoring 20 runs, of which
three were boundary hits; Captain
Farquhar made 49, Lieutenant Collins
was run out with IS to his credit;
and the other scores were: Lieutenant
Sneyd 10, Lieutenant Fellowes 10, mir.
Tippen 5, Rev. Crole Rees 5, Private
Larken 2, e. R. A. Heys and Lieuten-
ant Murray one each and Stenton 2,
sundries accounting for FIVE.
Honolulu did fairly well for awhile,
particularly towards the end of their
innings when Rath and Candy were
together, but after Rath was caught
Candy fell a victim to Tippen's leg
bowling being caught at square leg
and the innings ended for SO runs.
Candy hit up II in good style; Cap
tain Kelly and Rath made Is each,

nil, Play was interesting though the
standard was low, but the lads show
ed that they had a good grip of the
rules and that all that was necessary
to develop them into good players
was practise. Soccer is getting a good
hold here and it will not be surprising
to find more like six or eight teams
in the Hawaiian League next season
instead Of four.

SPOR. IS
BOAT CLUBS PREPARE To RACE

AS announced in The Star columns
on Saturday the question of a com
pact between the Healanis and the
Myrtles has been decided in the mega
tive by the Healanis, but that deci-
sion will not affect the maintenance
of amicable relations between the
two clubs.
BY refusing to enter into a COM
pact the Healanis have taken stand
from which there can be no recess
sion. Should it happen that the Myr-
ties acquire a boat superior to any
the Healanis may possess the excuse
that the Myrtle boat is the better can
not now be urged in palliation of de-
feat. The chance to enter compact
was made and declined and hence
forward 1t will be "best-and-best'
boats. Both clubs are thus in the same
position as they were at last regatta.
The Myrtles will have the new Keenan,
boat and the Healanis will have a
similar craft, but in addition to this
the Healanis will have the new ALI
Rogers boat and will be able to use
which of the two they choose.
Having finally decided this question
both clubs will now go ahead will
the seasons program and there neeC
be no further reference to boats. Presi
dent King of the Myrtles remarked
that the Myrtles would be satisfied
whichever way the Healanis decided
well, that decision has been made anC
there will be no kick. When mex
regatta comes round the crews will
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-02-27

meet in open competition and prob
ably before that date there will be
inter-club events arranged.
The Healanis are already planning a
series of races with the idea of test
ing the new material in the club. Two
strawberry crews have been chosen
and they will commence training from
today, in order to be ready to race in
months time. These crews have
been selected from members of the
club who have never rowed in a race
in Honolulu and most of the men have
never raced in their lives. The mate
rial promises well and it is quite on
the cards that one or more of the
men in these crews will find a place
in the regatta crews later on. This
is the start and from now EDWARDS
steady work will be carried on at the
club. The members are energetic and
the present committee is keen one
and can be depended upon to keep the
younger members up to scratch.
The new club suits have been re.
ceived from the Coast and can be OBJ
tanned by members upon application
The suits comprise shirts and trunks
the former white with the clubs EN-
blem on the breast and the latter
blue. Very natty they are, too!
The Healanis propose to make an
other addition to their rowing fee
in the shape of a new pair-oared Graf
and when this is obtained their fee
will be quite sufficient to meet all the
expected demands on it during the
coming few seasons.
