For weeks the qustion of iganizing

Those who most cherish the desire to
route the cong ressman have been turn
ing over in their minds The question OF
a leader. They realize that nothing
short of real Moses could go up a.

thinking over the advisabiiity Of a
convention, and incidentally have
pondered over the significance Of a
primary.
1t is stated that a majority of the
present executive committee is of the
old Brownlow guards. 1t is said that
ahey are anticipating the call of "A con-

various viewpoints. Ju ge Nc

names of Massey, Henderson and
james b. Cox were mentioned Ia the
conference. But In the absence Of DR..

to take any definate action. 1t is
said that Judge Henderson is not in

As EXPECTED FROM HOLSTEIN

Speaker Holstein has done just ex-
actly what those who know him best
expected he would do, in connection
with his reported remarks on Camp
bell and the Mahukona wharf.
The Bulletin was correct in as
Stunning that either the Speaker was
not correctly quoted'or he didn't know
what he was talking about
But there is one matter on which
the Speaker is fully informed, namely
the movement in the House of Repre-
sentatives to hold up the salary Of the
of Public Works until
he should send letter to the party
managers on the subject of patron
age.
Under any circumstances the Speak
er Of the House has made mighty

to be in the list of candidates for Del
egate to Congress when Kuhio gives
the final word that he is done with It.

Statistics are given to show that the
death rate from this disease in 1890,
in the registration area Of the United
States, was 97S for each million of
population. In 1900, following the
general adoptionl of diphtheria anti
toxin, the rate had fallen to 452 per
million of population-a reduction of
more than one-balf. In 1910, It had
fallen to 267 for each million, accord
ing to the returns for the State of
New York.
This great stride In the protection
OF human life has been made possible
by experiments upon animals and, as
the result OF experiments upon an
imals now under way, in the study Of
other ailments. medical men hope
that similar results may be obtained
in dealing with other diseases of child
hood.
Cruel as this may seem, especially
to those feminine representatives OF
civilization who trust their children
to the mercies Of illiterate nurses
and take their dogs and cats to bed
with them, the great proportion of
humanity will agree that the advance
is wholesome one. and that thou
sands of the most valuable human
lives have been won at the expense of
a comparatively few animal ones.
