HONOLULU BUSINESS MEN MUST DO IT.

E {. Paxton, speaking at meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce trustees Wednesday afternoon sounded warn
ing note that should be needed every business house and
by every citizen
Mr.. Paxton stated his belief that Honolulu had two great
responsibilities that demanded the umemittng attention of
the business men and all residents of the Ctythe con-
StGtlon OF WharveS to accommodate shipping, and pIaC
ing the city in proper sanitary condition.
Mr. Paxton is right.
There is no city the United States that has more at
stake in sanitation than Honolulu: no CITY with such bril-
liant future that may experience period of temporary un
if it neglect to exercise average degree of foresight
The WhaVGS are important but these will be useless if
the town not put in condition that will keep il free from
quarantine, and the mosquito.
AS a matter of fact NEGL ECT OF DUTY AT THE PRES
ENT TIME IS CRIMINAL NEGLECT. It will mean the loss
OF lives and millions in property.
The Chamber of Commerce, the business organizations
the civic bodies and the officials should be much on the
Job day in and day out as regards sanitation and the ag-
gcsSve campaign to rid this town Of mosquitoes as ever
is during session OF the Legislature
One of the first things demanding attention is the results
that have been accomplished with the one thousand dollars
a month expended on the mosquito campaign. II this
money be spent to better advantage by reorganization
of the work. eoganize if more money is needed raise the
money-no better investment can be made.
Honolulu business organizations should have active
working committees that will be constantly on the trail
of the City Supervisors the Board of Health and the SAM
tay Commission as they ever were on the trail Of the Leg
iSIatWe.
This does not mean that the Supervisors and the Board
and the Commission need necessarily to be criticised, but
they should feel and know that there is behind them and
with hem live community sentiment supporting action and
CrtiCiSng only naCton.
The organized interests should be constantly and insist
entity ION the Job
THEY MUST BE IF THIS CITY is TO BE KEPT FREE
FROM CHOLERA, PLAGUE YELLOW FEVER AND MA
LARA.
And let it be remembered, if this not done it will be
community disgrace that will justify and result in, the inter-
ference of the Federal government the establishment OF
military government and complete overrn OF the present
Territorial system, followed by cleanup of the town.
This is true because the living fact is always in evidence
that the United States officers went into Havana and Pana
ma-IoCaites that reekng with filth and death--and
cleaned them up made them healthy and Vabe places and
all this during the time that Honolulu has been talking, talk
ng taking-but making absolutely no headWay in clearing
out the mosquito, the deadly to human lives and
Honouu's prosperity.

lulu doesn't do its plain duty, the United States government
MUST AND WILL.
