LITTLE INTERVIEWS

JOHN a, McCANDLESS-Where
do the Honolulu merchants, hotels
and boarding houses stand today as
compared with last January and Feb
luary in their business. showing? Ask
them? The difference is all due to the
injury done by conditions which the
Federal health authorities would not
have permitted to exist.
JOHN HICKS-No the Shearwater
bluejacket did not land at San Quin-
tin, ION San Francisco bay" That's
where the California State prison
is and no insurrectos have made
any attempt to break into it, If they
had, California would not seek it's
hell from Great Britain. The San
Quentin of the dispatches (called
San Cantine) is on San Quentin bay,
hundred miles or so south of En-
senada, Mexico.
o. c. SWAIN-This health business
comes home to every one with a fam.
lily, and it affects all our pockets. The
Stars editorial of Thursday was
right. Only recently an experienced
tourist spoke to me with high enthu-
siasm of Honolulu's attractions, but
said we must gain a reputation for
health and sanitation. 1t is impos-
sible to overestimate the value of
such a reputation. Let us have fed
eral control.
DIR. CLARK, physician of the S.
S. Sierra.-This cholera business, is
doing Honolulu very great harm in
deed. ! am surprised that the mer-
camille community does not combine
and get rid of the swamps and taro
patches and duck ponds. This is an
attractive place for tourists but the
fact remains that one cannot sit in
the open air in the evening, on ac-
count of the mosquit es.
PURSER SMITH-You've got the
people scared to death about this
cholera down here. We understand
tat the federal authorities are going
to take it up. Why don't you let
them. Turn the money over to them !;
they are properly organized and the
others are not. The federal people
would clear out the mosquitoes in no
time, and they would have the place
thoroughly cleaned up.
PAUL SUPER think our Terri
torial officials can handle the health
situation and l am in favor of leaving
* in their hands, though / don't say
they are handling it efficiently. Men
like Dr. Pratt and Mott-Smith can
handle it thoroughly and efficiently If
they have the necessary power. OF
course, if the legislature win not
give them the requisite powers then
} there is no help for it and we must
have Federal control.
l.. L. McCANDLESS-I am emphat-
ically in favor of federal control oi
health matters here. The Board oil
Health has always been in politics

PROF NJ. M. SCOTT-The moving
picture shows ought to be policed and
censored.
r. w. BRECKONS Il am in favor
nj plan of control of public health
that will control it.
DR.. RAMUS-We are going to keep
quarantine on the harbor until the
city is thoroughly cleaned up.
G. G. GUILD vote for temporary
control by the federal authorities, in
view of the existing circumstances.
DIR. HAND think federal con-
troll is the best thing; it is the only
thing. No more politics onmussing
around.
ED TOWSE-I think that federal
control of our health affairs is COM
ing. though it might be premature to
ask for it now.
PURSER WARREN think that
it is coming to the federal authori-
ties taking over health matters.
They're the proper ones anyway.
e. HENRIQUES-I believe in local
control of health matters if politics
are not mixed with it. If they can
not separate the politics then let the
federal authorities take it over.
LORRIN DREWS-Federal con-
troll of health matters in Honolulu
must be good. Anything would be
better than the present situation un
der the Board of Health.
CHIEF OFFICER MADSON-Sure
! think the federal authorities ought
70 take up the control of health mat
tiers. That would be the best thing
that happened to you. They would
make a proper job of it,
SENATOR CECIL BROWN be-
lieve in federal control of local health
matters. If the rival local boards
rannot quit their petty squabbling
over authority, let us have it at once.
MAJOR CAMARA-I do not think
that the federal authorities should
control the health matters, but
certainly think the city and county
should not have anything to do
with it.
A. F. COOKE We ought to have

fairs here. but government by federal

H. T. LAKE-If the federal autho
rites can attain similar results here
70 those secured in Panama, then !
am in favor of the management of the
sanitation of the Territory being
handed over to them.
PURSER SMITH, it had not
been for this cholera scare we would
have brought over many more people

fom Los Angeles in great numbers
'nt they are afraid to come this way
now.
w. w. THAYER-I favor fedora
control of the health situation unless
those in charge can do better than they
are doing. This dual control is neither
one thing nor t'other. There is nc
sense in simply trading men from on,
position to another.

Struck Water.

During the present dry spell
many wells went entirely, dry,
and the we'll on the place occu-
pied by Carl Kain, northwest OF
this city, was no exception to
the rule. While it was dry he
decided it would be a good time
to clean it out, so he did so, and
after he got it cleaned out he de-
cided to drill down in the middle
of it, in the hope that he might
find water. He drilled with a
hand drill about five feet, and
struck a mud opening in which
there was some water. He put
in a shot of a couple of sticks of
powder, and by the time he got
the dirt cleaned out the water
was boiling up from below. The
water is good, too, and the pc
culiar beauty about it is that
there is an abundance of it.

Should be Liberal.

The old soldiers are hoping
the present Congress will pass a
pension bill which will be more
liberal than the present pension
laws. And we feel sure if the
bill is not passed by the present
Congress that the new Congress,
which will be Democratic in the
lower house, will pass a bill
which will be satisfactory to
them. Our idea is that the old
soldier should have a pension of
one dollar a day the. balance of
his life. He gave his service to
the country for mighty small pay
when the country needed that
service. Certain it is that he
did not go into the war for
thirteen dollars per month, but
because he was patriotic. He
was broken in health by the time
he was discharged, and now the
least the government should do
is to see that he does not want
in his declining years. Other
countries not so rich as the grand
old United States take mighty
good care of the soldiery, and
this country should not fall be-
hind in such humanitarian work.
