The STAR BULLETIN has been asked again as
to its attitude on the election of Mr. c. q. Bart
lett to the board of supervisors. This paper may
therefore reaffirm what it has said earlier in the
campaign, it is absolutely opposed to the
presence of the liquor business in politics and
will continue to oppose it. The sTAR-BULlETIN
credits Mr. Bartlett with sincerity in his state
ment that he intends to take no part in any
changes of the present liquor law: But this
paper knows, and Mr.. Bartlett knows, and every
fair-minded man knows, that if there came up an
issue between city government and the liquor
business he would be gravely hampered by his
liquor interests. And the STAR-BULLET1N does
not believe in electing public servants who may
be called upon to serve another master than the
public good. The STAR-BULLETIN makes 10 at:
tack on Bartlett personally. But it does know
that the liquor business is the greatest enemy to
orderliness and freedom from crime that the
government of Honolulu has to fight. Not the
man, but his enchanting affiliations, is to be
feared.

EDITOR
INsURIEG THE COURTRrs LABOR

Since England's experience with the new
iworkiDgmen's insurance law, the subject of or
gained compensation for the working classes
has begun to engage the attention of the world.
1t seems not TO be generally known that Ger
many has very effective system and has had
for number of years. Recently Dr. Friedrich
Zahn, director of the Bavarian statistical office
tof Munich, compiled some figures to show what
rapid strides Germany has made in this respect.
In the course of years the German working
mans insurance has attained the dimension of
a gigantic social institution which is of import
ant influence for thefurthering of hygienic and
general conditions. Ont Of 100000 laborers
in Germany 100000 are carrying sick insur-
ance, 15,7O0,000 are carrying invalid and old
age insurance, and with the artisans in small
manufacturing establishments included, "a 300,
900 workmen are carrying accident insurance.
Frcm 1885 to 1910, 100,00O,OO0 sick, disabled
and injured people and their relatives have re-
'ceived the benefits through insurance In bene-
fits there have been paid out 3,490,OO0,000
marks About 100000 marks were spent daily
for this tremendous institution of workingmens
aid. @>Ez
In every case there is not only benefit paid
in money for the loss, but at the same time pro-
phylactic measures are followed. This is es-
pecially illustrated by the accident-preventiye
measures which everywhere are in force. Every
where is seen the evidence of the higher valua-
ton attached to the laborer's life. T.. .
The most important thing is not the material
compensation, but the maintenance of energy
and the activity which tends to increase the pro-
,dnctiye power ofsthe working class through ,abo-
slition of the causes of sickness, injury and in
validism The German workingman's i1sur-
.ance, therefore, maintains its equilibrium
through quicker, restitution of the working
ability of the laboring class, the development of
a generation with heightened powers of resist
ance, and the education of the community in the
potent value of sanitary selfdefense.
DIR. Zahn stated that in other countries sss-
TENS of workingmen's insurance either already
are established or there are strong movements
on foot for their introduction. at is realized
everywhere that the money spent for working
mems insurance is a very good investment, and
that it is the technical preliminary necessity to
secure an increase in commercial productivity"
he said. H..
