GIVE KNOX A WELCOME

81 Secretary of State Knox will arrive here next
Thursday and he and his party will Sp' nd two
days in Honolulu.
So far there is little or no preparation being
made to receive Secretary Knox in the manner
in which he should he received. 1t is true, of
course, that he is going Oh Sombrr mission to
another country. But his visit is of very great
Importance to Honolulu, and Secretary Knox is

HANAPEPE SCHOOL
FINISHED AND READY

Geo. E. Marshall, the wcll-knOwn
contractor, has finished up the Hama
pepe school on Kauai, and the build
ing, containing ten big classrooms,
will be ready to open up school
days on the eighth of September.
The, little old schOolhouse that stood
on the same site has been torn down.
The enrolment, of scholars at the new
Hanapepe school has been so large
for the coming term that there is con-
siderable talk OF building two addl-
tionaI rooms to the new building.
Contractor Marshall was the fOrtu-
nate bidder for the erection of the
kilaUea bridge on Kauai, and will
start the work at once. He is now in
Honolulu making arrangements for
the work.

CONFESSIONS OF AN Ex-PRESI
DENT.

(Sent to Honolulu from Washington
as aprOpos of the situation.)
I'm twice as great as Washington,
I'm twice as great as Grant;
Because third terms they didn't get
They needn't think | can't.
I'm twice as great as jefferson
And Madison combined;
I'm twice as great as all the lot
OF Presidents, | find.
I'm greater than my Country,
And its customs and its laws,
It's poor old Constitution
And its Presidential flaws.
I'm twice as great as any man
Above or meath the sod;
In fact, I'm half inclined to think
I'm twice as great as God.

AS TO The LAND LAWS

l.. l.. McCandlc>>'S statement. together with
the rrm arrd jrIr.miadS Of Delegate Kuhio, indi-
eat" that the two candidates for IIawai'S repre-
sentative in Congress look upon the territorial
land laws as the strategic point Of attack
OF course both of them are picking out the
land laws particularly to discuss in their cam
paign because they can thus make a direct ap-
peal to the voters and on a matter of which the
ave rage voter knows no more, specifically, than
he does Of Schedule X. or disarmament, or the
judicial recall. or any other subject that goes
more by name than real acquaintance.
Mr.. McCandIcSS asserts in a statement he has
given out that Delegate Kuhjo's talk about re-
wishing the land laws is IL bluff What the terri
tory needs maintains Mr. McCandIcSS is not so
much Il change in the enforcement of the laws
as in the laws themselves.
On this platform-a revision of the land laws
the Democratic leader is therefore making his
principal stand. And yet, where in his state
mcnt does he suggest any specific changes, any
new provisions, any distinct legislation? No.
where.
McCandless says that what is needed is Il
"plain, simple and clear law, . . . whereby for
Il nOll1tl cOllSuCFdlIOn ;Illu upon llt
ance of certain homestead duties clearly set
forth, the homesteadcr may acquire his home
stead in fee simple, and that his right should not
be dependent upon the whim or discretion of any
executive officer"
Nobody questions that the territory should
have plain, simple and clear homestead law,
bona-fidc settlers, diScouragnS
takers. That is territorial doctrine. But Me-
Candless fails to give the voters anything def
mite as to what changes in Legislation he pro
poses
Presumably Mr.. McCandless had these
changes in mind Presumably he knows just
what he would do, if elected to Congress- in the
direction Of changing the laws. 1t is only fair
to the voters and the whole territory that it's
didates for delegate set forth plainly what
changes they indorse. We've had enough Of
vague promises What is needed now is state
ment showing just where in the land laws the
changes should be made, and just what amend
ments should be Incorporated.

The minute you say taxation
you establish a war department in
the average citizen. It's like saying
"sick 'em" to the dog when the cats
around. Now it's to be presumed
that this antipathy is q heritage OF
the times when the lord of the manor
took everything in sight and what
was left went to some other tax COL
lector However this may be. what
ever is to be fostered by taxation
is looked upon with suspicion, and
the corporation or enterprise that
seeks aid in this way is long way
from the worshiper at the shrine OF
beneficence.
When the st. Tammany and New
Orleans Railways and Ferry Com
pany started the little motor line be-
tween Vaudeville and Covington. the
plea that 1t would be . bene1t to
the parish was met by some with the
suggestion that private business OF
ali kinds was q benefit to the parish,
but no tax was voted to sustain 1t.
Plausible but not practical, for the
demands OF trade will bring busi-
ness enterprises. regardless. we
might have waited many years TOT
the motor line, had it not been Tor
the four mill tax, for there was not
otherwise trade enough to demand
it. But these remarks are not
brought out because many dollars
have been saved to those who travel
between these points; not because II
has enabled citizens and visitors TO
travel by boat: not because excur-
sionists to Covington or Mandevil!e
or Abita Springs may now visit all
three points in one day; not because
YOU may live out Of town and DO
business in town at small expense,
and not because Of numerous other
advantages you could not otherwise
enjoy. AS the advertiser says,
there's q reason"
Have you ever noticed the gay
throng of school children that reach
es Covington on the o'clock car
in the morning? Well, these child
rem enjoy this privilege at the nom1-
nal cost Of five cents for the round
trip. no matter from where they
come. They crowd into the front
WDAILluVuI VI IAC NoAs "AOAA ~H~S-S
is room for them there, and they en-
Joy the fresh morning breeze as
children only can enjoy things.
There are some of the girls that
have their game Of baseball every
morning while they are waiting for
the car at the Abita station, and
they are learning to play some ball,
too, especially one little miss who
can bat flies better than some of the
boys, and do it gracefully, too. These
children reach school with clear
minds and vital energy to carry them
through the days work. The motor
line may cheat the doctor, but it
certainly should have the good will
of the parents. We have put good
mark down for Mr.. Riggs, the man
ager, that it will take some rubbing
to rub out.

Louis Daring the New Pres
ident and Manager.
Preparations Being Made to
Grow Lettuce and Parsley.
Turnips, Beans and Mustard
Will Also be Planted.
Strawberry Growers are Also
Getting Ready for Crop.

The organization of the Truck
Growers Association of St. Tanmany
parish has done much to encourage
the farmers to grow truck for ship
ment. While the shipments have
not been as large as they should
have been, the experience gained has
been such as to give encouragement
to the belief that st. Tammany pro-
ducts can compete successfully with
those grown in other sections, and
that with a good season and proper
handling there is money in the bust
ness for the farmer. The coming
season promises good acreage in
truck with q diversification that will
prevent the loss that frequently fol
lows the onc-crop plan.
Capt. G. E. Millar, the former
president of the Association, hes ac-
cepted q position in New Orleans
and has therefore been compelled to
resign the office. Louis Daring has
been elected president and manager
In his stead. H. J. Dutsch is secre-
tary and Herman Dutsch treasurer.
Mr.. Daring is commission man and
has dealt extensively in truck In New
Orleans. He ID familiar with the va
rious markets and their needs and
should be of great benefit to the as
ISOLATION in handling their products.
He feels assured that II the products
are raised he will be able to place
them In the market at a profit to
the growers. The plan he has out
lined for this fall IL the growing OF
lettuce, parsley, turnips and mus
tard. The agreements, 80 far, cover
II acres OF lettuce, 20 acres of tur-
nips and mustard. 3 acres Of parsley
and 5 acres Of fall beans. There
will be some strawberries planted
and some fall potatoes. Mr.. Daring
says that shipments will be made to
eastern and western markets. Let
tuce will bring from three to twelve
dollars a barrel, with from IS to
100 heads to the barrel. Only the
heading variety will be planted.
There are other associations at
jacksonville, Vaudeville and Folsom
that will put considerable acreage
in truck, but the exact figures have
not been given out.
The Strawberry Growers Assoc:a-
tion are busy getting their land in
cultivation. Mr.. Robert L. Dutsch.
the secretary, says that the prospects
are fine for a good acreage. Ee-
sides the 10 acres at the Alexius
place, Mr.. H. B. Pruden and other
farmers will plant; some an acre and
some q half acre or less. The total
acreage should be brought up to a
pretty good figure. Mr.. Aubert says
the handling of the 4O-acre ira act
will be under the supervision of an
experienced strawberry grower of
independence.
