States each. evenly divided between

ASLEEP TO THE. ISSUE

An Investment in political alarm clocks
would pay a hundred per cent. to voters of Ho
nolulu just now.
There are many conflicting issues in the cam
paign, as in any campaign, but there is no con
flict of issues ON the question of good govern.
nent, efficient government and bad govern
lnent, inefficient government, except as there
will be a.eonfiict between good candidates and
lid candidates
Z There will beias candidates businessmen Of
the very highest ability and most sterling integ.
rity, and there viii be money seeking, wirepull
ing, office grabbing politicians Of the very low
est ability and the most brazen selfishness.
And yet the voters are not awake to this is;
/, she. They are not awake to the fight for eff
cheney in office that will fail unless they do
wake.
That's why political alarm clocks are needed.

DRESSING UP OUR DIplgMAIs

Americans are not greatly interested as a
rule, in what sort of garb their official repre-
sentatives see fit to elothe themselves but most
Americans resent the idea of any garb thai car
ries the air either of .lackeyship or pomp. 1
Now eoiaes Hon John G. A. Leishman, not
long ago ab humble citizen of Pittsburg and a
seller of I4el, who has revived the question OF
the propJ bress,for American diplomats abroad.
Rather be has,ssettled it, so far as he is con-
cerned, for Leishman has designed a dress for
himself and hissecretarial staff that is glitter.
ingly impressive with gold braid and plumed
hats So
1t is an old story that the first American dip
Iomatic uniform was that of an American ann
bassador at st. Petersburg who protested that
he was tired of being mistaken for waiter.or
a butler. Nobody believed this man; his anx-
iety to break into the gold braid class was taken
as evidence Of his conversion to European ways.
On the other hand Uncle Sam & millions of peo-
pie felt a chesty swell of pride when another
diplomat declared that an American needed no
glitter of tinsel and fringed epanlet to secure
recognition from any court, that an American
gentleman's dress was his dress! And the
thought of plain American gentleman, digni-
fled and at ease in his suit Of sober black, amid
the gorgeous foppery of European courts, has
doubtless been a cheering one to many poor
American youth. ~>
Hon. Mr.. Leishman may please himself with
his incursion into the realm of personal adorn-
ment but it is not typical of his nation, and let
us sincerely hope it never will be. America has
never needed pomp and display, nor does our
country, for this reason, fail to bear it's part in
the court of nations. s. =.

Honolulu. August IS. 1912

Honolulu, August Is, 1912.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir would like to have you print
the following article in your paper if
you would be so kind:
Tonight we had Nile. Camille Cam
eron, the singer, at the amusement
hall at this place, aud just after she
lad started to sing. some men in the
lack of the hall started to hiss and
make fun of her. 1t was a very funny
thing, but nobody tried to stop it un-
til Mile. Cameron spoke to them her
self. There were close to eight hun
cred people in the hall. and about
seven hundred and fifty people want
ed to hear her sing and just on &C.
count of those few people who hadn't
any manners, were classed with these
people.
am speaking for the decent people
of the post that like a good show and
enjoy every bit of it, but on account
of the few indecent people, the the
atre people do not like to come out
Eere, as they think they will be in
suited, but, as you know, all soldiers
are Judged by what a few soldiers do,
SO we really can not expect much.
Thanking you for your kind atten
ton to this letter, remain,
Yours very truly,

NOT m HULA DANCE.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir:-In justice to my sister, MISS
O. X. Franco, who was a passenger
to San Francisco by the last Sierra,
4 wish to say that, according to letters
received here from her and other pas
seIlgers, the article which appeared
in the morning paper, on the 18TH
inst, headed, Hula Hula Costumes
Startle Passengers" copied from a
San francisco paper, was erroneous
" reported, Miss Franco did not APP
pear as a hula girl at any social
function held on the Sierra. -.
The falsity of the article in ques-
ton constitutes a wrong and an in
Justice against Miss Franco and her
comrades. Publicity Of this nature
should never be permitted without a
word of contradiction by the steam
er's officers, for, unless facts are
told, the names of passengers may
easily be smirched by such stories,
even. though they are, in most cases,
told tas jokes, Thanking you for

the only man who is surprised and chagrinel
at the apathy of local voters. This apathy is

encumbrances of incompetency and neglect that
have clogged its progress in a shameful and

To the Voters Of Ward County

To the Voters Of Ward County
Gentlemen:
largely signed and also numerous
letters received from voters and
taxpayers of every section of Ward
County, requesting that I become, an
Independent candidate for the Office
of County Superintendent of schools.
| have decided to accept this request
and become candidate for the Office
at the eletion to he held in Novem.
Der next.
I know of no bigger, better work
or a field of greater usefulness.
There is much to do and much that
can and should be done, to one who
has the training, experience and
capacity to undertake the work.
There are today in the United
States, 250,OO0 school buildings which
have teen erected at cost Of $780,
100000. To control and direct these
schools we employ five hundred
thousand teachers. AS a nation we
spend every year $500, 100000 to pay
\ teachers wages and the upkeep ct
the schools. No nation on the globe
can begin to approach us as peo-
pie in the generous expenditure OF
such vast sums of money for the
education of the children of the ma
ton. There are 25,0O0,O00 children Of
school age in the United States Of
this number 100000 are enrolled
in the Elementary grades and mil
lion in the High School grades. 1t is
10th interesting and suggestive TO-
know that but six out Of every 100
pupils who enter the High school
and of those who finish the High
school. tut five out Of every one
hundred. enter The portals of our
universities and colleges as students.
What is true of the country at large
generally speaking, is equally true OF
our state.
The total value of school buildings
in North Dakota is $S,353,134. 93. We
spend annually for the maintenance
OF our common and high schools,
$5,713,61O.7S. It is suggestive and
worthy Of grave consideration to
realize that Of the $4,000 pupils en-
rolled in the common schools Of our
state, 132,6SS are in the so.-ca]led
Elementary Schools, and but 5,473 in
our high schools. OF the 5,473 who
