TIME BUSINESS
MEN COT BUSY
HONOLULU NEEDS A BUSINESS
BOARD AND BUSINESS
SHOULD SEE TO 1T.


eve have been hearing about the
iongshoromen Is tickets and fshmarket
tickets and politicians tickets long
enough. said a prominent business
man yesterday. "why do not the
business men prepare a ticket and then
stick to it and see that their ticket
gets considerations
"The business men of Honolulu not
only pay the bulk of the taxes in the
city and Territory, but they also pay
the cost of carrying on the Republican
campaign, from precinct primaries to
election. 1t is about time they got
some consideration in the ticket
making business. For my part am
tired and sick of seeing the Clarks,
Murrays, Krugers, Ayletts, Dwights,
Lilikalanis, Mahoes and such, eternally
figuring in the municipal scheme of
things. Whoever heard of any one of
them ever coming forward when there
is some real work. to do for Honolulu or
Hawaii, or who ever heard of them con-
tributing either money or effort or any
thing else except gas to help on the
eityf When some real work is re-
quired, who in the name of common
sense would go to the men we see
named always on the proposed ticketsi
Why then, when we are considering the
selection of men to handle our public
business for two years, and two years
of such great Importance as the two to
come, do we not turn to the real work
ers of Honolulu, the men who do things,
the ones we would naturally turn to if
something turned up that had to be
done intelligently, economically and
with minimum of friction7
'Q t'My ticket, which is a sample Bust
s, ness Mems Ticket would be something
like, this:
'Mayor-Sam johnson.
"Supervisors-J. Z. Jaeger, B. Won
/. Dammg James Quinn, John Hughes,
,sAndrey Cox, A. d. Castro and Charley
H,nstace.
~ I" Auditor-James Bicknel.
-'9J"' GleTk-D. Kalauokalani, Jr.
P. Jarrett.
"Deputy Sheriff-Charley Rose.
Treasurer Charles Hustace, Jr.
Getty Attorney-C. C. Biting.
"That, or something like it, is my
idea of a ticket 1t has on it workers
and thinkers, men who have done things
for the city and who could be depended
upon not to do the baby act and the
kindergarten show on every possible
occasion or at all. The ticket is non
partisan and has a fair proportion of
Hawaiians. 1t is capable of amend
ment, probably, because prepared in a
hurry but at least it does not have
any of the dead wood in it that the
Taxpayers here have been supporting
and putting up with for so long, heaven
only knows why
A Composite Ticket.
Another ticket was handed in to The
Advertiser yesterday. 1t is what the
Trainer termed ga composite ticket. ~

Interest Awakening.
"That national politics does not take
the entire time of the local politicians
is evident by the manner in which the
local political situation is being dis
cussed on the street, said the Trainer
of the above. "The suggestions made
by one of the afternoon papers a day
or so ago. and the slate with very much
favor and several changes are being
offered by those in the ring.
"One important change suggested is
the dropping of Jno. w. Cathcart for
the office of city attorney and the pro-
posal of f. w. Milverton as a likely
candidate for that office. Mr.. Milver-
ton S friends urge that no better man
could be named for the position and
point with pride to Mr.. Milverton IS
record as prosecuting attorney.
"Bertram Won Damn is suggested
for the head of the police department
and there is a general and united opin-
ion that Won Damn would make a good
sheriff. msurgent Manoa is back of
Mr.. Won Damn in this movement and
big fight is to be made for their
man."
