MOTT SMITH REPLIES TO CARTER
ON CLEANUP DAY QUESTION

Acting Governor Mott-Smith replied
to George R. Carters statement that
cleanup day was not good thing and
simply shifted the responsibility OF
preserving sanitary cleanliness from
the public authorities to public-spirit-
ed citizens by making the statement
this morning that a cleanup day
cleans the city, demonstrates civic
pride in cleanliness, and ,sustains the
reputation of Hawaii in that respect.
The acting governor further an
nounced that he intends to urge that
reports be made by voluntary inspec-
tors as to the conditions of the places
they have visited. These reports
would then be turned over to the
Board of Health and delinquent citi-
zens could then be notified to clean
up by the proper authorities.
The following is the acting cover
nor's statement:
THE advantage of cleanup does
not appear altogether clear to Mr..
George r. Carter. 1t cleans the city.
1t demonstrates civic pride in cleanli-
ness and sustains the reputation OF
Hawaii in that respect. 1t makes
the public a party to public sanitation
and gets the public into action for a
cleaner city If governmental re-
forms are needed and if the burden of
responsibility is not sufficiently borne
by public officials, what better way is
there to secure such reforms or to eff
fectively place such responsibility
than by a cleanup day conducted by
citizens, and at the same time secure

A GOOD PLAN.

a resident of Phoenix has suggested
a splendid plan fer the selection OF
the commission provided for in the
new plan OF government adopted by
that city last week. This proposal is
included in the following which was
addressed to the Arizona Democrat:
zone of the matters Of utmost i'm
portance TO the city is that the com.
mission that is 10 be selected under
the new charter when approved, shall
be composed of men of integrity and
ability who will conduct the affairs OF
the city as a strictly business prop.
osition and that all party politics
shall be eliminated.
That the latter proposition may be
effected suggest that the two city
central committees be called TO meet
in joint session and select one huh.
bred of the leading citizens of the
city and request them 10 meet ano
suggest the name of three commits
sioners whose names shall be placed
before the electors to compose the
first board.
1t appears to me that if selected
in some such way as this that TIRES
men would be found who would make
a personal sacrifice in order &c
serve. Selected in this way and Sc
elected would be a credit to any man
in the city of Phoenix and wouls
certainly result in getting the bes
possible government"
One Of the supposed chief virtues
OF the commission form OF govern
ment for municipalities is the elimina
ton OF politics or political favoritisH
and the proposition in Phoenix viii d.
this.

The article sent out from Phoenix

ing deprived of the electoral vote

ing question to say the least, but We
predict that this state viii not be
deprived Of its electoral vote be-
cause one OF three on the canvassing
board is disqualified to act. To our
mind the two remaining legal mem.

should call the Legislature at once

The plea Of guilty entered BY

this weak-minded criminal has become

this country should be governed By
bullets and stilletos rather than by
Law. Schrank had been led To believe
that he vas justified in removing
