report Will show such decided improve

musical specialties.

gagement in the evening. The come
dams and other members of the com
pany will have local sallies anent
their departure. 1t is safe to say that
a bumper house will greet the per-
formers on their last public appear

has arranged a special musical pro-
gram for the evening, and with the
other specialties interspersed in the
play very pleasant evening is in
store for Bijou audiences.
For one week, commencing Mon
day, the Bijou will go back to vaude-
vile, with two strong acts as a
starter. Anita Diaz and her troupe
of trained monkeys will be the big
feature. The monkeys are very intel
ligent and go through many amusing
as well as difficult stunts The act,
Fun in a Dentist Shop" is a scream.
This turn is interesting to adults as
well as children.
The other big feature will be re-
markable acrobatic feats by Schoeno,
Trip and Schoene, arrivals by the

cessful engagement on the Sullivan
e Considine circuits. They are equi-

New Acts for Empire.
While the Empire is featuring mov-
ing pictures this week to very large
audiences, the vaudeville program,
which consists of Frances and Bence,
will be augmented by those clever

eccentric dances are still fresh IN
memory. They have just returned
from a very successful tour of Aus
tralia and New Zealand and will only
remain here a short while, as they
have important engagements on the
mainland.

THE NEW DEAL
IN NEW ZEALAND

Yesterday The Star was able TO
give the first published news in Ho-
nolulu regarding the latest positions
of political parties in New Zealand.
At the present juncture, therefore,
the prediction promises of w. F..
Massey, published in the Sydney
Daily Telegraph, are interesting:
w. f. Massey, who may succeed to
the New Zealand premiership as the
result of the second ballots on Thurs
! day next, has announced the policy
OF his party as reform in financial
methods, and in the native land adj
ministration, the legislative council,
the appointment of public servants,
and the railway system. Asserting
that the Ward government has tenn
ported on the freehold question, he
announces that the land policy Of
the opposition is to give to every set
tier who goes on to Crown lands
the right to the freehold, maintain
ing also that so long as section Of
Grown, native, or privately-owned
| land is unoccupied, It is the duty OF
a government to make that section
available to settlement on the easiest
| possible terms
"You have here millions of acres of
unoccupied land" said Mr.. Massey, in
a recent speech, and in spite of that,
young men are unable to get land,
and leaving this country for other
countries" A friend of his, he de-
clared, had been saddened at meet
ing so many young New Zealanders in
Queensland. AS to native lands, he
complains that millions of acres are.
lying idle and unoccupied, and con-
tributing nothing to the taxation. He
did not wish to raise class distinc-
tions, but he was opposed to any sys-
tenn of landlordism, whether state or
native; and every man going on to
the land ought to have the right to
make that land his own. Men living
on native land were improving it by
the expenditure of capital and labor,
and at the end of their lease it would
pass back again to the Maoris. This
state of things should not be allowed
to exist. The Maoris should be placed,
as far as possible, in the position Of
Europeans, and should understand
that if they enjoyed the same privil-
eyes they would have to take the
same responsibilities.
So far as finance is concerned, Mr..
Massey contends that the policy of
the Ward government has been one,
of reckless borrowing The Reform
party Gas the opposition is called,
does not condemn borrowing, he says,
so long as it is restricted to an
amount commensurate with the re-
quirements of the country, but six
and one-half millions in one year can
not be called moderate borrowing.
