JAPANINTENDs TO- PUSH COMMERCIAL
DEVELOPMENT IN CENTRAL AMERICA

YOKOHAMA, May 1.-THE Jiji ex-
presses great satisfaction over the fact
that the Japanese have acquired extern
sive fishery rights on the Mexican
coast, but regrets that the so-called
Magdalena Bay problem has cropped
up again. Although it has now been
conclusively proved there was no po-
litical or military significance in the
Japanese acquisition of fishery rights,
the Jill takes the present opportunity
to address few words to the American
people in general.
First the Jill would like to ask Amer
leans to preserve a calm mind and
conduct careful investigation before
delivering any verdict, should there
arise any cause of apprehension in
regard to the relations between Japan
and the Latin American States. Sec
ondly the journal wishes it to be rec
ognized by Americans that the rela-
tions between Japan and the Latin
American States in respect of trade
and immigration are bound to grow
more and more intimate. Although, as
things stand at present, Japan has but
| little interest in those States, yet with
the acquisition of large fishery rights in
Mexico and Viscount Oura' s gigantic
colonial and agricultural enterprises in
Brazil it is plain that there is great
future for japanese enterprise in Latin
America. The Jiji declares it possible
that in the course of time the Japan
ese may acquire the use or ownership
of land in close proximity to that
which the United States has acquired
for strategical purposes. Such develop
ments will not result from deliberate
designs on the part of the Japanese
but may come accidentally. Unless the
United States clearly understand the
true intentions of the japanese there
is no saying put that another misun
Outstanding may occur again. There
fore the Jill hopes that Americans
will be generous enough to recognize
from now on that the Japanese, like
other civilized people, have the right
and are destined to prosecute CONNER
cial activities in the Latin American
States. -
The well-known "Outsider, writing
on the Magdalena Bay question in the
Kokumin of May 10, pays a great
tribute to the fairness and insight OF
the New York Independent. Quoting
the passage from the American maya
zine to the effect that, should the Unit
ed States and Japan come in conflict, il
would be entirely the fault of the for
mer, "Outsider" declares this to be &
most appropriate warning. Further
quoting from the Independents articl,
a passage referring to an alleged secret
understanding between Mr.. Lodge ant
Mr.. Meyer, the secretary of the Navy
the writer goes on say that Japan hal
been most shamefully and disgracefully
treated, for, after having been suspect
ed and falsely charged with fictitious
crimes and severely chastised therefor
she is to be used as a tool by those
American statesmen who seek naval es
Inmates.
"Outsider" then proceeds to say
that Japan does not need the dss
patch of peace-missionaries from tn,
United States. If supply should q
where demand is felt, the place need
ing peace-propagandists is surely some
where in America, not Japan. To al
intents and purposes Japan il a paeif'

JOHN LANE HAS
POLITICAL PLAN
SCHEME INCLUDES "PRErEREN.
T1AL PRIMARY"--PEoPLB GET
DIRECT VOTE, HE SAYS.

John G. Lane has once more sprung
into the limelight with a new scheme
to settle all political questions. In eff
feet he would give the voters a direct
chance to say who shall be their next
mayor, treasurer, sheriff, etc.
His scheme is n preferential plan"
whereby the voters at the primaries are
given an opportunity to vote as TO their
preference for the above named and
all other officers. 1t is a direct pri-
mary in embryo.
For instance, his plan involves the
candidates with their lightning rods
out, they announce themselves early in
the season. When the primary cleo.
tions come along the voters in each
precinct are to ballot on whether they
want John Smith, John Doe or Richard
Brown for mayor. Lane would do
away with conventions to select nomi-
nees for office.
This may be one of the suggestions
which may be laid before the rules
committee of the Republican party
which meets this evening in the
chamber of commerce rooms. There
are a number of weighty questions to
be considered by that body, and Lane IS
may be one of them.
Link McCandless and w. G. Achi are
not in favor of the Won Damn plan to
divide the list of supervisors between
the two districts on this Island. Each
claims that their respective parties
4 would not have n chance. Link is posi-.
tive that the Republican party would
get all the benefits, while Achi is just
as certain that the Democratic party
would derive all the benefits.

"When my boy was six years old, he

for the itching was dreadful. He would

everything but the eczema seemed to

nation. Unless her honor be grossly
wounded, Japan has always shown her
self willing to make any sacrifice to
maintain peace, as is borne out by facts,
and evidently recognized by the In
dependent.
Although the Kokumin writer does
not know the underlying motives of the
American manufacturers of false re-
ports, yet he believes that there can
be no smoke without fire, so that he
must perforce conclude that there is
some deep-laid malicious intent con.
cealed under these false alarms. "Out
sider' then concludes with the follow
ing words:
CAN unbiased observer would in
variably have acknowledged that dur
ing the past twenty years of American
Japanese intercourse Japan has com
mitted not one act of improperly oil
breach of faith; so that we feel il
extremely regrettable that the Ameri
can public should not have appreciated
the Japanese attitude and that un
dreamed of calumnies should have beer
hurled against Japan"

BEATS WIFE AND
THEN TRIES HANGING
M. R. FREITAs ENTICEs WOMAN
TO LONELY SPOT AND THEN
BRUTALLY ASSAULTS HER.
(From Wednesdays Advertiser. }


With no apparent motive but malice
and brutality Manuel R. Freitas en-.
ticed his wife into the mountains yes.
terday afternoon on the pretext of cut
ting grass for mattress, assaulted her
in lonely spot on Tantalus, beat her
and finally tied her up to small tree
and returned to his home believing her
dead The woman managed to free
herself notified the police and the man
is now under arrest.
The woman was in delicate condi.
ton and protested against starting out
on the expedition yesterday morning,
but he insisted upon having her accom-
pany him and about o'clock they
left their home at Alapai and Prospect
streets with rope, sacks and knives.
While Mrs. Freitas was bending over
cutting grass and stuffing it in a sack
Freitas suddenly made vicious attack
upon her, knocked her down and tied
the rope which he carried, about her
neck. The loose end he threw over the
branch of a large guava tree and pulled
her up.
As she hung there screaming and

alleges and finally she lost conscious
ness. When she recovered she was ly-
ing on the ground, bleeding from the
nose and mouth. The rope had broken.
She fastened home and telephoned at
once for the police. The sergeant on
duty and two officers responded in the
police machine. When they arrived
at the house they found Mrs. Freitas
exhausted and so distracted by her ter
rible experience that she could tell
them little. With the guidance of a
Portuguese they found the spot where
the attempted murder had been per
petrated and trailed Freitas back to
his home by the patches of cut grass
The man had evidently gone on with
his grass cutting as though nothing had
happened after he had left his wife
hanging to the guava tree.
Shortly after they arrived at the
house he returned and was taken at
once to the station where he protested
that he had been crazed by rheumatism
and had perpetrated the outrage upon
his wife while in a frenzy of pain.

Ed TOWSE URGES FREE
GARBAGE COLLECTIONS

Ed Towse, representing the Oahu
Central Improvement Committee, laid
before the supervisors last night, the
report on free garbage and motorizing
the garbage department equipment,
favorably passed upon at the last meet
ing of the committee. Mr.. Towse call
ed attention to experiments made with
the present mule and wagon equipment
in gathering garbage from Kaimuki, a
five-mile haul as against garbage col
lected by motOr-driven vehicles all in
favor of the motor test. He advocated
the adoption of the motor plan as a
means to clean up Kaimuki, Palolo,
Manoa, PunehbOwl, Nuuanu and Ka-
lihi.
Supervisor Mcclellan inquired wheth-
err the committee had any plan to offer
whereby the free garbage method could
be Offset, owing to the hole it would
create in the city's finances. He stated
that the city was not in a position to
give a free garbage system, at present.
lie thought there was room for legis.
lative aid.
Mr.. Towse, in answer to a question,
said he thought the residents of Kai-
muki would be willing to pay for re-
moval of garbage, if motor-driven vehi-
cles were sent to that district.
