Chief Justice Robertson is the au-

on the argument of the company for
judgment, he intimates that the
procedure under the statute has been
somewhat lax in the past.
BESIDES refusing to enter judgment,
the court dismisses the entire pro.

BAR ASSOCIATION DINNER
At THE YOUNG THIS EVENING

Tonight at 1880 the Hawaiian Bar
Association will assemble around the
festive board at the Alexander Young
Eotel for its annual dinner.
Probably the president, Frank e.
Thompson, will himself officiate as
toastmaster, which means that the
feast of reason and flow of soul, fol-
lowing the cafe noir, will not lag.
There are only two regular atl-
dresses on the program, instead Of
three as announced at the annual
meeting. Lorrin A. Thurston, who
was down for a paper on "The Re.
call of Judicial Decisions" has sent
lis regret that a previous engage

To the Readers and Patrons Of the
Hawaiian Star and the General
Public.
The Hawaiian Star Newspaper AS
sociation, Ltd, was incorporated
March 5, 1898, by ]. S. McGrew, John
Emmeluth, Geo. w. Smith, David b.
Smith and Alfred S. Hartwell, "for
the promotion of the general inter-
ests of the people of the Hawaiian
Islands and with the avowed and dis.
tinct purpose of promoting annexation
to the United States"
It's first paper was published, March
2S, 1893, and it's first managing editor
was Mr.. Walter G. Smith. The paper
at once took prominent place in the
island community and became a force
in working for annexation to the Unit
ed States. Annexation having been
accomplished in August, 1898, the pa.
per still continued in it's efforts to
build up strong. American sentiment
throughout the islands.
About the time annexation was ac.
complished Mr.. Frank L. Hoogs was
the manager of the paper and as
those who had held the control had
seen their hopes realized and Mr..
Hoogs desired to purchase the control
of the stock the same was sold to him.
1t was conducted under his manage.
ment until his death February 20,
1908. The control was then purchased
by Mr.. Chas. H. Atherton for himself
and family.
For the following three years owing
to press of other business duties he
was able to give but little time or
thought to the general building up of
the paper, with the result that it's
and power had begun to
recede, when in January, 1911, the de.
cision was reached to try and build
up the paper to its former prestige
and place in the community. The
of its first editor, Mr. Walter
G. Smith, were secured and manv i'm.
inaugurated, which have
resulted in once more establishing
the paper as a recognized force and

Kuhio May
Head a New
Party Here

Like the politicians all over the
country, the men in the great ma
tional game here are very eagerly
watching events at Chicago, for they
see, in the rapid changes taking place
there, the prospects of a complete
new alignment here. All seems to
depend on what Roosevelt does, or
what is done to him but as matters
stand there is large element here
ready to jump into line for a third
party-if Roosevelt starts one in the
national field.
1t is said that this is the real OBJ
ject of Delegate Kuhio's return at
this time aside from the fact that he
didn't want to attend the national con-
vention and sit as delegate with
Governor Frear. Kuhio wouldn't have
accepted the duty of delegate any

power throughout the islands.
With the growth of the business 1t
became absolutely necessary to find
larger quarters, with the result that
arrangements were made ror the cree.
tion and equipment of a new building
especially for the company. Plans
have been under way for some time
to purchase a new press to furnish
the paper with the best facilities pos.
sible.
Although the designations of he
editor and also the business manager
came at practically the same time,
they were both for reasons entirely
personal to both parties and came as
mere coincidence. Negotiations
were at once begun to fill both Of
these places and good progress was
being made
Less than ten days ago a mutual
friend of the controlling owners of the
Bulletin and Star approached both
parties urging that some effort be
made to amalgamate both papers. 1t
was pointed out that 1t would be
distinct benefit to the community at
large as we'll as both corporations.
Several meetings were held with the
following result:
The controlling owners of the Ha.
waiian Star Newspaper Association,
Ltd, which are Mr.. C. II. Atherton
and the j. B. Atnerton Estate, Ltd,
have now completed the purchase of
a large majority of the stock of the
Bulletin Publishing Company, Ltd,
and therefore plan to amalgamate the
two corporations as soon as prp atiea-
BILE which will probably be on July
l, 1912
Messrs. c. H. Atherton, F. C. Ather-
ton and the J. B. Atherton Estate,
Ltd, will be the controlling owners
of the combined companies and di-
rect the general editorial and news
policy of the paper.
Mr.. w. r. harrington, the present
of the Bulletin Publishing
Co., Ltd, will be the general business
of the combined companies.
The details of the merger, name of
The Hawaiian star., 1912-06-15

/ the combined corporations, the editor
and future plans for the papers will
be announced from time to time as
these matters are decided upon.
The owners of the Star believe tha,
the amalgamatiun or these papers
will work to the mutual advantage of
all concerned. We believe that the
leading and professional men of these
! islands now realize as never
before that Hawaii is on the eve Of
wonderful growth and development.
that all lines of trade and activities
are taking on new life, that the prob
lens confronting us here are large
and serious ones and that they will
require the best thought and endeavor
of all the citizens of this Territory.
That the time has come to forget
past differences and unfriendly feel.
ings and unite in a common cause
for the upbuilding of these islands on
high and progressive planes. That
we must get together more and sTnR
our minor differences and each and
every one put his shoulder to the
wheel and be willing to make sacrl-
fees and work for the material, moral
and spiritual advancement of all the
peoples of this Territory.
One of the great drawbacks in ac.
complishing this end has been the an.
tipathy on the part of the press to
various causes and peoples and to
each other. There is certainly large
work for each one to do and the press
should lead the way. The press
should be a powerful force in leading
and moulding public opinion, and we
believe the men interested in the
press of this Territory are ready and
prepared to lead the way.
We have therefore welcomed this
opportunity to unite with our even
ing contemporary, to forget past diff
ferences, and go forward with the pur-
pose of leading in all that is progress.

peoples of this Territory

Heights. and one of the most popular
turfmen in the country, Will have the
distinction of sending the favorite in
the Kentucky Oaks to the post. He has
his smart filly, Beautiful, engaged in
this rich classic next Tuesday. and
present indications are that she will
rule the odds-on favorite in the 1912 re-
newal 80 this famous classic.
Her sensational mile in 1889 over the
Douglas Park track has had the effect
of causing a heavy play on her chances,
and the result is that Mr.. Flynn's sterl-
ing performer now rules the top-heavy
favorite for the Oaks. Should she an
mex the long end of the Oaks purse it
would be the Hrst time that a Chicag
owned thoroughbred has scored such a
victory.
Following a sensational trial on the
part of the Latonia Derby candidate,
Sprite, Trainer Karrick offered to wa
ger any part of $4,000 that she would
defeat Worth, winner of the 1912 re-
newal of the Kentucky Derby. The clas-
sic is to be run off at Latonia June s..
and great excitement centers around
the event inasmuch as in all its long
career a FLY three-year-old never be-
fore figured as a possible winner.
Sprite worked a sensational mile and
an eighth at Douglas Park Sunday
