EMPEROR MUTsUHITo DEAD
Had Occupied Throne of Japan for as
Years.

Toxic, Japan, July S0.-Mutsuhito,
for As yecss emperor of Japan, died
at 12.43 o'clock in Toxic this morning
Everything known to science was
done to prOlong the life of the sover-
eign. The whole nation watched pa
thetically, because the death OF the
emperor would establish a new record
in the history of Japan, and the peo
pie chung almost fiercely to the tradi
ton with which the dying monarch ap
peared indissolubly linked. The out
come was inevitable from the first
acute developments on the 18th.
Death was due to acute nephritis,
otherwise known as bright's disease
This was complicated by diabetes and
an intestinal affection.
At the end more than 10000 sub
jects silently paid their last homage
outside the palace gates. 1t was a
marvellous scene when messengers sill
emily mingled with the crowds and
posted announcements of the emper-
or's death. Deep emotion swept the
multitude, but there was no evidence
of excitement The only sound was
a longdrawn sigh of sorrow.
Mutsuhito, 12lst emperor of Japan
will occupy in history the fortunate
place of the first ruler of the island
empires enlightened era This era
may be said to have begun before
Mutsuhito ascended the throne, but
he succeeded his father, Emperor no
mel. az the age of Is, and the advance
of Japan to a place among the fully
civilized nations has been practically
COMPENSATED with his reign That
his personality had much to do with
this progress is fully testified to by
careful observers from Europe and
America, though his actual part in
leadership is obscured by the oriental
tradition of reticence concerning the
monarchs person and the custom of
giving him credit for whatever of
good has been accomplished within
the realm. He is to be classed, at all
events, with the makers of modern
Japan, whether or not he is to be con.
| sidered the master workman.

FORCING The RACE ISSUE.

Having started in with the cry of
xiii Kuhio," the morning organ that
has apolOgized from seven to nine
times for its attacks ON the the Ha-
waiians and its general disposition to
disCredit the electorate, now tries to
make out that the Delegate Is forcing
the race issue.
One statement of truth Is made in
the editorial this morning and only
one. II is that the appeal to race
prejudice will fail as II should"
The record of the newspaper ka-
naka haters whose utterances have
been repudiated and scored in meas
ured terms is proof of this They have
forced the race issue and met immed-
late condemnation. So what's the
sense of hammering along on the same
old line and from day to day indulging
IN a brand of comment that does
nothing but arouse distrust In the
minds of the Hawaiian Americans and
disgust among those who wish to have
n few rules of common sense applied
to the political situation.
The outfit that is spelling for u
fight" and opposing every plan for
partiLan harmony. Is the same one
that evolved the wonderful third party
movement, that has necessarily at
tackled and misrepresented the cleo
torate, that has been voted down and
out on every occasion when II has
come to square verdict before the
people, and that has had no other
text than rule or ruin-thanks to the
good sense Of the people It has been
unable to either rule or ruin.
The situation is not changed. Moth
ing can be gained for Hawaii at home
or in Washington by forcing Il factiun-
al fight In the primaries and the con
vention to name delegates to Chicago.
Unreasonable harm can be done by
such contest. and the greatest in
Jury will be that which will b. car
ried over into the municipal and les
islative campaign.
You cant carry through strong
municipal and Legislative ticket in the
face of fractional fight. That's as
sure as the rising and setting OF the
sun.
If chaos is desired, force the fight
ing and keep at 1t til you get your

QUARANTINE TO
FIGHT FLY PEST

Following a conference with the At
tOJney General this morning, during
which w. NJ. Glflard explained the sit
uation In regard to the Mediterranean
fruit fly pest at KOhala, Hawaii, rules
and regulations are to be drawn up
to prevent the spread of the pest IN
other parts Of the Big Island.
., it has been practically settled THAT
no fruit will be allowed out 0f the
kohala district until the fly has been
fought right back and IL considered
under control. This Is looked on as
being the only feasible means for pre-
venting Its spread.
The people of Kohala realize what
they are up against and understand
that onl ythe most drastic steps are
Of any use. They are also prepared
to put up their share of the expense
and will carry the fight to the end.
The regulations are to be the same
to all-intents and purposes as for Ho-
nolulu with the exception of course
that special provisions will have to be
made for the Kohala district.
