TRIED SUICIDE

Passengers in the second class
coaches on the Oahu Railway & Land
Company train from Wahiawa to Ho-
nolulu this morning were tlrown into
a panic thr 1ugh the repeated attempts
upon the part OF a crazed Japanese to
commit hari-kari.
Nino. a laborer. with the railroad
company, who has been employed on
a section of road near the pineapple
plantations, has been acting queerly
for some weeks past.
Several of his countrymen decided
to take charge of the man, and he
was placed aboard the morning train,
to be taken TO relatives in this city.
While the train was speeding be-
tween Wahaiwa and Pearl City, the
Japanese sked permission of his COM
panion to leave his seat and to step
OFT on the platform,
The japanese went into one OF the
toilet rooms, and was gone for some
minutes before he was missed. When

It is a long document covering the

cisions from The supreme court of the
United States on the failure of other
states or territories to provide for

The question comes up because the

public by introducing 1t, ..~....
Among their friends, however,
these legislators have been free to dis
cnss the feature, and on seNeIa; occa.
sions have been heard to say they
could see no reason why the women
receiving mems pay, entering into
competition with men and receiving
all the privileges accorded the latter,
should not assume equal responsible
;ty in the eyes of the law, They
argue that in great many instances,
numbering probably several nunGrec
women with little or no family TO sup
pert are receiving equal or even great
er salary than men in Hawaii. 1t is
stated that about two-thirds of the
teaching staff in the islands consists
of women .
"The man receiving $40 month and
supporting family of two 10 eight
cI even greater number OF children,
must turn back his S. per year to the
territory" they argue While 1t is
a hardship on that man, yet if he can
and does do it, the women, who re-
ceive on an average fifty per cent
mere than that amount, and few of
whom have anyone dependent on
them. can and certainly ought TO con
tribute equally TO the government"
Their intended measure would ap-
ply only TO women employed by the
territorial goyernment, but would af-
feet all such employees.

Steamship Yucatan Chartered
for Trip to Hawaii
at Once
CONTRACTORS WOULD
SECURE HANDS HERE
Facing Dearth of Labor in Far
North, Packers Prepare to
Renew Local Campaign

Hawaii Is facing another bitter war
against labor raiders.
Planning anotner series of efforts
TO secure unskilled laEor here, en-
ploying contractors of the coast have
made arrangements to charter the big
steamship Yucatan, to sail from San
Francisco to Hawaii and load the ves-
sci here with Filipinos and other
immigrants in preparation for ship
ping them to the big Alaskan salmon
canneries.
Tne troubles of two years ago seem
likely TO De repeated. Agents of the
big Alaska Packers Association,
backed by its millions of dollars, are
again on the still hunt for labor, and
just as happened in 1911, they have
TUNED to Hawaii as source of
supply.
News has been received here with.
in the past few days, and confirmed
by further informal tion arriving this
morning, that the Yucatan, chartered
on behalf Of the packers from the
Alaska Steamship Company, is now
being outfitted for an expedition sim
liar to that of the steamship Sena-
tor In 1911. The Senator sailed in
the spring of 1911 on secret mission
for Hawaii Some days before her
arrival, ii was definitely ascertained
that she had been chartered by labor
contractors in the employ of the
Alaska Packers Association For
weeks before the Senator arrived
here agents had been going about
among the plantations and in and
around Honolulu, signing up FiIipinos,
Portuguese, Spanish, Hawaiian and
at the Alaskan canneries around Bris-
to! bay The glowing promises held
ont by the agents induced a large
number of men to quit work and
come to town. where they were colo
nized While waiting to go aboard the
Senator.
May Revive Erter Fight.
The bitter fis.- between the Hawai-
ian planters and the agents stirred
the Aentire territory. In the end the
agents got away with a few hundred
men; many Of whom deserted when
the Senator reached San Francisco
and never went to the canneries. The
territorial legislature, then in session,
rushed through laws making it He
gal for unlicensed agents to solicit
labor to leave the territory and put
ting otiTer stringent restrictions on
their activities. Some of the agents,
white and otherwise. were promptly
arrested and the power of the courts
invoked. The cases dragged from
court to court and even now one OF
the cases against Frank Craig. the
chief agent of the raiders, has been
postponed from month to month in
the police court pending the disposi-
ton of sort of test case in the up
per courts.
Since the Senator left and the
agents departed vowing vengeance
On the planters for blocking their
deep-laid plans, little has been heard
of the labor raiders. Within the past
few weeks the Alaska canneries, 1t
appears. have been calling for more
men. The canning season opens
shortly and there is dearth OF laeor
The cannery fleet winters in Oakland
creek and is now preparing for the

HA VI All TROOPS
Will N 0 I Go
TO MEXICO

If the United States intervenes in
Maxico, there is no chance of the Ha-
waiian garrisons being called TO the
front This is the opinion of high
ranking army officers here, who are
in a position to know whereof they
speak Hawaii is of such tremendous
importance to the defense of the
western coast in the event of a war
with an Oriental power, that now that
a still inadequate force has been sent
here, it will not be withdrawn. Incl
dentally the impression prevails in
local circles that Intervention is in
eyitable and that il will mean nothing
less than a war with Mexico which
may drag on for years.
1t has been figured out by tactical
experts of the general staff in Wash
ington that including the large force
necessary to keep the lines of COM
munication open, it will take an army
of 900, 900 men to Invade Mexico and
rot ONLY strike an effective blow, but
follow up success. This means that
decision for armed Intervention
would have to be Immediately fol-
lowed by a call for volunteers, as it
was decided by the attorney general
of the United States at the time OF
the last Mexican scare that the organ
ized militia could not be ordered be-
yond the borders of the United States.
National guard organizations, then,
would nave TO be mustered into the
regular service, and the tremendous
problems or organizing, training and
supplying field armies undertaken.
If Mexico City were captured by a
small army, say army officers, the
Mexicans would only have TO withdraw
their forces and organize for another
assault, or simply wait for the next
move Of tile United States. II would
be folly to intervene with an made
qtIate force.
Means Long War.

Whoever is governor of Hawaii after

The senate tackled an amendment

a year to the governor of Hawaii for

near-sighted that they did not realize
