QUESTIONS WHALEY VERDICT

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir:-As a rule / desire to keep as
far as possible from all courts. iuries
and their workings, but must con-
fess that l am greatly interested in
the method and balloting by which the
jury in the Whaley case arrived at the
verdict of first degree manslaughter.
If Whaley killed bis wife by the dis
charge of gun, he is guilty of MUIR
der in some degree. that degree to be
settled on by the jury. Even if the
shot. was fired in the described scuffle
for the Weapon "a weapon that was
capable Of taking life, and was espe-
cially manufactured for that purpose)
and fired by .Whaley, he is guilty of
murder in same degree. l fail to see
where manslaughter figures in the
case at all
Then, again. If Whaley did not fire
the shot, but the gun was discharged
through the agency of the woman, it
would seem, according to all sense of
Justice, that Whalcy is not guilty of
anything in any degree.
1t seems to be the consensus of
opinion that Whaley is or is not gull
ty of mhr1er in some degree. Man
slaughte hes not seem to fit in this
case. -
JUSTICE.

SAYING THE WILD BIRDS

Every humanely constituted person will re-
joice that the new tariff law prohibits the impor
tation of aigrettes or the plumage Of any wild
fowl. An impression had gained ground here
that this provision in the tariff bill had been
stricken out by the senate and not restored by
the joint conference committee The house,
thanks to the vigorous work of the Audubon So
ciety and other organizations, framed this part
of the tariff bill expressly to protect wild fowl,
to check their wholesale destruction by market-
hunters who sell the skins and feathers for mil
linery uses In the senate an attempt was made
to eliminate this clause and Senator Reed of Mis-
souri, delivered himself of q speech in which he
said that the movement to protect the birds was
silly sentimentalism. According to report, the
senate killed the plumage clause, but evidently
the vigorous efforts of the bird lovers have been
crowned with welldeseryed victory.
America is by far the largest consumer OF
birdskins and feathers, buying hundreds OF
thousands of dollars worth abroad annually
This trade will now be stopped. It will mean
loss of business to the milliners, but in the end
fashions will change to accommodate themselves
to changed conditions, Meanwhile, the indis-
criminate and cruel slaughter of wild birds will
be greatly reduced. r%

EDITOR

is no benefit to be conferred on the transporta-
ton facilities of the community. Until the pas
sage of the local improvement bills by the last
legislature, the general fund perforce stood the
drain of special improvement work, but it should
do SO no longer.
1t would seem that the supervisors, in consul
tation with real estate experts and businessmen,
improvement clubs and the commercial organi-
cations, should designate the main arteries of
traffic and make the general fund pay at least
so per cent of the improvement expense The
supervisors would then be in a position to insist
that local improvement districts pay the assess
ments for other street improvement
The general fund, with saving, of 500, 900 a
year, would be able to pay for number of
municipal projects now held up for. lack of
money a free garbage system, for instance,
or a municipal hospital, or children's play
grounds 1.ss..f .e.
1t is true that the people of,Honolulu are fac
ing harder times than they have experienced for
some years, and it is difficult to convince prop
erty-owners, particularly the smaller property
owners, that they should form local improve
ment districts and bear the burden of street
opening and streetpaving. But at least the city
officials may insist that none but sorely-needed
improvement work be done from the general
fund, and that if any particular section of Ho-

WELCOME THE CHINESE BALL
TEAM

& OCT s, 1918.
Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin,
Sir:-Not very long after the civic
convention ended there appeared an
article written by one of the Japanese
editors in which he stated the fact
that prominent Chinese and Japanese
editors were not invited to take part
In the meetings and doings of the
convention. The Advertiser, in reply,
stated that that article should have
been written before the convention
took place. i. e. the public should be
reminded beforehand. So
wish to say that 1t is about time
for the Chamber of Commerce and Ad
Club to take active part in putting up
a grand reception for the home-com-
ing of the ALA Chinese baseball team.
The Chamber of Commerce are sup
posedfy the claimants to advertise Ha-
wafi, and the Chinese baseball team
has played no little part in this direc-
ton, and they and the people. of Ha-
waii should be proud of it. The ALI
Chinese team succeeded, In part at
least, in putting Hawaii on the map,
but this year they have also painted
il with glaring oolors How many
Americans in the east and middle:
western states knew anything about
Hawaii previous to the Chinese inva-
sion? +"
Their arrival is only a short time

GET LOCAL IMPROVEMENT UNDER EAY,1


One hundred thousand dollars year can be
saved fer the general fund of the city and county
Of Honolulu if the improvement of Honolulu,s
streets and roads are put upon the local-a
ment basis.
This Is the estimate of those who have been
studying the municipal situation in connection
with the new Improvement law
That law was passed by the legislature six
months ago, but the board of supervisors and the
people of this city have not yet given it trial.
A wise attitude to take now is that
work on all streets and roads except the
main arteries ofstraffic should be held up until
such work can he put on the reimbursement
basis. The extremely important work on the
more generally used streets is being done by ap-
preparation from the general fund. Inasmach
as these streets benefit all the people of the city,
all the people should help pay for the improve
naent Such main traffic arteries as Kalakaua
avenue, King street, and the road to Kaimuk
benefit not particular section of the comlnu-
nifty but the wholescity. 1t is fair therefore, to
charge the whole city for their improvement. On
the other hand, it is not fair to charge the whole
city-thaf is, the general fund-with the inn
