spite of her beauty the affections of Lycus
turned from mother to daughter. He put
Antiope aside and married Dircc. the
cruelty with which Lycus and especially
Dirce treated Antiope is one of the great
scandals of Greek mythology.
Antiope, who could not stand the hu-
initiation, Ned to the mountains. There
she had two sons by Jupiter-Amphion
and Zethus Apollo. the God of the Sun,
being attracted to Amphion. gave him
Tyre, and he thenceforth practiced song
and music, while his brother spent his
time in hunting and in tending hocks.
When they grew up the brothers learned
of the wrong that Lycus and Dirce
had done their mother Antiope' and they
decided to punish the guilty pair. SO
they marched against Thebes.' 1t doesn I
seem to be clear whether they had army
behind them or whether they took the city
double-handed, so to speak. 1t must be
remembered that they were the sons OF
Jupiter, and. if that all-powerful god was
on their side, they were prepared to over
come any difficulty.
At any rate. all the authorities agree
that Amphion and Zethus did capture
Thebes. They put Lycus to death prompt
ly; but Amphion thought that Dirce did
not deserve a sudden, painless death. He
tied her to a bull. who dragged her about
until Sne perlSneO- iniS tcifioic PuhiSH-
ment for a daughters ingratitude made a
powerful appeal to the ancient artists and

moment of the death Of Dirce. 1t is an
epic in marble on the punishment de-
served by an ungrateful child.
After the death Of Dirce, Amphion is
credited with the most remarkable feat
Of music and engineering ever recorded.
He and his brother decided to fortify
Thebes, inasmuch as they concluded to
rule it themselves. The narratives seem
to agree that all he had to do was to
walk around the city. play his Tyre. and

will also have to be cut out.
All cxtraVagance and waste will
have to be cut out.
More economical methods, and
more labor saving devices will have
to be used, and the waste products
will have to be attended to.
In regard to the cut in wages, the
Japanese have known that this must
come for long time past, and no
doubt are wondering why it has not
been done.
The managers and others must also
know that such high wages as they
have been getting cannot be paid
them as they have been getting dur
ing flush times.
Indeed it is a question with many
of them whether they are to get
lower wages or nothing at all, and
the same is true of many of the men.
This may be unfortunate but it
must be done.
Indeed the low price of sugar calls
for this reduction to say nothing of
the cut in the tariff which is a
foregone conclusion and must be
.reckoied with.

CARRYING ON TIE FIGHT

Hawaii's three-year campaign against free
sugar, which will be made necessary if the Will
SON Underwood bill passes congress, should be
conducted on the basis of an appeal to reason
going as directly as possible from the people of
Hawaii to the people of the mainland,
Hawaii emerged from the ''lobby probe" with
colors flying and honor untarnished because the
men who represented Hawaii we're able to show
that they bore credentials from the people, that
their campaign was personal fight, that every
person in Hawaii has personal interest in the
prosperity of sugar, that the letters that went
from here were bona-fide.
Hawaii did not play On manufactured inter
est or on Fictitious sentiment Hawaii went
into the fight with entire sincerity. And we
have the facts to back every argument against
free sugar, or a disastrous slash in the duty.
A reading of the testimony taken before the
Overman committee shows Enthusiastically that
Hawaiis strongest argument is in the fact that
the sugar industry here affects every man, wo-
man or child in this territory, that it does not
mean the fortunes of few, but the livelihood
Of all.
And Hawaii's strongest argument to the coun-
try, to the people who will determine the action
Of congress two years from now and four years
from now, will be just this argument. The cam
paign material should go to the mainland direct
u from the people of this territory, or from
mainlanders yitally interested in the welfare of
this territory.

frank admission that Hardesty has been consid
ering getting Smiddy's job are the things that
make Hardesty's expected resignation smell 40
unsavory They emphasize the manner in which
the city road department is being used as the
football of petty partisan politics, a point on
which the Star Bulletin has a good deal more to
say and proposes to say it very soon.
The thing that smells worst of all is that Har
desty is apparently using the office to which he
was elected as lever to get himself fat posi-
ton in the city service Lest there be any doubt
about this remember what Hardesty said in an
interview with this paper yesterday.
He admitted freely that some time ago he
asked the mayor to promise him the appointment
of superintendent of Kapiolani park, a position
which carries $50 month salary. This, it is
stated, the mayor refused to do. He also freely
admits that he has been fighting Road Supervi
sor Smiddy, and that while he hasn't been prom
Used Smiddy's job, he is willing to take it. He
also admits that he will be glad to get out of his
office as supervisor.
1t looks very much as if Hardesty is merely
staying in his elective office until he can pry a
fat salary loose from the city treasury. 1t looks
very much as if his influence as supervisor is
largely devoted to lining up good job, and,that
when this is done, his resignation will be forth
coming
This is the kind Of politics that smells, and
the apparent consent of certain other members
of the board in the Hardesty program is offens-
i've to plenty of Democratic as well as Republic

POLITICS THAT SMELLS

There is a distinctly unsayOIy smell to the
proposed Democratic deal exposed yesterday, by
which Supervisor S. G. Hardesty may resign
from the office to which he was elected to take
more remunerative job in the city's employ.
Mr.. Hardesty has been dissatisfied superyi
sor almost ever since he was elected. Several
explanations have been given for his state of
mind, the most likely of which is that he has
found that being city official interferes with
his profits as a contractor. This situation was
brought forcibly to his mind some months ago
when the Star Bulletin ventilated the story of a
city job that he took in violation ofsthe law. The
engineer very properly refused to approve his
bin, under authority of the act which prohibits
public official directly or indirectly being in
terested in public work. Since that time Har
desty has intimated frequently that he consid-
cred resignipg. There is no doubt that the law
is serious embarrassment to him, for he is shut
out from participating in all other public work
This however, is not the fault of the law nor the
fault of the office TO which he was elected 1t is
q wise provision that keeps public officials from
lingering public work. The people do not want
supervisors in office who will parcel out work
among themselves, pass on the work themselves
ana approve lHe WdrTdHtS W pay lleHSehcS
There is a good deal of sympathy for Hardes-
ty, because people know that he went into office
exceedingly ignorant of its demands and its re-
strictions. His private business undoubtedly
has suffered, but in the kind of language that he
will naturally appreciate, he "hasn't a kick com
ing He should have thought of these things
before going on the stump in the last campaign
and telling the voters what a good and efficient
supervisor he was going to be. Honolulu is pass
ing out of that municipal stage where public of
flee can be held by men who overlook the small
but important points of their sworn obligation
to the people, and Hardesty happens to be one
of the men whose personal interests are dam
aged by the changing order. Yet the order will
continue to change until the city government
reaches a higher plane of efficiency and of thor
oughly honest service to the people. We do not
for moment challenge the honest intention, SO
far as the handling of the citys finances goes, of
any member of the present board BY honest
service we mean honesty in administering the
affairs of the city without an eye to personal
gain of any SORT to selfish profits of any sort,
whether financial or political.

1t is the consensus of opinion of
plantation men who know this busi-

must be done If this industry is to
be saved from utter ruin.
In the first place cut must be
made in the wages of every man on
the plantations from the managers

folly to pay high wages when the in

/, SAN FRANCISCO-When Admiral
Dewey comes to San Francisco next
October for the Portola Festival he
will be attended throughout his stay
by a guard of honor, composed of
men who have served under him at
various stages of his long career. The
formation of this guard has already
been taken up by commission OF
Spanish War Veterans, according to
announcement made today by the Por-
tola Festival committee.
Night and day Admiral Dewey will
be attended by men wearing uniform

close four days later, he will not be
unattended for a single minute, ac-
cording to the plans of the veterans.
At night his door will be guarded, and
