SERVICE
APPOINTMENTS ]
ARE QUESTIONED 5
Attorney General Tells Mayor
His Action Is Contrary to
the Organic Act

Attorney General Thayer takes
issue with Deputy City and County
Attorney Milverton concerning the
legality of the appointment of Sen
ator A. ]. Wirtz and Representative
d. M. Kupihea as members of the
Honolulu fire and police civil service
commission.
In an opinion submitted to Mayor
Fern responsive to the latter's request
for Information on the subject the
attorney general asserts that the ap-
pointment of member Of the 1913
legislature of the commission would
be not only contrary to the meaning
of the Organic Act but ill-advised as
matter of public policy
The question hinges on the point
as to whether this civil service COM
mission Is a strictly municipal body,
not to be construed as q territorial
organization, or is. actually terri
torial board. This is brought up by
the clause in Section 16 of the Or
ganic Act which says:
THAT no member of the legislature
shall, during the term for which he
is elected, be appointed or elected to
any office of the Territory of Ha-
wnii."
In his opinion, sent to Mayor Fern
today, the attorney general says that
while provisions somewhat similar to
this one in the Organic Act have been
found in many of the state constitu-
tions on ~ mainland he has been
unable to dir~over any case precisely
the same as that with which the ma
yor is confronted in the present in
stance
In gennrn' Sa states he has found

ous state corrtitutions have been har-

SAVING MACHINE
REACHES Town
Friends of Unfortunate Youth
Secure PuImoter as Monu-
ment to His Memory

Contained in a package the size
of an ordinary suit case, and weigh
ing but forty-two pounds, apparatus
was received in this city yesterday
that is destined to save many lives
when brought into action at critical
moment.
The Dragon Pulmotor. now recog-
niZed as a means of bringing back
the spark of life to those who have
met with drowning. electrical shock
or accident of similar nature Is now
to become a fixed institution in Ho-
nolulu.
A practical demonstration was CIV
en- yesterday afternoon at the Inter
island Steam Navigation ship chand-
lery. where one of the first imple-
ments of this kind was placed on ex-
hibition, and it's operation inspected
by hundreds OF interested visitors.
A similar machine, which arrived
yesterday, will be installed at the
Moana hotel This machine was pur-
chased by a number of friends of
young Sinclair who was drowned
while bathing at Waikiki some
months ago.
The pulmotor, now on exhibition at
the Interisland chandlery, is won
derful piece of mechanism. 1t sup
plies pure oxygen with the regularity
of pair of lungs in normal opera
ton. The gas is supplied from a small
tank, holding sufficient to keep the
machine in motion for nearly one
hour.
"A steady contraction and expansion
of small rubber reservoir marks the
movement of the air, that is to be
sent into the lungs of the patient for
resuscitation.
II is claimed that this machine is
capable of bringing back to life those
persons who may have been rescued
from drowning and have remained APP
parently dead for an hour.
One machine is to be kept in con-
stant readiness at the Moana. Sew
eral employees at this hostelry will
be made familiar with its operation.
Members of the Outrigger Club will
also be asked 10 familiarize them
selves with the life saver.
1t is the intention of the purchas-
ers of the machine to dedicate it for
use at the beach as a Sinclair memor-
ial and a central location is to be Sc
Iected for its installation.

BREWERY SALE
IN Orient IS
FELT LOCALLY
Honolulu Stockholders Lose
While B0ndholderS Reap
Harvest Through the
Transaction

Through the recent sale of the ORR
entail Brewing Company, located in
Hongkong, to a group of Manila cap
italists for $250,000, it is intiHfated
that local bond holders have profited
heavily by the transaction.
1t was learned this morning from a
local banker, who, while not being in
terested in the Hongkong corporation,
is possessed of the facts regarding
the inner workings of the concern,
that more than half dozen Honolulu
business men and capitalists were
hondholders in the concern, and that
their profits were large through the
sale On the other hand, it was also
stated that the stockholders lost con-
siderably. The brewing plant has a
capacity for 300 barrels OF beer per
day and more than 100 tons of ice.
The brewing machinery will be re-
moved and installed at Manila. while
the ice plant will continue to do busi-
hess at Hongkong The work of
tearing down the brewery and ship
ping the plant TO Manila has already
begun. In the island CITY the new
buildings will be erected on a site
comprising some 1000 square meters
on the river front at Nagtanan, which
land was purchased by the Manila
capitalists some time ago.
The site which has been selected
at Nagtanjan is but few hundred
yards above the San Miguel brewery
on the banks Of the Pasig. The plant
retained at Hongkong will continue to
manufacture ice for public consump-
ton.

clan in Havana, Cuba DR.. Finley fur
nished the mosquitoes to the army sur
geons and they, under the direction
of DR.. Reed, established beyond q
doubt that the only way that yellow
fever can be carried is by this par
ticular kind of mosquito. ] do not
want to take any credit away from
DR. Reed He accomplished a wonder
ful work in proving the yellow fever
mosquito, but 1t must be remembered
that he did not discover the mosquito
in the first instance.
THE morning paper, In its editorial,
also stated that DIR. Reed died from
the effects of yellow fever contracted
during his experiments. This is not
true. DIR. Jesse W. Lazear, an army
surgeon, did give his life I'm the course
of these experiments, but DIR. Reed did
not contract the disease and died a
year later from an entirely different
cause.
IN correcting the statements oil tho

any credit from the men who did the

forward the work have done lions

NEW ELECTRIC PUMPS
WILL BE INSTALLED

The two enormous electric pumps
ordered last year as an addition to
Honolulu's water system, arrived this
week and the work of Installing them
began yesterday. Superintendent
Caldwell of the public works depart
ment says they have a capacity of
LoO1,000 gallons day each One is
to be installed at the wilder avenue
pumping station and the other will
be set up temporarily at the Kaimuki
station.
The latter will remain at Kaimuki
until the department is financially
able to purchase another pump of
probably 5,000,oJ0 gallons capacity,
such as is needed for the Kaimuki
station, and on its arrival the two
pumps here now will be set up to-
gether permanently over the two
wells at Wilder avenue. The new one
at this point is to supply the new

tation that was done before the Pana.
ma canal could be built. without men
tioning the name of Col. w. &. Gorgas
chief sanitary officer in the canal zone
since 1904. is like giving the play ol
Hamlet" without including Hamlet
among. the characters" said DIR. John
w. Ross of the United States navy, re-
tired, when commenting this morning
upon an editorial appearing last Thurs
day in the morning paper.
DIR. Ross, who is known the world
over as yellow fever expert and
who was one Of the distinguished pio-
neers in lighting the mosquito in Cuba
as well as Panama, explained that the
morning paper, in reviewing the visit
to Panama of DIR. Roswell Park OF New
York, had given all the credit for san
itation in the canal zone to Colonel
Goethals, the army engineer officer
who has had charge of the building of
the big ditch.
Colonel Goethals deserves great
credit for his engineering and execu-
tive ability shown in the building OF
the canal" he said. But II must be
remembered. in order to give credit
where credit is due. thar Colonel Cor
gas. is the man who. from the first.
has had charge OF the sanitation OF
the zone. Colonel Gorgas, in fact,
Vent TO Panama as sanitary officer be-
fore Colonel Goethals was appointed
engineering officer. When Goethals
arrived I'm Panama, Gorgas had al
ready freed the place of mosquitoes
and he has since that time had charge
Of the great work in sanitation that
has been accomplished.
Colonel Goethals is due credit for
the actual building OF the canal, but
credit must be given to Colonel Cor
gas for having made the building of
the canal possible. II was the yellow
fever which defeated the French in
the endeavor to dig canal, and
Colonel Gorgas, together with the men
associated with him IN the great work.
