TRIBUTE PAID TO GOOD DEEDS
OF MISS MARTHA A. CHAMBERLAIN

Friends all over tie territory mourn
the death of Miss Martha A. Cham
berlain, which occurred ut her home
op Young street last night The fol-
lowing tribute, penned by 4 lifelong
friend, speaks Of the regard in which
she was held by those who knew her:
The death OF Miss Martha A. j.
Chamberlain has removed another Of
the old kamaainas!
Miss Chamberlain was the laugh
ter of Mr. Levi chamberlain and was
born in Honolulu June "a, 1888, and
lived to reach the good old aga Of four
score FEARS. Her life was one of ae-
tiyity and usefulness until the past
few years when enfccbled health con-
fined her to her home With mental
yigor, warm synpathies and untiring
energy her life was filled with good
works until compelled by physical
weakness to rest from active labor.
"Her interest in religious and cdG-
cational work and in all that pertains
to the advancement Of righteousness
was unfailing; and her kindly and af-
fectionate interest in the welfare of
others surrounded. her with large
circle of friends. Not only to her
many relatives but to nearly all Of
those who knew her she was known

parchment by the board of supervisors and con-
yiction of malfeasance or misfeasance, and an
official may be highly and generally undesirable
and yet safe from impeachment proceedings be
cause of political or other reasons.
Honolulu's lack of clean-cut police methods is
the cause for frequent and caustic criticism on
the part of visitors who are accustomed to even
average police administration in the cities from
which they come. The ridiculous failure of the
police to handle situations that arise here is the
cause of real humiliation to Honelulans. And
yet the fault is not primarily due to the police
officers and subordinates in the department
The fault is in lack of organization, lack of ex-
ecutive direction and obvious lack of knowledge,
on the part Of the head of the department as to
what constitutes good force, clean-cut force
and an intelligent force.
The sheriff is asking for the employment of
an Inspector and instructor to teach the mem
bers of the force The request should be grant
ed, for the force is now ill-taught, and an i'll
taught policeman is inefficient and laundering.
How many policemen on the streets are able to
answer intelligently the questions of tourists?
How many take the trouble to answer fully and
courteously? How many policemen know first
aid methods for injured or drowning people?
How many can handle themselves deftly and eff
fectly when called on to subdne quarrelsome dis
turbers of the peace? How many know the stat
utes and city ordinances governing their duties?
Yet these are things that well-taught police
men should know and be able to do Years ago,
under different executive, the police depart
ment was srnartly keptup and administered with
some degree Of discipline and military effieien-
cy It has retrogressed, not progressed, in most
directions.
The present police department is the inevi-
table outcome of extreme partisanship inscity af-
fairs The head of the police department should
not be elected. He should owe his position to
ability and merit-not to his reputation as a
E.good fellow The. civil service commission
will take logical step if it will cap its sugges
tions for improvement in the police department
with the Recommendation that the head of the
department as well as the subordinates be taken
out of politics.

A WEAK COUNTY SYSTEM

Yen can't build an administrative systeIa en-
firely proof against graft until you can change
human nature; but You can build system that
will detect and check such childishly ingenious
grafting as has been going on in the county of
Hawaii. The ease and CELEBRITY with which the
Hawaii investigating commission has run to
earth the stuffing of payrolls and the embezzle.
ment Of county moneys are evidences that most
Of the grating should have been found out and
stopped long ago. Take the case of Supervisor
Purdy, for instance. He stuffed payroll Sc
cure from detection by the county authorities
Tor the good reason that no systematic scrutiny
Was made by the ''higher-upsn Here is loose
ness that can be remedied. 1t is matter of es-
Publishing a better system of audits
IL may be argued that the shigherups' could
have stood in with the petty grafters and thus
made useless the most expert and automatic sys-
tenn Of checks and balances. The answer to this
Is that big ring of grafters is always, other
things being equal easier to ferret out and break
up than little ring, and public attention, al
ways centered on the high officials, will soon be
directed to circumstances pointing to financial
Irregularities The responsibility for the grimly
