SAFETY ON The STREET.CaR

Reports Of two accidents on the King street
line last evening draw attention to the fact that
at several points on this line the poles are set
too close to the tracks for safety. 1t is common
occurrence to see the running board of the King
street cars so crowded that men and boys have
to press close in to avoid striking the poles. The
King street traffic has become so heavy that in
order to accommodate the passengers with the
present Acknowledgements system the con-
ductCrs must crowd their cars to the limit 1t
docs not suffice to say that the conductors should
not Overcrowd their cars. This argument is in
the same class with that of the railway president
who shifts responsibility for terrible accident
to an engineer who disobeyed speed regulations
what at the same time the running schedule of
the system makes violation of the regulations
necessary. The conductor must often Overcrowt.
his car to handel the rush-hour traffic
Either the posts must be moved further from
the tracks or the running boards kept free, and
the latter alternative means that more cars must
somehow be put in operation.

IS PUBLIC OPINION Selfish?

Judge Humphreys, in a rather bitter inter
view yesterday on the Inter-Island controversy,
said that public opinion is always selfish. 1t
wants it's mails sent, its persons and freight
transported, and it. does not care whether it is
served by slaves men, so long as it is served"
AS to public opinion being always selfish, it
is sufficient to point to the Inter Island troubles
a few months ago. At that time it is safe to say,
public opinion sided with the striking masters
and mates though it did not agree with all of the
methods they took to enforce their demands. The
present situation is quite different, and the pub
lie has not felt that the personal grievances Of
the men, while serious to the individuals in
volved, were enough to outweigh the public dis
aster of inter-islaud transportation stopped,
mails and freight tied UP. Nor has it felt that
the danger to small minority of losing their
jobs justified the tie-up of a great public bust
ness
K And why should not the public demand that
the public business 60 on, no matter what the
differences between employers and men? The
laws that prevent the captains from quitting
their vessels in such way as to obstruct COM
MERGE, the laws that guarantee delivery of the
United States mails, the laws that protect the
rights of the common carrier, are all based on
the principle of the greater good to the greater
number. Disregard of such a principle means
chaos, disaster. The public has the right to in
sist that it's mails be sent. it's persons and
freights transported. If public service corpor-
alton cannot give adequate service, it must get
out of the business.

NO INTOLERANCE WANTED

The Inter-Island strike situation is changing
SO rapidly that comment written now may be in
appIicable i'm an hour hence. Yesterday morning
it looked as if the masters and mates would not
walk out to any considerable number Their
meeting yesterday afternoon at o'clock was
followed by the designations of many, some of
whom were slated for quick dismissal. The COM
pany insists that it can continue giving service
throughout the islands. 1t is quite apparent
that the company intends to get rid of those mas
ters and mates who, in it's opinion, were active
in fomenting not only the present trouble, but
the situation that tied up the entire fleet some
months ago And in this connection it may be
remarked that the same public sentiment which
refused to uphold the harbor's demand for g
voice in the dismissal of employees by the COM
pany, will now refuse to uphold the company If
it becomes obvious that the lnter-lsland is vent

Not Three Generals
No official confirmation of the news
that General Funston, IS to assume
command of the new and Independent
Hawaii Department has reached here
yet, but the Washington dispatch
which carried the information bears
ali the marks of probability. That
Major General Wood is to come here
in addition to Funston, is however,
rot seriously believed, and the rumor
that General Macomb was also to
serve here, making the third general
officer, is laughed at by army men
who give the statement a second
thought 1t is pointed out that as there
are not enough Major Generals avail
atle to command six new geographical
departments, and to serve as chief o.
staff, it Isl not to be supposed that both
the ranking major general and the
lanking brigadier general of the army.
would be sent to Hawaii. AS to still
another brigaiier for Oahu, the pro
posed brigade organizations in the
states will require more than the
aTailable number of general officers
now in the service. If Oahu gets two
general officers. it is all that can pos
sibly be expected without an increase
in the higher grades, say army officers

INCOME TAX AMENDMENT WINNING

Dispatches yesterday telling Of three states
that acted simultaneously indGrsing the federal
income tax amendment, emphasize the remark
able rapidity with which this amendment be-
came effective ThreefouTths OF the states, or
36, had to ratify the amendment to make it valid
The income tax measure was approved by Con-
gress in 1909 and sent to the states. Less than
four years have elapsed, yet New Mexico is the
thirty-sxth state to approve the plan.
As soon as the thirty sixth state ratified the
amendment it became operative and Congress
IS given the power to lay and collect taxes on in
comes, frGm whatever source derived and with
out superintendent among the states or regard
for any census. i. Eg,.3e
According to the latest available records, only
four states have rejected the income tax, Con
necticut New Hampshire, Rhode Island and
Utah Their action was taken not long after the
amendment went before the states. On the other
hand, every state that has taken the tax up for
considefaticn since aheut the middle of 1911 is
reported TO have ratified it. s-r4
The fight against the income tax has been
waged by the protected interests onesof the ar.
.guments for the tax has been that it would pro
vide Uncle Sam with such source of large rev
enue that high tariff would no longer be neces-
sary from the standpoint of furnishing money to
operate the government The new source of rev.
enue, moreover, is declared by economists to be
based ON sound reasoning The burden of taxa
ton will be distributed according to means; as
the United States grows in industrial prosper
ify, the tax returns will increase, affording gov
eminent an opportunity to keep pace with inter
nal development, The cost of hourishing indus
try will not fall upon the consumer, but upon
the man who profits.
The tax, of course, will be an experiment and
no one will venture to predict with absolute GER
tainty what will happen.
