Firth Day

What promises to provoke not a
-fttti6 trouble IN me Solemn halls of
the upper house of the legislature
came to the front this morning just
before the senate adjourned until 2
O'Clock, after a session that did not
last quite three quarters of an hour.
Senator ManeKau of Hawaii intro
duced senate bill No. 40, an act
granting a franchise to manufacture
Illuminating and fuel gas, to John T..
Baker of 10, or his assigns, or a
corporation formed by him or his CO.
partners.
The measure permits the granting
of franchise to Baker for fifty years,
allows him to erect a plant, install
pipes and mains, put in ..eIers and to
.lx rates as he or his company may
see fit. II does place a limit of three
dollars and twenty-five cents per 1000
cubic feet, above which sum the cor
poration may not go, and it gives the
board OF supervisors the right 70 con-
troll the regulations under which the
company may perform its services to
the, public. 1t exempts all the COM
pany property from taxation for ten
years from the date of commence
ment of building Another clause
which provides that June l of each
year the corporation shall pay over

Hawaii TROOPS
Will N D I Go
TO MEXICO

II the United States interyeHes in
Maxico, there Is no chance of the Ha-
waiian garrisons being called to the
front. This is the opinion of high
ranking army officers here. who are
in a position to, know whereof they
speak. Hawaii is of such tremendous
Importance to the defense or the
western coast in the event of war
with an Oriental power. that now that
a still Inadequate force has been sent
here, it will not be withdrawn. Incl
dentally the impression prevails in
local circles that Intervention is in
eritahle and that it will mean nothing
less than a war with Mexico which
may drag on for years.
1t has been figured out by tactical
experts of the general staff in Wash
ington that including the large force
necessary to keep the lines OF COM
munication open, it will take an army
of 100000 men to invade Mexico and
not only strike an effective blow, but
follow up success. This means that
a decision for armed Intervention
would have to be Immediately fol
lowed BY call for volunteers. as it
was decided by the attorney general
Of the United States at the time of
the last Mexican scare that the organ
ized militia could not be ordered be-
yond the borders of the. United States.

help of the teachers and parents, as
to just what occupation each pupil
was desirous of following. In order
to do this, he said, it would be neces-
sary to appoint vocational guild
ance commissioner in each county,
which commissioner would visit the
schools in the territory assigned him
and then report lack to the commits
sion which would be located in Ho-
nolulu.
Edgar Wood spoke of the necessity
of making a canvass of all positions
open to boys and girls, what the quail
ifications were for such positions and
what possible remuneration would
be- When these positions were as
certained. it would then be necessary
to train those boys who intended TO
follow along the lines of these profess
sions He also spoke of the need of
making an investigation into the
homes of the parents of these pupils
and find out the conditions there;
whether or not it was necessary to
take boy out of school at the age Of
sixteen years and put him out to work
to help replenish the family Golfers.
The matter of the establishment of
vocational high schools on the differ
ent islands was brought up, and Com
missioner Aiken suggested that in
case this plan was not deemed adyis-
able, the establishment of travelling
schools, would fill the requirement.
Vaughan MacCaughey also spoke at
length of the immediate need of the
establishment of vocational training
schools Many interesting facts were
brought out with regard to the sue
cess the plan is meeting on the main
land In Cincinnati the boy works at

Facing Dearth of Labor in Far

Hawaii is facing another bitter war
against labor raiders.
Planning another series of efforts

Francisco to Hawaii and load the yes-

big Alaska Packers Association,
backed by its millions Of dollars, are
again on the still hunt for labor, and
just as happened In 1911, they have
turned to Hawaii as "A source Of
supply. 60 -
News has been received here with.
10 the past few days, and confirmed
by further information arriving this
morning, that the Yucatan, chartered
on behalf of the packers from the
Alaska Steamship Company, is now
being outfitted for an expedition sim.

tor In 1911. The Senator sailed in
the spring of 1911 on secret mission
for Hawaii Some days before her
arrival, Il was definitely ascertained
that she had been chartered by labor
contractors in the employ of the
weeks before the Senator arrived
here agents had been going about
among the plantations and in and
around Honoiuiu, signing up Filipinos,
Portuguese, Spanish, Hawaiian and
ether laborers for a seasons work
at the Alaskan canneries around Bris-
tol bay. The glowing promises held
out By the agents induced q large

come to town. where they we're colo

May Revive Sitter Fight.
The bitter fis-- between the Hawai-.
ian planters and the agents stirred
the entire territory. In the end the
agents got away with few hundred
men. many of whom deserted when
the Senator reached San Francisco
and never went to the cannefies. The
territorial legislature, then in session,
rushed through laws making it ille-
gal for unlicensed agents to solicit
labor to leave the territory and put
ting otiier stringent restrictions on
their activities. Some of the agents,
white and otherwise, were promptly
arrested and the power Of the courts
invoked The cases dragged from
court to court and even now one of
the cases against Frank Craig. the
chief agent OF the raiders, has been
postponed from month TO month in
the police court pending the disposi-
ton OF sort of test case in the up
per courts.
Since the Senator left and the
agents departed vowing vengeance
on the planters for blocking their
deep-laid plans, little has been heard
of the labor raiders. Within the past
few weeks the Alaska canneries, it
appears. have been calling fors more
men. The canning season opens
