HE'S GOING TO DO THE FLOGGING

He's going to do the flogging,
If no other can be found
Among his fellow-creatures
To whirl the whip around, =.
To swing it and to~bfing it - =
Down, like lightning flash, = .
Till the red blood flows in streamlets
Meath the biting of the lash!
Yes, he's going to do the flogging
With lusty might and main,
Till the victims writhing, shrieking.
With the frenzy of the pain,
Till his eyeballs CLEAN with horror,
Till the lolling, hanging head
Shows further Zest is useless:
To pain, at last, he's dead!
Oh! he's going to do the flogging,
The man of God and right;
His Lordship! whilst the angels
Weep mutely at the sight,
And Christ, aside in pity,
His head doth sadly turn,
And the lash that flogs the sinner
The Saviour's heart doth burn!
God help us when our Ministers
Forget the Saviour's words,
When their hearts vibrate no longer
To PHYS gentle chords,
When they desecrate the Office
That but Holy men should fill,
And call it retribution
When they flog and MAIN and kill!

THE INTERPRETER CHARGES.

Honolulu, Hawaii
Jan. ~, 1913.
Editor Honolulu Bulletin,
Sir:-As ] am a subscriber to your
paper, had occasion TO read what
was printed therein last evening in
reference to the Spanish case before
Judge Monsarrat yesterday in which
my name was ruthlessly dragged as
having brought influence to bear upon
certain Spanish witnesses so that they
would refuse to testify in court with
out me acting as the Interpreter.
beg to state emphatically that
there is no truth in the charge what
soever, for in the first place | am not
at present seeking the position of in
terpreter in the district court, and in
the second place l have too much re-
spect for law and justice to endeavor
in any way to delay the functions of
any court by influencing Witnesses

GETTING FEDERAL AID FOR HAWAIIAN FARMERS

The Lever agricultural bill, Of which editO-
rial mention was made yesterday, passed the
house in such form that Hawaii does not get the
benefit of the federal aid for farmers. This in
formation was given the Star-Bulletin today.
The present status of the bill gives the terri
tory but small hope of taking advantage of the
plan to furnish farming experts for agricultural
comm uEities There is still one chance left, how
ever. The bill has not yet passed the senate,
and vigorous fight ON behalf of Hawaii might
result in a senate amendment to include the ter
ritOry in the measure. If Hawaii were included,
something like 1900 would. be spent each year
in direct, personal aid to the farmers here. The
boon to small farming, to demonstrating, would
be measureless.
The Star. Bulletin is informed that the house
would have included Hawaii in the beneficiary
provisions Of the bill had concerted effort been
made by representatives and friends of the ter
ritory The effort was not made 1t is need
less now to complain of that. The thing to do,
if Hawaii wishes this highly advantageous fed
eralt aid, is to get someone before the senate
committee on agriculture and forestry and VOICE
a request that the bill be made applicable to this
territory There is little doubt that if this we're
successful, the house in conference would agree
to the change. -
A quick move or none must be made. The
bodies of other communities have
come to the front On behalf of the bill. 1t is
worth some speedy thinkingover here.

LITTLE INTERVIEWS

A. A. EBERSOLE-They are all

MAYOR FERN-It is a great cam
paign. l believe that every citizen of
Honolulu ought to join the Associa-

bacon. The Blue team took the lead
at the start and kept it throughout
the morning.

same kind of magnificent "get-togetn-
CT spirit in the Floral Parade that we
have today in the Y. NJ. c. A. mem
bership campaign.

those in charge of the big Y. M. c. A.
campaign came to the conclusion that

members inatead of pol.

are complaining a good deal that
ditch is being used for watering cat
tie and the sources of their own drink

proved a rousing success: we have
raised the number to S01 and feel con-
fident that We will secure that many

that someone would get my name

Cares, George Kearns", Richard A.

going away on tour of inspection for
the board of immigration and I'd like
to have that matter" fixed up during
my stay. - Lrr"i.. e.. y
w. H. HOOGS-It IS a great mis-
take for the supervisors to cut out the
donation to the promotion committee.
Even If not strictly legal, it is sup
ported by public opinion and has be-
come settled precedent. The city
will get many times the amount of the
uOudLlOu DdCk III tuCTSdScu IcNSIluC
due to promotion work
p GEORGE H. PARIS-For goodness
sake, put a spike in that proposition
to- have the Kings Daughters home
changed to the Allen place. There
may be other places than Kaimuki just
as good, but the Allen location is Ut
terly unsuitable. 1t is not fair to the
people who subscribed the money to
change the site now. If Mrs. Hopper
we're home, l. don't believe she would
consent to it.
OLD INHABITANT - 1t was inter-
esting to read this morning all about
the illumination of the lpalace by "a
local gas plant" in the reign of Kala-
kaua. NY recollection is that kero-
sene was the illuminant until the in
stallation of a special electric light
plant in the palace grounds in 1885.
Old newspaper files tell about a gas
company here long before then. but
nothing was heard of it in the eight
les. Several large residences and bus
mess establishments had acetylene gas
light about that time. The streets
were lighted by electricity for some
time before the inauguration of the
private electric light and power COM
pany. The Bulletin was the first es-
Enlistment to employ electric power.
