Socks HIS OWN LIFE.

Williston, N. OAK, Dec. 1O-Cleve
Culbertson, an inmate Of the
county Jail, charged with murder Of
the Dillon family, hopes to cheat jus
tice by taking his own life.
Yesterday grinding sound was re-
ported to Deputy Rutledge, in charge
of the sheriff's Office. A careful search
brought to light a teaspoon that had
been hidden in his bedding. The spoon
handle was partly ground to an edge
and a few hours more would have
made it into knife or dagger.
The cell was searched for other
possible instruments of destruction
and q guard placed just outside.
Culbertson is said to, have told an
other prisoner that they would not
have TO try him as he would hang him
self.
The case will be made first on the

We now have fOrty-eight lawmaking bodies,
and it is not to be wondered at that some one of
those lawmaking bodies should now and then get
the federal government into trouble. But it IS
our system, and foreigners should learn and I'M
derstand the conditions of our polity. This is
sometimes forgotten by those states that are uni
tary in their system. The United States has
been called sthe spoiled child of diplomacy" by

unique and extensive display the world has ever
seen. Her closest and greatest commercial
neighbour Japan, has entered into it with spirit

the greatest additions to that exposition of any
nation on earth. si
However, the japanese have ready and easy
remedy in the matter The supreme court of the
United States has original jurisdiction in mat
tiers of ambassadors and treaties. If the great
state of California should sully itself by passing
a bill of the nature indicated by the dispatches,
the japanese can appeal to the supreme court

OVERHAUL THE WATER DEPARTMENT

Nothing could more clearly illustrate the need
of general overhauling of the territorial water
department than sthe public hearing last night
Oh the Hawafian Electric Company's contract
for water from Nnuanu.
The emphatic complaints of Nuuanu resi-
dents who have suffered and are suffering a
shortage of water; the inadequacy of the depart
ment's supervision of the system; the lack of
safeguards in the contract with the electric COM
pany; the apparent inability of the water super
intendent to grasp the significance of the situa-
ton; AL these point powerfully to the need for
reform in this branch of government.
While the point of the legality of the contract
was raised last night, this was not the principal
point. Mr.. E. Faxon Bishop hit the nail on the
head when he said that the Hawaiian Electric
Company has been given a special privilege
which endangers the right of individual consum-
ers residents of the valley, to the enjoyment of
enough water for domestic purposes The other
nail that was hit on the head is that the contract
in spite of all that has been said for it. does not
provide what Nuuanu residents consider are
safeguards for their own protection. 1t has
been claimed that as the contract puts the Ha
der the general rules and regulations of the de-
partment, the department will see that the com
pany does not take water through the four-inch
pipe when there is a shortage in the valley. Now
this may be true theory, but the facts are that
the Nuuanu residents have no confidence in the
department and are not willing to trust to its
discretion or efficiency. r.. !
The senate committee has done about all it
can do in furnishing the publicity for the inves-
tigation. The waterworks, if al! goes well, will
soon be in the hands of the Honolulu city Off
Gals instead of the territory. Meantime, the
complainants have recourse by ap appeal to the
courts ~" .~ 49,.
And when the waterworks are turned over to-
the city, the overhauling SO patiently necessary
should be~begun at once and vigorously.

Honolulu, April II, 1913.
Sir:--I beg to call the attention of
the board of supervisors through
your valuable paper. on the condition
of the upper Manoa road from the.
end of the carline up. That road
was never repaired in proper shape
tor pedestrians to travel on, especial
ly in rainy weather. Waters runningl
through July Paka's land floods the
road to such a condition that makes
it impossible to walk over. with shoefe
on and the mud is about six incheAl
deep. It's shame to see roads In
such bad shape, and people have to
walk on fences in order to cross it..
Why don't the supervisors see to
such things instead of having people
kicking before starting in.
