Mr.. McDuffie, chief of detectives, DOS.

lady" living in or near the ''tenderloin
district" being outrageously and
'shamefully assaulted before the very
eyes of her husband. Now, what /
want to get at is this: how is it that
this editor knows more about what is
going on than the chief of detectives
and his whole staff of detectives under
him knows. 1t seems pity to me
that the good people of the city OF
Honolulu don't get this editor a Job

perhaps, he could even up matters

matters would be evened up one way

Now, speaking in defense of the

where we have been or may go, we
have always endeavored to make
friends and to lead such lives as to
prove ourselves good and honorable
citizens and soldiers, and fully conf

defending the great country as we do:
and worthy the esteem and admira

The only trouble we ever have is with
the people that amount to least. They
are the ones that are continually
nagging US and endeavoring to pick
flaws and find faults. Don't under
stand me to say that we are an or

men, for there Is no man living under

Der of men anywhere in civil life, pur-
suing what walks of life they may,

CITY PLANNING

City planning a subject now beginning to b.
discussed in the right tone in Honolulu, is al
accepted fact in several progressive American
municipalities. A few days ago mention wa,

Robinson, well-known here, to the professorshi.
of civic design at the University of Illinois Thu
Outlook, commenting upon this and upon thu
appointment of another great builder Walter
Buriey Griffin, to design Canberra, the new
Australian capital, says:

courses in it constitute part of the programs

have been delivered by instructors in the depart

had an outside lecturer on the subject Cornell
and the University of Wisconsin have recognized
It IN their work respectively, OF landscape arch.

know, Illinois is the first university to make civ

intervals, his arrangement with it. leaving him,

TIE C0LLtGIAR's ENGLISH

In recent article in the Harvard Alumni
Bulletin, M. r. Castle, Jr., member of the Har
L ward faculty, puts his finger on an admittedly
weak spot in collegiate work English compost
tion. Professor Castle has been making an in
vestigation OF some OF the causes Of this recog
nized weakness, preliminary to more extended
and thorough study, and his paper in the Alum
nj Bulletin sketches briefly some Of his early re
suits. He says: -
MY purpose Is to discover, II possible. whether
students apply In their other the principles of
composition learned In their English courses wheth-
er certain lines Of study better fitted than 9TH
ers TO develop powers of expression; whether re-
sponsibity for the sloyenly speech and writing Of
the average American student lies primarily with
the school with the colleges and finally what the
remedy may be- slz5ss Vi fs4 sS4s 81 N ! T. {
.That college writing Is poor Tar Interior in form
to corresponding work in the English universities,
there be doubt in the mind Of anyone who has
had much to do with American college work and who
has had an opportunity of comparison. The reasons
for this many. Our boys do not read as good
books as the English boys read Our newspapers are
not as well written as are the English newspapers
~ These causes general and cannot be remedied
through any academic Investigation of the subject
But We be able in schools and colleges at least
partly to overcome their influence Do we for ex-
ample insist the truth that no fact can be made
important to the world unless Is clearly stated
that the world must understand? Do sufficiently
relate our composition courses to all other courses,
insisting that composition is an end in itself but
only means toward end? Do make clear
that translation means the changing of idornatic
French or Latin into equally idomatie English"
There is much to agree with in the above. One
point may fairly be questioned. Professor Cas-
tie compares writing in American and English
newspapers to the detriment of the former. Now
it is fact that in niceties Of certain style, in
freedom from colloquialisms and slang, English
newspapers are ahead of their American col
leagues On the other hand, so great Brit
ish publicist as Lord NorthcIiffe ON his recent
tour of America praised American newspaper
writing for its vigor, brevity, clarity of express
sion and pithy phrasing, frankly admitting that
British writer's are prone to dull ponderosty.
Alfred KeneaIy, of the Mirror, voiced the same
thought in slightly different language. There
ae papers like the New York Evening Post aud
Chicago Tribune, the New York Sun, that will
compare favorably in stylistic qualities with the
British daiIies

REPUBLICAN PARTY REORGANIZATION

l An authoritative statement as to the future n
the Republican party is the leading article j,
the last number of the Saturday Evening Post
a statement OF exceeding significance Its au
thor is Senator Albert B. Cummins.
There is movement on foot for the reorgau
lzatlon of the Republican party 1t has a sur
! foundation. The writer is confident it will sue
coed; and having been part of it from the he
ginning, he has had assigned to him the agree
able duty of putting down in plain understand
able words, what it is and what it seeks to &C
complish."
Thus Senator Cummins begins his article. il
the course of which he discusses the Republican
national convention of 1912, the causes for thu
Progressive split, and the possibilities for the
reunion of the great mass of Republicans.
These possibilities are set forth so strongly
by Senator Cummins that he carries inevitable
conviction. He believes, and gives plenty of rea
sons for believing, that the nine million normal
Republican votes were split over issues that have
not permanently affected the underlying unity
of party affiliation. He sets forth two matters
of party rule that must be reformed, as follows
First, the misrepresentation given to certain
states in which the party is not strong enough to
be a factor in either state or national affairs.
This applies particularly to the Southern states;
which, under the present party rules, WELD an
undue influence because they have large rep
resentation for comparatively small party
vote. j. ~. 49,. - & - ~...a
Second, the authority Of the national commit
tee to determine who shall sitsin the convention
Senator Cummins, discussing the needed
changes, declares that the national committees
power must be curtailed, so that it may not un-
der any circumstances so mould party affairs
as to deny full representation to any element in
the party. >Sz5 Il E=@$z = s.. =. /.
OF interest to Hawaii is the announcement in
Senator Cunmins's article that there will be a!
meeting Of the national committee on December
l6, probably in Washington, and that party
leaders are planning'a special Republican ma
tional convention. As the Star Bulletin men,
TONED some weeks ago, the Republican stateI
convention in New York favored both of these
moves toward party reorganization. I
! Senator CUMMINGS article is traightforward,l
fncere, full of constructive thought It height |
ms the fast growing belief among voters of Ha-
vail that the progressive men in American poli-l
les will find the Republican party responsive toll
heir needs It's rehabilitation will take time;
is purging will take determination and honesty Il
is reorganization will take energy and thought. /
But it is quite evident that Republican leaders,
ire alive to the issues Of the hour. -
