ton needed on the subject from the experience
simply potter along for two years and then make
a report on what can be reported on now in two
weeks. 1t is an insult to the intelligence of the
brainy men of Hawaii to think they cannot grasp
the principles Of workmen's compensation in a
short time.
Another argument raised is that already the
big business interests voluntarily pay compensa
ton to many sick or disabled workmen and hence
there is no need of such law. This argument we
do not believe can be advanced seriously. If the
business interests are willing to take such action
now, voluntarily, they are willing not only to pay
compensation hut run the added risk of being
defendants in damage suits. Under compensa
ton law, suits for damages cannot be brought
when the employee is receiving or to receive pay
ments through the workings of the law. If the
businessmen of Hawaii are willingto pay fair
compensation Voluntarily, why should they OBJ
ject to paying a fair compensation under the
law? If they recognize that compensation
should be voluntarily paid to injured laborers
here, why should they oppose the law on the
ground that labor conditions here do not war;
rant it? ..3s
An objection raised is that the workmen here
are SO careless that the employer is laid open to
unusual liability. This same argument was
sey and AIichigan,-in states, moreover, where
several occupations involve more danger than
any occupations in Hawaii.
On behalf of the law, there is much to be said
along general lines A specific benefit to Ha-
waii ought to be that such a law. would aid in,
checking the present growing emigration to the
Coast dngthe part of dissatisfied Iaborers. This
phase ought to be given serious consideration by
the territory. S.
The principle of this law has been found valid
by such states as California, Illinois, Kansas,
Massachusetts,, Michigan, New Jersey, Ohio, Wis
consin and Washington, states that stand in
the forefront of progress. We believe that the
time has come for Hawaii to strike boldly out for
the kind of progress that means safety and pro-
lection for the people as we'll as for the employ
ers Surely in a territory boasting of the latest
processes in sugar manufacture, of the greatest
strides in scientific industry of many kinds,
there is room for the development of humanitar-
ian measures that lift up and safeguard the men
and women who dwell therein
Woodrow Wilson's inaugural address con-
tanned these pregnant words: sThe firm basis
of government is justice-not pity" They apply
directly to the principles of the measure under
discussion. 1t is the duty of the legislature to-
pass this measure and to see that it passes with
ont s'jokerss that will emasculate its provisions
and fix a compensation scale so low as to be I'M

The Star Bulletin wishes to indorse the edi-
.toriaf' comment made by the Advertiser this
morning to the effect that one of the men to as
sist in the Hawaii county scandal investigation
should be FL. GoOding Field. Field and Editor
Kinney of the Tribune went to the fore in the
fight for better, cleaner government started by
the board of trade and both would be good men
to serve upon the commission. We hope that re-
ports are not true that Field is to be ''side-
stepped, for if they are true the probe will lose
the benefit of investigation by man trained in
the very kind of work the commission has to do.
And Fields report on Hilo conditions has been
indicated and the community rather believes
he is logical choice for the commissioning if
not, it wants to know.the reason why.

family heard from him was when he
wrote to his mother, his letters al
ways being typewriter or printed.
In 1903, Mrs. Stone came to Chi

though he refused to recognize her as
his sister. She returned to Missouri
and heard nothing from him until she
saw an advertisement seeking claim
ants to the estate.
Mrs Stone said that Lee was born
in Crawford county, H., in 1S49. She
declared she could identify an odd
shaped Bible and tintype which her
brother took with him, and could
bring forward persons to whom she
introduced him as her brother when
she was in Chicago.

JAP NEWSPA PAPER
MADE TO SUSPEND
SUPPRESSION PENALTY is FOR
ANARCHlSTIC COMMENTATORS
HELD IN CHECK.

Toxic, Sept. 10.-Anarchistic ex-
passions in connection with the agl-
tation over the killing of Japanese at
Nanking led to the suppression to-
day of the Kiroku Shimbun, an in
dependent newspaper.
The journal asserted that the pun
ishment of the spies of Yuan Shi Kai,
the Chinese president, had just COM
menced that the murder of Director
Abe of the japanese foreign office
was "a heavenly judgment" and that
other assassinations would follow.
The members of the Japanese cab
met are being constantly protected by
detectives.
The anti-Chinese demonstrations
continued today in the form OF window
smashing and tram car wrecking.
Premier Yamamoto informed the po-
litical deputations which called on
him that the government would not
mobilize, but intended to deal with the
Chinese problem with a firm hand.
1t is reported that Chozo Koike,
counselor to the imperial embassy at
London, will succeed Mortiaro Abe,
as director of the political bureau
Of the Japanese foreign office.
The police arrested the ringieaders
of the mobs which were assembling
to hold another mass meeting here
today and the meeting was not held.
Premier Yamamoto received the or
carriers of yesterdays meetings and
informed them there was no neces-
sity OF sending armed forces to China
at present.
According to another version the
premier declared the sending of
troops to China might bring about
the partition of that country by the
powers.
This city is filled with unsubstan-
tiated rumors that the occupation of
Chinese territory is impending.

The Chinese government has apol
ogized to Japan for the murder OF
several Japanese at Marking, and has
ordered an investigation. The Chi
nese note voiced the desire that a
peacef solution of the affair be
reached through diplomatic channels.

After many centuries Of study Of the
Eisht of the heavenly bodies It has
been found that although they have
varying courses, they are all trendinS
in one general direction. Astrcno-
mers have at last concluded that the
center is located in one of the most
renowned groups of stars in all the
heavens, the famous constellation of
the Pleiades.
Alcyone the central star OF the Pie
iades, and the brightest of the group,
may then be said to be the throne OF
the universe, the great center from
which radlates the influences gov
erning all things This great fact
was first recognized in modern times
BY Prof Maedler of Germany
What depth of meaning, therefore
is conveyed in the words of job, the
ancient, seer and philosopher. who
lived about four thousand years ago
when he asks: "Canst thou bind the
sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose
the bands of Orion?" dob 3S:3lO
Divine inspiration must indeed have
moved the prophet TO express so con-
cisely that which has required more
than forty centuries of study for man
kind to learn.

Mrs. Stone asserted that Lees real
name was Jeremiah Watts. She told
the attorney that her brother mar

later Watts deserted his wife and
son. After waiting year for him to

CHICAGO, Aug A. The artist
thought it was a halr-pulling mara
thon.
It certainly looked that way as he
gazed across the marcelled heads of
sixty lady rooters and at the stunts
on the platform.
Before row of mirrors sat seven
pretty girls Above them lowered an
equal number of frantic women, who
grabbed locks by the clawful and
plunged barbarous combs into the
tangled strands.
1t was not a hair-pulling match.
Those excited ones who seemed to be
collecting material to stuff a mat
tress were artists in their line. Their
line was hair-dressing. A gold medal
was to be awarded to the winner of
the contest-the artist who could
complete the most perfect and mod
ish head dress in the shortest time
The judges did not carry stop
watches and pistols. Nobody yelled,
Soak the umpire!" But excitement
was a-tingle, just the same. The
lady rooters had their favortes
among the contestants, who were
the champions of seven leading
American cities.
They rooted with "ahs" and signs.
They rooted clear down to their hair
roots.
