had gone into the examination of the
proposed franchise to find out whether
il was for the benefit of the commu-
nifty. S. ~
Attorney C. R. Hemenwsy, answer
ing the questioner and T. VI. Church,
said it was presumed the company
would come under the public utilities
commission Some omissions had
been discovered in the bill which had
been rectified in the senate.
D. H. Lewis said the general policy
of the association should be a liberal
one. If this franchise was not for the
general good of the community 1t
ought to be discouraged, but if other
wise it should be encouraged.
Mr.. McInerny asked if the Hawaiian
Electric Company came under the
public utilities commission.
President Swain answered that it
did not in the matter of rates. If any
consumer was dissatisfied he could
have recourse to the courts, a provi-
sion which would debar a poor man
from getting justice.

fHAfER DEMANDS
PUNISHMENT FOR
ALLEGED BRUTE

Protesting to Sheriff Jarret. that
she was unable, in the Hilo district
court, to secure an indictment against
the brute who had assaulted her
little fiye-year-old daughter. Span
ish woman appeared in Honolulu yes
terday with written statements of the
child and of the child's brother at
testing to the rayishnent. The fiend
alleged to have committed the assault
is Marcelo Queros, Filipino police
officer of Hilo. The charge against
the man is all the more revolving in
that he is alleged to have communi-
Gated to the child 1oathsome dis
ease.
When Queros appeared before Judge
Wise of the district court in Hilo, it
is stated that, because of the fact that
the little girl he is alleged to have
favished became hysterical and re-
fused TO speak, Judge Wise dismissed
the defendant without further ado. II
is reported that the citizens of Hilo
are enraged at the lack of action TAX
en- in the matter and it is believed
that letters asking that steps be tax
en- against Quero have been received
by several people prominent in Ho-
nolulu.
Taking the matter up without de-
lay, Attorney General w. W. Thayer
had forwarded the following letter to
Charles F. Parsons, circuit court judge
of Hilo. *..~ -.
Sheriff Jarrett called to see me
this morning, bringing with him
Spanish woman from Hilo, who makes
a very serious complaint against a
Filipino police officer in Hilo named
Queros. 1t appears that Queros was
given a preliminary hearing on a
charge of criminal assault upon the
young child, Elsa, of the woman, and
that John Wise discharged the defend
ant The woman complained to Mr..
Jarrett that she had been unable to
get justice in Hilo and hence she
came to Honolulu to see what she
could do. She has reduced her story
to writing and has also had a state
ment made by the girl Elsa and by at
least one of the family.
The case is such a serious one
that it seems to me that it would be
highly advisable to have the matter
to the grand jury and, IL,
after an examination of the state
ments / am herewith inclosing. you
feel justified in calling the grand
jury's attention to it, I will ask Mr.
Breckons to present the case and
handle if for this department"

SUGAR men Use PUBLICITY To
AID BATTLE FOR PROTECTION

SUGAR MEN s@s. K
Asking the aid and support of the
public to prevent the threatened re-
duction in the sugar tariff, the Domes-
tic Sugar Producers, the bureau now
campaigning in Washington, is using
publicity on big scale, to secure the
desired results.
Local sugar men have received
from Washington some of the bulle-
tins that are now being published as
big display advertisements in Wash
ington papers. Below are two.
The Hawaiian representative are
the leaders in this plan, which is re-
gaFded as sure to make a good i'm
preston on congress. Below are two
of the bulletins which have been adj
vertised extensively:
Domestic Sugar Bulletin No 3
THEY SAY that "The refining inter-
est is the most important factor
connected with sugar manufacture
ing in the United States. There
fore, the industrial position of re-
filming requires primary considera-
ton"
THE FACTS ARE that the refineries
of the United States do not produce
a pound of Sugar They buy raw
sugar already SO per cent pure and
sell it again after taking out about
four per cent of impurities. This
operation adds no actual wealth to
the nation. Domestic beet granu-
lated sugar is produced without the
assistance of these refineries. If

The members Of the house should
not be misled by any such plausible,
specious, and altogether unsound argu-
ment. 1t is all very well to drag
small children before jury, but to
sensible men who are looking to the
future as well as to the present, who
appreciate the merits of the Hawaiian
ALI and desire to erect to their
memory something more than con-
ventional monument of brass or stone,
these attempts to move the Jury to
tears" will not be needed. As point
ed out, this land came to Mr.. Cleg-
horn from one who deserves we'll from
us, and, had Kaiulani survived, would
have gone to her in whose memory 1t
is desired to preserve it, as SO monu-
ment more enduring than bronze" a
manument unique, whose fame will
reach round the world and bring
countless hundreds to Hawaii, to the
good of those hundreds, for many
years to come In this way, will it
not do vastly more good than il par
celled out among the testator's de-
scendants?
And what would the place amount
to if thus parcelled out? 1t is not a
readily-saleable place, as it stands,
nor is it so very valuable Knocked
down" It is a place that can only
endure as public park. No one who
could afford to buy it would want it
for residence; for such purposes
Judge Humphreys has completely es-
tablished its "miasmatic," mosquito
infested state and knocked" it for
ever Divided, cut up, il would be
like lutte without strings.
Fortunately the gift of prophecy has
been denied to all but a few of us,
and we cannot say that the devise is to
do more moral good, "the greater good
to the greater number" If the plans
OF the donor, given the benefit of his
closest thought for years, are carried
out, or If the plans of the donor are
defeated in the interests of particular
persons. We are not prepared to say
that the good of the heirs is more to
be desired than the good of the count

tons who are to be directly benefited

teen who are sure to be indirectly
benefited, perhaps supported, by the
employment which the maintenance
of this park will give-and such en-
ployment should, and would naturally,
go to more needy members of the Ha-
waiian race, whose ALI are by this
gift held in honored remembrance.
Mr.. Cleghorn, as understand, felt
that he held Ainahau in a sort of
trust, to preserve it for the memory of
Kaiulani, and indirectly also of Like
like. His wishes should be respected.
And the descendants who will be in
cidentally cut out of share of the
material benefits which would other
wise come to them. may feel more
than satisfaction, more than pride, in
the thought that they have really con-
tributed each one his share to that

ments are the most noblel which will

word foreyer) and not only here but
everywhere.

that that city viii not be- in position

probable that meters may be pur-
