MR. ADVERTISERS you
IN should make your advef-
. tisements representative OF
yourself. They should EN-
body your personality, your
reputation and your aims. DO
not say anything in an ad-
yertisement that you would
not say face to face with
customer. Your advertise
ments are a part of your bust
ness, and they should har-
monte with your business
methods. If the goods you
are going to sell are part
cotton don't advertise them
as all wool unless you intend
to misrepresent and are will
ing to look your best Gus
toner in the face and insist
that the goods are all wool.
If you are building your
business on deceptiOn-well,
that is your affair. But If
your word is recognized as
good in your neighborhood
then your advertisements
should sustain your reputa-
ton. and you will lose moth
ing by telling possible Gus
toners in cold type that the
bargain you offer is only
half as good as it looks.
One Of the most successful
advertisers in the country
once advertised an article
that he was selling at an
absurdly low price as being
"aS poor as can be made for
the money" He may not
have sold many of'those arti-
Giles, but any that he did sell
did not make him any enc
mics, and the advertisement
frankly stating that the
cheap article was Of little
value made his declarations
of the high quality Of other
goods sound effective.

reference to the form Of Judgment en-

final Judgment rendered, and leave out
the point of controversy, which was
ruled in our favor by Judge Cooper,

vide for putting plaintiffs into posses

TENDENCIES

Says Golfers Weekly: 1--WE have come long
way without realizing it. There is not much
left of the doctrine that man can do what he
will with his own. A New York man owns a
farm in Virginia; New York woman thinks this
farm ought to be owned by the nation as. pub
lie shrine; the owner has no idea of selling it.
To he sure, the farm is called Monticello and was
The home of Thomas jefferson; yet the present
owners title is the same as that of any other
farm in Virginia, and it came to him as an in
heritance There is no statute anywhere by
which a mans farm can be taken away from him
under these circumstances; but what any OBJ
server can see is that Congressman Levy, the
owner of Monticello looks worried in the midst
of this agitation. Not long ago one of those pub
lie men who is ranked as decidedly among the
more conservative of the Progressives suggested,
as "a remedy for certain economic conditions in
Hawaii, that the sugar mills in those islands be
made public.sevice institutions, subject to the
same regulations with regard to rates and con-
tracts that are applicable to railroads and the
like. 1t is only about fourteen years since the
idea that the state could regulate even railroads
became familiar to the public. Before that time
railroad rates were looked upon as private con-
tracts with which the community had nothing
whatever to do" ..s<~ - f

of gases, which the Carnegie sc1en'
fists will use in their work OF at
tempting to ascertain what is inside
the earth.
Il believe these are the first gases
that have ever been obtained from
volcano" said Professor Shepherd.
Ceases can be obtained from the edge
of the crater, but the gas we were
after was the gas which had not been
burned or mingled with other vapors,
such as water, dust and smoke& 1t IS
impossible to secure samples" from
the volcanoes along the Mediterrane-
an, because they are the explosive
kind, and so we chose the volcano on
Hawaii Our idea in collecting the
specimens was to learn something
more about the formation and chem
fcal construction of the gases of the
inner earth"
In securing the gases Professor
Shepherd was lowered into the crater
by ropes and ventured as close as he
could to the boiling lava in the pit
of the crater.

THE WILSON IDEA

Governor Wilson's declaration yesterday that
Justice will guide him in the distribution of
patronage, and his still more significant action
in refusing to remove the Republican state labor
commissioner of New .Jersey, mark this excel
lege professor as a man of extraordinary cour'
age and resolute conviction. Nothing but the
stiffest of backbones could sustain him in such
an action at this stage Of nationals affairs and
party politics. t..~.s5- 49,
President-elect Wilson's stand ought to be
mighty comforting to the friends of good govern.
ment in Hawaii. This territory has several eff,
cient public servants who should not be ousted
Tor purely partisan reasons. tits all very well
for the Democrats to point out that the destinies
0f the country have been entrusted to them by
the people of these United States, but Wilson
himself, now the titular and acknowledged head
Of the Democratic party, has salre out on record
ID favor of the man who has smade good in or
Ice as the man he wishes to continue in office.
IN Hawaii the Democrats are looking forward
to occupation of most Of the principal federal
and territorial offices. If Wilson sticks to his
text of progressiyism, he will not displace good
Republicans for poor Democrats.

A CORRECTION IN THE SPRECk.
ELS CASE.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir:-Although l am the son of an
editor, the father of an editor and the
brother of two former editors, / have
always tried my cases outside of the
newspapers, and rarely correct mis-
statements concerning them.
Allow me to violate this rule and
correct a misstatement which origi-
mated in the Advertiser, and has been
repeated in your paper and in the Ad-
vertiser again, that l have said that
our clients, Claus "A. and Rudolph
Spreckels and Mrs. Emma Ferris, in
tended to appeal to the supreme court
of the United States. Neither we nor
they are contemplating such an ap-
peal. The only reporter who inter-

with all his loyalty to his race, he has steadily
grown in favor among all classes in Hawaii. His
services as an orator are always in demand, and
indeed, he has given many people here new
idea of the negro and the Negroes ability. Other
wise, when the first possibility of Ousting him
appeared, there would have been a rush to help
do the ousting Instead of that, Hawaii wishes
to sec him remain.
These are some of the reasons why Collector
CottrilI deserves to be kept in office. Such a
course on the part of the Democrats who com
mand national patronage will set an example
far more valuable than any demonstration of
partisan politics.

C0ITRlLL DESERVES RETENTION

: 4 4 &
II Woodrow Wilson carries his declaration Of
yesterday into the handling Of Hawaiian affairs,
one OF the men who by all means deserves reten-
ton ii office is Charles a. Cottrll, collector of
internal revenue Here is,a man who is life
long Republican, WHO has spent years in public
service, but whose record in public office is one
Of fine efficiency and who, moreover, commands
admiration and respect for qualities OF manhood
that have overcome the barriers set up in the
negrois path Of progress
Hawaii is familiar with Cottrill's work since
he came here in March, 1911, to assume his du-
ties as revenue collector Hawaii is familiar,
too, with the circumstances under which he took
office A hard fight had been made against him.
He was opposed on nothing but the fact that he
was q negro His opponents, many of them sin
cere, urged that his color would prevent success
ii office here, that he would be ostraeised, that
his assistants would not work with him. OBJ
stacles were thrown in his why from the start,
until Cottrill himself arrived on the scene and
went about his duties. - -seeesss .s.asss IA
He has been in office two years 1t is not
exaggeration to say that he has secured some
very unusual and flattering results. At the end
Of June 3d. 1912, the first full fiscal year since
he took office, the revenues collected showed an
Increase from about $229,00O to about $780, 900,
approximately 20 per cent. The Hawaiian dis
frict by its good work. stood sixth in the list for
proportionate increase, and more rapidly-grow-
ing communities were left far behind. Last year
the collector had an absolutely clean slate SO far
as delinquencies are concerned. Organization of
his office, hard and intelligent work by himself
ana his assistants, brought this district to the
point where the Washington Star commented on
it as one of the first six offices in the United
States ~. 49,
Figures do not, however, tell all or even half
of the story The larger part of it is in the very
favorable impression that Collector -Cottrill
made from the first and has steadily heightened,
in the respect he is held by the businessmen and
Corporations with whom he has to deal, and in
the fact that even though he is strong party
man and took prominent part in the last Re-
publican campaign as speaker on national is
sues, he is now spoken of by many Influential
Democrats as man they hope to see retained in
office To those familiar with his record, this is
not surprising He has been public servant for
many years, through both Republican and Dem
ocratic national administrations, and has been
kept through the Democratic reg ines only be-
cause of his ability.
Two weeks after his arrival, COttrill bought
his own home here and hencefOrth cOnsidereS
Hawaii as his permanent residence. He is edu-
eating a son here.
Collector CottrilI is strong race man. Yet,
