for the tastes Of that portion Of the community
which objects To all bllboar,ls
The people Of this city ought 10 recognize
clearly that the billboard business within hounds
Of propriety is a legitimate business. The thing
to do is to keep it within the bounds Of pro,
pricty,-to keep the boards from marring the
city's scenery.
Charles X. Frazier, who handles all the bill
board business of this city, has declared a will
ingness to cooperate with the people Of Honolulu
in putting boards only where they are not a blot
on the scenery Why not take him at his word
secure the assistance of the merchants assO-
cation-the assistance Of the women Of the city,
the improvement clubs,-and in a spirit Of mu-
tual love of a city beautiful agree upon the use
of boards in the business district and on business
streets, and their restriction elsewhere?
The establishment of billboard districts is just
as practicable as the establishment of building
districts. Honolulu has sections within which
only buildings conforming to certain good and
safe standard of construction may be erected. On
the same principle billboards can and should be
handled
1t is notable that the women who have enlist
ed in the anti-bilboard campaign are women of
the utmost intelligence, refinement and natural
qualities Of community leadership. Their strong
moral sense should render abhorrent to them the
utterly wrong, the legally wrong, the morally
wrong methods of the boycott and the blacklist
used already in this campaign That same
strong moral sense should work wonders for the
city if directed along the practical lines men
toned above.

CHINESE OPIUM FIEND
GIVEN SOOTHING SMOKE

Writing in agony for the want of
his accustomed drug, from which he
had been deprived during the two
days since his arrest, All Tim, one of
the two Chinese smuggling suspects
in the Manuel Ferreira case, was re-
moved to the territorial prison this
morning from the United States mar
shal's Office, with instructions to. the
jailer to give him a small amount of
opium to quiet his nerves.
Opium! Give me opium or yen
sheet" the prisoner piteously begged
his keepers He was unable to sit
quietly in his chair, his body twisting
convulsiyely, arms, and hands twitch-
ing and head rolling like one in a ter
rible spasm. -.
Together with his companion, Sing
Lee, he had been taken to the mar
shal's office, where a formal charge
will be filed against both today. Pris-
oners of this character, suddenly cut
off entirely from the opiate to which
they have become slaves, have been
known to go insane. All Tim was
plainly on the verge of a nervous
breakdown, and the officials recogniz-
ed the imperative need of relief. ...@

PETER HARTUNG ENTERS
PLEA OF NOT GUILTY

Declaring he had carried package
off the steamship Columbian at Homo
lulu for a stranger, and did not know
its contents, Peter Hartung a water
tender on the Columbian this morning
entered a plea of not guilty to the
charge of opium smuggling, on which
he was arraigned in the federal court.
Hartung arrived here Yesterday Oh
the Mongolia in the custody of Special
Officer John Millar, who arrested him
at San Diego, Cal, two weeks ago on
the arrival of the Columbian there.
The apprehension was made on in
formation cabled to the coast byeU. S.
Marshal E. r. Hendrv. Hartung was
indicted by the federal grand jury here
two months ago.
His bail was fixed at $1,000; the
date of his trial has not yet been set.

THE GOVERNORS LEGISLATIVE SURVEY

Governor Frear's admirable survey Of the
other indication of the general approval with
which the citizens of Hawaii looked on the actiy-
tiles of their representatives. As the Star-Bul-
letin commented on the day after the close of the
uals the defeat Of whose own priced measures
bulked larger in their minds than the passage Of
a hundred progressive laws. a striking instance
is the peevishness in certain quarters resulting
from the defeat of the Ainahau park bill The
Star Bulletin hoped this bill would pass, but
when it failed, we did not 10y any means feel that
all good in the Legislature had been smOthered.
Governor Frears characterization Of this SEES
sion just closed is an apt one. In political, in
dustrial and social measures the Legislature Of
1913 not only passed number of laws of adj
vanced character, but gave earnest consideration
to and paved the way for the later passage Of
many other measures of still more advanced
character
Looking over the legislature i'm calm retro
spect it is probably well that a number of the
advanced measures did not pass Hawaiis gov
eminent should be fully representative, and sew
eral of these measures had never been put before
the people until rushed into the legislature.
They will be discussed now for two years, will
very likely figure in convention platforms, and
certainly in 1915 or 1917 will pass, for they are
measures of sanity, merit and force.

4 SOLUTION FOR THE BILLBOARD
QUESTION

Editor Honolulu Star-Rulletin,
Sir:-I have been much interested
in the discussions, pro, and con, re-
garding the billboard nuisance"
Being a firm belieyer in absolute
fair play, cannot help; but admire the
manly stand taken by Mr.. Frazier in
defense of his business and livelihood
He proves his. civic spirit by the
generous way in which he acquiesces
in the perfectly proper requests made
of him to remove his signs from places
where they would conflict with the
landscape and parking of the city, and

BILLB0ARDs and COMMUNITY WORK

The billboard question has come before the
people of Honolulu in an acute form, and, aided
instead of hindered by some of the methods of the
anti-billboard campagners, demands attention
not on bitterly hostile but on a sane business
basis
Fair-minded businessmen realize, or ought to
realize, that SO long as business demands bill
boards, so long Honolulu will have billhOards.
City after city, community after community, has
tried to fight the billboard as an institution and,
though the fight has often been carried from
court to court the Star Bulletin does not know
of case where the billboard, simply as a bill
board, has been finally beaten.
Dangerous boards have been beaten, particu-
larry unsightly boards have been eliminated, adj
yertisements of a nauseating or obscene charac-
ter have been. stopped by opposing community
sentiment But when it comes to billboard adj
vertising that is not unsightly, that is not dan
gerous, that is not against ethical standards,
community sentiment is not unit. There are
plenty of progressive and intelligent merchants
who believe thoroughly in some billboard adver-
Using, and there are many of them right here in
this community. These resent the spirit of the
present campaign; rightly they resent the club
that has been used To force some firms and indi-
yiduals into the list of those not using or quit
ting the use of billboards
Under such circumstances. Honolulu will get
nowhere by campaign against the billboard
ont Of the business But others will come in and
knowing the unfairness of the fight as it is now
being waged, they will have little consideration

FIsHMARKET SUGGESTIONS

Complaints are again rising high about the
condition of the fishmarket and the condition of
the scaly wares sold therein by the Oriental mer.
chants.
Manila is ahead of Honolulu in handling its
fish. The new Tondo market is equipped with
large tanks of water and as fast as the fish ar
rive from the they are put into the tanks and
become their own window display. 1t is an at
tractiye idea and the Manila merchants soon
found that their sales so increased that the cost
Of the tanks and their maintenance was easily
Reimbursed.
The Manila board of health recommended the
construction of the tanks and is highly pleased
with the result The board of health of this ter
rit0ry might look into the idea. The fishmarket
question is one that has baffled several success
sive boards as well as several successive regimes

HAWAIIAN APPOINTMENTS

The ripple caused in political and official cir
cles here recently when the Star Bulletin pub
lished the news that President Wilson had begun
appointing Hawaiian postmasters will probably
subside before long.
There will be a number of pOstmasters APP
pointed, undoubtedly, but if the administration
upholds Postmastersgeneral Burlesons stand,
good Republicans will not be removed from of
flee merely to make way for Democrats. More
over this policy is quite likely to extend to sew
eral other federal offices here and present in.
cumbents allowed to serve out their terms un-
disturbed. Speaking merely as an observer of
occurrences and indications, one can easily see
that the administration has not yet shown any
signs of playing politics with the federal patron
age. The three new postmasters named the other
day WILL according to information, take places
where vacancies nomnally exist, that is where
the Republicans are holding on after their terms
have expired.
