sioners are against the issuing Of a
license
He has. knowledge of the Marshall
case right under his nose.
He knows much better 3
When we read in your paper that
he says he must take q trip out there
to see il the place can be properly
managed he adds TO HIS many other
mistakes that of taking US for fools
And he will find out that in this he
is particularly mistaken If he goes so
far as to grant this license,
Very likely the nearcoming Mar
shall trial will furnish the best evil
dence of whether CT not this place
can be run properly Why not wait
until this trial is finished until the
stencil of decaying flesh has left our
nostrils before trying TO force upon
us something which we decidedly do
not want?
We believe the evidence will show
that Marshall was on TIE fatal night
a. least a part thereof asleep in a
room of this place. If this be true,
then should not a clearinghouse IL
cense also be necessary? - -
The racheco proposition to leave
dance-hall licenses to local option"
we think the correct one. Then we
could have run for our money. As
it is now, a public official inserts his
thumbs in the buttonholes of his coat
lapels, tits his cigar little higher,
and debonairely informs US that the
law leaves him no other course"
What bosh! How cheap! What fools
he takes us for!
Accor to, the sheriff's interpre-
tation, india joint can be started any
where in Honolulu-College Hills,
i unahou, Kaimuki, and even adjoin-
ing churches and Sunday school, and
no recourse had.
Boiled right down to hardpan, the
law is nothing more nor less than
public sentiment.
If the sheriff grants license for
this hula joint, he will be absolutely
unable to get from under" by any
such flimsy pretext as this.
BY what process of reasoning does
he set himself up as superior to US,
the residents of the district directly
affected by his action? He is not our
dictator, but our servant 1t is not
for him to tell us that place is all
right, but for us to tell him when 1t
is not all right.
Mr.. Editor, excuse us for being
harsh in this matter, but there's a
reason"
We need the recall in this town,
and we need it now.

before the board of supervisors at it's
meeting tomorrow evening to pre-
sent the recommendations for the i'm

the part they are playing for Hawaii,

WHY LICENSE IT.

The Star-Bulletin would do Sheriff Jarrett nc
injustice in connection with his decision to ap
prove the issuance of a permit to Madame Puahi
Tor her hula resort, but this paper feels emphat
ically that the decision is a mistake in public
policy. IN ... ~
The sheriff interprets the opinion of Deputy
Attorney Weaver to mean that he must issue a
permit for the dance on the basis of theatrical
performance or show. The deputy attorneys
opinion said
The only limitation to the conducting OF a show
py the statute is that indicated the restriction
providing that no license may be given for a show
Of an Immoral characer" This restriction applies
to any show.
II is not presumed that person is going to con-
duct show IN violation ofthe statute There Is am
PIE police power to restrain any participant in an
immoral show. 81 81
That is legal opinion. But it must be ap-
piled to the facts regarding the Puahi hall.
Those facts are that the hula resort has not been
conducted in an orderly manner, that it has not
been conducted in observance of good morals,
that It has not been properly restrained by the
police
Madame Puahi was unable to secure permit
from the supervisors to conduct her place as a
"dance-halL' Thereupon she applied for shers

REV. r.. T. BLACKMoN's WORK
Speaks of His Labors For the Ameri-
can Sunday School union.

Rev r. Thomas Blackmon, one of
the home missionaries of the Amer
lean Sunday School Union, whose
field in South Carolina is the terri
tory lying east of the Broad river
spoke very interestingly of his work
at the Presbyterian church Sunday
morning. He spoke of the dense
ignorance which prevails in certain
sections where he has labored and
deplored the fact that South Carolina
stands so low in the scale of educa-
tion, spending only SO per capita
each year on the education of her
children. He said ignorance was
hard to combat, but that where il
was combined with vice, the problem
was most perpleXing He said that
compulsory education was much
needed but that the grace of God was
also necessary.
He spoke particularly of his work
in Lancaster county and in Kershaw
county, which adjoins us. At Dong
las church he helped to organize n
hourishing Sunday school and at
Crenshaw, in the southeastern part
OF the county. At these and other
points he has established hourishing
inter-denominational Sunday schools.
where it would have been impossible
for any one denomination to do the
work needed without the assistance
of the others.
Mr. Blackmon is an earnest. zeal
Gus Christian whose heart is in his
work. He is a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. Thurlow Blackmon and was born
and reared in Flat Creek township.
Mr.. Blackmon was formerly pastor
OF the Second Baptist church of this
place.

OF A SEVERE STORM

Snowfall in Number of Years.
TRAFFIC is DEMORALIZED.
All Wire Service to Cities of East
Observation-Disclosures Damage
Done to Some Sections.

Plttsburg, Nov. 9.-Crippling
transportation facilities and prostrat-
ing wire communication over a wide
area an extraordinary snow, sleet and
windstorm visited this section TODAY
and continues tonight. During the
day 10 inches of snow fell, four
inches more than in any November
since 1886. The barometer register
ed 29.O6 or about one inch below
normal and this incident of the storm
is viewed as remarkable by local Off

ped from 4S to % degrees in less
than Is hours. Preceded by heavy
rains Friday and Saturday snow be-
gan falling at O'Clock this morn
ing. Before noon railroad, trolley,
and vehicle traffic was battling with
the elements in an effort to continue
operations. Toward evening the
thermometer tumbled rapidly and the
water and snow froze. This com
pletely demoralized transportation.
ALL WIRES ARE DOWN.
Shortly after noon the Western
Union Telegraph Company reported
all wires down to New York, Column
bus and Cleveland. The Postal Com
pany was tied up by the storm to all
points from here. Telephone wires
to the outside world were useless.

circuit to the principal cities east
of Pittsburg and to Chicago and
Louisville. The Postal Company was
still unable to reach New York, Bal
tlmore, We shlngton and Cleveland.
Trains are running hours late.
In this city and vicinity the storm
was especially severe. In the Monon-
gahela Valley leading East from here
the Allegheny County Light Company
tonight reported that over 1000
wires were down
The storm was moving north in the
direction OF Lake Erie tonight. Parts
or West Virginia and Eastern Ohio
are believed to have suffered consid-
cradle damage, but attempts to get
into communication with these points
have been futile.
