the payment of a number of bills yes

$500 remains in the repair and main
tenance fund, which was originally In
tended to cover all such expenditure
until June 80, 1913. Bills for improves
ments amounting to $10,453.83 were
approved and ordered paid yesterday.
! Because two members were absent
the proposed new rules for Honolulu
harbor were again held up and action
cannot be taken on them until the
next meeting. They were discussed
in some detail. James Wakefield and
Col. C. J., Mccarthy were unable to

MAUI JAPANESE TO-

ton tour of Maui for the purpose to
make himself familiar with the jap
a.ese conditions there. 1t was his in
tention to leave for the Valley Island

yet undecided as to his departure to-
morrow.
Consul-General Etaki has already
nGde a trip to Hawaii. Everywhere
he visited he was cordially welcomed
BY his fellow countrymen and his tour

announcement to the effect that a
similar trip to Maui would be made
in the near future.
According to the word received
from Wailuku, today by the Nippu jill,
the Japanese residents of Maui are

In his report to the directors, James
D. Dole, president and manager, said
in part: =!
Our pack for the year amounted
to 45S,S69 cases, figuring gallon cans,
twelve per case, as in the past. Inas-
much as we have now adopted the
plan Of shipping six gallon cans per
case, we shall probably compute our
pack in future on this basis, as is now
done by most of the packers. As
showing the effect upon our apparent
volume of business, it Is to be noted
that IL We had used this basis during
the past year, our pack would have
totalled 5a6.9S1 cases. This was a
total of 1881 IA cans. 80 80
While it is still too early to make
an intelligent estimate OF the 1913
pack, we anticipate a slight increase
over the past year. -
Market conditions have been ex-

being replaced by new structures
with concrete floors, steel frame and
asbestos iron roofing. 44is!3.tt =

A VOTE ON MEXICAN CRISIS.

Not content with simply voicing its
own opinions, the New York World has
endcavored TO collect and present to
its readers the sentiments of United
States Senators with reference 20 our
Mexican problem. The World asked
three questions:
First Do you favor our interven-
ton?
Second Do you favor lifting the
embargo on the sale Of arms to the
eonstitutionalistsl
Third. Should the United States. be.
fore taking action, await the results of
the next election in MexicoY
Twenty-seven Senators answered the
questions. or the number, twenty.six
expressed themselves as opposed 10
armed intervention. Only one man. Sen.
ator Stone Of Missouri, expressed the
contrary view. Eighteen Senators ia
vored lifting the embargo on the sale
of arms, while nine opposed IL
Twentyfour answered the third aues.

can customs. The object Of the block
ade, OF course, is to confront the Mex
leans with ruin and thus compel them
to adjust their internal affairs.
Granting that the Huerta admins
tration Is eliminated, the American
Government can then direct its alton
tion toward inducing someone accept
able TO both factions to assume the
provisional presidency under the pro-
lection Of the United States. 1t was
suggested in the dispatches yesterday
that Francisco de la Barra might make
satisfactory provisional president. 1t
was amusing to read at the same time
that President Huerta had ordered de
la Barra. who is now Mexico's ropre-
sentative TO France, to proceed to the
Orient on the mission which Felix Diaz
abandoned to become candidate
against Huerta.
President Wilson probably will re-
quire that a general election be held
and n new Congress and President
elected. 1t Will be impressed upon all
foreign nations that nothing will in
duce the United States TO acquire ter
ritory as a result of intervention.

The Pittsburg district of Pennsyl.
vania is the largest consumer of coal
in the world. In population Pittsburg
ranks fifth among the cities of the
United States, but in smokiness it
stands first and foremost. That is why
its coal consumption is the largest of
any in the country, In 1912 that
district consumed 17,721,7s3 tons of
coal and about five million tons of
coke, or 10 per cent more than all the
boroughs of Greater New York. Be
sides all this Pittsburg consumes mil
lions Of cubic feet of gas. Pittsburg
believes that industry and smokiness
are Synonymous, and that where smoke
IS there is business, Therefore the
Pennsylvania city congratulates itself
on its manufacturing plants and over
looks the smoke.

WHAT NEXT?

All who follow the intensely in
ierestng negotiations between Presi-
dent Wilson and Dictator Victoriano
Huerta are wondering what the United
States can do if Huerta keeps up his
policy Of defiance. In view of Presi-
dent Wilson s desire to use only peace
ful measures, he may be relied on to
continue the negotiations AZ long as
there is any hope that pacific measures
VIII attain the results he hopes for
The situation is perhaps more threaten
ing now than it has been at any time
since Huerta seized control of the gov
ernment. Not only the Dictator him
self, but Carranza. leader of the Con
stltutionalists, shows an inclination TO
lord it over this country and to dictate
terms TO President Wilson.

moves the President will make in the

CONSERVATION CONGRESS,

TIE National Conservation Congress
which opens in Washington tomorrow
should be of much value TO the West.
II will be more national in its char
acter than any of its predecessors, as
delegates will attend from all parts OF
the country. The representation from
the West will be large and undoubtedly
will be given an opportunity to outline
their views completely.
Through the National Conservation
Congress and similar conferences the
West will be able to conduct cam
paign of education that is essential II
the East is clearly to understand the
problems of conservation.
Throughout the East Pinchot was
accepted as the unerring prophet OF
new day. Whenever protests were
made by western people who managed
to make themselves heard east Of the
Mississippi river, the adherents of Pin
chot Immediately arose to sound alarm
bells and build balefires Of warning on
all the bare hills OF New England. The
East had squandered its heritage, and,
repenting of its folly, was determined
that the young West should not be
spendthrift. The Pinchotists shouted
warning that western men who de-
clnred in favor Of developing the Vests
resources were actuated by self-in-
terest and backed by sinister wealth.
1t is this ghost which the men of the
Weet must lay if they are to expect
reasonable legislation and administra"
tration at Washington, and while the
process may be slow, yet a campaign
Of education is the surest and the safest
method Of spreading the truth among
the whole people.
Western people are not in favor Of
squandering the national resources, but
they demand that these resources shall
not be locked up in such way as to
prevent settlement and development Of
the nation Is richest regions. They be-
lieye in the conservation Of men as
we'll as in the conservation of resources
They believe that too much sympathy
can be wasted on the unborn genera
tions and toe little care taken of the
present generation

In considering the effect of these re-
Senators have sources of information,
and information which is denied to
ordinary citizens. They know whnt is
going on, not simply what has been
given TO the newspapers by the state
department OF found out by the papers
independently of official sources. So
the Senators conclusions are inn
portant and convincing, that there
should not be armed intervention and
that we should not delay.
There was substantial unanimity
also shown that it is our duty to grant
belligerent rights to the struggling con-
stitutionalists, and in this connection
it is not amiss to add that these con-
stitutionalists are endeavoring to apply
in Mexico the very principles of gov
ernment for which the American nation
stands, and which naturally the Amcrl-
can administration is endcavoring to
compel in Mexico.
The World IS poll seems to indicate
the probability that President Wilson S
next step will be the recognition OF
the belligerency of the constitutional
lists. Such action on the part Of the
American administration might result
quickly in the downfall of the Huerta
administration, a conclusion that Pres
ident Wilson has been endeavoring to
accomplish without interference to the
e1tent of allowing the expectation Of
arms to Mexico from the United
STATES
