material of war, we have plenty

Thus we should let the MeXicans
settle their own fight. We might pos
sibly blockade the ports of Mexico
so as to cut off Huerta's supplies. We
should aid Carranza just as Cortez
aided one side in an Aztec war; but
we, should do it, not in the name of
conquest, but of peace. When Car
rama had finally defeated Huerta, as
he could with our financial and ma
terial assistance, we should be in
position to say to whomsover the
Carranzistas placed in the presir
dency, Nov, friend, let us talk over
with you, as friends, the matter of
constitutional government, fair cleo
tons in Mexico, and those educa-
tional and land reforms which Car
rama has stated as essential to con-
tinued peace in Mexico"
All these things are well within
Wilson's choice. Why should he be
supposed to be even thinking of that
clumsy and destructive thing, inter
vention? Wilson is generally sup
posed to be very long-headed and as

WHAT Mn SHE MEAN9
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-11-29

They have said that there will be
no armed intervention In Mexico; and
the Paris paper and Europeans in
general will do well. to believe them.
Wilson has so acted that most Amer
leans have left Mexico, and those re-
naming have decided to take their
chances there, no matter what hap
pens. The government is now strip
ped for action-but the action will
not be Intervention.
Huerta will probably continue to
defy the United States. The wages
of Mexican president are very good
and Lord Cowdray is said to be
sending money for Huerta's pur-
poses. Doubtless Huerta's purposes
comprise a fat bank account some
where on the continent against the
inevitable rainy day. Such is the way
of dictators. ......
Huerta's defiances and insults will
not move Washington to revenge or
punitive measures. Intervention
would make Huerta national hero
instead of an assassin-usurper. 1t
would prolong the period during
which he could make those deposits
abroad of Cowdray's money. He is
stormy petrol, and the storm can
not blow too wildly for him, so long
as it does not engulf him. He may
even declare war on the United
States as a means of prolonging the
fruitful period of management of
Mexican taxes, duties and loans.
But even should he declare war,
there is no reason to expect that Viii
son will send a single soldier into
Mexican territory. Wilson will be apt
to show him a trick worth two of
that. He will doubtless refuse to
recognize Huerta's authority to de-
clare war. A bandit cannot declare
war so as to bind the Mexican peo-
pie. We should merely laugh at Huer-
ia, and still regard the people of Mex

STREETS
CAMPAIGN I 0
BE STARTED

A new order of things in the street
department is about to commence
With the signing of the law yesting
the control of the streets of Honolulu
in the supervisors, in place of the
board of public works, a campaign for
better streets has been started, and
hereafter public utility company de-
string to tear up the streets to set
mains or wires may find itself bound
down by tighter rules.
Heretofore, with the street control
vested in the board of public works
and partially delegated by it to the
supervisors, companies have been per-
mitted to tear up the streets, and
leave without carefully repairing
them.
Now that the supervisors have been
given complete control, according to
Road Superintendent J. J. Smiddy,
there will be stricter rules enforced
when utility company cuts up a
street, and the ordinances which have
been carelessly enforced will be put
to use to the end that the streets
may be kept in better condition.

will be taken.
The basis upon which these claims
will be liquidated will be one of the
first things determined by the COM

filed with the territorial board of

their total is considerably more than
the amount allotted the commission.

ATTORNEY WOULD
HAVE HAUSMAN
RELEASED

That Samuel ID. Hausman, the aged
Seattle real estate man found guilty
Wednesday on a charge of handling
opium, and now confined in Oahu
prison, may be released this afternoon
is said to be the effect of a motion
filed this morning in the United States
district court by George A. Davis, at
torney for the prisoner. In the mo-
ton, upon which action will be taken
by Judge Dole at o'clock this after
noon, Davis asks the release OF his
client on the ground that the jury's
verdict in finding Hausman guilty is
invalid and that Hausman in conse-
quence is being deprived of his lib
erty without due process of law.
Davis points out, with numerous ci-
tations to strengthen his contention,
that the jury filed a general verdict,
finding Hausman guilty as charged in
the Indictment. of buying, selling, re-
ceiying and concealing opium where
as Judge Dole, in his instructions to
the jury, eliminated all of these
charges save that of the concealment
of opium In other words, the Judge
instructed the jury to find Hausman
guilty or not guilty on a specified
charge, while the jury returned YER
dict on blanket or general charge.
Davis contends that the entire trial
is therefore void and that Hausmah
should be released at once.
Hausman was consigned to Oahu
] Tison yesterday after declaring him
self unable to pay a fire Of $500 and
court costs imposed by Judge Dole.
Unless Davis plea is granted this aft
ernoon the septuagenarfan will remain
in prison for at least month. at the
end Of which time he viii be permitted
10 take the poor mans oath.
