DEVELOP PARKS, B0UItVARDs AND BEACHES NOV

The public discussion over the acceptance of
.Ainahau' by the Legislature brings for
ward the wisdom of policy of securing and
developing park areas for the future of Honolu-
lu And not only parks are needed "a large pub
lie bathing. beach should be acquired by the city
and held in trust for the Honolulans of the fu-

Mainland cities are spending millions in the
condemnation of valuable property for parks
and boulevarls and are looking back regretfully
to time when the property could have been
much more cheaply acquired
The Right Hon. James Bryce, ambassador to
the United States, once made an address to the
American Civic Association in which he said
'sThe love of nature is the very simplest and
best of those pleasures the power of enjoying
which has been implanted in us 1t is the most
easily accessible of pleasures one which can new

darky said about the watermelon) you cannot

youth to age; We cannot enjoy it in the form of
strenuous exercise with the same fullness I'M age,
because our physical powers are not the same,

Citations and memories of those who have in by
gone days visited beautiful scenes with u.s. and
also the associations with which poetry clothes

in the interest of pure enjoyment I'VE ought more
to desire and study to diffuse than the beauties
OF nature. Fortunately, the love of nature is in
creasing among U.S. 1t is one of the tests of civil
ization that people should enjoy this simple
pleasure instead of those more violent and excit-
ing pleasures which may become the source in
extreme forms, of evil The love of nature say,
is happily increasing among us, and it therefore
becomes all the more important to find means
for safeguarding nature. The population is in,

house to vote the other day against the CONCUR
rent resolution protesting to congress against
the abolition or material reduction of the

mended Mr.. Kinslea for independence enough
to break away from his delegation in a
vote on another matter, but his later action
is quite inexplicable Republican and Democrat
alike approved the resolution. Kinsleas Illus
Itrious chief, President Wilson, has already de-
clared that his ideas on tariff reduction are that
no legitimate industry must be hurt, and the res

MERCHANTS TAKE
UP SUGAR WORK
With COAST

A letter from the Merchants Asso-
Cation, signed by o. A. Bierhach, sec
rotary, has been addressed to the San
francisco Chamber of Commerce. It
contains many of the arguments
evolved for use in the campaign OF
the sugar protection committee. Fol-
lowing is summary of its leading
points: ..--.: -.. 49,.
More than 30 per cent Of our bust
ness activities is based on sugar ,#.
Our total commerce with the main
land now amounts to $19,000.000. OF
which so per cent and more is done

Our purchases in year amount to
S2S, COO coo. of which over S1S,0o0,oo
comes to us from the port OF San
Francisco. Fifty percent of our sugar
shipments passes through the port oil
San Francisco. ~. =
Reference is made to a statement
prepared for transmission with the
letter, showing the merchandise that
the merchants of Hawaii bought from
the merchants of the mainland IN
1912. Every line of trade gets share.
Increase of our business depends
on the tariff on sugar Continued
prosperity for Hawaii means more
business for you. r
Relative to an imputation or wa
tered stock. the letter says that the
capitalizatioA of all sugar properties
in 1911 was s74,2s6.141, while the as
sessed valuation for taxes Of these
properties was $92,4S6,041. The total
assessed value of all real and per
sonal property in the territory was

raid in taxes S1.75S,534. ~-

eran and his baseball characteristics
are more strongly formed.
Given strong running mate for
Leach and Schultz, Evers will turn
out winning team next season, one
which will give them all, from top
to bottom of the list, battle. The
pitching staff has been propped up,
the catchers are up to the mark, and
the infeld contains pleasing array
of talent. Maybe that outfelder is al
ready on the payroll, only needing de-
velopment. Playing it safe, perhaps
he isn't. But such an insect must |
be found.
The ambition of Mike MitcheII's
life has been stified, and, worst of all,
by his former mates on the Cub team. |
Since he went to Pittsburgh Mike has
played several games against the
West Siders. And in these contests
he has been about the softest propo- |
sition in the batting line encountered
by Cheney, HUMPHREYS & Co.
Against the other teams Mike |
yields the baton with deadly effect. |
His average has climbed with steady |
strides and Mitchell is pleased there
at. But it is a cinch he would be will |
ing to sacrifice a few points against |
the other clubs if he could bust the |
shoots of the Cub fingers and break |
up few games to the sorrow of John |
Evers That is the nature of ball |
player, He wants to make the club |
that canned him sorry, and he knows |
no better way to do it than by taking
prominent part in the clubs defeat. |
Despite the terrific strain on his |
arm early in the season, when he was
called on for almost daily duty dur |
ing the cold weather, Larry Cheney |
retained remarkable effectiveness |
through the campaign. Now with the |
race practically run, and'the result
ant let-down in nervous tension,
Cheney is suffering from his spring |

pitches have marred an otherwise
stellar performance on several occa-
sions. An example:
Yesterday against Pittsburgh he
allowed two hits in eight innings.
Three runs scored. Three bases on
balls and two wild pitches were, in
the main, responsible, though cou-
pie of boots by Evers assisted in the
downfall.
If the Cubs are to win the city SER
les Cheney must travel at his best
gait. A streak of wildness and G.
Webb Murphy may as well content
himself with the losers share of the
gate receipts. With the brand of
pitching that will be provided by the
Sox boxmen, low scores are expected,
and a wild pitch at critical time is
likely to work havoc.
There is considerable doubt Wheth-
er Pitcher Koestner of Venice of. the
Pacific Coast League is to become a
Cub. Brooklyn turned over its option
on Koestner to the Cubs, and Muir
ply mailed check to the Dodger
officials to complete the deal Now
President Males of Venice declares
that Koestner is not the property Of
Murphy. The matter may have to go
to the national commission.
