CLEANUP DAY

Cleanup Day" is upon us again. So long as
Honolulu cannot manage to organize free-gar-
bage collection system, these annual cleanup
spasms are almost necessary. This year, how
ever, the citizens should make it clear from the
start that while they may collect the garbage and
rubbish from yards and vacant lots, the city must
remove it from the streets. The citizens should
not be called upon to do all Of this special work
and continue paying for the regular garbage SER
vice also.

President Wilson has waded through one de-
partmental scandal that threatened to be serious
by ordering immediate prosecution of two de
layed cases in the California courts and by sim
.ultaneously generating Attorney general Me-
Reynolds of all blame for the highly suspicious
delays. 1t is hard to follow the presidents log
lie, particularly as he accepted District Attorney
AcNabs resignation, but the dispatches that
have so far reached Hawaii have been brief and
the attorney general may have made an entirely
satisfactory explanation.

The action of the Democratic caucus in low
ering the exemption figure in the income tax bill
is rather significant. The original bill exempt.
ed from the tax all incomes under $1,000. The
bill as amended will exempt only incomes under
$4,000 Evidently the Democrats are beginning
to worry lest their tariff-slashing program will
cripple the finances of the country.

MORE NOVEMBER 18TH.

Interest in the appearance of Maud
Powell at the high school on the we
ming of November 18th, is not confined
to musical circles. Everyone in this
country knows Maud Powell as the
most distinguished of American musi-
clans and takes pride in the fact that
the only woman violinist who ranks
among the foremost of the world 3
great artists, is an American
Maud Powell is acknowledged as
the greatest instrumentalist America
has given to the world and she has
given proof of her supremacy in every
nook and corner of the globe.
The program which Madam Powell
will present in this city is sure to
appeal to everyone who has a love
for music. The secret of Madam Pow
ellis popularity is that she strives to
reach the hearts of her hearers, and
not to surprise or dazzle them with
her technical proficiency.

GOV 7 WANTS TO
INSTALL SEWERS
GOVERNMENT ASKS PERMISSION
TO OPEN STREETS AND LAY
SEWERS FROM FEDERAL LOT.

The first intimation that there
might be something doing in the way
OF beginning work on the federal
building here in the near future came
about yesterday afternoon when AS
sistant Postmaster Louis Boyd ap-
peared before the council and asked
permission to cut the streets and
sidewalks and connect with the sew
er and also that the water mains
be run to the curbs along the lot
The board OF city commissioners
granted permission as requested and
the work of putting down the lateral
sewer will begin at once. The ap-
preparation for the building was
made over two years ago, and Con-
gresham Carter stated recently that
in his opinion nothing would be
done toward the erection of the
building before next sumemr or fall;
just why the government is asking
permission at this time to connect
the sewers is not known.

MEETING OF
CITY COUNCIL
POSTPONED MEETING HELD YES
TERDAY AFTERNOON. CITIZENS
COMMITTEE ASKS HEARING.

Yesterday afternoon the deferred reg
ular meeting OF the city commissioners
was held at the council chambers and
aside from the regular routine, the
citizens committee representing the
Ringing right-ofway interests ap-
peared before the council and asked
that an ordinance be drafted giving
the railroad owners the right to cross
certain streets and alleys of the city
and to maintain crossings. The com.
mittee asked for the right to traverse
Sixth avenue, S. w, but as that was
a privilege the council has no right
under the law to grant it was sug.
gested that they amend their ordi-
nance and ask that the street be clos
ed and revert back to the abutting
property which was done, and the
committee will draft a suitable ordi-
nance and report back to the city
commissioners in a special meet ng
as soon as they can get everything
prepared
The regular monthly bills against
the city were audited and ordered
paid.
Commissioner Fraley was absent be-
ing confined to his home by severe
attack of la grippe.
The resignation of Commissioner
Bridgman could not be acted upon
from the fact that after he presented
it there was no quorum present, and
he is still on the city pay roll.
1t is believed that if sufficient press.
ure is brought to bear upon the COM
he will rescind his action
and withdraw his resignation. With
this in view the mayor and the 9th,
er commissioners are working hard
to retain the services of Mr.. Bridg-
man as he has been in office a long
time and is thoroughly conversant
with every duty attached to his posi-.
ton which would take a new man, no
matter how competent, some time to
learn.
However, Commissioner Bridgman
is still on the job, and the mayor and
the rest of the commissioners are 60
ing to do their best to keep him
there.

SUGGESTION FOR
LAW { D. LEAGUE
MAKE MOTTO 1.-THE GREATEST OF
THESE is CHARITY" ACCORDING
TO PLAN OF MRS. CURTIS.

Now that the work of the Law and
Order League will be rather light in
the future as all differences seem to
have been settled and the dove Of
peace once more hoyers over Ard.
more, Mrs Curtis, county lrobation Of
ficer comes through with a good sug
gestion that is worthy the considera,
ton of every member of the league
In an interview this morning she
stated that the city was full of chill
dren who were unable to attend
srhool as their parents were unable
to buy necessary clothing for them,
and that every day she was called up
on by some worthy person for assist
ance. The county commissioners have
issued an order forbidding her from
contracting any more bills in her de.
partment, and she says if it was not
for Sheriff Garrett, Chief of Police
Booker, Assistant Chief Tucker and
the city and county officers generally,
there would be many poor creature
actually suffering this winter.
Yesterday Chief Cooker and Tuck
er personally paid the expenses of
a woman and her child to Fort Worth,
who had been abandoned here, by
worthless husband, and Mrs. Curtis
stated that she was an object of pity
in the strictest sense of the word
What Mrs. Curtis suggests is this,
that every member of the Law and
Order League who pledges one dollar
per month for its maintenance, pay
that amount to her, and she can use
it where it would do some real good.
She says that whenever a case comes
up now, the sheriff and the police Of
ticers of the city are called upon,
and they personally solicit funds for
the immediate relief. If she had this
fund to work upon, the merchants
and business men of the city would
not be 'panhandled" several times ev-
cry month, or whenever the necessi- !
ty arises. Mrs. Curtis suggests that
the league organize a charity auxili-
airy and run it on a business basis, |
and they would then have the salts
faction of knowing that they were
doing some real good for the city |
and for humanity.

has no right, legal or otherwise, to de-

This statement was given out to-
day from a department Of the Mexi-
can government. The informant said
it was decided to incorporate in the
reply a declaration that Huerta in
tends to increase the Mexican army
to five hundred thousand men.
The final stages in the negotiations
are to be participated in by John
Lind, who arrived from Vera Cruz this
morning. Huerta's former delay in
replying to the United States de-
mands has annoyed Lind and his sud
den appearance here is taken to indi-
cate his desire to bring the thing to

Lind to Mexico City,

Washington, d. c., Nov. John
Linds unexpected return last night
from Vera Cruz to Mexico City was
said here today to have been without
orders, and this development was sur
rounded by reticence in government
circles.
One officials view is that Charge
dAffairs O'Shaugnessey has either re.
ceived intimation that Huerta is
about to answer the American de-
mands for his resignation, or wants
to conferwith Lind on additional steps.
When the cabinet meeting broke up
today, the members refused to COM
ment on the dispatches relating to
Huerta's reply, but admitted that the
Mexican situation had been discussed.
