'JUGGLERY' KILLS
RED-LIGHT
MEASURE

we believe this to be good bill.
but as IL reached us no late In the
session for any action to be taken
upon same, we recommends that this
bin be tabled. This Is the report OF
the Oahu delegation on the RED
Light" measure to the house this
morning. II was adopted. amid
chuckling.
Through sharp parliamentary
practise that amounted 10 jugRlery,
say several house members. and the
Sinking OF responsibility by the health
and police committee, the Red Light
bill. S. B. 133, was defeated yesterday,
getting no chance to go before the
house on second reading.
II may come up for second reading
today. but 1t is doubtful. as such ac-
ton would not save II and the only
purpose of such reading, to ascertain
how the various house members
stand on the question, would be de-
feated.
The entire house membership might
freely vote for the bill today, know
ing 1t is already dead beyond recall
for the present session. The advo-
Gates of the bill hold Speaker Hol-
stein responsible for its defeat.
II was necessary for the life Of the
bill that 1t pass second reading in
the house yesterday The health and
police committee, to which II had
been referred. returned Il late yester-
day afternoon without recommending
either its passage or defeat. The re-
port merely recommended further
action OF the house."
This cleared the way for the jugg-
ling. 1t could have been taken up
for argument by the house, or could
have been referred to the committee
of the whole with instructions to re-
port back the same day. But those
opposed to 1t contemplated no sucli
action.
The speaker referred 1t to the Oahu
delegation. There apparently was no
logical reason for this, inasmuch as
1t is not customary to shift q bill from
one standing committee to another ex-
cept on recommendation by the first
one receiving 1t. Also, there was no
particular reason why the Oahu dele
cation should take 1t, as this Is not
the only island interested in the vice
problem.
1t appeared then that this was an
effort to defeat the bill. the expecta-
ton being that the Oahu delegations
would defer action until today. Clar-
ence II, Cooke nipped this plan in the
bud, however He Immediately moved
to take a thfrty-mfnute recess, to
give the Oahu delegation a chance to
consider the bill and make report
on it.

MRS. MOTT TELLS OF
W0MAN'S POSITION
IN CHINA AND JAPAN

More tnan 100 women were present
at the home of Mrs. Harmon Hen.
drick Monday afternoon to meet
Mrs John r. Mott, wife of the visiting
religious worker. and listen to an ad
dress delivered by her. For the past
year Mrs. Mott has been with her hus.
band and son on a tour of the world,
during which time she has made an
investigation of the conditions that ex.
list in the lives of the women OF the
Far East.
Taking first the burden which is
borne by the Chinese woman, Mrs.
Mott explained the sorrow in the
hearts of the parents when a girl is
born into a family. The mother, she
said. breads to have her daughter live
the same life which she has led, and
the father considers the feminine por-
ton of the world inferior to the mas
culine. The Japanese women, she
added, are more progressive than In
any other country, but have little to
say concerning their home life. A
Japanese woman may be divorced at
any time her husband sees fit, whether
II pleases her or not An irivestiga-
ton by missionary workers of the di-
vorce statistics in Japan showed that
only two women had had the privilege
of being married more thar once. In
all countries visited by these mission
workers, said the speaker, marriage
conditions are poor.
During her address, Mrs. Mott re-
lated a number of interesting stories
concerning the lives of the natives OF
foreign lands. After she had finished
a number OF the members of Kawaia-
hao Seminary sang for the speaker In

What Is the condition of the

most heartily wished that it would
take a livelier interest In certain leg
islation much desired by farmers, but,
nevertheless, have always most heart
lily wished 1t abundant success. 1t Is
founded on grandly good idea and
certainly Mr.. Barrett has worked hard
indeed to make it success. In a gen.
eral letter dated June "a. 1913, to the
officials and members of the Farmers
union and published in the Union
Farmer, he says:
81 have just completed an
eleven thousand mile trip. visit
ed many states and in that long
journey, taking in practically a
month, 1 personally saw hundreds
of Farmers union enterprises and not
one that is not prospecting and doing
we'll"
But In the same issue of the Union
Farmer there is republished an edito-
rial from Wallace's Farmer, which
says:
The cooperative efforts of the
grange were for the most part fail
ures. The Farmers union OF the south
has established some 1900 co-opera-
tive selling organizations; 1000 Of
these are dead failures and admit 1t;
1000 are living at a poor dying rate
and are about ready to die; some 1000
are really successful and about 1000
fairly So"
Which is telling the truth? Both
statements appear In the same Issue
of one of the official organs Of the
Farmers union. says the Illinois Farm
er and Farmers Call. We very much
hope indeed that Mr.. Barrett's state
ment is the truthful one, but we very
much fear that Mr.. Wallace's state
ment IL nearest the truth. Why can
not the farmers Of the United States
make their cooperative enterprises
successful? Such enterprises among
the farmers of Denmark, Germany.
France, Italy and Great Britain have
been and are highly successful. Ger
tainly we are as intelligent and as
good business men as the farmers of
those countries. Who can make us CO.
operate successfully? Wherein are We
lacking that we cannot make our CO
operative enterprises successful as are
the cooperative enterprises of other
farmers?

ing how profit may be obtained by
culling out the COW which does not

As soon as good results were obtained

the department. A Georgia farmer
writes:
