Waycross, Ga, Dec. I'm one of the
most sensational sermons ever deliv-
cred in Waycross DR.. W. P. Price, pas
tor of the First Baptist church Sun
day night declared Waycross the
worst city this side of hell, making
his statement Immediately after he
expressed his pleasure at living in
a city of so much civic pride. His
sermon advised voters in the ap-
preaching municipal primary they
were confronted with grave ques-
tons and he warned them if a cef-
tain candidate should be named
mayor Waycross would become an
"open town" No names were called,
but by his advocacy of good govern
ment it was made quite clear who he
spoke for and who against.

1t is the first time minister has
taken up the political cause Of any
man from Waycross pulpit. At a
mass meeting of men at the Y. M. c.
A. in the afternoon he charged that

church choirs in Waycross who had
five or six admirers waiting for them
as soon as their husbands went to
work.
His insinuations in this respect and
remarks to young men because of the
Sunday lid question are causing much
comment here, and it is reported he
may be asked for a retraction. Dr..
Price is the minister whose public
criticism of former School Supt. E. A.

caused such excitement here apl
ended by apology from the pulpit and
retraction of the statement made
against Mr.. Pound.

SENATOR JUDD TO
LEAVE PUBLIC
OFFICE

Senator A. F. Judd has announced
that he will not be a candidate for
reelection. The announcement made
at this time, when the session of the
r1egislature is on its last laHs. has
caused no little speculation among the
solons as to who will succeed him ,as
chairman of the judiciary committee.
and though election day Is still far
off, importuning is already starting
to have the senator reconsider his
decision.
Just now they are becoming fully
conscious of the enormous amount Of
work the senator has accomplished
during the session, as chairman OF
the judiciary committee and a mem
Der of number of other committees,
ant measures. The Democrats as well
as the Republicans have been heard
urging Senator Judd to resume his
seat in 1915, but SO far he has held
by his first announcement and reit-
crates that he will not be a candi-
date again.
Il feel that in justice to my family
and the practice of my profession
cannot again become a candidate for
the senate" said Mr.. Judd this morn
ing, when asked by the Star Bulletin
If the report of his determination was
correct. Il have given four years to
my duties as member of the senate
and it viii be impossible for me to
devote as much time to public office
during the next f6ur years. 1t has
been an exceedingly interesting four
years and were it not that must de-
vote myself to the practice of law
very closely in the future, | would
rot have made this decision"
The report of the senator's deter
minaticn to retire is received with
regret by his colleagues. As head of
the judiciary committee, he is said
by the other senators to be the hard
est-worked man in the upper house
and his committee does very efficient
service.

SENATOR f1AkEkAU HAS FUN
WITH A JOKER" WATER BILL

What has been branded as a Joker
had its head snapped off in the SEN
ate this morning, and though Senator
Makekau smiled it wasn't the smile of
victory, but something OF the con-
verse.
The scheme for Honokaa to get a
waterworks was nicely worked out,
and it probably would have passed in
the senate had not Senator'S Rice and
Writ, and dozen or so others, no.
ticed the bug. whereupon Senator Ma
kekau asked that the bill be re-refer-
red to his select Hawaii committee.
The plan, which he freely admitted
afterwards, was that new bill to
establish a water works system should
be introduced by the committee. The
first bin was objected to because it
asked that the territory pay the costs
of the works, but in the second meas
ure. il was provided that the money
should be advanced by way of a loan
10 Honokaa. and that the government
should be paid back.
So far everything was all right.
But Senator Makekau recommended
that the original one be tabled, but
according to his report they over
Tapped and both should be passed.
1t was here the Joker was found

Finally, no one seems to have con-

point that the United States maintains
at large expense an army and navy

of law; and the law of the Territory
of Hawaii like that OF most Of the

IN
FAVOR OF new
ELECTRIC BILL
BY Vote of Sixteen to- Four, As
SoCiation Endorsed Theo.
Hoffman Grant

By a vote of 16 to 4 the Merchants
Association this morning endorsed the
bin to grant to Theodore Hoffman a
franchise for electric light and power
in the city and county OF Honolulu.
At least these figures reversed We're
the count whereby a motion against
the proposed franchise was defeated,
after which q motion to endorse the
bill was declared carried without a
formal count of the show of hands.
This action was taken at special
meeting called by the directors to con-
slider the bill. President Swain an
nounced the purpose on calling the
meeting to order, stating that the d.
rectors did not feel like passing upon
the measure without reference to the
association.
The first thing done was to refuse
hearing to VIM. Gitt on the ques-
ton, letter from him asking for the
privilege having been read, In which
he engaged to use nothing but courte-
Gus language. M. Brasch said that,
inasmuch as Mr.. Gitt was not mem
ber of the association and as his ad-
vertisements showed he had an axe
to grind, he should not be heard, and
moved accordingly. With an amend
ment suggested by w. HI. McInerny to
confine the refusal to that particular
occasion the motion carried.
6 Mr.. McInerny opened the discussion
by asking what interest the associa-
tion had in the matter anyway.
Grant as many franchises as you
want" he went on to say. 1T seems
TO me that to oppose this franchise Is
ike throwing business away.

'RED-LIGHT' BILL
TO BE ENDORSED
BY MEMS LEAGUE

The Mems League Of Central Union
church Is taking an active interest In
the passage of Senator Bakers so
called 'red-light' bill, the purpose OF
which Is to prosecute those who are
the owners of houses or resorts main
tanned for Illicit purposes. and at a
meeting of the members OF the
league which is to be held during the
early part of next week the matter
will be taken up for discussion and
several persons will speak in favor Of
the passage of the bill.
The executive committee OF the
league met last Monday afternoon, at
which time the question of the league
backing the bill was first brought up.
1t was decided then that the league
do all in It's power to secure the pas
sage of the BILL A member OF the
committee, when asked this morning
concerning the prevailing attitude to-
ward the bill by the league, said:
1.-The modern scientific method OF
handling this problem is exactly the
same as the method dealing with MUIR
der, theft or similar crimes. Make it
a crime and prosecute it. The old
idea of the restricted district is no
longer held b ythose who are well In
formed on. the matter. Opinions IA
Vorable to a resort destined for pros
titution are held by two classes of
people: first, those who are not in
touch with the findings of recent
thorough investigations, or who, if ia.
miliar with these findings, are not
willing to open their minds to enter
tain new idea. Some of them mean
we'll, in fact most of them do, but in
arguing in favor of a resort for pros
litution they are arguing in the face
of the established facts of the day,
and against the best opinions of those
who have investigated the subject
thoroughly.
such opinions are held in the sec.
ond place by persons directly inter
ested in the Illicit traffic The chief
Of police who profits by the traffic;
the owners of the resorts who get
the rents; the hack drivers who serve
the procurers; the policeman who
gets his rake-off for being blind, and
lastly the politician who feeds his
family and buys stocks and bonds
from his share of the swag. You will
find all these classes in favor of the
restricted district; and beyond these
you will find nonee. The uniformed
and obstinate on the one hand, and
the grafters on the other are all IN
favor Of the restricted district.

FAVORS
AINAHAU GIFT

Though there are threats Of further
opposition to the Iaukea BILL propo9-
ing to accept the Cleghorn gift Of Al
nahau, the publ chearing yesterday
afternoon won number Of Influential
house members to the ranks Of its ad-
herents. The most powerful, probably
of all these is Speaker Holstein, who
announced today that he Is now
thoroughly convinced the gift should
be accepted, and that he will lend al
his aid to the passage OF the bill.
One of the features Of the hearing
that bore great weight with him was
announced willingness OF the Hons
lulu supervisors to take charge anc
assume the responsibility for the pro-
posed Kaiulani park 1t was because
the supervisors two years ago took no
interest or appeared even avefse %
the proposition, that he voted aasihst

charge OF the property he says h cali
see no reason why 1t should not pc
given the privilege.
In addition, the speaker now M
tends having bill introduced con-
yeying the entire control Of all other
public parks in Honolulu, now han
died by the territorial government, to
the city and county. This bill is to
make its appearance in the next day
or two.
"One feature of this proposition that
has lust been brought TO my atten-
tion,a said Holstein this morning, IS
that in refusing AinahSu We are tactt-.
ly approving the argument that es-
tates should go to heirs and opposing
bequests to the public by wealthy men
and women who are philanthropically
inclined
tsIn doing this We might check the
public works of such people as the
Cooke Estate, the BaIdwins, the Ather-
tons, Wilcox and others, who already
have given fortunes to welfare proi-
ects and may later desire to give 9TH

House Committee Roasts De-
partment of Public Works for
Laxity and Incompetency

Owing TO gross carelessness on the
part Of the head. Of the public works
department. as It sets forth in its
report, the finance committee of the
house this morning recommended the
passage of Senator Chillingworth's
s. b. ~, which provides for the re-
endorsement of laborers and material
men who furnished labor and build
ing material for the construction OF
the new Boys Industrial School at
Waialee, Oahu.
The committees report is a scath-
ing criticism of the public works de-
partment, explaining that the superin-
tendent failed to abide by the law in
the case of Contractor Angus p. Nc
Donald, who was paid nearly all the
money appropriated for the new school
building and who then FASTENED away,
leaving considerable number of un-
paid bills
The report, given in full below, was
adopted, and the bill for the reim-
bursement OF the laborers and mate
rialmen who were left holding the
SACK when Mcdonald vanished. is
scheduled for final reading In the
house tomorrow morning Having
passed the upper house. it will go di-
rect to the governor after leaving the
house tomorrow.
The finance committees report is as
follows:
1T would seem from your commit
tees investigation that the public
works department approved OF the
final payment to the contractor with
out first being fully advised whether
or not the contractor had paid the
Outstanding bills on the job, although
the contract clearly states that,
The contractor agrees that he will
furnish satisfactory evidence that all
persons. firms or corporations who
have done work or supplied material
under this agreement have been paid
or satisfactorily secured before the
superintendent of public works shalt
make final payment to the contractor
In case such evidence is not fur
nished, such amount as may be neces-
sary to meet the claims of said per-
sons, firms or corporations may be
retained from the moneys due said
contractor under this contract until
the liabilities shall be fully discharged
or notice of such liabilities with
drawn.
1T would seem to your committee
that the public works department was
exceedingly lax in handling this, mat
ter, since from testimony given before
your committee it appears that the
chief clerk of the department advised
his superiors that there were put
standing claims against the contract
on account of materials furnished for
the building, and even in the face of
such information the head of the de-
partment certified vuncher for the
final payment.
Your committee believes that
since no materialmen's lien can be
filed against a territorial building
that it is proper for the territory to
make good, what to US appears, a
wrong done certain claimants owing
to gross carelessness on the part of
the head of the public works depart
ment, and we therefore recommend
the passage Of the bill"
