the present system of territorial board of
health and municipal health department is one
of the products of this inefficient system.
Now the city has six sanitary inspectors who
arc paid city salaries, but, under an amicable ar
md the board of health, are handled by the terri
"riaf officials. The city is paying for service
he territory gets, though, of course, the service
$ performed in the city.
In the opinion Of the Star Bulletin, the city's
tealtl ought to completely and forever be re-
roycJ from the dangerous zone of political in
luence. This, of course, is impossible. So long
- the structure of our government rests on poll
les, every function will be more or less affected
~ politics. But at least we can remove the
,ealth of the city from petty politics. from parti
an municipal politics. The way to remove it is
% eentralize the entire sanitation work of Ha-
Maii IN the territorial board of health The pres
int board of supervisors, we feel sure, will be
quite willing for the territory to take over the
municipal health department. Perhaps short
inllet fern Of municipal government here would
get better results with sanitary matters, but that
is a mere guess on the future. The territorial
boar1 of health ought to have entire control OF
health matters, even i'm the city. That is the only
way Honolulu is going to avoid repetitions Of In
stances Of the kind now before the citizens, So
long as there Is a health department under the
control Of supervisors who owe their elections
to the people, just so long that department, and
any other department, will have to be used for
paying political debts, And just SO long as the
health department is used for paying political
debts, just SO long the people of Honolulu will
have TO take their chances on the character and
fitness of the appointees. r, i

FROM THE SOLDIERS.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Strive kindly ask that you pub
lish this letter in your paper.
In a few more days the entire regi-
ment Of the 9Th United States Cavalry
will depart, perhaps forever, from this
beautiful isle. In parting we leave
behind friends and a reputation Of
which we are Justly proud, and carry
with rs kind thoughts of Honolulu
and hope that sometime we shall again
be stationed here. We wish to state
further that IL the people of Honolulu
will come forward we shall show our
appreciation In some way. The SOL
|diers are afraid to butt in and the
people are "either" afraid or don't
want to. l,.'.,
We are sorry we could not become
better acquainted, but hope that the
4th Cavalry boys will be able to get
better acquainted. However, we wish
to thank the people of Honolulu for
their little kindnesses and assure
them that wherever we may roam in
the future we shall always remember
with pleasure Honolulu and its people.
Yours in friendship,
THE JOLLY TROOPERS,

HEALTH And THE POLITICAL SYSTEM

The action OF the Democratic supervisors in
dropping the milk inspector because he is a Re-
publican and appointing one of their political
creditors because he is democrat, is fairly typi
cal Of the effect of ultrapartisan politics in city
affairs anywhere. The present case lis the more
serious, of course, because the milk inspector is
directly responsible for much of the health of
the city, particularly of the welfare Of the chill
dren. Tie relation between pure milk supply
and healthy children is top familiar to need
much emphasis here It issenough to say that
many rites have succeeded, in lowering their
deatll.fate among children from ten to seventy
five per cent by securing high degree of purity
In the milk sold throughout the city.
The board of agriculture and forestry quite
naturally is averse to taking man of whose
qualifications it knows nothing and risking the
health of the community on the chance that he
will become skilled inspector. The Star Bull
Ietin understands that the appointee of the
board e. j. Gay is veteran ranchman and
presumably knows all about cattle and horses
from the standpoint of a cattleraiser. He will
be called upon, however to make tuberculin tests
and to examine milk, and though he can doubt
less learn this in reasonably short time, the
fact remains that his education for the partic-
ular job to which he is appointed will be secured
very largely at the expense of the community.
The Cav case has peculiar history which shows
the angle that partisan politics may take Gays
brother, this paper is informed, is "a good Dem
ocrat' and wanted the job, but the supervisors
had some disapproyal of him. Nevertheless,
there was political debt to satisfy. Z. j. Gay
was a member of the police force, mounted
patrolman. He was named for the inspectors
Job, and the debt is paid.
The board of supervisors is not to be blamed
Tor this state of affairs any more than the rest
81 the community, any more than the legislature
which in times past created the hybrid city and
county government. The supervisors are caught
between the upper and neither millstones of a.
h6lfvicious and wholly inefficient system. The
.;tx and county should either control its santa
finn .fnnctions absolutely or not at all. The
t.,l;cation of work and of office arising from

The Educational Review just established by
the department of education fills real need in
this territory, and that is the need of closer co.
ordination between the ,%idely.scattered teach
ers, supervising principals and executives of the
head office. The first number of the Review
contains much valuable information. Exchange
of ideas ought to be as effective for progress in
the department of instruction as in any other
function of government. The educator is some
times badly in need of education outside his
somewhat restricted line.

Old Docs Talk



My son. If YOU have friends. you
need enemies They are as necessary
as opposing political parties. They
may prove inconvenient often and
place your competitors in the fore
ground. but in the end they will serve
to bring out some of the ginger that's
in you
Having published their version of
your inherent moral perversities, ex-
posed your table manners. and let the
world know that you are not what you
seem. they will finally subside for
lack of something to stand on.
Then. my boy you will discover
who your friends are. The fake ones
will sniff the air for wireless reports;
some will cease inviting you to din
ner; others will give you the ends of
their fingers and show you in many
ways that you are persona non
grata."
Cutting friends, my son, is an art
as perfect as the art of surgery. but
unfortunately it is only practised by
a set Of persons whose social bearings
are not vet established.
Remember this. my boy, If you are
inclined to feel hurt, land remind your
self that Abraham Lincoln suffered
more from this sort of affront than

The territorial grand jury in report today
reeommcnds that the city publish its resolutions
and ordinances but once. The grand jury's rec
oirnlcndation is based on the worthy aim to Sc
cure economy in city administration, but we do
not believe any such course as is suggested is
sound. 1t has not been found sound economy
elsewhere. The whole theory of publishing ordi-
nances and other measures calling for the APP
preparation Of money is to give entire publicity
to city affairs and to acquaint. the people with
what is going on in their municipal government.
To restrict publicity Of such matters is to re-
strict one function Of government that is quite
as. important as economy.
