Editor Honolulu Star-BHlletin,
Sir: ! should like to have Mr.. John
Balch answer a question or two in
regard to his letter in last nights
Star-Bulletin.
Does he really believe that an hon,
est, upright and useful citizen" will
be found drunk in a disreputable house
at o'clock in the morning? How
much thought did the murdered man
himself give to his wife and child
and numerous friends when he went
to such a place? Was he any more
lost to shame than the man who killed
him in this same place and who had
been a partner with him in his in,
decencies? How are We going to bring
cur sons up to be decent men when
men who infest bawdy houses are
called by other men honest, upright
and useful citizens?"

THE BOlL.EORH EXPEDITION

Governor Pinkham's inability to see the way
for the Territory to finance an African expedi-
ton for boIl-worm parasite is indeed cause for
genuine regret. According to all indications
cotton furnishes one, of the most promising of
the diversified crops-if freed from the boil
worm pest. -.o.*
1t is manifest, however, that as between the
Mediterranean fruit fly and the boil worm, the
fight against the former should have prece-
dence. The fruit fly campaign is well under
way, and it must be continued not alone for the
commercial welfare Of Hawaii, but as a measure
Of protection for the Pacific Coast We are as
much interested in preventing the pest from
reaching California as the Coast state is to head
1t Off
In times Of financial stress many desirable
things have to be put off. Or else we have to
look in other directions to secure the where
withal
This paper is informed that the review of the
cotton situation has brought from men holding
large areas of land letter in which these own
ers state their belief that, freed from the boil
worm, cotton could be made more profitable
crop than sugar on certain lands under their
control.
Now these same interests have accumulated
considerable fortunes from sugar in the past.
What could be better monument to men or
Interests than private expedition financed by
and in the name of these men or interests, the
whole purpose being to guarantee new indus
try and give the small producer better chance
to make good living in Hawaii?
Fifteen thousand dollars is not such a very
large sum to put ont in the form of a very prac-
teal enterprise

FLYING AROUND THE WORLD

The number Of fatalities that have occurred
Of late, among bird-men in the heavierthan-air
flying machines, makes one stop to consider, or
at least attempt to estimate, where it is all go
ing to end. The eyer-increasing toll Of death
clearly shows that the element of safety, which
every plane manufacturer and every aviator
is trying to establish is tagging far in the rear
ofsother successes scored in the operation of the
aeroplane.
And the worst is yet to come!
Plans have been perfected for an aviation
meet that will be Of tremendous Importance
md Interest. This is the proposed race of air
raft around the globe. The proposition is to
start from San Francisco at an appointed date
during the Panama Pacific exposition in 1915
travel an easterly course, passing by the short
est possible route to New York, then on to Belle
Isle thence to a point on Greenland and On to
Iceland; another squirt taking the contestants
via the Hebrides to Edinburgh through the prin-
eipal cities of Europe, leaving ST Petersburg, to
follow the traIisS Siberian railway to yladi-
rostok. Japan is next in line. and from there
to Kamchatka, planning a direct course for the
Aleatian islands, thence by stages down the Pa
cifie coast to the point of beginning j
Circling the globe in an aeroplane is not, the
oretically, or as mapped out on papersuch a stu
pendous undertaking for one thoroughly Versed
in the art of air navigation. The longest stretch
Of open water to be crossed is about six hundred
mils-from Greenland to Iceland, and the next
longest is from Iceland to the Hebrides, SO
miles Other stretches vary from 80 to 200
miles
Ninety days is the time limit set for the com
pletion of the course, and the aviator finishing
in the best time will be rewarded with fortune
of 100000 There are other prizes inspropor-
tomato amounts.
1t has been clearly shown at this date that
there will be no lack of contestants, for the
money inducements will attract a large field.
This will certainly be the most thrilling spec
taele the world has yet witnessed The bait will
tempt many who will not be competent to make
the Journey and others will attempt it in ill-con
structed planes, and there will surely be consid
cradle falling BY the wayside and without doubt
some falling from the air
If that element of safety has not been adj
ysaced to.a greater degree of perfection than is

ADVANCE GUARD
 IS AT PINE BLUFF
POLITICIANS ASSEMBLING
FIGHT TO ORGANIZE CONVEN- TON BEING KEPT IN THE
 BACK GROUND.

Little Rock, June 1.-The advance
 guard of Arkansas politicians jour neyed to Pine Bluff Sunday afternoon to open headquarters for the contest ants in the Senatorial squabble before the State Democratic Convention which convenes Wednesday. Senator James P. Clark and Judge Wm. F..
 Kirby went to Pine Bluff today, Sen ator Clarke to personally take com mand of his headquarters at the Hotel Jefferson, while Judge Kirby will be with his followers at the Hotel Pines. R. P. Allen and Frank Kitchens of Helena, who were in charge of Clarke headquarters before the primary, will be in charge of Clarke headquarters at Pine Bluff, and Judge Kirby. will have on hand his old advisers, Smead Powell, Frank and Troy Pace, Judge Carter of Texarkana, and Wallace Davis.
 The rank and file of Arkansas poli- tics has been rolling into Little Rock all day, and will go on to Pine Bluff on each train bound for that Arkan- sas river port.
 Neither Senator Clarke nor Judge Kirby will discuss the temporary or permanent organization of the con- vention, but it is evident that both are working to secure control of both or ganizations if possible. Senator Clarke states that it is not customary to complete the organization of con- vention until all forces are on the ground, and he will not lay any plans until the preliminary meeting to be held Tuesday.
 Senator Joe T. Robinson arrived from Washington Saturday and will be one of the active agents in the con- yention. He is Clarke supporter.
 There have been number of re- ports sent out that J. c. Floyd will not attend the convention, but close friends assert this is mistake, and that he will be on hand to accept the permanent chairmansiip Of the con vention if it is rendered him.
 Several delegations will got to Pine Bluff on special trains, among them being the delegates from Phillips and Lee counties, and the friends of Judge Kirby from Texarkana.
 Many counties will present two delegations and the convention must decide which is entitled to a seat. It is claimed that in many of these counties the county convention was not legally held, and for that reason an effort will be made to throw them out.

NEW TEACHER FOR
 PRACTICE SCHOOL

Upon the recommendation of Pres ident J. J. Doyne, the executive com mittee of the State Normal board of trustees yesterday afternoon elected Miss Ivah F. Mover, of Athens, Ga, as supervising teacher of the practice school, succeeding Mis- Ruth O. Dyery who has resigned and will discontinue teaching. Miss Mover is a graduate of Columbia University and was for six years superintendent of the pri- mary schools in Roanoke, Va. For the past two years she has been su- perintendent of the training school at Athens, Ga, and was reelected to the same position, but was released at the request of President Doyne in or der to accept her new position. She and Miss Dyer were co-laborers in the Roanoke schools and Miss Dyer has recommended her very highly.
 President Doyne says he feels very keenly the loss of Miss Dyer from the faculty. Under her direction the mod el school had an unusually successful year, and the students of the Normal and patrons of the training school are alike delighted with her work She will leave Conway with the best wishes of a host of friends
