Mayor Matheson has called atteh-
ton to the fact that the toy pistols
which are being sold in Gainesville
by some of the merchants at least
come under the ban OF law. They are
dangerous, and as suc:l those selling
them and those on whose persons
these toy pistols are found are sub
ject to arrest and fine. A hint to the

1t would have been a monstrous
outrage on the American people, as
we'll as helpless Mexico, to have
forced a state of war because of this

shots. The Mexican leaders have
fully disclaimed any purpose to hurt
our people and have taken steps to
prevent similar accidents in the fu-
ture. In addition, our troops are
there by command of the president
to do what is right In the premises,
and frontier incident without Sc
rious significance is thus disposed of.

neighbor across the Rio Grande. 1t
is a "vacillating" policy, says the
Herald. 1t it had said an elastic
policy, conforming itself of neces.
sity to the incessantly changing con-
ditions of the strife, without at any
time compromising the rights and
dignity of this government, it would
have been nearer the truth; 1t would
have stated the exact truth.
We are in no sense the keepers or
guardians of Mexico. We exercise no
protectorate, actual or implied over
that country, but as civilized neigh
Dor nation we are charged with the
duty of doing what we can to coun-
sci and pacificate, and without COM
hitting ourselves to any faction,
help to establish a decent, stable
government founded as near as may
Re ON right and justice. Such a
duty President Wilson has dis.
charged with high conscience and
rare fidelity, and so obviously un-
selfish and we'll meaning have been
his motives that all factions in Mex
leo respect us and court our moral
support.
So far from this policy tending to
bring on the supreme calamity of
war, as the Herald asserts, it has
had precisely the opposite effect and
our relations with that country anu
its rival leaders are now such that
the dreaded contingency of armed
Intervention has disappeared, and
our attitude has been so indicated
by events and is so firmly settled
that there is no element in this
country-barring the jingoes, who
are always for war and whose clam

A POLICY WITH HONOR
WITHOUT VACILLATION

Our very able and always inter
esting contemporary, the Miami
Herald, vigorously resents an init
nation in recent number of the
Telegram that the Herald seems to
want war between the United States
and Mexico because of the accident
al killing of four or five American
citizens on the Arizona border by
the shots of Mexicans firing at each
other in row on their own soil.
The following quotation is from the
Herald:
For the first time in memory, the
Telegram has guessed wrong. That
paper usually has such clear vision
OF things that it is disappointment
to find that it draws the wrong con-
clusion, even once. The Herald is
not in favor OF declaring war against
anybody. What the Herald has crit
1cised in the handling of the Mexi-
can affairs is that it tends to bring
on the necessity for war. whether
we declare it or not. What this pa
per regards with extreme disfavor is
the vacillating policy of the admin
1stration toward the Mexican people.
especially that part of them that is
In arms. 1t is that policy that has
permitted the lives of Americans to
be taken without protest from this
country. 1t is that policy that has
made 1t impossible for Americans to
live and do business in Mexico. It
is that policy that has permitted the
factions of Mexico to treat all things
american with the utmost con-
tempt"
This shifts the issue from tho
Arizona or Naco incident and ar /
raigns the whole policy of the al. Z

Mrs. Edgar Henriques, Mrs. John G.
Lane and Mrs. Fred Maefarlane met
the board Of supervisors saturday af-
ternoon at the Queen Emma residence
in upper Nuuanu Valley where tenta-
tive plans for the Identifying Of the
property and rehabilitating the old
homestead were gone over.
Although the historic building shows
signs Of decay In places and is in bad
repair generally IL Is thought that Nv

ing that the balance OF the structure
can be made safe for a small expense.
Mrs. Lowrey addressed the board Of
supervisors on the premises and briefly
outlined the plans of the Outdoor Cir.
Gle of the Kilohana Art League and
pointed out several sections of the pie
tureque property that could be terraeed
and planted with grass, making the
grounds ono of Honolulu's greatest
beauty spots
IL was suggested that an extensive
fernery be built on the promises where
an exhibition Of Hawaiian ferns could
be made. Mrs. Lowrcy stated that
many tourists who arrive here ask
among the first thing to see Hawaiian
terms and maidenhair. There is no
public exposition here where these
plants may be seen outside of one or
Two private collections that are on OK
hibition on certain days of the week.
Mrs. Lowrey further suggested that
when the Queen Emma home was put
in a habitable condition that care.
takcr should be installed who could
serve tea, milk aud light refreshments
in the afternoon for a nominal sum.
The property, which comprises about
eleven acress with its natural sur.
roundings; its ancient and historic
trees, some of which were planted by
Queen Emma herself, and the magnif.
cent panoramic view of Honolulu and
the. ocean that can, be seen from any
point on the premises could be made
into magnificent park and one of
Honoidlnis most famous show places.
~ Az thei conciusioIif Of the conference
the supervisors advised the women to
have a competent contractor inspect
the building and submit price for
the needed repairs. The matter would
then DO taken up at regular meeting
Of the board. UnofIieially the super
yis0rs expressed themselves as being
strongly in favor Of the plans as out
lined but were in quandary as to
where the money was coming from to-
carry out the project.

premises Saturday and attended the
