WELL, HARDLYl

In spite of the laudable efforts Of our morn
ing friend to make this paper out guilty of
violating neutrality yesterday, the Star Bulle-
tin has not been declared culpable and iniqui-
tous by the collector of the port, as our con-
temporary seems to think. The enormous
offense involved in reporter S carrying few
papers of past dates to the captain of a warship
off port as an act of courtesy might have a
place in the crime category of some Gilbert &
Sullivan opera, but hardly in the common sense
of an American official. 1t would be different
had information been conveyed to assist a bel
ligerent in naval operations Nothing of the
sort was done. The Hizen's operations We're
not affected by the receipt of the papers could

NATAL DAY OF
kAISERIN IS
QUIETLY KEPT

At s O'Clock this morning a burst Of
color illumined the waterfront-the be-
decking of the craft in port with flags
in honor OF the birthday Of the en-
press of Germany. the Kaiserin Vic.
toria.
AS the little cruiser Geier sent aloft
her gay colors, the u. S. s. Alers's
flags also went up and soon the har-
Dor shipping was bright with bunting.
No salute was fired by the Geier, as
was o-.ginally contemplated, as the
vessel Is lying at wharf and the har-
Dor authorities felt that under these
circumstance The guns should not be
used.
The kafserin was the Princess Au-
gusta Victoria of Schleswig- Eiolstefn-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. She was
born on October %, 1858, and was mar
ried to the kaiser on February q, 1881.
They have seven children, six sons and
a daughter.

served, though in quiet way, the
birthdayYof their beloved empress.

real cause of the present European
war. Austria-Hungary was able to
prove to a shuddering world a few
days after the murder that II had been
prepared and planned systematically
yea, that the Seryiaa government
had been responsible for the plan.
Second Austria Hungary address
ed to the Seryian government num-
Der of demands which aimed at moth
ing but the suppression Of the anti
Austrian propaganda Seryia was on
the point of accepting the demands
when there arrived despatch from

Then Austria had to act. Thus started
the Austro-Servian war.
Third Great Britain asked that
Germany should allow French and Bel
gian troops % form on Belgian terri
tory for march against her own
frontier. England and France were
resolved not to respect the neutrality
of Belgium. They did not give up
their plans of attacking Germany
through Belgium"
Fourth. England aims at being
mistress of the old world In order to
occupy either an equal or menaeing
position towards the new world. For
this purpose she has encouraged this
war"
Had this document been issued by
an ordinary newspaper, m the excite
ment Of the times, it would not be
worth calling attention to; but when
such a document Is issued by the
highest German thinkers, pretending
to set forth the facts or the case. it
Is most extraordinary. It is unlike
German procedure Had these pre-
eminent men and investigators of his
tory set forth their views about any
facts in the history Of Greece, or
Rome or France or England or Ger
many. in times past. these facts would
have been accepted by the learned
world as final
However, the whole pamphlet shows
how impossible It Is to get at the true
facts occurring right under our noses
when great emotion, and especially
patriotic emotion, is called forth as Il
has been In this case These Ireemi-
nent men must have had all the facts
In the German, English, Austrian and
Russian chancelleries. and it is little
perturbing to the ordinary well-in-
formed man that such a document
should have been issued over the
names OF men whose reputation 10
known the world over
The whole thing teaches a lesson to
those who are seriously ipuairing aft
er the facts of the case. The English
and German white papers as set
forth from the foreign offices OF both
countries are substantially the same.
They only differ in the Interpretation
Of the facts set forth. Each belliger-
ent, under emotional, patriotic fervor,
tries to make the best impression up
On the world at large. and as said
before, these things would be some
what exeusable IN popular publica-
tons, written hurriediys and for the
uninformed public Many Of these so,
called facts are either falsehoods or
deliberate perversion of facts. and will
have tendency to injure rather than
enhance the German side of the ques-
ton.
The writer of this communication IS.
neither pro-EngIish, pro-German. pro-
French. nor pro-Russian. but he Is an
honest seeker after all the facts which
led up to the greatest disaster to hu-
manity that has ever happened upon
this earth.

DANGEROUS DISTORTION.

The present campaign of the Democrats on
Oahu has probably never been excelled for
distortion and befogging Of issues.
Not even in 1915, when the Democrats were
in the midst Of their famous banana cam
paign, did they resort to more desperate tao
ties than they are using today sample OF their
political policy IS the mariner in which they are
twisting the local impfov law or frontage
tax issue Night after night the Democratic
orators tell the voters that this law is meant
to take away the property of the poor man and
give it to the rich man.
Another sample:

EDITOR
IN THE HANDS OF THE FOURTH
DISTRICT

Honolulu's government for the next two
years lies very largely in the hands of the
Fourth district voters.
i The Fifth district will, as always, cast big
vote at the polls in comparison to the registra
ton. The indications are that the Republican
ticket will be largely supported in the Fifth
district. For instance, it is confidently pre-
dicted that John G. Lane will run well ahead
of Joe Fern for mayor, and political observers
firmly believe that William Henry will output
Charles Rose for sheriff among the voters OF
this section. Likewise Charles N Arnold, one
of the best men who has appeared for super
visor in a number of years, will draw strongly
in the Fifth district. ...===.
The danger in the Fourth district is not that
the normal Republican vote will go Democratic
in any considerable body, but that it will moi
60 at all that there will be too much stay
Lat-hone politics.
In the Fourth district also there is large
Independent vote. 1t was this vote that helped
GUST the Republican board of supervisors two
years ago. If that same vote is east this year
with the same yigor as it was cast in 1912, it
would go to the Republican candidates for
supervisor fact to practically the entire
.Republican ticket.
Political meetings in the Fourth district are
being SHINY attended. That is pity, for a
good opportunity would be given to compare
the two different styles of campaigning the
Democratic and the Republican. The Demo
Gratis are long on promises of big wages, on
on twisting the facts. The Re
publicans discuss workmen's compensation,
local improvements, a better police system, ter
ritorial accounts, the tariff. And yet to those
who do not take the trouble to inform them
selves, the Democratic campaign carries a
pune" because of its very noise and loud as
sertion.
One thing is as sure as the rising of the sun
the Fourth district must shake off its APP
parent apathy on election day if any improve
.ment in municipal government is to be record
ed in 1915 and 1916.
