COMMON SENSE IN CANADA

1t was the mayor, as we remember, who Sug-
gested in his naive little way that the procedure
to keep Honolulu free of auto accidents is to
remove all the horns and other warning-appara-
tus from cars Then, he maintained, people
would always keep a sharp lookout and thus
avoid getting themselves run over
The mayors suggestion has recently been
followed by the further proposal, equally prac-
ltical, that if mounted police officers wish to
Eeep from getting run down from behind they
should hang red taillights to the caudal APP
pendages of their steeds. .....

"Automobile regulations in the Province of
Quebec impose fine of 800 for the first Of

this provision. The bells, horns, and other sig

A GRAND JURY REPORT THAT DEMANDS ACTION

The territorial grand jury has let in some
much.needed light on the saloon business in
Honolulu.
The light is also turned OH the relations of
the Honolulu Brewing Mailing Company to
retail businesses, and it falls with especial
strength upon the relations of Charles q. Bart
lett, president and manager Of the brewery, and
three or four of the retail SalOOnmen.
While finding that the involved transactions
between Bartlett, Lynch Waterman, COrnyn
for Sullivan) and the brewery are not criminal
in nature, the jury has found evasions OF the
law, in spirit, at least; it has found trickery,
deceit and double=dealing.
The charges made by the Star Bulletin when
this paper demanded grand jury investiga-
ton have been proved; the questions asked in
the columns of this paper day after day have
been answered.
In the report made public last night by sub
committee of the grand jury, named to carry
on the investigation, this trickery, deceit, dOu-
ble-dealing are plainly shown. ...
The various transactions involving the Pa.
cific saloon were made possible because Bart
lett, Sullivan, Lynch and Waterman were will
ing to 90 into secret deals and silent partner
ships, in defiance of the plain spirit of the Ii
cense commissions ruling made as long ago
as 1910. Ii, as some OF them say they acted
in ignorance, that very ignorance of the reg
ulation and of the nature of business transac-
tions would seem in all common-sense to I'M
fit them for holding saloon licenses.
Did p. +. Corynn dick Sullivan) knowing
" make false affdayits as to the ownership
of the Pacific saloon?
The grand jury report says:
when application made to the liquor
license f..
the applicant for the Pacific Saloon. The license
granted to Mr.. Cornyn. and far the
missioners the public knew, Mr. Cornyn the
only interested party in the saloon.
From July l. 1910, until July l. 1911,
led TO believe that Mr.. Cornyn only an employee,
working salary.
ION July ], 1912. there was copartnership agree
ment entered into. whereby c. G. Bartlett Emil
Waterman and Philip F, Cornyn became equal own

ers in the Pacific Saloon, having each a one-thrd
interest
MIR. Cornyn borrowed the money giving I he
Honolulu Brewery his for 900 with mort
gage the saloon security.
This arrangement apparently proved satisfactory
to all concerned. Mr. Bartlett and Mr.. Waterman
receiving thei. pro rata of the profits, being
thirds OF and Mr.. Cornyn receiving onethird.
Mr.. Cornyn apparently retained $3.50 per month
for living expenses the balance of his share of the
profits being paid to the brewery acc unt of his
note.
Upon the payment of this note Mr.. Cornyn held
his one-third interest clear.
There be doubt but that the agreement
of copartnership fully understood by the three
interested parties, the terms of
scientiously lived up to.
Did Lynch know what sort of a secret deal
with Bartlett he was a party to? The grand
jury report says:
"The agreement between Mr. Bartlett as two,
thirds owner and Mr. Lynch. owning one-third
apparently fully Understood by both parties, Mr..
Lynchs affidavit to the contrary Notwithstanding as
the conditions of always adhered to, to
the effect that two thirds of the profits paid to
Mr.. Bartlett. and in addition thereto Mr.. Lynch
paid certain a@lount from his onc-third profit to
apply to his Indebtedness to the brewery.
The report puts it up to the license commits
sion to take action. On this point:
"The liquor commissioners acquainted with
practically all of the transactions mentioned in this
report in the face of which they why
the various licenses should not be renewed trans
ferred to other owners.
1.-THE license commissioners in absolute control
of the situation. They can make license valuable
otherwise by insisting that the holders Of the
license comply with, not only the law but with all
regulations adopted by the commission ...":
The canceing of one two licenses for evadng
regulations would soon teach holder of license
that there was some value to the license if he
ducts his business properly; the contrary, if he
does not, the license wouldn't be worth the paper it
is written .s.. l. "....
There should be no need of a grand jury investi-
cation into the liquor business; the liquor commits
sioners the judges, and they should STOP any
questionable transactions by refusing to renew
evidence %
isfaction." ":.." r..
The license commission has won the conf
denee of the public for its energy and impair
TALLY in the past. 1t has the power not only
to renew licenses, but to revoke licenses. We
shall await with peculiar interest some early
action by the commission as result of this
grand jury report. s.aa..

The HUsflCE CANDIDACY

Charles Hustace, Jr., who has announced his
candidacy for the mayoralty as Republican,
is businessman who made success of his
term as chairman of the board of supervisors
During that term, he won the respect and sup
port of his colleagues and the cooperation of
the community to marked extent. He is out
spoken, honest, not always tactful but always
in earnest; he is under the domination of no
man CT set of men, and he ran independently
two years ago because he believed the then
existing convention system had wronged him
and wronged the voters of Oahu. His brief
announcement says: "For efficiency in city adj
ministration for Honolulu nein
To date four Republican candidates have APP
peared- John G. Lane, Harry E. Murray, Joel
c. Cohen and Charles Hustace. Hustace has
had more actual experience in public Office
than any of the others except Murray, and
Hustaces record was far more successful than
Murrays. : He will have large following
among the Hawaiian voters for he worked we'll
with the Hawaiians who made up the board of
which he was chairman, and he is not "hoo-
kano.r
Mr.. Hustace's candidacy must be and should
be taken seriously 1t may still further divide
the anti-Lane vote, but on the other hand it will
take away some Lane support and it may mean
an immediate movement to concentrate the sup
port of the large Independent vote that de-
mands businesslike government of the city
first, last and all the time.
Weighing we'll each mayoralty factor as it
appears, the voters will be wise if they reserve
final Judgment until all the candidates are in
the field
