WIEN MOUNTAINEERING IN HAWAII

Notwithstanding in Hawaii is a splendid
outdoor sport, but like every other strenuous
sport it has it's dangers One of them was illus
tIated with unfortunate vividness yesterday aft
ernOOn when member of the marine corps, hik-
ing in upper Manoa valley, fell over a bluff and
was killed.
1t cannot be too strongly emphasized that
amateur climbers and particularly those unfa-
miliar with Hawaiian conditions and Hawaiian
trails, should never venture without competent
guides into unknown territory. There have been
enough fatal accidents and enough accidents
that nearly proved fatal to show the dangers of
veDturing along cliffs and into valleys where
there are no well-defined and Well-tried trails
Last year three people were nearly killed in Ma
noa and in another instance a man and his wife
got off the trail and narrowly escaped serious
injury.
The Trail and Mountain Club, which is com
posed of people made expert in Hawaiian noun
tain-climbing from sufficient and practical ex-
perience, issues warning, especially to VISITORS
against going into the mountains unless the safe
trails alone are used or unless guides are en-
ployed With proper precautions, mountain
climbing and hiking on Oahu is a vigorous and
thoroughly pleasant sport, but like mountain
climbing everywhere, care must be exercised.
Particularly in the hills and mountains and val
leys of this country is precaution paramount.

DECORATE FOR THE CARNIVAL

To the Business Men and Property
Owners of Honolulu:
Through the columns Of the Star
Bulletin | desire to impress upon your
minds the Importance Of the decora-
tive features Of your Mid-Pacitic Car
nival. now so near at hand.
The intrinsic value Of this carnival
lies in the advertising Honolulu will
receive, provided the event is sue
cessfully carried out, and that is a
fOregOne conclusion. Not only the
parades and entries are to be cOnsid-
cred but your streets, buildings and
store fronts should be embellshed and
tremendously draped with carnival
colors, giving to your parades the
proper avenues through which they
will pass and thus adding to the spirit
of the carnival In California during
the past % years, the decorations OF
the buildings and streets have receiv-
ed large share of the attention and
large sums of money have been paid
in making this feature as elaborate as
possible So as a stranger within your
gates, | urge you to spread yourselves
and every one of you decorate your
stores and buildings.
Very respectfully yours,
ED B. WEBSTER.

THE HEADLIGHT MENACE

This afternoon the corUners jury is invcsti-
eating the death of a Chinese auto-owner and
driver struck and killed. according to best in.
formation, by Il taXicab driven at a compare
lively slow rate. The facts SO far as they have
been learned by the police today, show that the
taxicab driver, japanese, was driving
along King street. The Chinese, crouchcd be-
hind his car, was attempting to fix tire. His
car was not lighted. The taXicab driver crashed
into the unlighted car, and the Chinaman WAS
killed. The Japanese asserts, and the police
credit the assertion, that he was blinded by the
glaring headlights of a large car approaching
from the opposite direction, so blinded that he
could not see the unlig lighted car in front of him.
This matter Of powerful headlights is one
that Honolulu must take up and regulate, as
other cities are doing. In many mainland cities
now the strong searchlightS have been prohibited

CITY RETUENCHMENT

Retrenchment came up for much discussion
at the meeting of the supervisors last night, and
it is evident that this, in connection with the
good roads plan, is being taken up in earnest.
Retrenchment can be accomplished in more
ways than one 1t does not necessarily mean
cutting salaries or disnissing employees. Get
ting more work for the same amount of money is
rCtrenchment.
Retrenchment of this kind can certainly he
put into effect in the road department. Anycnc
who observes rOad-gang for ten or fifteen min
utes will understand why it takes four or five
times as long for the city to do Il given piece of
work as it would for private individual. The
road-wOrkers need competent direction, cOmpe
tent supervision and last, but not least, the
knowledge that if they loaf on the city's time
they are as likely to be discharged as if they
were loafing on the time of private employer.

The Church and the Saloon

A letter from Rev. Arthur s. Chapman, of Shelby
vlle Illinois, reveals the influence OF the saloon upon
the church life Shelbyville for number of years was
in control of the saloon interests Nowhere has the
fight been bitter to keep the saloons and blind
tigers closed up.
year ago the saloons closed and the people
followed the work of closing the saloons with siren
uous law enforcement campaign which has really made
that county seat dry A friendly mayor is in office
and majority of the council are in accord with the
dry town. The temperance people finally out at
every point, and then a union revival was planned
Evangelist E. c. Miller, of South Bend, Indiana was
invited to to the city and hold revival. In the
first letter to Mr. Miller the committee said that the
town having voted dry, was the opportune time
to win to Christ many who had formerly been held
IN the grip of the saloon. The prophecy was made
good There are about 1000 people living in the
and go OF them came out on the Christian side and
declared their intention to live Christian lives The
churches followed the revival with aggressive work
until more than 1000 people for Christ as a
result OF the revival Men have been won who had
there been saloons would have been in the meet
lngs Sixteen former saloonkeepers bartenders and
blind tiger keepers became Christians. much larger
number than these who formerly were held in the
grasp of the saloon, with their wives and children
walked out on the side of Christ
1t is the universal testimony of those interested in
church work at Shebyve that the biggest step in
the great revival the Kidding of the town of saloons
and blind tigers. The church ought to be against the
saloon The church is against the saloon The great
est barrier to active successful Christian work is

After the Election, What?

First comes the city elections April 2I when
some twenty cities and villages will the local

three hundred places will have settled the saloon ques
ton for another years. The April elections are
important but the most important day OF 1914 as we
have been holding before you throughout the year is
not the one in April but in September when the legis-
ative primary will be held On September Q we will
nominate the candidates in the different political par
ties for the house and senate of our legislature
The big fight in the house of necessity come on
primary day, Sept. Q, inasmuch SO per cent of the
men nominated on that day sure to be elected in
November and to occupy in the next Legislative
session This means that every great question CON
corning the saloons must be settled by these men,
issues such as county option residence district blind
tiger law. ant-shipping, the womans suffrage act
and in fact all important legislation will be in the hands
of SO per cent of the men nominated September O.
There is Not Minute to Lose.
This primary day is by all odds the most import
ant day OF the year. The victories at the April
elections will mean little if anything if the United
Societies get control of the next legislature Already
the legislative fight is warming up We must not lose
minute but get all our friends over the state to
work harder if possible for the coming primary
than they have III the valiant and noble work they have
done for the spring elections.
Woman's Suffrage An Issue
The liquor traffic has always fought woman's suf-
frage They will fight it harder than ever from now
on The present womans suffrage act being limited
one does not give the voter the right to vote
for the nomination and election of men to the 1eesla-
ture, consequently the cannot defend the law
that gives them the right of suffrage. Also that
right is not given through constitutional amendment
makes it possible of repeal by mere majority vote in
both the house and the senate. This makes it more
