STAND BY THE DECISION

If the businessmen of Honolulu stand fairly
BY the decision reached Yesterday, the settle
lncnt Of the federal building site problem should
not be far distant
The treasury department is. left with its
hands free and its officials unhampered by RI
val and conflicting claims The question be-
colnes one that the department will settle on the
basis OF getting the most for its available
money. 1t is fairly certain that the enlarged
Mahuka site will not be chosen The other sites
may be obtained with comparatively little trou
bic. Even if there should be condemnation
snits to fix the prices, it is not likely that the
suits will be delayed by teclnicalities
The action Of yesterday means that the first
consideration Of the community is progress
The prime object Is early action The para
mount necessity is the erection of an adequate
federal building here at an early date No OBJ
jccti0ns ethical or otherwise, to any site chosen
Iy the treasury department, are to he allowed
10 stand in the way Of getting the building and
getting ii quickly The sentiment Of yester-
lays meeting is that every objection raised to
any of the sites must he waived if necessary
Following the decision, and the moral agree
ment on the part of those businessmen at the
meeting, the treasury department Should be al
lowed to settle tile site question in its own way
II special agent should be sent here, the var
Gus advantages and disadvantages of the several
sites should be put fairly and fully before
him, bHt there should he no wire-pullng or
tricky manenvering
Outside OF the businessmen OF the two COM
mcrcaI bodies, the community at large has not
been consulted. However. the community at
large can do nothing and should do nothing but
abide by the plan of action decided upon yester.
day II no site ran besettled upon BY the com
'nercial bodies, there can he no general unity Of
opinion and that being the case, tle rest of the
city should agree in the determination to let
Encle Sam settle it.

CUES well for final success. The Portland Telc
gram says editorially:
Commercially speaking, We actually

These the beginnings of the futures they
have anticipated the opening of the canal. and in
fact have little nothing to do with that moment
Gus event They adjunctive preliminaries to the
greater trade through the canal ulti-

optimism to the Nth power"
Such belief in the future deserves encourage

WHAT. HAPPENED TO BENTON

The official report of British Consul Perez
val on the killing of William s. Benton is con
sideraby more significant than appears from
the mere statement that the death was not
caused by pistol shots. Gen Villa and his Assoc
GATES have eontended that Benton was arrested
md duly tried and sentenced to be executed. 1t
is not conceivable that if such were the ease he
would have been executed in any other way than
by shooting by a firing squad. The inference
that Benton was stabbed throws even more
loubt on Villas whole story than has already
attached to it. If it be proved, that Benton was
murdered, Great Britain is in no mood to let the
incident pass.
