candidate for the place, is not stated
by Pacheco.
Only one more day remains for pc
titicns fer nomination to be filed for
either a county or territorial office.
A number of politicians have been
waiting to hear from ]. Lightfoot,
feeling that he would make another
race for city and county attorney.
But, according To Pacheco. they have
waited in vain, for he says Attorney

GRAspIEd TIE OPPORTUNITY

Directorgenera Dougherty and the Carnival
directors have proved themselves responsive to
public sentiment The Carnival will not be
dropped. Indeed, the whole incident should be
valuable, for il centers attention on the OppOr-
tunities now before Hawaii to secure more of
the world tourist traffic than the territory has
ever had.
The original plans for the Carnival must be
considerably changed but the director-general
has shown that he has originality of ideas and
ability to carry them out, and Hawaii is conf
dent that the fete next February will be worth
while. In the meantime, by all means the Pro
motion Committee and the Carnival directors
should turn attention to big advertising cam
paign to get the tourists who for a year or more
will probably be barred from the resorts of
Europe and Africa.

JIkdOIsM REPUDIAIED

That now-notorious cablegram from Japan
to the Nippu Jill turns out, just as this paper
IIophesied, to be faxed either wholly or in part
b Toxic.
There was just enough color to the story to
II1se Widespread uneasness in Hawaii. The
fact that the United States is endeavoring to
preserve the neutrality of China and guard the
integrity of the young republic lent some plau-
1ibiIity to the statement that a strong note on
the subject had been handed to Japan. But the
rest Of the story-that Japan had been threat
ened with the Atlantic heet-was so prepos
ferrous as to discredit the entire message.
This yarn, hatched in the irresponsible brain
Of some jingoist in Toxic is typical of what
Hawaii may expect from time to time during
the European war There are enough evil mis-
chiefmakers in Japan, and they shout loud
enough often to overwhelm the less noisy but
greatly more influential body of earnest and
publicspirited statesmen who desire only peace
Count Okuma knows that there is nothing
to be gained if Japan breaks with the Unit
ed States and he knows much better than most
neople that Japan is in no position for war
With the United States. The Japanese govern
ment is quite aware of the extreme desirability
Of friendship with Uncle Sam.
On the American side of the Pacific there
exists no popular feeling that calls for even
tension in the mutual relations. Nor does there
exist q diplomatic situation that would call for
hostile pressure upon Japan by President VIII
eon. Congress or the American ambassador.
The administration must recognize-and in fact
las recognized obligation upon Japan to
land nv her ally, Great Britain That obliga-
t;an NAV be fulfilled without impairing the in
s.,.r,;tv Of China, and in safeguarding China,
the T1nited States will certainly have the as

Japan.

lete has been doing little hitting Of
late. In his first two efforts yesterday
he was soft. He came up in the fifth
with Good on second and steamed a
single to left, taIlying the run. Two
we're out at the time.
Zim hadn't been on base for so
long that he decided to re-establish
relations with the sacks. He sWiped
second and went to third on Kill
fer's bad throw. Having little faith
in Williams, Zim proceeded to steal
home. He might have been out, but
KiIIifer dropped the ball. Mr.. Zim-
norman stops at nothing when he
gets started. He also started the
eighth-inning rally with single. He
came up again in the same inning but
rolled out. He could have hit, but it
was getting late.
1t becomes necessary to record the
fact that Red COTTiden has not filled
the bill at shortstop. He was hOisted
in the eighth inning to let Schultz
roll a grounder to Luderus which
scored Tim; as he had been batting
Tuulely all afternoon. heaung play
ed short in the ninth but had nothing
to do.
Red has been a weakIing in the
field. He messed one groundeT yes
terday that allowed the Phils to count
when the side should have been re-
tired. There was nothing difficult
about the hit apparently. It went
straight at the Blazer, but those
straight ones are. just the brand that
worry CoTriden. He and Sweeney also
crossed their wires on a steal and
let one of Bresnahan's throws roll to
the field.
Corriden's porous fielding has been
responsible for the loss of several
games in the past, but O'Day kept
him at work, figuring that some hit
ting was needed because Of the weak

himself cynical smile. He is a hero
because Murphy fired him. If he had
remained at the head of the local club
he would probably be panned daily by
the same gents who give him the well
come home today.
Next to picking the pocket of re-
porter we know of no enterprise
which offers less return for the en-
ergy expended than attempting to
stop R. Bresnahan and T. Leach when
the old settlers decide a flock of runs
would be handy things to have
around.
1t simply can't be done. They may
stand hitched for several innings, but
sooner or later they are bound to
break out and stamp deep gashes in
the home plate with their glistening
spikes. Roger, because of his superior
weight advantages, can cut a deeper
cash than Leach.
For seven innings yesterday the
Cubs and Phils waded through pas
time that was exceedingly bushy. Our
gang tried in every way to force the
game on the visitors, but DoOin's men
refused the gift. Every time they mad
a chance they insisted on kicking the
battle back to the7CUbs.
This ingratitude riled the home
folks, so in the eighth inning they
rose up and partook of one of their
copyrighted five-run batting rallies.
A hit batsman, sacrifice, two. sim
giles, a double and home run we're
used compiling the five counts. Leach
whaIed the fOur-baggsr, and two men
we're on the paths at the time. Good
got a double, but it did not figure in
the scoring.
Safer, Zim and Bresnahan each got
two hits. One of ViC's was a homer
following a pass in the first inning,
and Roger soaked a futile double. In
the fourth inning Mr.. BTesnahan aC-
tuaIly failed to hit safely or take a

There are many temperance workers who de-

1t cannot be otherwise than most encouraging to

all these years to younger shoulders Yet in this

or respite.

independence Day

There is something about the Fourth of July
which stamps it different from all other holidays
in America and everywhere else No other day has
quite its significance.
Other nations have their holiday observance but
there IS nothing abroad like the Fourth. Doubtless
the reason for all of this is that the Fourth celebrates
not only the birthday of nation-the best and great
est OF all on EARTH past and present-but it marks al
SO the beginning of era, the era of liberty and
equality.
Americans have liberty and equality than
any other nation We have here no title or rank no
lords or ladies' king queen no arstocracy no
vested privileges. We have free and untrammeled
freedom OF conscience, liberty of worship, universal
ballot trial by jury and thousand other inestmable
privileges which distinguish the true republic from
the monarchy.
The true citizen appreciates these blessings and
wisely uses them. He knows at what great cost they
were purchased and how fundamental they are But
he knows, too that true liberty is safeguarded only
by refraining from msusing abusing it. He real
ICES that retain liberty only by giving up portion
of it. So we have society we'll organized each mem
whenever that liberty interferes with someone's else
liberty or happiness.
There are however, many in America who have
not that sort of conception of what liberty means
These the sort who go about Boosting about their
personal liberty" They prate much of their Fright"
to do as they please, but never hears them say
anything about their corresponding responsibility

Governor H. d. Hatfield, of West Virginia, de-
clares the Prohibition law will be enforced. Here is
paragraph from recent statement which he issued:
II want to give ample warning that only in cases
where life death may be at stake, will the power
of pardon parole be exercised. Where persons
have been convicted for violating the Prohibition law
