POLICE WOMEN AND WASHERS.

Mrs. Alice stebbins Wells. pioneer police

yesterday that If Richmond would appoint police,
women il would do away with the Broad stree,

THE HOME FOR GIRLS.

Although the people of Bon Air have our deep
est sympathy IN their efforts TO have the general
assembly do away with the home for way
ward girls In their community. the general a.
sembly must remember thai some provision must
be made for these girls. The presence OF such
an institution in any community is unfortunate.
and almost any community will object to the
establishment Of ouch an institution. but the girls
have 10 be cared for.
The general assembly and public must remem'
ber that although these girls menace to
the community in which they ltve it is not their
fault Tests were made of their mentality a
short time ago. and by scientific test 1t was
demonstrated that only very small percentage
OF them mentally normal. They need care
and protection just as do the insane In our
asyums, and the general assembly must make
provision for them.
The question of the OF the insane, feeble
minded, and mentally Incompetent is which
the general assembly will have TO handle with
care. No false economic plans should be con-
sidered The question is too serious for lack of
consideration. The cost to the State OF its
the full and complete consideration of the gen
eral assembly.
There Is measure before the general assembly
now providing for investigation into the con.
ditions Of Virginia in regard to the mentally in
competent The passage Of this bill will enable
the board OF charities and corrections to de-
termine fully what conditions are and the next
general assembly will be In position to handle
the question The legislature should adopt this
measure. 1t is time that conditions were made
clear and Virginia should not grudge the small
amount asked for by the board OF charities and
correction.
In the meantime some provision has to be
made for the mentally incompetent OF which we
know, and the girls In the Bon Air home are the
first to be considered.

With the State Press
A Commcndable Change OF Heart.

We note with interest hut without surprise
that the Richmond Times Dispatch In comment
ing a few days ago upon the Introduction of a
bill in the general assembly proposing to pro-
hibit the sale of ntoxcsnts on the grounds
wherein agricultural fairs exhibitions are be-
ing had, commended the pro osed law and ad-
vocated its passage. 1t generally known
that the same paper has always advocated the
extension of license to the State Fair association
at Richmond, but at that time there was no way
of enforcing the strong public sentiment when
opposed such sale the grounds Now. how
ever, when there is a strong likelihood and
practical certainty that such statute will be
enacted contemporary has suddenly real
lied the improperly of such sales OF intoxicants
fair ground and impressively urges the
prospective law. Whatever has operated to
bring about this changed view, glad TO
note It, though our contemporary con-
trlbuted none of the impetus to the demand for
this particular prohihitive statute. Whatever
may be ones view of licensing the sale of IN
toxicants at proper times and places and under
adequate surveillance. there but few not
Iirectly interested who will attempt to justify
such sales at fair ground.-Danville Register.

Richmond yirginian:

Editor Of The Richmond virgtnian:
Sir,--The excellent reports OF Legislative pro-

tire VIII be no more valuable asset to our cause
than good newspaper organ. This is not a
suggestion TO boycott any paper. nor Is 1t written

STORM CAUSES :.
$4,000 Loss
At KlJHIO BAY
c. R. Forbes Makes Report of
Damage at Meeting of Har-
Dor Commissioners Today

A total OF $4,000 for repairs to the
new Kuhio Bay wharf at Hilo must
be spent as result of the big storm
which swept that harbor October %.
SUCH was the report made 10 the
board OF harboT commissioners by
Chairman c. X. Forbes this morning.
A portion of this amount, or about
$4,000. should be utilized at once, he
stated, to put 1t in better condition be-
fore another severe storm increases
the damage to two or three times the
present amount.
To make this repair the entire bal
ance in the wharf repair fund for the
Big Island. little more than $4,000,
must be used, said the chairman, and
to obtain money for the remainder OF
the work will have to be included in
the contract for the wharf shed
Chairman Forbes found that in adj
dition to the damage from tine big
storm, considerable rayage has been
made on the wooden pfling by ants.
He has recommended that many sof
these be replaced by concrete piles.
The board authorized him TO purchase
a pump and small engine with which
piling on the wharyes can be sprayed
frequently with creosote mixture
that will kill the ants. This outfit
will be used principally on the Homo
lulu piers. ~..... ~

FAR AWAY JAPAN
John Stuart Happer of Kobe Is
First to Speak in New Lunch
Room of Organization

John Stuart Happier CT Kobe chris
tened the new lunch room or the
Commercial Club this noon with a
monday talk On Japan. Mr.. Happier
speaks from an experience of 20 years
residence in the Orient, where he has
represented the Standard Oil Com
pany and large trading concerns.
He introduced bis talk with the
statement that he thought any man
who has lived 20 years In country
and makes, his living there should al
ways be a booster for that country,
and he could be this with good grace
in his reference to Japan.
He spoke of the high standard of
the Japanese business men of the
present day and the development OF
the trade commerce and especially the
communications Of Japan. The day
had been when the high grade men OF
Japan were not merchants. Times
had changed and mercantile pursuits
are attracting the bets brain and
character of the country.
Referring to the Japan OF war Ma.
Happier stated that the war with Chi
ma was hardly noticeable in Japan.
The war with Russia was quite diff
ferent This was popular war be-
cause 1t was regarded by all as a
fight for existence. The courage of the
Japanese was to be expected. What
interested him especially was the Ca
paeity, of the Japanese when nodded
into fighting unit to be always on
time, and where he was needed at the
exact time. II showed efficient train
ing and an adaptabilIty to the necessi-
ties Of the situation. -~.--, =. .. .
As for the present war Japan hau
gone into it to pay back the debt of
some years ago when an ultimatum of
European powers had forced her into
action she had not planned. Japan's
treatment of the Germans now in ia
pan was exemplary. Not only were
the German residents notified that
they would not be molested in then
regular business, but further that they
would be given police protection if
the excitement OF the hour led to un-
toward acts by tkoughtless citizens.
AS for the future and any danger CT
