Is JOE FERN SAFE?

1t is not an unusual thing to hear among a
group of men discussing the political situation
this comment: ~.
well, Joe Fern is honest and he is safe. I
know what he will do.if he gets back as mayor
He will be a curiosity, of course, but. then he
won't do any harm. !" = ~ I'LL
The political events of the last three weeks
should have pretty thoroughly dispelled such
an idea as this from the minds of voters who
think for themselves and who know what is
happening around the city hall nowadays.
Joe Fern is the backbone of the system that
that is now being put to the most desperate use
to reflect the supervisors and the mayor. A
good precinct campaigner, personally hkable
enough, shrewd in local politics, it has been
Joe Fern who for years has exemplifed the
patronage system in municipal affairs. Fern
is a very active and essential part of the
present Democratic machine His encourage
ment and aid has helped to "put over" the
rotten system now being used on the roads to
tie up 800 votes to the Democratic ticket
eFH constant use VI nunlcIpdI dulos lor CAM
paign purposes is only an indication of his gen
eral attitude that the mayors office is to be
used for petty, partisan politics.
Yes, Joe Fern is good fellow, but the fact
that he is not only deep in a prohigate system
Of vote getting but one of the mainsprings of
that system ought to convince the voters that
though Joe is personally honest his misuse
and non-use of the mayoralty does not make
him particularly q safe man for mayor

LANES STAND.

John G.. Lane Is declaration upon the front
age-tax, at meeting of interested citizens
taxpayers-in Manoa last night constitutes a
manly stand and one that will be generally APP
preciafed IN the Fourth district: -
lane declares himself ready to abide by the
law passed by the Legislature of 1913 and give
the local Improvement or so-called frontage4tax
law thorough trial in those sections of the
city where the property owners desire It
tried. g am standing squarely on the Repub-
lican platform and that is part of the plat
form, = he said
J, Honolulu cannot ask any more than thor
ough trial of the local improvement system.
It's advocates desire nothing more, for they are
convinced that thorough trial will bring it
into general favor. And IN saying that the sys-
tenn viii be applied where the people wish it
applied, Mr.. Lane touched the very core of the
matter. The basic principle of the local inn
plan is that before it becomes opera
tive petition signed by so per cent Of the af-
fected property owners must be filed in favor
of the project.
IF this plan ever gets fair trial In Homo
lulu, there need be little fear that some sections
will have to pay for their Improvements while
some will help themselves from the general
funds. All of the sections will be improved
under the frontage tax plan or not at all.
Lanes declaration on the eve of election re-
quired some backbone in view of the fierce and
unprincipled fight that the Democrats are di-
recting against any Republican candidate who
says that he will help enforce the laws. 1t
anything were needed to insure Lanes election

A UNIQUE IDEA FOR @HEWsPAPER
DAY."

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir:-Newspaper Day" Is a splen-
did idea, tried out with success on
the mainland. Let Hawaii add some
thing original; we have two great
dailies and two great boosting organi-
nations; why not have the promotion
committee produce and edit one Of
these journals on Newspaper Day
and the Ad Club the other? Both or
carnations believe in advertising Ha-
iwaii, rather than their own organiza-
tons. and there would be added the
friendly zest of rivalry as to which
would produce the most attractive and
alluring output. The promotion conn
.mittee has five members, the Ad Club
700. so that necessarily the boosting
of Hawaii will be approached from
different angles. and the great effects
should be produced As the promo
ton committee merely wishes to ad-
yertise Hawaii, / suggest this little
friendly rivalry with the 700 enthusi-
astic advertisers OF the city, believing
that 1t will produce results and incite
ambition. at the same time giving the
young blood OF the town chance to
get in for a little practise work tn
promotion, and let us give the young
men chance.
Sincerely yours,
Al. II. FORD.

THE FIGHT IS DESPERATE.

Let no Republican make a mistake-the
Democrats of Oahu are not going to be tameiy

Honolulu has never seen more far-reaching
and desperate attempt to swing an election
than the Democratic managers are making in
these closing weeks. Of the campaign. They
are no. only fighting desperately, they are
fighting together and fighting with effect They
have systematized the misuse of road funds to
d fine point They have brought the use Of
oad-laborers and other municipal employees to
fine art The road funds are sanandered to
build up huge body of city employees. The
city employees are ordered here and there,
nlassed and deployed, like soldiers on the bat
tle3ield. Democratic meetings are packed
with paid runners and with municipal employees
whose working day is cut short SO they may do
politics and whose presence at the meet
ings is assured by orders from headquarters

pal autos Republican meetings are broken up
when possibles for instance, at Kalihi night or
two aro the Democrats sent free busses to the
scene IN an effort to get the audience to take 2
free ride to the Democratic meetings.
1t is good caDapaigning of sort. !.

their November vote. The Republican

IN September primaries, | believe It is
always possible to give Honolulu such
a government as the city should have
and really wants.

On Saturday next, October 31st, the
city and county will have to pay its

are employed by the month, which

$4,000. These must be paid from the

Road laberers will be paid from the

In these DAYS when there

In these days when there are so
many cheap worthless plays, offer
ed the public, it is no wonder peo-
pie hesitate before paying two dol
lars for ticket to see a play of
questionable merit. Such is not the
case with "Life's Shop Window"
which will be seen at the Leon opera
house on January Sth. This play
proved to be the strongest attraction
and gave the best satisfaction of all
the new plays presented last season.
1t holds the record for business in
almost every city in the United
States. 1t is story of every day
life, which thrills in a manner almost
brutal at times, but with such deli
cacy as. not to offend the most criti-
cal. The company appearing here is
composed of actors whose names
stand for thei hest. The scenic pro-
Fdnction is complete and with all it
is the best attraction ever offered
here at popular prices.
