Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir: wish to compliment you or
whoever is responsible for tha: beau,
titul Hawaii-Panama edition supple

the magazine is in the fact that it
is a most complete resume of Hawaii

and at the same time does not SAVIOR

body in this city should have a copy
of the work and should send a copy

There is no doubt in the world but
the compiling of such work was an
expensive undertaking, and, as far AS

Honolulu would be interested IN knowing
just who is responsible for this ''knocking'' OF
the trip to the Volcano. .4
Several of the big league ball-players were
asked who told them the trip was not worth
taking. They seemed unable to remember
their informants. Others of the visiting team
said that they knew the trip would be fine, but
they could have just as good time in Homo
lulu.
There may be few misguided, short-sigllted
and selfish people in Honolulu who "knock'
the Volcano trip or the Haleakala trip on the
theory that all the tourists money should be
spent in Honolulu, but happily these knockers
are few And they are less and less willing to
do their nasty knocking openly.
1t would be of interest for the Promotion
Committee to run down some of these stories
of people who say they were told not to visit
the NoIcano--to find out who is giving this
selfish advice, and to say something emphatic
about it. s ~ ....

there was nothing to see and there had been
nothing but rain in Hilo for a couple OF
months. This is the reason, say members
OF the famous national baseball team who

Roosevelt BOssfsm.
Even Mr.. Roosevelt cannot escape
the frailties of human nature. I ex-
ercised my privilege as a Republican
and as a Republican United States
senator to use my own judgment as to
what course 1 should follow in the
presidential contest of that year. Mr..
Roosevelt had assured me in the most
positive terms that his ambition had
been fully satisfied and that under no
circumstances would he ever be q
candidate again for the presidency
He assured many members of the
United States senate and prominent
Republicans from all over the country
to the same effect. In the Republican
national convention, Mr.. Roosevelt al
no time had a majority of the conven-
ton. 1 cannot, in the limits Of this
statement, go into details as / would
like to do. 1t is sufficient to say that
the rules under which the convention
acted regarding delegates, and all
other matters of procedure were pre-
cisely the rules which Mr.. Roosevelt
had insisted on in the national con-
vention of 1908.
ct will be recalled that Mr.. Roose-
welt had absolutely named Mr.. Taft
for the presidency. Whether Mr.
Roosevelt considered this an act OF
bossism or not, do not know. But
| to me at the time, it seemed like the
most offensive act of bossism that
could be perpetrated in American pol
iticS.''

conditions of the working gtri. TINS
laundry works the girls 81 hours q
week-nine hours a day. But on Mon
days and Tuesdays, the girls work long

manager, lies in the fact that too
many society women send their linens

insist on its return Tuesday. All ef-
forts to induce them to change wash
days have failed. So the Kansas work

women have expressed much concern

Shifted Disguised Parole Honor
to Fellow Convict.
HE HAS 4 RECORD FOR CRIME

Governor Hodges Received Let

That old adage about honor among

for John Doe No. IL. But John Doe

fused to be guilty Of double stealing
when the liberty of fellow prisoner
was at stake.
In the penitentiary are a number Of
men who have refused to give their
real names. They are listed on the
are about 20 such men in the prison
and John Doe No. 10 and John Doe No.
IL occupy adjoining cells and work to-
gether in the prison mines. For Ii
years John Doe No. 10 has been in the
Kansas penitentiary. He has a record
the state convicts. and it is probable
that he may spend several more years
at Lansing.
John Doe No. II. however, il a more
model prisoner. w. A. Harmon, former
superintendent OF prison construction.
has urged a parole for the man. The
man for whom Harmon sought q parole
was an efficient workman during the
rebuilding Of the prison Irvine plant.
But in writing to Governor Hodges
about the case, Harmon referred to
John Doe No. 10 instead Of John Doe
No. IL.
Wrote to Governor.
The other day Governor Hodges wrote
to John Doe No. 10 stating that he had
received a very encouraging letter in
his behalf, and that his application for
parole would receive the earliest atten-
ton and most serious consideration.
This week the governor received a let.
ter from John Doe No. 10. The man
was granted special permission to write
to the governor, as he had already
overdrawn on his letter writing privi-
lege. The letter explained that per-
haps the governor had made a mistake
in the identity of the man he considered
helping.
IT don't want to get parole under
false pretenses," said the man who had
hidden his identity under the title OF
John Doe No. 10. II never worked for

claims for clemency on this SO will ask

The real names of the two men are
not known. The Harmon letter will
probably land John Doe No. II a parole.
And at the statehouse today there is
vague suspicion that John Doe No.
10 will not be forgotten for his display
of honesty in refusing to take advan-
tage Of clemency intended for another
man.
