ARTISTS WITH
SHORT WEIGHTS
BUSY in HILO

Especial star Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, Oct. 26. Nhen one hears the
story that Sheriff Pua tells about shor;
weight artists in Hiio and the sur.
rounding districts, one wonders how il
is that all the vendors Of poi, grocer.
les, meats and other necessities OF
life are not already millionaires. And
one wonders how much real, hard earn
ed money one has handed over the
counters Of the people who have stolen
through their short weights.
In the sheriff's office is to be seen a
scale that has been used at certain
poi dealers shop for long time past.
II was away off ON its r.gister and, in
fact, did not weigh at all. The poi
used to be dumped on it as a bluff,
and the purchaser was robbed every
time.
That dozens of scales have been
brought to the police station in the
past few months is the statement OF
the sheriff. In every case the scales
had been tempered with. At the po
lice station the machines were tested,
corrected and sealed. The owners
have to pay for this work and then
take their scales away. In the opinion
of many people it would be far better

the town do not resort to any such

er people deal with.
When Expert Scaleman West was in

wise to the many tricks of dishonest
storekeepers. and with this knowledge
the local Inspector OF weights is able
to prove up any case he comes across.

JAPAN KEEPING

Nippon Government Keeps Up
System of Surveillance, Say
Passengers on Korea

That Japan Is exercising over for

owned by German capital, has been
suspended by the government and its
editor deported, according to the re-
ports. British capital became inter

A passenger on the Korea says that
the Japanese government Is directing
press censorship of the most rigid
kind. The foreign Office has stopped
the publication OF almost anything OF
local importance concerning the war.
For instance, the arrival Of the
British cruiser Newcastle and her
preparations for . voyage, presumably
against hostile German ship, was
excluded from the press absolutely.
Another Instance, which will be Of
local interest, is that the Nippon
Maru OF the r. K X. line is soon to
be back IN the service here, according
to indications, though no mention Of
II has come publicly from japan. The
Nippon was taken for transport pur-
