Instead Of sending a military COM
pany to Jefferson county to protect
three negro brutes while being tried
for horribly numbering and then out
raging a respected white woman
Governor Slaton suggested to the
presiding judge that a change of
venue be ordered, which was done,
and the trial will be held in Fulton
county. The handling of this mat
ter in a way to prevent lynching,
or possibly the killing of good citi-
zens by the militia, is another tribute
to the rare common-sense and good
Judgment Of the governor.

Mr.. John Lind, special envoy to
Mexico, has returned to the United
States. Why he shouldn't have done

it is possible that Mr.. Lind's presence

been Of value to the administration
at Washington, but if so it has been
kept a profound secret.

Especial Star-Bullctin CORRESPONDENCE
FORT SKATER, Aug. 22.--Apropos
CT the recent agitation by friends of

be done for the enlisted man while in
Honolulu" the below letter has been
referred to the various company COM
manders at the army posts for an ex.
press'cD If the views of their men and

Sir.-At a recent meeting of the ter
Titorial affairs committee of the Cham
Der of Commerce Of honolulu, there
was under discussion the question OF
better providing for the soldiers when
they leave their posts and become tenn.
porary visitors in Honolulu. You no
doubt have observed discussions on
this subject through the local press.
The question is large one and in.
wolves much thought. The territorial
affairs committee IL heartily In sympa-
thy with any plan which WILL to a
greater extent, show our appreciation
of the soldier and which viii provide
him while In Honolulu with greater
measure Of comfort than has been Of
fered heretofore. What this comfort
viii be, can be and should be, are
questions which have arisen and which
are far from being solved. The COM
mittee feels that before anything is
done. expressions Of opinion should
be asked for from the soldiers and to
that end am directed to address YOU
and through you the men, for their
ideas. so that we may be In a posi-
ton to outline some definite plan.
This committee and the Chamber
of Commerce Of Honolulu has the
welfare of the soldier at heart. but
we do net want to make possible
mistake of attempting to provide him
something that he would not. want,
that Is to saw. provide him something
and then find cut later that II would
have been better to provide him some.

U. S. WILL BUILD
100 SUBMARINES
IN NEAR FUTURE

Frederick Brown Whitney. at one
time clerk of the naval affairs commit.
tee of the house of representatives,
addressing the Bridgeport Comm
Board of Trade recently said that
Secretary Of the Navy Daniels has
formally ordered the construction Of
the submarine torpedo boat LIS at the
Portsmouth (N. H. navy yard, thereby
inaugurating a policy Of building SUBJ
marines In navy yard which is OF
far-reaching naval possibilities and of
consequence to the skilled mechanics
at the navy yards at Boston. New
York. Philadelphia, Norfolk. Charles
ton. New Osleans, Mare Island and Pu-
get Sound, where 1t is not improbable
eventually that many submarines will
be constructed to meet the growing
demand for sufficient craft Of this
character. Secretary Daniels stated
before the house naval committee that
Il was the recommendation of the gen.
eral board, of which Admiral George
Dewey Is the presiding officer, that
at least 100 more submarine boats
shcnld be built" .s. II
The present day submarine costs
about half million dollars to build
and costs to maintain yearly about
s22,500. The yearly maintenance cost
cf battleship averages sS04.000. In
the last quarter Of century the Unit.
ed States has appropriated about $685..
100000 for battleships and about $25,.
100000 for submarines.
A statement was given OF the sub.
marines built or building bv foreign
governments, which shows that II the
United States should adopt the Euro
pean policy OF defensive protection of
its continental water boundaries by
means OF submarines upon the same
ratio per mile Of water frontier as
does England and France. the United
States would be obliged to lay down
In a single year at least 10 subma-
rines to catch up with England and
$50 to equal France. This does not In
clude these required for the outlying
possessions Of the United States.

Citizens Of Wamea Ready to Join Sodery but Ad-
tan Generals Office Unable to Give Necessary Authori-
zation Until Legislature Mees-Goden Opportunity Slip
ping

to hand in due course, and contents
noted.
II is highly desirable that an infantry
company of the National Guard be or
gained on the Island of Kausi. Prior
to such organization the following con-
ditions will have to be met:
a. An enlisted strength OF 65, with
three officers. making total OF 6S.
of G. 81. War Department. July 2, 1914.
b. Provision for the proper storage
of arms, equipment etc.
-, Note is made Of your reference
to Mr. Bertram. the manager of the
Waimea Machine Shop. who has been
recommended to this Office by Lieut..
p. NJ. Smoot.
IS. The financial aspect of the or
ganiZation OF a company at Waimea Is
the feature which gives this Office the
greatest concern, in this, that the ap-
preparations for the biennial period
made by the last legislature were in.
sufficient for the purposes OF the guard
as a nine-company organization. but In
response to the requirement of the war
department with reference to the regi-
mental organization and its desire that
the guard be increased to a i2-eompany
organization, three new companies
were organized in Honolulu, and We
are carrying a heavy load on slender
means and having a hard time - make
ends meet ~.
THE incoming legislature may pos.
sibly relieve this situation TO suca al
extent IS to provide funds for the or
ganization of the company you prcposr
to organize, or possibly your people
there MAY see their way clear to help
ing out in this matter. While the ma
tionaI guard of this territory has here
tofore been provided for solely BY tho
territory, 1t Is the general practice In
the states for counties to provide ar
mories prior to the organization OF
companies in the various counties, and
this Is offered merely as matter OF
information in case the people OF the
county OF Kauai care to take immedi-
ate action as a community. Anything
this ONCE can do to meet the situation
will be done, but unless some assist
ance is rendered financially, or proyis-
ion made to meet the expenses Of such
a company, the matter will have to
stand over until the incoming legis-
lature indicates It's pleasure in the mat
ter. In the meantime II would be we'll
to have everything prepared for a
rapid organization. so that you, With
this ONCE, may know the exact
conditions to be met
e. Any suggestions you may see Mt
to make will be appreciated by this
Office
IS. Kindly allow Mr.. Bertram 10 read
this letter, and advise with him In the
matter
