KANIHO ATTACKS
DEAD Man; SON
DEFENDS MEMORY
Lawrence Kaleiopu Protests
Against Political Speech by
Democratic Candidate

Defending the memory OF MS 1atler
the late A. s. Kalsiopu. against the
abusive and offensive attacks of H. NJ
Kaniho, Democratic candidate for the
house, Lawrence Kaleiopu, son of the
dead man, has written the following
letter to the Star-Bulletin:
Honolulu, T. H, Oct q, 1914.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: | had the pleasure, last night, OF
hearing the Honorable Mr.. Kaniho ad
dress the voters of School and Liiiha
streets on various issues Of the
campaign. .~.%, -: =.
He dealt, considerably at length
on certain measures alleged to have
been introduced by Mr.. Mahoe in the
legislature. Paramount among these
was one dealing with the examination
of school children by the government
physician, and the erstwhile candidate
for the house waxed so eloquent on
this point that l felt myself trans
ported into ages past, when Cicero
held the forum at Rome. ~
Not contented with having engaged
the living. the valiant Mr.. Kaniho next
proceeded to attack the memory of my
father. the late A. 8. Kaleiopu. He
took my departed father to task for
having aided Mr.. Mahoe In the al

and girls. - = -

Rout of an Army.

The nation lives! Rock Island arsenal
has been saved! The place will not be
seized! Arms. accouterments and ammu-
milton stored there will not be looted to
equip an army of 10000 men bent on
revolution against the government Of the
United States. The march against Wash
ington has been halted. Gen. Keliey's
army has struck a snag at Sacramento.

to have rounded up the routed iegione

the Potomac-seize an arsenal on the way
and start revolution for diversion

Action Against Fake Auctions.

The fake auction, which has long been
a scandal in Washington, will be sup
pressed by the regulations adopted by
the Commissioners, which provide that
every licensed auctioneer shall give
bond in the sum of 5000, that no auc-
tioneer shall sell jewelry, diamonds,
watches, gold or silverware or gold or
silver-plated ware after the hour of $50
pm, and that no auctioneer shall en-
ploy any person for the purpose OF bid
ding up the price OF the article to be sold
with no intention of purchasing it. The
fake auction, conducted. as rule, by
itinerant auctionesrs, should have long
ago been put under the ban of the law.
It has been misleading to large num-
Der of gulltble persons and an injustice to
legitimate business and good-faith auc-
tons. The regulations adopted by the
Commissioners will probably correct an
abuse against which there has been fire.

Value of the Fire Drill.

The life-saving value Of the fire drill
we'll done has been proved a number
Of times within the last few days in
schools, factories and other places where
human beings are gathered together. Its
usefulness was proved in the fire at ST.
Cecilia's Academy in this city. Many
stories have been published of the calm
ness and promptitude with which 80
young women and fifty instructors left
the blazing building of Wellesley College.
II is reported that the fire drill worked
so smoothly on that occasion that there
was little excitement and no suggestion
Of panic. Recently there was factory
fire in Newark and the inmates Of the
building, who had been drilled for just
such an emergency, marched quickly and
quietly to safety. In connection with fire
drills, which are, it is believed, frequently
and systematically practiced in the pub
lie schools of most cities, may be con-

What is the value of the President
victory? Mayor Bell Of Indianapolis. a

prove a calamity to the party in the
state.
If he is right the blow will fall On
Mr.. Shively, who was Endorsed by the
convention for reelection, and will be

In the campaign.
But will the democrats Of Indiana take
the primary plank seriously? If they are
opposed to the policy, as Mayor Bell de-
clares, may they not kiss it off, as
many of their brethren in other states are
now doing certain planks OF the Balti-
more platform? May they not regard it
as merely molasses, spread for the pur-
pose of catching votes among the Presi-
dents friends?
But the democrats have no monopoly Of
trouble. They cannot be proceeded
against under the Sherman law on that
score. The row between the republicans
and the bull moosers continues, and
should be worth something to the demo-
Gratis on election day.
Evidently Indiana this year will be the
scene Of struggle which will recall old
struggles. In the days when Morton and
Hendricks were pitted against each other,
and even later, the vote in the state was
close. and. the winner earned all he got

lshed not many days ago in the organ
of the American Society for Fire Proven
ton that every public school building in
New York city was FIRE trap. The
press Of that city takes the charges seri-
ously and calls for their prompt and
thorough investigation by the board OF
education. Building regulations should
be strict as applied to all buildings hous-
Ing people in large numbers, but es-
pecially strict as applied to school build

this country toward fireproof construc-

schools and factories, the fire drill has
repeatedly proved its worth.

Lincoln Highway.
From the Baltimore Star.

sociation of Baltimore is doing the right
thing in organizing a protest against the
tentative proposal to construct q Lincoln
Highways highway to stretch from
ocean to ocean-which would not touch
either the National Capital or the city OF
Baltimore. Such a Lincoln highway as
Is proposed would be a misnomer and. an
absurdity. Lincoln was born In Kentucky
and reared In Illinois. but his personality
as national figure and his patriotic serv-
ice will always be identified with the Ma
tional Capital. The Lincoln highway
should begin at Washington. reach up to
Baltimore and be constructed thence to
Gettysburg. reaching westward from the
battlefield park.

Reflection Before Action.

The decision Of the House District
committee, at the instance of Repre-
sentative w!nslpw. that 1t favors in.
preceding action upon proposals to
overthrow the act Of 1873, is heartily
appreciated by this community. All
that Washington asks Is that the truth
shall be ascertained by an unbiased
commission.
The report approving the Johnson-Prouty
proposition to destroy in effect the act Of
1878. signed by eight members OF the
committee. Is based upon statements
upon which Washington joins issue and
asks the thoughtful consideration and
judicial Judgment Of some impartial tri-
bunal:
l. That Washington's realty in 1912,
when measured by the prevailing Anleri-
can standards. was underassessed over
500 10000 and would have been fairly
assessed at more than s744, 900 600. Wash
ington eontradiets natly this statement.
1t points to the evidence before the
George subcommittee to show that this
figure is not an assessment by anybody
and is merely the generalization. the esti-
mate, the guesswork Of one man, in
spired by sinsie-tax theories to excessive
values.
This estimate of the value of the taxed
fraction Of Washipgton's realty fixes it as
worth twice as much as the whole Of
2aS. 1874 greater population; at nearly S45.-
100000 more than Baltimore and Minne-
apolis combined: at nearly as much as
Baltimore and Cincinnati combined: at
as the whole of New Orleans: and over
100000 more than New Orleans, St.
Paul and Louisville combined. Washing
ton asks that before the House takes ac-
ton based upon belief in the accuracy
of the s744, 10000 estimate It may have
the opportunity to demonstrate to some
impartial tribunal that the figures are
preposterous.
realty and personally taxable values
can raise without hardship a tax levy
of sl4s47,2sL75, and needs no national
cooperation whatever In the work of
capital maintenance and development
This tax levy proposed for resource
less Washington is greater than that
raised in 1912 by st. Louis, or Cleve-
land or Baltimore or Detroit, or Buffalo
or San Francisco. more than Milwaukee
and Cincinnati combined. and nearly
three times the total tax levy of New
Orleans.
Washington welcomes the suggestion
that some or any impartial tribunal
will examine these figures before the
House takes action based upon them.

The Fiction Crooks.

Perhaps we might forgive the crooks
For all their crooked ways.
If they would not keep writing books
Or coming out in plays.
II they would not refer to men
Who simply toll as "rubes,"
And ridicule US now and then
AS "ginks'' and guys" and "boobs.
But it is hard to hear them brag
And make a gleeful fuss
About the way they cop the swag
From boneheads such as US.
We shall not give them our applause,
AS for our coin they clutch.
We disapprove of them because
They always talk too much!

America and Great Britain.

| Twenty years ago Ambassador Bayard
described his countrymen to a British
audience as turbulent" At that time
Johnny Bull was disposed to accept the
description. We were standing up for
Venezuela in her controversy with Great
Britain stoutly, and the President OF the
United States was voicing the national
sentiment in unmistakable terms.
| Today Ambassador Page in an address
| in London gives US the character Of an
amis lie people. full of politeness and con-
cession.
ConKress was stirred by Mr.. Bayard's
words. as it now is by Mr.. Pages. It
| objected to the one Characterization as
strongly as it does today to the other.
The truth. as usual, lies between two
extremes Neither turbulent nor spine

WINGED Of their rights assert them, and

| Within the past quarter century mat
tiers between America and Great Britain
| have improved considerably. Twisting
| the lions tall was for long time a
sort of stock performance in our politics.
The champion 'twister" got the most
votes, and some politicians became art
lists in that line. Visiting knglishmen
used to complain, and seek explanations
Of the spirit.
Then the spirit died down, and less was
said in this country offensive to Great
Britain, and less in Great Britain often

Bayard had probably the smallest meas
ure of turbulence in his own compost
ton. Not at all lacking in courage or
frmness-a turbulent man may lack
| both-he was one of our most finished
products as respected patience, concilia-
| ton and all proper ceremony. His long
service in the Senate had developed all
| the best qualities of a strong personality.
There was something contradictory,
therefore, which the British public failed
to see or to accept in the man and his
theme. How had 1t come to pass, they
might have asked themselves, that such
a man had risen to such height by the
favor of a turbulent people, and was now
holding their commission in their leading
diplomatic post? Why did not he him
self partake of what he was describing
as an American characteristic?
That speech was Mr.. Bayards one
blunder while abroad, but did neither
| him nor his country any permanent
harm. A turbulent people would have
| insisted on his retirement from Office
| whereas we contented ourselves with a
formal protest, and let the episode 80 at
