Letters
WAS He AsusEDa

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir: Why is il the people of Ho.
nolulu keep abusing Mr.. McCarn.
Even before lie arrived here noticed
little sayings about him. Who was
II that fought whisky In Tennessee,
at last to be rewarded by dry state?
The only reason ! can give for this
abuse is this: It is the whisky manu-.
facturer, the salo0nkeeper and the
CRATER that want him to be recalled
so they can get somebody here who
Is with them. Knowing Mr.. McCarn
as do, don't think he will resign
until he is recalled, and I don't think
We Tennesseeans are in the habit OF
running away because OF THE threats
of some people / don't think there
are many people in Honolulu that
would have laid on the ground while
somebody was kicking them. i also
noticed In your paper tonight an ar
ticle written by a Mr.. Ledger. which
4 think was rather more than abusive,
what call low down. and he should
not have asked for ii to be published
in your paper. But perhaps he is con.
nected with one OF the three fnstitui
tons which have named before.
Thanking you for your valuable
space, / am,
Respectfully yours.

The white carnation Is its symbol.
To the average man. the memory OF
his mother Is the whitest thing he
possesses, and the white carnation Is
q fitting emblem Of this memory.
There are two things which man Is
supposed to do on Mothers Day:
First. to wear a white carnation and

KENT AND HEARST

William Randolph Hearst does not care for
the theories of Congressman Militant Kent Of
tsalifornia, to all of which Congressman Kent re
ilciprocates with interest Mr. Hearst called ar
Kent a political hybrid. Then saIr. Kent said
this:
have heretofore been in ignorance as to the
Hearst definition Of n man who tries to place
lpublic welfare above partis.ilSlip and who is
TRYING to uphold the national honor and to pro.
mote sound economies The ltisfif animal that
would represent the Hearst policies of hatred and
noise has not yet been given a name If the world
were populated by William Hearsts and if the
sky were papered with his publications. there
would be scene OF sorlid selfishness made still
more intolerable by senseless clamor.'
All of which is a reminder to the people of Ha
waii that in the wider mainland spheres of p,,l
ties aud policies, men can do considerable calling
OF names, and still retain their hold ON their
tempers.

Trades Council Opposes Plan to Have High School
 Boys Work for Nothing.

The Pine Bluff Central Trades Council last night adopted resolutions which put the organization on recoro as being opposed to the proposition to have public school children compete with members of the buildings trades ir the erection of buildings m tnis city.
 The resolutions, which are self-ex' p.anatory, are as follows:
 "Whereas, it has been reported that there is movement started II the manual training department tue Pine Bluff High school, to teacf house carpentry to the students ( the school. and that the propositio is to take the students from tn school and build houses for any per sen who will furnish all building ma terial, all labor 70 be furnished by tn student body, free of cost, thus q priving men of trades of work or which they depend for a living for themselves and families;
 At recent meeting of the Carpen- ters' union this movement was stren. uously opposed, there being a large number of men of the building trades idle at the present time;
 Therefore, be it resolved, that the Pine Bluff Central Trades council as- sembled in regular session go on re- cord as being opposed to movement of this kind being taught outside of the school; but this resolution shall not be construed as opposing manual training in the public schools"
 The meeting last night of the coun. Gil was of considerable importance much work of a routine nature befne transacted. Reports were received from the organization committed which indicated that there is strong likelihood of the early organization in Pine Blnff of building trades council as we'll as of local of sheet metal workers.
