poINDExTER IS BACK,

Senator Poindexter of Washington did not
come to Hawaii with the congressional party,
though originally he was booked to do so. Per-
haps he changed his mind about this as the
Portland 0regonian hints he has done his poll
tics-with facile ease and rapidity.
The ,Oregonian ntimating that Poindexter
is important not as Poindexter but because he
is the lone Bull Moose in the upper house, de
voted along editorial to the Washington states
man, entitled, Sailing With the Wind. " 1t
comments:
During the first year of the Wilson admin
istration Senator Poindexter was a valued ally
of the Democrats, and when trouble arose in
the Democratic ranks in the senate over parti-
san legislation Senator Poindexter was counted
to offset the loss of one insurgent Democratic
vote. Repeatedly he made good in this respect.

THE BARNEs-RoosEvELT TRIAL.

That the Barnes Roosevelt libel suit has in
volved national politics far more than personal
controversy was recognized at the start OF the
trial in Syracuse n. Y. As the suit progressed
il became evident that both sides were endeay
oring to make political as well as personal
capital out of the various revelations
Members of,the congressional party who have
been visiting Hawaii were frankly interested
in this suit ON account of its political possibii
ties. Few of them saw ''much in it for Roose-
veIt He had little to, gain and much to lose
from the trial A verdict in his favor would
merely confirm very widespread newspaper
charges against Barnes, while a verdict in
Barnes favor would be blow indeed to the
militant leader of the hosts of Armageddon.
Judged from distance and mostly from
reading all sorts of newspaper reports, friendly
and unfriendly to the doughty colonel, it does
not seem that Roosevelt lhas shown up IN very
favorable light. His former relations with the
aRepubl particularly the New York
state part of it.. were close, personally and as a
learty leader; He took instructions from
Boss Plat and several lesser bosses. He
hobnobbed with Barnes himself. That, of
course, was in the old days before Barnes sup
ported Taft for. reelection, thus gaining the
colonel's ill-favor 1t has been conclusively
shown that Roosevelt worked very intimately
with some of the very men he has, since his
failure at Chicago in 1912, denounced We
hemently. 1t has been shown that at the game
of politics "you- scratch-my back aDd-I IL
scratch-yoursv sort-he played frequently,
skillfully and effectively. 1t has been shown
that as ..party regular" he was very regular.
OF course the colonel exercises an amazing
personal influence over a large following. Ha-
waii has men who think that Roosevelt can do
no wrong. Each revelation of this trial they
have deiantly declared to be in reality point
for the great Bull Mooser. But in the eyes of
the country at large we believe the libel suit
has hurt Roosevelt because it has shown his
very close connection in the past with the men
and the things he later branded as offensive and
undesirable. The skeletons dragged from musty
political closets will not 60 back into perma-
nent retirement. They will be kept ready for
temperance in 1916 to be ratified at the colonel
if he should show signs of becoming serious
factor in the next presidential race.

EVEN IN WAR TINE.

Even under the tremendous industrial strain
of wartime the Germany military government
in Belgium will not allow overriding hours of
work for women and children. In view of the
hesitation of the territorial Legislature. upon
the woman labor and child labor bills, the Bel
GUM situation is interesting.
General Won Kissing German governor of
Belgium, has completed and put into effect a
number of rules controlling the labor Of women
and children. The new rules permit children
between the ages of IA and 16, and women and
children between 16 and q, to work not longer
than. II hours day., There must be a rest
period of at least an hour and a half, and chill
dren under IA years old are not permitted to
work at all Women, regardless of age, and
children are not allowed to work in mines,
quarries, pits and the like Night work is for
hidden entirely. to women. The maximum
period of employment daily applies in house
holds as well as in factories, work shops and
restaurants. -,

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: While We are entertaining
congressional parties and other folks
and swat the fly. While We have
summer always with us, there are Ger.
tain seasons of the year when these
two pests hatch to an alarming ex-
tent, and that season IS now with us.
There is no questioning the good re.
suits of the campaign of activities
carried on against the mosquito a
couple of years ago. but we must not
sit back and think that the war waged
at that time was final. and that the
last mosquito was exterminated. Their
numbers have increased since last
year and they will be more numerous
next year unless there is sort Of
guerilla warfare carried on against
them all the time.
And while we are fighting the mos
quito let's get round turn on Mr..
Fly. That's the boy to be dreaded a
hundred fold more than the mosquito.
The breed of mosquito that we have
here is chiefly carrier Of discom-
fort, while the fly carries disease.
Nothing is too filthy for flies to walk
in. or to eat, and from filth they de-
light 10 drop Into babies milk and to
tramp over exposed foods.
There are some authorities who
hold that one out Of every five human
deaths is due to disease carried by
flies. With such a record before one
is it. not some inducefnent to get in
and swat the fly, or better still, pre-.
vent him ever getting to that stage
where he viii need swatting? 49,.
Any manner of garbage, refuse or
filth is a most ideal breeding place
for, flies. II is supposed that we
1some of us)s once in a while make
search for water-carTying cans and
old bottles to smash that we may pre-
vent the mosquito from developing
from the larval to the flying and bit
ing stage. and it would seem that at
such time 1t would be most oppor,
tune to keep an eye open for places
where the disease-carrying fly might
multiply by millions in one summer.
In getting after flies the prime re-
du;site is to keep every bit of refuse
or garbage which they can use as
food or which, can decay as tightly
covered as possible Do not dump
garbage in the open under any condi
tions. sr =" >si' = .. - T..
AS for the pesky mosquito, here are
a few precautions to be observed in
preventing the pest from Matching:
Spray standing water and wet pla
ces with mixture Of kerosene and
crude oil ~ -, -';.} j
Repeat the treatment with the mix
ture every ten days in warm weather,
or eftener If heavy rains break the
oil films. A broken film on a pool
is almost as bad as no oil at all.
e Watch carefully the ground around
faucets or pumps where water leaks
or is thrown out, and oil frequently.
Most mosquitoes. come from places
thought too insignificant for attention.
Smash all bottles or cans capable of
holding even little water after a
rain. = .~' 80.
Where possible dig drains to pre-
vent recurrence of pools. A little
shoveling will work wonders.

The Pedomsts~ Habit Is Splendid One
TO Cultivate.
A famous New York doctor was call
ed upon some months ago by patient
who presented an appearance of i'll
ness, but with whom he could find
nothing the matter. Questioning dis
closed the fact that he had not taken
regular physical exercise for years.
That's your trouble remarked the
wise physician. 'I'll write you pre-
scription.' When he got outside the
office the patient opened the bit of pa
per and read, ''Get pedometer and
bring it back to me in three weeks
with the Indicator pointing to 100
miles" When the patient returned at
the time mentioned the doctor, without
making an examination, told him he
need not come back any more His
looks demonstrated the efficacy Of the
treatment. But he was counseled to
persevere in keeping the pedometer
busy and thereby save many a doe

Amdlgdmdti0n
Of Many Trades
Was Endorsed Last Sunday
at Ohio State Machinists
Meeting.

A resolution endorsing amalga-
nation of all metal trade unions
under one international president
was endorsed at the meeting OF
the Ohio State Machinists /. A. of
M. at Machinists hall. Dayton,
Ohio, Sunday. The state associa
tion is the first to endorse this plan
of strengthening the metal trade
union interests, the plan having
been recommended to the consider
aticn of the various bodies at the
ST. Louis conference of general Of
fcers and business agents, March
. to IA. The plan calls for or
ganizing by industries instead of
by crafts, enabling unions to be
formed where there are now not
enough workers in particular
craft to hold a charter under the
laws of international unions. 1t is
believed by this form of organiza-
ton that headquarters could be
maintained, travelling workers and
unemployed could be better taken
care of and many advantages main
tanned which are now beyond the
reach of many craft unions owing
30 small membership and lack of
finance.
The proposed amalgamation will
include the present organizations
of the machinists, boilermakers,
blacksmiths, brass workers, metal
polishers, sheet metal workers, iron
workers, electricians, plumbers and
steam filters, elevator constructors
and machinists pow men bers of the
carpenters and joiners unions.
1t is believed that this form of
amalgamation under single inter
national president will eliminate
much internal dissension which has
existed between the crafts in the
past.
A committee was appointed Sun
day to have full charge of the or
gauization work until the time of
the next convention to be held in
Akron, October 81.
State Secretary V. S. Cauthier
of Toledo called attention to condi
tions confronting metal workers,
