Lanes Failure

Supervisors Of man who put out of office as
Sheriff by the votes of the people because the peo-
pie had no further faith in him and believed the
reports in wide circulation concerning the con-
duct of the police department under his control.
In the eyes of very many, Mayor Lane will
never be able to explain away this move. At this
very moment, Mayor Lane has in his Office let
ter accusing A. NJ. Brown of being at the head
OF the ring protecting the principal gamblers OF
Honolulu, charge that has never been explained
away or investigated, so far as the publc>is aware.
The people Of Honolulu, too, have not forgotten
The allegations supposed to have been made in
the Halter report. -..
a 1t is the privilege of Lane Of course, to suit
himself, but it would have been better for him
had he sounded public opinion before springing
this infamous nomination upon the city. When
the inevitable exposure comes, he will now be as
6eeply involved as anyone. We are sorry for Lane
and ashamed of the supervisors. Some of them,
at least, knew better. '.-ar

Another Deadlock

T~HE observance. of strict neutrality probably
+ j requires that the United States maintains the
stand it has taken against the British contention
that its blockade orders in council justify the
seizure of American vessels cleared for neutral
ports with cargoes OF supplies or of other neutral
vessels carrying American cargoes to points of
susp cted transshipment to Britain's enemies. The
British quote American precedents to justify their
acts, and as yet, so far is known, the American
state department has not attempted to answer the
citations. II is probable, how over, that Washing
ton takes the position E6w that the blockade of
the South in different category to- the block
AIDE of Germany, inasniul E. as all nations could
be prevented from tradingt with the Confederacy,
which had but the seaboard, while the Brit
ish blockade of Germany cannot be made effective
along the Baltic sesboard unless the British were
to send feet of submarines into the Baltic TO
carry on the same sort of warfare against neu-
trails that the German submarines carrying on
in British waters.
The fact that the British, are doing such
thing, are diverting but not conhscating nor de-
stroying ships and cargoes of neutrals, and are
not taking the lives of neutrals leaves the differ
ences with the British in a. wholly different posi-
ton from our differences with Germany, and
whether the United States agrees that the British
position be correct not there is nothing tran
spring that cannot be auJudlCated latcf on II Is
simple question of money damages, # Great Bri
tain be wrong not question Of the lives of women
and babies.
The suggestion that tie matter may be referred
to an international tribunal for adjustment opens
the way for some interesting con lecture. Where,
for instance, will it be possible to secure inn
partial international tribunal satisfactory to both
the United States and Great Britain? Certainly
not in Europe, Asia, Australasia, nor
Africa because each Of those continents are made
up Of nations directly interested side or
the other Of the question while it will hardly be
possible TO suppose that Great Britain will be con-
tent to allow South America to decide and make
international rulings regarding warfare upon the
sea and the naval rights Of belgcrents for Europe
and the rest Of the world When the matter comes
to a >";tlemeri. It will probably have to be before
tribunal made up OF American and British judges
with each side trusting in the fairness of the other
! to vote on the law and the evidence .
In the meanwhile there is another diplomatic
deadlock. -...

Ray of Common, Sense

TIiIE suggestion of Supervisor Shingle that the
i supervisors issue request to the property
owners of the downtown district to proceed with
the laying of cement sidewalks before their prop
critics and not make it necessary for the city to
enforce the sidewalk ordinance is a sound sugges
ton and the resolution embodying it should carry
without dissent.
Mr.. Shngc states that, in his opinion, ninety
per cent OF those approached in this way would
agree with the reqdest, and his estimate is UNI
doubtedly correctls The number Of people who
have to be frrued to do the decent thing is GER
tainly not more than one in ten in Honolulu, and
it would be worth While finding out just who those
arc who would refuse to do their share.
The suggestion of Mr.. Shingle is ray of COM
mon sense shining across the technically darkened
path of civic Improvement. The advancement Of
Honolulu is held up more by Smart" lawyers
looking for opportunities to test the constitution
ality of everything on the law books than it is
by anything else. One lawyer and one kicker
ready to defend his right to be recalcitrant form
combination able at any time to hold up improve
ments even though the necessity be undisputed.
Mr.. Shingles idea is TO appeal to the common
sense Of the majority to shame the kickers into
action, and it should work splendjdly.

Behind the President

FOLLOWING the announcement of the text
i %of the last American note tot Germany, which
warned that nation that repetition of the out
RACES against which America had protested would
be regarded as "a deliberately unfriendly act" the
New York Tribune called for rallyng of the Ma
ton to the support of the President.
In the present crisis in the international rela-
tons of the country the President of the United
States is entitled to feel that he has the support
of whole nation in his task of uphoding Amer
lean rights and defending American lives" says
the Tribune.
" No man ever tried more sincerely, more hon
orably more industriously to find friendly solu-
ton for problem posed by the murderous act of
another nation than has Woodrow Wilson in
cent days.
"A great many Americans. believing that
solution was ever possible and therefore that from
the beginning the President should have made his
first note an ultmatum, have criticized and may
now continue to criticize Mr.. Wilson. But such
course will merely play into the hands of those
who are eager to discredit him not because he has
moved slowly and cautiously but because he has
acted at all.
, at is the recognition of this fact which impelS
The Tribune to repeat its advice to Republicans,
We have come to grave crisis. The gravity is
largely accentuated by the fact that within
gates are many who feel that their loyalty to Ger
many controls even when American lives and
rights are at stake. In this crisis the President
has already been attacked by alien syrnpathizers
and betrayed by certain ambitious Democratic
politicians. '.a. 4. -
"In such situation the plain duty for all of
us is to strengthen the Presidents hand and make
him yet more certain that what he has done to
assert and assure American rights is approved by
people some of whom found his past hesitation
and forbearance irksome, but none of whom is
willing to lessen the meaning Of the present mes
sage by comment which, however well understood
at home will be gleefully seized upon abroad as
inspiration for a new massacre or fresh insult.
President Wilson'S message doubtless will not
say all that many hoped it would But in what
it does say, to the extent it does affirm American
| rights and indicate the meaning of further inva7
sion Of them, it should be Endorsed by people
already perceiving the degree to which the APP
pearance of division at home is being employed to
provoke insult and injury from abroad"

Wouldn't it serve the same purpose far as
the waterworks department is concerned if the
expense OF supplying the schools be carried as
book item on both sides Of the ledger and not be
entered as an account to be collected in cash?
1t is necessary Of course that the waterworks de
partment be credited with all the water it sup
plies, otherwise the matter of costs will be con
fused, but it should not be necessary to deduct
that amount from the little allowed the schools
for maintenance Taking money out of one pocket
and putting it in another is not going to benefit
the city any but it will hurt the schools in this
