Help the Carnival

- HE technical legal reasons advanced why the
Carnival Association should not be granted
the full use Of Aaa Park for week or two during
Nthe Carnival season, it seems to us, are hardly
reasons enough for the supervisors to decline the
application Of the Carnival director general for the
use Of the park. The law that public park
shall be leased to private corporation is good
law and should be enforced but when it is stretch
ed to apply to the Carnival Association as "pri-
vate corporation it is being misused. Everyone
knows that the Carnival is not private affair nor
money-making affair for anyone. nor anything
that can be included in the terms of the law ex-
cept through the stricteSt and most technical inter
probation. .er.-.
Let the supervisors grant the use of Aala Park
to the Carnival and satisfy the public.
In the same way the suggestion that the rules
of the fire limit should apply to the proposed Ha-
waiian Village for, Bishop Square is beyond rea-
son. In the first place, the law applies only to
buildings, and the grass huts of the proposed vii
lage will not be buildings but exhibits There are
hre limit, laws IN every city, yet Chicago had it's
Dahomey Village, its Samoan Village and whole
acres OF iimsy, dGstructible structures Every ex-
position has its grass houses of some kind and
none yet has suggested that they should be fire.
proof.
Take all reasonable precautions both as to the
safeguarding of the public rights in the parks and
the safeguarding Of the public from the erection
OF lnHammable structures within the fire limits,
but do not place the letter of the law above the
rights of the people in either case. The Carnival
is for Honolulu and should get all the support
from every source possible official and unofficial,
public and private.

The Congressional Visit

4 Tsis not too much to say that the visit to Ha-
waii of the congressional party this summer
had something if not a great deal, to do with the
recently announced decision of the administration
to retain the existing sugar duties, 1t is very
tain that the great majority Of the Democratic
visitors had their preconceived ideas concerning
Hawaii and the sugar barons and the down trod-
den poems and the relationship between the Ha-
waiian planters and the Sugar Trust radically al
tered, and that they passed their altered views
along. 1t is true that some of them refused to
acknowledge in public any change OF heart OF rev-
sion Of views but it is equally true that, with half
a dozen exceptions the Democrats who came to
visit went away to boost for Hawaii and to do
everything that good Democrat could do to
remedy recognized mistake.
Ii is not too much to say that in the way Of
army appropriations, naval appropriations, harbor
Improvements and general legislation Hawaii will
reap a thousand dollars from the congressional
visit where sowed ten, and every cent will
come for legitimate purpose.
There are those who termed the congressional
visit "junketting trip" and exchanged sneering
remarks about it all waste of territorial funds
These people never will be shown. They never
will be able to reason from cause to effect. They
are the kind of people who announce in Dragging
accents that Il don't believe In Advertising" You
will never find them up very close to the front,
though, and so what they do or don't believe in
and approve Of is not worth bothering over

STRANGE EXPLOSION
ADOARDDESTROYER
Mystery of Fatal Accident In
Decatur At Cavite, Is
&c. Still Unsolved

Copies of the Cahlenews- merican, Of
Manila, received here last week con.
tain graphic details of the mysterious
explosion which occurred in the tor
pedO boat destroyer Decatur at Cavite,
Luzon, early last month. Loid J. Elk
ms, gunner's mate second class was
killed and at the time the Manila pa.
Pcrs were published there was doubt
whether William U. Hayden, chief gun
neT s mate and Ewel Bell, gunner s
hate, who also were injured, would
survive. The accident occurred Sep.
TENDER 9.
The Cablenews-A American Of the fol.
Lowing day gives the following brief
description of the affair
with an uprOar that awoke sleepy
Cavite and its envirOns for miles
around, a mysterious explosion yester-
day afternoon on the United States
torpedo boat destroyer Decatur, killed
one man and injured six others, two of
them very seriously. That the vessel
itself was not blown into fragments
was a miracle for she carried in a war
head locker, four warheads filed with
EIghly explosive gun cotton, each of
them deadly enough to blow a dread
hcught into atoms. This locker was
but few feet away from the store
room where the explosion took place. /"
AS to the cause of the explosion the
same paper of September IL says:
Nothing has as yet been unearth-
ed.' said Commander Foley, "this is
q matter which will take long and
careful study before it can be discov-
eyed. We haven't the slightest idea
what could possibly have caused tho
explosion. AS far as we know, every
thing was accounted for in the way of
il hammable material. Oils, paints,
gasoline, combustIDles of all kinds,
have been carefully checked over. Ev.
ervthing vas in its place. Nothing il
missing.
"The Decatur was in exceptionally
fine shape. 1t is always in the best
Of condition, for its officers and crew
have always kept it so. But it just
happens that at the present time it
is in more than good shape, for
everything was thoroughly gone over
hot more than couple of weeks ago
in anticipation of a visit of inspection
by the Admiral, which will occur sooa,
''But this only deepens the mystery
What caused the explosion will GER
tniLly be brought to light. 1t must
be, for the causes were material ones,
and as such can and will be traced. But
It il not matter of a few moments
II may take days or weeks or months,
but firmly believe that they can be
found.
"Much will be learned, it is hoped,
from Hayden and Bell when they
are able to talk. Just now they
cannot be bothered for they are very
SEX men. But it is quite probable
that they may be able to shed some
light on the mystery"
The other men injured by the ex.

resting easily and are slowly recover
