MONTANA JUDGE
CALLS HARRISON
DRUG ACT VOID

Word comes from Helena. Mont,
that the Harrison Drugs Act which'was
passed en- March / OF this year, has
been declared unconstitutional in Mon
tana by United States Judge George
NJ. Bourquin. II is said that seven
defendants who had been indicted for
having drugs in their possession, were
released.
News of Judge Bourquin's decision
is of interest here because of the fact
that drastic measures are being plan
ned by local authorities to abolish
the opium habit Officers at the in
Of the opinion that the decision would
have any vital effect on the Harrison
act
Reasons for the decision were that
the act interfered with the Montana
metropolitan police law, but in Col
lector Haley's opinion state law has
little effect in annulIing federal law.
Chief Deputy Ralph tombstone be-
lieves that the decision will be car.
ried to higher authority and the Har-
rison act cleared of any claim OF I'M
eonstitutionality.
Many people," he says, who have
had charge of the work in running
down the drug habit, declare that the
Harrison act, since it went into effect,
has done more to accomplish results
in their line than did any other law
in history"
In regard to local physicians who
are known to be supplying addicts
with prescriptions whereby they may
obtain narcotics in large lots, Mr.. Ha-
ley is not allowed to give out the
names of such persons to the general
public but he may under the law give
out the list to the health authorities.
The local medical society is, deter
mined to help in the stamping out OF
the practise and will probably in the
near future, together with the board
of health, call upon Collector Haley
for the names of such physicians.

Every autoist, every driver Of street-car,
has had moments of horrible suspense when

KINNEY AND RAYMOND SEE
WATERFOWL SCHOOL SITE


Henry w. Kinney. superintendent
of public instruction. and George s.
Raymond. public school inspector,
went to Waterfowl yesterday after
noon to look over a site to which the
present school building is to be moved.
The land on which the school is now
situated is leased property. and It Is
the idea of the department to secure
Zee simple land. There is an appro-
priaticn Of $1,000 which provides for
moving the school building to the new
site and for the erection OF = new
bungalow type of school building. The
new site is far more suitable than the
present one, according to Mr.. Kinney,
as 1t is more removed from the rail-
road tracks laid down by dredging
company.

RILEY H. ALIEN
JULY Il, 1915:
DECIDEDLY HOPEFUL.

That John III. Wise should not only assent t.
but strongly advocate radical charter revision
and the adoption of the "short ballot" form OF
government by Honolulu will be general sur
prise He and many others who have been
elected to the convention are popularity sup
posed to be "standpat" to the point of reac-
tionarism. 1t has been taken for granted by
the ayowed workers for charter reform that the
voting majority in the convention would be
against the elimination of number of elective
offices and the substitution Of the short ballot
plan.
If delegates of the admitted political astute-
ness among Honolulu voters of Wise and w. c.
Achi endorse and work for the short ballot
plan, the plan is possible of naturalization.
There are perhaps dozen out of the sixty-odd
delegates who are avowed workers for the
short ballot plan, together with the recall the
Initiative and referendum, and the four-yea
term for elected officials. They have been ex-
pected to make determined but largely hope
less fight for their views. If men with the in
Iuence among the Hawaiian delegates of Achi
and Wise join forces with the nucleus already
certain, they should be able to mould the con-
tention They should be able to make it use

The situation is decidedly more hopeful than

Admiral Wei Hans prediction that the
Chinese boycott of japanese goods will not last
long is not in agreement with the comment of
noted American businessman and educator
who passed through Honolulu on the Manchuria
yesterday. He says that the Chinese are show
ing deep and silent anger against Japan
which makes the boycott very serious matter
and that this anger will not soon be dispelled.
All of which bears out the statement in these
columns at the time Japan voiced her demands
that Toxic might win on the surface but down
below, in the powerful and profitable current of
commerce, the japanese would lose.

U. S. ENDS SHIP CONFERENCE
Washington Asserts That Arrange
ments on Cargoes With Britain
Were Entirely Unofficial.

Washington, May 25.-Secretary
Bryan on Saturday ordered the termin
alton of the unofficial negotiations
which have been in progress be
tween the United States and Great
Britain with reference to cotton and
dyestufs.
Two reasons prompted this action
on the part of the secretary Of state
first, he objected to certain phrases in
British notes, which indicated thai
the London government was seeking
to lend an official character to the ne
gotiations, thereby obtaining Ameri
can recognition of the validity Of the
British orders in council against which
a strong protest was made. Second
the administration deemed 1t %inexpedi
ent to be placed in the position of &C.
quiescing officially in British practice
respecting American trade while al
the same time making stiff demands
upon Germany in connection with the
Lusitania and other tragedies.
The secretary believes the United
States is not bound by these unof.
fetal negotiations.
