GREAT NORTHERN
PARTY DELIGHTED
Honolulu Woman On Coast Tells
How Greatly Pleased Tourists
Were With Hawaii Hospitality

b.. . f'f'.a - +. .
The Advertiser is in receipt Of a let'
ter from Mrs. v. II! Hampton; 2is9 Ka,
liza road, this city, who was . passenger
on the return voyhga Of the new pala.
cial steamer Great Northern, which
made an excursion trip TO the islands
turing the latter part of last month.
That the tourists fully appreciated the
welcome given to them by the reception
committee on their arrival in Honolulu
is brought forth in the letter written in
San Francisco. 1t ia as follows: =
. PAS happened I'd be q passenger on
board the steamer Great Northern FROM
Honolulu to here, 1t was very interest,"
ing, to say the least, to listen to such
pleased and grateful tourists. / thought
those who took the pains. to plan and
carry out the reception would like To
know it was appreciated, for it, surely
was, indeed. The tourists never tired
of telling and repeating what lovely
time they had, and often spoke of Homo
lulu folks cordial hospitality AZ 2
1T really doesn t seem possible thai
such a large number OfispeFsons woult
think SO much of small thing as Q lit
the lei, but they said they thought i
was so sweet and friendly, of them Il
come and put them around their necks
and naturally they expected at FIRST Z
J have to put their hands down IN thei
pockets, as tourists generally do. IL yo'
had put a ve-dollar gold piece aroun'
every ones neck, you could not hay'
pleased him half as much. .,.t 49,.
'tIt was the sentiment Of that, wit
the music and friendliness Of IL all, tina
made them rave SO over the Islands. 1
will surely prove great advertisement
for Honolulu, and Hilo, too. Barrin
the accident they enjoyed Hiio and tn
volcano very much indeed. / wish 1
might find words to tell how very gratt
full and appreeiative they all were,

The ADVERTISERS SEM-WEEKLY

forth the reply of Baron Kato already referred to.
Baron Kato was minister Of foreign affairs when
the ultmatum to Germany was issued in the midi
Idle Of August The ultimatum advised Germany
Ito deliver on date not later than September ),
to the imperial Japanese authorities without COM
pensation the entire leased territory OF Kaio7
Chow with view to the eventual restoration Of
the same to China" rs
n 1t was these W, -ds Of the utimatum, no doubt,
that gave the United States the impression that
Japan would return the territory to China If she
succeeded in taking 1t from Germany In addi-
Ition to the utimatum there came to the United
States at the same time an account of Baron Kato
addressing a meeting of merchants and others in
which he was reported as having said Japan had
no ambition for territorial ACKNOWLEDGMENT There
was much comment in the United States at the
time, and the policy Of Japan was compared to
ours when we declared war on Spain and took
Cuba. @ ##l 80 ssa. z \. .
,Afterit became apparent that japan did not in
tend to turn the territory over to China at once
There was some criticism in the United States
and there is criticism now because OF reported de-
mands upon China made by Japan, but we are
reminded that though the United States did not
lannex Cuba, it finally decided to reserve certain
supervisory rights, that Cuba is today not al
absolutely independent power. ~
Japan advi ,ed Germany to turn the leased ter.
/ ritory over with view to the eventual restora
ton of the same to China" There is an implied
promise in this, but the time of its ful6llment il
mot definite. Eventual restoration" may reason
ably be interpreted to mean restoration at som,
time in the future when Japan thinks it wis
step. -
I 1t is to be remembered, too, that Germany die
mot accept the advice and that Japan sent army
and navy to take the German fortress at Using
Itao. .a@es 1esa
Baron Kato, replying further to the reported
tcritcism in the United States, said American
Iand Europeans seemed to set up standard o
Judgment for the Japanese much higher than thu
standard they themselves desired to be judged by
Japan desired to be judgeddby the Western ma
tons as the latter judge one another.
1t appears that Japan is ambitious to occup!
la position in the Orient similar to that of tn
limited States in the Western Hemisphere. Sh

The Quick Idea

TIME suggestion advanced by Dir Sidnty Gu
! lick from the pulpit Of Central Union
Church on Sunday evening that q solution Of the
American Japanese question could be found by
placing the Japanese on terms, Of equality with
all other races seeking entrance ID TIE United
States, granting the right Of naturalization to
those qualifying. but restricting all immigration
to not more than FIVE per cent per year OF the
number OF each race securing citizenship IS being
discussed in the Japanese press. The comments
on the plan are, as a rule, favorable
X Takahashi, Of the editorial staff Of the Japan
Times. who is one Of the leading journalists OF
tIapan and who;is thoroughly familiar with con-
dtions assthey exist in the United States, IS lead
ing in the discussion Of the Gulick plan. In
recent issue Of the Times, written after Doctor
C'tlick had left Japan, he says
\ ~ Doctor Gulick has a very far-seelng view OF
the relations OF East and West and works out his
plan TO remove the present racial disqualification
for American citizenship of opening the doors OF
the Republic to immigrants from all countries on
the basis OF percentage on those who have al
ready become American citizens Some may be
inclined to criticize the rate Of percentage he pro-
poses, namely, FIVE for every hundreds; but we
must remember that immigration in general,
apart from the question of Asiatic immigrants,
| is very serious question with America While
with us the question is not how many should be
admitted but the removal of racial ineligibility
which is being made the basis Of exclusive legis-
lation We should therefore be content if that
point is gained. We consider il mistake, how
ever. to suppose that the removal OF racial dis
qualification will also remove racial prejudices
which may even become accumulated unless the
problem Of East and West is presented wisely
Here again the principle, of the Council Of the
Churches will have to be more strongly appealed

Japan, and Tsi;rgI-tao

DARON KATO, minister of foreign affairs of
- Japan, in an address before the Association
Concordia last month, asserted that Japan had
not made a promise to anybody to restore Using
tao to China How such an erroneous impression
had got abroad in the United States the foreign
minister said he was completely at a loss to un-
derstand. He said further that the question would
be settled after the war in which Japan was
participant. How it would be settled he could
not tell, for he did not know himself,
This significant statement followed an address
by DR.. Smaller Mathews, who was in Japan to
report on the state of American opinion and to
cultivate a good understanding between the ma
tons. 1t appears that the addresses at a meeting
of the Association Concordia composed Of both
Japanese and Americans, were very frank, the
purpose being to describe conditions as they are
and not to withhold any facts that might make
for thorough understanding. Doctor Mathews
spoke from his knowledge OF a great body of
Christians in the United States with which he is
connected and from his knowledge Of public opin-
ion at large.
lie said Americans had pretty universally got
the impression that the Japanese government
promised to give back Tsing-taQ to China. Then
he added: There came dispatch in which it
was stated that no such promise had been given,
Now think that | can understand that situation.
] don't think myself that any such promise was
given except in terms OF the ultimatum, which
was very different thing from what the Amer
lean people think, 4. p ~.

A Proper Measure

HN the surface, everything appears favorable
~ for the passage Of House Bill 2l0 the bill
empowering the Governor to appoint commas
sion to make complete appraisal of the property
of the Territory and the various counties in order
that there may be, for the first time, some definite
data of the public assets as a starting point Tor
a general rearrangenients;of the public bookkeep-
ing The bill has passed its second reading IN
the house, on the unanimous endorsement Of the
Accounts Committee, whose bill, in fact il is. On
the surface everything appears favorable, but It
has been suggested that there are underground
steps being taken to kill the measure.
The bill enibodies the suggestions OF the public
finance committee of the Honolulu chamber Of
commerce and the municipal accounting commit
tee of the Ad Club Its provisions have been
carefully gone into BY the Legislative committee
OF ,the chamber Of commerce and il stands for
what these organizations believe Isl necessary u
order to place the Territory upon a, sound Imam
cial footing, leading the way to the establishment
throughout Hawaii of modern system OF pubic
accounting. ~ a.
In some roundabout manner the impression has
been engendered that the measure is in some way
nrcal to the interests .of the Hawaiiafts, whils
other reports have it that the bill is directed
against one or another OF the Departmental heads
These reports are absurd, but may, despite this
wean away some Of the support the measure
should receive. mainly because of the fact that
the bill is Of necessity involved in its text and the
purport is not 70 be grasped4 in casual reading
1t should be sufficient answer to the critics tC
know that this bill follows the recommendation
made at the CIVIC convention in Wailuku, where
questions involving the good of the Territory a.
whole were debated with the utmost frankness
with sectionalism and racialism wholly eliminated
Neither the chamber Of commerce nor AID Clui
has any ulterior motive in urging this bill The,
want what every person in the Islands Should
want the betterment Of Hawaii and the modern
hing of our systems Of public accounting

Men and Supplies

CIR JOHN FRENCH is quoted yesterday as
~ ntimating that the end al, the war can now
be said to be within slightly this opinion being
based on the coming exhaustion Of the German
ammunition supply Only recently, Premier As
remark in speech in the commons to the effect
that the end Of the war may come considerably
sooner than most people expect. ..>a
On the other hand, in a recent article from the
front, Former Senator Breckenridge comments
on the manner in which the Germans husband
their ammunition, the French firing twenty shots
to the Germans one. This fact was commented
on by him, the explanation being that the French
are more excitable and shoot at the least sugges-
ton of activity on the part of their enemy; while
the more phlegmatic TeutOn shoots only when
he is satisfied that there is something to shoot
at. This Conservation of munitions, the German
officers said, was placing Germany in a better
position for the dragging out of the campaign
than the Allies r
According to the Hamburger FremdenbIatt
Germany has "inexhaustible reserves" of men
and was able, in January last, to place two and a
half million more young soldiers in the field. Thai
publication says: "e. Ia
When the unframed Landstrum reported for
duty in the district of the Ninth Army Corps,

CHRISTMAS CARDS

LFrom the Kansas City Starl
This one word about Christmas cards.
There is a graceful custom of eNchang-
ing among friends the printed senti-
ments OF other men as their own. Now
1t probably is true that these little
messages in which Ruskin and Tenny-
son and Browning have so well inter
preted our own thoughts are cast in
higher language than we could cast
them, but We ought TO remember when
we take our pen in hand, what Schiller
said-that no man is eloquent save in
his own language.
II We are to shape our business and
intercourse with each other on approved
models there are patterns enough.
There are model letters: letter for a
Young Man Proposing Marriage. Letter
for Young Man Seeking a Position.
Letters for a Young Woman Declining
an Invitation to an oyster Supper, but
they cannot be recommended. No more
should we allow Emerson or Byron or
Marcus Aurelius-no matter how cor
rectly, they have interpreted our
thought-to tell our friend we are
thinking of him. II you want your
friend to read Emerson send him the
book. but let the letter accompanying
1t be yours.
