Kurtistown, Hawaii, April Is, 1915.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Hearty congratulations, Prince
Kuhio. It's very refreshing to have
a man come out in the open and tell
what his honest convictions are with
out regard for the awful consequences
that may come from not thinking and
acting exactly as sugar interests want
him to do. No doubt an overwhelm-
ing majority of the people on these
islands believe as kuhio does, but are
not in a position to say it-that re-
organizat alton of methods by the large
plantation interests should be made
and not until this is done will real
prosperity come to the many and not
the few.
The Advertiser under date of April
IA says editorially with this caption,
Serious Blunder Threatens: "Kuhio
appeared before legislative commit
tee yesterday and urged the passage
of a resolution requesting Congress to
send congressional committee to Ha-
waii to investigate the relationship be

Honolulu. T. r., April Il, 1915.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir: I wish to reply to an article
from the Los Angeles Examiner re-
! garding the authorship of Tipperary.
which appeared in your paper Of April
| ~ and the Los Angeles Examiner o.
! April |.
The Mr.. Harry II. Williams in ques
ton, both in London ard America, are
one and the same, as the photos pub
! lished in the Los Angeles Examiner,
| the London Sketch and the Music
| Tr'des prove the identity OF the man
| who wrote the words to In the Shade
) of the Old Apple Tree" I'm Afraid to
Go Home in the Dark" also Long,
| Long Way to Tipperary.' Can two
| men write the same song words? So
why claim there are two Harry H.
Williams. You will also bear in mind
| that this is not claim OF authorship
but Of musical composition, theme
original with the composer, Mrs
Smythe Jay. | lay no claim to the
words.
According to the publishers (Rert
Feldman & Co.., advertising and the
newspaper accounts, there seems to
he difference, OF opinion as, to the
real composer, Some accounts saying
Williams may have WI Den it, others
that Jack Judge wrote It and the pub
fishers claim they are all part compos-
ers. The article in the Motion Picture
News of January 9 states clearly that
Jack Judge, the former of the three,
is responsible for the composition.
Why is it that the publishers don't
come out and contradict these differ.
ent opinions? Why are they noncOm.
initial regarding the music theme:
They seem to stand mute regarding
this. Anyone who AasseEeES PLAYED mu.
sic at ali can easiiy knsse the diff.
ference between the introduction and
the verse of Tipperary as old familiar
airs of an Irish jig and The Wearing
of the Green" revised.
| regret very much that my "Yaki-
ma" march was introduced to the pub
lie in this FORM The marrh com.
plete of which Tipperary chorus is
my march trio, is a march of musical
range and, written in the rondo grade,
taking a little over one octave. Ron,
do music is usually clasSed among the
better grades. | presume this is why
the chorus of Tipperary appealed to
the great tenor, John Mccormack. Did
anyone ever hear of Jack Judge as #
composer prior to 1911 and 1912? The
first publication of Tipperary seems
to have been his initial bow to the
public in the composer world. He is
known as a concert hall singer. His
personality is easily recognized and :
would be very hard to duplicate.
Thanking you for your space,
Yours very truly, !
MRS. SMYTHE JAY,
The Original Composer of the Theme
Used in the Chorus Of Tipperary.

A SIMPLE AND LOGICAL SOLUTION.

The legislator" is evincing disposition not
to appropriate territorial moneys for the fed
"raI experiment station work. Probably it is
because the federal authorities did not fall in
readily with the plan for amalgamaton of the
territorial and t. $. experimental branches
here.
The reason is not sufficient to cause the ter
litory to withdraw its support of the federal
work. Such withdrawal would be nfortu-
nate from every standpoint, If the legislature
wishes TO keep part-control over the funds,
there is very simple ,soution-appropriate
the money for experimental work to be done
through the College Of Hawaii in Injunction
with the federal experiment station.

RAISING THE F-4.

Although all hope Of saving the crew Of the
submarine F4 is past, by all means the vessel
should be raised. Aside from sentimental rea-
sons, Secretary Daniels is right in saying that
the operation must be carried through regard
less of cost, in order to ascertain the cause of
the accident. If the submarine was lost through
some structural weakness, it is highly import
ant that the fact be established. If it failed
to rise because Of trouble with the machinery,
that point must be cleared up. The navy is
about to make substantial additions to it's sub
marine feet. 1t cannot afford to ignore any
lessons that experience may offer-New York

ELLI077'S FRIENDS
 GIVE HIM HAPPINESS

The numerous friends of Judge john M. Elliott who sent him Christ mas greetings may have the satis- faction of knowing that they made Christmas for him 9 happy event. Tiles of letters and cards delivered to the judge yesterday attested the feeling entertained for him, and could the senders have heard Judge Illicit express, in voice just bit husky with emotion, his appreciation of these evidences Of thoughtful friendship they would enjoy the Christmas 1T ore, surely.
 q appre ciate these tokens more than l can say" Judge Elliott said to The Graphic man. q wish, son you know l can't reach all these friends with acknowledgements to- day-I wish, son, ycu would say for me that I am deeply grateful to these kind friends. I did not know before that l had so many-so many kind, thoughtful friends; so many who would take the trouble to write me at this tine. don't know if I de- serve such kindness. but certainly I shall strive tc merit the esteem of all these good people,"

TAKE THE BRED. OUT OF PRE-.
 PAREDNESS.

Some newspapers talk as if the na- ton is going to be gobbled up by some huge monster unless we spend a billion or so with our munition makers.
 They tell us that the victor in Eu- rope is going to hand Us fearful spanking, and that we had better get ready to prevent it.
 They see red.
 The country. of course, cannot af- ford to be defenseless in the face Of a world in arms. The fact that the world is in arms is not of our making. We are against the propo- sitien per SC, but can't help it if some others force us to do as they do until some how the world dis arms.
 But we don't believe any European nation will have enough money, me.l and war-vitality left after the pres ent dcse to bother us for some time to come.
 We do know, however, that armor- f,ate and intuition makers are going fo charge the government as much as they can for what we need. The way to get the most for Cut money is to let the government make Its own implements of war. The saving is about 50 per cent. Wh, rot?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Without doubt this will be a real merry Christmas in Pine Bluff, and the Pine Bluff territory.
 The God of all has been more than indulgent with His children of this section, and there have been numer- cub evidences in the past few days that the children arc inspired with tho true Christian spirit.
 Mother Earth has yielded abun- dantly; our crops have brought good lrices, and because our farmers have taken advantage of unsurpassed eli 1natic and soil conditions to practice G'versification of crops, barns, pan t.ies and storehouses are filled, and cotton money is in the bank-or should be.
 Our industries have thrived, and are thriving. Demand is increasing for the products of mills and facto- res drawing their raw material from Natures treasury, hoarded for cen- ttries, and increasing in value all the time.
 All this makes for prosperity in tke Pine Bluff territory, and there Is prosperity. With earthly riches Fine Bluff people have been enabled to give rein to that generosity for which they are noted.
 The poor have been provided for; friends have been remembered, and tlday our people will turn in and make merry with their loved ones about their own firesides. Conscious Of, good deeds done, they can and deserve 10 enjoy to the full the hap piness they have purchased throuSn kindness, consideration and display C.. brotaerly love.

often we delay in displaying esteem and friendship until it is too late until these we esteem and those we lcye cannot see and cannot hear. Far better to give way to sentiment while one may see and hear than to wait and-regret.
 People in Pine Bluff cannot but realize that this is Q good world, despite that there is sorrow and sui fering. And that it is as good a world as it is, is because of Him whose birthday we celebrate today. In our merriment, in our happl- ness, let us not forget the true slg- n;ficance of the day; let us not for set the teachings He taught. Let us remember that there is suffering, and try to give relief; let us not for get that there are among us those who mourn, and seek to dispel their grief-not by boisterous merriment, but by kindness, gentleness and con- s'deration of their feelings-as we know He would have us do.
 And fully regardful of all we owe tt Him and to His Son, let there be visible evidence of this gratitude and lcve by attendance a. His temples, where may be heard again and again the great lessons, and where His praises can be sung without re s1raint
 Man cannot get far away from God ard live right. And to keep near God, man must not, man cannot lose touch with His disciples.
 Whatever of good there is in the world comes fron God; whatever of evil comes frcm failure to follow Him.
 Pine Bluff folk are blessed. They should display their gratitude and appreciation by paying homage to
 
 Father than we do for friend who l!as sent us a present. If we deem t the part of gratitude and courtesy to acknowledge receipt of gift from tl friend, how much greater is the obligation to acknowledge the gifts Of inestimable value received through the indulgence of the Friend of all, the poor and the rich, the weak and tie strong-the Friend all may turn to in sorrow or distress, confident tl at the story will be teard and that strength, courage and aid will be forthcoming.
 This isn't exactly tho kind of ed- itorial we intended to write, but the spirit that prompts the display of friendship for one another turned thoughts in the direction taken. There is an atmosphere everywhere of good will and brotherly love. Whence comes this spirit, but from Christ? And if it is good to make known our kindly feeling for our brothers here, is it not more befit- t'ng that we should make known the gratitude we feal toward the Giver of all gifts, the Creator of the Christ mas spirit?
