Chairman Of Board of Regents
Says Lyman Resolution
Should Do Good

College OF Hawaii authorities do not
resent the idea Of an investigation as
proposed by the resolution introduced
in the house yesterday by Representa-.
tive Norman X. lyman. On the con
trary. as W. r. Farrington. president
OF the board OF regents, made plain
today, the college welcomes public at
tention turned to it and its needs and
aims.
Questioned as to the attitude the
board Of regents would take on the
lyman resolution. Mr.. harrington
said:
IL welcome every sincere move
made to bring the College OF Hawaii
to a better degree of perfection in
it's mission OF meeting the educational
roblems Of this territory. more espe-
Cially the problems of the people who
want to work for a living and who
w'nt to work efficiently.
The more people there are taking
an active interest in the college, the
more people engaged in securing an in
telligent knowledge of what the col
lege is doing and what it can do for
the young men and young women Of
Hawaii, the better.
Consequently the Lyman resolution
can accomplish something definite for
the common good. Provided Of course
that the persons appointed to the COM
mission are sincere. Amerlc IN in their
ideals and progressive. That's pro-
vision which goes with every commits
sion.
president Wilson has recently said
that when the idealist learns what he
cannot do and understands it, he be-
comes a statesman. Thele are some
features suggested in the resolution
which appear at first sight as imprac-
teal. Far be it from me, however, to
dampen the ardOr of any man who is
honestly striving to inspire, and assist
the boys and girls of this territory
who work, or who ought to work il
they are not now so engaged.
Il regard this resolution as another
outcrOpping OF the general cropping for

KUPIHEA FOUND
in grave FAULT
BY GRAND JURORS
No Indictment Possible Against
Accused Legislator Still
Holding Seat

AS far as the territorial grand jury
is concerned. the matter regarding
Representative d. NJ. kupihea is rest
ing. Grave charges are made against
the legislator, however, in a report
which that body filed with Circuit
Judge Ashford yesterday. In sum
mary, the report is that Kupihea not
only aided materially in the downfall
Of the children under his care and
that he used indecent language in
their presence, but that he allowed
the children to be present at orgies
held on premises under his control.
No indictment was returned against
Kupihea as the city and county attor-
ney informed the jury that there is no
law under which the legislator might
be held to account. A committee OF
jurymen composed of William Vein
rich, William Henry, James T. Taylor
and w. H. Charlock, appointed to in
vestfgate the Kupihea charges, incor-
p rated the following report in the
general report of the jury:
"Mr. J. H. Fiddes. Foreman, Terri
torial Grand Jury.
DedT 0II - lie uluSI olSHcu -COIIl-
mittee, appointed to review the find
ing5 pertaining to the conduct of d.
n. Kupihea in regard to the treat
ment of his daughter and niece. begs
to leave to report as follows:
THAT, upon the evidence submitted,
we are convinced that D. NJ. Kupihea
aided materially in the downfall Of
the children under his care, from the
time he received them from the indus
trial school.
THE evidence, while somewhat con-
Trajectory, is sufficient in our minds,
to show that D. Nj. Kupihea continued
to neglect the children in every way.
He was entirely Indifferent as to their
associates and surroundings; allowed
most indecent language to be used in
their presence without protest; and
has permitted debauches to take
place, from time to time on his prem
ises or the premises under his con-
trol-the children being present with
out any objection on his part.
The grand jury has been informed
from the city and county attorneys
Office that there is no law by which
kupihea can be indicted under the
evidence obtained by the grand jury.
In view of this fact, the grand jury
has drawn up the above report that
it may appear on record as having
performed its duty.
:s1t is to be regretted that, at the
present time, no such law exists, but
it is to be hoped that the present leg
islature will enact law to cover any
cases of this nature, which may oc'
cur in the future, whereby the offend.
er may be punished by severe pun
ishment.
A true bill was returned against
Chuck Hoo, Chinese, charging him
with first degree murder. The Chi.
ilese is alleged to have struck a Chi
nese boy eight years old with stool
from which injuries he died Monday
at the Children's hospital. The police
and coroner's jury had previously fail
ed to make out a case against him.

ENCOURAGE THE RIFLE CLUB.

President Wilson said in one of his rcccn
messages to Congress-:
eve must depend in every time of nationa
peril in the future as in the past not upon
standing army, nor yet upon reserve army
hut upon citizenry trained and accustomed
to arms
The Honolulu Rife Club is composed of Ell
ergetic and responsible citizens of this city
who are accustomng themselves to arms anC
devoting some of their limited spare time tC
outdoor shoots. 1t has been organized for siN
months, but owing to the fact that its rifles
and ammunition arrived only late in December
it's outdoor work is really just beginning.
At the outset the need of suitable range is
keenly felt.
The club is now we'll organized, the members
about 80 in number, being employees of the
VARIOUS business firms in Honolulu.
Rifles are furnished free by the L. S. govern
ment, one for each five members, also 12O cart
ridges per member per year. Additional am
munition is purchased from the Government al
$15 per 1000. AS the government allowance
will permit each member to shoot only 10 shots
per month, it is readily seen that the proper
training of group of citizen rihemen is i'm
possible on such an allowance therefore the
club members each purchase from thirty to
fifty rounds each day of practise, at a cost of
from As cents to IS cents. 1t is apparent that
the club members themselves bear the greater
part of the expense of practise. The use OF
Fort Shafter range costs the club Sc per one
half day, and were this range always obtain
able there would be no objection to this charge.
One dollar is paid to each of four markers, as
four targets are usually used, and So to the
officer in charge Of the range on day of prac-
tise,. This is paid out of the club funds.
The club is DESTROYS of having range which
may be used exclusively by citizen rife clubs
now being formed in Honolulu, and the Homo
lulu Rife Club stands ready to construct a
suitable range, furnish all materials necessary,
it can obtain term lease on suitable
ground, which the club officers believe can be
obtained adjacent to Fort Ruger, or at the
side of Diamond Head. ! {
If the military authorities here will favor
such range established at this place, the club
will endeavor to secure permission from the
of war for it's use.
A suitable range must be close to street car
service, and as the Rapid Transit Company
may establish an auto bus extension service
from the Kaimuki car line to Fort Ruger, the
windward or rear slope of Diamond Head
would be readily accessible. This location
would be far enough away from the officers
residences at Fort Ruger not to annoy the fam
lies and is perfectly safe range, as all shoot
ing would be toward the hill side, and as this
is restricted territory there would be absolutely
no danger of injury from ricochet bullets.

THE CASE OF K1sH1.

.eThe case of Kishi, now worrying the sen
ate and territorial board of immigration, is a
peculiar. one. The federal government should
pay the 81 1000 to indemnify the Japanese ca
terer for feeding immigrants here four years
ago, but the federal government is hard to
move in matters of this sort This territory,
acknowledging no legal obligation to pay Kishi,
nevertheless through the legislature and gov
ernor isSwilling to appropriate and has approps
rated the money. The territorial auditor, how
ever, refuses to pay out on the warrant unless
the bill is O. K d by the territorial board of i'm:
migration, and the board of immigration can It
@. X. the bill because it has no legal right to do
SO, the financial obligation resting with the
