MURRAY STILL THINKS
PEOPLE WASTE, WATER
DURING RAINY, SPELL

Figures submitted from Honolulu's
pumping plants, showing the amount
of water delivered each day still look
queer, according to Water Manager
Harry e. Murray, who has been check
ing over the figures and making COM
parsons between the amounts of wa
ter used In different sections of the
city in the wet and in the dry season.
Averages taken of the various days
pumpings during the dry season show
approximately is, 100000 gallons, while
those of the recent wet season show
to date 100000 gallons approximate
ly. A difference between the two
averages shows decrease Of 100000
gallons.
Evidently people are shutting off
slightly on the use of water for irriga-
tion purposes, but the difference is too
slight in the opinion of the water man.
ager, who says that there is still pos
sibility of waste
Manoa and Kaimuki, residential dis
tricts, show the largest difference in
water usage between the wet and dry
seasons, while Nuuanu shows no diff
ference at all, and the difference in
the business section is very slight.

THE NOTE AND THE RESIGNATION.

Since the resignation from the Cabinet as
Secretary Of State by Mr.. Bryan and the pubh-
cation Of the second note to Germany on the
sinking Of the Lusitania the newspapers OF the
country have been busy in discussing both sub
5ects and the discussion still goes on with COM
plete support Of the course Of President wilson.
Since the publication Of Mr.. Bryan's letter to
the erman-Amercans the tone OF newspapers
which were extremely bitter towards him have
measurably softened. Some papers IN the coun-
try which have been noted in the years for crltl-
cism Of Mr.. Bryan almost any old pretext
have made use Of the present matter to turn
loose their vials of wrath upon him, finding no
good in him at all Other papers, while depre-
eating the course he has taken have agreed that
it engaged in upon principle, that While
they were at entire disagreement with him, they
regarded his that of brave and courage
Gus man. without ulterior motive.
The country had made up it's mind even be-
fore the issuance Of the second note to Germany
that it going to abide by the Of Presi-
dent Wilson, that his wisdom and knowledge
could safely be trusted to handle the situation.
On the issuance of the note it found that
they amply justified in the faith they had
put in the President that the note he had dis
patched to Germany not invitation to
upon the position taken in the previous note,
that humanity and international law prevail.
that American shipmasters and American pas
sengers find hindrance from Germany in the
of the open SEAS Humanity and American
rights form the keynote Of the note. and the
gravity of the matter is impressed upon Ger
many, which is called upon to give assurance
that there will be attempt at the abbrevia-
ton Of these.
that ne has asked Of Germany only those things
he should have asked. He has put the position
of the United States before the world in such
calm and courageous words to win admiration
and demand hearing from Germany. That
nation in making its answer should hold in mind
that the note of President Wilson is underwrit-
ten by the people of the United States that it is

JAPANESE AID NEEDED.

There is conjecture over the country to
the value OF the Japanese to the Allies in the
war. When Japan first went in there we're some
German warships and Kiao Chow in China to
be looked after, but the since the Japanese
forces have attended to those matters there has
been silence to anything being done by ia
pan in behalf of the Allies
1t now appears that Japan has been the sup
ply depot for keeping the Russians in equipment
and munitions of war, that while Japan has
been engaged in affairs with China it has held
up shipments to the Russians. that by rea-
son of lack of war material is to be found the
cause Of the sudden collapse of the victorious
westward march Of the Russian armies, that at
Przemysl the absolute need of war material was
prime factor in Russian defeat.
At the beginning Of the Japan was ready
to sell material to Russia, and it is said
that it furnished ammunition, and small arms
and after the successful siege of kiao Chow
that it sent cannon to Russia, the japanese fac
tories and metal works executing rapidly great
contracts for that country. When the negotia-
tions with China reached critical phase the
Japanese said to have held up shipments of
military supplies to Russia precautionary
measure and the effect felt almost at once
the far Russian front, for Russia has limited
manufacturing facilities and it's armies hal
about exhausted all reserve ammunition.
Now that Japan can again send POWDER shot
and she'll to Russia the armies Of that nation
may be able to make better showing than they
have been making Of late. No army can get
along without fighting material and if the re-
port as to Japan and munitions of is correct
then it offers one reason for the backward move
ment of the Russian army which had been push
ing into Galicia.

bARbED WIRE
VALUABLE IN
DEFENSIVE FIGHT
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, July 23.-The War Office,
as well as the Admiralty, is receiving
and sitting proposals of new devices,
covering the whole range of land war
fare, guns, explosives, shields, movable
armored fortresses of attack and de-
tense together with plans for the
great utilization Of some Of the de-
lenses already known, such as barbed
wire.
This one item of barbed wire is
working almost revolution in the &C
cepted ideas of land warfare One of
the chief officers, after returning from
the trenches in Flanders, said that at
many points of the line he saw barbed
wire laced into an almost solid wave
a mile in front of the trenches.
"Such a lace-work is absolute pro-
lection against sudden attack" said
he, "and it can hold back large force
long enough to permit the trenches to
make every preparation and bring up
all needed reserves to overcome the
onslaught 1t may even do away en-
tirely with frontier fertilization as an
intricate network of wire will hold
back sudden incursion across
border more effectively than a massive
fortress costing vast sums and capa-
BILE of easy destruction by the monster
siege guns now in use"
AS soon as the Germans began to
use poison gases against the Allies
Sir William Ramsay, one of Britain's
foremost scientists, went to Flanders,

made study of the effects of the gas
es and returned with complete data,
analyses of this chemical constituents
and antidotes for the fumes. German
dedvices for throwing liquid fire are
considered hardly less deadly than the
asphyxiating bombs. Some receptacles
for them are ccarried on mems backs
like fire extinguishers; others are
small metal cylinders carried in the
hand. One of the devices proposed to
the British government was an "F-
Ray" operated electrically on the prin
ciple of wireless telegraphy, and cap
able of stunning a whole army with n
vast electric shock.
