they were putting the kbosh on plot in India.
The captured men are supposed to have been
concerned in the plot 1t is also stated that
Consul Franz Bopp the German official at San
Francisco was participant in the con
ispiracy.
Consul Bopp figured very prominently W
Iprint early this year. On February 8 he was
indicted By federal grand jury under the
Sherman antitrust law He was charged with
heading conspiracy to cripple the output and
shipment Of munitions of war in the United
States. While the grand jury was handing
down the indictments it made a thorough job
of it by finding SO true bills, duplicating many
others besides Bopp. 1t was in this probe that
the movements of the steamer Sacramento, for
merly the Ger1nan-owned steamer Alexandria,
came under particular scrutiny. She was al
legged to have supplied German warship in
the Pacific with coal taken from an American
port . -. III
Though Consul Bopp figured in the limelight
of the press good deal about that time, moth
ing was brought forward to connect him with
a plot to start an Indian mutiny. A despatch
from San Francisco yesterday quotes depart
ment of justice officials as saying they have no
knowledge that Bopp was concerned in the
Indian plot" He must'have been very busy
man with all these conspiracies.
Honoluu's own war-plot, concerning alleged
recruiting of soldiers here for service with the
British colors, has rather gone to sleep. 1t is.
supposed to be under investigation by the fed
eral grand jury and report is expected at an
early date The difficulties which number of
u. S. officers on the mainland have had in
proving their eases against the slippery
''plotters'' shows that while there has been
much smoke of highly, suspicious character,
the fire has been hard to locate.

A stirring 19-minute talk was de-
livered by Inspectors General George
Raymond of the territorial schools to
the night school students of the Y. M.
c. A. at-their regular Thursday even
ing assembly last evening, on the
subject of the use of educational ia
cilities.
Mr.. Raymond surprised his hearers
by saying that he advocated the fire.
quent use of newspapers by teachers
in classroom instruction with partic.
ular reference to lessons on the iniqui-
ties of the alcohol habit The dan
gers of alcohol is one of the subjects
that all schools are requested by the
National Educational Association to
treat of in the regular curriculum, and
Mr.. Raymond stated that in his search
for proper textbooks on this subject
he could find none to equal the stories
that occur almost daily in the news
papers. And he continued along this
line by declaring that in his opinion
few people read newspaper stories so
as to get the best and the most of
the lessons contained therein. He
urged his hearers to develop a more
thorough reading habit, and especially
urged them to make more frequent
use of the public library.

cooperation, coordination, and loyalty

LOGIC OR GOOD FAITH AT FAULT.

1t is no palIiaton for Germany's conduct OF
her submarine campaign to say that the Ger
mans are driven to it by the British blockade
The lengths to which the British are carry
ing their blockade, in their interference with
neutral commerce. constitute international
lawlessness and are repugnant to America but
do not justify Germany in killing neutrals and
non-combatants.
To all the patient protests of the United
States government the German reply has been
that her submarine campaign was made neces-
sary by British attempts to 'starve Germany
out
Yet in the most notable official utteranee
coming from the Central Powers in all this war,
Chancellor Won Bethmann- Holweg said two
weeks ago:
The crop reports are unanimous in telling
that the winter crops are good, Not since many
years have the reports been as hopeful as they
are now The harvest of 1915 was the worst
since many decades nevertheless our stocks of
bread and corn will not only be sufficient, but
will leave a strong reserve with which to enter
the new Scar
Why, then, the renewal Of the submarine
campaign on March II Why the new order
that all armed merchantmen of the Allies would
be treated as warships, to be sunk without
warming or provision for the safety of non
combatants or neutrals aboardi The chancel-
lor declares it impossible to starve Germany
out. He indicates that Germany has been ear
wing reserves of food for months.
Somewhere leither logicsor good faith is at
fault, just as either logic or good faith is at
Iault when after Berlin's repeated assurances,
the German submarines continue acts in con-
IIaTention of international law and the rights

MAY END RAPID TRANSIT coNTRo-
VERSY.

The details of the proposed arrangement to
settle the Rapid Transit controversy are still
too vague to admit of definite opinion as to its
exact merits If the territorial government and
the Rapid Transit company have agreed or can
agree the public will be inclined to accept their
plan. This is another matter of public business
in which all possible delay should be overcome.
As the plan develops, it should be submitted to
the public and semipublic bodies for consider
alton and criticism
The new charter plan, cutting through all the
mess of old controversy and ENHANCEMENT,
should appeal from the standpoint of simplicity
and rapidity. It's up to the public officials to
see that the city gets a proper return for its
franchise grant.

FINDS JAP ANESE
ON BIG ISLAND
NOT STIRRED UP

Laborers on Hawaii do not appear
to take the interest in enc controversy
on the wage scale for plantations la
Dor they do on Haul. fThei news
papers are making huch of the situa-
ticn, but the condtionf on the Big
Island are entirely different from that
On Maui, and the average laborer pays
no attention to the wage question.
The Hawaii Shinpo says that a
prominent japanese, who has recently
returned from Hilo, reports that while
Japanese newspapers are very active
in their discussion of higher wages
for sugar plantation laborers, the Jap
anese workers on the plantation seem
to be more or less Indifferent to the
issue. This seeming Indifference is
explained by the fact that on the isl
and of Hawaii the Japanese are en-
gagged as cane contractors.
According to the theory of the Wis
itor to Hilo, these old cane contracts
stand in need of revision, for they
were entered into at time when the
price of sugar was at bedrock, where
as now prices have greatly advanced
and prosperity prevails. He main
tains that these contractors are not
realizing the benefits or profits that
they should be enjoying under the
present conditions. j.
On the Big Island there are 10000
acres under cultivation by contractors,
between so and 80 per cent of these
being Japanese. This great area, Of
course, represents great deal when
it comes to difference of profits un-
der present contracts and what would
be realized under agreements revised
to suit the times. ....' '..". = .
