EDITOR r0H Sss 'o 3ss The ADVFEIRs aVlTn7
Charles Il. H,lohes

TINE approaching national campaign is to be
u fought out on higher grounds than has char
acterized any recent political struggle, because
Charles Evans Hughes, the Republican standard
bearer, himself represents the highest type. Of
American citizenship
AS boy he was taught in the public schools
in the small, democratic colleges, and trained to
his profession in the office of good, high prin-
ciped law firm.
1t was not his Republicanism, nor was it politics
that made him governor of New York. 1t was
the brilliant and answering manner in which he
exposed the corrupt influence of great wealth and
brought into the light the previously tabooed
question of how monopolistc trusts earned their
money and how the great life insurance compa-
MES squandered enormous that really be-
longed to the premium payers.
1t was because Charles +, Hughes exposed the
unprincped contributions of men like George w
Perkins to both great political parties that the
people insisted making him governor. And
when he was governor it was Charles +. Hughes
that was governor and not some political boss who
pulled the strings
Justice Hughes in breaking his silence, makes
plain his intense devotion to America, his adher-
ence to every principle for which "Americanism
stands His message of acceptance to the con
Venton is informed with the spirit of patriotism,
and offers possible excuse pretext for. fur
Their factiona strife. He indorses the platform of
the party unreservedly, and supplements its dec
laration of policy with expressions of his own
which give point and strength to every essential
demand, every doctrine therein enunciated.
The Philadelphia Public Ledger thus voices the
supreme confidence of the American people in the
man who must lead the nation through the
troubled years that just ahead:
". The circumstances under which the call to
Hughes, and in which he has consented to step down
from the Supreme Court bench-a post less honor.
able and dignifed than that of Presidents full Of
profound significance the nation 1t is remembered
that four years ago Mr. Hughes, in terms that left
room for doubt, refused to allow his name to 60
before the national convention. ,1 .
Today, however the conditions very different.
The nation faces problems and duties, and is placed
with respect to its relations with the outer world that
the unanimous call of the Republican party offers
opportunity for unique service, imposes exigent
duty and a responsibility to which Justice Hughes,
patriot, felt that he had right to close his
His response therefore justifes the confidence which
the people have reposcd in him and makes his frank
and immediate acceptance doubly welcome to the
nation.

MONSTER TRACTORS
FOROAHU'S Defense
Six Of Famous Caterpillar Type
win Be Used To Transport
." Guns

Aboard the Lurline arriving tomor,
row morning are six caterpillar
trastors made by the Holt Manufac,
turing Company of Stockton, Cslifor,
MIA. Three of these tractors will be
used in the Island by the y. 8. Army
for transporting the six,inch guns from
place to place. In case OF attack these
mammoth guns can be quickly hauled
with great ease to any point Of attack,
Each one Of these tractors has q
rating of AZ horsepower. These trsc.
tors were selected by Uncle Sam for
this use after exhaustive tests en- all
makes of power tractors, The cDmpe-
tition was held at Fort Sill, Oklahoma,
last spring, and during the test 'ae
machines trailing the guns were run at
top speed across marshes, bitches, rocks
and very soft ground. The tractor Sc
lected, known commonly as the "cater-
pillar" derives its name from the pc.
culiar method Of locomotiOn. II lays
down its own track to run on and after
it has passed over it, picks it up again
The government expects to have a
number Of these tractors in this island
in the near future, thus strengthening
the mobile forces Of this group Of for.
tificatiohs. Hundreds of these machines
are being used on the battlefelds in
Europe by the eontending armies.
Duplicates Of these machines are be,
ing used in the canefelds around he
Islands.

Headless Government

III ONOLULU has a headless government. The
i mayor has no power He can do nothing
TN the beginning of the experiment with MUM
cipal government it was thought best for the in
tefests OF all concerned that this course should
be followed and hence the mayorality was bereft
of all real power. The responsibility for good
government has been parcelled out among dozen
independent departments, the heads of which are
in some instances elective and in some appointive
The appointive departmental heads are response
BILE to elected board of supervisors, but the
! elected heads responsible to God alone.
| No complex and complicated system OF
municipal government could have been devised.
Honolulu has the most round about way of not
doing what the people want done, From the
standpoint OF negative results our government is
twellnigh perfect But how long is that going to
satisfy the needs of big modern rapidly growing
.ity?
| The problem of government is really simpler
than most men imagine. The trouble is that most
men look at it through the vision Of self-nterest
alene-what will the government do for me ?
| What can I get cut of it? Honolulu needs a
boss, fora man that can live up to the speci-
6cations that term implies usually sees it that
the average citizen gets at least part Of what he
thinks he wants, and if everybody is satisfied that
is good government.
| What this city now has is collection of little
bosses, and some citizens get what they want,
but mostly they don't. Honolulu has forever
graduated from the waterfront sugar planters
home town. This is manufacturing CITY, fact
that few citizens realize. 1t is a city of great
unrelated interests-the Mecca of thousands of
tourists, the trading and supply center of the
largest army post in the United States city of
schools and colleges, financial center, the best
coaling port in the Pacific ocean-in word Ho-
nolulu has forever Outgrown the insular village
stage of its existence.
But in the form of municipal government Ho-
nolulu is like Rip Van Wrinkle just before he
awakened from his twenty years sleep. The
question now is, isn't it about time to end the
nap? Honolulu needs modern form of municipal
government. The only way to get it is to elect
men to the next Legislature that can see the neces-
Sity and will provide the means Money is not
what is needed. Men are willing to paw for good
government. But they must get what the city
demands orderly, prompt and efficient service from
all public servants.
We want government with responsible head,
an executive whom commend when he
does good work, condemn when he falls down
What Honolulu is up against now is HYDRA
headed, formless and irresponsible limitation of
commission government 1t does not work. No
one is satisfied 1t spends the money, but that
is not all there is in good government

The Bitter Fruit

NNE explanation of affairs south of the Rio
~ Grande is that the administration dared take
no action because it had made it possible for Car
rama to obtain tens of millions OF rounds of anu
milton, artillery, machine guns, rifles, hospital sup
plies, and rations for his army ostensbly that the
"de facto government" of Mexico could suppress
Villa and Villas outlaws. There is not one
shadow Of doubt that the Carranzista troops
treacherously wiped out the 10th Cavalry squad
rons with American made bullets. Neither guns
nor ammunition would have been in the possession
OF these Mexican assassins had President Wilson
needed the advice, protests and warnings of the
American people.
We have prepared Mexico for war and are our
selves unprepared. We have allowed national pre-
Paredness to be made political issue. We have
stood by with folded hands while traitors created
an impossible situation. Now the bitter fruit of
indecisioh, vaciation and almost incredible blum
derirg must be plucked and eaten.
The Democratic party is now asking the Amer
lean people to entrust it with the conduct of gov
eminent another four years, because it has kept
the United States out of war" God help us. There
are worse things than war.

JUDGE Quinn,

LION. GLEN c. QUINN, circuit judge of the
i Fourth Circuit at Hilo, is winning lot OF
support and friendship that was not his when he
was candidate for the job which politics pre-
vented Judge Parsons from holding after long
and eminently satisfactory service. 1t comes not
only from his personal friends, but from many
who were little bit minus kanalua about his
fitness for the place on the bench, and they are
Isympathcticay watching the signs that he is
making good in his high position.
Many of them patronized Quinn when he drove
la hack, and knew him as baiff of the circuit
court All the time he was working overtime with
law books, with the result that he passed his
examination for admission to the bar and gradu-
ated from the hack business and the job of bailiff
to that of practitioner.
1t is a considerable rise to the circuit bench
from ack-driving, and with all that sympathy
which the world has for the man whose own work
brings him forward, Judge Quinn is given credit,
regardless of politics, for remarkable advance
by his own efforts. II appears from the record
so far that he has made it probable that he will
disappoint Of those who opposed his
selection.

Wise Course To Pursue

I is in the interest of good government that
there should be the fullest publicity in all
matters relating to the conduct of the public bust
ness. Hence our hearty commentator is ex-
tended to Supervisor Francis NJ Hatch for the
stand he has taken that hereafter there shall be
no executive sessions Of the board nor caucuses
behind closed doors.
Frank publicity will make friends for the city
officials 1t is step in the right direction for if
the city officials take the taxpayers and citizens
into their confidence the citizens will have con-
fdence in their officials. The public pays the
bills and they have the right to know what is
being done by their representatives.
