BIRD GONE; HE MoURNs,

Hilario, one Of Bill Jarrett's Fill
pino boys who works at the capitol
grounds moving grass or watering
the lawn, is mourning the loss of g
pet mynah bird.
The little fellow left his cage on
registration day and Hiario has been
seeking high and low for him ever
since. 1t is evident that somebody
from the big crowd at the capitol
grounds that day discovered the
feathered captive under the band
stand where Hilario kept him during
working hours, and either carried him
away or turned him loose.
When Hilario went to the band
stand next morning to bring out his
little pet for the morning bath he
found him gone, and straightway the
light went from HiIario's eye and he
began to grieVe as one grieves over
the loss of a good dog. In fact the
name Moroso would fit him better
now than that other name his mother
gave him back in far off Cebu
Perhaps it was Hilario's innate fond
ness for the outdoor folk, and perhaps
it was still a closer connection be-
tween the imprisoned man and the i'm
prisoned bird. However that may be,

ooh Honolulu, Pearl of the Seas!
We love thy land, we love thy leas,
We love thy homes, We love thy hills,
We love thy rocks, we love thy rills.
Thy Royal Palms sweet welcome give
To all who come with thee to live;
To those who come for fond, short

The same sweet word we hear them
say.
" Aloha o. from breeze and bough,
From hill and dale the song comes
now,
AS to our homes far DER the sea
We turn our grateful hearts from thee.
Here would we dwell; here would
we stay;
Here would we spend our life's brief
day;
But far from home the call we hear,
Come back to me- so-'Good-bye,
Dear
The hour has come that we must
part;
The pangs we feel Of saddened heart:
Aloha sweet gives parting cheer;
We're going home, so-'Good-bye,

Order Whiskey Out of Oahu


If there was ever garrison town or a town near
garrison that was fit subject for presidential
proclamation wiping out the traffic n Intoxicating
liquors. Honolulu is the place.
, If any evidence were required to establish the
utter lack Of decency or proper respect for the law
to be found in the liquor traffic. Honolulu fur
nishes it,
If anyone wishes to understand what pure, IN
adulterated buncombe is behind the claims to vir-
tue and regard for the law made by saloons and
liquor trafickers. he has only to study the illicit
booze record Of Honolulu, day by day.
Each days history shows the liquor business NOV
irg steadily downward to a lower average of degra-
dation.
No man of the world is fooled by the virtuous
horror of respectable whisky dealers that the illicit
trade among the soldiers of the United States army
has steadily increased. What have these dealers
done to aid in the enforcement of the law? Where
Is their influence felt? Are they upholding the law
or are they criticsing it and giving moral aid to
the supply sources Of "blind pigs" and booze de-
bauches?
Every passing day puts a blacker tinge on the
record of the liquor traffic in this city, and the
smirch is on the character skirts of everyone con-
nected with the traffic.
natural assumption might be that the respec-
Idue WHISKY dealers could combine and bring their
powerful influence to bear for the assistance of the
authorities. There is nothing to indicate no vever
that such men, if there is responsibility associated
with any phase of the liquor business have stirred
themselves formed any volunteer committees to CO.
operate with the authorities to the end that bold
violation and tricky evasion of the law shall cease
The men connected with the liquor business in
Honolulu have had their chance
They know the law. They know that the regula-
ton against liquor in the army was not the result
OF a fad or the temporary act of a crank
Whisky has been ordered out of the United States
army. The American citizen who violates the order
is an enemy. His status is clear. So is the record
OF the illicit traffic clear in its rottenness The atti
tude of the dealer is not owe will help you" but
r. sher is it "Why don't you ginks enforce your
law?"
Since the liquor dealers of this city and county
have conclusively proved that they are unable to
keep their merchandise out of the army, the only
sensible solution is to order whisky and all of it's
variations in intoxicating liquor out the island
of Oahu
Liquor can be ordered out of Oahu by the pres
ident. 1t should be done.

Mr.. Soldier was only half civilian in

CARTER BARRED FROM
VISITING PEARL HARB0R

George R. Carter. former governor
of Hawaii and a member Of the navy
league, was Tuesday refused admis-
sion to Pearl Harbor. He telephoned
down to the station, stating that he
was a member Of the Navy league and
was informed that orders had been re-
ceived from Washington barring Navy
leaguers from the station.
This is the local touch to a sweep
ing announcement few days ago that
Josephus Daniels, secretary Of the
navy, cut loose from the Navy league
as result Of allegations directed
against the navy department in con-
nection with the Mare Island explo-
sion investigation.

This may seem like stating truth so selfevldent
that to repeat it among sensible people is absolute
" silly Yet the record of this city and OF men
otherwise capable but who lose all measure of com
mon sense when they 60 into politics, shows that it
is indeed necessary to not only state these plain
and primary truths but also to reiterate them time
without number until they are worked deeply into
the second nature of the average citizen.
You cannot make an accountant out of coal
HEAVIER any more than you can make coal heaver
out of an ar Uuntant. Yet that furnishes an exam
pie of what the average political henchman in Homo
lulu is forever trying to do 1t is what fosters the
curse of incompetence against which every honest
and loyal citizen rebels 1t is what is running the
future as we'll as the reputation Of an element in
honolulu and Hawaii that means we'll, but not
sknowing how" becomes the tool of selfish and dis
loyal political schemers.
Just how long the period Of education will be, no
one predict with certainty but sooner or later
the average man of Honolulu will come to know
that success can only be attained through men and
officials of ability, men who know how. And the
official who places in the public service man sat
isfying the demands of partizanship but rank
failure to capacity to perform his allotted task
that official will be branded an enemy of decent
government, blot on the good name Of his home
town, and he will be reegated to the civic garbage

For Young Soldiers

In the telegraphic report of the Boston Common
not on July l. when socialistic meeting and pro-
session were broken up "by persons acting without
legal authority" il was intimated that soldiers join
ID with civilians in the affair. The words given in
quotation marks above are from general orders re-
lating to the episode, issued by Gen., Robert L.
Howe, commanding the Northeastern department
which, however clear men in the federal service
from any share in the disturbance While con.
siderable number Of men in uniform participated
in "this illegal action" the orders state that no
arrests of men in uniform were made, and diligent
inquiry made by the department commander had
failed to reveal the name of single soldier of the
regular army or Of the national guard in the fed
eral service participating therein"
Inasmuch, however, as many young soldiers had
recently Joined the colors, the commander deemed
It advisable to call the attention of all command
ing officers Ito the necessity of impressing upon
these young soldiers their proper relations to civil
authority while in the military service. He goes
on to show that, when a man enlsts in the United
States service not only is he amenable to the same
laws which bind other citizens but in addition there
is imposed upon him military code far more dras
tic than any to which other citizens are subject
War conditions thus far in the United States, Gen
Howe says, do not "alter in any DECREE the peace
time relationship which the army bears to our civil
p0pulauon an case or invasion or imminent dan
ger thereof it may well be that lin the midst of
arms the laws are SILENT but such conditions do
not obtain at the present time in our own country
Further along in the ORDERS it is stated that under
the present conditions the military authorities will
not even insist upon their technical rights given BY
the 74th article Of war; ITO refuse the surrender of
soldiers accused of crimes or offenses committed
within the geographical limits of state.
"The one fundamental thing which differentiates
an army from mob is discipline" the orders say.
military discipline has the same relation to armed
forces that hydraulic cement has to the various ee-
ments going to make up reinforced concrete 1t is
the thing which binds them solidly and compaetly
into one element and insures the cheerful subor-
dination of ones self to the public welfare" Elk
pressing his pleasure that no soldier in the federal
service participated in the riot on Boston Common
Gen. Howe makes the following observations.
which should be remembered by every young man
joining the colors:
The young soldier must be taught at the begin
ming of his military career that under no circum-
stances is he ever to be the Judge of whether civil
authorities have erred in granting permission for
assemblages and professions, which may seem to
him to violate the very spirit of our institutions
The soldier must be made clearly to understand
that if his services required legal methods have
been provided for obtaining them, ara when so re-
