WAILUKU, Maui. July 16.-Work
has started on the $250,00o West
breakwater project for Kahului har
Dor The big cranes Of the kauutui
Railroad Company, which has tie
contract for the lob. was moved across
the county road, and rock has begun
to drop into the bay. BY next week
the rock trains will be running on
schedule and the second great wall

The start of operations at the con-
pany's big quarry mauka OF Camp ).
was the occasion Of some little Cere
mony last Monday afternoon, when
the first big blast was fired and hun
dreds of tons Of trap rock which will
go into the breakwater toppled down
beside the tracks.
Superintendent william Walsh had
had the shot prepared with unusual
care. The great face Of the quarry
had been undermined by tunneling,
and under 1t was tamped nearly 4 ton
Of dynamite, besides several hundred
pounds Of black powder. Electric
wires to explode the charge had been
laid well back on the bluff above the
quarry.
1t had been Mr.. Walsh's intention
to have the blast fired by Ftank F.
Baldwin, president Of the railroad
company, but Mr.. Baldwin delegated
this honor to A. B. Babcock OF Chit

HoIIwee, The Sacrifice

Germanv's press under the hand Of the military
masters and the eye Of the military censors, has
repudated Won Bethmann. Howeg.
Under orders to explain to the people his dlsmls-
sal from office and to give the appearance OF there
by securing some reform, the German papers are
bitterly attacking the late chancellor. They are
blaming on him Germanys military reverses, poll
teal misfortunes and economic burdens.
What grim commentary it is on Germanys plight
that the papers now call Hollweg to account for the
war with the United States!
The vossiche Zetung declares that the chancei'
lor "played a double game with the United states
and made war inevitable"
6 During the months when the United States stroVe
by every honorable means to avert break with ger
many tolerated defiance Of international law; SUI
fered insult bore malicious plotting and dangerous
MISUNDERSTANDING this time the German press had
no praise too high for the chancellor and his conouct
Of diplomatic exchanges with America. Then all
the blame was Americas Then all the double game
was Americas. Then all the war.making was Amer
ica's. The vossiche Zeitung and the other organs
Of Kultur accused President Wilson of duplicity ;
of "paying fast and loose with the destnes OF great
peoples" They upheld their government and their
chancellor.
And now, because Hollweg carried out German
poIcies and sought to satisfy German imperial am
ht;ons he ia broken on the wheel Of war and inter
national politics. "None so poor to do him reSer'
ence"
Faint glimmerings Of encouragement from the Al
lies NAV be seen In the concerted press attack on
Hollweg. The keynote Of this attack is that Hoii.
veg prevented Germany from advancing toward
peace. Perhaps the government knows that peace
without German victory ID inevitable and is prepar
ing for early concessions by Diminishing Hoiiweg
and thus Offering the plausible explanation that
HolIweg has stood in the way OF peace.

The quickest way to make Oahu dry is TO pro-

No Honolulu citizen can walk about the streets

There are two good reasons why all Oahu should
be made dry. One is that the community cannot
exist lawfully halEwet and half-dry. In q small,
selfcentered community such as Honolulu, tits dis
criminatory, it is unjust, that civilians may 60

Of saloons while the soldier must stay outside. The
second reason is that the present system il abso-

MORGAN TRIAL
DATE IS SET FOR
DECEMBER 10
Prosecuting Attorney Keep
ing His Own Counsel
Regarding Details

Endeavoring to avoid showing their
card, both the state and defense had a
legal battle in the Willie G. Morgan
murder case this morning in Circuit
court before Judge Raymond.
After some parleylng on the part Of
the attorneys the case was set for trial
on Monday, December 10. In every
step taken the state and defense were
very cautious in their procedure. Major
| M, NJ. Nelly tried his level best to coax
cut the information as to whether Nor
gan or Walter Kanutte would be tried
on joint indictment or not. Attorney
James A. Meredith, who represents
Kanutte,, also followed the proceeding
very closely.
Judge Raymond said that the sever.
ance could be made on the dly Of trial,
but that the court would not direct the
state to impart the information as to
which defendant would be tried first.
Prosecuting Attorney Walter r,
iIaggerty said that It vas up to the de.
Tense to take the next step and not up
Ito the state. He intimated that the
election OF the severance could be
r1ade on the day that the case would
come up for trial.
After the trial date had been set Ma.
ior Nelly had private conference with
Morgan. Both chatted freely.
Morgan and Kanutte were both in
tho court room occupying seats inside
Of the bar railing. Both men appeared
to be we'll composed and were deeply
interested in every legal step taken.
Later the seats became exhausted and
Morgan moved up aside Of Kanutte,
but neither man conyersed, having
their eyes set on the front OF the court
room most of the time.
Judge Raymond said, "Mr. Morgan
will you please move up chair" when
he transferred his place of sitting to
beside Kanutte. Both men paid close
attention as the court asked the Jurors
the necessary questions in the case of
the State VS.. Milton Starks, charged
with assaulting and robbing Tony
Coon. AS the morning wore on both
Morgan and Kanutte gave signs OF
WEAKNESS and sank into their chairs
IN semi-reclining position.
