REsENTs POLICE sLuR

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Referring to your article OF
September II, 1917, affecting the SOL
diers and "Bloodtown." Since when
have the soldiers Of Schofeld Bar
racks turned beats, that they should
so out of their way to insult the
omen of that town, or any other, TOT
that matter?
It is evident, from the tone OF the
article, that the said officers Of the
territory do not want the soldiers in
Hawaii, we'll it is a "cinch" that the
soldiers are not in love with the Is
lands, or the treatment accorded them
here; we would be only too glad to
get away if possible, or is 1t that the
peace officers are rewarded, because
they, at last, have to wake up and
do little Of the duty that the sol
diers have been so kind to do for them
the last few months.
We all know the class of people
that naturally migrate to town sit.
uated as close to a big body of men
as Schofield is, is not of the best, and
l think that this paper would use a
little common sense and not put all
the blame for disturbances to the sol
diers.
They are sure knocked enough
without the papers giving them the
worst of 1t.
Hoping to see this published in the
paper soon,
I remain,
CPL. A. CANTOS,

warn SOLDIERS
AGAINSTDRUGS

In a memorandum of the Hawaiian
department just issued by order OF
Brig. Gen. John p. Wiser, department
commander, army men are warned
against the use OF narcotic drugs.
Following is q brief outline Of the
order:
The Harrison Narcotic Act Of De
cemoer II, 1914, provides In Section
3, with reference to opium and Co
cain states. -.
That it shall be unlawful for any
person not registered under the pro-
visions OF this act-to have in his
possession OF control any Of the afore'
said drugs; and such possession or
control shall be presumptive evidence
of the violation of this section-the
burden Of proof of any exemption
shall be upon the defendant
And in Section 3:
That any person who violates
any Of the requirements Of this act
shall, on conviction, be fined not more
than $4,000, or be imprisoned for not
more than FIVE years, or both. IN the
discretion of the court
Any soldier may be tried under
the 96th article of war by court mar
tial for violation Of the above act.
In order to protect young soldiers
from the insidious ravages of the
opium habit; and, at the same time,
to prevent lukewarm soldiers from
seizing upon opium as q means OF
securing separation from the service
In time Of war, the following Is Or
dered:
Soldiers are hereby forbidden to
use opium except when prescribed by
any army medical officer, to have in
their possession, or to enter Except in
pursuance Of military duty requiring
such entry any room, building, or
other place, where opium Is unlawfully
sold, supplied, bartered, given away, or
used. .....-
Ignorance of the nature of such
place shall not be considered a de-
tense for any accused on trial before
q court martial. It is hereby made
the duty of each person in the mill.
tary service to ascertain the nature
of any such place before entering
therein. :........
"All violations of this order will be
tried by general court martial; and
no such court martial will be con.
sidered to have done its duty If on
conviction OF the violation of any part
Of this order, it shall adjudge a SEN
tence Of less than dishonorable dis
charge and confinement for three
years at hard labor"

LIGHTING BY WIND NOT NEW.

J Electric lighting by wind power is nothing new
for Honolulu. An aeromotor lighting plant was
Installed at the Diamond Head residence of the
late James Campbell many years ago by the late
James Cassidy, manager of the old Bell Telephone
company. When the wind was blowing the electric
current was collected in a storage battery The
electrician had curious problem to solve. Shortly
before that time a wealthy man in the western
states had installed plant of this kind but it was
a failure because, when the battery became charged
over certain point, the current kicked back and
turned the windmill against the wind until its
strength was exhausted. This produced deadlock
"a bad as that existing in Honolulu today between
the mayors appointing and the supervisors APPROX
