The Commercial Bank

Tuesday was the date for the Com
mercial Bank holding its annual meet
ing for the election OF officers and be-
ginning housekeeping for the new
year.
The reports of the officers showed
that 1916 was the most prosperous
year the bank has ever enjoyed.
If a report of its condition at the
closeof business the day before the
holding of the annual meeting had
been called for. it would have shown
the largest deposit since beginning
business.
Four hundred and twenty out of the
five hundred shares were represented.
The following directors were elect
ed:
W. H. Mckinney, E. A. Osborne, R.
S Hall. J. r. Williams, D. E. McIver,
q. c. Webb, Percy Thigpen, D. c.
Stiles. Jr., and Walter c. Ray.
The directors then elected the fol-
lowing Officers:
E. A. Osborne, president
w. H. McRainey, vice president.
D. E. McIver. vice president.
D. c. Stiles, Jr.. vice president and
cashier.

mote. If the war is TO go on. the Ger
man government will undoubtedly re-
sumo ruthless submarine warfare.
Popular sentiment in Germany favors
it. The German military authority
abandoned it only for reasons of ex-
pediency, but in every German mind
il lodged the conviction that unre-
Stricted submarine warfare will so
cripple Great Britain that the allies
will be beaten. There is no desire in
Germany stronger than the desire to
infiict the full measure of punishment
upon Great Britain for the blockade,
and to starve a powerful enemy that
is absolutely dependent upon the sea
as a means of obtaining food.
Ruthless submarine warfare means
attacking every ship, enemy or neu-
trial, bound to a British port. and sink
ing it without warning. When that
comes, are the American people to
submit or are they to resist by force
il necessary? To submit is TO concede
that in time of war neutralS have no
rights that belligerent is bound to re-
spect and that the United States gov
eminent is endeavoring to maintain
rights which the American people
themselves regard as valueless and fic-
titiOus.
1t is folly to minimize the danger
for the danger is very real. 1t is
worse than follw to pretend that we
have rights if we are not prepared to
maintain them Germany is making
preparations for U-Boat warfare on a
scale never before known. and those
preparations concern the United
States hardly less than they concern
Germany's enemies. Unless there is
some approach to unanimity of senti'
ment as to what course the United
States must follow if Germany re-es-
tablishes the Tirpitz zone, we are in
double danger
Hitherto our policy of neut~3'ity has
been of necessity negative. We have
tried TO hold the balance even, TO pro
tect the rights of our citizens, and to
deal with each invasion of those rights
as 1t arose. The time is coming when
a positive policy will be necessary
when it will be imperative that the
United States say to all belligerents,
Thus far and no farther, at your per
IL"
Unless the American people open
their eyes to that aspect of the presi-
dents note, they are drifting blindly
toward disaster-World.

WHAT COURSE?

When Webster rose in the United
States senate to reply to Hayne, he
began his speech with these words:
MIR. President: When the mariner
has been tossed for many days in
thick weather and on an unknown
sea, he naturally avails himself OF
the first pause in the storm. the ear
Hest glance of the sun. to take his lat
itude and ascertain how far the ele-
ments have driven him from his true
course. Let us initiate this prudence
and, before we float farther on the
waves of this debate, refer to the
point from which we have departed,
that we may at least be able to con-
jetcure where we now are | ask for
the reading of the resolution before
the senate.
President Wilson's note to the bel
ligerent governments was request
for the reading OF the resolution 1t
was an attempt to ascertain our own
latitude and longitude in the midst of
the greatest storm of human history.
Germanys answer makes it evident
that there is little to hope for in the
way of an early restoration of peace.
Had the original German proposal
been submitted in good faith, it is fair
to assume that the German reply to
the president would have contained
sufficiently comprehensive statement
of terms TO insure discussion if not
actual negotiations. Instead, the i'm
perial government insists upon con-
Aference, knowing that the allies have
bafHmptorily refused to go into con-
1s Once in ignorance of the terms that
Germany would advance.
Whatever reply that London and
Paris may formally make to the pres
dent, their answer can hardly reopen
ttR door that Germany has so abrupt
lv closed In the circumstances the
American people must turn their at
tention to the most significant part of
the presidents note. and give serious
consideration to the question of what
this country is to do if the war con-
tinues, as it will. They may as well
face the fact first as last that the sit
nation of the United States may, as
the president intimated be rendered
altogether intolerable." What then?
An intolerable situation admits of only
one line of action.
So long as there were reasonable
grounds for thinking that Germany
might be honest in its professions of
a willingness to make peace, and that
II would state temrs which would JUS
tify the belief that an unsuccessful
war might have produced change OF
heart in Berlin, the danger was more
or less remote 1t is no longer re-

Australian Water Snake
Discovered at kahuku

A real live snake was captured on

office this morning. proves
The reptile was classed as An Aus

anc modeler at the Bishop museum
who is an expert on snakes. 1t Il
the fifth one of this species discovered
here within the last few years. Ho"
it came here is a mystery. but MIR,
Thompsons theory is that It came
over on a steamer and got loose. as
snake Journeys Of 5000 miles are i'm,
probable.
The capture was made near the
Marconi station at Kahuku yesterday
by August Freitas, an engineer for the
Oahu railway. VINO saw II wrigglinS
through sand and grass near the
beach.
The snake il q inches in length
and 1l2 inches high. 1t differs from
the ordinary reptile in appearance and
f"rm, being rather perpendicularly
oval than round It's belly and tail
indicate that it Is more at home in
the water than on land. The back
and sides are slate colored and the
tail notified.
Mr.. Thompson took the snake to the
museum to despatch it and then pre-
