DEMOCRATS ARE
FIRED WITH AMBITION

Inspired possibly by the length and
scope of the Republican platform, the
Democrats have decided to dig away
down and produce something equally
ponderous. Chairman Watson, Of the
Democratic Territorial committee,
touched the button yesterday afternoon
for all the men in the party with an
idea Supervisor Mcclellan, who has
had charge of the work of platform.
making, will lay aside his shears and
paste pot and join with the others in
trying to produce something new and
timely.
The length of the Republican plat.
form has, it was said last night, caused
the Democrats to discard their plan
Of hrrvity and simplicity, and they
will now 90 1.-THE whole hog
Mr.. Mcclellan has stated definitely
that he will not run for the Senate in
the coming election, prefcrring to stay
with the board Of supervisors.

II automobiles, taxis and motorbuses have play
ed in the but not everybody remembers the
part performed by the good roads which have
rendered such signal service possible For years,
the fine, maCadamized wel-kept highways Of
France have been the admiration of travellers.
To-day, many of these roads worn by the in
cessant traffic Of and torn by shot and
shell But ii the French had been content with
anything less than perfection before 1914 the war
automobiles would have had small chance for

peer corps OF the nted States Army has recently
declared that, in an emergency, it would be pos
Siblc to get together, in few days on the west
front 100000 automobiles which would be able
to rush 100000 men and their equipment over the
French highways to any weak spot in the line.

The Next Move

NOW that we have the Republican platform,
IN where are the Republican candidates to
come from who will put into deeds the pledges
therein contained?
The principal planks of the platform contain the
pledges of loyalty to the government the promises
to back up and help the Nation and the pledges
to support the boys at the front while they are
there and to help them when they return. And
those planks contain all the requisites of good
government, if they carried out.
The principal demand being made today upon
all citizens by the federal government is for war
time economy, for thrift for the elimination Of
non-essentialS and the increased produchOn Of
things that are essential to winning the war. A
legislature honestly striving to carry out these
things can do much. The average legislature, as
we have it in Hawaii, practses no economy,
does nothing to encourage thrift and sits back
happily satisfied if one-tenth Of its time and money
can be devoted to essential things.
Ninety percent OF our Legislative energy is vast
ed on politics. More than half its expenses are
made for political reasons
There are many Republicans in Hawaii who
could be trusted to sit in the coming legislature
with becoming sense of the seriousness OF the
financial situation into which Hawaii is rapidly
drifting, men who would fulfill these loyalty
pledges OF the PLATFORM. Some OF these men are
already or less i'll the field, but not enough
Of them 1t is quite unlikely that there will be
enough volunteers. Many must be drafted and
il would require small persuasion the part of
the Republican leaders this year to induce enough
men OF the dollar a wear" brand to do their Bit
in the legislature
If these leaders will do this it would give to
. the platform pledges solid background Of sin
cerity. That ought to be the next move.

Return Tickets From
France

T has been said. truthfully that the return ticket
of boys in France Will be secured largely
through American savings Of wheat, sugar, meats
and fats.
The boys in the trenches will win in just such
proportion they backed up by the folks
at home.
1t is essential that there be built up in this
country a reserve supply Of food just it i,
necessary that the army be guaranteed cIothlng
guns and ammunition.
Saving money alone will not guarantee food
supply. Nature seems tickle sometimes and lpl"
and 1920 may be lean years. Therefore, out Of
the abundance of 1918 America must save as
she saved of the 1917 crops to feed her Army and
Navy and share with the armies and civilians OF

he that of prohibition The legislatures of thirty
four States have not yet voted on the cOnstitu-
tiona amendment to provide bone dry Nation
and in these States many a candidate will rise or
fall on the stand he takes for against the amend

Il 1t requires the ratification of thirty States
in all to add amendment to the Constitution
Already vote has been taken in fourteen States
and of these all but have ratified prohibition
One has gone record in opposition, this
being Louisiana which, however, has the right to
rescind this at any time before December l8, 1924
by aJority vote of the Legislature.
OF the thirty-four States yet to vote, it will re-
qure ratification from twenty three to put ma
tiOna prohibition into effect The anti probih
tionists require the votes Of twelve more State:
to defeat the amendment and the liquor forces are
concentrating their strength in an effort to cleo

percent waste effort.

Like a good many Others We would like to
know lust what are these casualty lists the gov
eminent is supplying. They certainly can have
nothing to do with what has been happening up
and down the Marine for the past three weeks.
SO far not an ntimation has come, except through
Berlin, that the Americans have done anything in
this battle except march triumphamtlv ahead with
out loss or a check Nonsense OF this kind does
not help; it only tends to create distrust of the
news we do get.
The buying Of War Savings Stamps, SYSTEM
aticalIy and continuously, corresponds to the
work done in the trenches and behind the lines,
when there is nothing Of Importance to report.
1t is like the work Of the sailors ON vigil in the
danger zone, like the steady beat "i the heart as
it stores up the reserve of force and energy that
responds when the call for extra cNcrtion comes.
The steady and sustained expenditure OF national

potent force for victory.
