At LAST

We hate to say Il told you So" but the temptation this time is
too great to resist.
After six months of shiny-shalying, the Germans finally conclud-
ed that they had tried the patience of the Allies until it was worn
ragged. Just before the time limit for signing the peace treaty, they
gave a mighty heave, kicked out the macontents and Government Boil
shevnki in the National Assembly, and announced that they would sign
the treaty Internationally. In true Hun fashion, however, they made
a last stand to see if they couldn't bubble some more, at first stating
they would sign with reservations, such as refusing to give up their
beloved ex-kaiser. But the Allied peace delegates this time had dew
.coped some backbone and started the armies moving as their answer
when the Germans finally realizing the game was up gave in.
One thing is beyond our comprehension. For a man who has
accused so much suffering and woe, even to his own people, the Germans
remain singulary loyal to their kaiser now exied. Loyalty is an ex-
cellent trait, but when it is misplaced as is the German kal to their
one time ruler, it becomes a disease. Like all deadly disease germs,
this one should be vigorously fought with the light of democracy and
freedom of thought as the remedial vaccine. Let us hope that the
serum of democracy may be injected into the national life of Germany
in sufficient quantities from now on, to make the people immune to
any future All Highest who may attempt to place himself at the right
hand of God with Kultur for his Bible.

THE FISH SITUATION

We were going to write an editorial ourselves on the fish situation
which the Honolulu Territorial Market is to make an attempt to anevi-
ate. Our esteemed contemporary The Commercial Advertiser of the
Big City, has commented on the situation 81 apuy and expressed our
cWn notions so clearly that we take the liberty of lifting the editorial
bodily and reprintng it for the benefit of Maui househoders. 1t is
to be hoped that a similar fight will be waged on Maui for the reduc-
ton of fish and meat prices.
II the territorial marketing commission by going into the iSh
business can reduce the price of seafood to a reasonable level, it should
have the unqualified support of the people of Honolulu.
The prices that have been charged at the fish market ever since
the food commission went out of business have been nothing less than
outrageous. The fish dealers have been profteering merely because
they could, and it is time some action were taken to curb their rapacity.
The marketing commission has an opportunity to Justify its ex-
lstence. Even though the legislature failed to give it the additional
funds it asked for, it should be able to accomplish much with those al
ready at its disposal, particularly in the way of handling fish, which
should not take a large amount of capital, as the turnover is rapid.
meat business. This is good news, for it may have the effect of keep
ing meat prices from soaring any higher than they already are. In
deed, there is reason to hope that they can be brought down to some
where near a reasonable figure.
Whether the territorial market does a large business or not. it
can serve as a check on private dealers. 1t did this until the board
tor reasons that have never been satisfactorily explained, did away
with the retail market. AS soon IS that check was removed meat,
trut and vegetable prices began to rise, and they have been rising ever
since.
The territorial market did not receive the support from the pub
lie to which it was entitled. 1t is to be hoped that now that if is show
ing signs of life again, it will be accorded that support"

During my tour of Maui, visiting

very good condition. In some schools

some of the rooms are badly over
crowded.
Teachers Cottages-In most places
excellent, A few ancient cottages,
which should be replaced as soon as
possible. The Paia cottage is a model

Toilets-In most places antique,

OUT THE LAHAINA WHARF? IS ANYTHING
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1919-06-27
Law And Forestry To
Be Taught At Camp

There will be many interesting
courses at the Territorial Summer
school, at Camp Kileauea this sum-
mer. Among them will be a short
course on common law with special
reference to Hawaii and the other a
course on forestry.
Philip L. Weaver, attorney at law
in Honolulu and ex-judge of the land
court, territory of Hawaii, will con-
duct the ourse on common law.
The series will briefly review vari-
Gus topics which naturally fall under
the head of school law, such as the
power of the state to establish
schools, the common law governing
the relation of teacher and employer,
teacher and pupil, their rights as to
eligibility, selection, appointment,
formal or informal contracts of en-
ployment, dismissal, and resignation,
Or failure to reappoint." The ad-
mission and attendance OF pupils,
health regulations, control of pupils,
and discipline.
All of these subjects are to be dis
cussed only in their relation to the
common law as modified by Hawaiian
statutes, rules or regulations of the
department of Education, or decisions
of the Hawaiian Supreme Court.
This discussion will be followed by
a brief synopsis of a comparison of
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1919-06-27

where the Territory stands with ref
erence to progressive school law in
relation to the states of the Union,
and of possible paths of progress to
remedy defects left by the operation
of the common law to modern condi-
tons.
Illustrative cases will be referred
to on many more important points by
which further investigation of the
principles involved may be further in
v~estigated Or authenticated as the
basis of the rule stated.
Forestry Lectures
c. S. Judd, Territorial Superintend-
ent of Forestry, will give lectures on
Elementary Forestry, as follows:
Forestry defined, History of fores-
try, Silviculture, Forest management,
Forest protection, Forestry in Ha-
wall.

BANANA SHIPMENT CHANGES

w. A. Anderson, paymaster at
Pearl Harbor, and T. A. Dranga of

between the promoters of the banana

William Hyde Rice was very ill at
his home at Lihue, Kauai, last week
and at the week end some uneasiness
was felt by relatives and friends re-
garding him. On Monday word was
received however, stating THAT the
patient was better. Some years ago
Mr.. Rice broke his hip and that in

IF YOU'VE GOT An IDEA, SPEAK!

On July l, the board of supervaors will take up the matter of
the location OF the Malulani hospital, the location of the new Maui
high school and where the Makawao courthouse shall be built.
There are doubtless many people in Maui who have decided opnn-
ions on these subjects, and these citizens are urged to express those
opinions to the board of supervisors so that the best recommendations
of the community may be referred to in the selection of the sites for
these three important. improvements.
Step forward now and have your say. The board of supervisors
is calling for ideas. Write your letters or make an appearance before
the board with your suggestions. 1t is with the idea in mind of getting
the best locations that the board is asking for these ideas from the pub
lie and now is your time to promulgate your pet notion. If you don't
speak now, however, be satisfied with whatever selections the board
makes at its next meeting, and then all get behind and boost. Re-
member constructive criticism beforehand is better than destructive
criticism after the deed is done.
