Altogether the presence Of the volun-
teers has had an effect in promoting
fraternity, in binding sections, in let
ting the South say to the North,
There is no line between u.s." and the
South respond, I'VE know it." People
had become accustomed to the canvas
city out toward the Golden Gate,
and with a feeling Of sadness note
that 1t has vanished. They miss the
picturesque parades, the tramp Of
armed men, the thunder Of galloping
hoofs- And whenever sounds the
bugle note among the Preside hills ii
recalls to tender memory those who
have gone.
Among the poems of the year is that
of Mrs. Rose-Soley, How We Took
Khartoum." It was published first in
The Call and almost simultaneously in
the London Speaker, having since been
extensively copied. l make no pre-
tense of being a critic able to analyze
a poem and give to each characteristic
phrase q technical name, but reading
verse which has the stamp of genius
1 recognize the stamp. Mrs. Rose-So-
ley has been in this city for more than
a year, during which time she has done
much work Of excellence both in poetry
and prose. There is hardly a proba-
bility that she will receive much ap-
probation here, but there Is no reason
in this circumstance why she should
feel discouraged.
Visalia's local Tyre got thrashed the
other day, but so far as may be judged
its string was not busted during the
operation.
Professor Charles Eliot Norton is a
traitor. 1t seems to me he is the most
despicable citizen who finds undeserved
shelter beneath the flag which most of
US respect, while others, If failing In
this particular, have the grace Of
silence Norton is an open-mouthed,
unthinking, wordy and noisome NUS
ance. He should be exiled. He is not
fit to have country. Yet this verbose
and irritating creature, through his
connection Nth Harvard, is able to Sc
cure an audience and his reasonable
rant is put upon the wires every time
he has a fresh spasm Of disloyalty.
Occasionally 1t Is pleasure to analyze
the mistaken utterances of man and
point out to him pleasantly the error
of his way. To argue with Norton or
about him would be a waste Of time
and space. would not even go to the
trouble to cite his childish fiapdoodle
and refute It, There are plenty Of sane
men with whom to enjoy contention.
An exchange remarks that there are
several thousand words in the English
language which have no rhymes to
them, and cites the fact to prove that
the poets. of whom he Is distin-
guished one, have troubles Of their
own. I withhold sympathy. In the
first place there are not several thou
sand words so blessedly constituted that
the rhymster cannot monkey with
them, and If there were there would
still remain more than he could put to
good use. A poem devoid Of a central

shorten life to-day. But he's dead. isn't
he? Possibly he expired of 10y at real
izing the perfection Of his dietio sys-
tenn, or Of pain at the thought that
some time his posterity would assume
to break away from the regimen so sat
isfactory to a low-browed Simian fresh
from the jungle. AS to the passing ills
this primitive pattern Of gustatory
virtue may have suffered, I do not see
how the writer IN Good Health knows.
The primitive chap, among the other
advantages vouchsafed him-and fully
as much to be grateful for as being able
to dine off nuts-had the joy Of being
illiterate. Unless there happened to be
perpetuated the impression of his heel
in the mud, he neglected to leave any
record, and even this impression could
hardly be construed as a personal mem
orandum Of his primitive emotions.

Since the exigencies OF politics have
chucked my department to a back
page, the impulse to cease writing has
been overcome with difficulty. To the
faithful friends who have followed
me here I am grateful. and express the
wavering hope that they have been
paid for their trouble.
To the most OF the troops who came
here with the expectation of being sent
to Manila San Francisco has said fare

regret. There was not when they
sailed the wild enthusiasm provoked
by the presence OF war. The men went.
not to fight an enemy. but to the pro-
sale duty which falls to troops in
the time of peace. When patriotism
teers looked upon as heroes and
welcomed as brothers, to start away
was an easy matter. There was an In
tensity of feeling which left scant OPP
portunity for repining. The latest
boys to go were not impelled by the
hope Of doing valorous deeds, There
was drudgery ahead of them. not
glory, and yet they went without COM
planning and with cheers. The char
acteristic zest with which they set out
was as indicative Of high-gra citi-
zenship as had been the rush and up
roar of the beginning. They went
with the good wishes and good Will Oh
the city. In the months they were
here they behaved well. Individuals
had been guilty of indiscretion. but as
body every regiment had been credit
to the State from which 1t came ana
to the great country over which floats
the flag all were ready to defend. Even
the registering observed should not be
too heavily charged against the SOL
diers. They treated others better than
they were treated Many OF tnem
reached here poorly clad, shoeless, I'M
equipped. They were put in camp
swept by winds, which brought death
from the ocean, where there was no
DRAINAGE, and illness was soon the
common portion. Many and many
time were there det1ils whose duty 1t
was to fire a volley over the grave OF a
comrade. All were bitterly disap-
pointed that instead of being hurried
TO the front they were to be detained
in camp for an indefinite period. The
first payday was long in arriving. 1t
found the volunteers homesick, weary
of a new and strange routine, With the
glamour gone from military life. When
at last they got their money harpies
fiocked about them. They were lured
into deadfalls, robbed by men and
woman, piled with whisky unfit for use
in doctoring a sick horse. No wonder
there was an occasional disturbance. 1t
was natural enough that after having
been yictirnized the soldiers should
have visited some of the haunts of
crime and cleaned them out, with the
breaking OF heads and furniture. The
ladies Of the Red Cross were to the
volunteers from the start as minister
ing angels, and were appreciated. Of
fcers were received in the best homes
of the city, and lasting friendships
formed. Veterans of the Civil War, re-

from the United States, England
and France. In the same year
Mr.. Brinsmade, member of the
firm, interested number OF Bel
gisn capitalists in the Hawaiian
concession and the Belgian Colon.
ization Company was organized.
In 1874 Mr.. II cord became the
legal adviser of the Hawaiian
Government. and when the matter
was submitted to him he gave as
his opinion that the Ladd & Co.
contract absorbed all the preroga-
tives of the Government and that
it must be brought up, compromise
ed or broken. Not being fnanci-
cially able at the time to buy back
or compromise the contract the
Government calmly proceeded to
break it; and in order to make the
contract with the Belgian company
imperative it became necessary to
ruin Lsdd & Go. and discredit
them abroad. This, it is alleged,
the Government did by causing
mortgages against the Koloa plan
tation to be foreclosed. The Ladd
e. Co. contract antedates the ma
hele," and consequently embraces
all the crown lands, Government
lands and all lands sold by the
Government since 1841. ,t.
A suit for 1915 900 damages was
begun by Lsdd & Co. against the
Hawaiian Government, but the
heirs of the partners in Ladd &
Co. have never been able to OBJ
tain satisfaction. @ s...g
The principal heir is Colonel
William @. Little of this city,
stepson of William Hooper, one
of the partners and the moving
spirit of Ladd & Co. He said
yesterday: gg TO-. lara|

vigorously than ever, with the
hope that, as the matter is now of
direct interest to the United
States Government, we shall as
American citizens have Justice
done us at last. When ] think of
the great proportions to which
the sugar industry has grown in
Hawaii since 1910, and the value
of the crown lands, it is difficult
for me to speak of the matter with
calmness. We ought to be rolling
in wealth now. The crown lands
and all the Government lands,
with the improvements and the
income from them, ought to be
mine for fifty years to come. Be

cal monopoly of all the sugar bust.

made in good faith, and every
condition Of it was fulfilled on our
side. My stepfather, Mr.. Hooper,

benefactors of the Hawaiian race.

King and the chiefs to emancipate
the natives from the cruel slavery
