much valued by collectors. is 20 be is
sued by the government for the large
post Offices The government has no
purpose to tickle local pride in the
matter. but aims 10 cut off some of the
revenue OF the opulent country post
master. At the smallest post offices
the postmaster receives a salary ac-
cording TO his stamp sales. the same
being assumed to represent the amount
of business done by his office. But 1t
is a well known practice for the way
side postmaster 10 engage 10 supply
stamps to the big merchant in the city.
The latter's mail goes into the city
post office, while the little post office
gets the credit for the business and
the postmaster salary accordingly.
Under this cheerful arrangement, too.
the country postmaster is suspected OF
selling -lnls-af- stamps AT TT discount,
which he could well afford To do and
pay the difference TO the government
out of his increased salary. The
scheme OF postage stamps with a local
identifying mark for the larger offices
is calculated TO do away with these
little tricks and save a good deal OF
money In the aggregate, to the post

and patriotic American statesmanship.
Not that this section is alone responsi-

that in this section is exposed the ex

From a military point OF view the

Because there is no canal the United

way would be Immediately opened for
an enemy TO maneuver in war

Dewey Defeats the Dove.

La Paloma is a beautiful yacht.

We suggest to Commodore Clarence
Macfarlane that he invent a ma
chine which can work boat with

that the Com modore would follow
suit and use methylated alcohol as
motor power for his speedy yacht.
The race between the two yachts
was excellent and interesting to the
Dewey. The yachts left for Laha-
ina on Saturday afternoon. The
Dewey arrived there in time for
church and after the Dewey crew
had attended few political meet
iugs, called on Mayor Mccain, and
given up all hopes OF seeing La
Paloma she started en- her home
ward journey.
She caught glimpse OF La Pa
Iona from which Commodore Mac
farlane was throwing evidence Of
gastric distress. aud she hove to, and
waited until she felt afraid Of being
arrested for travelling without
lights.
La Paloma in the meantime had
turned around the buoy, made a
dash towards McGregor's landing
aud saw a jackpot pulled in. Then
she was ready for business and her
skipper felt happy when he saw the
Waikiki beach looming up and his
faithful canoe, which he says he can
manage, looking tearfully at the
four-mile distance between the two
yachts.
To add insult to the injury Com
modore Hebron sailed out as far as
the King street cemetery and offered
10 tow La Paloma in without claim
for salvage. s''
