In the first week of its career The
Republican called attention TO the fact
that the United States Government
conducted agricultural experiment sta
tions in every State and Territory of
the mainland and had weather observa-
tories not only in all the States, but
had established weather stations in
Cuba and Porto Rico. 1t was suggested
at the time that the Governor should
write to the Secretary of Agriculture,
through the Secretary Of the Interior.
asking that weather stations and an
agricultural experiment station be
established in the new Territory of
Hawaii. In order to insure the matter
being called to the attention OF the
Federal Government, The Republican
instructed its correspondent at Wash
ington to lay the subject before either
Secretary Wilson or Assistant Secre-
tary Brigham of the Department of
Agriculture. The result is seen by the
letter from Acting Director Allen, pub
lished in The Republican yesterday
morning. Director Allen informs Mr.
Shorey of the Board of Health that
Secretary Wilson has appointed DR.. W.
c. Stubs. director OF the Louisiana
Agricultural Experiment Station, COM
missioner TO visit this Territory and
ascertain the most feasible plan for
establishing a station here. This is but
one OF the many good things for the
Territory and the people that The Re-
publican expects to bring about in the
first year of its existence.

other states besides. 1t Is even

do likewise. Statements and predic-
tions along this line have led the Chat

LOOK OUT FOR YOURSELF.

Meetings of white men in the inter-

an old story. Meetings Of black men,
to take counsel together and to Gu
courage one another in efforts TO bet

story. The negro farmers conferences
at Tuskegee have been famous for
years past. But meeting of southern

sired to know whether their people
could be assured work on wharf build

ern Pacific company in that city. The
great railroader referred them to his
assistant engineer in charge of con-
struction, but not until after he had
given them an audience, during which
he made them messengers TO their
people of some very timely and practi-
cal advice. Mr.. Huntington, arguing
from the premise that he had always
