NEW AUTOMOBILE HACKS
WHAT THEY WILL LOOK LIKE
AND WILL DO.
Manager Grant Explains the Intentions
of His Company--Will Start Up in
About Two Months

L. I. Grant, manager of the new au-
tomobile company, which will operate
horseless hacks on the streets of Homo
lulu, has shown the star an interesting
treatise on the development of the au-
tomobile, and the merits and dement's
of various kinds of horseless vehicles.
All of the argument points to the cleo
trio vehicle as the one for Honolulu, and
that is the automobile selected by the
company to operate here. Continuing on
this subject Mr.. Grant said
we have on the way twenty of these
vehicles for public use; these are some
what on the lines of hacks that are at
present on the streets of this city. We
are erecting large charging station on
King street and we have also a large
lot of vehicles coming, for sale, con-
sisting of runabouts, Surveys, brakes
etc, some of which are already sold.
We will do a general livery business,
will care for the vehicles we sell, If
customers SO elect, and for a specified
sum a month will care for and keep in
good condtuion, under guarantee, the
vehicle The station will be one of the
most modern and up to date in exist
ence. Vehicle for use as hacks will
give a service of 200 miles a day, if
needed, as we can charge batteries in
five minutes. Batteries on private rigs
can be charged in forty-five minutes
if needed in a hurry.
I'VE will use the celebrated Willard
battery, without doubt the very best in
the world at this time. Our vehicles
will be driven by expert drivers, who
will be specially trained for public SER
vice, and we will give the public of Ho-
nolulu a day and night service of the
very best. We shall also make a spec
ialty of automobile repairing of any
kind, as we will have automobile ex-
perts in our employ who have been
trained to all makes.
LAS to rates; we have not yet decided
upon these, but when we do we will adj
vertise them some time before we are
ready to start up. At present we are
waiting for the contractor to get the
building completed, which will be of
concrete throughout, having cement
floors and all the latest sanitary ar
rangements. Compressed air will be
used to handle the batterys with, and
for all cleaning purposes, under pres
sure of eighty pounds, will clean all
dust and dirt out better than by any
other means known. When will we get
started? That depens on the condition
of the building, but within the next
two or three months we hope.
About speed? Our street vehicles
can make a maximum of ten miles an
hour. This we consider IS fast enough.
We would rather carry our passengers
little slower and carry them safely,
than to drive recklessly and every few
days have a smashup or run over some
one. The streets are too narrow for
much speed in town. The general rule
in the States and abroad, now is to re-
strain all public vehicles down to eight
miles per hour, and this where the
streets are wide.
"Our building and plant will have a
capacity of 100 vehicles at present"

HOG TALK.

The Daily Dispatch publishes an ar ticle on Snakes as a Hog Fattener," !" and the article ayers that snakes as a food for hogs beats chestnuts, acorns or any of the fancy food stuffs." As snakes are as scarce as hens teeth in Alaska and there are not enough hogs here to count, this is valuable informa- tion. It is especially gratifying to know that snakes beat chestnuts and acorns, for we are short on acorns and all our chestnuts are to be found in the newspapers and theatres. The Sitka Alaskan and Douglas Island News please copy.-Alaska Truth.
 By the above we would suppose that the Truth man has not had any snakes since he came to Alaska. He comforts himself by the belief that there are no hogs either, and in the event of re lapse. his snakes would be unmolested. What chestnut!

BAcK FROM PORCUPINE.

Judge Bach returned last Thursday evening from a trip to Skagway and the Porcupine mining district. He reports Porcupine as being all and more than it is claimed. Wherever the work has progressed to any extent they are talk ing out gold, and many nuggets of con. siderable value have been found,
 In conversation about that country, the Judge said: "What that country needs is a good ditch to furnish plenty of water for working the claims. If some company don't put it in this year the claim owners will do it themselves another season. The day before got there my brother George picked up a nugget on the dump that weighed S64. The gold found is all coarse and there is no question as to the future of that country as a gold producer"

CLERK ELLIOTT.

The grand jury which completed its work last week in Skagway devoted a considerable part of its report in criti- cising the action of Clerk Elliott of the district court in failing to issue icen- ses to taxed occupations, upon pay ment to him of the amount of the tax. The fact that Elliot is usually careful and painstaking in his work can hardly be said to be an excuse. The fee which he receives-S5 for each hcense-is cer- tainIy sufficient to enable him to fulfill all the requirements of the law, and in- asmuch as he has failed to do this, he is deserving of censure.

TIME TO QUIT.

The papers of Southeastern Alaska that have endorsed the anti-Brady res oIution that was passed by the repub- Iican convention are now taking a pass ing shot at the Governor, the occasion being his reappointment by Prest. Me Kiuley. If they get any satisfaction out of it, they are welcome: the chances are that they are doing MT. Brady or the district very little harm. In our opinion it is now time for the press to let private feuds rest and take up mat ters of interest to the country in gen. eraI. The influence of no one man will ever make or break this country and if Gov. Brady or any other official in the district has erred in judgment it will all be forgotten in the era of de- velopment that is now before us.
 Alaska has for the past year strug- gIed along under tax that is or was not levied with her consent, and the complaints have been loud and long. Every settlement has felt it's blighting influence. The taking of these thousands of dollars from the people of this district is acknowledged by all to be great wrong done; and yet no steps were taken by congress to repeal the law. Why? Because the conventions, papers and delegates elect ed by the people were all devoting their time and energies trying to pull down few trusted officials who were warm personal friends of the administration that placed them in office. Nothing has been accomplished by this course and nothing will be. The self appoint ed leaders who have led the battle for the past year can now look back over the record they have made and see that they have only blundered.
 Now let us forget past differences and all pull together for Alaska. Let us, by petitiou-which is a right that has not been taken from us-and the power of the press, demand system of self government, that We may be the judges of the laws under which we live. Alaska is all right; we have the great est mines in the world, the agricultural possibilities of this country are great beyond measure, the fish and fur in- dustries alone are of much value, and as sure as the day succeeds the night, we will ultimately be a prosperous peo- pie. The time has come when we should quit our quibbling, and stand up for Alaska.

The Cottage City landed at the Doug las wharf last Monday evening and, as is the custom in the Alaskan cities, about half the population greeted her by appearing on the scene. Among those on profit bent were number of Indian squaws who seated themselves on the wharf and spread their wares out for the inspection of the tourists. The sales made were few and far be- tween, however, aud the grin that il- luminated the faces of the native women was more forced than otherwise. Presently bright idea came to the minds of the tourists and general stampede was made for the ship. They soon appeared armed with kodaks and cameras of every description which they leveled at the little group of na- tive women. A general scamper ensued and in very few minutes the squaws and their plunder were no more in sight.

Statue OF Washington In Paris which Will
lie Erected Through the Efforts OF
Patriotic American Women.

Paris, Jan. 3.-The city council has
chosen the site for the equestrian
statue of Washington. II is Mt the
intersection of Avenue d'Ienn and the
Avenue du Trocadero. 1t is fine
site, in the midst of the american
quarter. The United States ambas-
sador, Gen. Horace Porter, has had
charge of the matter and has devoted
much time to 1t. He found that the
French people were greatly pleased
with the idea of statue which is the
result of efforts of patriotic Ameri-
can women, who raised the necessary
funds by subscription. 1t is desired
to unvcil the statue July 3 next, the
anniversary of Washington's accept
ance of his commission as general,
which net the statue represents.
