A DEAD PREACHER
Left Trouble Behind Him by Not
Signing a Marriage License.

In the latter part Of September
DR.. r. /. Allen and Miss Maude
Webb Of Ruby, 1. T., we're mar
ried with the late Rev. CIV. JAM
ison performing the ceremony.
The minister failed before his
death to sign the certificate which
the law says must be fled with the
federal court. Now DR.. Allen is
in doubt as to what action TO take
to rectify the error of the deceased
preacher and has asked Mr.. Chand.
Ter for advice. The law makes no
provision for such an emergency
because all persons, ministers and
officers, authorized to perform
ceremony are supposed to sign the
certificate at once and return it to
the clerk. II they do not they are
liable to a fine OF from 800 to
$500.
DR.. Allen will be advised to send
the affidavits OF two witnesses to
the ceremony to be filed with the
unsigned certificate.

Vinita is nothing II not patriotic.
When the call for troops was made
to lick the Spanish Don's Vinita
young men responded nebly and
acquitted themselves with honor.
Our sympathies are now with
the dowutrodden Beers who are
seeking to maintain their liberty
from the British invaders in South
Africa.
Probably no resident Of Vinita
has taken as great an interest in
the affairs of The God fearing peo-
pie Of Dom Paul az Gus Muropulos.
In spite of the neutrality laws
Gus has been advising all the
young nen Of his acquaintance to
70 TO South Africa and assist the
Beers, eloquently telling of the
riches that is bound to come TO one
in case the British are finally re-
pulsed.
No Young man has been as in
terested, apparently, in Gus re-
cruiting efforts as Clifford Ed
minston. In his behalf Gus wrote
a personal letter to Gen. De Wet
telling Of the personal worth Of the
young man who is familiarly and
respectfully known to oil citizens,
man and boy alike, as "Sweet
Moments"
A reply has been received from
the willy Boer general asking Gus
to redouble his efforts and to send
Sweet Moments C. o. d. upon the
earliest possible shipment. Gen,
De Wet states that neither he mol
his soldiers have had a sweet mo-
ment since Kitchener commenced

While the great bulk of our trade can

the purpose of comparison to include the
amounts of domestic products shipped
to the mainland with that exported to
foreign countries. In this connection 1t
becomes pertinent to note the difficulty
which exists in showing the amount of
our domestic trade. Since the 18th OF
June, 1900, the day when Hawaii became
an organized territory. no entry of goods
has been required when either shipped
to or from the mainland. For this rea-
