Uhited States Senators Burton Of
Kansas. Foster of Washington and
Mitchell of Oregon have returned from
the Hawaiian Islands. where they have
been on tour of investigation as a sub
conrlittee of the Senate committee on
Pacific islands and Porto Rico. They
were accompanied by ex-senator Thurs

of the subcommittee Senator Mitchell
said:3 we spent twenty-five working
days in the Hawaiian Islands, twenty of
which, including also many night sittings,
were occupied in taking testimony upon
the subjects committed to us for iuyesti-
gatiol. We visited four of the principal
islands of the territory-Aohu, Hawaii,
Maui and Molokai-and the cities of
Honolulu. Hilo, Lahaina, NouEtaiE View
and several smaller towns. aud took the
testimony of several hundred witnesses
Of all classes. We also heard the reports

In the wheat market there is now much

earlier on this crop year than last. The
Canadian roads had better facilities for

makes ii probable that the competitions
will be felt more keenly this fall than
last, and not SO much perhaps IN the
spring The sooner this comes the better,
since this Canadian wheat must be mar

the lack of speculative interest, and dull

emigrated in 1901 20 work on sugar plan

they are subjected to great cruelties, do
not get sufficient food, are whipped by
overseers, and live like beasts. When
sick they are not sent to the hospital nm
less they pay for treatment. If they do
not lave the money for the hospital ex-
penses they must go to prison for treat
ment, and they are kept prisoners fer
three months, being registered as having
committed petit larceny. The sigDers add
that complaints are useless, as the peo-
pie and the authorities are Indifferent to
their sufferings. Mr.. Detegau. the Porto
Rican commissioner at Washington, will
ask the American government to send
commission to Hawaii to investigate the
condition of the Porto Ricans there.

Suitable Instructors.
There is a famine of school teachers
throughout Minnesota. Requests from
country and village schools have been
coming to Superintendent Smith and to
County Superintendent Thomas Mont
gomery at st. Paul asking that teachers
be sent from there to fill vacancies. The
seekers after help get little satisfaction,
however, for the city itself is in the SINE
position. The eligible list of teachers is
exhausted and vacancies are filed with
substitutes until regular applicants can
be secured. The present condition is
most unusual. 1t arises from the stand
ard of qualification being so high in the
State, which fact is said to have dis
couraged many teachers and caused them
TO seek employment elsewhere.
