WARM PRAISE
OF THE GOVERNOR

An official statement was sent out
from the White House yesterday which
decides the Hawaiian controversy in
the following terms:
The President, after most careful in
vestigation and personally hearing as
many men as possible and hearing
from others, has come to the conclusion
that Governor Dole's course has been
such as to warrant his continuance as
Governor of Hawaii and to entitle him
to the respect and hearty support of the
administration.
This vindication of an able and in
cOrruptible official deserves the heart
lest commentator. 1t is so complete
in it's practical aspects to the politicians
that the Hawaiian government will be
at once released from its most trying
annoyanCes and embarra ssments. Be
sides that, it is the just reward of we'll
doing, and this makes it a subject for
general congratulations
There is no ofHceholder under the
United States today who has a higher
conception of duty than Governor Dole
or a purer record in private and pub
lie life. Political power came to him
in the first place as a tribute to his
character, and there has been no good
reason to question his motives from
that time to this. Slurs against his
ability have been equally groundless
He is a man of fine intelligence, with
a special knowledge of Hawaii and the
Hawaiians gained through a lifelong
experience.
No appointee from this country cOult
possibly have such an equipment fol
his office as he has and certainly no fiji
substitute could be found among the
intriguing faction of carpet baggers
who have been moving heaven and Ha'
wall for his downfall. His retention is
most emphaticalIy a triumph for gooC
gOvernment.-Chic Record Herald

IN HAWAII
Washington Star Says That Cooper
win Remain and No Important
Changes Are in Prospect

WASHINGTON. April H-President
Roosevelt has for several years TO come
set at rest an further agitation about
important political offices I'm Hawaii by
having the following announcement
made at the White House today after
a conference with Gov Dole and George
Carter of Honolulu
THE President after most careful in
vestigation, and hearing as many men
ais possible, and hearing from others.
has come to the conclusion that Gov
Doles course has been such as to war
rant his continuance as governor of Ha-
wall, and entiUe him to the respect and
hearty support of the administration
This result has been confidently pre-
diCted from the beginning by the
friends of Governor Dole, who believed
that his personal explanation of affairs
| in Hawaii would be amply sufficient to
| set at rest some of the charges that
/ have been made. Governor Dole has
made splendid impression on the Pre-
sident, He had a conference Sunday
/ night with the President, and was with
| him again today. Mr.. Carter, who is a
| senator i'm the territorial legislature,
was with Governor Dole each time.
Governor Dole was shown the official
statement and expressed satisfaction
that the President had spoken so kindly
of him. Governor Dole is going to BOs-
ton and will not depart for Honolulu for
two weeks. He said that he had en-
! joyed his visit to Washington.
| Governor Dole was asked if his health
would interfere with his completing his
term,
The understanding is that the Presi-
dents conclusion as to Governor Dole
means that Henry e. Cooper, secretary
of the territory will not be disturbed.
He will remain under Governor Dole.
Mr. Cooper is acting governor i'm the
absence of Governor Dole. No other
changes of consequence will be made
and apparently the Hawaiian situation
is solved for a good while to come

The announcement Of the appearance
i'm Honolulu on May s of the distin-
guished actor Frederick Warde cannot
but be a source of genuine satisfaction
To lovers of the drama, and the ad-
mirers of all that is noble and true i'm
art. For twenty years Mr.. Warde has
been recognized as one of the foremost
actors of the States, he has won the
respect ana admiration of the public by
his devotion to his profession and fide-
lity to the Shapespearian and legit-
mate drama, Mr. Warde appears I'm a
character that he has made peculiarly
his own "Nirginius," i'm the grand old
play of that name by James Sheridan

Trlgnren any one not prepared to sec it. We sailed from St. Lucia on the morning of May Il and at , o'clock in the afternoospassed the island of Mar unique. The weather was perfectly clear, and we had a good view of that part of the island which had suffered by the volcanic eruption a few days before The formation of the island is quite altered, and the whole northern part, where the town of St. Pierre once stood, is covered with mass of ashes and lava. At about 2:30 o'clock, as the Etona was passing the island, tre- mendous upshoot of smoke and dust took place, and in a few moments the ship was covered with fine dust like cement We were about three miles distant from the island at the time. The ships engines were put under full speed, and for time considerable anx- iety was felt on board For an hour or two the ship was covered with dust and enyeloped i'll a thick cloud and the air was filled with sulphur fumes. 1t must have been another eruption, and the dust must have been sent great distance i'll the air, because it travelled against the wind and at a tremendous ly rapid rate"
