as the greatest patriot and statesman
Of his or any other day, now known

Jefferson, Of tho willingness Of all
Americans 10 risk their lives in lis
defense and preservation. HeSpoke
of our indvStrial progress, our
scientific achievements as being the
greatest ofthis orany other age, and
lastly, but not leastly, he spoke Of
the "boodlers" ard said thcre had
been discovered corruption in our
big cities which had boen running
riot for years, and that 1t bad boon
discovered in our state legislature
and more recently in our national
affairs at Washington. He said that
he believed that all dishonest

The TnTminFafiOH Peril.

Immigration Statistics, now just
published, show that S5T,046 for
'eignets came to'this country during
the fiscal year ending June 80 last,
This was an increase Of more than
2O0,O0o over the 1909 record, 1t
is expected that 100000 immi-
grants will reach these shores du-
ring the current year.
Inthese figures, remembering the
undesirable character of the great
mass Of immigrants of the present
day, there is b vital argument for
stricter laws governing the admis-
sion Of aliens.
tis not at al a question Of hos
tility toward worthy foreigners

isa question Of national defence
against q squaiid, ignorant and
crime-tainted invasion.
Immigration Commissioner Sar-
gent rightly calls attention to the
peril Of the present situation. The
matter should receive the most car
nest consideration, and action to
restrict immigration within limits
advantageous to this country may
well be taken.

ROMANTIC CAREER OF THE
VENERABLE JOHN K. SUMMER
His Long Life in These His Native Islands and
His Many Trials and Vicissitudes
by Land and Sea.

Then John K. Summer went the follow
ling year, 1850, and returned after con-
siderable experiences and hard luck, to
Honolulu.
| 1t was then he met his future wife
at his brother Williams house, she be-
ing Tahitian princess named Ninito
who was married to him by a Protest
ant missionary named Armstrong, his
sponsor being Governor Kekuanaoa,
father of Kamehameha V. His wife came
on the French man-of-war from Tahiti
in 1S49, which demanded justice on be-
half of some French priests who had
been ill-treated.
From this marriage came no off
spring. thus leaving his sister, Maria
S. Davis, next: then her son, Wallie
Davis; then the Ellises, the latter be-
ing only grand nephews and niece.
Some time after John K. Summers
marriage, Captain John Brander. a
wealthy Tahitian merchant and vessel
owner, one whose wife was a niece of
John K. Summers wife, sent brig
especially from Tahiti to bring the
young couple home to that place. On
Summers arrival there he went into the
raising of sea island cotton which, at
that time, was in great demand in Eu-
rope and America. After three and a
half years he gave up the cotton indus
try and went into the cattle business.
He bought a brig called the Ninito and,
with young Wallie Davis as boatswain,
made number of successful trips from
Hawaii to Tahiti buying all his cattle
from John Parker, uncle of the veil
known Sam Parker. At last success
failed him in his transportation by sea.
here to Tahiti, losing the great major
ity of his cattle. Sumner relates how
the heat was so intense that the hot
pitch poured down upon the poor brutes
below decks, and having no water they
licked up the hot pitch. Wallie, on that
trip, acted as boatswain and Jonah. as
the old man says the brig ran ashore
when up at Hawaii, then a bad passage,
the cattle We're lost, and after sending
the vessel back to this island the cap
tain ran her ashore again. The reason.
says John K. Sumner, was the too free
use of swipes. I. Cartwright, agent for
John K. Summer during all that time.
sold what was left of the brig. In 1897
John K. Sumner came back from Ia
hiti, and shortly after his wife died, on
July 20, 1898, He remained here until
1901, when he went back to Tahiti On
April 1, 1901, he residing there till 1902.

HONOLULU MANS
VALUABLE FIND

Mr.. w. E. Devereux, of Grinbaum
& Co. who was visiting east Maui last
week, accidentally unearthed a very
valuable find.
He was travelling on horseback
from Hama to Kipahulu, and his horse
left the main trail and was travelling
along a by path, when it stumbled
and came near falling into hole, the
mouth of which had been covered. AS
the hole presented a somewhat sin
gular appearance, Mr.. Devereux dis
mounted and proceeded to examine
it. 1t was was an artificial hole, and
peering into it he discovered a large
number, nearly a dozen, ancient cal
abashes, and fragments of tapa cloth
which had evidently been hidden there
many years ago, perhaps with the
bones of dead chief. The calabashes
were of koa wood, and were in good
state of preservation. At the present
prices of calabashes, they are estimated
to be worth several hundred dollars.
Mr.. Devereux took them to Honolulu
with him and will have them polished.

Honolulu, H. L, January 10. 1908.

Honolulu, H. l., January 10, 1908.
Editor Advertiser: I take the liberty
of sending you a few personal items
pertaining to the life of John K. Sum-
ner, to whom your valuable paper has
been a great factor in framing the pub
lie mind and in a sense helping him
out of his troubles before the court.
which has given him freedom and mis-
fortune.
Captain William Summer, John Sum-
ner's father, was born in Northamp-
ton, England, and came to the Pacific
Coast as a cabin boy on a British ship
which landed on the Island of Kauai.
Young Sumner ran away from the YES
SEP and took up his residence with the
natives. The king of Kauai was called
Kaimualii. He took a great fancy to
the lad, and adopted him as his own.
About that time King Kamehameha l.
invaded this island and had conquered
all the group with the exception of
Kauai, and was in Honolulu. Kaimu-
ALI, on hearing all the Islands had
made submission to Kamehameha, call
the people together and it was decided
to send an embassy to the conqueror.
But as no volunteers offered them
selves, young Sumner offered to go
with the king, which offer was accept
ed. On arriving before Kamehameha,
the king rendered his submission, which
was accepted. Kaimualii being loaded
with honors and told to go home to
Kauai and tell his people that their
lives and liberties were under his pro-
young Sumner be allowed to stay with
him, having shown so much courage.
His good looks also and his extreme
brightness recommended him. He then
became a member of the Royal house
hold, thus passing his young manhood
until he married young and beautiful
Hawaiian lady named Hua. The Off
spring was William Sumner, Jr., the
only brother of John K. Sumner, who
was born September 16, 1920. Then fol-
lowed his only sister, Maria 5. Davis,
born January 16, 1925, William being
dead. The Ellises, known as the Sum
ner heirs, were William Summers
grandchildren. r. w. Davis, better
known as Wallie Davis. only son Of
Maria Davis, was born some SO years
ago, and he has figured in this case in
protecting his uncle's interests. John
K. Sumner was the second son. When
he had grown to be a boy his father
took him to sea on the brig Waverley,
trading and fur hunting along the Cal
ifornia Coast. Then Captain Summer
took up land at Moanalua, taking his
sons, William and John K in as part
ners, and at times had several thou
sand head of cattle. In 1S47 Captain
William Sumner died, and in 1S49, when
the gold fever broke out in California,
William, Jr., went and returned home.

BLIGHT IS
DOING WORK
Lantana on Maui
Is Being Wiped
Out.
The Rice Planters Are
in Need of
Labor.
Lands Have Been Abandoned
Because of Shortage
of Supply.

MAUI, Jan. 10-The lantana blight is
slowly but surely doing it's work on
Maui. The lantana does not succumb
without a hard struggle but finally
withers, turns black, and gives up the
fight. Large patches of black may be
seen among the lantana on the byways
of Kahakuloa, waihee, Ulupalakua,
Kula, and other places, showing where
the blight has got in it's work.
RICE LANDS ARE IDLE.
The rice planters of Honomanu val
ley, in Hama district, are discouraged
because they cannot obtain laborers, ac-
custorned to cultivate rice to work on
their plantations. Their lands have to
be idle in consequence.
KoNA DOES DAMAGE.
A Kona wind blew furiously over
Maui during Wednesday and Thursday,
with rain for several hours during the
latter day 1t was the heaviest blow
OF IQe winter season So lar" ASlSplOhS
wires were broken and crossed, and
trees here and there were uprooted.
The wind is still most variable, at
tempting every now and then to come
in from the cold north.
CABLES ARE COSTLY.
The plan of receiving daily cable dis
matches on Maui by means of the wire
less telegraph from Honolulu will not
be feasible unless a hundred dollars a
month is guaranteed, so Superintendent
F., E. B. Carley of the telephone company
states.
The work entailed upon the telephone
office in transmitting the news receiv-
ed will be quite arduous and surely
when rendered will deserve ample COM
pensation. Twenty-Five dollars per
month is none too much.
To raise the required 800 per month,
the eight or nine plantation commune
ties should take the matter in hand and
guarantee at least eighty per cent of
the amount. Each plantation could pay
its share of the whole sum to be sub
scribed by contributions from its lead
ing officers. The remaining twenty per
cent might be made up in the towns
of Wailuku and Lahaina. But after all
is the craving for news so strong that
