1t has been discovered that the Red
River valley which has always been
shown in the government maps as be-
ing located in the Louisiana purchase,
never belonged to France and was a
part of the old Northwest territory.
In the first issue of the maps, the lines
of boundary ran clear north to the
Canadian border, taking in all of
Minnesota except the area east of the
Mississippi river. The new map
shows the line DETECTING west from ST..
Cloud, leaving out the entire Red
River valley. In searching the rec
ords recently the error was discovered
and the correction has been made in
the new maps which have just been
issued by the government.

The southwest, including the states
of Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Ar

suffering from the effects of a long
drought and in many places there is
much suffering. It is said that in

the south being badly damaged by
the fires. We have no kick coming

For a real, genuine innovation the
editorial page of last weeks North
field News was entitled to the prize.
and the editor is also entitled to a
whole lot of credit for having been SO
mindful of the interests of the farmer,
which too often in the weekly paper are
overlooked. The News devoted it's
whole editorial page to farm topics
and discussion, and every item was a
good live one. Every line from the
top of the first column to the bottom
of the last column was about farming.
Even the "Minionettes'' and Estate
Press" were devoted to farm topics
and comment. No agricultural jour-
nal ever got up a better editorial page
than was that of the News last week.
The innovation is good one and
might we'll be copied by the country
press generally. The modern farmer
is great factor in every community ::
he is the whole dynamo, in fact, and
there is no question but what if the
weekly papers paid more attention to
farming interests that the country
press would prove of more interest to
it's readers: The News has. set Agood
example. :; l.. o;,

GOVERNOR CARTER'S
INAUGURAL ADDRESS

Fellow Citizens, Ladies and Gentlemen
A man can hardly find himself in {
more difficult position than one il
which he must speak about himself
Such is my position today, for I have
to tell you that only the true and Sc
rious conviction that l owe a citizens
duty to this Territory, and also ms
deep and earnest love for this land
of my birth, have led me to accept
this high office, to which the Presiden,
of our great Republic has been pleased
to call me.
Fellow citizens, this is a most noble
position that 1 am called to, yet We're
it not for the sense that President
Roosevelt has confidence in me, an6
that many and able men of this Terri
tory are ready ard willing to assist
me, l should hesitate before accepting
This task which has come upon me
is one which 1 assume with grave mis-
givings. 1 am young and impulsive
but youth is not always a bar to ad-
ministrative success, and in spite OF
my temperament, I hope to show you
that an earnest and fearless worker
| can produce results which are worthy
of your estimation, if not of your en-
tire appreciation.
This I can tell you: I shall devote
myself, heart and soul to the duties
of my high Office. The country of my
birth shall never say that I spared
myself in serving her. In accepting
! the Governorship, I dedicate such tai
, ents as have to the best interests OF
Hawaii and Hawaii's people.
I stand here today anxious to cham
pion the just cause of every man, wo-
man and child in these Islands, and
still more anxious to advance Hawaii
and Hawaiians in their progress tc
statehood.
Grand as the position is which I have
to assume. great are the Responsible
ties; and knowing my own shortcom-
ings, as no one else but myself can
know them, it is with the greatest
diffidence that I come before you today
as appointed Governor of this Terri
tory. Most thoroughly do I realize
the peculiar conditions ana difficulties
which surround the position.
I know that matters may often &c
! wrong and that I shall be sharply and
no doubt, very wholesomely criticised
for them. I know that when right
shall often be thought wrong by those
who 60 not view or understand the
whole situation. 1t is clearly the duty
of a man in the position TO which
have been appointed to do right, ne
matter what adverse opinion there
may be.
A man who is Governor of this Ter
! ritory, which is after all small thing
a man who is elected Governor of e
sovereign state, which is great thing
or a man who is elected President OF
the United States, which is the great
est position in the world, must meet

master of a whaler, think when he vis-
tied the shores of these islands, be-
tween the years of 1920 and 1885, that
his grandson would, almost a century
later, become governor of the islands.
Or little did the late DR.. Judd, the
trusted adviser of the Kamehamehas.
think that his daughters son should
rule the islands and that the mon
archial line which he served would
crumble away and be replaced by
American government. The new gov
ernor of the Territory of Hawaii comes
from family of very prominent early
connections here.
George r. Carter was born Decem-
Der 2S, 1866, in Honolulu, in a little
house on the north side of Kukui street.
His father and mother were both born
in the Hawaiian Islands H. A. p. Car
ter, his father, was successful man
of affairs for many years and at the
time of Geo. r. Carter's birth was in
business here. At one time the elder
Carter was Hawaiian Minister at
Washington. Thus the new governors s

HIS EARLY SCHOOL TRAINING.
George r. Carter went to school first
in Nuuanu Valley, in school presid-
ed over by the late Mrs. Lowell Smith,
wife of the pastor of Kaumakapili
church, of venerated memory. Later
he attended st. Alban's College, A T.
Atkinson's institution, and when that
was abandoned he attended the old
Fort street school, where NJ. NJ. Scott
was then assistant principal. He was
in this way educated locally, among
children of all nationalities-whi he
considers one of the wisest things his
parents ever did for him.
From the Honolulu schools Carter
went to Phillips Academy, Andover,
Mass, and graduating there in 1885,
entered the Sheffield Scientific school,
of Yale University, where he finished
a three years course in 1888. His
fathers injunction to him for his col
lege career was to have a good time
and make a good character. Carter
secured both. After graduation he took
a postgraduate course and spent some
