The great Australian colonies are
supposed to belong to Great Britnin.
Their political allegiance is given to
King Edward VII. Yet, when few

of Sir Henry Parks, the Gladstone of
Australia, the most honored states

DOLE'S ADVICE AGAINST
CALLING EXTRA SESSION

Ex-Governor Sanford B. Dole is
among those who have advised Cover
nor Carter against calling an extra ses-
sion of the legislature. The former
governor had a conference with Carter
on Wednesday evening and expressed
the view that the administration would
get along better without an extra ses-
sion. Dole does not believe that the
Legislature would solve the financial
problem
F. j. Testa was the only one to kick
at the extra session programme as eX-
planned by the governor when Testa
and party of Home Rulers met with
the governor yesterday. Testa's view
was that the Legislature would be eating
crow if it repealed the laws of it's own
making last session. The lawmakers
ought to stand by what they had done,
thought Testa, and not admit that it
was wrong.
Governor Carter stated to those pre-
sent that, whether they willed it or
no, the capacity of the people of the
territory or self government was on
trial in the present crisis. He asked
those present if they thought that tho
legislature, if called together, would
earnestly take up the problems con-
fronting it and work together with the
administration for a solution.

JAPAN BOTTLES
CORRESPONDENTS.

The Russian fleet at Port Arthur is
not the only thing that Japan has bot
tied up. According to advices brought
today by the 5. S. Siberia the war
correspondents are bottled up at Toxic.
There are however three exceptions to
this case however and up to the time
that the Siberia left Yokohama, only
three correspondents had succeeded in
reaching any point in the theuter Of
war. Those men were Jack London
representing the w. r. Hearst papers
j. H. Hare representing Golfers Week
~ and F. a. Mckenzie of the London
Mail. All of these men were in Korea
while the bulk of the correspondents
were helpless at Toxic under the eyes
of the Japanese civil and military au-
thOrities.
The reason for the war correspond
ents being bottled up in Toxic is due
to decision by the Japanese govern
ment not to permit any correspondents
to accompany the troops until after the
invasion of Korea or Manchuria had
been accomplished. 1t was announced
by the government however that as
soon as the troops had been landed in
Korea and the actual land operations
were well under way the correspond
ents should be provided with every rea-
sOnable facility to accompany the
troops and secure news for their pa
perS.

Senator Kalauokalani, Speaker Beck
ley, Representatives Kumalae and Ku-
pihea, James H. Boyd, Wise Motley
and Markham thought that the leglS-
lature would do the work. They were
of the opinion that the best way out of
the difficulty was to call the legislature
They thought action would follow on
intelligent lines if the administration
outlined plan.
Among many business men the extra
session idea is not relshed There is
lot of sentiment in favor of having
the governor take hold of the situation
cut out appropriations, salaries and all
as far as advisable and run affairs un-
til the next legislature meets. This
is the view taken by Ex-Governor Dole
as to what should be done
The Legislature would, it is believed
by many, pass merchants license law
similar to the one which the Supreme
court recently knocked out. This
would bring in about 100000 a year, it
is estimated, but the tax is a very un-
popular one among merchants. It
was feature of the late county act

London, Hare and Mckenzie by a
stroke Of good luck or good judgment
which ever it may be termed, got into
Korea. Mckenzie was the first Of
the trio to reach Japan. He arrived
on the Nippon Maru from Honolulu
about January II. Instead of waiting
around Toxic he got into Korea where
be realized that hostilities would GER
tainly occur. London and Hare ar
rived on the 5. S. Siberia January %
from San Francisco. The majority of
the correspondents who were on the
Siberia talked the situation over with
people in Yokohama and Toxic and
await the pleasure of the Japanese gov
ernment. Hare and London who had
chummed it together on the way from
San Francisco decided to take the in-
tiativr and strike 1T once for Korea.
Both succeeded in getting to Che
mulpo before the outbreak of hostilities
and are reported to have been the only
foreign correspondents who watched
the battle off Chemulpo in which the
Russian cruiser Variag and gunboat
koreitZ were destroyed.
The other correspondents numbering
about 80 men were stlll at Toxic when
the Siberia sailed. They did not have
any idea when they would be able to
reach Korea but hoped to get out to
the front in the course of month or
