SCHOOL OF DAIRYlNG
EIGHTH ANNUAL SESSION WILL
BE HELD AT AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGE NEXT MONTH.
Lecturers Have Been Secured From
the East to Give Practical Ad-
dresses on the Subject.

The eighth annual session of this
popular course in dairying will be held
at the Washington Agricultural COL
lege February 30 to April %. The
course this year will pursue similar
lines to those which have been follow
ed in preceding years. For two or
three years past the school has worked
under the disadvantage of having no
building or plant sufficiently we'll
equipped for its purpose. Through the
generosity of the last legislature this
lack has been supplied and there is
now in process of construction a new
dairy building which is to take the
place of the one destroyed by fire some
three years ago. The new dairy build
rear of Science hall and facing the
parade ground. 1t will be of frame,
venerred with brick, 52X40 feet in ex
tent. with a boiler and engine room in
addition. The equipment is being fur
nished by various firms supplying
creamery machinery and it is pro-
posed to further add refrigerating
system. The course of instruction en-
braces two distinct divisions. One is
a factory course in creamery manage
ment in which the practical operations
of factory will be emphasized; the
other embraces the distinct line of
work known as cheese production.
Connected with each of these courses
will be given many other subjects Of
instruction which are closely allied to
the work 1t is believed that the best
equipped dairyman or cheese maker
is that one who knows something more

Local Leaders Enthusiastic.

The local leaders of the party are
practically unanimous in favor of the
Turner movement. Admiration for
Judge Turner personally. and a belief
that his nomination would strengthen
the party locally are the two elements
which constitute their enthusiasm. The
more eXuberant of them claim that his
nomination would give Washington to
the democratic national ticket. While
the more conservative of them figure
that his nomination would head off
what threatens to be wild Roosevelt
stampede in this state. and render the
election Of the democratic state ticket
more probable than it now is.
Judge Turner will make trip to the
national capital next month. and after
he talks to the party leaders there. he
will probably know definitely whether
he will be a candidate. He has de-

party. They hope to take advantage of
a sentiment in favor of conceding the
vice presidential candidate to the Bry

cure the nomination of Judge Turner.
They figure that his high standing and
wide acquaintance with party leaders

deal of prestige.
Judge Turner has always been a
warm friend of William J. Bryan. Mr.
Bryan in his paper. the COmmOner. has
several times spoken in high praise of
Judge Turner and has reckOned him
AS one of his friends and supporters
BY reason of his service in the senate,
Judge Turner came to enjoy close per-
sonal relations with leaders of the other
wing of the party, particularly with
Senator Arthur P. German. the man
who is now organizing the conserva
tive wing of the party in its struggle
for control of the next national con-
vention. That Senator German great

we'll known.
Judge Turner's friends realize that
their candidates greatest handicap is
his residence in the far west. in
state which is counted as hopelessly
republican. They hope to overcome
that by his personal popularity with
party leaders and by massing in his
wing of the party.

VICTOR BLUE MUST
RETURN To ORIENT

Lieut.. Victor Blue will probably pass
through Honolulu shortly, en- route to
the Orient. Town Talk says:
Lieutenant Victor Blue, U. S. Navy.
the modest hero of the Spanish war
and of the Chinese expedition, to whom
I referred recently, passed through San
Francisco last week. en- route East,
having been ordered to temporary duty
at Morristown, N. ]. Blue had quite
a shock upon his arrival here. He had
been three years in Asiatic waters and
was homeward bound. anticipating a
few months of rest in the United States
with his family who accompanied
him. No sooner had the China, which
brought him, reached her dock than
he was handled orders attaching him
to the Buffalo. which has suddenly
been ordered back to China. It was
as fine an illustration of the uncertain
ty of a naval officers life as could be
desired.

PRECINCT
DIVISION
increases Costs But
Purifies the
Methods.

In a short time the division of some
and Fifth districts will be announced
from the Secretary's Office. Secretary
| Atkinson and Chief Clerk auckland
have been working on the matter for
some time.
Governor Carter stated yesterday
that the matter had been brought to
his attention before he departed for
the east and he was heartily in favor
of it. Since then he says that pres
sure has been brought to bear to let
the precincts remain as they are as
the parties had their organizations
complete within them, and the politi-
lcal divisions of the island should
therefore not be disturbed.
'eI have declined to accept this view
of the case,' said the Governor yester-.
day. ct is my belief that in crowded
voting sections there lis more or less
likelihood of corruption than in pre-
cincts with smaller voting lists. In the
latter class of precincts there is more
opportunity for individuals to know
one another. When a bus comes up to
booth in a heavy voting precinct,
loaded with supposed voters, there is
not always the opportunity to know
whether this or that man has a real
residence in the precinct Where small
er groups of voters are maintained.
this cannot occur.
.'Of course this will increase the cost
for each election, but in the in
terest of clean voting, it must be done
In some precincts where there is very
small voting list-too small-a portion
of a heavy voting precinct can be added
to it, thus entailing no added cost.
''Some of the politicians have told me
that if certain precincts are divided it
will break the machine. I would rath-
ar build up a new machine where ev-
erything will surely be conducted right
than to keep a machine going where
there is chance at times to find dis
honest politics.
Il believe in the long run these peo
pie will find that the division of the |
precincts as outlined will be the better
oIan.''
Among the precincts proposed to be
divided in the Fourth district are the |
1rst. fourth, and eighth. In the Fifth |
district the Fighting Seventh is
proposed for division, although it is
said that the population of voters has
been greatly diminished owing to the
closing up of Kalihi Camp.
There are instance on Hawaii where |
/ division of precincts would be bene- I
icial. according to the Governor, where |
n cases men have to ride twenty |
niles to cast a vote. This, he believes, /
entails too much sacrifice on the part |
If the voter, and he proposes division /
here to cut down the distance from
home to ballot box.

KAAI AGAIN WANTS
TO BREAK A WILL

c. W. Ashford has revived the case of
Junius Kaae who has sought in previous
years to set aside the will of Kealii-
honui, under whose will is involved the
estate of Mrs. A. A. Haalelea. The
latter was the widow of Levi Haalelea,
whose former wife was Kekauauohi,
the widow Of Kealiihonui.
Mr.. Ashford moves for a writ of error
to review Judge Gears ruling in which
he dismissed the petition of Junius
Kaae filed originally in 1892, wherein
was asked the revocation of the probate
of the viii filed in 1852.
The property involved is said 10 be
worth a mint Of money, being located
in Nuuanu.

DRAW TWO
SALARIES
Stenographers Are UP
Against the
Auditor.

Auditor Fisher has called the atten-
tion of the Governor to peculiar sit
uation whereby government employees
are receiving, practically. two salaries
from the public treasury, and the mat
ter will go to the courts for a settle
ment. This involves the stenographers
in the Circuit Courts.
The stepographers of the First Circuit
Court receives a salary approximating
$50 per month for their services. They
have the opportunity of adding largely
to their income by making transcripts
of evidence for attorneys, who pay so
much per folio for the material.
In all cases of appeal, where the At
torney Generals Office is involved,
transcripts were required by the At
torney General and the stenographers
attorneys. A fund has been provided
for incidentals for the Attorney Cen
erals Department, and payment for the
transcripts was made from this money.
Now Auditor Fisher has raised the
point that the stenographers are prac-
tically drawing two salaries and wants
the matter decided by the courts. The
Governor, as well as the Auditor and
Attorney General, contend that the
stenographers are employees of the gov
eminent and should make up such !
transcript for the Attorney Generals |
without extra compensa-
ton.
