1aukea,s Forlorn Hone.

The Democratic nominee, Mr.. Iaukea,
goes around the country on a proselyt-
ing tour with defeat stamped on his
countenance," the Hawaii Herald says.
He knows that the people of Hawaii
will have none of his teachings, for they
know that it is but a short time since
he was the leader of the Republican
party in his precinct and that he be-
came Democrat, not because he be-
lieved in the doctrines of that party,
but because he felt that he was not
getting the proper recognition. He be-
lieved that the Democratic party was in
need of just such a man as he and as
the Republican party has a plethora of
excellent timber he deserted with the
hope of the reward which he now en-
joys 60 as the nominee for Delegate
The burden of his song is that Cupid
can do nothing in Congress and il is
necessary to keep a man there at great
expense in order to influence legislation.
The latter part of his statement may be
true and it may be true ten years hence,
for everyone who knows anything of
Congress knows that there has always
been third house and there always
will be. If Mr.. Iaukea was "a delegate
this third house might be larger. If the
people of the Islands, in any single in
dustry, see fit to keep a representative
at Washington, the business is theirs so
long as it does not interfere with legis-
lation that is for the general good. The
representative from Honolulu is paid
from private funds and is not, in any
way, burden TO the taxpayers"

Reminders to Iaukes.

A stock story for the Democratic
speakers during this campaign is that
which puts the onus of annexation on
the Republican party. Mr.. Iaukea over
looked in his reckoning the fact that
the resolution in favor of annexation.
and which was afterwards adopted, was
presented by Senator Newlands of Ne
vada, who was a Silver Democrat. This
resolution was that upon which the
Islands were annexed. and without it
results would have been different. Mr..
Iaukea was reminded of this during his
meeting at Olaa on Tuesday. Another
assertion for which the genial nominee
was called down was that the RepubIi-
cans are forcing the Hawaiians to vote
as they direct. Mr.. IaUkea had to ad-
nit that the voter marked his ticket as
he wished and without dictation. Mr.
Iaukea forgets. perhaps. that when the
overthrow Of the Queen took place he
became one OF the supporters of the
provisional government and was an Of
flee holder during that regime. It is in
oad taste for him 10 denounce the gov
eminent that gave him recognition at a

WATER FOR SCHOOLS.

school is thirsty place Cold
water is natures refresher and stimu-
liant, no doubt when pure the best for
everybody but especially young folks.
School children want a drink every
now and then. even if only as diver
sion from the grind of lessons 1t Is
therefore important that there should
be a supply of pure water for all of our
schools. A citizen passing one of the
city schools the other day observed
children at recess f1ocking to service
water tap in the school-house yard. He
did not think it was right if that was
the regular and only supply of water to
the school, especially in view of medi-
cal advice, whenever sickness in any
notable type visits the town, to have
all drinking water boiled and filtered
Consequently, like most good citizens
when they have an idea for the public
welfare, this observing citizen came to
the Advertiser with a suggestion. It is
that distilled water should be supplied
TO the city schools. He thinks this
ought not to be an expensive matter.
from personal knowledge of the price at
which distilled water in bottles is fur
nished to households in San Francisco.
At all events, ordinary water filters IN
schools require more attention than the
average janitor is likely to give them
without orders. for a filter become foul
is far worse than none at all and liable
indeed to be menace. Such filters
should only be used which cool the
water without having the ice melt
In it.
Incidentally, care taken with drink
ing water in the schools would be useful
in impressing upon the young minds the
importance of hygiene. Water itself
might, on this score, be made the sub
ject of series of nature studies, bring
ing in rudimentary bacteriology. etc. AS
the new Normal School establishment
is to have a model kitchen, double
purpose could be served by installing a
water distilling plant there. The stud
ents as part of their training might be
given instruction in the theories of
bacteria and germs together with prac-
tice in water dfstillation. while the dis
tiIling plant might be made capable of
keeping all of the city schools supplied
with distilled water.

THE MOSQUITO pRoBLEA.

An article from the Scientific Amer
lean on the progress of mosquito ex-
termination has been reprinted in slips
for enclosure in letters. The article
mentions the New Jersey and Long
Island movements and speaks of the
Federal Government lively interest in
the matter thus:
THAT the Importance of the mos
quito is truly understood as regards
its relation to the public health in the
Panama Canal territory is shown by
the appointment of DR.. William c.
Gorgas, Assistant Surgeon General. U.
A, who has instructions to provide
drainage for swamps and all mosquito
breeding places in that district. He
is now in Panama for that purpose.
In the following remarks the Scien-:
tific American recommends to COM
rnunities a mode of procedure just such
as has been followed in Honolulu and
Hfo for year past:
Work will have to be begun. no
doubt, as that on Long Island was at
the expense of philosophical citizens
who are willing to risk money to prove
in practical way the determination
of the mosquito. 1t requires co-opera-
ton from so many sources that all
that private citizens can do by organi-
cation and all that the cities can be
induced to do in the way of appropria-
ton will need to be combined in order
to work on a territory large enough
to make the demonstration convincing.
1t will be an excellent plan for village
or town Improvement associations in
mosquito localities to discuss in public
meetings the necessity of eliminating
the mosquito pest, urging cooperation
with adjoining localities, and show by
maps and plans what can be done to
secure permanent and lasting improve
ment. Ultimately, city and State aid
can be secured to assist the work, much
on the same plan as State aid is now
given in road building
In the course of the article the fol-
lowing appears:
There are localities under our own
observation which have been free
from mosquitoes for six years past,
which for many years were unbear-
able to live in in hot weather, all due
to the elimination of stagnant pools
by simple drainage
It is doubtful. however, if the. prob
lem is SO simple here as to be q mere
matter of drainage. In and about rice
fields and taro patches there is a great
deal of water that stands long enough
for mosquito propagation, and until the
contrary is demonstrated the abund-
ance of the pest in many seemingly
well drained localities must be regard
ed as largely due to this cause.

RARE DOLLAR OF 1904.
Almost the Entire Coinage of That
Year Was Lost at Sea.

! What is belfved by several nunis-
matists who have examined it to be a
genuine silver dollar of the rare. coin
age OF 1904 was sent yesterday through
the City National Bank by E. c. Post
of SIS New York Life Building to
i George H. wilks of Clyde, Kan. Mr..
WiIks is al coin collector and the dollar
is being sent to him for approval. If
he decides that it is not counterfeit he
will buy it, the purchase price agreed
upon being $3.50.
The coin is not the property of Mr..
Post but belongs to an old coin col
lector, whose name Mr.. Post says he
is not at liberty to divulge Mr.. Post
saws that he knows of his own know
ledge that his client has had the coin
fifteen years. and that the old man as
serts that he has had it for thirty-five
years, getting it from a man who came
West from Vermont and asserted that
he had had it fifteen years. Recently
the owner decided to sell his trea sure
and turned it over to Mr.. Post for that
purpose. Mr. Post submitted the dollar
to ]. Shade of 10 East Missouri avenue,
a dealer in rare coins and curios, and
the latter declared that it was a guni-
une 1904 dollar.
If the coin in Mr.. Posts possession
proves genuine it will add one more to
the known worlds collection of 1904
dollars According to authorities on
rare coins. there are only seven 1904
dollars in existence. Two of these are
in the Government mint at Philadel-
phia and the others are in private col
Iections, from which they do not depart
without the knowledge of all the nu-
mismatists in the country. The scarcity
of these dollars is due to the fact that
practically the entire coinage of silver
dollars of 1904 was sent to Tripoli to
pay the American soldiers and sailors
who were prosecuting the war against
the Barbary States. The ship never
reached its destination, and presum-
ably sank.
Should the dollar sent to Mr.. Wilks
prove good and should he secure it for
$3.50, he will get a good bargain. The
last recorded sale of an 1904 dollar was
made last November by r. G. Marvin
of Denver to H G. Brown of Portland,
Ore, and the price paid was $4,000.
The same coin was sold once for 81. 200.
To the few who were permitted to
see the piece of silver at the City Ma
tional Bank yesterday, the coin proved
a great curiosity. The dollar, while
showing some marks of wear, is in an
excellent state of preservation. On one
side of the dollar is the American
eagle. holding in one claw a sheaf of
arrows and in the other an olive
branch. Across the body and out
stretched wings of the bird is the mot
to, E Pluribus Unum." On one side
of the eagle there are seven stars, and
on the other side, six stars. On the re-
verse side is a picture of Liberty with
flying hair and corsage decollete. Over
the head on this side of the coin is the
word Liberty" and underneath the
figures 1884" Around the narrow edge
of the dollar. in very small letters ere
the words, zone hundred cents. One
dollar unit" There are also some
other characters that could not be
made out.-Kansas City Times.

IMPORTED FOOD INSPECTION.

Introducing some discussion of speci-
nc facts regarding the law in question,

Representations from Hawaii ought TO

Importance of having one of those GUS
toms laboratories established at the
port of Honolulu. A great amount of

entered at this port and on one occa-
sion, in the not distant past--as was
given out officially in Washington and
autographed to the press at largein
lection was introduced, an epidemic
being only averted through the vigil
lance of the local health authorities, in
a consignment of staple article of
Japanese food. In this regard, there
fore, it is not the protection of the
actual consumers of the foodstuffs alone
which needs assurance, but that of the
general public health. Honolulu re-
ceives food supplies from three distinct
foreign quarters of the Pacific, and if a
customs laboratory is a good thing any
where it ought to be so here.

According to a late issue of a liter
airy weekly, the cooperative store sys-
tenn is making great progress in the
United States. There it is adopted
largely by workers in distinctive lines
of employment-miners in mining re-
gions. factory operatives in manufac-
turing localities, etc.-as distinguished
from cooperation in England, where it
goes by municipal or shire bounds. Co
operation is a disturber of trade con-
ditions, eliminating middlemen to the
utmost extent, but where well-managed
vies with savings banks in promoting
comfort and thrift among consumers.
The regular mercantile interests can
best stay the march of cooperation
by studying methods of giving salts
faction TO the ultimate buyers of mer-
chandise as earnestly and methodically
as they combine in furtherance of the
fortunes OF sellers. One OF the first
things they would find in setting out
on that tack would probably be a su-
perfluity of middlemen.

500. 600 INVOLVED
And $50 Persons Mixed Up in a Law
Suit.

New York, Nov. 3.-Real estate valued
at fully 500, 900, 900 and in the possession OF
about 2S0 persons, is involved in a series
of legal actions, one of which has just
been brought in the supreme court. The
properties lie in the districts bounded by
Fourth and Sixth avenues and Thirty-first
and Thirty-second streets and Sixth and
Eighth avenues.
IN the present suit William H. LeBoi-
teaux is the plaintiff and publishing
company is defendant. LeBoiteaux con-
tends that he has an undivided interest In
the property occupied by the company,
as one of the heirs of Jacob 1. Arden, the
original possessor of the two tracts,
which, at the time of his death, in 1901,
were known the Arden farm.
One of the properties involved in an
other of LeBoiteaux's suits is that occu.
pied by Robert B. Roosevelt, uncle of
President Roosevelt, at No. 40 Fifth ave-
nue., Mr.. Roosevelt having bought it from
James LenoX, whose title was derived in
directly from Arden. Another series of
actions concerning the same tracts of land
is pending, brought by various plaintiffs
and which involve deeds dating back
cob I. Arden in his will bequeathed the
property to his son, Jacob S. Arden, with
the provision that if the latter died with
out issue the title should pass to John
Summers, son of his sister, Catherine
Summers. tt is stated that John Summers
den in September, 1905. for 5000. Upon
this transfer of right the heir is said to
have disposed of property in which he had
only life interest and as he died unmar-
ried the claim is set up that the property
belonged of right to his heirs.
