And High Sheriff Henry gave Flint
the time that he asked for in which
to prepare his case. The matter there
fore remains in allegiance for the time
asked for, so far as Captain of the
Harbor Police Flints case is con-
cerned, but Sheriff Henry expresses
his purpose to go to the bottom of the
matter.
AS to Diaz,, B. Griggs Holt said last
night: Il will have a conference upon
this matter tomorrow. and will sift the
evidence against Diaz. Frankly, I do
not see now it is possible that there
could have been anything wrong in the
office under me. There are mighty few
loopholes for crooked work But, if
Diaz has done anything wrong, I will
apply the ak at once. There shall be
no taint of anything wrong in my Of
fee so long as I am connected with
it. 1 will so to the bottom of these
charges, be sure of that"
Mr.. Holt will leave for San Francisco,
on business that has no connection
with his office nor with the charges
that have been made against Diaz on
the Korea. He had in fact, reached a
determination to take that trip on Sat
urday last, before he was made aware
of the charges, and the business is of a
nature so urgent that he cannot now
change his plans.

The water front of Honolulu was all
ripped up yesterday afternoon when
it became known that the government
was investigating charges that had
been made against Captain of the
Harbor Police Harry Flint and, incl
dentally. against Deputy Shipping
Commissioner John Diaz. Flint is a
Territorial officer and Diaz, under
Shipping Commissioner b. Griggs Holt
is in the Federal service, and so the
investigations must be in measure

charges that come from the same
source.
The specific charge against Flint is
that he received in a check from
shipping master one-third of the
''blood money" paid by the master of a
certain ship for the shipment of a crew.
The charge against Diaz is that he
charged ship captains fees for the per-
formance of certain duties of his office
for which the law admits of no charge
being made.

WASHINGTON AT VALLEY FORGE.

WASHINGTON AT VALLEY FORGE.
Valley Forge takes the it's name
from an old iron bridge located in re-
volutionary times on the banks OF
Valley Creek, the site of which is now
marked by dam newly built, in place
of the older one.
Into Valley Forge the disheartened
and almost disorganized troops under
Washington wearily crawled, rather
than marched, in the midst of fierce
snow storm, on December 10, l777.
Their condition was pitable.
Washington, whose great, brave
heart knew well their sufferings,
wrote an account Of their condi-
tion and misery that is compelling.
OF food, they had little or none;
there was less than a round Of powder
and ball for each musket, and not all
of the troops were armed. Clothes
and blankets we're ragged and torn,
and so destitute was the patriot army
of shoes that the march through the
snow could be traced by the bloody
prints left by the feet of the soldiers
on the ice and snow.
An ineffective commissariat and an in
different congress left their wants long
unsupplied until Washington almost in
despair, penned the famous letter in which
he told of nearly FIVE thousand men sick,
naked and unfit for duty out Of a total Of
1000 troops
Valley Forge offered to these men but
an inhoepitable shelter To provide sleep
ing places, so scarce were fit tents, they
were compelled to build huts from logs
hewn from the woods on Mount JOY.
FLIST USED As sHovELs.
To fortify the plan Of camp the soldiers
dug long trenches in the frozen soil with
iints torn from the soil by bleeding FIN
gers. One line Of intrenehments was
thrown upon Mount Joy from point on
the steepest side, looking toward the Ches-
ter Valley. to the edge Of the bluff, IT'S.

FAIR is REVIVED
President of State Board of Agri-
culture Extends Aid to
Rock Island.
PAYS A VISIT TO THE CITY
Will Make Financial Donation and
Give His Services-committee
Soon to Meet.

State financial aid has been offered
the projected Rock Island county fair
| in this city, an undertaking that was
abandoned temporarily last fall after
considerable premliminary work had
| been done.
The promoters felt that the season
had advanced to a point where 1t
would not have been possible to have
completed the buildings and gotten all
| in readiness before the cold weather
| interfered. Therefore il was decided
to let the enterprise rest until the pres
ent summer.
During the week the president of
the Illinois agricultural department,
who is the directing head of the ILL
nois fair held annually at Springfield.
was in Rock Island. He was enthusi-
astic over the outlook for county fair
| in this city. and could not understand
why the business people so long had
overlooked the opportunity for having
one here.
Offers Services to County.
! He said his department encouraged
the holding of fairs throughout the
state and he would like to see Rock
Island fall in line He preferred his
services in getting fair under way
here. and would be at the call of the
local promoters at any time they desir-
ed his assistance He would further
guarantee a donation of 5000 from the
state.
1t will be remembered that the plan
proposed last fall was for the selling
l,f -, ~, .ft Of Tc1a
and Moline and in the outlying towns
sufficient to float the enterprise. 1t
was estimated that at least $4,000
would be required for the erection of
buildings. This is the largest item of
expense. but of course a larger sum
would be necessary.
Stock Would Sell RendIIy.
Those who were preached for sub
scriptions were favorable. II seemed
as if it would not take more than a
few weeks to place the stock in the
county. The location agreed on was
the Ninth street track. This was the
scent of county fairs in the early days
of the city.
The ground is now under lease to
the Twin-City Driving association. The
association holds lease of eight years
but is willing To surrender this to a
fair association on condition the mem
bers are given stock in the new asso-
citation in an amount equal TO that they
have invested in the racing organiza-
ton.
The enterprise was first advanced at
a meeting of citizens held at the Rock
Island Club. Committees were appoint
ed, and an option was stcured on 10
acres of land lying directly north of
the track. This would give 80 acres
for a fair grounds. This option, it is
understood. still is in force.
Rare Advantages Here.
Few cities in the state have the adj

vantage OF having a fair site so close
IL located 10 the business center The
Milan street car line passes WITHIN Two
blocks of the grounds, and likely would
run a track to the entrance were the
fair assured. An exhibition lasting
week is favored. one of the old-fash-
Toned character, with the pumpkin
holding the place of conspicuousness
that il enjoyed in the days before 1t
was backed into obscurity by the au-
tomobile display.
The farmers of this and adjoining
counties will be interested and invited
to enter their live stock and products
of the soil. Mrs. Jones will be asked
to send one of those pies that made her
famous in the neighbOrhOOd, and Mrs
Jenkins will bring in sample OF her
fancy work. Aside from the products
of the farm there will be exhibits from
the merchant and the manufacturer.
An Important Point.
If every manufacturer in the tri-
cities were to send a display. this IN
itself would make an interesting show.
But it is expected that all these will
be counted in, as well as many from
over this and other states. An impor-
tant center such as this is will not be
overlooked by the big manufacturer
who is anxious to get his goods before
the public gaze.
With a population of 100000 people
in the tri-cities, and the thousands in
this county outside the cities. a daily
attendance of several thousand would
be assured from the start. The plan
is TO have two days of horse racing,
with other attractions the remaining
four days.
Driving Matinee This Summer.
The Twin-City Driving association
expects to have several matinees at
the Ninth street park during the sum-
mer, but these will not interfere with
the fair arrangements. The commit
tees appointed last fall are TO be call
ed together at an early date for the
purpose of discussing the resuming of
the preliminaries where they were
dropped.
