ROOSEVELT ON NAVY

President Roosevelt, discussing the
navy in his message, says:
Our navy must, relatively to the
pavies of other nations, always be Of
greater size than our Army. We have
most wisely continued for a number
of years to build up our Navy, and 1t
has now reached fairly high standard
of efficiency. This standard of eff.
cheney must not only be maintained,
but increased. 1t does not seem to me
necessary, however, that the Navy
shouldn't least In the immediate flu
ture-be increased beyond the present
number of units. What is now clearly
necessary is to substitute efficient for
inefficient units as the latter become
worn out or as 1t becomes apparent
that they are useless. Probably the re-
suit would be attained by adding a
single battle-ship to our Navy each
year, the superseded or outworn yes.

meet the argument for allowing ap,

cases In which Federal questions are
not involved, or, If 1t is deemed best
TO allow such appeals, 1t would tend to
reduce the number of cases in which
such appeals would be taken.

ORIENTAL MONEY ORDERS
SHOW LARGE INCREASE

The largest money order exchange
hist to be sent through the Honolulu
post Office for the Orient, principally
for Japan, went out this morning in
the United States mails on the s. s.
Doric. All told there were 1464 orders,
ranging in sums from 81 up into the
hundreds. The money order sales at
the postofiice during the past few days
for Orientals amounted to S35,15i.35,
This, on an average, amounts to 81 for
every japanese on the islands.
Some of the money goes to China, but
the larger portion of it Is for Japan.
The amount is considerably more than
has ever been sent from here to the
Orient during the holidays or any
other time. 1t indicates and gives an
Idea of the gradual increase OF the
Japanese population in this country.
Thousands of dollars were also sent
by drafts through the japanese bank
as well as much money by the Ameri-
can institutions In addition many ex'
press orders We're disposed of by the

CHANGE BOND LAW.

Governor Carter, in his report. speaks
of the present unsatisfactory manner
of issuing bonds, as follows:
The Limitation as to the length OF
time for which bonds can be issued has
greatly hampered the Territory. One
class Of investors does not desire q
bond Of so short term as fifteen years,
and there always will be considerable
expense to the Territory in making
provision to refund its Indebtedness.
On the other hand, another class of In.
vestors prefer bond where a sinking
fund Is established for the redemption
of certain percentage every year. To
meet such, the more modern system is
to issue a bond redeemable any time
after one year and payable before TWEEN.
ty years, providing that per cent. OF
the issue shall be redeemed each year.
II would seem wise, and would be great.
ly In the Territory's interest, for Con-
gress to modify the organic act so as
to permit the making of its bonds pay
able In not more than thirty years from
the date of the issue thereof.
