Every body admits that these are
not the characteristics OF the candle
or kerosene lamp. which. formerly.
were the only feasible means OF pro

rural districts.
For generations there was a crying
need, a yearning for something better.
which was not satisfied. A few years
ago deliverancs came in the shape OF
the chemical compound, Calcium Car
bide. from which. by the simple an-
plicstion OF water. the gas Acetylene
is derived. Acetyiene meets all the
requirements fully and admirably and
is being generally used.
Common lime and carbon in tho
form OF coke or coal are the raw ma
terials which. fused in an intensely
heated furnace. make Calcium Car
bide. and there is no difficulty in OBJ
taining Il in any part Of the country.

toned in the invitation of the National
Civic Federation are a number tha,
bear intimately upon this declared poll
cy, the following ones for example,:
What are the nature, extent ard
locality of the demands in the United
States for more labon r"
What practical method car be de-
vised of distributing immigration es-
pecially for agriculture, to points where
it may be needed?"
(The foregoing question is one that
constituted about the first serious
problem that the local board came up
against. If European immigrants could
be recruited for Hawaii at New York,
how were they to be brought here with
out a large proportion struggling off
at intermediate points on the way?)
Should the exclusion of Chinese
coolie labor be made more rigid. and
should it be extended to japanese and
Korean labor?"
Acting Governor Atkinson, in giving
out the correspondence that appears
below, emphasized the object of set
tlement as one he holds supreme.
Whatever labor we are able to in
troduee ought to be settled in the coun-
try. There should be stop put to the

Quick to take advantage of any op-
portunity for promoting the Amer.
icanization of Hawaii-the policy near
est to his heart and most commanding
to his head-Acting Governor Atkin-
son promptly and in eloquent terms has
dictated a cordial acceptance of an
invitation for the appointment Of ten
delegates to represent the Territory
of Hawaii at a national conference on
immigration, to be held in New York
City on December 6 and Z, under the
auspices of the National Civic Fedora
ton. August Belmont, the financial
magnate, heads the signatures to the
invitation and to him Mr.. Atkinson's 8
reply is directed.
The opportunity for Hawaii to be
represented at a national conference on
immigration could not have arrived at
few weeks since the newly created
board of immigration for the Territory
was organized Commissioner General
Sargent was present at its inaugura-
tion and gave the members Of the
board valuable advice, empha sizing the
desira bility of the Territory's seeking
a class of immigrants which should set
tie the country, develop new industries
and become a permanent source of la
Dor for the plantations.
Acting Governor Atkinson signal
lied the event of this new departure
in methods of procuring needed immi-
grafton by declaring, in unmistakable
terms, the policy of the administration
to be that of encouraging the influx of
elements capable of building up the
body of American citizenship in this

The total area of this reserve i.
42,969 acres and of this the two govern
ment lands to be set aside are the Ma
hil1u forest tract of 1904 acres and the
West Koolau forest tract of 6079 acres
On both these tracts the water rights
are controlled by the Baldwin interests
The remaining lands within the re-
serve are either government lands under
lease or private lands held in fee by the
/ Baldwin interests.
| Mr.. Rolph stated that H. p Baldwin
was about to deed to the government
the aforementioned forest lands to be
administered as forest reserve so long
as the government maintains it's forest

The reserves in question are set apart
perpetually, but # it be found advan-
; tageous through change of economic
conditions to utilize the land to better
advantage for purpose other than that
of forestry, the boundaries of the re-
nor after full discussion at a public
hearing.
The area of the Koolau reserve may
roughly be described as extending from
the Hana-Koolau district boundary line
at the east end, to the land of Opana
in Hamakuloa at the west, and from
the line of the Koolau and upper Ha-
makua ditch to the crest of the ridge
on the side of the crater of Haleakala
The area embraced by the Halelea
reserve (beyond and above HanaleD in
cludes the greater part of the district
of Halelea above the belt of the agri-
cultural and grazing land near the sea.
The lower line may be roughly describ-
ed as following. the foot of the steep
slope of the main ridges. The other
lines follow the ridges, making the
natural boundary of all the Haleakala
district.
A proclamation will be signed by the
Acting Governor. approving as forest
reserve the land with boundaries de-
scribed and setting apart as compart-
ments of the reserves. the Unbiased gov

A public hearing to confirm the crea-
ton of forest reserves on the islands of
Kauai and Maui was held yesterday af-
ternoon at the Department of Agricul-
ture and Forestry. Present were Act
ing Governor Atkinson, superintendent
of Forestry Hosmer, J. D. Dole. Harry
Whitney, representing w. G. Irwin &
10. as agents for the Kilauea Planta-
bn; G. NJ. Rolph, representing the H.
p. Baldwin interests, which are particu-
larly large in the Maui reserve, and E.
E. Paxton, who was present on behalf
of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Asso-
citation.
Governor Atkinson called the meet
ing to order and Prof. Hosmer explain
ed the situation with regard to each of
the proposed reserves and submitting
his report upon the same made to the
OOdrQ. After tAC ASSOAoShOAA'
adopted by the board he recommended
the creation of the reserves.
The area of the Kauai reserve is 40,5o0
acres, out of which 3O4O acres have
been excluded as possible agricultural
land. Although this is technically ex-
cluded from the reservation it will actu-
ally be reserved until such time as
actually needed for settlement
OF the remaining 1880 acres the two
government lands actually set apart
have the following acreages: Waioli.
1850 acres; Hanalei, including the agri-
&cultural land mentioned, 11.340 acres.
making a total of 1880 acres definitely
made into forest reserve.
OF the other lands in the Kauai re-
serve, waipa and Lumahai belong to
tie Bishop Estate. Wainiha is owned
" native hui, but the water rights
have been leased for a long term of
year by the Kauai Electric Power Co.
Kalihiwai is owned in great part by
the Hon. A. S. Wilcox and in part by
the Kilauea Plantation.
Mr.. Wilcox has signified his intention
of turning over to the custody of the
government the portion of kaiihiwai |
owned by him. The Bishop Estate have |
declared their intention OF reserving
their lands for forest purposes and it is I
probable that similar arrangement |
will be effected in the case of the XII |

Exploit with q Whala

Two fishermen of Freemantle. West
ern Australia, named William Fraser
and Thomas August, recently met with
a sensational experience while sailing
II miles off Dongarra at night. Fraser
was lying asleep and August was run
ming the boat under full sail. Suddenly
the little craft came in contact with a
whale, and the latter, becoming en-
ragged, turned on the boat, and even.
tually sank it, leaving the two men and
several spars, masts, and oars floating
about in the water. Fraser was unable
to swim, but August, who is a good
swimmer, collected the floating timber
and constructed a raft, on which he
placed his companion August then
swan behind the raft and pushed it
over the stretch of II miles to land.
which was reached by O'Clock next
afternoon. During the time on the
raft the men had neither food nor
water, and there are sharks in the re-
gion.-LOndon Globe.

MOTOR CAR MALADIES.
Complaints Contracted by Passengers
in the High-Speed Con-
veyances.

When railway trains were first heard
of it was confidently predicted that they
would produce alarming disorders in
those who had the temerity to travel in
them, says Cassell's Journal.
Needless to say the predictions were
wholly falsified; but there appears to
be no doubt that certain maladies are
induced by travelling in motor cars.
One of these complains is aerophagia.
the result of inhaling torrents OF air
while travelling at high speed. Amongst
the evils produced in this way are d.
gestive disturbances, chills and bron-
chitis.
Then there is the dust, which causes
irritation Of the nose and throat. and in
jury to the skin and complexion.
To the list of ailments caused by high
speed motoring may be added strained
eyesight and nervous depression. 1t fol-
lows. therefore, that the pastime is one
to be pursued with caution by the fair
sex, who have to face the additional ter
rors of wrinkled faces and stopped
shoulders. the further effects of unre-
strained automobile driving.
