ON PEARL HARBOR
The Denver Post of Jan. 21. says:

The Denver Post of Jan. 21. says:
Pearl Harhor, near Honolulu, one of
the finest harbors in the Pacific ocean,
should he dredged and fortified by the
United States government if it intends
to retain its prestige in the Pacific, -
said john l.. McCandless of Pittsburg,
a guest of the Oxford hotel, who is on
his way to his home after an extended
tour OF far Eastern countries.
The harbor is midway between the
western coast of America and the Phil
Itapine possessions of this country and
cGhld easily be put IN such shape that
1t would accommodate fleet twice as
large as the entire naval strength of
the United States Hawaii should be a
powerful factor in the system of ma
tional defense and as Pearl Harbor is
adapted by nature for the needs of a
great naval base il would become one
of the strategic outposts in the Pacific.
s'The future of America, in both the
naval and commercial sense. will be
centered largely in the Pacific ocean.
When the Panama canal is finished a
great impetus Will be given to Pacific
shipping and the American government
will have to meet many questions that
will arise in that part of the globe.

BALL SAYS ANOTHER RAID
WILL Be MADE On LABOR
Thinks the Northwestern Railway
Will Draw Heavily on Our Japa-
nese Field Hand Supplies.

Seattle. washington, January %. 1906.
Editor Advertiser: 1 herewith send
you several clippings that no doubt
will be interesting.
There is a great demand here for
common laborers to work on several
lines of railroads that are now build
ing in this State, or will soon COM
Tnence building, and the supply here
abouts is so inadequate that strenuous
efforts will be made to fill the defcien-
cy by drawing on the japanese labor
ers of the Hawaiian Islands.
1t is quite likely that as many as
several thousand japanese will be OBJ
tanned from your islands within the
next several months, if the schemes
now on foot can be successfully worked.
You will notice that large labor con-
tracing firms are now engineering the
movement. The extent to which the
game may be worked will depend on
circumstances. If the first trip of the
Olympia is allowed to pan-out sue
cessfuIly, financially and otherwise, of
course, you may expect the promoters
to proceed without limit.
Owing to the small number of Japa-
nese who have arrived in the islands
during the past year, I fully appre-
ciate the fact that now is an inoppor-
tune time to further draw on your Ia
Dor supply. and 1 trust that your plan
ters may be successful in averting any
serious depletion until such time as
they may be able to import a reliable
class of laborers.
With best wishes for the interests
of the islands, L am.

Railroads in the West and Northwest
need fully 10000 laborers whom they
are unable to obtain. Owing, therefore,
to a great scarcity of labor, much of
the railroad construction and better
ments which had been planned for this
year by Western roads have been
abandoned.
Efforts have been made in all of the
large cities of the country to induce
laborers to go west for railroad work
but little success has been attained.
Pay is from $1.75 to $3.50 for day labor
ers. and the wages have been offered
everywhere without attracting men.
One railroad president who has been
trying vainly to secure 5000 men for
railroad construction in the Northwest
stated today that he had never known
labor to be SO scarce in the last tWen-
ty-fve years.

construction work is progressing and

The st. Paul, with other roads, is hav-

centralized on the new Pacific Coast
extension. Among the extensions, plan-

Word to the Wise.

This maxim, usually misquoted, "A

the introduction to Poor Richards AL

lowing is the paragraph in which it oc-

"The Way to Wealth.
Il stopped my horse lately where a
great number of people were collected at

hour of sale not being come, they were
conversing on the badness of the times;
and n of the company called to a plain,

players are stationed skirmishers. They
run with it to the goal. These skirmish-
ers are chosen for their 1eetness of foot.
Now and then the ball will fly out from
the struggling group, and catching it in
the little basket at the end of his play
ing stick, an outfielder will speed with
it for the goal, pursued by the rest OF
the players. The opposite side tries to
catch him before he can touch the goal,
while those on his own side interfere
with this pursuit. He is encouraged by
cries Of "Ha-ha-yah!" and "a-ne-gook!"
All join in the shouts, even the pa
pooses.
Now and then, says the Washington
Star, a player will strike the ball and
send It In the air. AS It comes downan-
other player sends it up again. Some-
times for ten minutes 1t will not touch
the ground. Then both players and
spectators reach the widest pitch Of
enthusiasm. This game could be played
with much enjoyment by pale
faces"
