TRAIN DISPATCRING.
New Office in Waterviie Opened Early
Sunday Morning.

This morning, commencing with the
first minute after midnight the work
of the new dispatcher coming on the
first trick began at the Maine Central
Railroad station in Waterville. The
arteroom leading from the regular
operators desk in the front office to
the room previously occupied for work
in connection with the work of car
checkers and other minor details of as
sociated offices being now in use for
these new departments.
This long-anticipated change by
which Waterville was to be recognized
according to its true importance as a
Central station has at last been real
lied. Said one of the experienced Off
Gals to the reporter recently in this
connection There is no point in
Maine on the lines of the NJ. =. r. r.
where so much business is daily tram
sacted as at this important terminal.
Here We have been having freights
due TO enter and due to leave from
the two main tracks of the company
leading from Portland, from the Ban
gor main line, the Skowhegan, the Bel
fast and Dover and Foxcroft branches
and which have been hitherto been
handled from distant offices at the eX-
pense of unavoidable and frequent de-
lays.
The yards have been filled with Sec
ions of trains which, under different
regulations would have been made up
and sent to their destined points with
dispatch. This convenience will not
| only establish Waterville as an impor-
tant railroad center but serve greatly
to facilitate the business done by the
company in the interests of the entire
State"

NATIVE HAWAIIAN RACE.
Depopulation of the Aborigines of the
Islands-The Causes.

From the Honolulu Advertiser.
A very dark shadow has been felt to hang
over the future of the native Hawaiians.
1t comes from the early and obstinate de-
population which began with Cooks dis
covery in ITS The most reliable estimates
place the then population at not less than
$50, goo. At the arrival of the missionaries
in 1920 not more than $50, 900 remained, and
the multitude of abandoned village sites
gave the old missionaries an impression
that fully two-thirds of the people had
disappeared
The causes of that enormous mortality
We're not obscure. They were the introduce
ton among a long isolated nature race
wholly lacking the immunity enjoyed by
continental peoples, of new and yirulent
diseases. which swept them off. Chief
among those diseases was one which
Cooks ship brought and which speedily
infected the entire population. tuberculosis
contributed.
Added to these hostile influences were the
depopulating wars of Kamehameha. and the
destructive collection of sandalwood, while
whaleships converted every seaport into
public brothel.
Mitigating and remedial influences have
since then operated favorably under in
creasing moral culture and intelligence, but
the depopulatin Is not yet wholly checked.
Estimating from the later census figures,
there are now remaining less than 10000
10000 part Hawaiians. The total racial
dininution has been about one-half in the
past half century, although part-Hawaiians
have rapidly increased during that time.
The excess of deaths over births still re-
mains, with a great mortality among the
pure Hawaiian children
What are their prospects for the future?
We should answer measurably hopeful.
There is manifest Improvement. Especially
is this the case among the mixed breed,
who are rapidly gaining in numbers, due to
their superior energy and intelligence, and
to their wiser care of offspring. Under
present outlook, the mixed Hawaiians are
likely in a very few generations greatly to
exceed the pure native breed in numbers.
The prevailing language of both classes will
have become entirely English, due to the
vigorous teaching of English in the common
schools, where Portuguese and Asatic
youth alike with Hawaiian are learning
good United States" which viii displace
the outiandish tongues, as 1t does on our
continent
The future commingling of Hawaiian
blood with the other races will not be an
unwholesome one. The Hawaiian nature
is courageous and generous and peculiarly
receptive to new light. The Japanese race
ancient.y received very large infusion of
ceanate Oceanic blood which loosened up
their ancient Monaghan stiffness and made
them versatile and receptive We may thus
look forward to the future descendants, or
tue native Hawaifans with hopefulness and
pride. The future composite result VIII
make the coming Hawaiian civilization
bright one under the presiding power of
American institutions.
