turer, humorous and otherwise),
and now it's all off. He won't be

This is the way it happened:
T.B.Warner, Mountain Home
Dear Sir: Mr.. Lybarger has been
delayed in the East through Feb.
ruary and March, and will not
come West until April. We will
give you date later. Regret very
much we cannot supply Lybarger
on the date appointed.
every truly yours,
"GREAT WIN. LYcEUM Blu.
81. M. R."
The above telegram was received
Saturday by Prof. Warner, Super.
intendent of the Mountain Home
Public Schools, through whose ef.
forts these attractions were secured.
He is greatly disappointed, and
will make an effort to secure, as q
substitute entertainment, a date
for the Butterworth Musical Go.
This is very much higher-priced
attraction, and will cost Prof. War
ner, to put it on, just double the
amount involved in connection
with the second attraction of the
regular course, but this will make
no difference in the price of admis-
sicn.
If successful in securing the But
terworth Co. the date will probably
be March 10. Mr.. Lybarger may
be secured for a later date.

TOWNSHIP is SOLD
Necessary Legal Formalites Complied with and
the Situation Is Now Cleared of
Any Possible Clouds.

Last Saturday afternoon, at 2
o'clock, at the front door of the
Court House, the entire townsite
property of Mountain Home was
sold by the Sheriff to satisfy pur-
chase. money mortgage, given to
Andrew w. Mellon and by him as.
signed to DR.. A. J. Ochsner of Chi.
cago. The price at which the
property was bid in was $5218, be-
ing the amount of the mortgage,
interests and costs.
Unusual interest attached to the
sale anong local people, owing to the
fact that MIR. CARROTS company had
sold a large portion of the land
and many elegant residences had
been erected thereon during the
past five or six years.
The sale, as we understand it.

payment of arrearages OF taxes.
For long time this valuable prop
erty has been in such condition
that a good title could not be
given, and Notwithstanding that
several attempts have been made
to clear the title. during the past
five years, they always resulted in
failures.
The impression should not 60
out that Mr.. Garrett or his COM
pany could not pay off this mort
gage, for We know that Mr.. Garrett
has had in his possession since last
April, and still has, New York
draft for $4,000 to meet the obli-
cation, but could not arrange the
title as above stated.
By stipulation between the at
torneys, Messrs. Howie and Wolfe,
all parties who have heretofore
purchased lots, or bargained for
them, and paid for the same, may
now obtain from Mr.. Wolfe a re-
lease of this mortgage, and those
who hold contracts but who have
not yet paid in full, may likewise
have releases by paying the
amount due.

SNOWFALL
Quite General and Re-
suit Is Very Encouraging.

The recent welcome fall of snow
and rain has been very encourag.
ing, especially during the past
week. The precipitation has been
quite general, the mountains and
surrounding country, as far as the
eye can reach, being covered with
a mantle of white.
( The snowfall yesterday was esti.
mated by different people at 8 and
4 inches. In the upper country
the snow on the level ground is
anywhere between 3 and 8 feet.

complaint here about the policy
pursued by the Federal Govern
ment since annexation. Formerly
the revenues collected on imported
goods went into the home treasury.
Now it all goes to the U. S. trea-
sury. So the people here now re-
sort to direct tax to support their
schools, machinery of municipal
and territorial government, etc.
Naturally taxes are high; and
grating is said to be even more
oppressive than in the states. The
Japs and Chinese are nearly one
half the total population. The
barber shops and saloons are run
almost exclusively by Japs. They
are even now boasting of the time
to come when they will drive out
the white men and take the islands
for Japan. II seems warm wea-
ther here now. What it would be
if we should remain till next July
one can only wonder. The soil
is very productive: but in spite of
the large annual rainfall-30 to 60
inches-irrigation is necessary.
Considerable rice is exported,
principally to California. Cain
sugar, however is the principal
crop. A newspaper item says
the exports from the islands for
this year will be two hundred
and fifty thousand tons or more
Wheat grows we'll here and SO
does Indian corn, potatoes, and to-

east and south of the city. The
field looks, at distance, much
like field Of corn; but the stalks
are taller, with leaves five or six
feet long, and 20 inches wide. The
plants appear to be set about 5
feet apart each way on fat beds or
ridges, with spaces of the same size
filled with water about six inches
deep. The beds on which the
plants grow are only 6 or s inches
above water. / am told it takes
six months to mature a crop OF
bananas from the time of planting.
So far as | can learn, Honolulu
is very healthy place at present.

people. Hawaii, from which the
group is named, is the largest in
area, 4,210 square miles, with
population of 1926; the next in
size is Maui, 760 miles, with II,
726 population. Molokai, $50
miles, is the Leper colony. Mol.
okai lies south east 80 miles off,
and can be seen on clear day.
Whether all the people on this
island are lepers, is hard to find
out. No one seems willing to give
information as to the extent and
prevalence of leprosy. All I can
find out in this regard is the fact
that the law requires all peace off.
GERS to arrest and prosecute all
known lepers, and it is made their
duty to diligently search for them.
When found they are at once con-
signed to the Leper settlement
never to return. The census of
1896 gives Molokai's population as
2,370. / have been told that there
are something over 1900 bad cases
there. Of course there are some
cases, and probably great many,
not found out concealed no doubt,
by friends. Leprosy was intro
duced by the Chinese brought
here to work on the sugar planta-
ton of Ladd & Co. on the island of
Maui. 1t first attacked some
natives in 1858. The dreadful
disease soon spread to an alarming
extent. An act was passed Jan. 8,
1865, to isolate the lepers, and TO
provide separate establishments
and hospitals for them. Five
thousand acres Of land was pur-
chased on the north side of Molo-
kai. This land is surrounded by
the ocean on three sides and on the
south side shut in by steep prec-
ipice from 1000 to 5000 feet high.
One hundred sixty lepers were
sent there at once, More and more
are sent there every year, until
now, notwithstanding the incurable
character of the disease, and the
enormous d cath rate, they admit
that there are 1900 live lepers
there now! The expense of the
Leper colony is borne entirely by
the Territorial government.
That reminds me: There is much

We have been in this strange
city one week; had a splendid trip
and enjoyed ourselves well on the
sea. The weather was fine; with
no gales nor strong winds at any
time. We were on the Alameda,
the same vessel that ran on the
rocks at Fort Point, where she
stuck and was pounded SO un-
mercifully by the waves for ten
days, several months ago. She
was unloaded and finally pulled of
the rocks, run into the Risdon
Iron Works and rebuilt. We were
, on board in her first sea voyage
after the disaster at Fort Point.
The vessel is apparently in sea-
worthy shape now, though her en-
gineer complained that "she burns
too much fuel" (oil) "for the power
and speed developed"--14 miles an
D hourA We found her passenger ac-
commodations strictly firstclass, her
officers and crew efficient, attentive,
kind, obliging and very solicitous
for our comfort. No "tipping" nor
extra charging for any service

ardesses is permitted. My wife

IT'S FOR JUNEAU

The Juneau Record-Miner explains
its switch" from It's allegiance to the
republican party Of Alaska and the
Shoup commission plan of government,
which it supported when is was boost
ting for Mr.. Shoup, to the Irregular"
democratic candidate and the strong
territorial plank upon which he is run
ming by saying that when the issue OF
sectiouslism is to the front it IS for
Southeastern Alaska. At the same
time it says it is opposed to Gov. Swine
ford, whom it inconsistency calls
psrish because he refuses TO be bound
on local Alaskan issues by his sllegl-
Ance to a national political party Just as
the Record Miner itself refused to be
bound by its party allegiance, who is
the only man in Southeastern Alaska
that there WAS ever chance to elect.
All of this means that the Record
Miner, as is SO with many Others
Of Juneau, thinks Southeastern Alaska
AMI Juneau are synonyms, and the argu'
ments for party politics which were so
s,reuuous!y urged were for the purpose
of putting Juneau in control Of the
situation,
The Record-NIiner is Lot exactly fair
when it says 1t is for Southeastern Alas
IA against the world It is for juneau
the remainder Of Southeastern Alaska,
the question Of seli-government, the
question Of politics and all the other
questions are as nothing TO it.
The candidates for delegate at tomor-
rows election upon which there are no
Juneau strings and whose candidates.
have no faint OF political trickery about
them are Gov. SriuefOrd, Thomas Gale
and Frank H. Waskey.
