Dietz-Barrows
rSVww1v1Vw9vww

Says the Santa Rosa California
Republican:
An announcement of an engagement;
that will come with pleasure to many
friends of the contracting parties is
that of Miss Edith Ainslee Barrows
and III. Werner Dietz, of Honolulu for
merly well known resident of Sono-
ma county.
For some time past the friends VI
Miss Barrows have suspected the
pleasant news, but the secret has been
carefully guarded. Now that it has
become known, the fair bride will be
overwhelmed with best wishes from
many friends. The wedding of the pop
ular couple will take place about
Thanksgiving time, and will be strict
ly home affair. The Dietz family
win come from their home in the is
lands to be present at the nuptials
and some members of the La Solano
Club, an exclusive organization of
graduates of the University of Cali
fornia, to which the bride-elect be-
longs, will also be in attendance.
Miss Barrows has rendered her res
schools and viii terminate her connec-
tion with them on Monday. She is one
of the most popular teachers in the
county, and the Board of Education is
sorry to lose her services from the ed
ueational work. She has been singu-
larly successful in her chosen line.
Miss Barrows is a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Whitman Barrows
and sister of Mrs Frank L. Hoyt of
this city, and is the descendant of an
old and prominent family, whose iden-
THY was closely linked with the early
history of this country. Since coming
here to make her home she has en-
deared herself to a wide circle of
friends and these will learn with pleas
ure of the approaching happy event.
Miss Barrows is a graduate of the
University of California of the cass of
1908, and it was at the classic univer-
sity town that Don Cupid caused the
loving hearts to become engaged. The
bride to be is decidedly attractive
girl, charming conversationalist and
talented in many ways.
Mr.. Dietz is a member of "a promi-
nent family, which formerly resided at
Guerneville, where his father, Gerhard
Dietz, was postmaster for sixteen
years, being now in business as a lead
ing jeweler in Honolulu. Miss Mar
garet Daisy Dietz and Mrs. Edith
Dietz Wall, both of whom We're promi-
nent teachers in Sonoma county, are
sisters of the groom-elect. The hus-
band of the latter, Walter E. Wall, is
surveyor general of the Hawaiian
Islands. : Miss Margaret Dietz is at
present visiting in Colorado, where
Miss Barrows spent some time the past
summer. The groom-elect is a grad
late of the Petaluma high school and
IF the University of California, of the
eass of 1906. He is a member of the
Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity At the
present time he is in Wyoming, where

PEOPLE. FROM HAWAII
IN THE PHILIPPINES

Phil. eB. Dankey, well known in
newspaper and hotel connections here,
favors the Advertiser with copy of
an Industrial number of the Manila
Daily Bulletin of which he is editor.
Exclusive of cover it contains sixty
pages, quarto size and three columns
newspaper measure to the page, hand
somely printed and profusely illustrat-
ed. Joseph L. Travis, another former
Honolulu newspaperman, is the COM
piler of the number, which is devoted
to setting forth the resources and
progress of Panay and Negros Islands.
Here is tempting offer for some
trained young sugar planter. The paper
describes the Yulo estate on Negros,
containing SO haciendas with 1880
acres of land cleared for planting cane
It produces an annual crop of about
1000 tons of sugar, besides shipping
rice, corn, cotton, spirits distilled from
tuba, copra, coffee, hemp, sweet pota-
toes, maguey, etc. There is also a
large range for cattle but, because of
the lack of cattle, large portion OF
the estate can not be handled. Don
Pedro told the writer of the article
that he would like to have prac-
teal American sugar planter take hold
of the estate and bring it up to date.
81 am too DID, said Don Pedro,
to go to the United States and Ha-
wall and learn how they do things on
a big scale there At the same time
I would make it worth someone IS while
done.''
Don Pedro then went on to say that
he would give the estate, rent free,
for Is years to the man who would
give bond to put in one or more
up-to-date mills, with the necessary
tramways, ETC., steam plows and all
the other modern machinery that will |
get all of the land under scientific I
treatment to produce the best results /
And [ viii agree, continued Don
Pedro, at the end of the fifteen years
to buy all of the improvements at their
assessed valuation.
Alfred Jeanjaquet, mentioned as one
of the most progressive men in the
San Carlos district, is said to have
been making special study of the
subject of central sugar mill, and
to be now endeavoring to interest Ha-
waiian capital in the project.
Fl. J. Gallagher, who had many years
experience in Hawaii, is superintend-
ent of a plantation in La Carlota dis
triet, cultivating mostly Hawaiian cane
and having 4-horse power hydraulic
mill. Mr.. Gallagher, formerly school
teacher in these islands and latterly /
employed on Honolulu plantation, be-
sides having pineapple interests here,
would appear to have also taken a
course in the Hawaiian college of reti-
eence. "He would not discuss the af-
fairs of the plantation with the

ADJUSTMENTS TO-DAY.
SENATOR cLARK,s LAND BILL

Senator w. A. Clark Of Montana. i'm a
bill introduced on Tuesday, offers So
luton of the problems involved in dis
position OF the public domain. that
would be entirely satisfactory TO the
western states. and ought to suit the
east if the situation were understood
there as it is here
Briefly stated. Senator ClarKs pro-
posal is to give TO each state the public
lands within its boundaries. subject 10
the. observance Of existing contracts.
Military and Indian reservations would
be excepted until thrown open 10 The
public; lands withdrawn for irrigation
enterprises under government direction
would be exempt unless the state in
terested undertakes to complete the
work on the lines planned by the gov
eminent. Forest reserves would be-
come subject to state control
If the plan proposed by Senator Clark
were adopted, it would at once interest
each state affected in the proper con-
troll and disposition of its public lands.
Instead of having a bureaucracy in
Washington to be consulted, the people
OF the state. through their proper au-
thorities would have the power to say
how these lands should be managed.
and who would manage them. A direct.
vital responsibility would be vested in
the commonwealth that would inev-
itaBly demand and receive the consid-
Grafton such an important trust needs
IL goes without saying that the people
OF a state, familiar with all the local
conditions, knowing the best use to
which lands could be put. and realizing
the possibilities Of revenue from them.
are better qualified TO administer such
a trust than is a department of the gov
ernment i'm Washington. controlled by n
bureaucracy and subject To political
manipulation from all the other states.
The worst troubles arising in the land
department have been due to the fact
that the most powerful influences in
congress had no special interest in the
states where public lands are located.
nor had they any adequate idea of the
extent and character of those lands
Political considerations alone ruled:
and generally those considerations were
opposed to the best interests of the peo-
pie and the states most directly af-
I1ected.
II each state were granted the lands
in its domain. the first result would be
to interest the citizens of each state in
the lands so acquired. in their POSSIBLE
titles. mineral and agricultural. They
would feel a personal concern about the
management and development Of the
Estates resources that is impossible I'M
der the present system. The red tape
and long-drawn formalities which at
tend land transactions with the govern
ment would be simplifed so the average
citizen who wished TO acquire land
could do il promptly and economically.
Viewed in whatever way, the transfer
to the states would be a long step In
the direction Of western progress.

PEvERIDeE AND HIS BILL.

X
Senator Beveridge and Senator
Spooner both showed considerable as
perity in their interchange of remarks
during the Holsters speech on his pro-
posed child-labor bill Senator Spoon
er, who is usually conceded by Repub-
leans TO have what the west calls can
immortal cinch" on all knowledge
asked Beveridge II the proposed law
would be constitutional. The question
itself seemed innocent enough, but the
Indiana man took it as a reflection on
his own intelligence and knowledge OF
law. whereat he grew acid, almost hos
tile, and retOrted causticalIy that he
might possibly give the Wisconsin SEN
ator some information. but the Wiscon-
sin senator didn't think so.
The fact is that the Wisconsin man
had the best of the situation. and he
touched n tender point when he raised
the question of constitutionality. Child
labor is a terrible evil and it should
be abolished in factories and other
places where the child's health and life
are endangered: but the proposal to
abate the evil by federal legislation. by
barring the product Of such labor from
interstate transportation. is an cs-
sumption that the states have broken
down as governmental powers, and
that no remedy for public wrong exists
except in the federal government. The
logical sequence of such a theory would
be a resort to federal interference in
state domestic affairs in every direc-
ton. If the products of child labor are
to be barred from interstate commerce.
il would be a simple matter to Iegislate
against any other objectionable pro-
duct. or what may seem Objectionable
TO some member of the majority i'm
congress. provided always that the
court will sustain such laws.
Senator Spooner probably had in mind
the recent decisions of federal courts.
notably i'm the employers liability act.
when they held that the constitutional
provision for federal regulation of in
terstate commerce was not intended TO
cover the employment of an individual
i'm a state, and that in such cases the
states retained the power to legislate
for themselves.
In passing It may be noted that Sen
ator TiIlman hit the nail on the head
when he called attention to the fact
that inhumanity TO children of the
south was due to northern capitalists
owning the cotton mills who had intro
duced the evil and corrupted the legis-
latures to prevent legislation against
it. The fact is so well known that the
bare mention of it suficed to end the
discussion which had been injected
into the proceedings by Senator Cal
linger of New Hampshire.
1t lies entirely within the power of
the mill owners to end the evil with
out legislation Of any kind and at the
present rate of growth in public opin-
ion on the subject. the southern states
themselves are likely to- take the mat
ter in hand and end the employment Of
children in what has aptly beeen called
child slavery.

An Example Of UnseIfishness.

noteworthy example Of highmind-
edness and unselfshness was recently
set by southern woman bearing an
honored name. A resolution was in
troduced in the state senate Of North
Carolina providing pension Of $lOO
per month for the by-no-means-rich
widow of the famous General "Gtone-
WALL Jackson. OF its passage there
would have been little doubt, says
Leslie's Weekly, had Mrs. Jackson
herself not interposed. But she
promptly wrote a letter to the senate,
saying that the present state laws
limit all pensions to persons who have
not $500 Of personal property, and as
she possessed more than that she re-
Quested that the bill be withdrawn
and the money 1t was proposed to
give her be appropriated for the re-
lief Of destitute widows of confederate
veterans. Mrs. Jackson's plea was
needed, and now she is held in even
higher general esteem than ever be-
fore.
