HAWA||ANS IN GOLDFIELD
REGRET LEAVING HOME

Hawaiians who were prosperous here,
and had every chance to enjoy life In
the most soothing climate on earth,
but who were attracted to Goldfeld by
the glitter that does not always mate
rialize in gold 18k. fne-at least some
such Hawaiians-are now facing heavy
losses and casting longing glanees
homeward. Private, and presumably
more or less confidential, adviees just
received from the big Nevada mining
camp, convey the news that one Homo
lulu man has lost $4,000. Another man
has lost heavily, but there has been
no summing up as yet. This one
writes:
''The stocks here have gone so low,
owing to financial breaks all over the
country. strikes at home, and wild
caters abroad, that I am up against
it. with most of the people here I'M
less the market gets a boost on soon.
You were right when you wrote that
only very, very few get rich in min
ing camps; the uncertainty of mining
stocks I'll remember the rest Of my
time''
This information is straight, but
names are withheld, for obvious rea-
sons.

May SOLVE SERVANT PROBLEM.

! A number of scoth girls will soon be
en- route for Georgia. These girls are
robust, hard working women, accus-
toned to domestic labor, having no
false views as to the work of a servant,
and are willing to enter the homes of
this State in that capacity.
This may be the entering wedge for
the solution of the vexatious servant
problem. No housekeeper needs to be
told of the difficulties experienced in
getting and keeping capable, honest.
and Industrious help, 1t is the one
serious problem of life in Georgia, and
doubtless in many other States as well.
The introduction of hundreds of the
''bonny Scotch lassies would probably
go long ways toward effacing this
problem and making house keeping an
easier and more pleasant road. Scotch
girls are early trained to habits of in
dustry. They are quick witted, easily
trained, and can hardly be compared
with the slovenly Indifferent, untrain-
ed negro help who do so much to re-
duce housekeepers to a state of nervous
prostration.
The advent of a number of these girls
into community might also stimulate
the negro women into new exextions.
The fact that white labor was being
sought and secured to fllrthe places
heretofore occupied by them might
have the effect of making better and
more reliable servants of them. The
danger Of being entirely ousted from
their positions would tend to improve
their work and lead to greater efforts
on their part to give satisfaction.
The only drawback to the plan that
we can see is that before long the blue
eyed Scotch lassie Jeans would have
sweethearts, and soon the sweethearts
would become husbands. But Georgia
would be the gamer then by the estab-
lishment of new homes where strong
bodied, clear headed, honest, indus
trious citizens Of the future would be
reared,

displays conspicuously an interview
with the sultan of Turkey. The
monarch on being congratulated on his
apparent good health, said that he
never felt better. He expressed a
wish for a continuance of the long
standing friendship between Great
BEitain and Turkey. He referred to
the case of Fehim Pasha, ex-chief Sc
cret police, who was exiled at the
behest Of the German ambassador,
saying that he felt there had been an
infringement of his personal dignity
inasmuch as it had been pressed upon
him personally although it was a
matter entirely Of Turkeys internal
concern. The interviewer found the
sultan keenly interested in world poll

believed are to play great
part in history and possessed of a
great faith in the future of the Turks
and especially if they are due to the
Koran.

WILLIE HEARsT's Willy SCHEME

Willie Hearst, of New York Ameri-
independence League is to drop it's
connection with both of the old parties,
perfect its organization still further,
and become a more active and aggres-
sive factor in the political life of New
York and the country.
Hearst is cold FLOODED proposition,
at the best.
Il am happy says he, "That our
league is growing in strength. By first
allying itself with the Republican party
and then with the Democratic party, it
has been able to advance the principles
it espouses.
This is about as candid a confession
as man could well make.
It is an open acknowledgement of
what has often been charged, that
Hearst and his ieutenants had no use
for the Democratic party other than to
have it promote their own ends.
Having made all the use possible of
the party they now shake off any
further allegiance to it, and propose to
do it as much damage as possible.
There was an attempt sometime back
to read Hearst and his crew out of the
Democratic party.
1t looks to us as though they had
read themselves out of it.
There should certainly be no place in
the next national convention for Hearst
or the Hearstites.
