RESOLUTIONS
ROAST PINKHAM
POLITICIANS CALL ANOTHER
FEETING TO WHOOP UP THE
WALLACE FARCE.

The following resolutions from Ka-
laupapa were read at a Hawaiian Wal
ZACH meeting on Saturday evening at
Aala Park:
ITO all persons to whom these pres
ents may come:
I'VE, the undersigned, the seven
members of the committee chosen at a
meeting on October Is, 1907, at Bere-
tania Hall, Kalaupapa, to consult with
President Pinlham concerning J. Lor
Wallach, and in that consultation, he
(the PresidenD gave his promise be-
bore us, the members of the commit
ZACH to try his remedies on some of
the lepers here at the Settlement; and
that on his return he would place his
approval before the Board of Health,
and he would also support the report
of the committee, and recommend that
j. Lor Wallach should be allowed to
practice in conformity with the pray
ers of the lepers.
During this consultation, the COM
mittee did not at all ask the Presi-
dent to have a proof from J. Lor Wall
ZACH, or from his (Wallach's) support
ers. The President said There is no
doubt, because, can control the minds
of the members of the Board of Health
to consent to your wishes
and at the mass meeting held on
October II, 1907 the President reas-
sured the people assembled there, OF
his approval to support everything
which has been agreed upon with the
committee, declaring at the same time
as follows: j trust that through my
recommendations, the Board of Health
will give J. Lor Wallach an oppOr-
tunity to try his remedies on the lep-
ers.
And when the committee saw Pres
ident Pinkham's advice to the Board
of Health, in the Advertiser of Octo-
Der %, 1907, to wit: 4 advise the Board
of Health to maintain its position rela-
tive to the production of evidence, and
to demand of the Wallach advocates
the production Of the evidence on
which they have based their represen-
tations to the inmates of the MolOkai
Settlement, and their petitions to the
Board of Health-this is a different
thing altogether from what he had
promised and assured us.
NBut in making this suggestion the
committee knows now that he has
fooled us in the worst kind. In place
of his own acknowledgment before us,
that he would permit J. Lor Wallach
to treat, he had now asked for evil

SAN FRANCISCO, October pa
new comet which has just been discov-
cred by DR. MeIlish, a young amateur
astronomer of wisconsin, is rapidly
approaching the earth, and by Novem-
Der Sth it will probably be visible to
the naked eye. In twenty days, from
October 10Th to November Sth, it will
sweep across the sky, rising earlier
from day to day, until on November
Sth, it may be seen here about 7:SO p.
m.
Three observations have been re-
ceived at the Students Observatory OF
the University of California, and P.o-
fessors Crawford and Leuschner, with
their assistants, have computed the
preliminary parabolic orbit of the new
wanderer in our skies The nearest
that the comet will approach to moth
er earth will be about $4,000, 900 miles,
or $50 times the distance between us
and the moon.

TRTE STORIES OF FORREST AND HIS MEN

own (Forrest's) troops could be ferried across the Tennessee. Rousseanu, who
 usually moved his men forward in wagons, was pressing to the crossing to intercept Forrest Forrest ordered the boats at Bainbridge down to the mouth of Cypress creek, and many of For rests troops were ferrried across there. But on the next day, the enemy hay ing made his appearance in Florence, the boats were dropped down to q lower point. The winds had made the river so rough 1t was hazardous to ferry it.
 nevertheless, taking the risks, tho boats made regular trips day and night. The enemy, meanwhile, were pressing close on Forests rear. At this critical June- ture he ordered all his troops. on the north side of the river, with the excep- ton of one regiment. to mount their horses and swim them across a slough, about 70 yards wide, to an island. where they would find protection until they could be ferried out at leisure. Colonel Windes was ordered to remain with hls regiment and to skirmish with the enemy, thereby diverting his attention until the other troops had reached the island. The strategy was successful Every man reached the island in safety. Colonel Wndes received the highest commenda- tions for the fearless and untrng ef- forts he made in discharging his duty. His fellow soldiers praise him to this day; and Forrest commended him at the time to the Confederate government. His men, though not named in history. were heroes no less worthy of fame. These men. this little regiment, sur rounded by 15,000 of the enemy for three days hung upon his Hanks, assaulting him on every favorable occasion retiring

They made no attempt to escape from their perilous position, but continued in the discharge of their duty until the last Confederate soldier had crossed the river and the enemy began his retreat When Wndes quietly fer ried his regiment over and rejoined his command. he had but two men Killed. four missing. while 70 of the enemy were killed or wounded Thus Forrest, after his daring and destructive raid made his escape from 15,000 federal troops.
 The official report of Forests provo marshal, thus summed up the results of the famous raid in which he lost only AT killed 293 wounded, a total of $40: Captured SG commissioned officers.', e government employees, 1274 non-commis- stoned officers and privates; 93S negroes. besides killing and woundng in the vari- ous engagements about 1000 more; mak- ing 3360 lost to the enemy and an aver age of one to each man Forrest had in the engagement. In addition to these he captured 800 horses. seven pieces of artillery POGO stands of arms, several hundred saddles, 50 wagons and ambu- 1ances. and a large amount of medical. commlsslary and quartermaster stores The greatest damage to the enemy was the complete destruction of the railroad from Decatur to Spring Hill, with the exception of the Duck river bridge.
 The closer study of the individual con- mands which it is hoped will yet be made, will reveal to the people of our section many interesting and important facts and localities connected with ths heroism of our past. ,. Athens, Ala
