BETTER STATUS
OF TERRITORIES
New Bureau in Department
of Interior viii Benefit
Hawaii.
EXECUTIVE ORDER.

1t is hereby ordered that on and
after June l, 1907, all official COM
munications or reports from and to ex-
ecutive officers of the territories and
territorial possessions of the Unite
States, viz: Arizona, Hawaii, New
Mexico, Oklahoma, Porto Rico, Alaska,
Indian Territory, Samoa. and Guam,
and all official communications or re
ports relating to territorial matters
from and to all executive officers of
the United States stationed in sueh
territories and territorial possessions,
shall be transmitted through the Sec
rotary of the Interior IN such manncr
and under such regulations as he may
prescribe.
FTHEODORE ROOSEVELT.
'The White House, May IL, 1907. !"
A copy of the foregoing executive
order has been received by Acting Gov
ernor Atkinson. 1t more fully explains
the news of the changed status of Ha
waiian affairs in the Interior Depart
ment which Mr.. Walker gave in his
latest correspondence printed in the
Advertiser of Saturday last.
~ am mighty glad about this" Mr..
Atkinson said yesterday. lit is
matter l talked with Mar. Garfield about
when / was in Washington last year.
"This change is going to give US
more representation for Hawaii than
ever before. Heretofore Hawaiian
matters have been handled by the
Patents and Miscellaneous Division in
the Department of the Secretary of
Interior.
Although | do not know anybody
who could have done more for Hawaii,
under the limitations of division,
than Mr. WI B. Aeker, who has
handled Hawaiian affairs there, still
there is no question of the advantage
gained in having a bureau establish
ed for the conduct of territorial bust
ness
cit means that the interests of
Hawaii, with those of the other ter
ritories, will, to a quarter degree than
ever, be specialized by the Depart
ment.'

sion. The consequence was torpid

crease OF s12,ooo,000 as far as the
known movements Of money could be
traced. So far as incoming gold may
serve to release credits and reduce
loans the small proportion OF the gold
arrivals which figure in the statement
leaves the actual result understatcd.

pEARFR BREAD.

A raise in the prices of bread and
other products of the bakery is under
consideration by the bakers, to go into
effect on the New Year. The reason
given Is the Increased cost of all the
raw materials of the baker as we'll as
of labor. The bakers in Hudson County
have already decided upon the increase,
which in the case of bread will prob
ably take the form of a diminution of
the size of the loaf.
The business of the baker cannot
well be organized as a trust. Anybody
can set up a bakery establishment, get
all the materials necessary and manu-
facture bread. But the bakers can
combine for mutual profit and protec-
ton, and as they have their associa-
lions they can fix uniform rates for
their products the same as the insur-
ance men and others do, and with as
little fear of the law against combines.
The baker is entitled to as fair return
for his capital and labor as any other
person engaged in business. 1t is true
that -four and wages have gone up in
price and that the bakers profits have
been correspondingly reduced. But
bread is a serious thing to deal with.
1t is the staple food of life; it is on
the tables of all classes, and it is the
principal article of diet in the work.
ingman's dinner pail. A rise in the
cost of bread, either by a reduction of
the loaf or an increase in price, goes
right home to the multitude. 1t hurts.
