JOURNALISM IN THE
CANN|bAL ISLANDS

Holyoke, Mass, Telegram: The
Telegram is in receipt of a letter
from a Honolulu daily advertiser.
The letter is accompanied by a paper
which shows that Honolulu is certain
ly enterprising. The paper itself is
printed in English, and is exceedingly
well illustrated. 1t contains a four
column cut, several three column ones,
and others which are smaller. illus
trating the floral parade which was
held there Washington's birthday.
There are many features of the paper
which are exceedingly interesting to
Americans because they explain how
Hawaiians view American affairs.
There is one article of particular in
terest which refers to an interview be-
tween a reporter for the paper and
Minister WI Ting Fang who has late
ly arrived in this country. The lat
ter interview also gives an idea of
Honolulu.

Mine Workers of America has enlisted
in the Taft cause and says that the
miners will support Taft almost to a
man. He said:
While l am not like Mr.. Gompers,

ginia and Missouri, and have sounded
the workingmen in these places. In
each case the sentiment for Taft has
been greater than l expected it to be
and there appears to De no doubt of
the republicans carrying the states.
AS for Ohio and such states, it is a
mere matter of majorities.

WATER POWER
COMES TO FRONT
Great Developments in the
South.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE improve
ment of steam engines practically put
water power into the background, and
kept it there for several years. But in
this age of wonderful electrical ad-
vancement, water powers are again to
the front, and Hypothetical work
has assumed large proportions in the
south Over 100000 horsepower
is now under development, at cost of
$40, 100000 to $50,OOO,OOO. With much
already accomplished in the James
river in Virginia, the Roanoke in
North Carolina, the Chattahoochee in
Georgia, the Tallahassee in Alabama
and in other streams. activities are be-
ing speeded for the making available
of millions of horsepower in the vast
region stretching from the Susquehan-
ma to the Rio Grande in sections tribu-
tory to the Potomac, the James, the
Roanoke, the Catawba, the Yadkin,
the Pee Doc, the Savannah, the Chat
tahoOchee, the Tennessee, the War
rior. the Cumberland, the Ohio, the
Kanawha, the Red, and the Llano.

YUKON GOVERNMENT
Ten YEARS OLD
Country Has Produced $780,
600 in Gold.

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 17.-Ten years
ago on Sept. 3, the first territorial gov
eminent of the Yukon territory was
formally installed in Office at Dawson,
the capital of the Yukon. Governor
William Ogilvie, the first commander,
with seventeen assistants arrived on
that day from White Horse by the
steamer Ora and Immediately estab-
lished temporary headquarters in a big
log cabin building that had been erect
ed for the purpose.
Since that time the famous Klondike
district and adjoining creeks have pro-
duced total of over $1OO,OO0OOO in
gold, all of which has gone into the
worlds Golfers and is being used in
the conduct of the worlds business. 1t
is to properly celebrate this fact and
bring about further development of the
gold resources of the Yukon and Alaska
that tho Aleska-Yukon-Pa Pacific eXposi-
ton is being held at Seattle next sum-
mer. Gold has done much for the
world, and this is the first time that an
exposition has been held to give it
honor.
The Yukon territory is still great
gold producer. Within the last few
years, while the methods of gold ex-
traction have been undergoing a
change, the production has dropped off,
but with the installation Of dredges,
hydraulic appliances and huge water
systems the gold production will re-
reive big impetus that will soon put
the Yukon back in the front rank.
Governor Ogilvie is still in tho Yu-
kon, now engaged in dredging. He is
one of the enthusiastic workers for the
exposition and will be present as will
many others of the first government.

BALLOONING.
It Is Safe and Simple Sport, but Not
Cheap One.

It Is Safe and Simple Sport, but Not
Cheap One.
The only peril in a balloon ascension
in such good weather as careful aero
nauts choose for a voyage is in alight-
ing. and In well ordered expedition
where all the passengers keep cool and
cling to the car, there is no danger at
all.
Even if the wind is blowing hard
the strong, elastic, woven willow bas-
ket takes up the danger part of the
shock. One Of these baskets ought to
yield up its passengers unhurt from a
landing in q wind blowing fifty miles
an hour.
Ballooning under moderately favor
able circumstances is safe and sim
pie sport. 1t is not, comparatively
speaking, cheap amusement. An as
cent, including the cost of gas, expense
Of pilot and transportation of passen-
gers and balloon home, costs in this
country from S35 to SIS a passenger.
1t is less in France. From Paris you
can make an ascension for about a
hundred francs.
The fare home is very variable ex-
pense. Nothing is more uncertain than
the spot where you will land. OF
course it is easy to descend whenever
you like. You may limit your flight to
a couple of hours.-Albert White worse
in Success Magazine.
