WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The sub
committee appointed by Representa-
tive j. Hampton Moore, president Of
the Atlantic Deep Waterways Assoc
iation, began the preparation of a bill
yesterday. It is probable that the bill
will provide for a survey of the entire
waterway from Boston to Beaufort,
N. G.
It is likely that the bill will call for
estimates on the cost of channels IA,
16, 20, 25 and 35 feet deep. Not only
will the cost of the entire project be
taken into consideration, but estimates
upon the various sections of the pro-
posed waterway will be asked for.
The subcommittee consists of Repre-
sentative Burton. of Delaware; Capron
of Rhode Island; Goulden, Of New

Small, of North Carolina.

How to Get Position and How to
Keep IT. is the title Of a small book
issued by a large publishing house and
sold TO the unemployed and Others for
90 cents.
That is cheap enough II the rules
laid down will work like patent
churn without putting a dollars worth
Of intelligence along with each sug-
gestion. Any man out Of employment
and starving would gladly give the
30 cents be didn't have for the book
IL he could stand off the restaurant
man until he had read IT.
Doubtless moving along the line Of
the simple rules win make a man
president Of a bank or manager Of a
moving picture show provided he can
understand all Of the big words on It's
pages,
However, there Is one unfailing rule
we win bet the author never mention
ed. and, that is to be born a million
alre. Then the render won't care
whether he keeps the position or not.

SMITH HAS A
DAMAGE. SUIT
HILO ATTORNEY COMPLAINS OF
A STEAMERS REFUSAL TO GIVE
HIM PASSAGE.

Carl S. Smith, the Hilo attorney, who
is now in this city with his family
will probably bring a heavy damage
suit against the Matson Navigation
Company in the near future. Some
time ago when he desired to bring his
family down in the Lurline he was
refused passage, though he rendered
the necessary funds to pay for his
tickets and his claim is that as a COM
mon carrier the steamship company
must accept passengers when there is
room for them. According to his be-
lief there has been an understanding
reached between the Matson Naviga-
ton Company and the Inter-Island
Steam Navigation Company by which
the former shall not interfere with the
latters passenger trade between the
islands.
Mr.. Smith states that he has ira
veled on the Matson boats before I'M
der varying circumstances, that is he
has both travelled on a pass and has
been able to come over from Hilo by
paying the fare of $3.50. Why he
should be allowed to do so at one time
and be refused the next is the ques-
ton. Where the damage suit will
be brought is another matter that 1s
of interest. 1t may be that Smith
will have to file his suit in the ad-
'miralty court, which would mean a
long delay and considerably more ex-
pense than if the matter could be talk
en- before the Territorial courts in CT
vii suit and settled quickly.

DR.. COFER'S

So far as Judge Humphreys and his
clients are concerned the fight against
DR.. COfer as president of the Board of
Health is at an end. according to a
statement made by the judge yester-
day. The fight was a close one and it
was realized that there was merit in
the contentious but with the decision
from the Department of the Interior,
the matter will be allowed to drop.
AS matters stand now DR.. Cofer is
in much better position than he was
before. When he accepted the posi-
ton at the hands of Governor Frear
he did so without salary, evidently be-
lieving that it would not be the pro-
per thing to accept pay both from the
Federal and Territorial governments.
