Makes Plain Statement Before the Chamber
of Commerce and Invites Criticism
of the Members

Clearly, concisely and without the
slightest reference to the fact that his
actions had been more or less criti-
eized during his absence in Washing.
Aon, Governor Frear outlined portion
of the work he had done at the Cap.

z'ents to the Organic Act, at a special
meeting of the Chamber of Commerce

\ crowded one, large number of the
representative business men of the
city, attending and paying careful at
tention to the Governors remarks.
After the Governors speech, which
lasted upwards of an hour, request

special meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce, to which we have invited
those who would like to hear from
Governor Frear in regard to the
amendments to the Organic Act. This
Chamber has been asked by our Dele
gate, Kuhio, to send resolutions-to
send the consensus of our opinion rel
alive to these amendments. The
amendments have been published in

Governor Walter F. Frear: Mr.
President and Gentlemen, L wish frs
TO express my appreciation of the in
terest you have taken in this matter
and of affording me this opportunity
TO say few words on the subject. The
bill, as you know, is one to amend 6
number of sections of the Organic Act
and repeal one section. Its principa
feature is that relating to the lane
laws, but it was thought best to in
eiude in the bill practically all Of
the amendments which seemed to be OF
special Importance and which the ex
perience of some years past seem t,
call for, so as to avoid as far as posi-
BILE having to apply again to Congress
for amendments; at least, for som
time to come. As you know, the Or

Territorial Bonds.

Again, the subject of Territorial
bonds is covered by the Organic Act

"these other laws relating to Terri

special reference to other Territories
apply also in Hawaii" We can't sell

Section amends section so of the
Organic Act in two respects. In the
first place, it provides that Justices of
the Supreme Court aud judges of the
merely until the expiration of their
terms of four years, but until their
successors are appointed and qualified.
You see at present an instance in
which that amendment is necessary.

before the recess of Congress, but 50

NO High SnerlH.
Section 6 of the act repeats section
10 of the Organic Act. That is the
section which provides that there shall
be high sheriff. The object of this
amendment is not necessarily to abol-
ish the Office of high sheriff, for that
is created by Territorial laws, but it
leaves it in the power OF the Legis-
lature to abolish that Office, if it is
found desirable, for the simplifcation
of the machinery of government and
for economy. Now that we have coun'
ty sheriifs, it may be found that we
do not need a high sheriff. 1t may be
sufficient to have simply prison war
den, that is what the high sheriff il
now largely. 1t simply gives the Ter
ritory the power to abolish that Office
if it so desires.

Letters From
the People

Editor Advertiser:-In the postoffiee
statistics set forth in your editorial of
| Saturday last, on the "Growth of the
United States" an error appears to
have crept in as to the number of let
tiers and postcards sent through the
postal system of the United Kingdom
of Great Britain and Ireland. The
Postmaster Generals ffty-fourth annual
| report, 1908, shows that in the said
United Kingdom 1929, 100000 letters
and postcards were delivered and not
3,359,000,000 as given in the Adver-
tiser. Added to these large numbers
of letters and postcards were 940,000,-
600 halfpenny packets, 199, 100000
newspapers and 109,470,000 parcels.
Grand total of deliveries for the year
reported 4,971, 963,29s! The Times,
commenting on the report, says the
number of letters sent has grown by
more than one-ffth the last decade and
now stands at the high figure of 65 per
capita. No other nation conducts so
large a correspondence in proportion to
its population.
Delivery of letters and postcards per
capita, United Kingdom of Great Brit
ain and Ireland, S4.5; same, United
. States, 70.3. kilograms, Great Britain,
1907, S9,493,0 900, per capita, 30; same,
United States, 10.
Everywhere the postoffice plays a
more and more prominent part in the
life of the nation (Great Britain). Cor
respondenee of all kinds grows-post
offices, telegraph offices, telephone ex-
changes, letter boxes, multiply. The
amount of money transmitted by post
is larger every year, the postoffice saw.

It was the only way to do. It's a hard

you'd have to know in the course Of

right of that I've not decided to wait
and see about. Now don't look fright
ehed, my dear; nobody's dead-it's
only that I'm paralyzed!
"There, what do you think Of that?
Yes, it's true for q fact. My legs! /
had some premonitory symptoms yes
terday going up that cursed old tower,
and had some very advanced ones

curious thing is that don't feel any
particular inclination ever to walk
