UNINJURED LOGAN
SAILS TOMORROW
Big Troopship Takes Back Her
Cargo From the MohicaH
Today.

Tomorrow morning at s clock the
United States Army transport Logan
will steam out of the harbor on its
way to the Philippines This is the
course of action which has been de-
eided upon. 1t was at first thought
that the transport would be gotten out
of the harbor this evening, but so much
coal has vet to be taken on board the
ship and so much freight has TO be re
loaded from the barge Mohican that
the authorities decided to hold the
tronpship over until the morning.
The Mehican will move alongside the
transport early this morning and start
returning the freight. The Logan was
moved to the Oceanic wharf yesterday
morning. Coal barges were brought
alongside and the labor of putting 1910
tons of coal into her bunkers was be-
gun. The Logan IS bow is still well out
of the water, but she viii steady down
when all the cargo and coal have heen
put in.
Almost all day yesterday the light
house tender Kukui, with Captain job
son in charge, played the part of a
hunter in the harbor. The Cambrian
dropped two big anchors and the T..
S. station tug Iroquois a part of one
during the pulling operations, and the
fine little Kukui was there with the
keen scent to get them again. Two of
the big fellows were located by means
of a diver yesterday, but they were
so deep in the mud that it was neces-
sary to drag with a small anchor to
connect with the lines attached to
them.
Logan Stood the Shock.
Not a bit of injury has been done
the troopship by reason of her running
on the reef, so far as has yet been
discovered OF course, the paint has
been seraped off to some extent, but no
material damage has been done. The
vessel was not leaking in the least yes
terday, but to make assurance doubly
sure divers viii again be sent down
this morning to examine her bottom.
3 Captain Sanders, the pilot who was
in charge at the time of the accident,
will make a report to Inspector Howe.
and probably also to Superintendent OF
Public Works Marston Campbell.

THE GLAMOR OF DISTANCE.

1t is often amusing to see how
thinking that they get better good
by going away from home. People
will go to the big cities, join in the
department store mob to the loss of
their time and temper, carry heavy
bundles about the streets and into
the trains, and return with articles
that could be had just as well at
home. Examined by the sober light
of second thought, they often prove
unsatisfactory, but bought at dis
lance they can't be returned, save
perhaps by prohibitive amount OF
time and trouble.
People do not always stop to think
that the merchants in their home
towns have made marvellous ad.
vances within a few years. They
are as keenly alive to the need oil
keeping up with the fashions as any.
one. They have regular clearance
sails to get rid of old goods, and il
is no more possible for them to carry
back number styles than it is for the
big city competitor. Therefore, VIII!
not patronize the home merchant
who will see to it that you get
satisfaction if the goods are not wha

gap. Bear in mind that it doesn't
require many subscriptions at the
present schedule to bridge a gap of
10000 or $4,000 votes. In all races
there is more or less uncertainty.
There are candidates of whom we
know little, and they may come in
strong at the finish. We expect to
POLL an avalanche of votes at the
closing hours of the contest.
This contest is similar to others.
The contest manager has watched
the closing of hundreds of like con-
tests, and these words of warning
have been passed out to make their
position sure. Don't be misled by
outside rumors or unfounded infor-
nation. The farsighted candidate
will accept this timely warning and
act upon it. Do not disclose any
secrets. A good general relies on
surprising the enemy. Nothing that
can be considered unjust to any can
didate will be tolerated. We have
heard vain regrets many, many
times. "Oh, if l had only tried a
little harder" Let there be no
regrets. Leave no stone unturned
that might be in your way to get
votes. 1t is better to win by large
majority than to lose by a few votes.
Remember, when the appointed hour
c. p. m, Dec. 1Sth) arrives, the
automobile contest comes to a close.
All subscriptions, with remittances
to count must be in the hands of
the contest manager before 9
o'clock Saturday night. Not one
single vote will be issued on money
paid one second after that time.
You may make out the names of
all subscribers, giving the correct adj
dress, stating whether new or old
subscribers, enclose them in a sealed
envelope with remittance to CORE
spond, and hand them in before
o'clock.
h. You may hand in the names of
your subscribers any time between
now and Saturday. By so doing it
will be of great advantage TO the
contest manager as it will then be
possible to give the ballot box to the
judges ten minutes after o'clock
Saturday evening.
On all subscriptions and money
turned into the ballot box at the
exact hour of 9 o'clock, ballots will
be issued after the appointed hour.
We hope to be able to announce
the winner SO minutes after the bal
lots have been issued.

Thank you for bracing me! This
is just what l needed. A minute ago
l thought l never could pull this
ship with it's heavy cargo into port;
but watch the lightning speed and
buoyancy with which l do it now"
The human will is good deal like
the sail of vessel. We all depend
on it TO propel us toward the goal
we seek, our port of ambition. When
you're tired or discouraged the sail
says iimp-you're becalmed-and
there's no getting ahead until fresh
breeze of encouragement springs up.
The contest manager, in the capacity
of weather man." in order to brace
contestants, has decided to leave the
present vote stand as it is.
Trim sails, everybody! Here's the
good news you needed. With a wind

Suppose your rival gained ten sub
scriptions before Saturday, what
would happen to your sail? Could
you make safe landing against
such a big vote? You need to think
this over seriously.

position in the final count by adding

by you from now to the close.
We speak of submitting the
list TO the judges "after correc-
tons have been made" You
must know that two days, and
no more, will be allowed for
this business of correcting the
list. No additions, revisions,
alterations, corrections of any
kind, can be made after Friday
night. Therefore, il you have
reason why you think your
total should be changed, let the
