HAWAII
IN JERSEY

A most interesting and rather i'm
portant matter is to be sprung at the
next meeting of the Promotion Com
mittee in the way of a Hawaiian adj
vertising scheme in the east which
will not only pay for itself, but may
net considerable profit to those han
ding the matter.
The idea is to establish a headquar-
ters on the famous board walk at At
lantic City, New Jersey, where Ha-
waiian products may be on exhibition
and sold, as is done by the Los Ange-
les Chamber of Commerce.
The Los Angeles Chamber main
tain a considerable place on the his
toric board walk and in the spacious
rooms are to be seen the products of
the City of the Angels and environs.
Orange juice is sold in the form of
refreshing drink and not only are
visitors treated to museum exhibit
ton, but they are afforded opportun-
tiles for enjoying the fruits of Cali
fornia and learning all about its adj
vantages.
Hawaii could, thinks w. H. Hoogs
and others interested, the original
idea having been advanced by Secre-
tary H. P. Wood of the Promotion
Committee a year or so ago, to very
great advantage maintain an attrac-
tive establishment in a conspicuous
place on the Atlantic City board walk
where pineapples, fresh, canned and
in the form of syrup and cooling
drinks could be sold and served; and
where, for example, taro could be re-
ceived and made into poi for the con-
version of many fasteners to its be.
neficial use.
Photographs of these islands and al
manner of promotion literature would
be available and the place would b.
made to pay expenses on what wa
sold in the way of curios, postals, pho
tos, pictures, koa wood canes and 9th
er handy articles, pineapples in al
conditions, sea-shells, coffee, Hawaii
an souvenir jewelry, Hawaiian musi
and anything else Hawaiian conve
nlent to sell. A Hawaiian quinte
might at the height of the season b.
stationed there. Public photograph
with Hawaiian records and an occa
sional moving-picture exhibition o
Hawaiian scenes would add to the in
terest, advertisement and revenue.
The matter is being seriously con
sidered and favorable action is ex
pected.

ANORADE
HESITATES

While no nomination has as yet been
received by the Board of Supervisors
in regard to Police Court Chinese In
terpreter, the indications are after
general reference to parties interested
and concerned, that Willie Crawford is
the man likely to get the position-it
recommended.
The difficulty appears to be back
wardness in recommending him for the
appointment, not that those who have
to recommend him are unwilling TO
do so, but for the reason that they
anticipate opposition.
One name suggested to the powers was
that of Hang Chew, but that name was
promptly disapproved in the legal
branch of the City and County for the
reason that Chew's Interpretation was
successfully criticised on an important
occasion.
Crawford is, from what could be
gathered this morning around the City
and County headquarters, the most
capable man available and he is favor
ed by Judge Andrade and by the Coun-
ty Attorney; that is, he is favored, but
has not yet been recommended by
Andrade, tho he may yet be.

FEDERATION WILL STAND BY GOMPERS Case May Go To United States
 Supreme Court
THE REPORT IS APPLAUDED
Today's Session of American Feder- ation of Labor at Toronto Will Be Taken Up With Reading
 of Various Reports.

Toronto November S.-That the Ameri- can Federation of Labor intends to stand by President Samuel Gompers, Vice Pres ident John Mitchell and Frank Morrison in their fight to evade the jail sentences imposed in the United States for con- tempt of court was indicated today by the attitude of the delegates in attend ance on the twenty-ninth annual conven- ton of that body. It is apparent that the committee on the presidents report will recommend that the cases be car ried to the supreme court of the United States.
 The delegates vigorously applauded points in Mir Gompers' report, summar- izing the Buck Stove and Range company injunction case and the contempt pro- ceedings which followed.
 Reports of Secretary Frank Morrison and Treasurer John B. Lennon showed that organized labor has made such suo- stantial gains In the past year and that the funds of the federation are at nigh tide with balance of $165,S0S in the treasury.
 The convention's attitude toward the factional strife among the members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers was shown today when the ere dentials committee reported in favor or the faction headed by F. P. McNulty and declined to seat James J. Read of the Erie. Pa, Central Labor Union, presi- dent of the insurgents, and other dele gates from organizations in Ohio. Iowa, Alabama and Michigan whose charters have been revoked by the federation.
 The greater part Of tomorroWs 5 ses- sion will probably be devoted to the re- port of the executive council and the various committee appointments will be read.
 President Gompers ruled that any or ganization which does not hold a char ter from the American Federation or Labor Is not entitled to representation in the convention. He stated that ap- peals had already been taken against the action of the executive council in the matter of revocation of these charters and that the executive council would recommend in it's report that the mat ter be referred to committee 10 near the appeals.
 James J. Reid, representing the Cen tral Labor Union of Erie, Pa, was re fused seat In the convention on the ground that he was a member of the se- cedinR faction of the electrical workers and therefore could not be recognized nnder the laws of the federation.
 President Gompers ruled that the ere dentials of Edward McEachern. dele gate from the Ohio State Federation Of Labor, could not be considered at this time as his organization has not been in ariliation the required period of one month. That period will expire Novem- her IS. when it is expected the matter | will again be taken up

BYRNE MAY HEAD
 THE ENGINEERS
SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION MEETS NEXT IN CHARLOTTE-LOCAL CIVIL ENGINEERS ARE PLAN MING BANQUET.

With Capt. P. Byrne as candidate and with assurances of the support of the Atlanta, Charlotte and other delegations the Birmingham section of the Engineer ing association of the south is out for the presidency of the general association That the local section of engineers will succeed in placing Captain Byrne at the head of the association is practically a certainty, inasmuch as quite a number of delegations have signified their willing ness to support the Birmingham candi- date.
 It is also stated that it is quite probable that Birmingham will secure the 1911 con- vention of the southern civil engineers. inasmuch as assurances along this line are not lacking. The Engineering asso- citation of the south is the organization of civil engineers and is a representative body of men, and if local delegates suc- ceed in bringing the general convention to Birmingham as they expect, it will be one of the big affairs of 1911.
 Captain Byrne is the father of the Bir- mingham secuon of engineers and is a director of the association. Other Bir- mingham men hold prominent offices in the association
 The local section is at present planning its annual banquet which will take place on Thursday, December g. At that time it Is probable that the section officers for the ensuing year will be elected. The local organization will entertain quite large number of visitors on this occasion and o1r<x. here from other southern cities.
 The Birmingham section, although the youngest in the association, is admittedly one of the best and strongest. and the local organization expects to make very favorable showing at the next general convention. to bs held in Charlotte.

GOVERNMENT AID |, ID PUBLIC ROADS Is Asked By The Farmers Nat
 ional Congress MANY OTHER REFORMS Farmers Also Ask for Reduction in Mileage Allowance of Members
 of Congress from Ten to
 Five Gents.
MANY OTHER REFORMS

Raleigh, \. C.. November S.A reduce ton in the mileage allowance of members of Congress from 10 to cents mile is sought in resolutions adopted by the Farmers National congress here today.
 Legislation to establish four national roads from the Atlantic to the Pacific, the strengthening of the "oleo'' law, law prohibiting railroads from charging a full trip mileage rate on excess of the rates of the states through which the trip extends, the enactment of postal bank law, increasing the franking privilege to state agricultural schools and for the extending of publication were included in the resolutions.
 The congress also placed itself on rec ord in favor of the enactment of a law modernizing parcels post system urged Congress to appropriate money for dena- tured alcohol distilleries at selected agri- cultural experiment stations, and favor ed government aid to public roads.
 Representative Small of this state, in addressing the congress, told how the agricultural interests of the south would develop through the establishment of in- land waterways.
 That the discontent of women in farm homes is due to a lack of modern im- provements, to colorless monotony at- tending isolation, and to a lack of inde> pendent earning power, is the opinion expressed by Mrs. Alice E. Whitaker in a paper read before the congress. l'he condition of women would be vastly im- proved, Mrs. Whitaker declared, if home industries could be introduced on the farm, to make use of its products and to furnish an income from congenial em- ployment. She instanced many sections in which attempts were being made to establish such home industries and said they were successful in making women more contented.
 The resolutions adopted at the con gress were as follows:
 Favoring a national pure seed law; asking the government to demand a req sonable rate of interest on it's national bank deposits; demanding an accounting for all public funds expended in bounties, subventons or subsidies; requesting the national government to take Guilford bat tie ground under it's care; eecting Sec retary of Agriculture Wilson life mem- Der because of services to agriculture: asking a committee of the farmers con gress to investigate the matter of equal ity of taxation; denouncing the ship subsidy bill; favoring storage system of cotton so as to maintain prices on @ profitable basis; favoring the cooper ation of the federal and state govern ments in the reclamation of swamp lands; opposing standing armies and favoring arbitration.
