objection to DR.. Cooks story was the
speed with which he said he Travelled.
He went from Cape Hubbard to the

Ing to the chronology of Pearys trip,
he made the trip from Cape Column

CREDIBLE said DR.. Cook. They could
easily be made if Peary found the
route smooth. On his return he must
have averaged more than 80 miles per
day. 1t is probable that several days
had to be deducted because of en-
countering open water. 1t is not my

Peary's trip, regardless Of what he

until the scientists investigate and

that you were neither doctor nor q

you could never afterward entertain
the same feeling toward your parents,

you up the carpeted ladder that served
for the fourth flight and show you the

purposes of looking over the great
work that lies ahead. He brought no

what is here and figure on what new
apparatus will have to be brought over
Mr., Kinds Is now stopping at the Mo

HAWAII As A COLONY.

The thought that the Territory of
Hawaii would loom up in a Colonial
department whereas 1t Is now at the
beck and call of the Interior Depart
ment can hardly be viewed with sur
prise. coming from the supporters
of government by commission
nor with alarm.
The Colonial scheme naturally ap-
peals to persons in the Territory
who for selfish reason or a natural
tendency to monarchial ideals of
government, believe in the mainte-
nance of the government of Hawaii
as IA sort of Vice Regalty-provided
they name their puppet as Viceroy.
The Vice Royalty prevails somewhat
today, and 1t would be more so under
the Colonial scheme. Then, too, it
Is viewed with favor by certain of
our citizens who are confident that
IL this Territory could only gain a
Colonial position, 1t would be posi-
BILE to secure immigration exceptions
that would enable them to run in
enough labOrers from some section
of the Orient to prevent the Ameri-
canizing plans for Hawaii from do
ing any harm"
This, We are satisfied, is farthest
from the thought of President Taft,
should he plan to include this Terri
tory in colonial scheme. But that
is the basis of the support his pro-
