KAMAA|NA DIED
THIS MORNING
cFrom wednesdays Advertiser,

tfTom wednesdays AuvertlserD
Robert Rycroft died at his residence
ON Wilder avenue early this morning,
of heart trouble. He leaves a widow,
three sons, Henry, Mark and Walter,
and two daughters, Sophia and Gladys.
Mr.. Rycroft was well.known ka-
maaina on the Islands. He was born
in Leeds, England, in 1S43, and came
to the United States when he was six
teen years old, to visit brother liv-
ing at Chautauqua. When the Civil
War broke out he enlisted in the Sec
ond U. S. Cavalry and served for six
teen months. After his discharge he
went west and landed in San Fran
cisco. Finding nothing to keep him
1 there, he took passage ON the bark
Comet to Honolulu. This vessel
brought to the Islands the first news
of Lincoln IS reelection.
| Once here, he decided to remain and
went to work for the Honolulu Iron
Works, shortly after going into the
plumbing business, to which trade he
had been apprenticed at home Later
On he started the old Fountain res
taurant and temperance saloon on Fort
street, and finally branched out by
starting an ice works under the tnen
new ammonia process.
Selling out his interests in Honolulu
he went to Brisbane, Australia, where
! he again started an ice works and was
nearly successful in having his own
i system introduced on the steamers for
the purpose of taking frozen mutton
to Europe. Failing in this he returned
to Honolulu in 1877 and went to Ha-
waii where he started in the ava ship
| ping business. He did well in this and
took up land, going later into the cat
| tie business.
He was one of the first to start cof-
| fee.growing and planted three hundred
acres in lower Puma, but this venture
was not great success and he sold
out his Puma holdings to sugar syndi-
cate. He had so much faith in the fu
/ ture of Puma as a sugar raising coun-
/ try that he took large amount of
stock in the new company and came
to Honolulu in 1899.
Here he started .in the soda business
in small way, but the business soon
developed and the Fountain Soda Works
soon became prosperous concern. Or
recent years his eldest son has had
charge of the soda business and Mr..
Rycroft contented himself with look
ing out for his various investments.
None of his children are married. Mrs.
Rycroft was Elizabeth Campbell, sister
of A. J. Campbell and was married to
Mr.. Rycroft in 1872, previous to his
visit to Australia.
The late Mr.. Rycroft's funeral will
take place today at CLOCK at the
family home on Wilder avenue.

". 0. SMITH ON THE
LOCAL OPTION PLAN

"There are many" said Hon. w. o.
Smith yesterday, "who are familiar
with the present law regulating the
sale of spirituous liquors and its oper-
alton who feel that it will be mis-
take to give to the voters of each pre-
cinct the power to decide by ballot, es-
pecially at general elections, whether
or not licenses shall be granted in their
precinct.
In the present law" continued Mr..
Smith, "there is provision (section
l2) that every applicant for license
shah file with his application an in
strument in writing containing the con
sent of a majority in number of the
holders of real estate situated within
one thousand feet from the proposed
premises, which signatures shall be ac-
knowledged before an acknowledging
officer. When the location of the pro-
posed place for selling liquor is within
half mile of any first or second class
postoflice the consent of majority of
the property holders within $50 feet
only is required. This provision is in
tended to apply to popuious towns.
"In addition to the foregoing pro
vision the law provides that if ma
jority of the registered voters of a pre-
cinct, in which an application has been
made for license, file protest against
the granting of the license, the appli
cation shall be refused.
"These two provisions present very
strong local option features. The first
eompels the applicant to obtain the
written consent of property owners
which places direct and recorded re
sponsibility upon each individual sign
ing; it is very different matter from
the citizen on his own motion person
ally protesting.
"But if majority of the voters o
a precinct are opposed to the granting
of licenses in their precinct, they hav'
the opportunity to protest and preyen
any license being granted.

Mr.. PINCHOT'S VIEWS ON
FORESTRY in THESE ISLANDS

sylvania the whole movement began
with the women; in Minnesota they
took the laboring oar in establishing
the Minnesota national forest. And the
growing interest in forest preservation
on the part of the Federation of
Women's Clubs, the National Mothers
Congress, and other great bodies of
women, is one of the most hopeful
things for all of us who are interested
in securing for the future, so far as
we can, some benefits from the forests
which we enjoy today.
You in Hawaii have n peculiar in
terest in this question. Nowhere are
forests and water supply more intimate
ly connected than in the Islands, and
very few communities have made such
progress as yours toward practical for
est preservation. There remains, of
, course, very large work to be done.
You are fortunate in having so good a
man as Mr.. Hosmer as your forester to
assist you in the work. More import
ant still is your interest in public ques-
tions, which led you TO send your repre-
sentative, SO admirably chosen, to the
meeting of the Rivers and Harbors
Congress and the Joint Conservation
Conference. / welcome the opportunity
for cooperation with you for the Forest
Service, and assure you that the Ser
vice viii always welcome the oppor-
tunity to do what it can to help along.
One of the things / want most is a
chance to visit the Islands.
Very sincerely yours,
CLIFFORD PINCHOT,
Forester.

FOUNDED IN HONOUR.

No doubt you have seen in the
papers such announcements as
this concerning some medicine or
other: elf, on trial, you write
that this medicine has done you
no good we will refund your
money" Now, we have never
had reason to speak in that way
concerning the remedy named in
this article. In a trade extern
ding throughout the world, no
body has ever complained that
our medicine has failed, or asked
for the return of his money. The
public never grumbles at hon
estly and skillfully made bread,
or at a medicine which really
and actually does what it was
made to do. The foundations of
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION

On leaving Washington, Mrs. A. F.
Knudsen received the following letter
from Hon. Clifford Pinchot, chairman of
the National Conservation Commission
and Chief of the Government Forest
Service:
United States Department of Agricul'
ture, Forest Service, Washington.
New York, December 26, 1908.
Ny dear Mrs. Knudsen.-You have
been kind enough to suggest that
might send through you to the women
of the Hawaiian Islands a word about
their share in the great movement for
forest protection which is now sweep
ing over the whole country. l do SO
with the keenest pleasure, because the
part of the women in this great move
ment has everywhere been not only an
important one for the present, but the
essential part when we come to con
slider the future. 1t is just as natural
for the women to occupy themselves
mainly with the condition of the natioI
! in the future, when the children of to
| day will have taken charge of the ma
tional affairs, as it is almost inevitable
that the men will give their prineipa
attention to the questions and decis
ions which we must make now. These
questions and decisions concern the fu
ture not less than the present, but aftel
all those who control the children con
troll the nation of the future.
1t has happened over and over agaiI
that the women have taken the leading
part in establishing forestry in various
parts of the United States. In Penn
