ALASKAN NOW owns
A street CORNER

Three lots on the southeast corner
of North First and A streets have
now a new owner having been sold
Monday by Alex. Miller to Henry
Cook, of Fairbanks, Alaska, for $685.
600. The lots are 25x150 feet and
lie at the corner. They have been
occupied for some time by the Wymsn
& Sheldon people as a storage room
for vehicles and farm implements. 1t
is the intention of Mr.. Cook, whc has
returned north, to come again to
North Yakima, within year, and ar
range for the Improvement of the
property. As Pat Mullins, who owns
the corner opposite on North First
street proposes to improve his prop
erty. and rs the Read laundry build
ing which is one of the structures
moved up from Yakima City a quar-
ter of century ago. has been con
demned and when vacated will give
place to modern structure, there il
every reason for believing that the
street intersection there will be as
modern a section as il to be found in
the city.

FORTY MILES OF bitches

The secretary of the interior has

project. Bids will be received until
200 p. m, April %, 1910. at the Office
OF the Project Engineer, United States

These laterals arc small bitches To-
Gated on contours, and of the total

1t is expected that these bitches vii!

pared at this time to make the con-
ce.sions which must be made IL the
tracks are extended. They favor a
street railway and the sooner they
get it the sooner they will be bene-
flied hut they have an idea that it
will be constructed anyhow. Present
indications are, therefore, that the
Summit View section will not get n
line at all.
No Response Given.
Recently the Herald, in an inter-
view with President Richards of the
road, pointed out that the street rail-
way company did not consider q Sum-
NIT View line in it's general plan OF
development OF a line which would
be. primarily. Il freight line. 1t was
willing. under certain conditions. to
construct line in that portion of
the community but OF do so must
have an early response from the peo-
pie as to whether they wanted it anG
certain concessions to help carry the
burden for the several years until the
line would become sustaining.
This response has not been given and
these conditions have not been met.
the reason being. as stated, that some
of the property owners are negligent.
What Future Holds.
There are abundant reasons for be-
lievng that this is IL case of hesitat-
ing and losing. lust what develop
ment will take place in the future,
that is in the immediate future, K is
hard to tell but there are indica-
tons that money is tightening up in
the east because OF industrial con-
ditions there, which reason alone is
sufficient to cut out such n proposition
as that discussed above. Another rea-
son is that development Of the pres
ent line will do away with the need
for a Summit View line as develop
ment will follow the tracks, as is
now abundantly evident.

some one has risen to remark that
his city has a garbage problem.

Of these things have suggested it
every now and again.
Also the city health department,

labored with it; garbage contractors

and garbage cole ctors have quit in

the need of some permanent and ef-
icacious solution.
About two months ago a firm styl-

license to collect the a;bage for
which they were to DE allowed to COL

because they asked an exclusive fran
chise and the city could not legally
give it. After two days service, the
city health department fired the City

and at the meeting Of the council next
following, their tentative license was
revoked and the franchise was con-

GILMORE sUYs CATTLE.

The following appeared in the
Pacific Dairy Review (San Francisco
of October 20:
President John W. Gilmore, of the
College of Hawaii, was a visitor at
the Review Office last week. AS we
have previously stated, Prof. Gilmore
is in California for the purpose OF
purchasing thoroughbred dairy cattle
for the Hawaiian institution and ad'
vised MS that he has succeeded in
getting what he wanted with the ex-
ception of some Jerseys, which he
expected to secure from some Califor-
MIA breeder before sailing for the is
lands, His purchases up to the time
of his visit included some Ayrshires
secured i'm Washington, HOlsteins
from the Stanford ranch at Vina, and
Guernseys from the herd of Chas. G,
Lathrop at Stanford University.

Thayer Checked On
Honolulu For S 80, 900

Another chapter of the doings of A.
Finlay lhayer IN the Philippines has
reached this city, and It is even more
racy than the last budget.
The new information has resulted in
a cable message being sent to Manila
THIS morning authorizing a lawyer
there to publish certain Credentials"
Of Thayer, which are being held by the
attorney, together with the statement
that they are rank forgeries.
This course was taken reluctantly
by the Honolulu gentleman concerned,
and local friends OF Mr.. Thayer will
regret that he CThayer) has made
such extreme measures appear neces-
sary; for, despite what has occurred
in Manila, Mr.. Thayer bore a reputa-
ton in Honolulu of being very ex-
cellent gentleman and perfectly honest
in every respect.
1t has now come to light that Thay-
er tor, at sny rate, someone signing
his name) has drawn on local people
and banks for sums aggregating $780,
600, although having no funds in the
hands of the parties concerned here.
The Bank of Hawaii and Bishop and
Company were the financial institu-
tons drawn upon, and A. V. Gear was
one of the private individuals. Two
checks were drawn on w. F. Dilling-
ham, Of the Hawaiian Dredging Com
pany, but, strange to say, perhaps,
they were the smallest of the lot, one
being for $500 and the other for less
amount. 1t is said that one of these
checks was drawn at Hongkong only
a short time ago, after Thayer had
left Manila.
In order to secure large funds at
Manila Thayer is aueged to have dis
played letters bearing the (forged)
signature of w. F. Dillingham;. Up
on these letters he secured large sums
from the Manila banks and from pro-
minent business men of Manila-in-
Guiding the lawyer above referred to-.
The lawyer, by the way, insisted up
on retaining copies of the fake Dill
ingham Credentials" and from that
source copies have been received here.
One OF these letters happns to be
dated at a time when Dillingham; was
on the Pacific ocean about half way
Detween here and San Francisco.
When Thayer left Manila a trustee
was appointed for his affairs, and his
interest in the Calamba estate was
to have been sold. From Manila he
went to Hongkong and there evidently
drew other checks Zone having turned
up here) Arrangements were being
made for having the fugitive extra
dited from Hongkong, when, it is al
legged, he skipped OUT of that city,
leaving his baggage behind. His
whereabouts were not known at last
accounts.
A strange part of the whole story is
the arrival of reliable information that
in securing an option on the big Ca.
lamba estate Thayer actually had a
mighty good thing in his hands. His
plans, also, were exceedingly promis-
ing and easily won the confidence of

A BUSINESS HOLIDAY.

This has been about as near COM
plete holiday in Honolulu's Wall street
and the mercantile community as bust
ness necessities would permit. All
of the wholesale stores and many of
the retail establishments have remain
ed closed, their office heads merely
coming in early in the day for the
purpose of getting out correspondence.
Other stores closed at noon, so that
the last half of the day is practically
upon a closed town.
OF course the saloons are closed for
the day. At noon all of the banks
closed-even the Yokohama Specie
bank following the suit of it's Ameri-
can friends.
