Board of Health Lays Partial
Restrictions on Traffic With
Valley Isle.
EPIDEMIC IN TWO DISTRICTS
Seven Deaths Have Occurred Out
of Eighty-Six Cases So
Far Found.
tFrom Thursdays Advortiser.)

Hereafter, for an indefinite length of
time, it win be impossible for any per.
son to get away from the island of
Maui without undergoing q stringent
examination by physician and receiv-
ing certificate stating him or her to
be free from all infection.
The island has been placed under
partial quarantine, the action being
taken yesterday by the board of health
upon comforting with Acting President
Pratt, who returned IN the morning
from a flying trip to the scene of the
epidemic,
Although but a comparatively few
hours were spent on the valley island
Doctor Pratt managed to get through
lot of work and when he left the
work of stamping out the diphtheria
epidemic, which prevails at present in
two districts, was running with increas-
ed accuracy and confidence.
Isolation Camp.
He held a conference with Clifford
Charlock, chief sanitary inspector now
on the spot, and heard his report on
the situation. Some difficulties were
smoothed over and increased precau.
tions were ordered taken. An isolation
camp is being prepared and concerted
action is now expected to stamp out
the disease within as short a time as
possible.
There have been so far eighty-six cases
on the island, seven of which have
resulted in death. OF these eighty are
in Makawao while six are in the War
lul5u district, the disease having just
entered the latter. Four in the latter
case are at Waikiki itself while two
are in Spreckelsville.
The center of infection is at Hama
kuapoko Camp, where the number of
cases has been unusually large. All
residents of this camp will be strin-
gently examined, all eases of infection
and contacts will be at once isolated
and the whole camp given the most
thorough fumigation. This, it is hoped,
will wipe out what is at present the
chief source of infection.
Guards Furnished.
All cases and contacts are being
isolated where found, the isolation camp
being located at Paia. The quarantine
organization is being perfected and
plantations have furnished men who
will act as guards, special badges hav-
ing been prepared by the board of
health for all employed IN the work
of stamping out the epidemic.
The action of the board yesterday
in imposing partial quarantine might
yet result IN an order for a complete
one, although at present it does not
seem likely Quarantine of some sort
was made necessary for the protection
of the other islands, the present plan
being adopted as imposing the least
possible hardship on Maui.
The order goes into effect at once
and Vice President James L. Mclean,
of the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company, who was present at the meet
ing yesterday, will issue necessary or
ders to the InterIsland vessels at once.

watching orient.

This concerted action by the war de-
partment, congress and the general staff,
backed by President Taft, toward per-
feeting means of defense against pos
slble invasion, particularly on the Pa
cific Coast, emphasizes the fact that the
eyes of the military authorities are
turned toward the Orient, scanning the
horizon for war clouds.
Among those here who are not bound
to secrecy by connection with the war
department, II is believed that there is
more reason than appears upon the sur
face for the sudden activities in the de-
partment. 1t is even limited that the
activities of the japanese government
in launching battleship after battleship
and ordering, under rush orders, a
26,OOO-ton armored cruiser in England,
has opened the eyes of the military au-
thorities to the unpreparedness of the
military forces Of this country to repel
an invasion.

War Department Makes
Startling Report to
House.
CANNON WILL NOT ACCEPT
New National Council
Of Defense Planned
in Bill.

WASHINGTON, December 15.-
sensation occurred yesterday when the
war department sent to the house of
representatives as secret document its
report showing that the country is un.
prepared for war and that it is in
adequately protected in case of invasion.
After several conferences the report
was returned to Secretary of War
Dickinson, the house refusing to re-
ceive it, Speaker Cannon ruling that it
could not receive secret report which
neeessitated its holding a secret SEES
sion, which is unprecedented during a
century.
1t is stated that the report points
out that the country is wholly unpre-
pared for war; that there is an made
quate number of men, of guns and of
munitions of war.
The recommendation in the report,
according to the best information, are
for a material increase in the compile
ment of the army for the reorganiza-
ton of the army ON a more practical
basis, and for the formation of Ma
tional Council of Defense headed by
the secretary Of war.

Necessity for Action.

Maj.'Gen Leonard Wood, chief of the
general staff of the army, discussed the
points made in the report before the
military committee of the house and
is reported to have gone into detail in
connection with the faults under the
present system of organization and as
to the remedies.
'Major-General Wood is stated to
have dwelt with particular emphasis
upon possible attack from the Orient
and advocated immediate action by the
government to guard against any pos
sible trouble from China and Japan.
Congressman James McLachlan, of
California, declared that an enemy from
the Orient could land 100000 troops on
the Pacific Coast within thirty days,
and he, too, accent1ated the need of
immediate action to safeguard the
western shores Of the country.
Following conference with Presi-
dent Taft and Secretary of War Dickin-
son Congressman Hobson introduced in
the house bill embodying the idea of
the administration for National Coun-
ell of Defense.

the news from the company's mill at
Millers, which gives the Information
that the average run of ore Tor the
past week has been of high milling

a carload Of higher grade ore is being
sent TO the smelter daily, and a small

ing sacked and held for separate ship

ORIGIN AND AIMS
OF MORMON PEOPLE

At the special tourists service given
In the Tabernacle In Salt Lake. yes
terday afternoon, an organ recital was
rendered by Professor j. j. McClel-
Ian, and Joseph F. Smith Jr. deliv-
cred an address on 1.-The Essential
Features of Mormonlsm." In his ad-
dress Mt. Smith said, in part:
I'VE are called Mormons because
We follow the Book OF Mormon,
which was compiled as a history of
people that inhabited North and
South America and who came to this
continent from Jerusalem during the
reign OF Hezekiah. The Lord led this
people to this continent and taught
them his laws and ordinances, the
same as the people Of Palestine were
taught. They followed his teachings
for two or three hundred years, and
then they fell into apostacy. They
were then cursed and turned black
When this. nation again accepted
the works of the Lord they were again
turned white. and remained In this
condition until they again turned
into apostasy, and they were again
turned black. There was also a peo-
pie who came TO this continent dur
ing the confusion of tongues In Eu-
rope. For while they accepted the
teachings of the Eord and were pros
porous. They then fell Into apostasy
and went to war among themselves
and were destroyed In this book the
land Of Zion Is the land OF peace and
plenty. No people, however can in
nabit this land and live In iniquity.
The same promise that was made to
the people OF old has been made to
the people OF today. AS long as they
heed the Lord they will possess the
land In safety, but as soon as they
disobey His commandments, when
they seek that which Is unclean they
shall be destroyed
Mormonism Is the pure gospel OF
the Lord. No man can enter the
kingdom of the Lord who does not
accept the teachings OF the Lord
Jesus Christ. The four cardinal
principles Of the Mormon faith arc:
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; re-
pentance for sins; baptism for the
remission Of sins and the laying on
OF hands for the gifts Of the Holy
Ghost. Our elders preach the gospel
to all of the nations of the earth
AS the Savior taught the gospel after
His death, so we claim that our elders
who go out into the world preach the
gospel to the man In the body After
death they go into the spirit world and
preach the gospel to the departed
spirits, BY this means we hope to
save the entire world. Joseph Smith,
the prophet, was designated by the
Lord to come into this world and
preach unto all civilized and unciy-
ilized men the true teachings Of the
Lord Jesus Christ. He died a mar
tyr to the cause of humanity. and for
his death he has received his re-
ward in the world to come"
