some hard pokes.

The movement reported from Pitts

WILL ADD TWO
STARS To FLAG
New Mexico and Arizona Will Be-
come States in the Summer
of 1911.

WASHINGTON, January 19.-No new
stars will be added to the American
flag before the summer of 1911, ac-
cording to the plan under consideration
in the senate committee on territories.
The program is said to have the in
dorsement of President Taft. It pro-
vides for the reporting of an entirely
new bill for the admission of New Mex
leo and Arizona as States.
The Hamilton bill which was passed
by the house is declared to be obiec-
tionable to the senate committee on
two grounds. First, it does not pro-
vide for sufficient lapse of time be-
tween the proposed territorial cleo
tions and the adoption of constitutions
and the election of State officers and
members of the senate and house of
representatives. The other objection
has to do with the protection of public
interests in relation to existing and
proposed land grants.
Under the terms of the Hamilton bill,
elections of officials of the new States
and representatives in congress could
be held almost Immediately after STATE
constitutions were adopted and approx
ed by the President. The new bill will
authorize New Mexico and Arizona to
hold elections for the adoption of con-
situations, but no election for State of
ficers and members of congress could
be held until after the constitutions had
been approved by the President and
congress.
The effect of this provision would be
to permit the Territories to hold con-
stitutional conventions and elections for
the adoption of the constitution during
he present year, but the constitution
could not be ratified until congress met
next December. After ratification the
State elections could be held.
Under the terms of the proposed sem
ate bill the two Territories could not
possibly be admitted before the summer
of 1911 The Republican members of
the senate committee headed by Sena-
tor Beveridge have conferred with
President Taft and it is understood
they are unanimous in favor of this
program.

CAPTAIN JOHN ROSS FIGHTS
AND LOSES LAST BATTLE

Kingdom and his name figures in a
great many episodes connected with the
history of the Islands. In 1895 he was
among the rcvolutionists who were put
in Jail for their supposed designs
against the government. During the
time that they were incarcerated they
heard that Emmeluth and Others of the
government were coming down with
expressed intention of shooting them.
Ross went TO the jailer and promised
that none of their number would at
tempt to escape il he gave them some.
thing to defend themselves with. The
jailer consented and placed a double
guard around the Jail.
Up to within few months of his
death he had been living at his home
on Leah Avenue, in Kapiolani Park
but later went to stay at the home of
Col. Sam Parker. He was Parker IS
constant companion and the great
friendship that has existed between the
two men has been one of the most
prominent features of his later life. Col.
onel Parker is now in Washington and
the news of the death of his friend

ANDREWS FOR
PARTY ORGANIZER
Deputy Attorney General May
Give Up Law for Politics for
Time Being.

In all probability Lorrin Andrews,
just retiring as deputy attorney general,
will become territorial organizer of the
Republican party and campaign man.
ager for the city of Honolulu as soon
ms he steps out of the capitol. He has
not as yet been formally offered the
position, but he has been decided upon
by the central executive committee of
the party and will be asked to take
charge if the replies received from the
various chairman of the county commit
tees on the other Islands show that the
move will be popular.
The question of appointing a perma-
nent assistant secretary for the central
committee has been under discussion for
some time and the position was tacitly
offered to c., r. auckland, editor of the
Hawaii Herald. 1t was practically set
tied, in fact, that auckland was to have
the position. Then other aspirants APP
peared on the horizon, the matter finally
simmering down to a question as to
whether it would not be best to have
someone chosen to manage the whole
thV EthViui PoiiNy idiu
down by the committee, someone in a
position to devote his entire time to
the matters of organization and with
the political experience necessary for
the work.
A quiet canvass was made and the
name of Andrews was mentioned so
frequently that the committee here has
decided that if he is willing to accept
the post it will be given him. Before
doing anything definite, however, it has
been thought best to consult the party
leaders of the other islands.
In the event of Andrews becoming
organizer and campaign manager, it
will still be necessary to secure the
services of a permanent assistant secre-
tary and it is not improbable that both
Andrews and auckland will be engaged.

KOREAN ANNEXATION
NOT NOW, BUT SOON

TOXIC, January 15.-The possible
annexation of Korea to Japan con-
tinues to excite wide interest and dis
cussion. 1t may be stated lpon the
most reliable authority, however, that
the government of Japan has no imme-
date intention of taking steps looking
to the annexation of Korea.
That annexation is very probable at
some time in the not far distant future
is certain, but the policy of the Jap
anese government, it is said, is the
Resident General of Korea, which
means that if the Koreans lend them
selves to the Japanese protectorate in
such manner as to enable Japan to de-
velop the resources of Korea and make
of Korea valuable ally actual annexa.

The leading newspapers of Toxic are
divided on the question.
The decision of the Japanese govern.
ment to open Port Arthur as free
commercial port of entry has been un.
der consideration for considerable
time, and while no official announce.
ment has been made upon the subject
it is learned from reliable sources, that
the plan will be contaminated in very
short time. The decision is an import
ant one, but comes as surprise to O
very large number of people. 1t means
however, the eclipse of Port Arthur

trance into an important position al
