idea of returning to California able to
advise Californians on what steps to

diately attack and eradicate the pest

OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION
OF NEED OF A ROAD

On August 10 The Advertiser had a
story about the necessity of road to
Pearl Harbor to provide some way for
the large number of men and officers
who win be stationed there reaching
this city, and on the same day Rear
A.ln iral Cowles brought the matter to
ihe attention of Governor Frear in an
official letter. This letter was referred
TO the board of supervisors by Gov.
ernor Frear, and was read at the meet
ing last evening.
The naval commandant tells the chief
executive of the Territory of the large
amount of travel there will be from the
naval station at Pearl Harbor within
the next few months, and of the great
necessity for a proper road connecting
the station with Honolulu. Construc-
tion ON the building win begin next
month, according to Admiral Cowles,
and the officers quarters win be fin
ishel in short tine as will also the
quarters for the men.
The road at present through Homo
inm Plantation is far from being sat
isfactorv, let alone its being a private
road which can be closed at any time
the owners see fit.
When the communication was re-
ferred to the road committee Chairman
Dwight informed the board that the
city engineer had been authorized to
make a survey of the Pearl Harbor
road as soon as possible and to submit
estimates as to the amount of money
it would cost to build it.
"That road is necessity" said
Chairman Dwight, "and / think we
should do all in our power to do what
the navy department wants Of u.s.

DRUGGISTS
FEELING ANXIOUS

The members of the Japanese Whole
sale Druggist Association called on
Food Commiss oner Blanchard yester-
day in full force, all very much work
ed up over Blanchard IS activities in
Hilo, which resulted in the commits
sioner shutting down on the sale of
Japanese drugs in the small stores.
They were anxious to find out the
exact law on the matter and Blancha I'd
showed 1t to them accordingly, point
ing olt fhe necessity of those stores
having pharmacist and poison and drag
licenses.
The association claimed that those
drugs sold by them to Hilo and else.
where, intending Honolulu, which con.
tanned strychnIne or morphine were
plainly marked with full directions how
to use them and they thought this
should exempt them from the law. In
other words, stryehnine which was
marked as such was not poison and no
license should be required to sell It,
Blanchard convinced them otherwise,
and states that he expects cooperation
from them. The Japanese druggists
have in the past assisted him cordially
and once voluntarily cleaned their
stores of goods the sale of which was
not permitted by the federal pure drag
laws.

The presence of the Mediterranean
fruit fly on the Garden Island has been
demonstrated beyond further doubt
and the people of Kauai may now start
in picking up their fallen fruit for the
garbage piles and conducting a lady
like campaign against the pest, unless
they want to do, as California is pre-
pairing to do should the fly appear
there, eradicate it.
Horticulturist Higgins of the fed
eral experiment station notified The
Advertiser last night that maggots
from the fruit he had brought from
the Gay and Robinson places on Kauai
had Matched out into Mediterranean
flies. No possibility of mistake re-
mains.

S. T. Starrett of Los Angeles will
arrive here about October i to take the
position of territorial marketing super'
intendent, the Governor receiving a
cable from him yesterday stating he
will accept the post An attempt was
made to get someone from here who
could acceptably fill the office but it
did not succeed
Governor Frear considers the Terri
tory is fortunate in being able to get
Mr.. Starrett who is very much inter
i ested in the subjects of territorial
market and small farming in the
Islands. The Governor said:
"From all we can learn Mr.. Starrett
is one of the best persons in California
for such position, having been en-
gagged in that work for many years and
having become familiar with all its
branches, both in the producing and
marketing ends, and who has proved
successful in such way as to win the
I confidence of those with whom he has
dealt. -
! 1t is not known whether Mr.. Starrett
will take the office permanently. He
said when he was here that he would
take it for six months. The Governor
explained, yesterday, however, that
there was very little said on this score
at the time and then they expected to
get local man.
"Whether he viii wish to remain
longer than six months, or whether by
that time someone else here may be
able to carry on the work will remair
to be seen. That is too far ahead Il
decide now, for us at least" concluded

CITY OF MEXICO, August 3d.
The platform adopted yesterday by the
Progressive party, in convention for
organization and the nomination OF
candidate for the presidency, promises
not only great reforms for Mexico's
internal government, but goes on rec
ord as favoring a plan of Importance
to North, Central and South Americas.
The three platform planks of great
est Importance to Mexico in the imme-
diate future deal with taxation, the
election laws and the return of the
Yaqui Indians from their enforced

Sonora. The laws regarding TAXATION
are to be completely revised and the
assessment and collection of taxes are
to be equalized, the lower classes to
escape oppressive burdens and the
great estates to be made to pay their
share. The main change promised in
the election laws is an amendment
making presidential incumbent ineli-
gible for reelection.

The most radical plank in the plat
form is one dealing with the Central
American situation, advocating union
of all the Central American republics
with Mexico as confederation.

Bill win Be Fought.

The head of the territorial imnngra-
tion bureau believes that there VIII he
fight on the bill a congress and that
il may be amended. He fears that OBJ
lection will be raised to excluding Ha
wall from so many of the general pro.
visions of the bill, on the constitutional
point that congress has no power to ex.
clude any one part of the Us on from
the general provisions of such bill
or to place impediments in the way of
free trave! ilom any one part Of the
Union to any other part.
~ believe that Ray Stannard Baker
is going to take that quest On ap in the
American Magazine, he said. He
discussed that point while he was here
and he has since referred to it in cor
respondence.
On this point it m ght be suggested
that if the territorial status of Hawaii
interferes with general legislation, it
might be found cas- er to change Ha-
waii' s status than to change the legis-
lation found agreeable to the mainland.
This was suggested to DR.. Clark last
night.

whether that would be found pleas ng

Governors Opinion.
/ Being very busy in getting olt his
annual report to the secretary of the
interior, Governor Frear stated yester-
day that he has not been able to do
any more than hurriedly run over the
Dillingham; bill. He has received a
special copy, showing the changes in
the immigration act-what has been
cut out anl the additions.
''I do not seen anything on the sub
ject of Japanese naturalization, he
remarked as he scanned the pages
"ani 1 would Judge, from what the
papers state, that the present law as to
who may become natural zed will be
maintained. -
s'Can the immigration of orientals
to Hawaii be resumed under the billl

The Governor answered in the mega
tive and then qloted the clause il the
act dealing with excluded persons
which includes those who are not eligi
BILE to become citizens of the United
States by naturalization.
1t may he mentioned, however, that

information received at Mare Island
ON August 90 was positive that the en-
tire Asiatic fleet win be called to Ha-
waii to take part in the big "war
game'' for which part of the Pacific
fleet has already received definite or
ders. According to the information
from Mare Island, the commander-in-
chief of the Asiatic feet was to re-
eeive instructions from Washington
that the Islands are threatened and to
proceed under forced draft to the scene
of operations. His detachment consists
of the Albany, New Orleans, Whining
Gon and Helena, and even the old coast
defense monitors Monterey and No
nadnoek were to be dragged across
the Pacific to test their efficiency This
would strip the Asiatic waters Of big
American warships, but the gunboats,
II was thought, would be sufficient to
protect the Philippines and Guam.
This news was of date of August 90,
four days after the first order was is
sned from Washington detaching the
California, South Dakota, West Vir-
ginia and Colorado from Mare Island
for the maneuvers in Hawaiian waters.
The rumor was also that the Cincin-
natl and Raleigh were to be used as
scout cruisers and further that the
submarines Pike and Grampus, recent
ly stationed at San Diego, were to be
sent here.
