TERRITORY INVESTIGATING THE
WATER FOR THE BIC TUNNEL

The Territory has taken steps TO
get some first hand facts concerning
the water supply of Waiahole valley,
and surrounding lands, which the
Oahu Sugar Company seeks to bring
to this side of the island through
great tunnel through the Koolau
mountains.
On Saturday Chief Clerk ]. D.
Tucker of the land department;
Arthur Smith of the attorney gener-
ais department, and w. f. Martin,
engineer in charge of the U. S. hydro
graphic survey office, started out 10
explore the field in question. Their
efforts will probably be directed 20
determining as nearly as possible the
accuracy of previous reports concern
ing the amount of water available and
also the amount of power which may
be developed.
As reported in the Star Friday
according to investigations made
twelve years ago by w. Z, Rowell, at
that time superintendent of public
works, It was determined by him that
the falls of Waiahole would save the
city $3.50 per month in fuel bills,
were the waters properly harnessed
and the energy brought to this city.
nasmuch as later reports concerning
the supply of water indicate that the

grasses and a few cocoanut trees.
What stores were saved from the
wreck soon became exhausted, and in
the six weeks the castaways spent
upon the barren islet, they suffered
tortures of mind and body. Captain
baltimore organized hunting" par
ties and each day they went out 20
gather food. Some groveled for land
crabs, others scraped the salt off the
rocks, while others chased slippery
cells or climbed cocoanut trees. The for
age was all put into a big kettle and
cooked. There was a lot of grass on
the atoll but Captain baltimore was
afraid it might be poisonous. There
fore, before any of the party partook
of the delicacy it was fed to a dog
which had been saved from the
wreck. The animal survived so grass
was added to the mulligan of crabs,
cells and cocoanuts.
Start to Seek Assistance.
THE days heightened into weeks,
and the lookouts returning nightly
after lighting beacon fires, brought
the same discouraging news. There
was no sign of a SAIL or a smoke
streak, on the great stretch of tropl
cal water. Finally, Captain baltimore
decided that the last chance must be
taken, if they were to be rescued. One
day the party gathered sadly on the
beach to bid farewell to the mate and
four seamen, who were starting out
in an open boat to find succor. They
shaped a course for Samoa, 1890 miles
away. Nineteen days later, a schoon.
er, cruising off the coast of Upolu,
sighted an open boat with a limp sail
drifting with the current. AS the
schooner approached the boat those
on board saw the bodies of five men
stretched in the bottom. They were
not dead, however, for upon seeing the
schooner, one of the figures arose and
uttered a wild cry, and the others
leaped up, waving bony arms. The
men were quickly taken on board, and

Rowell estimate of the flow of water
was less than half of what is really
available, it would seem that the
value of the power to be developed
must be considerably greater. The
point in this matter is that if the
water is diverted through the tunnel
as proposed, it will be taken near its
source and the value of the power
will be lost.
The Oahu Sugar Company, it IS UNI
derstood, has an option until the 9Th
of October from Link McCandless, by
which it may purchase all the Waia-
hole waters as well as other waters,
for a high figure, said to be 100000.
McCandless claims his rights to the
water from the fact that he owns the
rice and taro lands below in the Waia.
hole valley, which have rights to some
of the water from the Waiahole
stream. The company assumes to be
dealing only with McCandless for it's
water, and asks from the Territory
only the right of way over and through
the government land. The fact that
all of the Waiahole waters originate
in government lands OPENS the nat
ural question of what rights the Terri
tory has to the waters, or if it can
protect itself in the matter Of the
power available.

Albert Edwards, in Outlook: AS is
the case in most great discoveries,
there are several claimants to the
honor of having propounded the mos
quito theory. Our doctors give the
credit to DR.. Ronald Ross, a Scotch
man in the Indian Civil Service. Thir-
teen or fourteen years ago he carried
on his very valuable experiments.
However, some Italians were close on
his heels. And once the theory was
published, investigators sprang up on

all sides who claimed TO have been
working on the idea these many years.
Reduced to it's simplest terms, this
theory is that certain diseases are
transmitted by, and only by, the bite
of mosquitoes. Ross worked this out
for malaria, demonstrating it first on
birds, then on man. This fever is
caused by the presence of bacteria in
the blood. These minute organisms

WASHINGTON, August 2S.-In q
hot reply to Senator Bailey Of Texas,
Senator Hepburn of Idaho placed him
Iself on record concerning the doc
trines to which Taft recently referred
as new tangled" fads of legislation.
Hepburn declared himself unqualified
ly opposed to the recall, the referen-
DUN, the initiative and the direct pri-
mary, and said he didn't care whether
his constituents approved his views
or not. He opposed the Arizona state
hood constitution because it contains
these new ideas, saying in part:
81 understood the Senator from
Texas mir. Baileyl to suggest that no
Senator had stood in his responsible
capacity in this body and stated that
he was opposed to the initiative and
the referendum and the recall. If
have overlooked that l am surprised

it now. l am unqualifedly opposed to

fiedly opposed to the recall under any

medium of impeachment under the
laws that govern trials for impeach-
ment. have been always opposed to

MAY HAVE TO
MOVE DEPOT AND
BIG elevator

Owing to the miscalculation of some
body, the Northern Pacific is confront
ed with the problem of moving big
substantial depot several miles and
the Occident Elevator Company will
have the same thing to do with big
elevator. Both are located at what
was once fondly supposed would be
the town of Schmidt, ten miles south
of Mandan.
Contrary to expectations the town OF
Schmidt did not materialize to any
greater extent than the two mentioned
buildings. The depot is frame build.
ing but of sufficient size to accommo-
date the business of town Of sew
eral hundred people, and also furnish
a home for the station agent. The
building has never been furnished,
however. Only very small part OF
the elevator machinery has been in
stalled.
Therea re two rumOrs concerning
tn disposition to be made of the ele-
vator. One says both will be moved
to Nineteen, village Of two or three
stores a few miles down the track.
The other report says the town OF
Gwyther will get the benefit of the
hegira when it takes place.
None of the land in the immediate
vicinity of Schmidt has been broken
up, although most Of it has been
homesteaued, and there is nothing in
sight to warrant the hope that there
ever will be a town at Schmidt
A lot Of good grazing is going to
waste in that vicinity, the growth of
grass being luxurient, but with a
lately acquired respect Of the home
steader, the cattlemen are keeping
their herds off the claims.

In the recent contest on the bean
jar given by the Lenhart Drug com.
pany in which the winner was given
a scholarship in the International Cor

the first prize was secured by K. H.
