sands of acres Of grazing land made
very valuable. From Kahukaloa the
trail ascends and the horses fairly
climb, but the proposed road will be
built on an easy grade.
There are mountains, gulches, cas-
cades and waterfalls to attract the
eye all along the road, and at Waihee
the auto awaited us. Here, too, we
found a party Of tourists wandering
out along the road attracted by it's
beauties. Chairman Pogue was a
fund of information, and Mr.. Drum
mond, the new supervisor from Hama,
got his first lesson in comparative
road building. The latter part of the
trail is even now a splendid road, a
little widening and cutting out sharp
turns and it makes an auto road of
the first class, ascending higher in
altitude than any auto road on Oahu.
Maui's Example to Oahu.
Il am glad l had the opportunity
to make the West Maui belt trip with
the supervisors. It makes me wonder
why we so neglect our should-be belt
road around Koko Head and Muka-
pun point to Waimanalu and the Nuu-
anu Pail. l have taken this walk
with fifty people at a time, and the
trail is much used. There are splen-
did beaches on the other side. 1t is
a shame that we have to go to Maui
to learn what real belt road enter
prise means. Why not invite Pogue
and his supervisors to come over and
stir us up? We are missing splendid
opportunities It is time to get to-
gether on Oahu and emulate Maui.

HABEAS CORPUS WRIT VOIl

Chicago.-A delay of at least
two days in the beginning of the
trial of the nine Chicago packers in
dicted for violating the Sherman anti
trust law was secured by their coun-
sci in the federal district court here.
The delay was granted by Judge G.
c. Kohlsaat in the United States cir
cult court after the defendants had
been defeated in efforts to make eff
fectiye a writ of habeas corpus. An
appeal to the United States Supreme
court was allowed by Judge Kohlsaat.
After deciding to quash the writ of
habeas corpus and ordering the de-
PENDANTS remanded to their sureties,
Judge Kohlsaat agreed to delay for
NAL entry Of his decision and order
for two days. This, it is asserted,
will postpone the opening OF the
criminal trial of the packers long
enough to permit the indicted
men to get their appeal to the United
States Supreme court, before they au,
tomatically accept Jurisdiction in the
district court by appearing at the trial
there
James Sheean of special counsel for
the government, made sharp objection
to this delay.

ONE AMERICAN IDEA FAILS
Tourists From This Country Form
Only 8 Per Cent. of Those Who
Visit Switzerland.

We have been telling ourselves SO
long that our American tourists keep
up the European hotels and that but
for them Europe would become bank
rupt, we have come to believe it.
Some figures ON the subject now come
from Switzerland, the Mecca" Of all
Americans after they have reaped
their reward for virtue by visiting
Paris
Swiss hotels entertain about two
million tourists annually, and if those
who stay at pension and boarding
houses are included the number Of
guests reaches three million. Of this
number % per cent. are the Swiss
themselves. The Germans, who are
often pictured as stay-at-homes, con-
stitute A. per cent, then come the
English, l. per cent; the French, 15
per cent, AID the Americans, who,
with their eight per cent, are only one
per cent. ahead of the italians. &c.
after all, 1t seems that Switzerland
would not go to the wall IL the Ameri-
cans boycotted Europe long enough at
least to see the wonders and beauties
of the Grand Canyon, the Canadian
Rockies. the Yellowstone, the Yosem,

Pity the Chinese Student.

A new map of China was recently
published by German house which
undertakes to transcribe the chief
names in the exact forms which they
assume In the dialects of the respec-
tive provinces as well as the common
ly accepted form. In this way the f1f-
teen chief dialects are represented,
says the National Review. The COM
monty accepted form is printed in
dark green, the dialect forms in black.
Thus such unfamiliar forms appear
as Taetsiu for Taichow, Fupe for HUI
pei, F'ulan for Human, Hokkiong for Flu
ken, Ssjutchon for Suchow, etc.
Other features which make the map
valuable are the thoroughness with
which 1t treats Mongolia and the Ko-
konor country north OF Szechuan-
regions which In most maps are left
more or less blank spaces.
