OAXACA SECEDES
FROM MEXICO

! MEXICO CITY, November 25.-The
state of Oaxaca, formally declared to-
day that it did not recognize the CEN
trail government. This action was
taken by the legislature and ratified
by Governor Renito Juares, Jr., as
result of the refusal of President Ma
dero to permit the federal troops to
assist the governor in suppressing To-
cal insurrectionists.
Crowds are said to have marched
through the streets of the town to-
day yelling Death to Madero and the
central government" and declaring
the people of Oaxaca would fight to
the last to maintain the sovereignty
of the state.
To all intents and purposes, Oaxaca
has seeded and placed herself in A
state of rebellion. The federal gov
eminent, however, has not yet decid.
ed to regard it as such.
In official circles, it is considered
probable that Aadero will send a COM
mission to treat with Governor Juarez
before attempting military subIec-
ton.
The state of oaxsca, the birthplace
Of Portirio Diaz and Benito Juarez,
the president Of the reform period, Is
populous, and there is no attempt to
deny that its men are capable of max
ing a vigorous fight. Mexicans of the
better class regard the situation as
critical.

NOW WILL you BE eoopq

The new Maui paper, the Weekly
Times, rises as follows to a question
of privilege:
I'VE are being pestered with so
many silly, annoying questions con-
corning our newspaper as to who
owns it, who writes for it and so on
ad nauseam, that we feel it mcuni-
bent upon us to make a plain state
ment and thus silence the wagging
tingues.
ITO begin with, Mr.. Vetle A. vetle-
sen is sole proprietor of The Weekly
Times. 1t is not a STOCK company,
nor is 1t backed up by anybody, finan-
cially or otherwise. There is only
one editor of The Weekly Times, and
his name is Vetle A. Vetlesen. He
has nobody to assist him, but does ell
the work himself, all but the printing.
He writes the editorials and the spe-
cial articles, edits the news-leters
from his correspondents reads
proof. Some people can't understand
how he can manage both his store
and his newspaper at the same time.
1t is hard work, certainly, very hard,
but he does it, though he often has
to burn the midnight oil to get
through. At college Mr.. Vetlesen took
up Latin, French, English and Ger
man as special studies. While in col
lege he started a college newspaper,
the Argus, and became it's editor. At
the age of seventeen he wrotes arti-
Giles for the leading newspapers in
Christiania, Norway, thus receiving
his first journalistic training. OF
late years he has written several
short stories and poems for New
York magazines under a nom de
plume. 1t was for the love of The
work, for the love of writing, that he
started his Weekly Times, which, to
judge by the many laudatory COM
ments, appears to be a decided sue
cess"

At the invitation of the Honolulu
Iron Works fifty members of the Ha-
waiiaR Sugar Planters Association
and their friends accepted an invita-
ton to visit the dry dock at Pearl
Harbor, Fort Kamehameha and a new
piece of machinery that has been in
stalled at the Honolulu plantation by
the Honolulu Iron Works. The outing
was a thoroughly enjoyable one in
every way
The guests assembled at the Homo
lulu Iron Works, Kakaako, at nine
o'clock in the morning, and the very
few who feared sea.sickness decided
to take automobiles to the railway
station, and then the train to Pearl
Harbor. The others went on the
Intrepid. in charge of Captain Chris.
Hyde, and after a pleasant trip all
were landed at Pearl Harbor. Soon
the boat was outside and, as there was
q bit of a sea on, she rolled bit, but
no one was seasick. Captain Hyde
took her up the channel in his best
way. Naturally, this work was very
interesting. for very W had ever
been that way before.
Some interesting details concerning
the channel have been given. On her
bar there is thirty-ive feet of water,
thus permitting the biggest warship
that has ever been built to pass
through in anything but the very
toughest weather. The entrance is
about 600 feet wide. with an average
width of 500 feet. The average depth
is thirty feet, but in some places it
goes as deep as fifty feet and even
one hundred.
Everything was of interest. There
was a dredger at work, another piece
of machinery was engaged in sweeping

shown definitely his attitude. His
latest proclamation applauded AWiscon-
sin methods of dealing with monopol-
istic corporations-which is essential
ly La Follette-and condemns the TAFT
method. That sounds progressive.
But Wall Street applauded the essen
tials of the Roosevelt writing and
made of it a reason for booming
stocks. And Wall Street to the true
progressive is hateful.
So the dread of the progressives is
lest Roosevelt whom they distrust,
may like the camel of Arabian fable,
get his nose in their tent, and finally
fill it all to their exclusion. In the
coming session of the Senate they will
have to attack the administration,
keeping all the time an eye open to
see that the advantage of their attacks
does not accrue to Roosevelt. If the
La Toilette candidacy, formally pre-
sented by several progressive Sena-
tors and seemingly acquiesced in by
the others, is to be pushed the honors
of the session Of the Senate must be
garnered for La Toilette. His tariff
bill, for he will have one, must get the.
united progressive support. There
will be also the administration tariff
bill as bills based on the report of
the tariff commission, and the Under
wood measures expressive of the
views of the Democratic majority in
the House. If the tariff does unset
tie business as business is fond of
saying, the outlook is for a pretty
vigorous unsettling in 1912.
No Currency Legislation.
Currency legislation will be urged
by the administration, but there is no
expectation on the part of any one in
position of leadership that any bill
will be passed even in the Senate.
The peace treaties, negotiated by the
department of state, will be debated
and made a part of the record to
which the President will point with
most confidence in his appeal for re-
nomination. In the House the Demo-
Gratis will unite in amendments to the
Sherman law which will be defeated
in the Senate. In the House, too, the
game of presidential politics will be
played with vigor, with one candidate,
Champ Clark, in the chair, another,
Oscar Underwood, leading the major
ity party and the partisans of at least
ten more on the floor ready to mingle
in the fray.
1t will be a great session for poll
tics, but for legislative achievement
not so great. But hose who cling to
the theory that making laws is an evil
will not have cause to complain of the
second session of the Sixty-second |
