In Ohio
Expresses His Thanks In A
Formal Statement

Columbus. o.. May 23-GOy. Hag-
mon has given out the following state
ment:
Such sweeping victory in Ohio
would be pleasing under any cOndi-
tons. But in view of the strong and
various forces We had to meet and the
methods resOrted TO am profoundly
gratified not so much on my own ae-
count as on that OF the party. Defeat
would have been taken as a repudia-
tion OF our two successive Democrat
their emphatic approval by the people
of the state. would have set Us back
for years. The influence which so
long made the party In the state inn
potent for good would have resumed
control, and the practices which dis
credited it would have been renewed
The standards OF good government
We have raised will now not be low
cred. and the party will retain the
confidence of the voters as a useful
agency for the common welfare
We shall have nearly IL not quite
forty OF the forty-eight delegates to
Baltimore. four Of the minority being
from Cleveland. where We had no can
didates. those presented by the Baker
organization agreeing To be bound by
the preference vote OF their districts.
1T would be inyidiOus TO make
special mention when So many places
signally proved their staunchness. but
l am sure all will approve when I ex-
press out gratitude TO the loyal
friends in Cleveland Tor their fine
showing on ;he preferential vote.

SUMMER SCHOOL !
STARTS IN JULY

This morning Superintendent Pobe,
of the public instruction department
issued notices Of the opening of the
summer school term Of 1912. The 3yt-
tenn is much appreciated by teachers
as 1t gives them a chance Of ecquir-
ing an advanced education that will
enable them to obtain higher grades
to teach in the schools The notice
follows.
"A summer school for teachers of
the public schools will be conducted
by the department of public instruction
at the Normal school in Honolulu.
This school will be in session for a
period of four weeks, opening July
8, and closing August 2. The regular
teachers examinations will be held
August 5, 6, Z. The object of the
school will be for the purpose of i'm
proving the teaching force.
No tuition fee win be charged. All
teachers in the employ of the de-
partment or persons who may have
been employed as teachers may be
admitted. Candidates must be over
eighteen years of age. Those expect
ing to attend should present their
names to the department for registra-
ton as early as pos sible. Regular
attendance and thorough work is ex'
pected throughout the entire term.
The school will be conducted very
much along the lines of that of last
year. Those teachers who completed
part of the work last year may con
tinue the work this year.
The fall term of the next school
year will begin September 16, 1912.
Mr.. Charles E. King has been select.
ed as director in charge. Other mem
beEs of the faculty will probably be
Miss Meisner, Mrs. Marshall, Mr.. Ray
mond, Mr.. Bairos, Mr.. Baldwin and
Mrs. Tucker.
Subjects to be reviewed in summer
school, English-Grammar, Litera.
ture, Expression Work; Mathematics
Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry; His
tory; Geography; Elementary Science
Physiology, Sanitation, Nature
Study; Music-Methods of Teaching
and School Supervision.
It is anticipated that many teachers
will avail themselves of the opportun'
ity of attending the summer school.

JOINT EXPOSITION

OF the grounds. Also the commits.
soners have been called upon to have
tlans prepared, for which they have
40 money to pay; and various other
items of incidental expense amount.
ing to some $500, it is said, have been
borne by the members themselves.
The commercial bodies were asked to
come to the front with a pledge for
sufficient money to see the big project
through, trusting that the next Legis-
lature will make good the pledge
through appropriation. -
w. H. McInerny, secretary of the
joint committee, stated THIS morning
that as soon as possible an express
SION Of opinion as to the desirabilitv
of taking part in the exposition will
be secured by postcards sent out to
representative men throughout the
Territory. He further stated that the
committee felt that anything like
S250.00O would be extravagant At
any rate the people will probably not
lie asked to express an opinion as to
the amount that should be spent.
I'VE feel" said Mr.. McInerny, that
the San Francisco people and our swu
representatives in that city are I'M
duly enthusiastic in this matter, and
that there is no crying Seed of max
ing a selection of site at once. /
am Of the opinion that we shall still
have plenty of time to get good To-
cation and to erect building, after
the legislature has had time to pass
OF the matter.
"As to the amount that should be
spent, the great state of New York
is said to be going to spend $750,00O
1t doesn't seem to me that Hawaii
should be expected to spend a third
as much in order to do her part
About 100000 should be sufficient
The committee Is taking up the mat
ter of securing, If possible, an appro
pliation from the federal government
for our building, the sane as was
made for the Territorial a. the Seat
tie exposition two years ago"

DISEASES AMONG
THE Immigrants

DR.. Pratt, president of the board
of health, stated this morning that
there are sixty-seven cases of measles,
humps and other infantile diseases
among the newly arrived immigrants
who are on Quarantine Island. There
are also two cases of diphtheria on
the island.
Two hundred immigrants will be
released today some time, and as they
have not been in contact with The
sick people, they will probably be
shipped off to the plantations in a
very short time.
The president of the board of health
is very pleased with the reports that
came in on Saturday and Sunday
from the other islands. Everything
is running on we'll and the rat cam
paign on Hawaii is doing an immense
amount of good.
Inspector Knott of Molol1ai is in
town, and he reports all well on
windward Molokai. The inspector
will remain in town for a few days.
The health exhibit, which is still at
the Central Grammar School, is open
to the public, and everybody inter-
ested in the matter is invited to drop
in and see the exhibition.

NEWS DOESN'T
AFFECT PRICES

Reports from Washington on Satur-
day to the effect that the Senate
Finance Minority Committee was
likely to recommend a reduction in
the sugar tariff amounting to 33 1-3
per cent, and the elimination of the
Dutch standard of color and the differ
entail on refined, seems to have been
very generally in line with the opin-
ions of holders of local sugar stocks
Some curiosity was evinced this
morning as to what the effect of the
