He also emphasized the "get together spirit and stated that the time would come when everybody should pull together for Bir- mingham, quit politics and put men i'll office. He drew a comparison between the present conditions and the conditions ex- istent in the days of the Kuklux Klan. Then" he said they did not deal with the technicalities of law, but justice in the more pronounced form was dealt out
 Richard F Johnston, managing editor of the Birmingham Ledger, spoke, using for his subject Follow Your Beaoer.' MT Johnston made many material re- marks which were calculated to do great good for Birmingham and her environs.
 He stated that Birmingham was the best advertised city in the United States and quoted from an editorial recently pulp lished in'the Louisville (I<y9 Courier Jour nal extolling Birmingham and her splendid opportunities. He referred to the splen- did work that the league had accom- plished, which he attributed largely to the wise selection of the leaders. He stated that the slogan should be Money and Trade for Birmingham"

Birmingham Spirit

We must dream, think and talk Bir- mingham. The Birmingham spirit, the each for all, all for each and all for Bir- pfingham, should so imbue 4us with pride in our city's advancement that we will convince all we meet that this is now, oI, will be. the great southern city of the Future. This can be done without the bragadocio that repels, as it is backed by most convincing truth.
 Up to two years and half ago I had been for about 20 years connected with "a government bureau. whose principal work was forecasting. The weather bu- reau. May I be pardoned for indulging the forecast habit, when, without need of prophetic vision I say that in a short while from now Birmingham will have a million dollar hotel, that in 20 years from now it will be city of half million. That it will then be the trade center of the south. That a canal will connect us with tidewater. through the Warrior ana the Tombiebee rivers That 20 and 20 story buildings will line our principal streets and avenues. That this will be the steel and iron center of the entire cour- try. That small industries will be plenti- ful and nourshing, and that our children or grand children will be proud of the fact we were here tonight as citizens of Birmingham

suits of great value, and in securing
100 per cent more data relating to
tuberculosis in Hawaii can now build
up a machine of greater efficiency,
through being able to work more d.
rectly against the evil than it for
meTly did.
The objects of the present CAM
paign will be two-fold," said DR.. A.
~ Sinclair, executive officer of the
league, this morning primarily our
greatest desire is to get control of
all the tuberculosis cases in the Ter
ritory and place them under treat
ment. We will seek aid in doing this
in an extended campaign of publicity.
How much this is needed can be I'M
derstood, when it is realized that sew
eral hundred cases of tuberculosis are
reported yearly throughout the Terri
tory that the authorities know moth
ing Of until the patients die and it
becomes necessary to get a death
certificate.
Secondly our efforts will be d.
rected against those conditions breed
ing or encouraging tuberculosis. This
work is of considerable more diff
Guilty. There are prejudices to over
come, so-called property rights to
come in conflict with, and other mat
tiers, all of which are capable of
throwing great Encouragement inthe
way OF the workers. We will at
tempt, through branches of the sys-
TEN at present at our service, to OBJ
tain Fairgrounds for children and to
alleviate congested conditions where
they exist by affording plenty of op-
portunity for fresh air.
I'VE hope to greatly reduce the
of tuberculosis if we can
obtain the control of all consump-
tiVes, as l said before, for every pa
tient under treatment in a sanitarium
or who is being otherwise trained how
to conduct himself with the least pos
sible danger to his companions, is
that much danger removed from the
community at large Medical science
teaches US that 1t is not impossible to
wipe out this dreadful disease alto
gether, and it is our ambition and
hope to place Hawaii in the front
rank of progress in this matter"

At seven of these landings freight
is handled by cable from ships to
shore; at five a considerable haul on
land is involved; at two the total
charges collected amount to practical
ly nothing, and at one, the kahuiui
wharf, the charges are under the con-
troll of the harbor commissioners, who
Sre planning to take this over by
purchase.
This deal, by the way, is held up at
present by a clause in the proposed
contract drawn by the commission,
Which provides that the present own
ers the Kahului Railway, shall not
build another wharf and enter into
competition with the present pier in
case it is bought by the Territory.
This, the commissioners say, Is alb
solutely necessary, as the railway
controls more than ninety percent OF
all the freight passing TO and fro
over the wharf, and should the rail-
way sell the present wharf and then
erect another, giving the new one
all its business. it would leave the
Territory holding the bag"
1t is proposed that after the pur-
chase of the present Claudine wharf
at Kahului by the Territory. new
bulkhead wharf shall be constructed
there. for the use Of deep sea going
vessels. with the Claudine wharf left
for Inter-Island trade.

STORY Of Death
IN kONA FE[JD

d. P. kamauoha, attorney and for
mer surveyor of Napoopoo, Hawaii.
was the sole witness examined during
today's court session in the trial of
John Comes Henriques, accused of
murder in the first degree.
Kamauoha was one of seven or eight
eye-witnesses who were not actively
interested in the ARRAY between the
Japanese and the Henriques family, in
which Aoyama was killed at South
,Kona On the evening of November IA,
1911. and shortly after the affair, at
the Eehest of Deputy County Attorney
w. H. Heen. Kamauoha drew a map
of the grounds, showing the relative
position of the different persons when
the shooting occurred.
This map was produced this morn
ing, and for the first time the jury was
given detailed narrative of the strug-
gle. After his general story of the
battle he was questioned closely con-
corning every detail and every minute
item of interest in the case was re-
lated. 25H.T~ e.
The case was threshed cut in some
detail before the district court Of Ha-
wall prior to the change Of venire
from the circuit court of that island
to Honolulu, and it is an old story
10 the witnesses and all others inter
ested except the present jury. AT
the present rate, however, two weeks
will be only too short for the COM
fletes heariigsof an the evidence.

POLITICAL NOTES

Rev. S. L. Desha, the silver-tongued
orator of Hilo, Hawaii, will arrive in

nominees at the meeting to be held
tomorrow evening at Aala park. De-
sha, as is we'll known throughout the
territory, is one of the best Hawaiian
speakers, not only on the pulpit but

most important political speech of his
life at Aala park tomorrow night.
