Speaking of bacteria, Dr. Pratt has
the following to say;
"Quite a number of bacteria are
found in the soil, especially near the
surface. The ground bacteria are
divided into two groups-those Of de
cay putrefacton and fermentation
called saprophytic and the bacteria
called pathogenic formed by the pro
cess of organic decay and which, in
troduced into the human system, are
capable of producing various diseases
or those which become lodged in the

RUMOR OF HIS PROMOTION

Governor Frear was asked this
morning by a Star representative
whether or not there was anything in
the report that he has been suggest
ed as a possible assistant secretary
of the interior The Governor smil-
ed, and said that he thought there
was nothing in the rumor.
Il heard that story some days ago.
I saw the man who got the cable, but

In response to another question
about the charges that are said to
have been made by Kuhio against
him, Governor Frear stated that he
had, up till noon, heard nothing more
about added" charges.
The Governor had caller this

well as personal conversations. Some
of his remarks are the following.
To show how very small a part the
American plays in the actual planta-
ton labor of the islands, one need
only refer to the figures of employ
ment in 1909. Out of Al, ,67S plantation
workers in that year, only GOA were
Americans-and they were practically
all in special or skilled positions. On
the other hand the number Of Japan

Down at the territorial immigration
station this morning there were some
reunions of long separated relatives,
that made the water appear in the
eyes of even hardened newspapermen
and immigration officials. The first
contingent of Spanish immigrants
were released and sent on their way
to the other islands. One hundred and
sixty-three men, women and children,
were taken out of the depot and ship
ped on the Mauna Kea to Maui and
Hawaii.
The most pathetic and yet, at the
same time, joyful scene was when a
youth of seventeen, who arrived in the

From every standpoint the excur
sion was big success. The two best
steamers of the Inter-Island company,
the flagship Maunt Kea and the new
steamer Kilauea, carried the crowd.
Both were filled to the limit of their
capacity with a pleasure-seeking
crowd, who made light of the neces-
sary crowding and ~ accepted every
thing, even what little seasickness
there was, as a joke. Fortunately the
weather was fine, both going up and
coming back, and there were few
cases of NAL de mer In fact, the

It is possible that the annual meet
