nous on the Mauna Kea and the Clau'
dine, where there Is very little sea
sickness anyhow.
Anyhow, Morehead has resigned. He
was not fred, in spite of rumors to
the contrary.
Morehead has for the last month
been considering starting In business
! for himself and he therefore, when he
made certain of the business he WAS
about to undertake, severed his con
nections with the firm with which he
has for considerable period been
successfully identified.
Morehead will open a drug store Of
his own on Front street, mauka side,
near Mooheau Park, in the premises
at present occupied by the Japanese,
| Kameoka about July Is.
The new firm will likely be known
as the Hawaii Drug Company.
There have been several rumors as
to the cause of Morehead getting out
of the Hilo Drug Company. One was
really dramatic in its imagination. 1t
was alleged that Morehead was giving
away with every purchase of an cleo
iric iron toaster, chaing.dish or other
contriyance which would be worked
| by heat generated by electricity, a
patent which would prevent tho cleo
trio light and power people from know
ing where their juice went.
Morehead laughingly denies that he
did anything of the kind. In fact
Morehead declares that he would givo
, anybody good price for an invention
/ that would enable electricity users to
use electricity without having to pay
for II. Morehead himself uses cleo
tricity and he pays for what he uses.
! Like many other people he would like
! to use the electricity for nothing, II
such a thing we're possible.
Another story about Morehoad'G
| resignation was to the effect that he
had secured so many drug agencies IN
his own name, without giving the HilG
Drug Company the benefit of the agen'
cies, that he was asked to resign.
The truth of the matter is, however,
that Morehead resigned for the reason
that he was about to start into bust.

Emphatically, members Of the next
oregon legislature are not in favor of
appropriating 100000 for a state ex.
hibit at the Panama Pacific exposition
at San Francisco in 1915. Letters ad-
dressed to the members Of both senate
and house, asking their opinions as to
the amount that should be appropriat.
ed and the manner of Us expenditure,
says the Oregonian, have brought re-
plies which invariably veto Senator
Joseph's proposal to set aside half a
million for the purpose. The amounts
suggested range from 100000 tc

but no Marriage

Because Robert Nelson and Eva Nc
Calllster failed to obtain the necessary
assistance Of minister after securing
a marriage license, and continued to
reside together in local roomine
house, Justice Webster Yesterday
bound them over to await the action
OF the next grand jury on a charge Of
violating the statute which requires
that a marriage is not legal until a
minister or judicial officer performs
the ceremony on a license issued by a
county clerk.

afternoon in the justice court, Nelson
obtained a marriage license, with the
intention Of marrying Miss Eva Nc
Clellan, of Albany Miss Mcclellan

PEELED to 80 TO the hospital, thus de-
laying the marriage. Atterward re-
covering, she is said to have returned
to Nelson's quarters, whore she re-
Imained until Officers Burkhart and
Thompson arrested the couple last
Monday. officer Burkhart testified
yesterday that Nelson admitted to him
that they had been living together rs
man and Wife and thought they had q
right to do so, In view Of the fact that

and II was the intention to engage d
minister as soon as the prosperity,
bride was sufficiently recovered from
her recent illness.
This case may develop into some
thing far more serious, according {,
the officers. They state that the granJ
jury will most likely prefer a white
slavery charge against Nelson, and &
was for this reason that the dstric
attorney and the officers wished IN,

NOT TO SEEK
TO ABOLISH
CITY COURT
TO KEEP PRESENT STATUS
Bar Association Opposed to
AbOliShiRg City Court

The suggestion made recently at a
meeting of the Americus Bar Asso-
citation, looking to the abolition OF
the City Court of Americus and the
instituting of two additional terms of
Superior court, was finally passed up
on at the meeting of the Bar Asso-
citation yesterday morning, the asso-
citation having by its action register
ed its opposition to such a change.
The motion to table the proposition
prevailed.
At the bar meeting a week ago the
proposition to abolish the City court
was introduced, to the evident sur
prise of many of the attorneys, and
it was discussed informally among
the members of the bar. A commit
tee of five members was appointed 10
make full investigation of the rela-
tive cost to the county of maintain
ing the City court and the substitu-
ton of two additional terms of Su-
perior court instead, and during the
past week the records We're gone over
very carefully.
At the bar meeting yesterday this
committee, consisting of Messrs. Z.
A. Hawkins, W. A. Dodson, James A.
Fort, R. L. Maynard and Hollis Fort,
reported to that body, a majority fav-
oring the proposed change. The NIL
nority members of the committee then
introduced motion to table the COM
mittee report, which prevailed by
unanimous vote, when it was seen
that there was serious opposition =
the proposed change, Judge J. A
Ansley. Nestor of the local bar spoke
at length in favor of the City court.
The proposition to abolish this tri-
bunal which, it is claimed, prevents
great expense to the county in the
trial of cases has been effectually dis
posed of, and the City court will con-
tinue in it's wide field of useful
ness.
