In Momoriam-Mrs. E. j. Cook.


Anna Benjamin Cook, in tribute to
whose memory this brief sketch is
written, was born in Brsnden, Oak
land county, Feb. 10, 1843. Her early
youth was spent amid the refining in

lin, where she won and held the respect
of all with whom she became associat-

After returning from .Oberlin she

ty where as teacher of the Octagon
school. in new field of action, encom-
passed by the ever widening circle OF
friendship she met and married on
June ID, 1866, E. j. Cook.
AS girl, teacher, friend, wife and
mother, her life ever seemed teeming
with desire and a resolution to build
for the higher things, character re-
plete with rich experiences, a gentle
and far.reaching influence making the
world better for her having lived. AL
though fortunate, through life in all
her surroundings, she was ever animal.
ed by those generous, finer instincts
that make universally for peace.
Mrs. Cook was woman of rare in.
tellectual capacity. her mind enriched
by familiarity with the works of the
best authors, likewise q close and
thoughtful reader of all that develops
and makes for true advancement in
our American life.
Her home was delight to all alike
in every particular made metbodical,
tasteful and splendid in appointment
by her tactful and systematic manage
ment.
She was large in her charities, with
manner uncommonly pleasing, with a
kindly word to those most humble no
less than those of stronger mein Ever
faithful in ministering to the Lsick and
caring for the poor, always dispensing
cheer with willing spirit and comfort
with ready hand.
On March 10, 1912, when the intel
ligence of her death was received who
of her wide circle of friends and ac-
quaintances did not feel that they had
lost something cheering from their
pathway, some guiding spirit to which
they had been accustomed to turn in
time of joy or sorrow and whose coun-
sci was wise, sympathetic and genuine.
Virtues have no power to ward >off
the arrows of death and while we bow
submissively amid our mourning, we
cannot cease to feel an irreparable loss,
but will ever cherish that better part,
the legacy to bright example, the
memory of precious deeds.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August L.
The National Progressive Republican

In statement announcing the pur-
pose of the League Senator Bourne,

The National Progressive Republic
can League was organized in January,
1911, for the promotion Of FIVE prin.
ciples OF popular government, namely:
Popular election of United States Sem
ators, direct primaries, presidential
primaries, initiative, referendum and
recall and a thoroughgoing corrupt
practices act.
Since that time this organization
has kept up a continuous campaign

seeing. Their host of friends wish
for them a most delightful vacation.
Several parties have been making
the trip to Haleakala this summer.
: The weather has been most favor
able for mountain climbing. All who
have been up say that the sunsets
have been wonderful Many. report
that the early morning cloud effects
are not as good as in some other
years. q. ..,x.~ r..
j. This is undoubtedly dine to the fact
that during the last six weeks the air
has been so lacking, in moisture that
the clouds have not been so heavy on
IIaleakala, nor has there been so
much wind as is usual in August to
drive the clouds through the crater
and around over Central Maui plain.
The last two or three days have
brought plentiful showers over the
Makawao region. On Sunday night
a heavy rain fell for short time in
Wailuku. The plantation bitches are
running full over all the Central
Maui plantations. Had the drought
continued much longer the cane would
have been considerably effected. ~
The region that has suffered the
most is the Haleakala Ranch district.
For over one hundred and thirty days
there has been no rain, according to
reports recently received. The long
est period with no rain previously
! was sixty-seven days The present
record is phenomenal, and were it not
for the ever-watchful efforts of Man
ager L. von Tempsky in turning the
water in the different. sections of the
ranch most carefully, the cattle would
have died by the hundreds. As 1t is,
he has lost comparatively few, and
those near the highways look in fair
condition considering : the terrible
drought in- the region. Last winter
the Hawaiians prophesied this
drought, for little snow fell on Hale
akala. A year of little snow in win
ter always means, they say, a dry
summer. On one day only last win
ter a little snow could be seen on the
summit OF the mountain. That was
quickly dissipated Two years be-
fore the mountain had an unusually
! large snowfall, and the succeeding
summer was one of the wettest in
many years.
