There is much complaint from Dal-
lisa people and others who have been
in the habit of travelling to Portland
via Salem, over the new traffic reg
ulations in force on the Willamette
river bridge. 1t now requires about
10 minutes for bus load of pass"n-
gers to cross this bridge and, when
the Falls City train happens to be a
few minutes late into West Salem, it
is impossible to connect with the or.
egon Electric trains All teams a"o
now required to walk over the
bridge, including the approaches.
Some arrangement should be made to
eliminate this difficulty.

HAWAI'S GREAT
CIVIL WAR Film

Although all the incidents of the late
civil war were most thrilling there
was one that was more so than all the
rest, and that was the siege of Peters.
burg. 1t was there that every cruel
feature of war was brought into play
b. both sides, the chasing OF forces,
the burning of homes and bridges.
Acts of daring and courage were
many.
1t is hoped that no one in this city
will live to see such cruel times again
visit the country, but you can see this
war incident again as 1t will be thrown
on the screen at the Hawaii theater
for the first time this evening. 1t is
one of the feature pictures that caps
the climax of film work by the manu-
facturers of this entertaining feature.
1t it a Aim that will give the young
and even the middle aged an idea of
what some of their parents went
through that the country might not be
riven asunder.
This wonderful picture Is being
shown In a series of two reels, and
will be shown for four nights. During
any one of the nights that the series
Is shown the management of the Ha-
wall extends most cordial invitation
to any local g.. A. r. veteran to attend
The lapel button is all the ticket that
they will need.
The picture is certainly one of the
most wonderful productions OF the
film makers art, and should be seen
by everybody in the rity.
In addition to this great civil war
picture there will be others thrown
on the screen that are fully up to the
standard of all previously shown.

IS
T LEADING SPORT

The result of the swimming race on
Saturday, when a Honolulu girl was
able to defeat the Pacific Coast Cham
pion, has already awakened an inter
est in aquatic sports in the young
women of this city. 1t seemed rather
unfortunate that there was only one
girl who was willing to accept a chat
lenge, but If the interest that has al
ready been expressed be kept alive at
another time there will probably be a
number of girls ready to swim any
champion.
Mr. William R. Castle has recently
donated the swimming park at his
Waikiki residence to the Y. w. c. A.
and Miss Upper, the new physical di-
rector of the Association is planning
10 have about three swimming classes
week. The young women OF the Y.
w. c. A. are fortunate too, in that
they have competent teacher. Yos. the
beginner feels far more confident
when an experienced swimmer is near.
It is said, too, that swimming is one
OF the most pleasurable sports for wo-
men who live in the tropics, for most
any other form of exercise is not only
heating, but very firing. Probably one
OF the reasons that many of the good
swimmers are developed in Hawaii is
that the water here Is warm almost
all the year round and swimmers are
seldom If ever forced to give up their
sport because Of the cold weather.
There are number of very young girl
hare was ara dpvnloflinp intn nycpllpnt
swimmers for the reason that they are
in the water most every day and are
in their practice.

and who, according to mainland press
clippings, are a highly entertaining
and talented company. The Laneas-

of musical gems, the majority of their
selections being the popular numbers
from grand opera, but they also have
programs of the lighter operas, having
but recently arranged with the Amer
lean owners of the Gilbert & Sulli-

music from these popular cmposers.
Tonight's offering will be medley
of grand opera and popular airs, and
with seven trained voices rendering

In THE WOMAN'S WORLD

In most every case before a girl can
really learn TO swim she must over
come all fear of the water. Just the
other day a lady was heard TO re-
mark: Il was almost drowned when a
little girl, and since then have been
so afraid of the water. that | nave
never been able to swim" Although
it may not seem easy at first. that fear
can be overcome if the young woman
would make up her mind that she was
not going to- let little incident of the
past. mar many good times for the
future. 1t would hardly be wise for
her TO plunge into deep water. and in
that way try to learn to swim but she
might go in with some good swimming
and with careful training and much
practice soon learn the strokes. For
some reason or other, perhaps because
ii seems easier, the beginner learns
the Erest stroke. The stroke is seldom
seen at Waikiki for the majority of
swimmers here use the single and dou-
BILE overland with the trudgeon kick.
For one who does not do much swim
ming the single overland is the easier,
hut for long distance the double over
hand is the best. Fast swimmers and
racers, however, use the Australian
crawl. Phis as been proven to be the
fastest stroke, and is the one used by
Duke Kahanamoku the world Cham
pion, for so and 100 yards. ..
1t has already been intimated that
the next swimming races will take
place ON the twenty-second of Feb
,ruary. and it is hoped that there will
be large number of island girls who
will be ready to compete.

and we confidently expect the prevail
ing Roosevelt sentiment in Indiana
will be recognized in seating these del

Dixon Says the Results
Cannot Be Taken as Test

Senator Dixon, director of the Roose-
welt campaign bureau, today gave out a
statement in regard to the New York
primaries in which he said: -
''Ful details of just what happened in
the farcical primaries held at New York
city yesterday for the election of dele
gates to the republican national conven-
tiop and to the New York state conven-
tion are not yet available. but the
columns of the bitterly anti-Roosevelt
press of New York city this morning fur
nish sufficient evidence that no reliance
can be placed rightfully upon such a test
of the sentiment of the voters, and that
a new primary is absolutely necessary to
determine what the rank and file of the
party in New York desire"
Senator Dixon then quoted from a num-
Der of New York papers to show the in
sufficiency of ballots in many districts in
greater New York. and continued:
with the full knowledge of these con-
ditions and with the added knowledge
that of the candidates running in the
delegate election yesterday in New York,
none were instructed except those who
were openly running upon the Roosevelt
tickets, the Taft managers are today
claiming the election of eighty-three in
structed Taft delegates out of total OF
ninety"

Delegates Place on Ballot.

In reply 10 the allegation of Senator
were Disseminated against in the make
up of the New York primary ballot. d.
rector Mckinley said:
MY attention has been called to an
allegation by Senator Dixon, Mr.. Roose-
velt's campaign manager. that the tart
candidates for delegates in New YORK
county were placed at the top of the
ballot and the Roosevelt candidates FOR
delegate at the bottom. If Senator Dixon
made any such statement as this l am
led 10 infer that he has not personally
examined one of these ballots. The facts
are these:
The New York state primary law. as
Is the case with nearly all the state
primary laws, recognizes the party or
ganiZation as the responsible representa-
tive of each political party and gives TO
it a place on the ballot in accordance
with the votes cast by that party at the
big elections On the republican ballot
in New York yesterday the Taft dele
gates were at the very bottom OF the
first column. while the Roosevelt dele
gates were at the bottom of the second
column, exactly opposite the names of
the Taft candidates, and We're all the
more conspicuous on the ballot for the
reason that there were no other candi-
dates for any office in the second column
Above the names of the Taft delegates
I'm many districts the names of at least
fifty candidates for various offices were
placed and there was nothing to distln-
cuish them except a small heading stat
ing the position for which they were
