H AS ANOTHER
POSITION
Governor Frear Bids Aloha to
Co-W0rkerS and Sails for
Mainland

After a farewell private conference
in the executive chamber with each
territorial department head, signing a
few final communications, and adyis-
'ng his private secretary and stenog-
sapher to take a vacation before his
successor arrives, Governor Frear
walked out of the capitol building
this morning, and few minutes later
boarded the WilheImina, sailing for
the mainland.
He said he had no idea how long
he would be gone. but expects to
take what he considers the first real
vacation since he accepted the execu-
tive chair, six years ago.
For the first time in many years,
the executive chamber looks desert.
ed. The governor finished a most
thorough house-cleaning, leaving only
a few law books on the desk, a map
or two and in the top drawer copy
of the official rules of etiquette be
oueathed him by Governor George r.
Carter when that official stepped
dowa and out
One of the last persons to pay re-
spects to the departing governor was
Land Commissioner Joshua ID. Tuck
er, who literally arose from a sick
bed to fulfill the formality. Tucker
became the victim of dengue Satur-
day, and in the last three days has
lost eighteen pounds in weight.
Though by no means a,shadow as yet,
he looked to be a very sick man, and
shortly after bidding his chief good
bye, returned to his home.
VERY little official action will be
taken by me during the governors
absence" said Mott-Smith, now the
acting governor, end only routine
and most urgent affairs will receive
attention"
He issued a commission immedi-
ately, reappointing A. r. Keller to
the board of health. Keller's term
expired August 81, placing him in the
same dilemma encountered by DR.. J..
s. B Pratt recently, which is that the
Office becomes vacant on the expira-
ton of members term and remains
SO until new appointment or reap
pOintment is made.
In transacting the little business
that will come before him as acting
governor, Mott-Smith will occupy the
executive chamber, returning to his
own Office to handle matters Of the
territorial secretary, chairman of the
public utilities commission and chair
mSn Of the public archives commits

TRICK TURNED BY DIPLOMAT
Nicaraguan Postage Stamps, Issued
at Unfortunate Time, Lost That
Country the Canal.

A postage stamp which played 9
part in history is told about by M
Bunau-Varilla in his book on the Pan
anna canal. The incident occurred
when the discussion over the relative
merits of the Panama and Nicaragua
routes was at its height. Bunau
Vanilla had been working vigorously
for the Panama route, making use OF
the two arguments of less cost anc
immunity from active volcanoes.
- One day he recalled that Nicaragua
had issued handsome stamp, show.
ing volcano in full activity. He at
once sent to the dealers in foreign
stamps in Washington, and obtained
ninety Of these stamps, which he for.
warded to the ninety senators, along
with bits of paper bearing the words:
Postage stamp Of the republic OF
Nicaragua; an official witness of the
volcanic activity of Nicaragua"
The catastrophe at st. Pierre took
place about this time, to deepen the
impression Of, volcanic danger, and
the Panama route was adopted by the
narrow margin of four votes.

Bemidji has the advantage in prac-
