ed very convenient quarters, consist
ing of a building 200 feet long with
stalls for single entries and herds on
either side, properly ventilated and
furnishing protection for stock against
the weather.
The Agricultural building, 80 by 200
feet, has been remodeled in many re-
spects and preparations have been
been made for the display off exhibits
in the most effective and artistic man
Ecr. Ample space has been allotted in
this building to the horticultural de-
partment, arrangements having been
made to protect all fruits and flowers
from being handled by spectators, who
will, however, be afforded a full view
OF the exhibits.
The Women's department will be
housed in n end of this building
and suitable space and accommoda-
tons are being arranged for all other
departments of the Fair.
In addition to a number of speak
ers of national reputation the Fair
will be featured by several events
among which will be the Better
Babies" contest in which a number
Of babies have been entered and for
which $125 will be given in cash
prizes in connection with gold, silver
and bronze medals; the free college
scholarship contest, the rural singing
contest, military m~aneuvers, and elab-
crate exhibitions Of agriculture, live
stock, fruit, domestic are and machin-
cry. The midway attractions will be
highly pleasing and everything posi-
bic will be done to make it a repre-
sentative fair of Western North Car
DINA.
The entry books have been opened
and thousands of catalogs have been
distributed owe Western North Caro-
lima, as a result of which entries are
pouring in from all sections.
The efficiency of Prof. w. H. Gale,
superintendent of Hendersonville
graded schools, as an educational
worker was not overlooked by the Fair
association in it's selection of direc-
tors for the Educational and the Boys
Girls departments, the latter being an
entirely new feature in connection
with Fair work in this state. Prof.
Gale has the cooperation of a number
of educators in this important fea-
ture and their close attention to this
work gives sufficient reason to believe
that the new department as we'll as
the Educational department will be a
distinct success.

The Ridge is really a remarkable
place, anyway. It shows a most COM

many ways-not the least in this mat

The exhibits will be interesting to
both home folks and to strangers.
The entries will be many and the
prizes and awards satisfactory.

Regulation Regarding Mode of
Salute Will Not Affect Gallan-
try of Officers or Soldiers.

Because an Army regulation says that
officers and enlisted men shall use the
hand to make salutes, whether on or
of duty, and whether outdoors or in
q railway train, in stores and steamboat
and railway stations, some officers of
the Hawaiian department believe it
prohibits them from lifting their caps
TO women.
The regulation sets forth that the
hand salute includes "any person what
ever Officers cOnstrue this to mean
women rs well as men, and that in
future they will he compelled to greet
women only with q hand salute, the
same as they give in return to enlisted
men or their own superiors.
One officer states that although the
old-time etiquette toward women is to
idoff the headgear when meeting them,
such custom can easily be relegated to
oblivion, if the war department decides
it shall be. The new custom, he argues,
can Just as easily become habit with
the women as the old one, despite the
fact that Sir Walter Raleigh stands to-
day as the ideal of gallant courtesy

moved his hat, but threw his cloak upon
the ground that tho woman he met on
an historic occasion should not soil her
slippers.
Captain Massee, judge advocate of
the department, interprets the regula-
,tion to mean any one entitled TO mill
tary salute, and, in that sense, women
do not come within the classification.
"The custom of cap salutes is one
that obtains in all foreign services, "
said Lieutenant Ball, aid to General
Funston, yesterday, "and there is no
reason why our salute TO both colors
and service people should not be the
same. As to the women, well, IL the
regulations say we should salute them
as we do officers and men. then SUP.

Commissioners Report Shows
That Total Receipts for Year
Amounted to s492, 440.43.

Il A vast amount of business was trans.
acted during the twelve months up to
june 30 this year by the territorial
land office, as shown by the big report
that has just been filed with the Gov
crnor by Land Commissioner Joshua ID.
Tucker. The report covers twenty-seven
closely typewriter pages, and to the
uninitiated seems almost meaningless,
so compaetly arranged are the innumer-
able columns of dollar signs, figures and
other detailed data.
The total receipts of the land Office
for the year amounted to 1892, 44O 43.
The principal item of revenue came in
rents, which brought 1921 ,974. 50. Land
sales brought $l92,526. ~, of which
$llJ,3Is. 40 was realized from the sale
of the Auwaiolimu homesites last Au.
gust and $77,207 50 from the sales of
other government lands in the Terri
tory. Interest and fees received during
the period amounted to $5559 40, and
other realizations brought in S2379 70.
There were 252 land patents issued,
conveying title in fee simple to as many
persons by the Territory. The patents
covered 1476. 627 acres and represented
cash receipts of $l35,933 SO.
During the year there were 800 new
homesteads taken up, valued at $l19,-
$40. 90 OF this number $50 were taken
by Hawaiians, seventy.two by Portu.
guese, forty.fve by Americans and fifty
eight by people of other nationalities.
"We sold some land during the past
year which would have brought Sl35,-

Unfortunately for the Territory,

NEW PROBLEM
FOR GOVERNOR
Hawaiian Born japanese, Claim
ing Rights of Citizenship, File

ernor May Be Asked 10 Pass on
Question of Allowing Them.

That only n short time win now
elapse before Ilawaiian-born Japanese,
who. because of having been born in
Hawaii, are accorded all the rights and
privileges of American citizenship, will
be in a position to hold their own, IL
not TO dictate politics and other public
affairs in the Territory, is the belief
Of many students of local conditions.
This view is now borne out to a
greater extent thar heretofore, and an
application for homesteads, filed in the
land department yesterday, comes as a
clincher of the argument. Numerically
the Hawaiian. born japanese have not,
until this incident developed. shown
much strength when eleven out of
twenty-six applicants for homesteads
are japanese. the condition faces those
who have feared what the future will
bring about, is the opinion of several
persons who have discussed the situa-
tion.
The applications for homesteads come
from Kohala, and the applicants ask
that certain lands at Kaahuhu, near
the lIawi plantation in the district of
North Kohala, be opened for settle.
ment. The application was forwarded
to Land Commissioner Tucker by II. L.
Holstein, the Kohala attorney who was
speaker of the last house of representa-
tives of the territorial Legislature.
OF tho twenty-six applicants. eleven
are japanese and like number are
Portuguese, while all other nationalties
are represented by only four applicants.
The granting or denial Of the .appli.
cants' request is up to the Governor
and the land commissioner. and not the
land board, as has been claimed.
"The Governor will not take any
action on this application said Com
missioner Tucker yesterday. This was
explained to mean that since Governor
Frear will shortly be succeeded as the
chief executive of the Territory, he
does not see his way clear to take any
action now that his successor has been
named, but will leave the matter en-
tirey to him. "GovernOr Frear will
pass the buck on the japanese question
TO Governor Pinkham, - said an
official of the Territory yesterday. aud
he smiled as he cracked what seemed to
him a good joke.
