Plan SCHOOL TO
CAREfORDEAf
and DUMB

A list of twenty-one names OF deaf
and dumb children residing In and
about Honolulu was yesterday sub.
fnitted to the members OF the Wom-
ans Cooperative League at a meeting
held in the assembly hall of the Ii
brary of Hawaii. 1t is with a view
to establishing in Honolulu a school
for the education of these afflicted
children that the league Is taking a
census of the cases existing on the
island of Oahu, and although the num-
Der of names submitted yesterday Is
large, it is expected that more than
fifty could be benefited by such a
school.
The work of taking the census was
commenced some three months ago,
and as yet is not more than half COM
pleted. There are no facilities in Ho-
nolulu at this time for the education
OF deaf and dumb children, and many
such cases have in the past been sent
to institutions on the mainland. II
will be endeavored by the league to
take the matter before Superintendent
Gibson, of the board of public instruc-
ton, with view to securing in Homo
lulu some means to provide education
for these children
During discussion by the mem
bers relative to the two indictments
reoently made by the grand jury on
white slavery charges, it was empha-
sized that there is in Honolulu today
the great need of home for feeble
minded women and girls. Statistics,
it is claimed, show that more than
ninety per cent of the girls in the
local industrial school are weak
minded

STILL ON THE
SALARY LIST

~
The selection of United States at
torney for Hawaii is about the same
distance ND in the air as the governor
ship. Department of justice oiilciais
agree that there is nothing doing IN
the matter of selecting a success of
for Mr.. Breckons. At the beginning
az this administration it appeared that
i Il. Coke would walk right on with
the plum. He was strongly endorsed.
1t now seems that if Edward M. Wat
SON is named for governor Mr.. Coke 8
chances of securing the attorneysnip
will be materially lessened. Mr..
Coke's endorsements, like those OF
Mr.. Watson, come chiefly from South
ern senators and representatives. 1t
would not look well to hand the two
most important Offices out to the same
people.
The real fact Is that Hawaii is suf-
fering from the holding up of patron
age caused by the pending tariff bill.
The president desires to see how GER
tain senator's vote on sugar and wool
before giving them their share. This
has created a general stagnation. II
senators and representatives of great
sovereign states cannot pull down a
piece of pie, how much less poor
territory with nobody at court but
those who have no voice in framing
the new tariff act.
When the deluge of state patronage
is turned loose Hawaii will not have
long to wait for the settlement of all
the pending patronage problems.

trate Monsarrat this morning was a
package which at one time contained
two dozen cigarettes. The tray also
held small lamp, a tin of opium, a
pipe and needle which was discol-
ored from the drug. This parapher-
MALTA was found in the room occupied
by Ross and several Chinese compan-
ions and, according to McDuffie, the
pipe was still hot when he placed Ross
under arrest. A wreath of smoke is
alleged to have encircled the head of
Ross when the officers forced their
way into the room. The defendant in

cigarettes. while the police are equally
confident that the fumes of cooking
opium filled the apartment. 4

St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1913-08-22

II is well that several sites are
being selected for consideration
on a bond issue for park pur-
poses. With easy access to Port
land parks, there is no real need
of IA large park in st. Johns.
Small parks properly equipped
would afford all the advantages
needed in st. Johns. Places of
recreation, play grounds for the
children and places for athletic
and amusement purposes fill all
necessary requirements. Nor is
il necessary that each of the
small parks he adapted or equip
ped TO fulfill all these features.
One park may be used princi-
pally for play grounds, another
more particularly for athletic
purposes. and others more ap-
propriately for resting and picnic
purposes. For the latter views
of the river and hills are essen
tial features. The river ever
affords "A constantly changing
and diverting attraction for the
eye, with river boats and other
water craft constantly plying up
and down upon its bosom. There
fore. a system of parks would be
incomplete without a park over
looking the Willamette. BY the
system as outlined by the Com
mercial club each of the four
sections of the city would be en-.
abled 10 have a small park al
most at its front door, something
that certainly would not happen
were the park proposition defer
red until this city had become
part of Portland. All the land
under consideration for park
purposes are said 10 be reasona-
bile in price, and regarded as
good investments, which il found
impracticahle for the purposes
for which they had been acquir-
ed later on could be- turned into
money at an advance over the
purchase price. Therefore, i'm
the purchase of parks at this
time the city cannot lose, hut is
bound TO profit 10y the invest
ments. 10 say nothing of the
pleasure and enjoyment TO be de- |
rived from the parks,
