WANT TO CHANGE THE
 FORM OF GOVERNMENT

Honolulu, Dec. 3-A strong eff fort will be made here soon to have Hawaii's government changed from the territorial to the military com mission form, according to a move mert started recently. To all out ward appearances, it is safe to say everybody who is anybody in Ha- wail will be back of it. Very few people in Hawaii however are "any- body"
 The islands are owned and con- trolled by an exceedingly small clique. Hardly more than a half dozen big estates hold title to prac- tically all the land which is worth holding title to. The same interests own all the shipping, jobbing and even retail business of any great importance. Through their owner ship of nearly every means of liv- ing on the islands these same in terests, represented by a numericall. very small group, control everyone else who lives here. Whoever ob- jects to their control is starved out in short order. The big interests have long wanted such a form of government as prevails in the Phil ippiues. Their reason for it is very simple. Lorin Andrews, former United States district attorney here, expressed it cOncisely in a recent interview in San Francisco, cabled back to Honolulu and published in the local newspapers.
 "The change will be a good thing for the business interests of the islands," said Andrews, because all the offices will be filled from Washington and the objectionable el ections will be dispensed with" The objectionable elections are what the big interests do not like about the territorial form of government. The islands must have labor and there is a scarcity of it ever since Oriental immigration was stopped. To offset this, workingmen have been brought in in large numbers from Southern Europe in recent years. This laboring population has not yet been seriously troublesome at the polls but a second-growth of them, native born and entitled to

WELL KNOWN JAPANESE
 WILL LEAVE FOR ORIENT

G. Kanada, more familiarly known to old-time Skagwayans as Togo, who has been a resident of this place for the past ten years, part of the time in the employ of the w. P. & Y. Route but for the past five and a half years, acting as cook at the White Pass Hospital, will leave on the Spokane for his home in Japan, where his wife and three children anxiously await his coming. After spending a few days in Seattle he will take an Oriental liner for Yokohoma and from there will go to Tokio and from thence home. Togo, in addition to his skill in the culinary art, is an am ateur photographer of exceptional ability and numerous Alaskan scenes the product of his camera, are treasure as souvenirs in many homes in Skagway. By close atten- tion to his duties and frugality he has acquired what he considers will be a competency in the land of his birth, and unless a longing for the north again gripes him, will settle down with his family for a peaceful enjoyment of the fruits of lis in- dustry.

PROMOTER IF GIGANTIC FRAUD
 CAUGHT IN TOLLS IF THE LAW

ors who worked on the case declare that Wright advertised stock certi- ficates, associating the name of A. I. Dupont, muiti-millionaire, head of the powder trust", with the scheme. Dupont originally owned the Colorado lands, but gave Wright's firm, the German and Gold Uranium company, an option on them. The Wright farm, say fe them. The Wright firm, say fed eral investigators, failed to exer- else the option and Dupont then withdrew it. Even after this with drawal by Dupont, say the postal au- thorities, the Wright firm continued to sell stock through the mails. The authorities declare that they have found thousands of persons who were investors, but that there are many more who poured their savings out for the "radium" min ing stock.
 Wright declares that the charges against him are ridiculous and that he will show that every bit of stock he is alleged to have sold is worth every cent paid for 1t.

MISS CHRISTABEL PANKHURST
 PRINTS SPIRITED DEFENSE

London, Dec. 3-Prompted by the recent threats of suppressing the publication of the Suffragette on ac- count of her startling series of ar tioles on sexual diseases, Miss Christabel Pankhurst, in the current issue, prints a spirited defense of he action.
 These articles have simply told the truth about sexual diseases, the extent to which they ravage the pop ulation, the reason why they exist, the manner in which they can be prevented, prevention being, as has been carefully shown, the only real cure," she says. Where is the in- decency in all this? That the ex- istence Of sexual disease and the immortality that is it's cause are iA- decent, we are the first to admit. But to tell the truth about such evil and to fight for their abolition is the most decent thing that is pos sible for human beings to do.
 If, however, the Suffragette be convicted of indecency then equal- ly guilty of this offense are the fa- nous medical men who have melted us to our plain speaking. A little while ago forty of the most promin- ent doctors in England, signed a memorial appealing to the public to demand the appointment of Ia Royal Commission which should investigate the facts concern ing sexual disease and recommend steps to be taken to cope with it. In the course of this memorial the doctors said: There has always bee a conspiracy of silence as regards venereaI diseases. Tn etime, how ever, has come when it is a nation al duty to face the facts and to bring them prominently to the notic of the public.
 Ut is all very well to try to pre- vent the indiscriminate dissemina- tion of facts but the upholders of 'decency' have never yet succeeded,

Philadelphia, Dec. 3-Charged with gigantic frauds in the sale of Colorado lands supposed to contain radium miuas valued at $52,OOO,- 900, William A. Wright, wealthy in- vestmen. broker of Boyertown, Pa, riday was given a ht=ring before United .:tatcs officials. The spe- cific charge against Wright is "us- ing the United States nails to de- fraud" He was held in $5,00O bail on November 1S, following a prelim- mary hearing.
 Hundreds of farmers in Pennsyl- vania, New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware are declared to have been victims of Wright's alleged scheme. Some invested as little as $50. Others put into the "Radium Mines" every penny of their hard-earned savings, which in some cases amour ed to $40O and $500. Many we'll to-do farmers, inhabitants of the smaller towns and cities of the state mentioned, invested" from $4O00 t S5,OOO apiece in the Colorado lands.

STUDENTS FROM DISTANT
 STATES ATTEND VARSITY

Seattle. Dec. 3-Two hudred and sixty six students whose homes are not in the state of Washington are this year enrolled in the University of Washington. Undergraduates come from as far north as Alaska and the Yukon, as far south as Flor ida and New Mexico, and as far east as New York and Massachusetts.
 Fifty four students whose homes are in foreign countries are enroll ed in the university. This is an in- crease Of ten over the number of foreign students who attended Wash ington last year and points to the fact that the university is acQulr- ing 8 national reputation.
 Japan leads in tLe number of stu dents coming from foreign lands, 2l Nipponese being registered in col Iege. all of whom are mer. Canada, which has in former years led in the number of students enrolled from other countries, comes second with seventeen students claiming homes there, nine of whom are men and eight of whom are co-eds.
 India ranks third in foreign en- rollmeut having eight students at tending college. Sweden comes next with three students. Norway has two students and Iceland and China nave one apiece.

TO TEACH COLLEGE MEN
 REAL ESTATE BUSINESS

Cleveland, Dec. S-"The idea now is to turn a college man out at his graduation equipped to make a living" said Dean Mathews, sec retary of Western Reserve Univer- sity when interviewed in reference to the new real estate" depart ment of the college-the first uni versity offering instruction in real estate business to its students. Not only will the theory of real estate selling-the old story of unearned increment which accrues to the land holder and other bookish angles of the business-be taught but practi- cal real estate dealers will tell the students how to lead a prospective buyer into a vacant lot and paint a picture to him of the prospective palatial dwellings that are to sur round it-and secure the first in staIlment.
 Alexander R. Taylor, twice presi- dent of the National Real Estate Dealers Association will be one of the leading instructors. "The lat est trend of college education is to train students to become economic ally self sustaining and that is one reason why we are offering this course", said Dean Mathews. "The establishment of schools of journal ism in nearly all the universities and colleges is one instance of it. The idea now is to turn a college man out at his graduation equipped to make a living. There is money in the real estate business; it serves a public need and college men going into it would help both the real estate business and the college man too"

DRINK WATER INSTEAD
OF TAKING PILLS

One of the best health habits
you can form is that of drinking
from two to four glasses of water
before break fast every incoming.
1t has been said that the remarka-
BILE healthfulness of the japanese
is probably due to their drinking
great quantities of water.
The following note from b, f.
Grady, ex-Congressman from New
York in the News and Observer, is
in line with the experience of the
editor of The Chronicle and many
thousands of other people. Even
doctors themselves admit that the
value of the treatment at mineral
springs is not the minerals in the
water, but the fact that the people
who go to the springs drink such
great quantities of water in order
to get their moneys worth. Here
is what Mr.. Grady says:
CATER having suffered 40 years
with constipation, and learned by
experience that the advertised REM
edies were unreliable, | suspected
that it was the water instead of the
minerals which friend, who had
spent a week at mineral spring.

ever tried. Hence, filling my

In Memory of Companion of

III ourstruggles through this 63
years our path was strewn with
briers rs well as with roses, and
not until the last sad hours did
roses bloom as fresh and fragrant
when the best of friends with pure

bereavement. But the GO years Of
companionship came to an end on
the Sth day of November, 1912,
when James Greer babe farewell

HOW TO SEND
PARCEL PACKAGES

For the reason than many pat
rens continue to- use the ordinary
postage stamps on their parcel post
packages, the postmaster desires to
explain that in order to expedite
the dispatch of such parcels where
ordinary stamps have been used,
the privilege can be granted by
stlditionalordinary stamps to make
the package FIRST class, and then
the same can be sealed.
For instance, if package weighs
two ounces and it is-sent to the
postomce with ordinary stamps, it
can become first class matter, seal
ell aud forwarded by adding two
more cents in ordinary stamps.
Ia small packages like this it
would save the necessity of remov-
ing the ordinary stamps and plae-
ing parcel post stamps on parcel.
OF course the parcel must bear
the name and address of the send
err. otherwise it can not be accepted
for mailing, and the latter prohib-
it's the use Of. ordinary postage
stamps on parcel post matter. The
only way to overcome is, as sug-
gested above, by using additional
ordinary postage stamps, making
the parcel package of first class
mail matter.
