BEAVER SECURED
OPEN SEASON HAS BEEN
ORDERED UNTIL MARCH
Alberta Hunters VIII Have Opportu-
nifty to Get Specimen of Rare Fur
bearing AnimaI-PeFmts VIII He
Issued Only In Districts Where
Beaver Is Plentiful.

Edmonton, Alta, Jan. 3.-(Special.) }
-Trappers, hunters and settlers liv-
ing north of the 55th parallel in the
province Of Alberta. beginning 10
miles north of Edmonton, have for
the first time in four years the op-
portunity to secure specimens of
beaver, now comparatively rare
fur-bearing animal. which had an
important part in the romance of the
early history of North America. His
Honor Lieutenant Governor Bulyet
with the advice of the executive coun-
Gil has ordered an open season con-
tinuing until March 10, 1915. Per-
mits will be issued only to residents
of the district, where the animals are
plentiful. The upper waters of the
Fraser and Peace rivers are looked
upon by many as the last habitat of
the beaver. South of the latitude
mentioned the closed season on bea-
yer will continue until December 10,
1915.

has served to save many lives that
otherwise might have been lost.
The private practitioner, it is true.
has suffered marked decrease in
his emergency calls through the rec
ognition of the value of ambulance
service and the case with which one
may be summoned by telephones. In
fact, the doctors phone is frequently
used to call the ambulance. Only a
few years ago the nearest physician
was called for minor conditions at all
hours of the night. Today the tele-
phone saves many long and needless
journey. Frequently, because of the
knowledge and appreciation that a
physician may be quickly summoned
to phone in case of real necessity the
doctor is not called at all, as some
transitory condition has disappeared
before morning.
In contrast to this small loss is the
gain through telephone visits in lieu
of office calls. Such phone visits may
be regarded as office visits on the
ground that if telephones did not ex-
list, it would be necessary for the pa
tient to seek advice at the office.
Undoubtedly the telephone has en-
abled patients to cling to their fam
lily physician after moving from his
original sphere of influence, whereas
if there were no telephones, such
loyalty would have been impossible.
Professor Bell and others who fol-
lowed him in developing the tele-
phone system added greatly to the
comfort, happiness, progress and well
fare of society, in all of which the
physician has enjoyed his share

CHIEF ANDRE UNDER
AN INVESTIGATION

Walla Walla- Wash. Jan. 3.-May-
or ellis yesterday reconsidered his
determination to hold a secret meet
ing to investigate the charges filed
against Acting Chief of Police Charles
Andre. and gave out the accusations
made by Rev. d. d. MacLaurin and
invited representatives of the press
to attend the investigation, which
was begun last night in the city hall.
The hearing last night was by all
three city commissioners, Mayor Gil
lis presiding and conducting the ex-
animation of witnesses. The case was
called at 1880 and adjourned at 10
o'clock until $3.50 this morning. A
large number of witness were in
attendance but the only ones test-
flying were Patrolmen Lott. Rolf,
Klot, Tabor and Buck
1t clearly appeared that the prin-
cipal matter for serious investigation
was the alleged incompatibility and
lack of cooperation between the chief
and his patrolmen. Patrolmen Rolf
and Tabor were strong in their ex-
pressions of disapproyal of the con-
duct of the acting chief. officer
Klotz thought there should be bet
ter harmony and cooperation, but
stated in answer to question on
cross examination that conditions
were about the same in that regard
under Andre as they We're during all

mony was of the negative nature. To

The public today, as it never has before, ap-
preciates the dependence of Hawaii both direct
ly and Indirectly, on its sugar industry, and
knows that what affects that industry adversely
affects the prosperity of the whole territory.
1t is perhaps not unnatural just at this time
to assume that proposed tariff legislation is the
root of all our anticipated ills, yet two other fac
tors have an important bearing on the immediate
future Of the sugar industry present prices of
raw sugar and shortage in crops.
SUGAR PRICES
For the ten-year period ending December
3lst, 1912, the average New York price of raws
was LOB cents per pound or 5000 per ton; for
the fiveyear period ending at the same time,
ALI cents per pound or $S234 per ton; last
years average price was 4.1916 cents per pound
or $S3S3 per ton. The first five months of 1913
show an average price of but 3.44S cents per
pound or $6s96 per ton Prices have dropped
rapidly since the first of the year, and todays
price is $17.43 per ton under the average price
of 1872
While the average cost of raising and market
ing Hawaiian sugar is $4,000 per ton, on ma
jority of the plantations the cost greatly ex-
ceeds this figure
1918 CRDP
The total tonnage of all plantations last year
was 595,25S TONS OF this amount forty-six
plantations produced 549, 433 tons. These same
plantations estimate az shortage in this years
crop of 62,913 tons. Thus it will be seen that
on the basis of the average price received for the
first five months of this year, viz: $6S.96, and
taking into consideration the estimated shortage
in output for this crop, there will be total re-
duction in receipts from the sale of sugar this
year of approximately $12,0OO,OOO as compared
with last year.
TARIFF
The present full duty on sugar is 1855 cents
per pound or 1870 per ton. Out of a total con,
sumption in the United States last year of g.
41S2 long tons but LOG $50 tons paid this duty
The amount is therefore negligible The effect
i've duty is the Cuban of 1.34s cents per pound
or S2696 per ton and under this duty Cubassent
in 1,664,S63 tons.
If there were no duty and the price of sugar
were reduced by the amount of the present duty,
what would be the result?
For the ten-year period above mentioned the
average New York price would have been but
$53.64 per ton; for the fiyeyear period but 500
SO; last year $56.S7; and for the first five
months of this year $500.
With sugar costing Hawaii not less than an
average of $50 per ton marketed, it is not q diff
ficult matter to figure what a % per cent or 90
per cent cut in the tariff or free sugar means.
DIVIDENDS
Dividends were paid last year to over 9,011
