SUBMARINE FLEET
NOW IN HONOLULU
A COAST DEFENSE

While Secretary Of the Navy Jo.
sephus Daniels was before the house
committee on naval affairs, about ten
days ago, he was asked by Representa-
tive Butler II he thought hostile feet,
headed for the Pacific Coast, would
Pass Manila and Honolulu without re,
dueing these points. He said: II Ger.
tainly think they would try to reduce
them first. y When asked how far from
the Pacific Coast the nearest coaling
station not owned by America Is
located, the secretary replied, BE,
tween 5000 and 5000 miles
These questions came up during the
course Of a discussion regarding the
defenses of the Pacific Coast. Repre-.
sentative Stevens of California asked
the secretary IL he thought these a.,
lenses were adequate for war. Tie
answer was mo- The secretary said,
however, that one of the purposes for
building the Panama Canal was TO en-.
able the department 10 make speedy
transfer Of warships into the Pacific,
and he emphasized the great necessity
for dreadnoughts.
Representative Stevens asked, Don 4
You think an enemy could deliver q
very severe blow TO the Pacific Coast
before we eould get ships from the
Athnticf' 10Eisg
An enemy replied the secretary
would have to run the gauntlet OF
onr submarines in the Philippines and
Hawaii, and then be obstucted by the
vessels now on the Pacific long enough
for the stronger feet to arrive. HI
added he would be against dividing
the Atlantic feet now to augment tbs
Pacific protection,
- in ease Of war, do yon not believ,
there should be Sufficient battleshipl
therefr
"With these new battleships com
ing In commission he replied, ''w,
should be able TO have some Of then
on the Pacific at least part Of the tim,
mot division Of the feet--but In SONS
way so as not TO leave either coast
unprotected by battleships.,
The secretary finally agreed the Pa
cifc Coast was not now so well pro
teeted as the Atlantic The depart
ment had not contradted for building
dreadnoughts on the Pacific Coast, he
said, because there was no yard tier,
ready to build them.

Honolulu is expanding and baseball
players are following the footsteps OF
their brethren over in the mainland
in many ways. During the last week
plans were laid for the organization
of players fraternity on The same

the ball players OF Oahu together for
mutual protection, with set OF bylaws
that win help bring the game to the
high standard il deserves The men
behind the proposition are working on
the scheme now, and expect TO give
the public ain outline on their policy

Worth Aiken Willing To Cooperate
For Purpose Of Making
Excursion Success

The people of Maui are taking an
active interest in the Trail and Noun
tain exploration party that viii hike
through Halealsala on New Years Day.
Worth Aiken has written to the
club stating that special rate Of az.
teen dollars head will be made for
those who wish TO go up IIaleakala
from the Kahului side by auto and
horseback. as there are ah0at thirty
women In the party, probably quite a
number will take advantage of this. +
In his lettel Mr.. Aiken says:
81 win make the members Of your
party rate Of fifteen dollars each for
the trip from Paia TO the summit and
back again TO Paia, spending one night
ON the summit. OF course | would sup
ply the horses and automobiles. J
would want to know as far in advance
as possible Just how many are going
TO make the trip, so as to be sure thore
are enough horses, food, provisions, etc.,
TO 20 around. Also that horses are
properly shod, 50 let me know as soon
as possible. y
This would mean that for those mere
Nv going to the summit Of Haleakala
crater by auto and horseback, the cost
would be from Honolulu back 70 Homo
lulu about $25. This party would have
to leave the Claudine at midnight Of
January 81, at Lahaina, TO take q
moonlight ride across the island u
wailnku, where the night would be
spent at the Witilnku Hotel, and tbs
next day about noon the trip TO Halea
kala would be begun, and the might
spent on the summit. For few dol
! lars extra, those who wish may be TAX

ROAD COMMITTEE
CALLS FOR FUNDS

The recent campaign for the Colum-
bia river highway cost, in actual cash
expense, about 500. To defray this
the executive committee of the Good
Roads Association has decided to call
for popular subscription in any
amount from % cents to S25.
Many Of the advocates of the high
way intimated to the committee that
while they were unable to do any of
the campaign work, they desired to as
sist financially whenever the occasion
offered There are undoubtedly many
others who feel the same way. The
committee believes that, although the
amount could easily be raised by per-
sOna solicitation, it is best to afford
everyone an opportunity to contribute.
The campaign was characterized by
such a generous spirit of personal sac
ritice and a willingness to work at any
and all hours that the matter of rails
ing this expense fund should meet with
prompt response.
For every dollar Of real money ex-
pended there was at least 500 worth of
gratutous work gladly given. Scores
VI ulclHbtIo VI NllS bOUu hUdub hbbUClh-
tion and the Commercial club worked
day and night for weeks, constantly at
the call of the executive and financial
committees. Dozens of automobiles
were continuously in service, with never
a murmur from the owners as to ex-
pense of wear and tear Business men
and farmers alike devoted whole days
at time to the work. with never a
thought as to how their own affairs
might suffer. Such was the spirit
which pervaded the atmosphere of the
whole campaign, resulting in the great
est and most spontaneous outburst of
popular approval ever witnessed in Or
egOn.
We are confident the same spirit will
greet our appeal for funds with which
to meet the actual expenses. We would
like to raise this fund at once, that the
various bills may be paid without fur
ther delay. To do this we would ask
all contributors to leave their contribu-
tions not later than Saturday of this
week at any Of the local banks or with

Going at it Right
Editorial from Portland JournsD

Editorial from Portland JOurna)
In their decision to employ compe-
tent engineer TO lay out the most prac-
tical highway through Hood River val
ley the property owners are proceed
ing along rational lines. A good high
way is not built for day, but for all
time, sand money spent in preliminary
surveys is well expended. The few
thousand dollars spent in engineering
is saved many times over in construc-
tiOn.
This is well exemplified in MultnO-
nah county in the building of the CO.
lumbia highway. As the result of
capable engineering the county has
saved thousands of dollars and secured
a road that will set standard for the
future.
Roadmaking, like any other construc-
tiOn, is business in itself. If the
county or state we're to undertake a
public building without first having
competent architect draw up plans
there weuld be a great outcry. Why
should not the same rule apply IN road
work?
a.The present need of good roads in
Oregon would not be so pressing if
more attention had been given in the
past to the engineering feature. If
the roads had been properly located in
the first place there would not be the
necessity of lowering grades, straight
ening deadly curves and installing new
bridges,

CALIFORNIA ROAD STATISTICS

Californians must consider roads
worth while. If they were not a very
great asset, do you think they would
eXpend any such enormous sums on
their construction as the records show.
Yet California, from the scenic stand
point, is inferior to Oregon Oregon
must capitalize her scenery.
In 1912 the county of Los Angeles,
Calf, appropriated a fund, especially
to build through highways, of the sum
Of So, 100000
In 1913 Orange county appropriated d
81, 200, 600 for such work. Orange
county's largest town. Santa Ana, has
but 0,00O population.
In l9l4 Riverside county appropri-
ated the sum of 81, 100000 for better
roads.
From Los Angeles to Riverside, a
distance Of 60 miles, concrete high.

mission has abandoned all waterbound

now being built Of oilbound macadam,
asphalt or concrete, the latter having
the preference.

WILL THE CREAMERY BE A SUCCESS?

We hope that the new Hood River
creamery will be a success. The Hood
River valley needs such an institution.
Every orchardist should not only have
a COW for his own home use, but about
two more. the cream from which should
be furnished the new creamery.
But will the new institution he
success Not unless the growers of
the valley and those who have taken
stock in the new concern put into prac
tce cooperation. Now that the cream
cry building is rising, every man who
promised cows to the concern should
get busy and furnish them Even then
there will not be enough cows. And
unless the concern has a sufficient
number Of milch COWS some 40O-t the
creamery will be operated at loss
Now is the time for the apple grower,
by all means, to get busy and get the
extra COWS.
But even after the creamery is
started difficulties a plenty are going
to se met with. Outside concerns will
probably offer more for the cream than
the local creamery can afford These
inducements will be made, in order
that the product can be secured at the
purchasers own price later on. An
effort will be made to throw the
creamery in the discard, VIII ere so
many cooperative ventures have landed
in the past But with the owners of
cows supporting their cooperative plant
by loyalty and by the use of the prod
uct in local markets, the Hood River
creamery can be made a profitable in
stitution to all concerned in Hood
River.
The management of the creamery. as
they no doubt have planned, must turn
out product Of excellent quality, one
that will deserve the patronage of all
local people, for we are going to find
that cooperation is going to be put to
the test.
The subscribers of capital stock
should pay their assessments. The
members Of the board Of directors are
in earnest and the creamery is really
under way
