Observation-Disclosures Of Present Form

w. o. Smith in an interview with
The Advertiser yesterday stated that he
considered that "any action tending to-
wards disestablishment Of the Terrific
rial form OF government Of Hawaii In
favor of commission government would
be step backwards. = f5sf
"The government of Hawaii is the
product OF long slow period Of
growth and development, said Mr..
Smith. One Of the greatest tributes
our people have ever received was that
paid TO the founders Of the Republic
of Hawaii by the committee of distin-
9uished senators chosen by the Presi-
dent OF the United States TO prepare
an organic constitution for this Ter
Titory This committee after long and
careful study and, deliberation reported
back TO congress an Organic Act which
is an epitome Of the old Hawaiian Con-
stitution. The whole Hawaiian code
was re-enacted as the law Of the land,
the only changes being in certain minor
details TO make the law conform to
the Constitution of the United States. -
Mr.. Smith stated that il is his belief
that this community is capable Of hand
ling its own civic problems In the flu
ture as il has during the ninety years
of continuous development that haye
gone before; and, that il would be n
confession Of weakness for the citizen
shin of Hawaii to exchange their auto.

Honolulu before Christmas. good bit
before Christmas, in order to spend the
holidays in this hospitable port.
Captain Wikander has many good
friends in Honolulu, all Of whom were
looking forward to extending him a

II one should butt into the private

And TO think that the schooner had
used up its last bag Of flour before it

enough flour left to make plum-pud-
ding, much less a baking of bread. Po-
tatoes had been consumed week be-
fore the isles were sighted.

Captain Wikander started from New.
