A Few 'Don'ts"
For Any Town

Don't fail to sound it's praises
wherever you are.
Don t make your money out Of
it's citizens and spend it somewhere
else.
Don t frown on every public i'm
provement simply because it will
cost you a dollar or two.
Don t sneer at the efforts of your
fellow citizens to build up the town
but lend a hand yourself.
Don't talk a great deal about
what should be done and remain on
the back seat waiting for someone
else to do it.
Don t say the public schools are
a failure because your boy has been
upsetting the schools discipline
and has been punished.
Don t stay at home on election
day, but get out and hustle for good
men and good government.
Don't let a good local paper that
is the towns untiring champion
abandon the champion business be-
cause of lack Of deserved patronage.
Don t forget to drop your dollar
in the slot when the committee that
is after a new enterprise comes
around with the subscription list.
Don t forget that in building ur
the town, hearty cooperation, unit
ed endeavor and a spirit of get
there are what win the day. There
is no pull like a long pull and a
pull together. Exchange.

IOlOWERCOl|RT

The supreme court handed down a
decision this afternoon overruling the
decision of the lower court and re-
handing the action of Fred Harrison
vs.. Robert W. Davis to the circuit
court for a new trial. The lower
court had allowed motion for non.
suit, based on two specified grounds,
neither of which, the supreme court
held, justified non-suit.
The action is to quiet title to a tract
of land known as "Mokapu," in the
district of Koolaupoko. The plaintiff
Fred Harrison, claimed an undivided
one-half interest under a lease for a
term of 30 years. Several interesting
points in evidence and pleading were
raised in the appeal Thompson.
Wilder, Watson & Lymer represented
the plaintiff; z. c. Peters, the defen-
dant. The decision was concurred in
by all the justices, Justice Robertson,
however basins MS opinion on differ
ent grounds though arriving at the
same conclusion.

HOOD0G TRAHED
THE Hind FROM
HAWAII

Departing from Ahukini. Kauai.
during the early part OF January, the
hoodoo that took up Js unlimited
presence aboard the schooner Robert
r. Hind. during Z 109-day voyage
from Newcastle, y. S w, to Homo
lulu. continued the journey TO the Co
iumbia river.
II was. a sad tale or hardship and
l5rivatson that the little band of sail
Crs in the Hind unfolded upon gaining
the mainland February %. They
claimed that fer days they were
obliged 10 subsist on very short ra-
items. This feature OF the story of
the voyage is contradicted by Captain
Wikander, master Of the Hind, who.
While admitting that there was a
danger OF a shortage along certain
lines OF provisions, no one aboard the
schooner was in actual want.
In sailing from the Kauai port the
schooner reached the latitude Of As
toria in less than II days. Then fol-
lowed a season Of contrary winds and
for three weeks master and men were
permitted the minimum amount of
rest owing to the vessel attempting
10 beat its way up and down the
coast in q strong easterly gale. The
Hind passed Cape Flattery several
times in the endeayor to enter the
mouth of the Columbia.
In a letter received at Honolulu
yesterday, Captain Wikander states
that several tugs had been posted
along the coast to take a line from
his command At Grays Harbor atre-
mendous sea was breaking and the
attempt to bring the schooner. laden
with ballast only, 10 a safe refuge
was abandoned Almost year has
passed since the r. r. Hind cleared
the Pacific coast for New Caledonia,
The vessel is to receive a general
oyerhauling with a cleaning and re-
painting before taking lumber for an
overseas port.
