from New York, March 4, For the
Panama Canal from the canal she will
take a northerly course TO the. Arctic
circle, and from there she will go to
the Antarctic, spending some time in
research work in these waters. Her
voyage will last two years.
The Carnegie Is operated by the Car.

long voyage is to determine the origin
and distribution of tho carth's mag

The yacht is an auxiliary brigantine,
and she was placed in commission in
April 1909, Her commander is Captain
Aur. She has made many long cruises,
the first Of which was to the North Of
Newfoundland In June, 1910, she
sailed from New York On cruise which
carried her zig tagging about the world.

Power Of Trustees
The alternative to this suggestion
would be to allow the October coupons
to stand unpaid until a permanent solu-
tion of the railroad s future is ar.
rived at. ~.
& II the october coupons are paid, there
will then be six clear months in which
to evolve plan for the future. r.
II the October coupons are not paid,
then, under the trust deeds securing
the two issues Of bonds, the trustees
may, in their discretion, either take
possession and operate the road them
selves, or they may institute foreelos-
IRE proceedings and sell the property.
The are not required to take either
step, however, but may permit the rail
road company to continue operations
under its own management.
Since the subject was submitted to
the representatives of the bondholders
they have held several conferences
Yesterday they decided unanimously to
recommend that the company borrow
the money necessary to pay the 0cto.
Der coupons, as above out ined. This
will then give the hOndholders and all
interested ample time in which to come
to decision as to what Is best ia be
done.
Bondholders Represented
The representatives of the bondhbld-
ers also appointed two committees to
represent the holders of the respective
bond issues, as follows:
Representing 1901 bonds--J. r. Gait
of the Hawaiian Trust Company, A. T.
Judd Of the Guardian Trust Company
and the Bishop Estate, A. Lewis Jr. of
the Bank of Hawaii and J. Waterhouse
of Alexander & Baldwin.
Representing the 1909 bOnds-E. IL

I. Spalding Of the Bank of Honolulu
r. w. Shingle Of the Henry Waterhouse
Trust Gonpasy and A. w. T. Bottomley
Of Bishop Co.. - .' =
The object now primarily sought is
to work out a satisfactory permanent
solution Of the company.'s financial fu
ture, under which the interests of the
bondholders will be safegdarled and
the operation of the road continued
without interruption. 1t is believed that
such plan can be evolved.
As soon as decision in this respect
is arrived at by the committees above
named, it will be submitted to tho
bondholders as a whole. W.

independent consideration, with a
view to devising a course Of
action which would preserve the
interests of the bondholders and
at the same time avoid the neces-
sfty for foreclosure. ....-t
The present financial status of the
railroad company Is rs follows; 8
There are two bond issues. One,
dated 1901, for $lO00,000, secured by
a first mortgage on the O!aa and Puma
and terminal divisions. The First
American Trust and Savings Company
is the trustee for the bondholders un-
der this mortgage Na.' ..
The other Dond issue is dated 1D09,
and is for S3,5OO,OOO. 1t is secured by
n first mortgage on the Hamakua diyi.
sion and all the other property Of the
company not covered by the first mort
gage; and, subject to the 1901 mort
gage, covers also all of the property
included in the 1901 mortgage. The
Bishop Trust Company is the trustee
under the 1909 mortgage. . -.
The interest rate on both issues Is
six per cent per annum. .3'.' &.
The 1909 mortgage was intended as
a "refunding mortgage" an issue of
$4.500,000 Of bonds having been pro
vided for, 100000 of which are be.
ing held in the treasury of the company
With which to take up the 1901 issue,
thus eliminating the dual issue and in
forests and consolidating the bonded
debt into one issue of $4,500,00O.
This consolidation proposition has
never been acted upon.
Question Of Borrowing
The interest coupons under both bond
issues coming. due October / last,
amounting to $l35,00O, were not paid.
Under the terms of both trust mbrt.
cages, the railroad company has six
months grace in which to pay these
coupons, until the lapse Of which time
there. is no technical '"defsult,"
The railroad company has, therefore,
until April / in which TO pay the in.
terest coupons which were due last DC.
tOber. If these are paid before ApriI
l, the company will then have six
months further. time within which to
pay the interest coupons which come
due on April l. -
One of the questions submitted to
the representatives of the bondholders
is whether 1t is not advisable for the
company to borrow the sum of $l35, 0OO

PARCEL POST EXPORTS.

The postofficc department is reported to be
working out plan for the futherancc of ouf eX-
port trade through Il radical extension Of the for
eign parcel post service. The details nave not
been made public, but it is understood that the
plan contempates taking off the present size and
weight restrictions and making it possible to
mail abroad anything that can now be mailed
from one point to another in the United States.
The purpose is to bring the American manu-
facturer into direct relations with the forcigl
merchant or consumer. Hitherto the biggest
manufacturers have had an advantage in the cX-
port trade because they alone could afford the
expense of developing it. The object of the gov
ernmcnt in this NV projct is said to give every
body an equal chance at the foreign markets,
just as the domestic parcelpost has already scrv-
ed to cqualize opportunities in our own markets.
1t looks like an admirable move. The federal
trade commission is understood to be directly in
tcrcsted in it, along with the general promotion
Of export trade, although it was supposed to be
primarily created to "regulatc" business. MAY
be business docsn' { need so much regulating any
more as people thought. Anyhow, il is well to
have the various administrative departments of
the government cooperating III Il campaign to
win all possible legitimate advantages abroad
for American business, and in fostering bust
ness democracy in both our export and domestic
commerce.

All such work is now done by machinery on an

THE SUCCESS OF THE FAIR.

Who said Maheur County couldn' get togcth-

the true conditions. The unqualified success
of the County Fair last week is surely enough
demonstration that this County can pull togcth-
en-, and in manner that would make good
many much smaller communities and larger
ones too ashamed.
For the great success of the 1913 Malheur
Couny Fair was undoubtedly due to the efforts
of the County as whole Not district shirbcd
their share of the work. Not community that
didnot send either displays or visitors. And
many of them sent almost unlimited numbers of
both
To show that the success of the Fair was not
purely local deciion, but was so proclaimed by
men well versed on the standards of County
Fairs in this and other states, mention should be
made of the great enthusiasm of j. W. Brewer
of the Chamber of Commerce of Portland, and of
Ill. III. Weatherspoon, District Fruit Inspector
Both men have attended practically every Coun-
ty Fair given in this state within the past few
years. And when they say the Malhcur County
Fair is not surpassed by amy, it means whole
lot to the people of this county who have work
ed so hard to make this fair good one
Mr.. Weatherspoon not only compared this
fair with other fairs of other counties, but COM
pared it with the fairs of this county of pre-
vious years. He has been one of the Judges in
the agricultural and horticultural sections for
the past three years lIh says there has been
much improvement in these exhibits each year,
but perfection was not reached until this year,
He says that the displays made here this season
could be excelled by none, Not only were the
hest specimens of fruit selected for exhibition,
but expert knowledge of how to build the dis
plays, was shown.

COUNTRY LIFE REVIVING.

Country life is dying in America because of

of his life declared speaker in the Internal

But the gentleman need not be So pessmistic
He is looking at the past rather than the present
and future, and pondering the census returns of
1900 and 1910 when he might be figuring out the
change that 1920 will reveal.
The old-fashioned farmer was indeed slave
of drudgery, and his wife IA victim of lonesome
ness. But those phases of agricultural life are
passing
Year by year improved farm machinery and
better methods lessen the toll The older gener-
alton of farmers scattered manure over the fields

If the exhibits at this fair could all be boxed
and shipped to San Francisco and set up at the
Panama-Paciic Exposition just as they appear
cd here they would undoubtedly attract great
attention. Many who have been to the Frisco
fair, and who attended the fair here, state that
there is nothing in the big exposition to out
class it,
The Malhcur County Fair certainly has the
undivided support of the entire county, and the
officials realize that i'm order to keep the fair
continued success, this cooperation must con
tnuc. The "squarc deal to all" policy has been
firmly established. There are no favored com
munitics. At county fair time all troubles and
differences are forgotten and the whole county

The sooner we get over the notion that the
