SWEDEN MAY ENTER WAR
ON SIDE OF TEUToNs.

Sweden may join the list of
smaller nations fighting on side
of the central empires within a
week, according to information
which reached Senator Albert b.
Fall, at Washington, Monday
through private sources. Decla-
ration of war will be made upon
Great Britain and ON Russia, Sen.
Falls advices state. Actual hos
Utilities, it is said, will be begun
with an attack on Russia through
Finland.
THE real reason for Sweden's
declaring war, explained Senator
Falls, "Will be found 10 lie in
the repeated efforts of Great
Britain TO force Sweden TO do
this very thing. However great
bitterness against Russia may be
in Sweden, recent developments in
the British blockade of Sweden
have aroused the Swedes TO an
even more bitter hostility against
England. From the outbreak of
the war Sweden have been ac-
lively favorable to Germany and
has done everything in her power
TO aid Germany.
This friendship with Germany
has been due less 10 any inherent
feeling of kinship than to a fear
that if the allies win Sweden will
stand in danger of conquest at
the hands OF a victorious Russia.
The wrongs suffered by Finland
under Russian rule have given
rise to the belief in Sweden that
Finland would offer no resistance
to the passage of Swedish troops
through Finland heading for an
attack on Russia.
This antipathy against Russia
has been capitalized recently by
Great Britain whose difficulties
over the matter of the so-called
Illegal blockade of neutral ports
has given her no ineonsiderable
uneasineSs. Within the past three
months some member of the Brit
ish cabinet awoke TO the fact
that if only war could be provOk-
ed between Sweden and Great
Britain, the whole matter of the
sea blockade would straighten it
|self automatically"

DEAD FOR 20 YEARS.
~ ..=@. He COMES TO LIFE

Memorial tablets will be torn down
and discarded by the Tanaka family
Of Kumomoto prefecture, Japan, when
letter steaming towards them on
the Chiyo Maru reaches them. For
in the letter is the information that
the dead has come to life-that H.
Tanaka of Hawaii is the same who
left Kumomoto 25 years ago, and has
been mourned as dead for 90 years.
Five years after he arrived here
Tanaka ceased 70 write to his people
and they gave him up as dead. With
appropriate ceremonial they erected a
tablet to his memory and put on the
garments of mourning. A little while
ago they heard of the rich H. Tanaka,
a contractor on a Puma plantation,
and wrote to the Japanese consul here
asking if he was of their family. Now
the consul, H. Arita, has written back
assuring them that the long lost has
been found.

Cases Against Real Estate
Man Arrested Saturday

Charged in four complaints with
acting as an immigrant agent without
a license. and with having attempted
to induce certain persons to leave the
territory for employment elsewhere,
%. A. Steven, who recently headed an
exodus Of local Portuguese to Cali
fornia, was aIraigned before Circuit
Judge Ashford today, the case having
been transferred from district court
He was represented in court r)day
by Attorney W J. Robinson. At re,
quest of counsel, the matter was con-
tinued until next Wednesday morninS
for plea. -
One of the complaints charges
Steven with having acted as an immi-
grant agent without license. The
other three charge that, on certain
dates, he attempted to induce T. Ca
sanes, Juan Sabran and A. Obligar.
Filipinos, to leave their present en-
ployers on promises of employment
outside the territory. Bond has been
fixed at $3.50, which covers all the
cases. u.s..
Steven was arrested Saturday night

Farm Cornn putting up the money. "
Word reached the city attorneys
department shortly before the arrest
that the auctioneer had band of Fill
pinos recruited and ready to leave
with him on the Great Northern the

cruiting of labor. H.. +.

SINGLE MOVE REVIVED

A political rumor published this
morning reviyes an old story to the
effect that Delegate kuhio would re-
tire from national politics to run for

for delegate to r. w. Single. The
rumor also said that Mayor Lane
would be a candidate for sheriff this
fall. ..~.. Iii. ~: -.
For several years past this Kuhio-
Single move has been one of the
most persistent of rumors, but the
wiseaeres say now that it is as far
away as ever, inasmuch as Kuhio de-
clines 10 support any candidate for
delegate who Is not of Hawaiian or
part Hawaiian blood. The rumor that
Lane would be candidate for sher-
in is several months old, but has been
generally denied since it was first
launched on the political waves.
Dame Runor is also busy with pros
pective candidates for. delegate.
Among those mentioned are Fl. L. HoI-

E. r. Cameron, general deputy reVe-
nue. collector. who has been stationed
with Collector J. F. Haley N Eon1lu-
la since last May: this mor1ins eceiv-
ed a pleasant surprise from Washing
ton in the form Of com mission AZ
pointing him United States Revenue
Inspector This is one of tile most de-
sirable positions in the internal re9e-
nue. service. Though for the pas Few
weeks it has been known that MIR.
Cameron's excellent work in Hawaii
had earned recognition from tie gov
eminent ii vas not expected thgJ mis-
appointment to his new position
would come at such an early date.
1t is believed that Mr.. Cameron is
the youngest man in the internal reve-
nue. holding the position to which he
has just been commissioned. Politics
has not entered into his selection. He
has been in the revenue service since
March, 1912, and has worked his way
to his present position through eff
cheney entirely. During the ten
months he has been in Hawaii he has
been called upon to deal with practi-
cally all of the large taxpayers of the
territory, often finding it. necessary
to materially increase their assess
ments. Thus far there has been moth
ing but praise for his uniform ceur-
teSy and marked ability as an account
ant and expert on the income tax law.
Nothing has given me more pleas
ure s.nce assuming office than the
news this mornin gof Mr.. Cameron's
well-earned promotion" said Collect
or j. F. Haley this morning. Il have
been in daily touch with Mr. Cameron
and his work since he came here last
atay. In that time he has been called
upon TO pass upon delicate subjects
touching upon the assessment of tax
payers for back taxes. but ! have yet
to hear of any one who has been dis
satisfied with his findings or who has
had anything but praise for the uni
form courtesy he has shown them
l. am in a position to state that Mr..
Cameron's deserved promotion has not
been brought about through politics,
but was made BY Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue Osborn, strictly upon
merit. | do not know what the de-
partment contemplates doing with Mr.
Cameron but 1 trust that it will find
It possible to continue him at work
in this Territory until he has finished
the task which brought him here last
