PHONE SYSTEM
LIKE HONOLULU
Worster, Telephone Expert, Has
Made Inspection of Local
Plant; is Pleased

Honolulu's automatic telephone sys-
tenn has attracted the attention OF
syndicate Of San Francisco capitalists
headed by Eric Lindb1oom, an Alaska
millionaire The syndicate has sent
William bennett Worster, a telephone
expert, a. this city to make a thorough
inspection OF the local system, and re-
port az to how successful it is here.
LindbIoom and lis associates plan TO
install the system at Nome, If they
buy the existing company there, a
manual system.
II find that your phone system here
works very well, except that it has to
be watched carefully. especially dur
ing wet weather. says Mr.. WOrster,
who is staying at The Roselawn. Il
will not make any recommendations
TO MIR. Lindbloom. but simply turn in
a report covering the results of my
inspection"
Manager F. G. Hummel Of the Mu-
tual Telephone Company showed Mr..
Worster the equipment Of the local
plant, and has taken him around the
city on tour OF inspection
The chief reason why the syndicate
wishes TO change the Nome system
and it's subsidiaries from the present
hello girl method is the expense OF
women operators. The company has
to LAY from $50 to 800 a month for
Operators, whereas in California sal
aries paid them range from $25 to $40
a month, except for chief operators.
Mr.. Worster said he believes the
automatic system would work well in
Alaska because, although the weather
Is very cold in the winter, the humid
ity and dampness which make trouble
for the system here are absent, as
the relative humidity is very low.
Il am returning to San Francisco
on the Ventura next Tuesday" stated
Mr. Worster.

HONOLULU lacks
CIVIC PRIDE IS
VIEW OF VISITOR

People of Honolulu fail to pull to-
gether; this is one of the things that
/ have found out in my short stay
here" said DIR. H. J. Conner of Duluth,
Mimi, in talk before the members
of the Commercial Club today at noon.
You have a wonderful location, so
why not have a wonderful city,, If
you can not find a man here who
knows how to make good roads, send
back to the mainland and get some
one who does know how.
Honolulu lacks civic pride. know
that you have a wonderful climate
and wonderful sugar industry, but
these things should not rule the stu
alton. Perhaps you can say that If
we do not like it we will not have to
come here, but that isn't going to be
a benefit. Tourists are always a big
asset to any section of the country,
and ] believe you should encourage
bringing them to Honolulu.
Il have travelled considerably, AMI
| must say that / have visited hun
dreds of places that can boast Of bet
ter roads than Honolulu. / may not
strike popular chord when l say
these things, but believe that Ger
tain interests should not control
things. Don't pull apart-pull to-
gether, and then you will be able to
boast of your CITY,"

Wilder Will LET
PRESIDENT KNOW
OF HIS CHARGES
Governor Pinkham Continues
to ignore Allegations At
lacking His Veracity

That Governor Pinkham has DELHI
eTately made false statements 10 at
least three local Democrats; that he
has violated his oath of office by de-
handing and receiving undated reslg-
nations from persons appointed by
him, and that he authorized the lille
gal expenditure Of public funds, is a
summary OF charges brought against
the chief executive by Arthur A. Viii
der in a communication dated Febru-
airy >.
If Governor Pinkham lies down in
the matter and refuses to answer my
letter, he'll hear from Washington,
Judge Wilder said today. 'I'll com
municate with the President and with
the secretary of the interior and find
out why he ignores these charges. He
refused to answer the open letter
which ] wrote him while in San Fran
cisco. He authorized a statement to
the newspapers that the letter needed
no answer"
Governor Pinkham says that he will
neither answer or discuss Judge Will
der's latest letter.
The concluding paragraph In Judge
Wilder's letter reads as follows:
Notwithstanding your playful re-
marks about paying no attention to
my letters, now notify you that
am ready to meet you on the fOregO-

told them nothing. Already they had asked
the Little Red Hen, but she only said; IT'S
too high from the ground, it's too high from
the ground"
lack had searched many places for a way
OF escape, and at last he found heap OF
calves skins in a corner. He cut them inN
strips and tied the strips together. And now
said he, I'VE have rope to get US down from
the tower
Then when the hounds and the cats were
dashing up the stairway they let the rope down
to the ground Jin put the Little Red Hen
under her arm and put the Chain OF Silence
around her neck and went down. Jack put the
Bird Councillor under his arm and the Com
manding Trumpet round his neck and went
down after her. And now said Jin, how
will we get through the wood before the Giant
and his hounds begin to chase us?'
1t was then that the Bird Councillor spoke
to them FOR the first time. Il counsel only
those who can plan for themselves said he
And if you could not have got out Of the
tower by your own devices would have said
nothing to you Listen to me now. This is
Sowain night, and the Pooka is in the wood.
Take the Pookas horse and ride through the
wood and across the river that is the boundary
OF the Giants domain
And where will We find the Pooka's horse"
asked Jack.
Follow this stream and you will meet the
Pooka coming" said the Bird Councillor.
They followed the strearl-Jack Jillln, the
Little Red Hen and the Bird Councillor. Soon
they heard the trampling and the painting OF
a horse. Up il came, great black horse with
sweeping name. Halt Pooka." said Jack in
a commanding voice.
The Pooka rides wild horse, but he is
tmd fellow himself. On Sowain night-the
night before the real short days begin-he
rides through the countryside, touching any
fruit that remains so that it may bring no
taste into winter. The backberres that wero
good TO eat the day before are no good on
November Day, because the Pooka touched
them as he rode by the night before. What
else he does on his nights ride no one really
knows. He is timid fellow as | told you,
and he hopes that his big black horse and the
sound OF its tramping and painting he goes
by will brighten the people out OF his way. for
he is in great fear of being seen. Halt,
Pooka!" said Jack And the Pooka halted the
black horse and slipped down to his tail
Jack held the snortng horses head, and
Jillin got on his back. Then he gave her the
Bird Councillor and the Commanding Trumpet

took the Chain OF Silence and the Command
ing Trumpet and left them at the window.
The Bird Councillor came to them, and Jllin
put her hands on him and brought him into
the tower.
Now they had the Three Treasures that King
Atlas had sent to the Kings OF the Northern
World-the Silver Chain OF Silence, the Com
handing Trumpet and the Bird Councillor
But what good were the treasures to them
when they could not leave the tower and when
they would be torn to pieces by the Giants
hawks at the first light?
oh" cried jillin, but the Bird Councillor
will tell us how to escape! That Is what he
does; he gives such counsel that any one who
takes it comes safely out Of every pass. Then
they questioned the Bird Councillor, but he

and Jumped up on the horse. They heard the
hounds baying behind them and the shouts OF
the Giant. Away, Pooka, away" Jack shouted,
and the horse started and went through the
wood like the wind of March.
But quickly as they went the Giant came
more quickly behind them. When they were
in the hollow he was the height and when
they were on the height he was in the hollow.
And his two hounds went quicker than the
Giant and were gaining upon the Pookas
horse.
oh, what shall we do now? said Jiln
to the Pooka. who was hanging on to tho
horses tail, his little face all twisted up with
fear
Put your hand into my horses ear and fling
behind what you find there" said the Pooka,
his teeth chattering. Jack put his hand into
the horses right ear and found twig of wild
ash He flung it behind them. Instantly
tangled wood sprang up They heard the
Giants hounds yelping as they tried to force
their way through it. They heard the Giant
shouting as he pushed his way through the
brakes and the branches. His rush was stopped
for while. and Jack, Jillin and the Pooka
went on like the wind of March But again
the Giant began to gain on them. When they
were in he hollow he was on the height. and
when they were on the height he was in the
hollow. His hounds came on quicker than he
and soon Jllin felt their hot breath behind
her. "Oh, Pooka, what shall we do now?'
said Jlin.
Put your hand into my horses ear and
fling behind what you find there" said the
Pooka. his teeth chatterng with fear as he
held on to his horses tail Jack put his hand
into the horses left ear and found bubble
Of water He flung it behind them. Instantly
it spread out into lake, and as they rode on
the lake waters spread out behind them. Hts
hounds dashed into the water but the Giant
stayed by the waters edge. His march was
stopped there
Jack and Jilln, the Bird Councillor and the
Little Red Hen rode on on the Pookas horse,
with the Pooka hanging on behind them.
They crossed the river that marked the bounds
OF the Giants domain, and then they were
safe. Jack pulled up the horse and jumped
to the ground. He lifted down Jillin with tho
Little Red Hen, the Bird Councillor, the Chain
Of Silence and the Commanding Trumpet. The
Pooka sprang forward and whispered into his
horses car Instantly it struck fire out of its
hoofs and sprang down the side OF a hill.
From that day to this they never saw sight
Of the Pooka nor of his big black. snorting
and foaning horse And only one story now
remains 70 be told about Jin and Jack, the
Giants servants.
ITO he continued)
