der various flags In, South America.

him in Honolulu in 1893. when the
first rebellion here was in progress.
Johnson enlisted and served with the
revolutionary forces.
Was In Hawaii's Army.
When Dole became president of the
Republic. Johnson remained in the
regular army Of the Republic of Ha-
wall He was a private. He served
as long as the army existed. and
when, in 1897. the United States flag
was raised. he was Captain Johnson,
and as a captain took his place in the
National Guard of Hawaii, which was
formed from the regular army. He
held the record for craftsmanship in
the National Guard for 10 years. All
of his six discharges give his service
and character as Excellent"
Under the territorial govern
ment johnson became supervisor Of
the roads of the whole territory of
Hawaii. He built los miles of macad-
am roads around Honolulu, most Of
which are in good condition now. and
was commended for his work by an
act OF the legislature. When he left
this position he became manager Of
the Pahoa Lumber Company, ...
The investigation of the record of
Johnson by the United States govern
ment brought Gen. Johnson to the at.
tention of relatives in Russia through
the use of his Russian name.
Was Pardoned BY Russia.
As consequence he was sent
pardon for his offense while a naval
cadet. and offered the position OF
Russian consul at Honolulu. The POI
sition he declined, but he kept the
pardon, He stated to friends that his
reason for declining the position was
that he would have to swear ale

and he preferred to retain his~Ameri-
can citizenship.
On the showing of the present in
spection, which will probably official
ly credit the National Guard of Ha-
waii with 1000 men at least, the or
ganized militia of the territory will
rank sixth in the United States. Ahead
of the Hawaii militia in the list are:
New York, 1869; Pennsylvania, H.
OPS; Ohio. 5796; Massachusetts, 1868,
and Illinois, $3.50.
California, which has but $40 men
in the National Guard. ranks Just be-
low Hawaii Fifty states and terri
tories have organized militia, so Ha-
wall is ahead of A commonwealth.
In proportion to population Hawaii
is so far ahead of any other state that
there is no comparison.

Not the least remarkable feature OF
the rapid development of the National
Guard OF Hawaii is Brig.-gen. Samuel
] Johnson. II was largely the energy
Of Gen. Johnson that brought to the
Guard in a few months almost 1900
officers and men. 49,.
Gen. Johnson has lived in Hawaii
90 years. and has served in the army
or militia from Immediately after his
landing here.
In 1903. when President William II.
Taft, then secretary Of war, reviewed
the National Guard troops in the Capt.
toll grounds. Gen. Johnson was a cap
tain, commanding Company r. or
this company board OF United States
army officers, who made an inspec-
tion just previous to Mr.. Taft's visit.
reported to the war department:
The equipment of Company F is in
excellent condition. and the drill sup
erb. Gandidly, the board has never
seen II equaled." The report was sign
ed by Capt. +. D'A. Pierce and Lieuts.
Robinson and Newton. .....
Secretary Taft, after he had seen
the troops drill. sent for Capt. john
son and told him he intended to re-
commend him for commission in the
regular army. Urged by friends to ac-
cept the commission II il was Offered,
Capt. Johnson applied TO the war de-
partment.
= He did not receive commission be-
cause of some technicalities, but while
considering whether Johnson should
be made an officer OF the regular
army, the war department placed the
facts Il had in regard TO him in the
hands OF the Intelligence Bureau, with
instructions to get the whole record
Of his past With the assistance of
the Russian charge d'affaires. John.
sons life, in and out OF Russia, and
every detail recorded in the war de-
partment. Since the full report was
filed the war department has been
especially friendly to Johnson, and it
was a suggestion from the war de-
partment that led to his appointment
as commander of the National Guard
when Il was decided to rejuvenate
that organization.
Gen. Johnson, even to his most in
innate friends, has never told OF his
adventures before he came to Hawaii.
But the war department recently
gave out information which led to the
publication of some salient points of
his career. The facts about John
sons life and family, with names left
out for several reasons, are given here
as the records OF the war department

ground for hope that at the end of

TRADEMARK REFORM IN
ARGENTINA BENEFICIAL
(AssocIated Press Correspondence. !,

Buenos Aires, A. r., May a.
American manufacturers have been
put on much firmer footing in Ar
gentina as result of reforms in
trademark legislation which were dis
cussed by the, international high com
mission. No longer will 1t be posi-
BILE, 1t Is hoped, for a salesman or
agent to register the trademark of Il
well-known product and then close
the market to the manufacturer.
Relying on the protection of the
courts, many INSCRIPTIONS persons
began to register well-known trade
marks in use in the countries from
which Argentina importh her goods,
whenever they found that the owners
of the mark had not complied with
the legal requirements for registra-
ton.
Or. Eleodoro 14obos, chief of that
section Of the Argentine delegation
which discussed trademarks, recon-
mended that national legislation pro-
vide stated time for the registration
of foreign marks when their owners
can prove that they have been previ-
ously registered in their country Of
origin, 1t being incumbent upon them
TO prove bad faith in cases where the
mark in dispute has been registered
here. Protection of the honest trader
and cancellation of rights acquired by
fraud are the points aimed at and
