training trips start in March, and
both Managers Rowland of the White
Sox and Tinker of the Cubs will be
busy men, arranging for discards.
Rowland has "a athletes on his list,
and it is desired that only 81 start
from here for Mineral Wells, Tex,
where the conditioning camp will be
pitched. A dozen pitchers and half
as many catchers are on the roster,
and several men employed in these
departments probably will be cast off
without a trial
The infieId division is fairly crowd
ed, but every man there is worth a
thorough trial, and the outfelding
crop classes well. Terry and McMul-
len, the infelders secured from the
coast, will get chance at third base
and shortstop. Both were stars in
their league and must be considered.
Jack Ness will have a whack at first
base.
Rowland has no ironcIad contracts
to bother him and only has to secure
waivers in order to dispose of his sur
plus. Joe Tinker is not in that envi-
able position. He is hampered by I'M
breakable agreements in many in
stances and must find some club will
ing to assume fat contract before
he can do any eliminating.
Joe's squad is still away beyond the
quota he desires to take to Tampa
and there are several men whose
abilities are known through their big
league efforts in the past. They do
not fit into the Tinker scheme and
will be dropped.
Charley Weeghman and Roger
Bresnahan were due for another con-
ference today in an effort to settle the
status of the ex-Cub pilot. Weegh-
man says he wants to do the best he
can for Bresnahan and will send him |

II was the evident intention Of Sec
retary Garrison to fight until the last
trench for a continental army and IN
opposition to federalized militia.
This unbending purpose caused great
irritation among many members Of
Congress This extended In all direc-
fions and made certain q prolonged
and unpleasant fight. It was evident
from the outset that Mr.. Garrison's
plan was overwhelmingly rejected and
would at the end receive but few
votes either In the senate or house.
This made the struggle seem useless
and productive of nothing but delay
and wrangling.

that previously was inevitable
Following close on the heels OF Mr.

started under Representative Claude

This was for the purpose Of making
him assume real leadership and as
sist IN putting through the prepared

Speaker Clark was named as the man
most desired for successor as majority

"A number Of Mr., Kitchin's most val

PROTECTION Of
PLENATION'
GREATEST DUTY
Ex-Governor David !. Walsh
Struck BY Many Races in
Schools of Honolulu

That the first function of every gov
ernment is the protection of public
health, and that education and COM
mercial and industrial development
follow closely after, was the message
brought to members of the CONNER
cial Club today by Hon. David |.
Walsh, former governor Of the state
of Mas sachusetts. Mr.. Walsh spoke
at the noon luncheon.
Joseph E. Sheedy, general superin-
tendent of the InteraIsland Steam
Navigation Company, and son of
Massachusetts, introduced the speak
er, referring to the fact that he had
the honor Of being one Of the youngest
governors that had ever served in any
state.
u an proud 10 be the citizen or q
country whose Gag stands for the well
fare Of the human race" declared
Governor Walsh. The first function
OF q government Is the protection OF
the public health.
Blessing to Rich and Poor.
without health there can be no
happiness or prosperity. Every law
passed to protect the individual is a
blessing to both rich and poor. Our
great United States has already con-
quered typhoid, diphtheria and small
pox, and we shall yet conquer tuber-
culosis, cancer and kidney and heart
trouble.
The Massachusetts statesman said
that he is proudest of the United
States because of what 1t is doing
among nations for the uplifting, devel-
opment and the progress of humanity.
The second function of govern
ment is education said the speaker.
Il have been delighted and impressed
beyond expression of words with what
I have seen In this line in your
schools.
1T has been a positive inspiration
to ind the children of all these races
attending our schools. learning our
history and coming to know early in
life for what our American fiag stands.
They win grow up just as loyal and
devoted citizens as we who have been
reared with many generations OF
American life back of US.
Must Grasp Opportunity. !,
In concluding Mr.. Walsh urged the
businessmen or Honolulu to realize
their opportunity and obligation to de-
velop the commerce and industry of
the Hawaiian islands He compared
the government at Washington to a
mother watching over all her children
with Just a little more interest in the
smaller ones. or those farthest away.
81 ask you to know that your coun-
try is interested in you" he said, "and
/ charge you to make yourselves
known-that you live in a land which
is the garden spot of the earth, with
the American flag floating over you in
protection"

.UKljLELE MAKERS
TO BE PROTECTED
in THEIR MARKET

To protect a distinctly Hawaiian
product--the ukuIelefrom the eK-
ploitation of unserupulous mainland
manufacturers, the Ad Club at its
weekly meeting today indorsed the
work of its vigilance committee In
planning a trademark to be stamped
on all ukuIeles made in Hawaii and
made by hand.
Gen. j. II. Soper, chairman of the
vigilance committee, reported that
mainland firms are beginning to turn
out ukuleIes by machinery, owing to
the craze for these attractive musical
instruments, and to pass them off as
handmade Hawaiian products. He
gave the name and address of New
York firm which, he said, is trying to
pass off its instruments as Nunes
ukuleies. He also exhibited copies Of
the proposed trademark, which int
cludes two .tabu" sticks and a crown.
sort of characteristic Hawaii mark
The club voted to get this trade
mark registered in Washington. 1t
will be kept In the control of the Ad
Club, Uut any local manufacturer Of
musical instruments or supplies who
will pay for the stamp can secure the
use of the trademark by getting the
Endorsement of the Ad Club. 1t is ex-
pected that all the ukulele makers In
Hawaii will avail themselves of this
method of protecting their rightful
market
