Some of the Reasons Why the Army Officers De- sire the City to Be
 Cleaned Up
IS MUCH DRUNKENNESS
Ban On Leather Puttees Is Causing oSme Con- cern to Many Resi-
 dents

HONOLULU, T. H., Jan. 25-Hon- olulu is to be cleaned up by the ar my, to make the city safe for sol diers.
 Announcement to this effect was made by military authorities, who stated that the movement had the endorsement of Brigadier-General J. P. Wisser, commanding the Hawaii an Department
 An officer from Schofield Bar racks, whose name is withheld at his request in order that the of- lenders may not know whom to avoid, has been detailed for the work, and he asserted yesterday that the job was to be a thorough one.
 Many soldiers are taken to the police headquarters every night and booked by the provost guard for drunkenness. Where and how they obtain liquor, in the face of the laws and regulations prohibiting the sale to men in uniform, is one of the things that the army authorities propose to find out.
 The drug traffic is another matter that, according to the officers de- tailed for the work of cleansing the city, is to receive particular atten- tion.
 The captain detailed for the work said also that the military author ities intend to use every effort to detect and prosecute those persons who buy from the soldiers clothing and equipment, the proceeds of which are sometimes spent for liquor or drugs, he says. He will also take measures to strictly enforce the law that prohibits civilians from wearing any part of the recognized uniforms of soldier
 This last announcement is causing considerable apprehension i'll Hawaii as leather puttees are declared by army authorities to be included in the articles forbidden to be worn by civilians Tn this country virtually all plantation managers, foremen and other "bosses" as well as engineers and many other persons habitually wear leather puttees and find them practically a necessity on account of the nature of the country and of their work.
 ! Fears have been expressed that, on account of the moral conditions, soldiers might be forbidden to visit Honolulu, as was done at Camp Lew is by General Greene, but the action of the military authorities in taking into their own hands the cleaning up of the city apparently obviates this danger.

WANTS us.
 TO LOAN MORE
 TO SETTLERS
It Is Believed That They Should Be Encouraged to Settle and Raise
 Produce.

SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 23-In an address here before the livestock growers, the chairman among other things said:
 "The United States has already in vested over $100,000,0O0 in reservoirs and canals of known value and pro- ductiye capacity Using these as a basis of credit, an equivalent sum could be borrowed at low rate of interest and utilized in building other works, which if economically con structed, would serve in turn as an assurance by which still larger funds could be had In the mean time the cost of the works already built is being returned Co the gov ernment and can be used over again. Under wise and conservative finan- city management it is possible to continue along these lines to an ever widening extent
 But how about financing the set tiers? Here we have had less ex- perience, but are rapidly obtaining It. MdHy Well IuOuSul Out piuho have been considered and may be presented here. They are all well based, however, upon confidence in the ultimate ability and intent of settlers to make good to repay the loan Enough has been demonstrated to show that if we follow the rules laid down by business men. if we carefully select the settlers and their families who are to go upon the re- claimed land and use ordinary pre- cautions, we can safely guarantee the return of the money. In other words, the community organization responsible for each and every debt can see to it that the members do their part. The cooperation thus made necessary is one of the great est factors of success in all other lines"

MANY CHANGES ARE
 NOTED IN THE CITY
 OF G0RIZIA IN ITALY

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ITAL- IAN ARMY, Northern Italy, Jan. 25.-Gorizia is a symbol, "On to Gorizia," was the cry of the Duke of Aosta's soldiers as they pressed their way through the little town of Lucinico few months ago, fighting their way down to the IsonZo river, then across the west ern bridge leading to the city, when the cry changed to "Gorizia at Last"
 Then, a week ago, this was re- versed when the overwhelming in vading force of the Austro-Ger-- mans took up this same cry, "On to Gorizia," pressing down from the north, across the northern bridge to the city, and ending with "Gorizia at Last
 Thus Gorizia has become a sym bol of the huge change which has occurred within the last ten days It was one of the furthest points forward on the Italian line, the CeuleI Ol d Fdot dIC Ol ltSutluS front stretching from Plezzo far in the north, down the Adriatic at Montefal- cone, and it was the most populous and important city in the big crescent of territory which the Italian army has sliced off southwestern Austria some six hundred square miles in all And so Gorizia was symbol

SMUGGLERS' TRICKS ON THE BORDER ARE
 OF GREAT VARIETY

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, Jan. are the tricks of the smuggler. Prior to the advent of cold weather, Germans had been discovered crossing the frontier into Holland wearing no under clothing, and women wearing only a mantle. They were on their way to supplement this rather scanty raiment at some Netherlands store near the border, thence to return homeward clad in genuine woolen or cotton underclothes instead of the substitute materials wherewith Germany is in these days arraying itself. To counter this method of procedure, the customs authorities have adopted the equally novel method of stamping the under clothes of all persons who regular ly or frequently cross the frontier. If such traveller are subsequently found wearing unstamped clothes, these are treated as smuggled goods.

BASEBALL OF THE
 EARLY SEVENTIES
 IS RECALLED AGAIN

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-A glimpse of the baseball of the early seven ties is given in pamphlet on the game published in 1875 which was recently unearthed bya modern de- votee of the sport. The booklet, which is equivalent to the present day baseball guide, consists of about thirty pages instead of the several hundred now necessary to chronicle the records of the many major and minor league teams.
 Much of the space is devoted to the doings of the Boston National Association club, winner of the championship for the previous year. The combination included several players the names of whom are still familiar to the fans of this day. That they were high-class players, according to the standards of those times, goes without say ing, yet there is nothing to indi- cate that they were supermen, either on the diamond or off the field of play.

PRECAUTIONS TAKEN
 IN CALIFORNIA TO
 PREVENT OUTBREAK

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 25.-- Data gathered while the anthrax outbreak in California was being combatted last year has been as- sembled for preventive campaign by which Dr. Charles Keane, state veterinarian, hopes to forestall a possible recurrence of the infection in the late summer and early aut- umn of 1918.
 The outbreak last year was worse than in any previous year, and would have been disaster to the stockmen had it not been for the fact that the enlarged state sanitary police force provided by legislative action was ample to cope with tAe situation" Dr. Keane said today.
 Dr. K1ane said the disease was spread principally by biting flies" and irrigation water from rice lands. The water carried the lar va from infected premises into new fields, he said.

When you get down to the last
analysis. you have something like A.
100000 men in this country. You can
take about a quarter Of these without
impairing industry. Out Of that million
men about 40 per cent. are physically
unfit. That is a little of the problem
that the nation faces.
Il took hoe last year and raised
some potatoes and that is all / have
done against the Germans. When my
children look over my record. I'd like
to have something more to my credit
than 20 bushels of potatoes.
But ! wanted to do something and
the Third Maine Regiment came along
with opportunity written all over its
banners"
Mr.. Brewster then told Of the growth
Of the Third Maine Regiment in Port
land. The first company took a month.
the second one took 10 days and the
third one won't take a week to raise.
This Third Maine is not a joke said
he. 1T is not a company of tin SOL
ders, it is a hard. fast reality that is
coming into being. Maine has nobody
upon which it can call in riot in a
time Of danger or disaster like Hal
flax.
I'VE offer You the opportunity to get
ready at home, to keep on with your
business but to be ready for service
outside Of the State If we are needed.
If Germany is to crush every other
country we might as well 60 along
with 'em. Who wants to stay"
In closing. Mr.. Brewster made
strong plea for members for the Third
Maine Regiment. Rev. Charles F. Rob-
inson then spoke for War Savings
Stamps, Smileage and ships, four min
utes for each.
Rev. II. Il. Dunnack Of Augusta was
then introduced and first asked every
body to stand up and shake hands and
then suggested song. 1.-The Battle
Hymn of the Republic" was sung, led
by Miss Alice Barden, instructor of
music at Coburn.
Mr.. Dunnack's address was most elo
quent. enthusiastic and inspiring. His
theme was They Shall Not Pass" At
ter laying down the fundamentals of
his address, he said, Let us then have
done with all conscientious scruples.
The average man who has those things
is a Stacker or worse; his blood is
white or he is traitor; or he is a
representative of foreign foe.
Looking into your faces tonight
would recall to you the glorious days
of 81 when 10000 men went forth from
Maine to fight and 5000 Of them never
came back" Mr.. Dunnack recalled at
length the valiant deeds of the men of
Maine and pleaded that the high stand
ard of the State might not be lowered
III the present crisis.
The committee having the affair in
charge consists of Samuel Freeman,
Fred d. McAlary and T. A. Gilman
from the Chamber of Commerce and
DR.. J. f. Hill, Carroll N. Perkins and
Arthur Daviau Of the Committee Of
Public Safety and Defense.
