will have become old enough to vote
by 1890; that 1891 more will have
been added to the list Of eligible vot-
ers by 1910, making a total during a
22-year period Of 35,l37. Deducting
10 per cent to cover possible. losses by
removal and death. the report esti-
mates that by 1910 there will be an
aggregate of Japanese voters in the
territory of 30,s57. including 2s7 now
registered.
Pointing to the fact that japanese
children in the public schools of
Hawaii in 1910 were 27.72 per cent
of the total enrolment and that in
1919 this school groups stood at 40.55
per cent Of the whole, the report says
this indicates that the place In the
electorate that the Japanese viii 90.
cupy in 1880 and again in 1910 may.
indeed. be q under estimated" The
concrete deduction then follows:
Whether or not the Japanese de-
sire to achieve political control, with
out doubt, within a few years, they
will be in a position to do so IL they
choose" y,
Interesting comparisons of the de-
gree OF intermarriage INDUCED In by
different races in the islands next are
taken up, which bring the commits
sion to the conclusion that, :" in gen.
eral. Japanese marry only Japanese.
It is clear that all races, except the
Koreans and Japanese, are fusing
rapidly through intermarriages, but
that the Japanese group. is maintain
ing its racial distinctiveness." T.

Williston. N. D., Jan. s1.-Due to
the uccess of the farmers public
market which has been conducted IN
this city for the past month"; under
the auspices Of the Williston Com
mercial club, the farmers who are in

At the meeting a board OF direc-
tors al elected al follows: w. A.

Broadway has been rented by the new
association. At the first market day
to be held under the new management
on February S, the ladies of the Altar
society Of st. Joseph's Catholic
church will serve coffee and light

are deriving much benefit from the
ready cash they receive for their prod
uce. At the sale held last Saturday

DYNAMITE
TO- WRECK DAM
ATCOLD SPRING
Two Charges Set off in At
tempt to Do Away With
Dam Across Sank River.

Cold Spring, Mimi, Jan. a.
County authorities are today investi-
eating the attempt to wreck. the dam
across Sank river at this village early
yesterday morning, when an explosion
of dynamite damaged the property to
the extent Of SIS, 900 but failed to
blow out the dam. The water power
is owned by the Rockville Granite
company and a reward of $4,000 is
offered for the arrest and conviction
Of the dynamiters.
Lack Of knowledge in method Of
handling explosives prevented the
destruction of the dam. It is esti-
mated that two 'shots" a~ggregating
$50 pounds Of dynamite were set of.
The explosion completely shattered
the Penstoek house. 20 by 40 feet,
threw the debris over adjacent prop
erty and awakened everybody in the
town by the terrific crash and illumi-
nation.
For a there has been litigation
in the Stearns county courts over this
DAM A syndicate Of farmers sought
its removal in a drainage project to
lower the water in the river and lakes
above the dam. claiming the water
overlooked their lands. The village Of
farmers syndicate in the courts and
prevented the removal of the. dam.
The owners of the water power were
neutral in this fight and have offered
to dispose Of the dam to either side
in the controversy. The dam is one
of the Oldest in the. state, having been
built before the government survey in
1857. In the latest; litigation now in
the courts the state game and fish
commission has beer made a party in
interest because Of the fact that the
removal. of the dam would kill the fish

stroy these lakes as summer resorts,

London, Jan. 14.-(Mail.)-British

Ament and underemployment. For ex-

During the year 653,700 workers

by the methods Of adjustment to
island influences represented by the
Portuguese and the Japanese races, the
report says: while both groups were
originally brought into the islands to
satisfy the need for cheap labor on
the plantations. there is with both q
pronounced tendency to seek a bet
ter economic position by breaking
away irons the plantations and engag-
ing in other activities giving promise
of q freer and more ample life.
1.-THE Japanese are ambitious to be-
come tenants, to own land, to 0ot up
business, to enter q. profession, to rise
above the category of unskilled labor
and as they individually achieve their
ambition, they are, like the .Portu7
gese. participating more and more in
the affairs Of the islands. socially.
educationally, politically. Further
more. they are all at work. There
are few trifiers and idlers among
$4,000. male and $1,000 female adult
Japanese in the islands. A table.
based upon information obtained from
the Japanese consulate general shows
that 50,149 of them are employed in
gainful occupations.
Few In Court.
"It should be said In fairness that
there are few Japanese children in
the juvenile court Inc In institutions
for delinquents, and there are pro-
p%ortionately very few japanese among
the convict labor gangs and in the
jails. Few, II any are supported by
public charity. nor are any begging in
