Secretary Stimson's Goat

At last problem Of government has arisen in
which all take real interest.
1t has to do with William Hamilton Bones goat
belonging to Secretary Of State Stnnson, and former
companion and friend Of The Old Soak, the Secre-
tary's parrot which has been brought here from
Manila.
William, likewise, was coming to the capital, and
reached San Francisco.
Department of agriculture officials refused to let
him in, fearing that he might be disease carrier.
Now secretary Arthur Hyde is being asked for a
special ruling in Williams behalf
1t is pointed out that William is not an ordinary
goat but wild Hawaiian goat, and is a case for
special action
So far the agriculture department has shown no
signs Of yielding.
1t looks like aloha" for wild Hawaiian william.

Because we have had our own

Of money by having it, people should
not assume that the conditions
which made this possible are per-

Our success has been largely due
to the fact that other governments

They had to take the dose, whether
they liked it or not. But the situa-
ton is gradually changing.
