The Governor Of Virginia is
pondering over a rare petition,
an appeal from the decision of
the courts in the case of the
Commonwealth Of Virginia
against one black and white
setter dog.
Don has been found guilty
as a sheep killer, and the ver-
dict entered against him is that
he be expatriated from the
confines Of the State under the
pain of death. Mrs. Belk says
that Don is not a killer, and
begs Governor Pollard to grant
a pardon, promising that if she
is permitted to keep the dog
she will enter into any guar
antee or bond to see that he
won't attack or molest live
sheep.
It used to be once in a blue
moon that we happened upon a
dog trial in this country. But
the last few months have given
us a few. There was the case
in Baltimore of the famous
Chow, Ming Toy, a show dog
which, convicted of biting, was
sentenced to die and later a
communication to life exile from
the city.

Western Spearhead

The United States acquired
Hawaii in 1898 for military
reasons. 1t was acquired in
order that it might be de-

Sive outpost" or spearhead,

ward of the United States
mainland in the Pacific Ocean.
In the event Of war in the
Pacific, Hawaii would consti-
tute a most vital naval operat-
ing base. without the support
Of that base, it would be both
difficult and dangerous for the
United States to operate to
the westward.
Although the island of Oahu,
because of its armaments, is a
fortress island of great national
Importance, the other islands
of the Hawaiian group are also
important, because they, too,
will have to be denied to any
enemy attempting an attack
on Oahu.
For this reason general con-

Exile and Death

When an appeal was made
to Governor Ritchie to permit
Ming Toy to reenter Baltimore
for an exhibition, the Gov
ernor referred the matter to
the courts. Judge George A.
Softer, in the Criminal Court,
after due consideration decreed
that Ming Toy would be per-
mitted "to enter the city in a
cage, remain in the cage dur

furnace. 1t came so suddenly
there was little time to plan es-
cape. Desperately she rushed
the children toward the exits
and got them out. Then, blind
ed by smoke and with her own
clothing ablaze, she staggered
to a window and with her last
gasp of consciousness threw
herself out. Stunned and sorely
hurt she lay, barely conscious,
while her clothing burned on
her insensible body. In two

and Pope Benedict XI desired
to adorn his palace with noble
frescoes. So messengers were
sent, commanding all leading
artists to submit samples of
their best work. And a great
rivalry arose.
Splendid beyond description
were the paintings which poured
in, blazing with jeweled color,
ruby and amethyst, topaz, sap

According to a dispatch from
Honolulu, the Governor of
Hawaii has sent an urgent tele-
gram to the Secretary of the
Interior appealing to him to
visit the Territory as soon as
possible for the purpose of OBJ
tanning "a true picture" of con-
ditions there.
What Governor Judd really
means by this message is that
he and his subordinates in the
Territorial government wish
Secretary Ickes to see conditions
in Hawaii through their own
political spectacles instead of
seeing them in the light of the
facts set forth in official rec
ords.
1t was in the light of these
facts that President Roosevelt
asked Congress for authority to
select for Governor of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii the best quail
fled American he could find,
regardless of his local residence
or political affiliations.
The House acceded to this re-
quest by a decisive vote, but the
legislation giving the President
this authority is still pending
before the Senate. In fact, it
is the unfinished business of the
Senate and will come up for
action when Congress recon-
venes next January.
This explains the S o S call
from Honolulu. Secretary Ickes
is doubtless too well acquainted
with the record of Governor
Judd and his administration
to be willing to set aside the
facts of official record and &C.
cept in their place the high
opinion which Governor Judd
and his fellow politicians en-
tertain about themselves.

be necessary.
