'It is my opinion Hint now is tho<br />
opportunity for tlio pineapple growers<br />
to prepare to mako a display nt tho<br />
Exposition nt<br />
Seattle next year," said 11. A. Jordan<br />
yesterday. Mr. Jordan lias just re-<br />
turned from n tour of tho Northwest<br />
and whilo nt Seattle he went over tho<br />
rxpositlon grounds nnd learned much<br />
concerning the area allotted to Hawaii<br />
ini if1 building.<br />
Jlo learned also that tho Philippines<br />
and Hawaii acreage, which wns origin-ill- y<br />
a inrgo area in which both coun-<br />
tries wcro to bo represented, lias been<br />
rearranged and tho wholo tract thcro<br />
jiven over to Hawaii, tho Philippines<br />
holng given a new location,<br />
"Tho pineapple Industry of Hawaii<br />
is increasing so rapidly," said Mr.<br />
Jnrdnn, "and tho supply is overlap-in- g<br />
tho demand, thntj in my opinion,<br />
if tho pineapple companies form nn<br />
association, they could not do hotter<br />
than to make n large exhibit nt this<br />
exposition which would bo ono of Ha-<br />
waii's best attractions. I belicvo tbnt<br />
whatever the pinenpplo growers hero<br />
Jo in tho way of an exhibit for Scat-li- b<br />
thoy will bo amply repaid, for it<br />
will servo to properly bring tho Ha-<br />
waiian pine before tho general Amer-<br />
ican public<br />
"Of course, Seattlo is particularly<br />
tho center of the npplo orchard indus-<br />
try, nnd tho growers ther,e Intend to<br />
tsko advnntago of tho exposition to<br />
advertise this great product of the<br />
aorthwest. I notico that in the hotclB<br />
and on tho steamers tho northwest np-pl-<br />
aro always on the tables, but Ha<br />
waiian pines or any other pines nro<br />
seldom seen. Tho placing of tho pine-tppl- o<br />
exhibit can bo done nt such a<br />
small cost that I hopo auvantago win<br />
oo taken of tho opportunity. It will<br />
show that wo nro not behind tho times<br />
in producing a fruit which cannot be<br />
ixccllod."<br />
Mr. Jordan brought the following<br />
writo-u- of tho oxposition from Seat-<br />
tle nt tho request of Lloyd McDowell<br />
f tho oxposition publicity department,<br />
to bo published hero for the informa-<br />
tion of tho business community:<br />
"Tho Exposi-<br />
tion is further advanced than was tho<br />
St. Louis fair nt a similar period of<br />
its existence. There is no question in<br />
juy mind but that tho 1909 fair will<br />
bo eompiotcd on timu nnd that it will<br />
pen for a most successful exhibition."<br />
President Howard Klliott, of tho<br />
.Northern Pacific, in commenting on<br />
Seattle's great enterprise.<br />
"When tho gates of tho<br />

pean countries. In this structure will bo<br />
coiiiprchensivo displays from Germany,<br />
England, France, Bclguim, Italy, Per<br />
sin, Syria, San Mnrino, Netherlands, ln<br />
din, Holland, Turkey, Greece, and other<br />
countries. The foreign liuilding will<br />
coutnin 00,000 feet of exhibit spneo and<br />
will cost when completed about $85,000.<br />
Tho Jnpnneso will build an exhibit<br />
palneo closo to tho foreign liuilding.<br />
This building will ontnin a complete<br />
lino of manufactured articles, from<br />
ovory part of tho .Tnpanoso Empire.<br />
There is considerable nctivity<br />
throughout tho State looking to tlio<br />
erection of county buildings on the ex-<br />
position grounds. Spokane County will<br />
erect a $10,000 structure, Chehalls<br />
County plnns to spend about $15,000<br />
on its building, nnd Wnlln Walla Coun-<br />
ty will orcct a magnificent structure.<br />
King County's building will bo nn im-<br />
posing structure, and Pierce County<br />
plans to spend about $50,000 in erect-<br />
ing n building.<br />
There is every indication that a largo<br />
number of States throughout the Union<br />
will havo buildings ou the 1D09 exposi<br />
tion grounds. Tho Oregon building is<br />
complete, the California building so per<br />
cent., and the Washington liuilding Jii<br />
per cent, complete, Missouri will short-<br />
ly commence the erection of a Stnto<br />
building, nml a New York Stnto struc-<br />
ture Ib assured. Texas will orcct a<br />

to make appropriations In January<br />
w hen tho various legislatures will be in<br />
hession.<br />
The Exposition<br />
will be complete sixty days before the<br />
day hot for tho opening, and will thus<br />
enjoy the dlstinctipn of being the first<br />
international exposition finished in<br />
every detail by tho opening date. While<br />
fivo months remain in which to build<br />
tlio exposition, tho grounds nro in ex-<br />
cellent shape, and there havo been<br />
nearly 30,000 paid admissions since Sep<br />
tember u. A largo section of tlio green<br />
lawns havo already been laid out and<br />
a number of tho wfndiug paths aro com-<br />
pleted. Thero nro moro than 1,000,000<br />
plants in the greenhouses ready for<br />
transplanting, and the mild climate of<br />
Pugot Sound makes it possible to set<br />
out the more hardy of thoso plants dur-<br />
ing the winter months.<br />
The grading of tlio streets of tho<br />
Pay Streak is completed mid several of<br />
the attractions hnvi nlrendy broken<br />
ground. Among the big shows will bo<br />
tho streots of Cairo, the Chinese vil-<br />
lage mid the Jnpnneso concession,<br />
tho sconic railway and other<br />
amusements which have never been seen<br />
Lt pruMous expositions.<br />
During the oxposition period thero<br />
will be balloon and airship races nnd<br />
aeroplane, tosts will be made by tho<br />
United States government nnd noro-nnu-<br />
from every part of tho country.<br />
These demonstrations will bo held on<br />
the exposition grounds. The exposition<br />
will build a motor boat pnvllion on<br />
Lake. Washington, whero there will bo<br />
housed tho first complete exhibit of<br />
power craft ever uiiido nt nn interna-<br />
tional exposition. There will bo races<br />
between fast motor boats on tlio lakes<br />
as well ns on Puget Sound, when tlio<br />
boats will raco between Seattlo and<br />
British Columbia ports.<br />
Tho United States government is to<br />
build a station on Lake<br />
Union, where thcro will bo practical<br />
demonstrations of all known equipment<br />
for saving life. Dally exhibition drills<br />
will be given. From 0110 of tho naval<br />
stations on the Atlantic Const will bo<br />
shipped a submarine boat for exhibition<br />
purposes. Tho Pnclflc squadron will be<br />
in tho harbor for tho opening of tho<br />
exposition nnd will be on tho Sound a<br />
second time before tho closo of tho fnlr.<br />
The Japaneso government will send two<br />
big war vessels to Seattlo while the ex-<br />
position is in progress.<br />
Tlio annual meet of tho Amateur<br />
Athletic Union is assured for Seattle<br />
next year. The exposition management<br />
will build nn athletic stndlum, where nil<br />
sporting oyents will take place. Con-<br />
testants from tho recent Olympic games<br />
will be in Seattlo, and tho animal games<br />
of tho Y. M. C. A. will bo held on tho<br />
grounds, besides intercollegiate eon-test-<br />
football and baseball wimps.<br />
During tho exposition period n largo<br />
number of military nnd semimilltnry<br />
bodies will be encamped on tho grounds<br />
nnd thoir daily parades and drills will<br />

QRGANfZATION IS<br />
NEGESSARYTHING<br />
"I nm working solely for tho reor-<br />
ganization of tho Republican party in<br />
this county," said Itcprcscntntivo-clec- t<br />
E. A. Douthltt, yesterday, "and I havo<br />
no idea of coercing any of tho elected<br />
officials of tho county nor of attempting;<br />
to dictato to them. We nro not making<br />
any demands for a recognized right to<br />
dictato appointments, cither, In spite<br />
of what construction may havo been<br />
put on ray words.<br />
"Everybody knows thoro has to be<br />
organization in n political party, just<br />
as thero. must bo organization in, any<br />
going concern. As soon ns tho organ-<br />
ization ceases and thoso at tho head aro<br />
not ablo to pick up tho loose ends with-<br />
out delay, right thero tho party ceases<br />
to bo a forco and n corporation "begins<br />
to go to pieces. Tho reason tho Demo<br />
crats won as much ns thoy did in tho<br />
last election, in tho faco of n majority<br />
of Republican voters in the county, was<br />
because they had a good organization,<br />
an organization which their victories<br />
in November has strengthened. If<br />
their organization is maintained and<br />
ours is allowed to go to pieces, at tho<br />
next election wo will bo swept from<br />
'tho boards. Then what will bo tho<br />
consequences to this Territory, whoso<br />
continued wclfnro surely depends on tho<br />
malntcnnneo of Republican principles?<br />
"Tho Republican county committeo<br />
docs not want to appoint the county<br />
officers but it is certainly just that all<br />
appointees should bo endorsed by us.<br />
I should think that the elected officials<br />
would welcome the necessity of having<br />
n list of endorsed men to select from,<br />
because in tho hordo that bother them<br />
for jobs thoy certainly havo enough<br />
trouble. When an applicant can bo re-<br />
ferred to tho committee it takes at part<br />
of tho responsibility off tho shoulders<br />
of the officials without in any way les-<br />
sening their right of choice. Naturally<br />
all applications should bo mndo to tho<br />
ono who has the appointing power, but<br />
that official should rofcr the applicants<br />
to us beforo choosing him."<br />

to which wns talked over a proposed<br />

also to recommend to tho Supervisors<br />

It is said that Chief of Dotectives<br />
Knlakicla may bo retained under tho<br />
Jnrrett ndministration at tho pollco<br />
station ns tho head of tho detective<br />
bureau. This bureau may be directed<br />
by a enptain In future, instead of by<br />
a chief, to have equal authority only<br />
with the enptain of the foot police.<br />
During the absence of District Mng-istrat- o<br />
Andradc, a peculiar situation<br />
has'ariscn with Second District Magis-<br />
trate Long on the bench. Mr. Long<br />
is disqualified to. act In liquor<br />
owing to his position as commissioner<br />
on tho Board of License Commission-<br />
ers. The point was ra'ised yesterday<br />
morning in tho case of Okabe, charged<br />
with selling liquor without a license.<br />
Attorney Peters, for the defendant, ob-<br />
jected to Judgo Long sitting in tho<br />
ense, to which tho magistrate replied<br />
that whothor or not tho point was<br />
well taken, ho had no desiro to hear<br />
liquor cases.<br />
In another enso, that of Ed Kali ale,<br />
charged with the larceny of a watch,<br />
nn interesting point was raised by the<br />
Bame attorney. Kalinlo was convicted<br />
somo time ago and sentenced to thirty<br />
days' imprisonment for the larceny of<br />
a .revolver. In tho present case, the<br />
charge wus larceny of ;a watch. Both<br />
articles nro alleged to have been taken<br />
from the samo place at the same time.<br />
Tho attorney contended that thero<br />
could bo but one offense charged,<br />
whilo Mr. Milverton, for tho prosecu-<br />
tion, contended with equal vigor that<br />
(jnch article stolen constituted a sepa<br />
rate offense. Judgo Long cut tho Gor-dia- n<br />
knot by requesting tho attorneys<br />
to submit authorities, and the case<br />
was continued.<br />
A bond of $100 was exacted from<br />
one Aana, a Celestial, wiio started out<br />
to revengo himself on somo ono in<br />
Waipahu. Judgo Long, after hearing<br />
tho ovidenco of several witnesses, de-<br />
clared that Aana must put up a bond-fo-<br />
good behavior. Anna, it pppcars,<br />
is jealous of some of ins relatives who<br />
havo acquired more worldly goods<br />
than he. Armed witli a couplo of<br />
butcher knives, bo started in Bearcli<br />
of his brother-in-law- , Akni, last Fri-<br />
day, swearing to carve him up. His<br />
threats were heard by Mrs. David and<br />
others, and were reported to the au-<br />
thorities. Ho was brought to town by<br />
Detective Lake.<br />
WILL REftRREST THE<br />
TRI00 CAMBLERS<br />
County Attirnoy Cathcart yesterday<br />
gave directions to Chief of Detectives<br />
Kalnkicla to rearrest the three Chinese<br />
gamblers whose cases were<br />
in police court on Monday morning.<br />
The men wore charged with maintain-<br />
ing a gambling houso, tho arrests grow-<br />
ing out of tho famous raid in Mauna-kc- a<br />
street recently by Joo Leal, when<br />
twenty-seve- Chinese wcro arrested for<br />
playing paikau.<br />
When tho cases were called in court<br />
Mondny nfter a short discussion be-<br />
tween Prosecutor Milverton and C. F.<br />
Chillingworth, counsel for tho defend-<br />
ants, a nolle prosequi was entered by tho<br />
former against all the defendants. The<br />
police were rather annoyed at this sum-<br />
mary dismissal of the cases, and Sheriff<br />
Iaukca expressed himself as consider-<br />
ably surprised at the action taken by<br />
Mr. Milverton, Vhon tho cases were<br />
called Chief of Detectives Kalakiola<br />
wns absent from the court room momen-<br />
tarily. No one was sent for him to<br />
come into court and when he did nrrlvo<br />
be found the cases disposed of.<br />
Thcro is likely to be some sensational<br />
ovidenco presented, and it may bo the<br />
means of determining whether or not<br />
the allegations of some of the gamblers,<br />
thnt police protection has been afforded<br />
this particular game are true.<br />

11 TRIBUTE<br />
OF SORROW<br />
The following resolutions have been<br />
adopted by the Hawaiian Board:<br />
Tho members of tho Board of tho<br />
Hawaiian Evangelical Association havo<br />
hoard with deep sorrow- of, tho death<br />
of their beloved Rev. Hiram<br />
Bingham, D. D., who passed away in<br />
Baltimore on October 25.<br />
In the deccaso of Dr. Bingham wo<br />
recognizo tho departure of one who has<br />
filled a largo place in tho missionary<br />
world and who has accomplished an un-<br />
usual and remarkable work for human<br />
ity.<br />
Dr. Bingham was tho son of nor.<br />
Hiram and Mrs. Sybil Bingham of tho<br />
first company of missionaries sent from<br />
Boston to theso islands, who landed<br />
on theso shores in 1820. Born in 1831,<br />
at tho ago of ten years, ho went tn<br />
tho States with his parents upon their<br />
return to their fatherland in 1841.<br />
Having completed his collegiate and<br />
theological course and enlisted in tho<br />
service of tho American Board he re-<br />
turned to his native islands in tho first<br />
Morning 8tar, under appointment as a<br />
missionary to Micronesia. The mission<br />
ary vessel on November 19, 1S57, land-<br />
ed Mr. Bingham, with' his devoted wife,<br />
Mr. Clarissa Browstcr Bingham upoa<br />
Apaiang, ono of tho Gilbort Islands, in<br />
tho center of tho chain of islands con-<br />
taining a population of 30,000 people.<br />
and constituting it may bo said, tho<br />
most pumcult missionary field in the.<br />
world. We can but touch upon somo<br />
of the difficulties of tho work and brief-<br />
ly alludo to a few of tho very scvero<br />
trials of a life of years upon thoso<br />
sand islands. Tho lack of government<br />
ond of hnrmony among the people, and<br />
consequent bloody wars; tho gross ig-<br />
norance and nakedness of thoso whom<br />
thoy sought to teach; the lack of any<br />
of the productions of tho soil known<br />
to civilized man as useful for food, tho<br />
uncertainty nnd infrequency of commu-<br />
nication with tho islands and continents<br />
all removed by hundreds, and some oE<br />
them by thousands of leagues of old<br />
ocean; these all, and each, constituted<br />
barriers stupendous and appalling to<br />
any but tho most heroic heart, fortified<br />
by immovable faith in a present God,<br />
nnd in the power of tho Gospel Salva-<br />
tion thoy wcro sent to proclaim.<br />
Faith may removo mountains, but<br />
nerves, muscles and vitality havo their<br />
limits. With tho passage of years of<br />
incessant laBors and patient endufanco<br />
of adversities, health failed, and theso<br />
model missionaries camo to our balmy<br />
Hawaii, to prolong tho remaining Icaso<br />
or life, and hero to continue their in-<br />
valuable literary labors for their dear-<br />
ly beloved Gilbertcso people.<br />
In 1857 when Dr, and Mrs. Bingham<br />
landed in their island field the language<br />
was unwritten, letters woro unknown,<br />
nnd tlio power to communicate thought<br />
by means of written characters had not<br />
boon conceived. At the end of fifty-on- o<br />
years, wo fiud tho entire Biblo<br />
translated and in the hands of the peo-<br />
ple, with hymn books, arithmetics,<br />
geographies, a Biblo dictionary with il-<br />
lustrations, a book of Biblo stories and<br />
n commentary on Matthew, and besides<br />
these a dictionary of tho language.<br />
Thero Is also a commentary upon tho<br />
four gospels and tho Acts of tho<br />
apostles now In print, but which has<br />
not yet reached tho field. All these<br />
works aro tho result of tho diligence<br />
of Dr, Bingham nnd his wife, whilo<br />
both during tho latter twenty-fiv- e years<br />
of thoir lives wero in very poor health.<br />
The history of modern missions, so<br />
far ns wo know, furnishes no parallel<br />
to tho caso of Dr. Bingham, who re-<br />
duced tho language of n savage people<br />
to writing, translated the wholo Bible.<br />
and furnished in mcnsurnblo degree toxt<br />
books and a Iiteraturo for a wholo peo-<br />
ple. Truly Dr, Bingham and his wife,<br />
who laid down her burdens five years<br />
ago, wero bright examples of faith, in-<br />
dustry and devotion.<br />
It remains to speak of Dr. Bingham<br />
as a leader and guide to tho moro than<br />
forty nativo Hawaiian ministers who,<br />
during tho past flfty-flv- o years, havo<br />
gooo from Hawaii as missionaries to<br />
the Marquesas and Micronesian IslandB.<br />
The first Hawaiian missionaries to Mar-<br />
quesas and Micronesia renched their<br />
fields four and five years beforo Dr.<br />
Bingham entered upon his mission. But<br />
nil who havo gone to cither the Mar-<br />
shall or Gilbert islands havo been aid-<br />
ed and upheld by tho guidanco and ex-<br />
ample of Dr. Bingham. Nineteen men<br />
who were missionaries upon those two<br />
groups have either died in tho field, or<br />
havo returned to their nativo .land and<br />
here been laid to rest. Seven are still<br />
In gospel work as most valued pastors<br />
in our Island churches in Hawaii. The<br />
reflex influence for good, of Dr. Bing-<br />
ham's example upon the Christian life<br />
of today, in the churches of Hawaii is<br />
incalculable.<br />
Resolved, That we render thanks to<br />
God for the record of his life; and that<br />
we preserft to his sister, still with ns,<br />
nnd to his son and other relatives in<br />
tho fatherland, our sincere sympathy<br />
for tho loss from sight of him. who<br />
has been so bright a light and so lov-<br />
ing a friend to them, and' to us all theta<br />
many years.<br />
