The instructions quote l3e islands, conditions ivere entire-j from tho laws passed hy congress 3 v different from those existing at! to regulate the matter "of caring the present time," said Joel Nash, for the reserves as follows: iwho has just returned from a trip J "Tho secretary of the interior lo Honolulu, says the Telegram.! may permit, under regulations to "In the early days the islands were i be prescribed by him, the use of ivide open, as you might say. There j timber and stone found upon such were no locks on the doors of the j reservations, free of charge, hy bona amuses, and the people gave no j fide settlers, miners, residents and thought to robberies. Living as prospectors or minerals, for fire Ihey did in a land of plenty, where wood, fencing, buildings, mining, all that was needed to make life! prospecting and other domestic ... .i !. u liaiM'V was a little work, tncy ; thought nothing of other wealth and were satisfied to drift on and live an easy life. At night time the doors were thrown open in or der that the cool night winds might ie taken advantage of, and as there was little of value to steal, those in the house slept without fear. "Since the coming of the white man, however, conditions have ma terially changed. Now all the Louses are equipped with modern doors and locks. When the Spanish-American war came Honolulu was was made the half-way station for the transports bound across the Pacific, and thousands of hard characters drifted into the country. The Hawaiians received the Amer ican soldiers with open arms at first. They feasted them and did everything in their power to make their stay on the island pleasant. After the transports had sailed there wer? always a number of ar ticles missed, such as bicycles and other things of value. Nothing was thought of the matter at first, but the Hawaiians and American residents finally became suspicious, an'd a change came over them. They did not act so hospitably and kept everything under lock and key. The fault did not lie with the American soldier as a type, but in a quickly organized army a few undesirable characters are sure to get in, and these did enough pilfer ing to ca4 a bad name on thous ands of aB honorable and brave soldiers as ever marched into bat tle. The crowds that gathered to meet the transports grew smaller and smaller, and offerings of fruit and hospitalities became rarer as the misdeeds of some of the soldiers became generally known. "Another factor which made the natives protect themselves was the adrent of Japanese, Chinese and other foreigners. Contract labor has been brought in, and consists of Porto Ricans, who are nothing less than slaves, and who steal any thing they can lay their hands on. "Ttie natives themselves have de veloped dishonest traits from their environments, and prove apt pu pils. The police force is totally in adequate to guard the public safety. It is made up of natives who are unacquainted with the methods of white burglars, and are unable ti cope with them. Tbey look well on parade, but when it comes to hunting down a criminal are at a loss how to proceed, and that is about all. There is a mounted r-quad, both bicycle and horse, and the native.- are the finest butlt men h. the island. For the detection , . j , .. , . ., of treason and political crimes thev 1 are as good as in former days, but1 f..r actual police duty are of little, value, it is a sname inai conui-; timiS Vliouid have undergone suchj u cliiinye." i Plpnty of Winter Umh-rwear.

Captivin 8. B, Ornicby, superintendent of thefrv cado Forest Reserve, is in receipt of an amendment to tho rules reg- purposes, as may ue neeu in buuii pemous for such person?; such Urn ber to he used within the state or territory, respectively, where such reservation may be located." The instructions state that cor porations are not allowed to profit under this rule, and continues: "Before any timber or stone can be taken hereunder from the forest reserves, the person entitled thereto must first make application to the forest supervisor in charge of the reservation. Upon receipt of the application, the supervisor will im mediately make investigation of the facts in the case. If, in his judgment, the application be meri torious and no injury to the forest cover will result from the removal of such timber, he will thereupon approve such application, giving the party permission to remove the timber under the supervision of a forest officer; Provided, That where the stumpage value of the timber exceeds $20, permission must be obtained from the department. In cases o emergency, where needy persons require immediate relief in the form of a load of dry firewood, the supervisor has authority to grant Buch privilege without mark ing or measuring the material be yond assigning to the applicant the particular area where to cut this material," , . Representative Tongue intends if possible to put a stop to lieu-land frauds. He has introduced a bill providing that hereafter, when tracts within forest reserves are re linquished, the other lands selected shall be vacant surveyed public lands subject to homestead entry and shall be approximately the same value as the lands relin quished. This bill was introduced after a conference with Commis sioner Hermann, who gives it his hearty endorsement. A favorable report is also expected from Hecrt tary Hitchcock, who is known to desire such legislation. Represent ative Tongue hau also introduced a bill providing that adult heirs of any deceased Indian to whom a patent has been issued for lands allotted in the former Siletz Indian reservation may sell their inher itance; also a bill ratifying the agreement with the Grand Ronde Indians and appropriating $28,500 to pay them for a tract of 25,791 acres thereby relinquished.
