Hawaii, our other Territory, like Alaska, will have a Democrat for Delegate to Congress after the fourth of next March. Lincon L. McCandless, al- ways a familiar figure at Democratic National con—‘ \ex‘uions. was elected Tuesday after several unsuc- cessful attempts. He defeated Victor 8. K. Houston, who has represented that Territory in the last three Congresses. Houston won by a slender margin over “Link” McCandless in 1930 only to lose to him this year. Lincaln McCandless is one of three brothers who have been prominent in Hawaii for many years. Hc1 went to Hawaii fifty years ago, following an elder' brother, James S. (“Sunny Jim”) McCandless who preceded him there by one year. Later the eldest of the three brothers, John, now deceased, followed the other two. They are given large credit for the| wonderful expansion of the sugar and pineapple industries through the development of irrigation sys- tems. Jim McCandless went to Hawall to drive artesian wells for the King. Later the brothers discovered the possibilities of artesian wells and the direction and control of streams for irrigation pur- poses. They drove hundreds of wells and built miles and miles of irrigation ditches. They also cleared thousands of acres of lands and prepared them for cultivation. They took a large part of the re- muneration for their work in the capital stock of | the corporations that were formed to develop sugar | and pineapple plantations. They became very wealthy. It is .said that Lincoln McCandless owns more land than any other single individual in the |Moses from cheating the Democrats of the honor velopment of general public health activities and in; the study and control of ain diseases. “Death may defeat me, but never Democrats,” dramatically declared Senator Moses a few days before the ballotting. What happened to the gun or poison or whatever it was that prevented Senator of his defeat? Farm mortgage loans were smaller in both vol- ume and average size in 1931 than in the year be- fore, according to reports to the United States Department of Agriculture from mortgage bankers in 17 Western and Southern States. The Twilight of a Hero. (New York Herald Tribune.) That the racing public has seen the last of Twenty Grand seems probable by his going lame after a workout in preparation for his important engagements at the Maryland courses this Fall been lame off and on all season, but never 50 seriously as during his final workout, and his -etirement on the eve of the rich Washington Handicap, in which he was to have met Equipoise ind other stars, is a great disappointment to the racing public. A repetition of the epic struggle oetween Twenty Grand and Equipoise staged in the race for the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes two years ago had been hoped for, but races like that} at Louisville are not seen often in the life of the average sportsman, Big horses like Twenty Grand are difficult to train if there is trouble with their feet or legs. The axiom “No foot, no horse” is especially ap- plicable when thoroughbreds of great bulk are con- cerned. It requires more work to get them to con- cert pitch than is needed to prepare a horse of delicate mold. Twenty Grand was forced into retirement last autumn when he seemed invincible and was in a fair way to join the most select group of winners on the American turf. With earnings of more than $250,000, the hope was entertained that a winter's rest would see him come forth, like a giant re- freshed, to achieve further triumphs. All that skill and care could suggest, however, failed to make him sound, and his recent determined effort when beaten a neck by Mad Frump was the final gesture of a gallant horse, though he worked subsequently D e 20 YEARS AGO From The Empire Ncvember 14, 1912 Gov, Walter E. Clark issued a proclamation setting aside Thurs- day, November 28 as “Thanksgiving Day. As Thomas Madison, 65, Juneau fisherman, was putting his 25-35 rifle in his boat with the muazzle’ toward him the weapon was acci- dentally discharged. The bullet en- tered his left breast and ‘came out of his back, passing through his left lung. The accident happened | in Lynn Canal near Skagway and the wounded man was taken to the hospital there. For the erection of the Coliseum Thezatre on Front Street, a contract was let by Jaegar and Erickson. The theatre was to be taken over by W. D. Gross. Purchase for the Fire Department of a chemical motor truck was being discussed by the City Council, sev. eral members saying motor power had proved more efficient than horses on hilly streets in Seattle. Col. W. P. Richardson received word of the death Canada, of William Ogilvie, 70, who was Governor of Yukon Territory in 1898 and 1899. Mrs. Ogilvie was a sister of Col. Richardson. R CARD PARTY POSTPONED The fourth card party of the Winter series which was to have been given by the Catholic Ladies at Parish Hall tomorrow evening has been pestponed until November 22, it was aanounced today. a mile and a quarter in 2:07 3-5. In bygone days many big horses with ailing legs were broken to harness and driven to a cart during the training period. This kept the weight off their backs. Alan-a-Dale was trained in this way at the Memphis trotting track by his owner and breeder, Major T. C. McDowell, to win the Kentuvy Derby of 1902, and the grandson of Henry Clay has always contended that his colt would never have gone to the post for the Churchill Downs classic if he had been trained in the orthodox fashion. No handsomer or more majestic horse than Twen- ty Grand has ever been seen on the American turf, nor one with a more determined spirit to win. His children should help to keep his memory green. The Proper Way. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) The Eighteenth Amendment should be repealed,| the control of liquor returned to the States. Sump-| tuary police regulation should be removed from the| | Constitution. Congress should be denied the right| of interference in this respect, except with reference Hawaiian Islands. He is 74 years of age, but is still one of the hardest workers in the Islands. He is a human dynamo. Notwithstanding his great wealth and activity in big business he is a leader in the work of preserving the welfare of the native Hawaiians and the common people. No man in the Islands is better qualified to represent them in Congress. At one time both Link and Jim McCandless were investors in Alaska mining property. “Sunn, T visited Juneau a few years ago when he was head of Scottish Rite Masonry in the United States and, it is said, visited every Temple in the land. He made a reputation during his tour of the country for wit and humor and oratory and fun-making that fastened to him the “Sunny Jim” nickname. A MYTH. HOOVER SWING WA The closeness with which the election returns followed the Literary Digest Presidential poll is complete evidence that the “swing toward Hoover” that we head so much of during the latter weeks of the campaign was a myth. It was said the Hoover swing began in the Middle West with the President’s Des Moines speech. Well, it did not do it, for there was no swing. The principal changes from the Literary Digest Poll were in the East where New Jersey, Massachusetts and Rhode Island swung to Roosevelt, where New York's Roosevelt vote was larger than the poll indicated and where Penn- sylvania and Delaware went to Hoover. Instead of the Middle West swinging to Hoover it went the otherway, enough to carry Kansas, which the Hearst poll gave to Hoover, into the Roosevelt col- umn. The Literary Digest poll was much nearer accurate than the Hearst poll. The latter gave Roosevelt 181 votes in the electoral college The Literary Digest gave him 57 votes. He actually got 59 years. ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION. The last report of The Rockefeller Foundation which has just been issued, is a substantial volume of some 400 pages. During the year 1931, the Foundation, an organi- zation devoted exclusively to philanthropic work, appropriated a total of $18,737,967.90. This sum was distributed among the five fields in which the Rocke- feller Foundation's interests lie: the humanities public health, medical, social, and natural sciences. The increasing world-wide interest in social and economic problems was reflected in the appropria- tions voted for the social sciences. These totalled $5,805,275—a larger sum than was appropriated in any other field of -Foundation activity during the year. In the field of public health, the report an- nounces the final working out and limited applica- tion of an immunizing vaccine for yellow fever, . which now insures, for the first time, greater safety .~ for those scicntists who, in field and laboratory, are engaged in the dangerous task of fighting that . Except to a limited extent in the field of public ‘ealth, The Rockefeller Foundation is not an oper- ating or m agency. It gives assistance, both m and un-ough training of personnel, to uni- versities and other agencies, cheifly national in _seope, which carry on research of a fundamental charactér. 1In addition, in the field of public it w with governments in the de- to interstate commerce and revenue excise. This is the considered view of the American Bar Association. The Bar Association also favors a liquor tax that will aid in the country's economic recovery.| When through their National organizations ser- vants of the law—men who have devoted their lives to the study of the law and to the service of society as officials of the courts—say that the only way to| meet the troublesome question of crime as allied to Prohibition is to take this amendment out of the Constitution and unreservedly restore to the States the right to deal with the liquor traffic, it certainly should be time for average citizens to ar- rive at the same conclusion. This is especially true when it is considered that the leaders in business, industry and medicine also agree with the men of the legal profession. They have seen the light of an unfortunate experiment in National coercion. It appears that an enlightened public is following them closely. Bardell vs. Pickwick. (New York Times.) To be a son of Charles Dickens, to bear the given name of Henry Fielding, to preside as a judge at Old Bailey, and to do so under the title of Common Sergeant, an office created in the year 1319, is to be as deeply soaked in English atmos- phere as one can well imagine. Sir Henry Fielding Dickens, the only surviving son of the author of “Pickwick Papers,” has just retired from the bench at the age of 83. He goes with a reputation of a lenient judge; that would be heredity. Not always do genius and human kindliness dwell so harmoniously together as they did in the man whose voice was among the earliest raised in England in behalf of the suf- ferings and the rights of the common man. The “lower orders” in England have risen far in the lifetimes of Charles Dickens and his son. Yet it may be that free and compulsory schooling in London now and then let slip through its meshes a twentieth century Tony Weller to face Sir Henry Fielding Dickens in court with the request to “spell it with a We, m’ lud.” After long inquiry we've finally located the for- sotten man.

The ad- ministering of Clive's estate—and |there was precious little to ad- | minister—would keep her rival’s memory perpetually active. She had argued passionately against acceptance of the responsibility, finishing with the accusation that if her husband did accept, he would broadeast that she herself was no more than an afterthought. ; Dawn’s attitude was understand- able.

She reserved this for dances and public func- tions which older people attended. It consisted in a starry-eyed stare of expectancy, the hands still, the lips slightly parted. Had the average girl attempted it she would have been recom- mended to have her adenoids re- moved. But Santa could make even an superformed surgical op- €ration aftractive.
