The vote of the town in the! Territorial election last November was 1,712, several hundred larger than was ever cast before. There are not less, rather more, persons who have the necessary residential qualifications for voting now than there were then. All who possess such qualifications should recognize it as their duty to register. Regardless of what precinct one’s residence is, he is required to register at the City Clerk’s Office in City Hall. It is open every day in the week except| Sunday, with a minimum of inconvenience by everyone. These are not altogether pleasing times through which the community is passing. Its normal prob- lems are superimposed by other problems which will last through. the coming municipal year. The conditions are such that every qualified person ought to be deeply enough interested to put himself in a position to have something to say about the roster of those who will conduct the City government next year. That can be done only by voting, and there can be no voting without registration. HAWAII POINTS THE WAY. Hawall, sigier Tgrritory of Alagka, will use the Chicags' Cenfliry of’ Progréss Ex ion this year to boost travel tc that famed land. It is making preparations on a large scale to advertise its scenic and other resources to the millions of people who will visit the World's Fair during the coming Sum- mer and Fall months. A bulletin recently issued by the Tourist Bureau of Hawail outlines partially what the islands will foreign policy, especially in the Far East. do as follows: g Hawaiian headquarters will be established at the Chicago Century of Progress Inter- national Exposition with a commission main- | tained jointly by the Federal and Territorial governments, Commissioners from the Islands, well in- formed on Hawaiian history, industry, com- merce and travel, will be in attendance at Hawalian headquarters in the Federal Build- ing during the entire period of the exposi- tion from June 1 to November 1. Novel methods will be used to portray the indus- trial and cultural progress achieved by Hawali during the past 100 years. Numerous other exhibits from the Ha- wailan Islands will be included in other divisions of the exposition. Among these will be a model of Kilauea Volcano firepit as a part of the National Park exhibit in the Hall of Science. Kilauea, located on the lar; mlm\d in the Ha\&:mun group, is a | would have a fine display. | for exhibition. The Federal Government has aheady.

The { model will show its Halemaumau -firepit in action. One hundred years, members of the ex- position commission here point out, have brought dramatic changes and advancements to the Hawaiian Islands without destroying the spirit, romance and charm that have been associated with the “Sandwich Isles” since they were discovered by Captain Cook , in 1778. In 1833 Hawaii's only exports were sandal- l wood and a few supplies for whaling vessels that called here. Today Haawii's exports total more than a hundred million dollars in sugar, pineapples and many other products. Whaleships were practically the only source of contact between Hawaii and the outside world a hundred years ago. In 1933 a modern passenger liner will sail for Hawaii from some Pacific port every 23% hours. A century ago, Honolulu’s foreign popula- tion was about 300. In 1933 Hawaii will be host to approximately thirty thousand globe trotters. Alaska, too, is interested in representation in the Chicago show. Two years ago, the local Legislature Initiated a movement to see that the Territory Due to circumstances that arose last year, plans for this were allowed to fall behind. The Commission created by the Legislature was not brought into existence. On that account, early this year no funds were available to start to obtain quarters as well as certain articles for desired exhibits. It is not too late to remedy this defect. The Legislature, if it acts promptly, can provide the necessary funds, estimated to be about $3,000 to $4,000 to erect a building and obtain the materials In view ! of the unparalleled opportunity the exposition af- fords for advertisement, surely the wisdom of making tioned. Now that President Roosevelt’s Cabinet has been picked and confirmed, the “gentlemen of the press” can return to picking a wife for the Prince of Wales. State and Treasury. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) The two posts of greatest responsibility after the Presidency are the Secretary of State and the Sec- retary of the Treasury. These have been filled, and filled very ably, for the critical years ahemd.l | Senator Cordell Hull is an able attorney, an accom- plished scholar and a statesman of long and dis- | tinguished service in Congress. He brings to the | State Department a keen understanding of the prob- lems of foreign policy and a mature philosophy of government, William H. Woodin is an industrial executive,| unusually skilled in business and finance. His ap- pointment is a definitive answer to those who have; feared Mr. Roosevelt would drift into reckless nione- tary and fiscal policies under the pressure of inflationists. The leading Cabinet members announced are in striking contrast in many ways. Hull is a devout| Democrat, once the National Chairman of his party.| He is not a bitter partisan, but he stands firmly on the philosophy of Jeffersonian Democxacy. ‘Wood- in, on the ‘other-hand, is in no sense aparty man. Nominally he is a Republican. Actually he does | not think in terms of parties, nor indeed in terms | of politics. Senator Hull assumes an enormous responslbxluy,v‘ following the courageous and brilliant service of| Secretary Henry Stimson. son has shaped for America new and more’ virile That policy is founded in the belief that the United States must accept a larger role and: a larger| responsibility in world affairs. Senator Hull ha,s the broad experience and the clear convictions nec-| essary to carry on Mr. Stimson’s work. Mr. Woodin's responsibility is none the less great. At this time the Treasury is necessarily the focal center of almost very significant public measure. In Mr. Woodin we are to have a man who is “safe” | from reckless short cuts to prosperity, and at the same time a man with enough imagination to see that merely digging in and waiting will not get us out of the presnt crisis. These two appointments, as well as the an- nounced appointments to other Cabinet positions, should convince the nation that the incoming Administration will be competent to do its job. They ought to register an immediate response of larger confidence. Dictionaries are weak and insipid when it comes to giving a definition of assassins—Toledo Blade.)

Le Sage puis one cartridge in a revclver, spins the chamber, pulls the trigger with the weapon at his tem- ple. There is a click. ~Then he forces Ricolli to do the same. Another click. Ricolli tries to leave—but Le Sage says no. CHAPTER 2. MAN OF DESTINY Again Madame Le Sage buried her face in her hands as her hus- band pulled the trigger. For the third time the hammer fell with a harmless click, and a look of mingled disappointment; wrath, and despair clouded the handsome countenance of Lieu- tenant Napoleon Riccoli. ‘With a cheerful smile, Le Sage offered him the pistol, while Ma- dame sat erect, and watched him with the deepest interest. “No, no! Enough of this folly. This is sheer madness. I will not do it,” cried Ricolli, exhibiting the anger of fear. “I am not a dog.” “No.” agreed Le Sage. “Dogs are nice -beasts.” “... and I will not die the death of a dog,” continued Ric- coli. “This is murder, I say.” “I'll give you one minute,” in- terrupted Le Sage, glancing at his watch. “If at the end of that minute you have not taken your | Now. ...” Looking more like @& trapped: jackal than any kind of dog, Ric- coli extended a slightly trembling hand, took the pistol and held it to his head. His face cleared, and he smiled “Fate has great things in store for me,” he said. “Not for noth- ing was I born, not only in Cor- sica, but, mark you, in Ajjaccio itself!” “Speech!” interrupted Lieutenant Le Sage. .. and, with an angry glare at that imperturbable man, Riccoli pulled the trigger. For the fourth time a sharp click sounded through the little room, startling, by its mightly smallness, the ears of the three protagonists of this drama. “You see?” Riccoli smiled pale- ly. “I am protected.... I am a Man of Destiny.” “So far, so good—or so bad” observed Le Sage, and taking the pistol, turned it upon himself. “Stop,” cried Riceoli. “We have had the courage to fight two rounds of your terrible duel, and that is enough. As I said before, honor is satisfi “Yours, or mine?” Sage. “Honor is satisfied, I say, and if it is not, I will agree to fight yet. a third duel with you.

Mrs. Charles Naghel and chil- dren left on the Alki for Seattle. They planned to go to Oakland, Cal, for an extended visit. ——— John C. Hazelet, a former Mayor and prominent citizen of Cordova, was a passenger on the Admiral Sampson on his way to his home. James McCloskey returned toJu- neau on the Admiral Sampson from the South. . Harold H. Post, an old Nomette,! arrived in Juneau on the Admiral Sampson to remain here for some time. Miss Edna Ellinger, Margaret Ellinger, Rene Ellinger and Harry Ellinger arrived here on the Alki. A large crowd attended the show at the Treadwell Club. The Orpheum show called out a crowded house that was more, than pleased with The offerings of the evening. Pathe's Weekly was both instructive and enter- taining. Passengers on the Mariposa and Jefferson leaving Seattle for Ju- neau were, Harry Fisher and wife and V. H. Wilhelm. The night before the fire alarm |, had called out many people who thronged the streets rushing to- wards the Governor's House. A large part of thne crowd that was attending the joint session of the Legislature, interrupted Delegate ‘Wickersham’s speech and were add- ed to the excited crowd. Flames| were bursting through the wallsand roof of one of the cottages sit- unated on the government reserve just oppostie the Governor’s House. The building that was partially destroyed was a cottage belonging to the government and occupied by the Misses Thurshy | and Genther, teachers in the gov- ernment school.

The Chief shall thank you himself.” “Well, that settles the question of Riccoli” observed Madame, moving her hands together, with the action of one who dusts her fingers. “Absolutely,” agreed Le Sage. “I shall report that he failed utter- ly and completely; end that in spite of his perfect knowledge of Italian, Spanish, English and Ar- abic, his great histronic ability, his horsemanship, and his extreme cleverness, he is wholly unfit for the Secret Service.
