is Charles King, but Aona, in handling

has been advised to cite both King

"I certainly am puzzled," says Aona

The Bishop Estate is an interested

JUDGE STUART'S

AHACK FLAHENS

His "Press Bureau" Fails to Get

Consideration for Assault

on Public Officials

BY C. S: ALBERT

(Special 8tr BaIletin Rorressondenee)

WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 10.

The final passing of Thomas B. Stuart

as a circuit Judge did not lose any

picturesque and mystifying features.

These continued until the last

A week after scheduled time the

resignation of Judge Stuart was

placed in the hands of President Wil

son. It was taken to the White House

by Senator Shafroth and delivered in

person. More than 24 hours later it

leached the department of justice.

Immediate acceptance followed, with

the casual stipulation that it should

be effective upon the qualification of

his successor. This is always inserted

to prevent depletion of the bench by

wholesale resignations. The letter of

Jndfi-a Stuart reauested relief "as

soon as possible."

. It was found that the letter of resig

nation was dated Honolulu,. April 18.

It was but 10 days less than four

months In reaching the president

This doubtless was due to the fre

quent exchanges between the; Judge

and Senator Shalrotn. The date oc

casioned much comment among . off!

clals. ,:

Almost coincident with the resigna

tion came the first publicity given

Judge Stuart's allegations against the

president. Secretary Lane, Attorney

General Gregory, Governor Pinkham

and others. The frantic efforts of the

Judge's press bureau to secure the

general publication of his letter to

the president, utterly failed. Not a

word was used. , But when the Star

Bulletin of July' 18, containing the

complete letter of Judge Stuart,

reached New York It wis boiled down

and published. This was copied and

spread around to a considerable ex

tent. Close on the heels of this came

the real resignation.

In the meantime, President Wilson

made it impossible for any of the offi

cials mentioned In the letter of Judge

Stuart to peruse it at length, t Attor.

ney General Gregory was the first to

request a copy of it. The president

the ntook a pair of shears and whacked,

the letter up into "takes." All those

referring directly to himself went di

rectly Into the waste basket Those

mentioning other were sent to the in

terested parties. The attorney gen

eral received the section belonging to

him. It Is surmised that the take re

lating to Governor Pinkham was sent

along to Hawaii. In no case was there

an explanation desired. The excerpts

were merely for information and be

cause of requests.

Department of. Justice officials be

gan looking for a successor to Judge

Stuart a week before his resignation

came to the White House. As no new

names of eligibles had been' suggested

consideration was confined to the sur

plus recommended for appointment

when several vacancies existed in the

courts of Hawaii. In this way the

mulling process was in tfu swing

when the belated resignation finally

landed In the department of justice.

It is estimated by the census and

statistics office of Canada that the

area devoted to oats for 1916 is 10,

499,500 acres, as compared with It,

r.65,000 acres In 1915 and 10,061,000

acres in 1914. The area sown to bar

ley is estirttated at 1,317,500 acres,

as against "1,509,350 last year. ,

CHOOSE AVIATION

FIELD FOR OAHU

Army officers have selected the site

of the future Oahu aviation camp, and

with the choosing of a suitable field

the organization of the Aero Club of

Hawaii is expected to be undertaken

shortly.

Gen. Robert K. Evans, commanding

the Hawaiian department, is an active

and enthusiastic supporter of the

plans for developing aviation here and

has asked the war department for 24

biplanes and two civilian instructors.

The field chosen Is at Fort Kame

hameha and has many advantages. It

Is easy of access from Honolulu and

has facilities for both land and water

flying. It is on the left of the road

approaching the Fort Kamehameha

buildings. There are approximately

200 acres in the field, and the water

hangar used will be on. the site cho

sen by Lieut. Harold Geier, the

aviator who some time ago made

experiments here ith the Idea of de

veloping service flying in Hawaii. ;

It will be recommended to the war

department that this field be used.

Interest in aviation since Gen.

Evans announced plans has grown

steadily and rapidly. Applications by

would-be aviators are coming in at an

unexpected rate, both from civilians

and army men. Already about a doz

en Schofleld officers have applied.

The National Guard headquarters

here is receiving applications from

guardsmen and civilians.

Preparedness

Parade Plans

Are Brewing

A preparedness parade for

- Honolulu, either within the next

three weeks or some time in the

: fall after the territorial elec-

tions. is being talked over and.

while no definite plans have

been set, will probably crystal-

ize in the next few days.

Army officers are much Inter-

eted in the plans and the sug- -

gestion has been made that Ha-

walla n Department commands

would participate largely in the

parade. It is hoped to have an.

aviation exhibit as well, to stim- 4-

ulate interest in this branch of

the service. If possible the pa-

rade will oe held on a holidav

f and an effort will be made to

f nave a big showing of the Na-

tional Guard as well as of the

regulars, and civic organizations

will be asked to participate. The -f.

- talk has not developed sufficient-

ly far as yet to single out either

a leader in the preparations or -f

any tentative scheme for the pro-

cession, but those Interested are

hoping that the suggestion of

such a parade will develop dls-

i-t- cussion as to the date and defi-

nite backing.
