HAWAII NATIVE
i
\
HONOLULU, Sept. 10 (by Associ
ated Press).—Hawaii’s native race
will be extinct in 75 years if the ratio
of births and deaths set by the offi- (
cial figures for the fiscal year 1919
. 20 is maintained. This is indicated
by the report of Dr. F. E. Trotter,
president of the territorial board of
health which shows that during the
year the death of pure-blooded Ha
waiians totaled 1,009, while there were
676 births.
There are approximately 25,000 pure
blooded Hawaiians living on the Ha
waiian islands, according to esti
mates. Reports for past years show
decreases in their numbers.
In marked contrast with the evi- «
dence that the Hawaiians are mem
bers of a “dying race” are the vital
statistics dealing with those who rep
resent mixtures of Hawaiian with
Caucasian and Asiatic blood.
Of the Caucasian-Hawaiians, 249
died during the fiscal year, while
there were 699 births in that section
of the territory's population. The
Asiatic-Hawaiian strain—principally
Chinese-Hawaiian — recorded 103
deaths and 491 births.
The natural increase in the Japan
ese population of the territory during
the year was 3,366. During the year
there were 4,963 births and 1,597
deaths among the Japanese.
CAMPS IN INTERIOR
REPORT BIG YIELD
The Tanana Valley placer mining
district will produce $1,600,000 in gold
this season, according to preliminary
estimates made by Volney Richmond,
general manager for the Northern
Commercial Company, who has just
completed his annual tour of interior
Alaska. Mr. Richmond estimates the
total of gold production for interior
Alaska this year at $2,985,000 and the
Dawson district total at $1,500,000.
The production in practically every
camp has been curtailed to some ex
tent by lack of rainfall, creating a
water which delayed seriously sluicing
operations. Mr. Richmond says that
some of the camps have almost been
put out of business on this account.
Tolovana, during the summer, had
only 11 days of sluicing, that being
in May. Dumps taken out last fall
and winter in that district are still
partly unwashed.
Dredges are operated in the Idita
rod, Ophir-Tacotna, Fairbanks dis
districts, while the Berry dredge in
the Circle district has been shut
down all season. The Bagley scraper
is used considerably in the Fairbanks ,
district and there is much hydraulic
ing on the lower river camps. Tn
the Kantishna, two big hydraulic
plants are being installed, one by
the Mt. McKinley Gold Placers Com
pany, another by Fairbanks capital.
The estimated production by camps {
as given by Mr. Richmond follow:
Fairbanks .$ 750,000

ROMANTIC COMEDY IS
BILLED FOR TONIGHT
Bryant WaShburn and Wanda Haw
ley are the stars in a rapid fire and
charming little romantic comedy
drama, “The Gypsy Trail” booked to- 4
night at the Empress. The picture
has everything that an ideal love story
should comprise—the appeal of young
love, of the woodland road, the gypsy
strain, and the romantic lure. The
action is rapid, light and breezy, and
humorous situations natural and un- i
forced, and the play, as a whole, ranks
as high class entertainment. a
A Pathe News and an education ;
film complete the program.
