any person or company TO establish an interisland
steam line. 4 liberal subsidy has been voted
by the Legislature, of ten thousand dollars a year
fr weekly steam service between Honolulu and
Hilo, touching at immediate ports and FIVE thou
sand dollars for weekly steam service around the
island of Kauai. The distance from Honolulu 10
Hilo Is two hundred miles, bat as the vessel must
make the tripnearlyi fnot quitea rouni Hawaii, the
route would embrace FIVE or six hundred miles to
be performed once 4 week The distance on the
KauaI route, touching at all the ports is les than
three hundred miles. With boats of the right
caIacity, and with ample capital, it is believed
that The service would pay any parties who might
IN it. No term of service is named in the
but probably a contract could be secured for
ten or even twenty wears, If desired.
