the value of property and tend TO make the district what it should be,
second in wealth and importance to none other in the Kingdom.
The Commission believe that many of the improvements recon-
mended for the Hamakua and Hlo Districts, should be begun as soon
carry them on and give an impetus to enterprise, especially with
regard to mills to grind on shares cane raised by small cutlvators.
Natives show a commendabe zeal to cultivate on their own account,
which should be encouraged wherever possible. Immediate steps
should also be taken for the introduction OF laborers, that enterprises
may be undertaken, and especially to bring into the Kingdom a class
of people who would bring their families and perhaps assimnlate
with the Hawaiian race. Probably in India such could be found,
and the Commission would earnestly recommend that Government
lands be reserved to give such, if after completing their contracts of
service they would settle on them and cultivate them. As in the
case of Hamakua District, good lands ire spoken of rs cane lands o II
coffee lands; but these lands are adapted to the cultivation, in many
places, of oranges, lines and other fruits. Forests O Sumach are
growing wild, and IS this has been said to be the Sumach of COM
merce, which when prepared for tanning purposes is worth in Cali
have some prepared for shipment to ascertain its quality and value.
California now receives its supplies from distant Sicily, while proba-
bly, the forests of Hamakua and Hilo could supply the whole of the
demand of the northwest coast of America. Doubtless many other
dustrious population enjoyed the advantages of these districts. The
position which these islands occupy to the west coast of America IS
its main source Of supply in the future of sugar, rice, coffee, &C.,
guarantee n permanency of values, which should give capital every
enter boldly and unhesitatingly into measures to develop these e
sources, and trust confidently to the increasing value of property TO
meet the expenses of such improvements. The Districts of Hlo and
Hanakua should support a population Of 10000 to ptUW n the
grants and inducing the settlement of these districts by the improve
nents suggested, will be fully returned to the Government in the
increasing revenues of the districts.
Good roads and bridges should be literally supplied to the Hilo
District. The roads at present are not we'll cared for.
