Hawaii as a Producing Country,
and the Workings of the Reel.
prociIy reary.

In casting our eyes over the pages of
Thrum's Hawaiian Almanac and Annual for
1879, We find well written article from the
pen Of the publisher entitled "The Hawaiian
Islands as Sugar Producing Country" from
which we extract some important facts which
90 to show the gradual increase of the sugar
production of these Islands. The figures on
this subject show the significant fact III at dur
ing the past nine months of the present year,
there has been an increase of q plantations,
and of the sugar crop sent to market 4,e7s,-
$50 lbs. over the year 1877. But this only
relates to the article of sugar, which while it
Is acknowledged TO be the principal staple Of
the Islands is but one production. In the
culture of sugar cane great impetus has been
given to this industry by the reciprocity treaty,
aud vast sums Of money have been invested
from which no return can possibly come for at
least another year. But at the end of the
year 1879. it viii be apparent to all that the
increase of the sugar crop Of Hawaii will be
so large that it will astonish even the most
sanguine friends of the treaty as well as its
enemies.
We are aware that complaint is made even
from higt quarters in the United States, that
the workings of the treaty has operated against
the United States in dollars and cents, if we
take merely the Custom House figures of the
latter country, as given upon few articles of
export from that country. Il seems strange
that the Honorable Secretary of the Treasury
Of the United States, in his opposition to the
treaty should overlook several important
facts, namely: first, the increase in the pro-
duction Of sugar on these Islands during nine
months of the present year, and second, the
Importance Of the trade growing up between
these Islands and the State of Oregon and
I Washington Territory in the lumber business,
which comes to Hawaii duty free under the
Treaty, but also the prospective trade between
the Islands aud the ports of New York and
Boston. now having reunlar lines of packet
/ ships plying between these ports and Homo
/ lulu. From all we can learn about the work
/ ings Of the treaty, we are convinced that no
unparalleled mind can Be affected unfavora-
bly, toward it, even upon the present trial, and
that when fair, candid and careful e1amina-
tion Of the workings Of the treaty is made, it
viii be found to be as favorable to the inter-
I ests Of America as to Hawaii, indeed, that the
maximum Of adv sntage viii be on the side Of
the United States. We have no figures from
the Gus tom House to refer to at present, but
go soon as we obtain the data from the COL
lectOr General we viii lay them before the pub
lie, and we feel convinced that his figures will
show growing prosperity alike advantageous
to both countries.
