to make any item, q interes, which have Is
eapcd their notice, and vet with the rush and
tear In which your people arc most happy
while here, many matters may have passed by
which would be seen only by ourselves
Right here would ask Why it is that all the

AZ their rooms, can barely speak when they
meet un me street. and on returning toI
their hotel generally find basketiul oil

Perhaps it Dee, in the fact that your climate
does not admit Of much escttion and our bra

exercise and more npidity generally. Col.

CLIMATE
Talking Of your climate, it is amusing TO
hear persons talk Of how very uncomfortable ii
must be IN llonolulu-so hot, SO trying, and
what radical change must be made in cloth
ing and life generally, when instead Of all this
you have no such unpleasantly hot weather as we
have close nj hand, say in Texas, where it is a
reasonable statement that the thermometer
rates from toto 20 degrees higher than with
you, while sitting wind obtains which rarely
Il ever visits your islands. Texas is good
country 90 make money in, bu, tough place
for permanent residence, while your lovely eli.
mate for mos, months Of the year gives but
little to complain OF, and will be a favorite
place Of resort when the facilities for reaching
you are increased as promised in the new
steamers Of the Oceanic Line, which are eS.
pected, according to the reports, in few
months, the same source noting the sailing to
your port of another steamer to act in conjunc.
tion with the .Sncs, though some OF the know.
ing ones claim the line is losing five thousand
dollars per trip, at present
TREATY MATTERS.
The associated press reports from Washington
talk very positively about the Treaty, tn,
Chy@fislr claiming great opposition by thoS,
able to influence matters while the genera
tenor Of all other dispatches seems strongly il
favor ofts continuance but as you will see
the whole matter will be settled definitely il
January, probably in time to report by mex
steamer. In relation to other Powers bein,
ready TO assume the same position towards Ha
waii now occupied by this country, we hav,
decided statement to-day as coming from Al
authoritative source, that the Treaty 'TH b
continued il for nothing else than for its posi-
ton commercially and also because England
stands ready to make similar IL not bette
terms than are now enjoyed. As a rule | d,
not isnd the people of California fear any alb
rogation The hgh, is made by the Eastern
sugar folks entirely, and they will spend man,
dollars to have their way, but its "force,
put and that they will not carry their point i
the general impression here at least. Sir Clau
Spreckcls seems to be their red flag and int
this frenzy have they wrought themselves, an,
it Is probably by their instgation that sucl
items are inserted as "Spreckels has drive
out of the business every rehner in san Fran
