pity; for no better representative
could he chosen. lie is wcll-informed
about the country, its resources, in
dustries, products, capabilities, ETC.,
and can furnish large amount of
information that will naturally be
inquired for by visitors to the Hawa-
iian department at the Exhibition.
Whoever is sent should be well
posted about the islands; for | take
it that the man in charge will have
more to do than the exhibits in the
way of enlightening visitors. Where
there is large showing made people
look and pass on; but when they
come to small country, whose cx-
hi5its occupy a small space, they are
more inquisitive and ask many
questions. This was very noticeable
at the Philadelphia Exhibition.
People would hang for hours around
the Hawaiian show, and when they
found Mr.. Hitchcock, the gentleman
in charge, ready TO answer all in
quiries they asked all kinds of
questions. No doubt, the same thing
will be repeated at the coming show,
and Mr.. Webb would fill the bill
admirably. AN AMERICAN.

THE UNIVERSAL EXPOSITION.

EDITOR BULLETIN Il am glad that
little Hawaii is to he represented in
the New Orleans Exposition, and
that our Government are doing what
they can to excite public enthusiasm
and secure contributions of exhibits.
1t is impossible for the Government
to accomplish much in a matter of
this kind without cooperation of the
public; therefore, let us hope that
the public will do its part. To arouse
enthusiasm for anything except a
spree or q scandal in this community
is hard work; but it would he truly
refreshing to find that matter so
largely affecting the country as q
creditable exhibit of its products
abroad had enlisted the practical in
tereSt of those most concerned. All
that newspapers and books combined
can do to give an idea abroad of the
capabilities of the country can't COM
pare with making n good showing at
the coming Industrial Exposition in
New Orleans. If our people wish
the outside world to see and learn
something of our products and in
dustries, let them set vigorously to
work to prepare their exhibits. 1t
is only stupid excuse to say that it
is now too late. Certainly, an earlier
beginning would have been better.
But between now and the 27th in
stant-the time | see mentioned in
the Government notitication-a great
deal can be done, if the thing is
earnestly taken up. The country is
small, and opportunities of sending
to Honolulu from its remotes, parts
will occur before the 27th.
In conclusion, would suggest
that the various printing establish
mcnts of Honolulu send forward
specimens of their capabilities. The
daily, weekly, and monthly journals,
