VARIED INDUSTRIES.

Putting all ones eggs into one
basket is proverbially risky piece of
business. The chance of loss by break
age is very considerable. Hawaiians
have done so heretofore, with the
usual result. They relied upon sugar
as paying crop under all conditions,
and they have been met by over
production and a glut in the worlds
market. They have learnt the lesson
that it is supply, and not tariff,
which regulates prices. OF course
short crop, backed by tariff discrim-
ination in its favor, would prove en-
inently satisfactory, but as a business
proposition it would be unwise to act
as if the exception were the rule.
This our planters did to very great
extent, and they now understand the
weakness of their position thor
oughly.
But lift can be shown that there are
chances for making money other than
by raising sugar cane promiscuously,
and adopting every new improve
ment in machinery which promises
to economic labor and increase re-
suits, we think it is our duty to indi-
cate them. In previous issues we
mentioned cotton and coffee planting.
To this we might add tobacco-culture,
rice (greatly increased), fruit, nuts,
grapes and wine, and honey. The
extent to which most of these indus
tries have been developed in Califor-
MIA is simply astonishing, and the
money which it helps TO keep in cir
culation represents a very large sum
annually. Last seasons vintage in
California was about 100000 gal
Ions; this seasons vintage is estimated
at 100000 gallons wine, owing to
the quantity of new vineyards coming
into bearing. But apart from this
important industry, which keeps
several thousand men fully employed
the year round, the following extract
from the trade report of leading San
Francisco firm will demonstrate what
can be done in other directions
"George w. Meade & Co. give the
product of honey, nuts and dried fruit
in California, in 1884, as follows
Honey, extracted, 1854, 900 lbs; honey,
comb, 1885,, 900 beeswax, 100000
prunes, French, 1,524,OOO; prunes,
German, $4,000; apples, sun-dried,
1900, 600; peaches, sun-dried, 100000
pluns, sundried, 100000; pears, sun
dried, $4,000; grapes, sun-dried, $50,
900; apricots, sun-dried, 10000 nee
tarines, sun-dried, 10000; figs, sun
dried, $4,000; raisins, 2O-tb boxes
175,OOO; evaporated apples, 100000;
evaporated apricots, 100000; evapor-
ated peaches, $4,000; evaporated
plums, $4,000; walnuts, 10000
almonds, 100000; peanuts, 5O,OO09}
This grand result is the fruit OF
comparatively recent growth. Core
spondingly favorable results might be
counted upon in the Hawaiian archi-
pelago if our people would only set
about the work in earnest, as citizens
in California did. The conditions
making for success in these Islands
are quite as favorable as those which
existed in California.

CALIFORNIA WINES FOR HONOLULU.

The San Francisco Merchant has an ,
article on this subject, in its issue of ,
the 9th ultimo, in which it remarks !
that its "efforts to open up this
market for California wines are being
appreciated. One local firm lit adds)
has for months past shipped wine to
Honolulu by every steamer. The
wine-makers in the leading counties
are now taking prompt steps to in
troduce their wines direct from their
cellars to the consumers in Honolulu,
and to the different islands of the
Kingdom This can easily be done,
and it will prove peculiarly beneficial
to both maker and consumer, besides
being a great sanitary blessing to the
latter"
We entirely agree with the Mer-
chant in this remark. It would
greatly tend to promote temperance
if the consumption Of light California
wines were general on these islands.
The truth is that the duty on Califor-
MIA wines should be merely nominal,
or RENTED altogether. Were this
done, we would hear no more of OPP
position on the Coast to reciprocity
with Hawaii. As a matter of policy,
| therefore, quite apart from the social
and sanitary side Of this question, we
| hold that the Legislature, at its uext
session, should discriminate in favor
of California wines, taking care, how
ever, to provide against the introduce
ton of adulterated or made wines.
| The Merchant suggests that wine
| shipments to this country should
be direct from the cellars of the
makers, and should not pass through
| the hands of middlemen in San Fran
! cisco. This is a sensible suggestion.
It's effect would be to cheaper the
genuine article. Our contemporary
| estimates the cost of sound table
wines at the cellars at 80 cents per
gallon, and adds 80 cents additional
for freight and other charges. This
would make the cost go cents pei
gallon at Honolulu. "A gallon OF
wine," the Merchant remarks, "is
equal to thirty ordinary glasses,
This gives the price of each glass
consumed in Honolulu at 2 cents
The price of every drink consumed
over bar in that city is 25 cents
! Allowing, for the sake of argument
that California wines will cost 5 cents
glass on delivery, then it would
pay the importer hundred per cent
profit to retail at 10 cents, and the
purchaser would save one hundred
and fifty per cent. on each drink o
California wine as against drink o
beer or spirits of good or doubtful
quality. The gain to his health
could be reckoned by insurance NOR
tality tables"
We need not pursue this subJec
further. The consideration of rev
enue should be discarded from tn
discussion. It would tend to promot
the health and well-being of tn
native population, to wean then
from the use of the poisonous drink
| to which they are accustomed, b.
rendering it possible for them t.
obtain wholesome light wine at
reasonable price and it would like
| wise create such strong support TO
; the Island trade in California a
would very soon stamp out intereste
; | opposition to the treaty.

(being bare when at work. have all
sorbed a wonderful amount of metal
poison. Having a %scrofulous tend
ency from my youth, the small par
ticles of copper and brass would get
into the sores, and by this process
the poison was conveyed into my
blood till my whole system became
infected. | was treated with the
old remedies of mercury and iodide
potassium. Salvation folio wed, my
teeth are all loose in my head, my
digestive organs deranged, and |
have been helpless in bed for over
a year with mercurial rheumatism.
