An Examination.

ED. P. G. ADvERT1sER-Sir: The report
of a conversation with me, published in
the P. C. ADVERTISER yesterday, does not
express my precise sentiments. While I
do not take the extreme views held by
some, I am opposed to the granting of
liquor licenses generally. Ny sentiments
would perhaps be better expressed by say
ing, not that I am glad the license is
granted for Wailuku instead of Kahului,
but that am very sorry that it is granted
for place so near us as Waikiki is.
Again, while do not wish to say any
thing against Mr.. Marlin, yet I do not
think any man responsible who would
consent to open liquor saloon in dis
trict where all the respectable portion of
the community are opposed to it. The
influence of liquor on plantations is de-
moralizing. We frequently see men
there, as well as elsewhere, victims to
drink; and no one should know this bet
ter than Mr.. Marlin, who, when he held a
responsible position on large plantation,
must have seen men who had risen by
merit fall from the use of liquor. Yours,
truly,
E. NJ. WALSH.

THE BANANA TRADE.


This trade has been steadily deveI-
oped since the Oceanic Steamship
Company's fine line of vessels began
running between Honolulu and San
Francisco. A little was done before
that by the Australian steamers, but
it was the o. s. Company's vessels
that gave the impetus TO banana pro-
duction. San Francisco is the great
market for this superb fruit, and we
perceive, from a recent interview
published by the Chronicle, that it is
duly appreciated on the Coast. The
fruit merchant interviewed stated
that San Francisco received from
Honolulu at least 900, 900 bananas a
month, or some $500 punches. The
merchant interviewed said his house
took half the total imports, that is
about 225,000 bananas every two
weeks, on the arrival of the direct
steamships. One sample bunch Of
very fine fruit the dealer said he sold
at 81 wholesale. The retailer made
very little profit that is, by selling
the fruit at three for dime, he would
make 50 60 on the sample bunch,
making the price So Ito consumers.
This fact proves that there is money
in raising and exporting bananas.
The merchant interviewed by our
San Francisco contemporary also
stated that the demand was so great
that three days after the arrival of a
shipload there would not be a single
banana left in his warehouse. This
fact is assuring. 1t should stimulate
production.

A Prosperous Plantation.

Parties who have lately come down from
the other islands, and our correspondent as
we'll, report good rains in all the districts
where cane is grown. This means large
crops and q certain measure Of prosperity to
our planters. To illustrate the value of
large crops, it may be mentioned that at the
Hamakuapako plantation on Maui, once
known as Haiku No. 2, the mill is taking of
So CHARTERS of juice per day, and this sea-
sons crop is estimated at 5000 tons. Under
the able management of Mr.. n. P. Baldwin,
who has concentrated Haiku Nos. / and 2, at
HamakuapOko, the plantation has been very
prosperous. and is in fair way to extiuguish
the debt incurred in its construction at an
early date.

Last Sunday morning, a party of native
boys, some seven in number, took one of the
boats that ply in this harbor, and fitting it
with sail, went down to Pearl river harbor.
They arrived there safely and started back
again about o'clock p. M, in company
with row boat. The latter parted company
with the first one at Halawa, aud pulled up
to town, going inside the reef. From that
time the sail boat, with its occupants, had
not been heard Of. Early yesterday
morning, the Minister of the Interior be-
ing notified of the continued absence of the
boat and the boys. ordered Captain John
Rice to get up steam on the tug Eleu. and
go in search of the missing boat. About
10 o'clock a. m, the tug being provisioned
for two days, started for the westward, in
tending to keep in the tract of the currents,
by which the boat would probably be car
ried away With. Captain Rice received
orders to remain out until tonight
If he did not pick up the boat before that.
Inasmuch as quite blin1ing rain squall
swept over the harbor on Sunday night
about the time the boat in question might
be expected to reach here, grave fears were
felt for its safety, and the lives of its occu-
pants. But just as the Eleu was moving
out of the hsrbor, the missing boat was
seen coming in, and the Eleu turned back.
1t seems that the boys started from Eva at
the time previously designated, but after
the row boat left them they were afraid they
might be becalmed in the night, or blown
of shore. They therefore made for the
shore and remained all night, tarting
again early this morning.

is concerned. The aggregate values
for the two periods named were as

March quarter, 1884. 800. ....... 2,408, 819
Increase. .................... S23O, 1854
Coming to details, we find that the
movement of domestic produce indi-
Gates a decline in exports of all
important commodities except sugar
and WOOL. The increased ship
n1ent of sugar, comparing the two
quarters, was l3,252,s54 pounds.
There was an increased export
of 21,558 pounds wool, 924 sheep
skins, 887 boxes dried bananas, and
81 punches fresh bananas. The de-
crease is suggestive. Molasses fell off
by %, 476 gallons; no paddy was ex-
ported, although 1924 pounds were
sent abroad in the first quarter of
1884; and our rice export was 414, 500
pounds short of the export for the
corresponding period last year. The
total rice export for the first quarter
of 1885 was 2,171, 400 pounds. Only
800 pounds coffee were sent out of the
country against 900 pounds in the
March quarter of 1884. There were 1852
goatskins less shipped this year than
last also 76I fewer hides and 81 calf
skins, while the export Of betel leaves
for the March quarter of 1884 ex-
ceeded the first quarter of this year
by Is boxes.
We go into these details to impress
upon our fellow citizens the i'm pera-
tive necessity for increasing produc-
ton in these islands. It's progress
depends upon its agricultural devel-
opment. While it is of the utmost
Importance to produce sugar to the
largest possible extent, all our indus
trial energies should not be concen-
trated upon single crop. There are
wide areas of country untitled for
sugar cultivation which would grow
the finest kind of fruit, for which
there Is an unfailing demand on the
Coast and in the Australian colonies.
These should be utilized.
