DAILY HONOLULU PRESS possesses
unequaled advantages, having retained all the
subscribers to the late Saturday Press, in
addition to new subscription list, which is
daily increasing, so that the paper is not only
enjoying large circulation in this city and
vicinity, but is also mailed by every steamer to
subscribers at almost every landing on the
other Islands, and also to foreign countries,
thus combining the advantages of both daily
~ nd weekly editions. The coming month,
especially, our paper will have much large
circulation than all the other daily papers
combined, as we intend sending specimen
copies to every resident on those Islands
who reads English.
