GuaVa jelly.
REFORM.

Mr.. EDITOR Some weeks ago 1 saw
an article in your paper recommending
the manufacture of guava jelly as an
industry for these Islands. l commenced
making jelly myself in 1884, thinking to
raise by this means little money for
my church and schools. Perhaps the
following may be OF use to anyone about
to enter into the business.
The prices quoted are the net cost in
Kona, after paying freight and carriage;
lib. tins made in Honolulu, including
boxes, each Oh cents; Lib tins made in
San Francisco, including boxes, 81 cents.
Cube sugar by the box, per Id. 12c. lin
1854. Dry granulated sugar by the bbl.,
per 10. 71ac. Gin 1850. l use IA lbs. of
sugar to l Id. of guava juice; and I can
put up in two days, when the fruit is
plentiful, s dozen tins; gathering and
cooking the fruit, one day: straining
during the night, and cooking the Juice
with sugar, and canning, the next day.
l consider, when fruit is plentiful and
sugar at its lowest, l can put the Jelly
into the market Gin the San Francisco
tins) at $2.75 per dozen in cases of four
.iozens, leaving a margin of about % per
cent. for profit and loss. At first asked
1878 per dozen but l have reduced the
price to $2.75, by the case, and wish to
sell out. have now about six cases ON
hand. I send you q sample of it. l pre-
sumo If the sugar was imported direct in
large quantities, and tinman kept con-
stantly employed on the spot making
tins when there was no canning TO be
done, it could be put up at much less
cost. In hona the guavas are generally
in season IN April and October, which is
before and after the season OF the pine
apples. so that both might be worked by
the same staff.

SINCE the departure of the Australia
on Tuesday of last week. there has been
4 great deal OF sharp criticism heard
about town, based upon the apparent
fact that delinquent debtor had been
able 10 snap his fingers at his creditors.
and sail serenely away under the protec-
tion OF a Foreign Office passport The
case as commonly stated and understood
seeming 10 be one which required ex-
PLANTATION, we have taken the trouble to
inquire into the facts, and find them
TO be as follows. Section 45S of the
Civil Code reads: The Minister of
Foreign Affairs may issue passports to
all ministers, diplomatic agents, and
Consuls OF the King, sent abroad, and 10
consuls and other commercial agents of
foreign governments, and to all subjects
OF the Kingdom going abroad, who NAV
desire the same" In accordance with
the provisions OF this section. Mr..
Graenhalgh, who by receiving letters of
denization was invested with all the
rights of subject of the Kingdom, APP
piled at the Foreign Office for a passport.
explaining that such document would
be of material advantage TO him in the
business upon which he was going
abroad. The transaction being perfectly
legal, and there being no reason for re-
fusing, it was promised that the pass
port should be issued. Before it was
actually delivered, however. protest in
due form was filed with the Foreign Min
lister by one of Mr.. Graenhalgh's credi-
tors, and accordingly, when that gentle
man called or sent for his passport, he
was told that he could not have it.
About half an hour before the time adj
vertised for the sailing of the steamer,
MIR. g. came to the Foreign Office,
accompanied by the attorney of the
party on whose behalf the protest had |
been made, and the attorney, then and |

brought down to $1,OO7 in 1882: The
only saloons not closed out by the law
were in Lebanon. She threw up her
charter, and so got rid of her saloons,
and in 1883 her felony cost was only
$342. But the courts decided that

"Another wonderful discovery has

this county. Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and for seven years
she withstood its severest tests, but
her vital organs were undermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed necessarily and
could not sleep. She bought of US a
bottle of DR.. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption and was so much re-
lieved on taking first dose that she
slept all nighl and with one bottle has
been miraculously cured. Her name
is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus write w.

Sorgum Sugar.

Register a welcome call Saturday.
Mr.. Musser was returning from a bust.
ness trip to points where his firm has,
or is contemplating putting in, salt or
sugar Machinery. He Is enthusiastic
over the success of the sugar industry
at Fort Scott and throughout the state
and Gays the number of plants his
house will put in next year will only
be limited by their capicity to get out
the machinery. This is the firm that
furnished the machinery for the COVER
ment experiments, after the german
plant had proven a failure.
AS general thing we don't believe
voting bonds, especially for Railroads
but it is sometimes q good business
policy to 60 in debt and we think
few townships in this vicinity could
make big money by raising funds in
this way to build q sugar factory.
There is no doubt but it will pay bet
ter than any other enterprise we can
undertake. With q sugar factory in
successful operationevery farmer with
in reach can annually realize in cash
the full value of every acre Of land that
he plants in cane. 1t is a crop that
never fails. 1t depends less upon the
season than any thing we can plant,
it requires less attention and can be
harvested with less labor than any,
thing else. The profits Of sugar max
ing will come directly to every man in
the neighborhood of a factory, and al.
together it is the thing to which we
can look to help out short corn and
wheat crops, furnish steady and reli.
able source of revenue and the sooner
the county takes the matter I'D, the
better.
