EXTENDING WINE MARKETS.
California Vineyardists Will be Bene-
fitted by Annexing Hawaii.

The California vineyardists are elated at
the turn the Hawaiian affairs have taken.
The Sandwich Islands have always been
fair market for the products OF the States
vineyards, and they reason that if the islands
are annexed to the United States their trade
will be greatly improved. The import
duties. though small, will be- removed. This
duiy-it is not highs serious enough to
add greatly to the cost of the wines when
placed for sale In the little kingdom. With
Hawaii as an integral part Of the Union
and the duty removed there will be great
deal more of the California wines consumed
in Honolulu and other parts of the Islands
than there is now.
During the last year the trade fell off a
little from previous years, owing TO the
quiet condition of business there, which did
not allow consumers to purchase as much
as they would have liked. In 1889 the value
of the wines consumed in Hawaii from
