A New Industry.

Articles Of incorporation have recently
been filed, says the Oregonisn, for the
Gum Portable Roller Mill Manufacture
ing Company. w. F. Gum has pat
ented a Touring mill with capacity of
"a barrels per day, with lO-horse power.
The mill occupies space Of only feet
wide, 3 feet high AMI 8 feet long, and it
makes as good quality as the largest
mills. The company proposes to manu-
faCture the mills in this city. The inn
portance Of this invention is apparent.
The wheat grower will not only save the
freight on his wheat and flour, but will
secure for himself the offal These two
items will soon pay the cost of the mill.
The convenience ~ well as the profit Of
having a small mill in localities distant
from larger mills will figure extensively
in their demand. The company has al
ready secured orders for mills and will
commence work az soon as suitable To-
cation il secured. 1t promises having
one in operation at its factory in a short
time and all interested may see it in
operation.

lie claimed that at present these
were more hono-cd in the breach
than in the observance. It was
proposed now 10 organize a sports

A NOTED VISITOR.
DIR. WHITE. OF CALIFORNIA,
SAYS SOME KIND WORDS
ABOUT HAWAII AND
HER PEOPLE.
He Believes in the Theory of
Segregation of Lepers.

Among the passengers leaving
for the Coast tomorrow by the
Australia will be DR.. P. Nj. White
and wife. DR.. White enjoys the repu-
tation as one Of the most eminent
physicians on the Pacific Coast,
| and resides at Los Angeles, Cal,
where he has built up large and
lucrative practice, Consequent
upon the arduous duties connected
with his practice compelled the
doctor to take a few weeks holi-
day, and having heard much in
praise of these islands, concluded
to visit them.
He has been in Honolulu for
nearly three weeks, and is very en-
thusiastic over the country, its
people and its possibilities. DR.,
White, like the majority of the in
telligent visitor here, is of opinion
that the only hope of these islands
lies in annexation to the United
States, and, should this be accom-
plished, predicts an era of pros
perity for the country, even beyond
the hope of the most sanguine.
In conversation with an ADvER-
User reporter yesterday, Dir. White
spoke in the highest terms of the
gentlemen who constitute the board
of health, and paid a fitting tribute
to the zeal of the officers of
that branch of the government.
Touching the quarantine system in
vogue here, DR.. White pronounces
it to be the most effective of any
he has ever seen. Through the
courtesy of Executive Officer c. B.
the doctor paid a visit
to the Kalihi receiving station yes
terday and made an examination
Of several Of the lepers now at that
place, and believes the system Of
to be the only effec-
tive means of stamping out the |
dread disease of leprosy. Dr. |
White desired the reporter to re-
turn his thanks to Messrs. w. 0. |
Smith, J. F. Low, c. B. Reynolds |
and Charles Wilcox, for the many
3ourtesies extended him during his |
short stay in the city.
A more genial gentleman than
DR.. White would be hard to find,
and the ADVERTISER trusts Homo
ulu has not seen the last of him
and his most excellent wife, and |
wishes them safe and pleasant |
