Establishment

All prophecies fail, generally,
which are made by people who do
not know what they are talking
about. Whenever any new ven
ture in business is made in Homo
lulu, there are those who decry it
as overworking the field, or, If an
exclusive venture, as having no
adequate field here for its opera
ton. Enterprise and pluck simply
laugh at all such croakings, and
this has been the case with the
