"Tm not the doctor, and, of course,
if you say there is nothing wrong you

one remedy that all the sufferers that

as that all the nations of the world

''It is very plain to me that if half
the gold produced in the world is used
as money and if that money use was
suddenly stopped and all nations said
that gold was not money and need not
be taken in payment of debts, that the

"Then, you will have to admit that
the reason twenty-three grains of gold

because one-half the gold is used as

''It has this to do with it: You bring
two charges against silver, that it is
cheap and that it is dishonest. Now,
if these charges are true, it is very
clear to me that it is not the fault of
silver, but it is the fault Of the way
silver has been treated. Heap as much
unfriendly legislation on gold as there
is on silver and twenty-three grains Of

Few tourists. and, indeed, few resi-

whirl amid the loveliness and grandeur
ever present before the eyes Of the
patron of nature in Hawaii, TO consider |
to visit, to appreciate one spot, high in
the blue. from which most beautiful
panorama of mountains, valleys and
variegated scenery meets the wondering
eve at every turn. Honolulu, the pail,
the lovely parks, the cool zephyrs'
shading groves and delightful bathing
resorts along the beach at Waikiki, Pearl

many push forward and up to the sum

neighboring peaks and evergreen hills
that break off ON several sides and slope
away. in clcar-cut ridges toward the sea,
stands in its solitary grandeur seldom

leeward side of its crest, 2iOO feet above

built on the mdia-Americau style, with
its accompanying garden OF tropic fruits,

somewhat broken by other peaks, their
sharp outlines cut against the Southern

THE SUBSIDY QUESTION

The Hol0maa objects to any i'm
provement of the subsidized steam
ship service between here and the
coast on the following grounds
The fact remains though that these
islands are yet very Insignificant and
that comparison of the demands that
reasonably can be made by the San
Francisco Honolulu communication
and trade with those proper for the
New-York- Europe business is more than
absurd.
No such comparison is sought
The STAR has not urged the build
ing or purchase Of a hundred or
more swift steamers to ply between
Honolulu and San Francisco but
it has said and sticks to it that
there is enough traffic on the local
ferry between here and the coast,
to say nothing of the business
which modern passenger facilities
would create, to warrant the service
of one first-class vessel. The bust
ness of the Islands is constantly
growing and time and again the
Oceanic line has had to leave Ho-
nolulu-bound freight on its San
Francisco dock to await the depart
IRE Of later steamer than the one
to which the freight was consigned.
Yet we are expected to rely and
keep relying, on the same old Aus
tralia that we had a decade and
more ago and are compelled be-
sides, to witness the success of the
device of the subsidized line to keep
the Pacific Mail and the O. and O.
from doing business here.
What we ask is that the Govern
ment shall, instead of handing over
a monthly subsidy to Spreckels
from August Ist to the crack of
doom, offer the bonus for the ser
vice Of a frst-class rather than a
fourth-class steamer and give all
available lines a chance to bid. In
that way some progress may be
had in a matter which is highly
important to Hawaii and one in
which the best interests of the
country have been long neglected.
