IT is pleasant to see the busy,
bustling streets and the crowds
buying Christmas goods. The chill
dren are just having a " beautiful
time, "as the somewhat slang express
sion goes. The little toddlers are
on the tenter hooks of expectation,
and they haunt the various stores,
feasting their eyes and minds on
the many wonderful things that
are displayed, some of which the
benefcent Santa Claus may be-
stow upon them when the great
evening arrives. The pretty legend
still finds a home in their innocent
hearts, and long may it continue
to do so. In a prosaic age, when
so much of the glamor of life has
been swept away, it is refreshing to
think that some poetic myths are
left to the very young, that life
to them is not series of unalter-
able, angular facts, but that it con-
tains the romantic and the beauti-
full. We pity any one who is not
touched by the dainty and poetic
side of childhood, whose heart does
not expand at least once a year; it |
should expand all the time, but the
hard grubbing for the necessary |
to cIothe and feed the
flock naturally hardens and con-
tracts it.

there are many rich patches which
can only be utilized profitably if
tapped by the railroad. They are
not large enough to put up a mill
for, but the cane can be raised and
then freighted per car to the mill.
This would give an opportunity to
the small capitalist. 1t would be
carrying out the cooperative idea,
and it Is in cooperation that part
of the agricultural safety Of the
country lies.
But it Is not only the sugar in
dustry that we must look at. Think
OF Oahu with 80 acres of cleared
land for coffee. % acres Of newly
planted trees, 81 acres Of trees from
1 to 3 years old and about 10 acres
OF trees in bearing. Coffee grows as
well here as any where, and with
proper inducements the coffee area
here might be made of vast impor-
lance, and yet at the present mo-
ment there are but 1876 acres in
cultivation for this product.
We want a proper beaureau OF
for this island as well
as for the whole group. We should
be able to take out settlers and
show them the lands, let them see
the means of transport and the
advantages of living within easy |
reach of the city. Human beings are
wanted, not hoofs and horns,
human beings who will need lum-
Der, hardware, dry goods, who will
want schools, who will pay taxes
and enable the state to grow to its
proper proportions. Again we say
develop Oahu!

THE exercises at the Kameha-
meha schools yesterday were the
yearly tribute paid by the reel
pients of the bounty Of the late
chiefess Bernice Pauahi Bishop.
Any one who visits that spacious
domain on which the schools are
located, who sees the youths,
bright, intelligent, well trained,
both morally and physically, will
acknowledge how wisely the late
chiefess provided for the spending
of her wealth after her decease.
The Kamehameha schools will be
more enduring than their own
walls. The influence Of the schools
will be felt in every town and
hamlet of the group. Already
have the graduates of the boys
school taken a prominent stand for
advancing the good of their own
race. As time rolls on intelligent
and well trained helpers in the
work of social and moral advance
ment will come from the girls
school, which has only been re-
Gently opened, The memory of |
Mrs. Bishop should not only be
hOnored by the schools, but should
be held in sweet remembrance by
every one on the islands, who has
the true interest of the country
and its people at heart. She was a
noble woman and her deeds live
after her.

DEVELOP THE ISLAND.

We have in Honolulu a large
number of property holders and
merchants. These all desire that
the value of their property should
increase, not lessen that their
business should increase, and not be
merely divided. Such people must
look ahead, and their best means
OF looking ahead is to develop their
own island. We of Oahu are deeply
interested in the development of
every island in the group. The
more development of Hawaii, Maui
and Kauai there is, the better for
us who form a part of the whole,
but while taking a deep interest in
the other islands, we have clearly
neglected our own island.
We have here an island with a
fine strip or ribbon of fiat land
skirting almost the whole shore.
We have deep and fertile valleys
running up into mountains by
no means inaccessible or sterile.
The total area is 600 square miles.
Let US compare this with the island
of Mauritius, whose climatic con-
ditions are somewhat similar to
ours. With an area of 700 square
miles and with mountain masses
far more broken and rugged than
ours, that island supports a popu-
lation OF $4,000 people. We, with
an area one-sixth less, support a
population of a little over 10000
people. The length OF railway on
Mauritius Is eighty-seven miles,
and it Is so constructed that it taps
every part of the island. The con-
sequence Is that in sugar alone
over 100000 tons are raised an
nually.
One primary need we have here
is to push forward the railroad and
thus properly develop our shore
line. When the Eva plantation
was first talked OF, it was at once
said that the soil was of no use; that
was proved to be wrong. Then
there was no water; it was pumped
up and an ample supply obtained.
Then it was too expensive, and yet
today Eva plantation can make,
and does make, sugar as cheap as
such old-established and favorably
situated estates as Hamakuapoko
and Paia. Besides the large tracts
