large producer, but would be a still
larger cropper if he could get his prod
uce into the markets at a lower rate,
in which case he would be assured of
profit for his labor, instead of loss, as
at present, or at any rate waste of time
and energy.
The grower in question views the mat
ter in the same light as The AGRICUL-
TURIsT, and as expressed in our edito-
rial columns lately. We do not look
upon transportation companies as rob-
bers and Shylocks. We consider them
merely as business concerns organized
for the purpose of making all the profit
possible from the business in which they
are engaged. We do not object to this.
We know that any business not operated
on this plan will not be success. A
man who engages in business invests his
capital and devotes his time to it, does
SO for the profit; it is presumed that he
will make all the money he can in
legitimate way, and if he neglects to
do this, his business will pass into other
hands in a very short time. So it is
with the transportation companies, and
in discussing the matter, we have not
set up the plea that it was wrong or sim
full for the transportation companies to
make all that they possibly could out of
their business, but to demonstrate to
them, if possible, the fallacy OF their
present system.
Il is generally admitted the continued
and increased development is the only
salvation of the transportation compa-
MES, as we'll as many other business en-
terprises in the State. 1t is certainly as
true that this development will not ma
terialize unless some encouragement is
| offered to the would-be developers. I'm
der the existing conditions, it is impos
sible for the farmer to produce material
for shipment to the northern markets
at profit TIE transportation charges,
the expense of preparing for market
and of marketing are so great that there
is nothing left for the growers when
these expense bills are met. This is ad
mitted Now, the result naturally will
be that the growers must curtail their
production-they will produce only what
their families will consume and what
can be disposed of in the nearby mar
kets. This will be disastrous to the
transportation companies, who must
have business if they expect to live.
The question is, can these companies
afford to carry our produce to the mar
kets at lower rate than they have been
giving, and if they can, will they do it?
If this question is answered in the neg
alive, the next and foremost question is,
what will they do? 1t will be many
years before they will have enough Or
anges to haul to pay for Car grease
The passenger traffic will not pay run
ming expenses, to say nothing of the in
terest on the bonded Indebtedness. AS
we have before said, the railroads and
steamships are in business for the money
they can make. We believe the men
who manage them are wide-awake bust
ness men, fully alive to the situation
and the interest of the capital and the
men they represent. We believe they
will ultimately praSn the Sitl1 atiOn and

WITH THE COFFEE PLANTERS.
Commissioner Armstrong Getting
Points In Kona District.

On Monday, the 4th, Mr.. w. n.
Armstrong, chairman of the Labor
Commission, called the coffee
planters of North Koua together at
Kailua, and held q conference with
them on the subject of labor.
The questions discussed were,
the relative value of the Japanese
and Portuguese labor; the prices
paid for it; the effect on coffee cul-
tivation of any increased price of it (;
the feasibility of encouraging small
farmers from the United States, or
Europe, to settle in the country {;
what the effects of it would be, Soc
tally and politically.
There were many conflicting
views on these subjects. The con-
ference, however, served to bring
out much information on the sub
ject, and will enable the Labor
Commission to outline some policy
on the subject, which will fOster
the coffee industry. The planters
of the district have formed an or
ganization for mutual benefit, which
will bring their interests before the
| Government.

Bicycle Digest.

The Bicycle has established
itself. It is an institution.
Though it has become a neces-
sity OF modern life, it has not
ceased to be a source of pleas
ure and those who ride it for
business purposes still find
their greatest enjoyment in
the saddle.
Taking it for granted that
you have decided to ride, and
naturally want the best wheel
for your money, we wish to
point out to you some of the
superior features of the
BARNES SPECIAL.
One taking and distinctive
feature of the Barnes wheel,
is the method of brazing the
frame joint. When a Bicycle
is reinforced from the outside
it resembles a sore thumb
with a rag around tan apt
but homely simile. Our joint is
not a sore thumb. The con-
nections are punched from
steel formed into pieces of
such sh ape that they encircle
one tube, rendering it doubly
strong and project therefrom
to form a stud at the desired
angle over which the adjoining
tube can he fitted and brazed
firmly. The steel connections
are secured on each side by
secondary pieces, and all of
them brazed as one piece serve
as a pointed reinforcement to
the second tube.
Bearings = First quality tool
steel hardened and ground to
such a degree that there is no
possibility of their becoming
worn. On such grounds as
these fair, franz and honora-

of the bicycle riding public.
An examination will prove
that they are all we C aim for
them.

been secured from his home, the man
was taken there in a hack.
While at police headquarters and
undergoing a hard scraping Godfrey
talked freely about the matter, but
said he could not identify any of the
parties. He youchsafed the informa-
ton that the men maltreated him
shamefully, and after tarring and
featberiDg him, placed rope made of
a handkerchief around the neck and
hung him to tree. Thinking that
he had been done for, the men cut
him down before leaving.
Godfrey bore rather dilapidated
appearance, one eye being black and
bruises about the chest. He claims
that he was beaten into insensibility,
and as consequence could not give
clear account of what occurred.

necessity of the Sabbath to the people.
The plan is FIRST to bring the Chris.

proper stand for them to take on the

"SEE COLONEL NEW"

Harrison's Advice Concerning His Presi-
Dental Aspirations.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Oct. 14.-When ex-
President Harrison was in this city the
other day attending a meeting of the
board of trustees of Purdue university,
of which he is a member, he made
a statement concerning his position
with reference to the presi-
dental nomination, which is probably
as nearly definite expression as can be
had from him. The story has Just
leaked out, and is well authenticated.
Asked by friend in this city if he was
candidate, General Harrison said:
''See Colonel New; he appears to
know all about it,
The general then disclaimed any re-
sponsibility for published articles, and
declined in positive terms to make
known his intentions, ending with the
words:
when you see my signature to any
statement, then you will know it is the
-er-well, the genuine sarsaparilla.
