Yesterday afternoon there was a serious
runaway accident at Takoma, in which Mrs
James r. King, who resides on Grant ave-
nue., was painfully injured. She was driv-
ing along Carroll avenue, when her horse
became frightened. The noise made by an
approaching train caused the fright. and
the horse ran beneath the gates. which were
being lowered. Soon after crossing the
tracks the vehicle upset. and Mrs. King
was thrown violently to the ground. While
her injuries are painful, they are not re-
garded as serious. Mrs. King was assisted
home by friends, and the demolished buggy
was sent to the shop.

DEVELOPMENT OF OAHU.

Mr.. Dillingham; speaks timely work
in the interest of the Island Of Oahu,
as he can always be depended upon TO
do. There are those who will form the
opinion that he paints the picture in
too brilliant coIors, but it is the men
of ultra-enthusiastic ideas who have
headed progressive movements in every
country. There is no reason why the
business men of Honolulu shoul dhold
to the idea that Oahu has reached it's
limit so far as it's power of production
is concerned, and there is every reason
why they should favor the development
of new agricultural industries here.
Honolulu today is relying altogether
from the other Islands. Its business
men seem to forget oftentimeS that the
day is coming when in their trade re-
lations the other Islands will become
less dependent upon this port. But leav-
ing this question aside, why should
good. arabic land, suited to the cultiva-
ton of sugar and coffee, to say nothing
of canaigre and other products which
the active mind of Commissioner Mars
den may demonstrate the value of, be
left for the cattle or lantana to roam
over, when by the application of lit
tie money and brains the land can be
made to produce good return? Oahu
/ has the principal port of entry; it Is
| in closer touch with the trans-Pacltit
| trade than any other Island; it has a
railroad that will some day tap every
| coffee gulch and sugar field on the ISL
and, and the cost of handling produce
will be much less than in any other dis
trict in the country. Why is it, then
that in opening up new districts the
pioneer should fail to give this section
of the country careful attention? Prob
ably the answer is found in the genera
disposition of the Anglo-Saxon to seek
out the larger fields in which to cut 6
! dash. rather than center attention or
matters in the close vicinity. 1t is fol
the interest of the Honolulu merchant
to favor local development, as by so do,
ing they are in the center of trade that
cannot be diverted to other channels
They are now the center of the inter,
Island circle, but if they create an Oahu
industrial circle, new strength is added
to their position.
