Wheeling Event.

Pat Silva was wheeling along on
Fort street yesterday afternoon when
a baby carriage, with the usual burden
in it, and pushed by the fond Japanese
mother, came into contact with his
bicycle, this being due to the slippery
condition of the street and not the
almond-shaped eyes of the Japanese,
Pat bowed politely after being knocked
of, and then rode away amidst the
pIaudits of the assembled multitude for
his admirable self-controI.

sugar imports cost us nearly $123, OVU,-
O0O We consume two and three times
as much sugar per capita (65 pounds
as Europe The total quantity used Is,
therefore, certain to enormously in
crease from year to year. The world s
supply of sugar now comes more large
Iy from beets than from cane. The
United States produces about 300, 900
tons of sugar in a favorable season
now, one-half more than a decade
ago. but our annual imports are ap-
preaching the 1000 000tOn mark.
Beets are a comparatively sure crop
and yield more sugar per acre than
does cane in Louisiana. The books of
one of the best equipped Louisiana
plantations and sugar factories, COM
pared with the records of the Chino
beet sugar enterprise for five years
past. prove the latter to be the better
DroDosition. But there is plenty of
room for both sugar cane within its
limited environment) and the sugar
beet Con it's broader field until the
United States produces all the sugar it
consumes. To do this will require at
least $50 more factories, several mill
lion acres of land (crop rotation is
necessary, a vast amount of labor and
an immense investment of capital. 1t
will mean large business for our ma
chine shops, enormous annual tonnage
for railroads, wealth and prosperity for
farmers, putting into the pockets of
American farmers, laborers and CAPT.
talists the S100.000,000 now paid out
each year for imported sugar.
In view of the probability that q
number of beet sugar enterprises will
be offered to investors, certain points
are important:
First. The factory must be assured
of a certain supply of beets of good
quality. Even if pledges of an album
dance of beets are forthcoming, they
are of little value unless it has been
determined by actual experiment upon
the lands in question that they will
produce beets of proper quality as
well as quantity. At least two or three
years tests are usually necessary to
determine this beyond doubt. Fort
unately, such tests have been made al
ready in a large number of places. Too
much stress cannot be laid on getting
plenty of rich beets.
Second. The beets should be grown
as near the factory as possible; haul
of so to 100 miles absorbs much of the
profit on the crop. There should be
sufficient beet land available within a
sired quantity of beets when only one
third of such land is sown to beets,
thus permitting a wise rotation of
crops. Beets can be grown year after
year on the same land, but it is not
good agricultural practice.
Third. A successful factory requires
an almost unlimited supply of pure
water, good and cheap lime, also fuel,
while facilities for getting the sugar to
market are important.
Fourth. The best talent and the best
are the cheapest in starting
or operating a sugar factory.
These and other points properly |
looked after by experts, and over-capi- !
avoided, beet sugar factory
with good business management, under
national and State encour-
agement during the first few years, will |
prove q safe and profitable investment. |

THOSE HACKS AGAIN.l
Visitor Thinks Macy is All Right
But His System is Bad.

But His system IS Bad.
gentleman visiting Honolulu, after
reading Hack Inspector Macy's plant
in an evening paper, remarked that
''the gentleman evidently doesn't know
his business, or he would not say that
the only way trouble can be averted is
by letting the hacks have permanent
stand, and have the theater patrons
walk to them. Mr. Macy should see
how two or three hundred hacks are
handled by couple of men at single
theater in the States. The trouble
here is not in getting the hack at the
close of the perfOrmanc =. as a rule. the
system adopted works excellent, but it
is in letting the passengers out at
the theater and taking them up be-
tween the acts when the gentle
men have to go out AMI see q man.
Some system should be adopted, neces-
sarily, and the best is the one which
gives the most satisfaction. As one
or two of the papers have suggested,
have the passengers get oct of the
carriages facing Waikiki is better than
is more room to turn. Mr.. Macy is evil
IDENTIFY set in his ways and would rather
submit the patrons of the theater to
annoyance or inconvenience than ad-
nit that there is any other way than
the one he has adopted
