COFFEE and FRUIT EXCHANGE

With view to securing the opinions
of men engaged in growing coffee in
the Hawaiian Islands ii is proposed to
devote column or more each week TO
publishing letters in answer to ques-
lions which may be furnished by those
anxious to profit by the experience of
others in the industry. From time TO
time there will also be published quer-
les and answers from persons who for
pleasure or profit grow fruits.
Commissioner Marsden suggests the
following questions to the coffee grow
ers all over the islands.
% AT what height should coffee
trees be topped in Hawaii. Give rea-
sons on which you base your opinion.
(2) Which is the best method OF
planting and name the best plant. Do
you prefer nursery plants, nursery
stumps, young wild plants or wild
stumps. State merits and dement's OF
each.
AS some difficulty has been met with
in cultivating the naval orange in the
Hawaiian Islands, H. j. Rhodes, the
nurseyman, gives it as his opinion that
the fault lies wholly in the cultivation
of the soil. He has had years of ex-
perience in growing oranges in Califor-
mia and thinks the same attention to
the ground is needed here. The soil
should be ploughed deep and cultivated
as one would for potatoes. To dig
through the sod and plant the tree is
not enough because when the laterals
reach the hard earth they viii stop
growing. They require free soft soil
Irrigation should take place about once
a month, or whenever the soil appears
dry an inch or two below the surface
and the water should be spread over
the earth as far out as the branches
on the tree extend or farther. The
laterals on the orange are like those on
the coffee trees, they grow with the
branches. The soil should not be made
too wet for then it becomes sour.

wall on the Kilauea Hou yesterday

ing into the wants of the residents of
Kohala on the land question.
AT Puanohulu there are from thou
sand to fifteen hundred acres admirably
suited for pasturage OF the raising or
field crops. This land will be a splendid
opening for the small cattle growers
and others who wish to raise crops TO
limited amount. 1t is not suited
TO raising coffee. owing to the fact that
there is not enough rain.
Another place visited by the Presi-
dent was at Awini, on the east end OF
Kohala and about ten miles from Ko-
hala center
The President was attended on his
visit to this place by about forty Ha-
waiian and white residents. The land
here is located in the forest and is
good for coffee growing. Quite a num-

Must Serve Sentence.

Must Serve Sentence.
Associate Justice Whiting handed
down an opinion which was .concurred
in by the other judges of the Court
relative to the case of riot against six
Portuguese, taken from the Circuit
Court on a bill of exceptions. The
opinion is as follows:
"An affidavit setting forth that af-
faint was counsel for defendants, and
used all his endeavors and means in
his power to obtain and gather all the
evidence possible; that he knew of the
evidence of A. P. only after the jury
had rendered their verdict does not
show due diligence in the preparation
of the case and in the proper search
and inquiries for testimony at the
place where the offense was committed
and is insufficient to base a motion for
a new trial on on the ground OF newly
discovered evidence"
The case of Hoshino, a former Gus
tom house employee, convicted in the
District Court of smuggling and deal
ing in opium, and sentenced to term
of two years at hard labor and to pay
a fine CT five hundred dollars has been
decided. The case was taken to the
Supreme Court on the ground that the
presiding judge had erred in his charge
TO the jury regarding an alibi which
defendant ATTEMPTED to prove. Fol-
lowing is the decision of the Supreme
Court in overruling the motion Tor a
new trial:
There being evidence produced by
defendant tending TO prove that de-
PENDANT was elsewhere than at the
place where the offense is alleged to
have been committed at the time al
legged, the Court was justified of its
own motion in charging the jury as to
the law of alibi''

Russia, England and France May Set
tie the Turkish Question.
LONDON, Oct. 3.-American ridicule
having killed the chimerical triple al
lance of the United States, Great Brit
ain and Italy in joint action against
Turkey, the alliance mongers have de-
vised a new combination-Russ Eng
land and France. The report goes that
Lord Salisbury has offered to hand
over Constantinople to Russia on con-
dition that England's occupation of
Egypt is regular
This arrangement" has aroused the
sarcasm Of the Vienna press, which
asks England how she would like it
if any foreign power offered to hand
over" any British possession without
consulting her. This, the Austrian pa
pers say, would be no more insolent a
proposal than for outsiders to distrib-
ute the Turkish dominions among one
another while they ignored the exist
ence of the Porte.
Some comment has been caused by
the long silence of Sir William YER
non Harcourt, the leader of the oppo-
sition in the House of Commons, on
the Turkish question. The Liverpool
Courier now announces that he is en-
gagged in most carefully preparing a
speech which he will deliver in Mon
mouth next week. Sir William repre-
sents West Monmouthshire in the Com
mons. The Courier says that he in
tends to declare a new and effective
policy regarding Turkey which France
is likely to follow.

MR.. EDITOR: -There must surely
be some mistake in the report given TO
you concerning needed repairs on the
direlict iron bark Gainsborough, now
upon the marine railway, when you
state that the class OF labor is not
here to complete repairs on such a
small vessel.
1t is certainly very bad advertise
ment to go abroad, in view of the fact
that more than two-thirds of the
worlds carrying capacity is in iron
bottoms, and the wooden ship of for
mer times now comparatively obsolete.
There is no new mechanical idea nor
high class mechanical skill required
to replace few sheets of iron on the
most accessible part of ship, viz, her
bottom or frame

Groceries when properly bought may
lie sold cheap and yet be source of profit
to the dealer. If you can get fresh goods
for the same, or less money than you pay
for inferior goods, the profit to you is in
buying from the men who sells the fresh
goods. Our methods of buying are such
that the consumer gets every advantage
in price and quality, We buy from the
manufacturer, thus saving the profit of
middle man.
Our agent in San Francisco watches the
market and takes advantage of every
move favcring US; the advantage is to you
as well. What we save in the cost is
deducted from the selling price. You, as
the buyer save the difference.
An impression exists in the minds of
people who are not our customers, that
beca Sc our store is up-to-date and our
goods the newest and freshest. our prices
must be higher than in others. They are
lower, and an order, just a single order,
placed in our hands will convince you of
the correctness of this statement. We
have fancy groceries but no fancy prices;
the condition of trade in Honolulu will not
permit it.
No one here equals US in the stock we
keep.
