EXPERT SOUZA' 5 OPINION
IMPRESSED WITH THE BRIGHT
OUTLOOK FOR COFFEE.
Was Engaged i'm Coffee Cultivation In
Guatemala for Fifteen Years VIII
Visit Hawaii shortly.

For some little time past the coffee
fields on Oahu have been subject to
the close examination of +. Souza, an
expert coffee planter of fifteen years
experience in Guatemala.
II is Mr.. Souza's intention to look
into the coffee industry of the group
and he will leave shortly for Maui and
Hawaii. While in the Olaa district on
Olaa he will be the guest of Thomas
Higgins, the big Olaa planter.
Mr. Souza believes that the general
conditions of the climate and soil are
favorable to the industry, and that
II will prove a success.
Mr. Souza says that coffee cultiva-
ton in Guatemala has ultimately pro-
ven a comparative failure in the low
er attitudes, and that the best results
are obtained at elevations of 1000 feet
or over.
As the climate of Guatemala is move
nearly to be compared to that of this
region than that of most other coffee
growing countries, this statement
may furnish valuable commentary
on coffee growing here.

Hawaiian
Electric
Company.

In the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the incan
descent electric light. Safe nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman Of Honolulu came rushing down to
the Office Of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once no more lamps for me-
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number In
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you wall.
We have complete stock Of every thing in
this line and have just received a lot Of the
very latest designs in chandeliers.

American and Canadian Cyclers
May Declare War.
Canadians Think Chairman
Mott Is DiscOurteOus.
BOARD SCORED
Believed to Have Exceeded It's
Authority Some.
Refuses to Permit Americans
in Jubilee Races.

New York, June 19.-The trouble be-
tween the League of American Wheelmen
and the Canadian Wheelmen's associa-
ton bids fair to end the friendly alliance
now existing between the two organiza-
tions
Dispatches from Toronto yesterday
stated that the Canadians threaten
open rupture unless Chairman Albert
Motifs sanction permitting Americans to
race for the $1,000 purse at the Chatham
meet on July is granted.
The Canadians are anxious to secure
entries of such celebrated American fly
ers as Bald, Cooper and Kiser. But
Chairman Mott refuses to allow them
to ride in Chatham on July I. on the
ground that the meet conflicts with
League of American Wheelman's meets
in the western states, and also that the
prize of 81, 600 is above the limit placed
by the league.
The stand that Mr.. Mott has taken has
caused a warm discussion among those
interested in cycle racing President
Isaac B. Potter and many others strongly
approve Mr.. Motifs decision. They say he
is right in protecting the circuit meets al
Racine, Wis, July 1, and 3. at which
the purses for professionals are of the
ordinary L. A. W. limit. That if Ameri-
cans are allowed to ride in Canada for
81 900 purse July 1, the best professionals
will go there, and the Racine meets will
be a failure.
Other disinterested league members say
that Chairman Mott is narrow; that if
the Canadians put up purse of ST. 900
they see no reason why an American
should not have the privilege of racing
for the money. and as far as exceeding
the prize limit is concerned, he has grant
ed a sanction for a $500 purse at the ma
tional meet Willow Grove park. Phila-
delphia, August Z.

He Will Offer an Aeti- Trust Amend
ment to the Tariff Bill.

Washington, June Ex-senator Mel
son of Minnesota has prepared an anti
trust amendment which he will offer
to the tariff bill and which he thinks
Will meet the objections that have been
made to other amendments OF similar
character 1t is as follows:
Every person, firm or corporation,
who shall mCnOpOliZe or engrOSS, or at
tempt to mOnopOliZe or engrOSs, or who
shall combine or conspire with any other
person, firm or corporation to monOpO-
lize or engross the trade or commerce
in raw or refined sugar of any kind
among the several states or with for
eign nations, for the purpose of unduly
enhancing the price of such sugar,
shall be deemed guilty of a misde
meanor, and on conviction thereof shall
be punished by a fine of not less than
$500 nor more than 10000. or by impris-
Onment at hard labor not less than six
months nor more than two years, or
by both said punishments in the dis
cretiOn of the court. And in case of
a corporation found guilty of said Of
fense, the jury shall also ascertain and
find what officers of the corporation
caused or directed the corporation to
commit such offenSe, and such officers,
on being found guilty of causing or
directing the corporation to commit the
offense of which it is found guilty,
shall be liable to the punishment afore-
said.
1t shall be sufficient pleading in the
indictment to describe the Offense in
that a manufacturer or refiner of sugar
refuses to sell his sugar to the public
otherwise than through special agents
shall be deemed fair evidence of mon
Opolizing or attempting to monopoIize
the trade.
The several circuit courts of the
United States are hereby invested
with Jurisdiction to prevent and re-
strain violations of this law and it
shall be the duty of the several district
attorneys of the United States, in their
respective districts, under the direction
of the attorney general. to institute
proceedings in equity to prevent and
restrain such violations. Such pro-
ceedings may be by way of petition
setting forth the case and praying that
such violation shall be enjoined or
otherwise prohibited.
When the parties complained of shall
have been duly notified of such petit
ton the court shall proceed, as soon
as may be, to the hearing and deter
mination of the case; and pending such
petition and before a final decree, the
court may at any time make such tenn
porary restraining order or prohibition
as shall be deemed just in the prem
ises.

In the past the board has taken no

like fate. Kirk was formerly MEMBER
of the state home in Quincy, III.
The board declined to readmit any OF
the applicants who had once been dis
honorabIy discharged. There were 80
such applica tions. The board directed
the rebuilding of the home of the gov

Cooke but their testimony was of such
a conflicting character that it is likely
