WEDNESDAY, MARCH 3, 1897,
COFFEE INSPECTION.

Good support is given the pro-
position for establishing an off.
cial brand of Hawaiian coffee by
the Hawaii Herald of Hilo. 1t
commends the matter for action to
the meeting of the Coffee Planters
Association soon to be held in
Hilo. The Herald says aptly:
The Characterization of coffee
by the name of the district it
comes from means very little, and
is detrimental to all concerned.
When one buyer may be preju-
diced in favor of one district and
another buyer of another through
having at sometime bought good
coffee from the one and poor
coffee from the other, he may as a
matter of fact have no good basis
for his prejudice, and the best
grades of coffee from both districts
may be of equal value.
Another good point is made by
the Herald when it argues that the
inferior brands produced by slip
shod and unscientific methods OF
culture and curing should not be
allowed to prejudice buyers and
iniure the market for the superior
brands. 1t also repeats effectively
the argument that official grad
ing is necessary to prevent the
possibility of having good Hawai-
ian coffee adulterated before it
reaches the consumer.

Are there no public spirited
citizens to act, before the depar-
ture of next weeks mail, on the
proposition of Mr.. Porter, the
scenic artist, for an outdoor cy-
clorama of the Hawaiian tourist
route at the Nashville exhibition?
1t seems to the BULLETIN to be
a splendid scheme, and a cheap
enough one too, for attracting
tourists. The idea is in no way
to supplant literary bureau work,
but to supplement. such in most
striking manner. Mr.. Porter
suggested that an amateur per-
Torrance might be given here in
aid of the project. This can be
done rs easy as rolling off log,
if only a leader volunteer his or
her services.

An exchange announces that
"Prof. Silvanus p. Thompson of
the Royal Society of England has
invented system of cable con-
struction by which he expects not
only to increase the capacity of
the present lines, but to make
practicable the covering of the
thirty.six hundred miles which
separate Hawaii from New
Zealand" Bring on your cable
and try the new invention.

CENTRAL RIRE STATION.

EDIToR EVENING BULLETIE:-
1t is surprising to me that there
has been practically no editorial
comment in any of the local news.
papers on the letting of the con.
tract for the new Central Fire Sta
ton, the circumstances connected
with it, and the ultimate conse.
quences, if the Government follow
up the precedent they have thus
established. The following is a
summary of facts connected with
the affair:
On Dec. 10, call for tenders,
which was dated Dec. Z, for erect.
ing a new Central Fire Station
appeared in the newspapers over
the signature of the Minister of
the Interior. The tenders we're to
be in by IL noon of Dec. rs and the
plans and specifications were to be
seen at the Office of the Superin-
tendent of Public Works. In the
notice was the usual clause, "The
Minister does not bind himself to
accept the lowest or any bid" La
the specifications appeared the
following clause relative to the
stone to be employed in erecting
the building: "All rock used in
this building to be fine grained,
uniform color, lava rock, free from
blow holes, discolorations, and
all bidders on the mason work
must present sample of
the rock they propose to use if
the contract be awarded to them,
and then all rock used on the
building must be like the sample
on deposit" y "the rock
to be the same as the sample sub
mitted to the Superintendent of
Public Works"
Eight bids in all were sent in,
and when the bids were opened
the following was the result as
given in the p. G. A. of Dec. 30:

An old bridge was removed and
a new one placed in position in

Eastern Railway line over the
River Lea, England. 1t took
nearly three weeks to put in new

and passengers had to change cars
in mud and rain for about three
days at the spot. English methods
would be too swift for the tropics

No award was made at the time
and bidders were informed that
none would be made till the re.
turn of the Minister of the In
terror and the Superintendent of
Public Works from the other
islands where they had urgent
business to attend to. Before
the middle of January it
was reported that first one and thon
another of the bidders-not being
anywhere near the lowest bidders
had deposited samples of stone
at the office of the Superintendent
of Public Works. Mr.. Fred Har.
rison was urged by friends to do
the same but declined, as he
thought the lowest bidder should
have the first chance of having his
sample accepted, or rejected for
cause. When the Minister return
ed, however, Mr.. Harrison wrote
the Superintendent. of Public
Works a letter of which the fol-
lowing is a copy;
January II, 1897.
W. Il. ROwELL,
Supt. Public Works.
DEAR SIR: According to the
following clause in the specifica.
tons furnished by you for estim
ates for the erection Of the Gen.
trail Fire Station House as follows:
sand all bidders Oh the mason
work must present sample of
the rock they propose to use, if
the contract be awarded to them,
and all rocks must be the same as
sample, used in building,"-I take
the liberty of expressing to you
that according to business rules,
by placing sample of rock in
tended to be used before my being
requested to do 30 by you, would
be acting in an unfair way to 9th
er~bidders after figures had been
disclosed, and probably would
not meet with your approval. /
am prepared to submit to you
sample if SO requested.
Respectfully yours,
FRED. HARRISON.
Contractor.
No answer was returned to this
manly letter, but he was verbally
notified by Mr.. Rowell to send in
a sample, and the various news
papers had locals to the effect that
all bidders had been requested to
do so. 1t may be said that state
ments were being made round the
town that the first bidder to send
in sample had stated that the
contract would be awarded to him
and as it turned out it was.
Mr.. Fred. Harrison took in his
sample personally and accom-.
panied it by the following letter:
IL submit to you sample of stone
l propose to use in the erection
of Central Fire Station. Any
work that may be required by the
specifications will be done
accordingly. | wish to state 1
