Tue people can now be positive
that this is an honest experiment

ton made with honest intention
and positive hopes and determin-
alton for success if success can be
had.
Manager Lowrie will also be in
way to prove the truth or falsi'y
of contentious made by the Portu.
guese. 1t has often been stated
that the Portuguese ask too much
and are not satisfied with fair
division. This has been denied
as often, but now the situation
is down to a bedrock
condition. Picked American fami
lies fresh from the land of the
free are to take up the work Of
labor 10 the sugar fields. The re
suits they turn out and the mental
and financial condition of the col
ony after years work will prove
the white labor classes now here
either false prophets or capable
judges of the situation.
There is no question of the
white plantation family scheme
being received favorably by the
men since it means
widening of the market for Amer
lean goods. There is everything
to win, since success means a god
send to the now American citi
lens, and il The plrn is failur,
The territory will not suffer any
oticeable losses.

The following from the Tacoma
Ledger gives some inkling of how
the memorials touching on ship
ping and tariff will be received il
the States:
The sailing of a steamship from
Tncoms for Hawaii, loaded witt
Wa bington products, will II
!oubt be followed by many others
from the same port. While our
merchants and manufacturers ar,
uokiug efforts to develop trade
with the islands others are doing
The same thing, aud European and
Japanese merchants are getting in
large stocks of goods from their
own countries, IN anticipation Of
the going into effect of the Amer
lean tariff. This Is ample reason
Why the tariff laws should be ex
tended to Hawaii without delay
aud also our navigation laws, so
that American products will have
to be carried to the islands in
American bottoms. Much of the
trade now goes by the British line
from Vancouver, which ought to
go from Tacoma in the Columbia
or other American ships.
One thing is noticeable, how
ever. The grudge Tacoma is sup
posed to bear the British line is
more newspaper talk than actual
business fear, since both lines EN-
ploy the same local agents and
both receive fair business deal.

what the growth of trade may
likely reach, and all other facts
that may guide our manufacturers
and merchants in the future.
Several thousand copies of The
