In. this regard we may express our
surprise that no investigation was
made by the authorities in regard to
the sources from which the Storage
passengers derived their $50. Not
very long ago, Minister Cooper and
other officials refused landing per-
mits to large number of Japanese,
because they held, that the de faoto
possession OF $50 was not a sufficient
reason to issue a landing permit
under our statutes. The opinion of
the wise gentlemen cost the tax
payers $75 900 which were paid with
the rider that, although we paid the
amount as claimed by Japan, we
were yet in the right. No questions
were asked the students" by the
Doric, and for all the authorities
know the $50 produced might not
be the bona fde property of the
travellers.

publish one from a mechanic at
Helena, Montana, and will endeavor
to answer his questions, after several
interviews with the leading en-
ployers OF skilled labor in Honolulu.
The first questions read: What
would be the prospects for good
carpenter in honolulu 2-What
wages do mechanics commando g.
Would one be likely to secure
teady employment Ais there
much building contemplated?
A carpenter, who would be called
first class mechanic-not by him-
self, but by his employer-can at
present secure from three to four
dollars day. There is no special
demand for carpenters or other
mechanics, and several good men
have been out Of employment for
several weeks. Many Hawaiians,
Portuguese and Asiatics are employ
ed at cheap wages on the structures
now being erected under the i'm
mediate supervision of master me-
chanics. There is always much
building contemplated but actual
,perations are few and far between.
There is no show whatever for
mechanic to obtain steady employ
ment except he will go into com.
petition with the Asiatics or take
job on the few plantations which
yet employ white labor and where
skilled carpenter or blacksmith
will receive wages not exceeding $50
month and free lodging.
The next questions are: 5-What
is the cost OF good substantial
boarding per week? els the coun-
try healthy.
A good mechanic from Montana,
who wants board and lodging fit for
an American workingman cannot
get it at less than $25 per month.
This exclusive Of washing which
will amount to So a month and of
other incidentals. We will here add
that cigars and tobacco cost about
the same as in the States, and that
the cheapest liquors are sold at %
cents a drink with the exception of
beer, which is retailed at 12a cents
glass. In regard to the health of
the country it can only be said that
the climate is excellent and prob
ably unequalled in the world. The
sanitary conditions of Honolulu,
owing to the absence of sewerage
system, are very deplorable, and a
great deal OF sickness has prevailed
during the past few years. Appro-
priations have, however, been made
for a proper sewerage, the work on
which it is hoped will begin in the
near future.
Question 2 Would you advice
one to go depending on his muscle
and energy?
Decidedly mol If you want to
prosper in Hawaii don't bother
about muscle and energy but bring
along as much capital as possible
and letters to the parsons OF the
Congregational Church.
AS p. S. our correspondent asks:
"Are there Masonic Lodges in Ho-
nolulu?"
There are about twenty lodges OF
different secret societies here with a
large and influential membership,
but, at least ostensibly, they do not
interfere in the commercial, social
or political business of the islands
We hope our necessarily brief
answers to the Montana mans letter
will reach other correspondents and
satisfy them that for the present at
least, they will be disappointed il
not ruined, il they seek their fortune
