Another illustration of the in
creased demands on the harbor
space of Honolulu and the neces

future trade is shown in the state
ment that the Atlantic and Pacific
Company, which operates the Ar
gonaut line of clipper ships be-
tween Philadelphia and the PAci-
fic Coast, proposes to establish a
clipper ship line from Baltimore
and New York to the Pacific
Coast and Honolulu in the near

Improved Material.
David A. Campbell has his men
engaged today laying a coat Of
Black Diamond roof paint on the
awning in front of McInerny's
store. This paint is made from
best refined asphalt, prepared aud
t mpered without oil, and gives a
perfect protection to iron, tin,
single and paper roofs. A salts
factory guarantee for three years
is given In all cases
Aside from the roof paint Mr..

About % contracts have already
been satisfactorily fulfilled in this
city. Anothar special device for

United States Must Hold the IsIa nds to
Protect Its Commerce.
The time is coming fast when
the commerce of the Pacific Ocean
will be quite as important to us
rs that of the Atlantic has been
in the past, aud wise foresight de-
mands that we shall take all me-
cessary steps to protect our pres
ent aud future interests in that
direction. The Hawaiian Islands
are the crossroads of the com
merce of the Pacific between the
American Continent, the Orient
and Australia, and in case of pos
sible conflict between some of the
great Powers it would be great
advantage to our peace and safety
to hold undisputed possession of
a strategic point Of such immense
Importance. The annexation of
Hawaii would have been accom-
pIished four years ago but for the
arbitrary and upjustified action of
President Cleveland in withdraw
ing the treaty pending in the
Senate when he began his second
term, but it is pleasing to know
that he only succeeded in delay
ing and not in defeating that wise
power.-Denver Republican.
