PRICE OF WHEAT.

The rise here in 1918 of the price of
3wheat had very obvious causes, as it
3seemed to us. and we stated them,
sfairly and fully. But 1t was to the in
Jterest of special-pleaders to ignore
these causes and to explain the rise of
wheat upon other grounds, and this
5they did with diligence and scant re-.
sgard for the facts.-treating our plain.
isimple and manifest explanation as
] far-fetched and falaclous.
But we are now vindlcated by "the
jllome Study Circle" whose impartiali-
/ ty and reliability cannot be questioned;

] The manufacturing countries of west
germ Europe. especially Great Britain
sGermany, France and Belgium, are the
sgrcat purchasers of wheat from other
Scountries. When. therefore, there Is al
2shortaSe in the production of wheat in
Sthese countries there is an increased
sdemand for wheat from abroad. which
iunesS there is corresponding In
creased production abroad, must in
screase the price of wheat bread The
ielfect of shortage in European coun-
tries such as that of 1897 upon the
wheat price in this country is very i'm ]
sportant. The average price obtained
sDy united States farmers for the wheat
1 in 1897 was so cents mills. The aver-
sage price obtained by our farmers inl
/ lS9l, when there was an unusually largc|
jcrop in Europe, was 40 cents 1 mill
3The difference in favor of 1897 was
therefore. 81 cents mills. The total
United States crop OF 1894 was AGO 267. i
1000 bushels. This at 49.1 cents amount
5to S225,9ol,0 The total crop for 1881
Twas $50. 1880 bushels. This at so 81
5cents amounts TO s42S, 36f,432 Thus thcI
aEuropean shortage, together with al
soetter and larger crop here than ordi-
Ahary, amounted to over 5000 900. 600 OIL
advantage to our wheat growers. Orl
3takinS the increase alone and not the
sincrease In production, the ADVANTAGES
amounted to over Sl6S. 057,23 The to-
Hal wheat acreage of the United States
Stor 1897 was 39465,066 acres. The total
dvaluc of this enhanced price of our
fwheat in 1897. due to the Europea nj

dacre for every acre sown to wheat in
the whole country.

BOARD OF EiEALT ORDER.

The advertisement published by the
Board of Health of this city, to the eff
feet that mo person shall be allowed
to pass to or from Norfolk to Hamp-
ton. Newport News or Suffolk unless
such person furnish satisfactory evi-
dence of successful vaccination or be
vacclnated," is. in the opinion of many
of our business men, unwise and very
damaging to our city.

position taken will. for obvious reasons.

interests OF our city, and the trans

cessty for the issuance of this order.

listed for some time, and the Board OF

by our morning contemporary of yes

plication. The order says NO person

folk to Hampton, Newport News OF
Suffolk, on penalty of exhibiting proof
of vaccination or being vacclnnted, and

which demand their presence here, I'M
less they will submit to vaccination, and
travellers and visitors generally viii
not come to our city or enter it for fear
that they can not get out unless they
can show satisfactory evidence of sue
cessful vaccination or be vaccinated."
The effect of this order will be to
keep large number of people away
from our city. The board has practi-
cally erected Chinese wall around

flags. and its recent order is equivalent

ILLS life was that of worker, so that

Opportunity Made kihei.

To obtain wealth needs, simply, the a.
bility to recognize opportunities and take
advantage Of them. Opportunities exist
everywhere, but the number of really great
opportunities is always proportionately
small and these are always taken up by
the men who have not only brains but
who act quickly and have courage. Pretty
much all of the wealthy people Of this
country were once poor and they have
prospered by taking advantage of opportu-
mites. In Honolulu today, are all the evil
dences of advanced American rustling and
energy. To be much account in the po-
,ession a man has to keep pretty close to

QUERIES.

Query--Why should the Septem-
Der elections in Hawaii be allowed
to take place
Query - viii the Hawaiian
Government give any good rea-
son why, in view Of the pro-
bable enactment in December
Of a territorial law demanding a
new Legislature, the people OF Ha-
wai should be called upon to elect
a Legislature in September which
will never be called in session
Query-Has the government of
Hawaii sought any opinion from
Washington on this point, and if so
what was the reply'
Query--If the Hawaiian Govern
ment has not sought this informal
ton, what reason has il to give for
failure to do 50 ?
These are questions Tor winch
the people of Hawaii have a right
to demand an answer. The tax
payers have a right to demand that
their money shall not be spent for
an election that amounts to nothing.
They have a right to know whether
the Hawaiian government has made

cation with authorities in Washing
