nearly $4,000 yearly. a pancake con-
cern could not develop a business OF
over s., 600 or $4,000 a year. 1t is these
who will lose. We would
gladly welcome them to our city, if
they choose to come in spite of such
conditions"
j. j. Egan fears that il would be a
mistake for the Exposition to be held
during the coming spring, because
there are no hotel accommodations for
the people. It would give the visitors
bad impression of the city. Mr.. Egan
favors postponement until fall when
Honolulu will be in better position to-
take care of her guests
Manager Girdler, of n. S. Sachs &
Company, stated that he had been in
the dry goods business for twenty-five
years. He iS learning new things every
little while and is confident that an Ex-
position such as is planned could only
result in a mutual benefit for the man
ufacturer and merchant. The consum-
er would also be the direct recipient OF
such a benefit.
The Manufacturers Shoe Company
has faith in the Exposition w. III.
Smith said that the visit of shoe
manufacturer to the Islands with the
latest line of shoes would enable them
have a display of white canvas shoes
in our windows now which are new
and specially adapted to this country.
This is the result, you see, of recent
interview with the manufactures"
T. w. Hebron believes that the Ex-
position would be a good thing for the
merchant. The results obtained might
mot be satisfactory to the manufacturer.
Hyman Brothers did not care much
whether the manufacturers came or
not.
Capt J. NJ. Camara, the wine mer-
chant said he would work for the Ex-
position.
E. c. Macfarlane is confident that
sufficient additional hotel accommoda-
tions will have been erected by May to
shelter all who come to the Exposition
from the coast
b. F. Dillingham; would like to see a
closer alliance between the manufac-
turer and merchant
Fully dozen other merchants spoke
in similar tone. They felt that as
long as the manufacturer wanted to
show his goods at his own expense,
that they were entitled to the patron
age and cooperation of the Honolulu
merchants. Only good could come OF
| the thing.
