OLAA CANE PLANTING.
Progress of Surveys for the New Hilo
Railway.

Contracts have been let for the clear
ing of several of the Olaa coffee plant
atoms and seed cane is being planted
as rapidly as it can be placed in the
ground. The sugar company is showing
great activity, as it is their intention 20
waste no time in clearing and planting
the land.
Through the estate, from eight miles
to fifteen, flags have been set showing
the proposed line of the railway, but
this line is subject to change. Nothing
has been definitely settled regarding
the plantation railway. Preliminary
surveys have so far only been made on
the lands of the Puma plantation rOr
the plantation railway there. AS the
Hilo railway is to be standard guage,
some changes will necessarily have 10
be made in the original plans. Probably
nothing definite will be decided upon
until Mr.. Carter arrives next week. -

REGISTERING VOTERS.

MAUI, May 13.-The Board OF Regis
tration is at present on Molokai, going
over yesterday on the Mokolii. The
board will hold a meeting al the Leper
Settlement while there. Registration
so far has been very light, and the cleo
lions will cause but little excitement.
Some speculation is INDUCED in, as to
who will run for Representatives, and
i'm case there are more than the requr-
ed number, a little interest may be
awakened. Attorney George Hons of
Waikiki, will be a candidate, and it is
surmised that d. II. Kahaulelio and
Simon Kaai win seek the Office again.

THE TRUSTS
ARE INJURING THE HOTEL BUSI.
NESS
BY Taking Drummers on the Road

A Pittsburg hotel man claims
that the combinations and trusts
now forming all over the country
are doing immense injury to that
class of hostelrIes which chiefly de-
pend upon travelling salesman for
their business. "Why," he said.
81 know of two concern that have
taken, respectively 1000 and 500
statesmen of the road. There are
many others that have discharged
all their statesmen for the simple
reason that they no longer need
anybody to drum up trade. When
a trust has absorbed all the leading
firms ia a certain branch Of trade,
competition is dead-the little fell
lows, YOU know, don't count-and
It would be ridiculous to offer
goods through expensive statesmen
which the public must buy any
how. 1t has been said that trusts
are really benefcent Institutions.
since they cheaper production.
That kind Of talk can't fool u man
who exercises his thinking machine
on the subject.
Anyway, the trusts are knock
ing The spots of the hotel business.
Pittsburg is a good example.
Cleveland has suffered greatly.
A friend Of mine who has a big
hotel in that place mostly
p"tronized by travelling men, was
here on a VISIT she other day. lie
told me that on the day before only
two trunks hid arrived At biz hotel.
whereas formerly The daily average
had been two big express wagon
loads. Hundreds Of hotels are
being driven out Of the business.
That is e fact which, I believe. bias
never before been stated in con

PATERSON ARRAIGNS
OPPOSING COUNSEL
BIGELoW AND TITUS COME IN
FOR A ROAST.
Accused of Selfish Conduct in a Case
Which Involved Large Interests
of Napa County People.

Ex-Supreme Justice Van R. Paterson
took occasion yesterday before Judge
Beicher to denounce certain actions of the
firm of Bigelow & Titus in no measured
terms Yesterday Judge Paterson came
into court in answer to a summons to tax
the costs of action in the case of Dow
dell vs.. Carpy ct al, a suit involving re-
ceipts Of large quantities of Napa County
wine. three appeals to the Supreme Court
already having been taken in the case.
When Judge Paterson entered the court
he said that during his connection with
the case as the representative OF the
plaintiff he had become aware of certain
modes of practice adhered to by the coun-
sci for the defendants which in his opin-
ion the public and the bar should KNOW
During all the years of this Nugauon,
he said we have been in the hablt OF
entering into supula tivns granting each
other all the time necessary for the proper
presentation of our cases. The last Judg-
ment in the case was in our favor, and
as an appeal was to be taken TO the SUI
preme Court il was necessary that proper
briefs be prepared. l understood that
was to have proper time, but on the very
last day / was informed that opposing
counsel would not grant me a. further Gay
although my son was in the very shadow
of death and / had been up with him for
five nights, having no time in whlch 10
prepare the briefs. l rang up the hrm
and was refused further time. In despair
l hurried to the Supreme Court, fortu-
nately found four Justices and secured
the necessary stay. ! deem it my duty
TO make public the facts as given that all
may take warning and prepare for similar
treatment.
Mr. Titus was in court, but he did not
answer, and Judge Paterson, bowling TO
the court. left the room.
