MENDACIoUs WRITINGS.

The Republican has on several occa-
unfair and biased correspondence fur
nished the Associated Press the Pacific
coast newspapers from this city. The
Associated Press correspondence from
here. sent out under date of September
IA. was simply mendacious in its unfaI;
ness and evident intention to injure GER
tain people in the eyes of mainland read
ers. To put it plainly, it did not tell the
news but instead purported to tell il
by furnishing what was in plain English
lying statements. This fact has been
known TO The Republican for some time
and this paper has taken means to call
the attention of the proper parties
on the mainland to this abuse of cor
respondence TO the end that it may be
remedied. That it is having bad effect
in many ways is apparent from the fol-
lowing letter written by Edward Pollitz
and just received by a member of the
Honolulu Stock Exchange.
Our market here is not any too
strong. caused by the malicious AMI
false reports about the plantation and
the labor situation. coming from Ho-
nolulu. All reports appearing in the
papers here dated from Honolulu bear
strong tendency TO righteousness and
| iIl-wil. and we do not think il good
taste on the part of a reporter down
there 10 do his level best to injure the
community in which he is living, and
YOU gentlemen who are interested in the
promotion and welfare of the Hawaiian
Islands ought TO look into the matter
and find out why he persistently sends
up reports which are substantially in
correct.
This is quite serious matter, and il
not stopped now. will certainly drive
people away from your investments, in
stead of coming to your assistance with
money.
The reports which were sent up ABOUT
the Paauhau FIRE are a tissue of false
hoods and the origin ought to be looked
into.
Another report appeared in the pa
pers about the serious disturbance on
plantations caused by labor troubles
You and others down there know that
the labor troubles will be bridged over IN
time and disappear: unfortunately. the
parties who are maliciously sending up
these reports cannot he bridged over. nor
will they disappear.
While we address this letter to you
personally. we would ask you TO give it
As wide circulation as possible, so that
the guilty parties may be properly
called down..

State to Raise Sugar.
LFrom the New York Post. ]


Sugar raising is reviYing as an in
dusry of Texas. Before the war much
cane was raised in the state. but the pow
erty resulting from the war and the loss
of the slaves caused the planters to turn
their attention 10 cotton, as q crop easier
cultivated and marketed. The old mills
fell into disuse and decay: sugar planta-
tions became cotton plantations. and the
care and growth of sugar cane became
numbered among the temporarily LOST

the recovery in some part of the former
prosperity. sugar making. however, again
came to the front. Cane planting on a
large scale Was resumed in Fort
Bend county. Others. seeing the success
of that. also began the work again. and
now there are several large plantations
growing nothing. practically. except cane
for sugar making. Further impetus is

From the hour of its birth the repub-

dom. and IL is because of that fact that
ilawaiians enjoy the franchise today
without any restrictions excepting those
Of ability TO read and write in either the
Hawaiian or English language. Ii was
the republican party at Washington that
placed this franchise provision in the
Organic Act despite the efforts of resi-

Among the applicants, he said, were a

ST. PAUL, Jan. 5.-Railroads operating
from st. Paul have been figuring UP thu
general results of the past years business.

ness.
The Northern transcontinental lines
have enjoyed year of prosperity far De-
when viewing the situation a year ago.
At the beginning of 1893 many OF the call
culations for business during the year
were based upon the traffic to accrue from
the great grain crops Of the Northwest
ern states, as had been done for years No
one could have believed year ago that the
portion Of the enormous business that fol-
lowed for twelve months. Instead of form

service, and railroad men say p they could i

Passenger traHic during the past twelve
months has exceeded any previous year in
the history of the roads. Western travel
has been enormous. Thousands of settlers
have gone West along the great roads and
have located homes all the way from Wis
consin TO the Pacific coast.
Tourists to the Yellowstone National
park and other Western resorts were more
numerous than ever before. Popular ex-
cursions were also in great demand
throughout the summer and fall. and the
general travel is shown to have materially
Increased. with the prospect that the year
1900 will still further encroach upon the
capacity of the roads and make 1t neces-
sary to provide additional trains and ac-
commodations.
