The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1901-07-18

Each returning June and July brings
back to our shores the boys and girls
who have been abroad at the UNIVERSE
ties, the colleges and the seminaries of
the mainland. From Berkeley and
Stanford to Harvard and Yale there is
a string of Hawaiian born youths and
maidens who are studying at the va
rious institutions of learning. The de-
sire for higher education is growing
very much in this community, and for
or dozen years ago there are now a
dozen who aspire to have such an OPP
portunity. 1t speaks well for the rising
generation of the Territory.

ANOTHER INDUSTRY.

Everything that tends To giving us
the Territory Some years ago two
were started IN Waikiki of which one
proved a success and the other a fail
ure. The success was tar0 flour, or
taroena which is now largely sold in the
United states. and is used on the ISL
ands The failure was in dessicated
bananas. 1t was supposed that they
would prove profitable merchandise
but somehow or other they never
Caught on" and the manufacture or
dessication of them has, so The
Star understands, been given up long
ago.
There is however another method of
preparing bananas for market which
might be profitable. This is dried ba-
mana meal. This finds a ready mar
ket on account of it's great nutritive
power. At the present time as far as
the State Department has been able to
find out through it's consular corps,
Jamaica merchants are the only per-
sons engaged in the trade. The consuls
urge the Southern States to go into
the industry. But why should not we
do so. There is any quantity of good
banana land all over the group. Our
market for fresh bananas is limited.
and through lack of proper means of
transport many places which could pro-
duce thousands of punches, produce
none at all. This is especially true of
the Island of Hawaii.
If banana growers could harvest their
fruit and then Immediately turn it into
a product which would keep, it would
revolutionize the banana industry on
the Islands. Banana meal is used for
enriching milk for invalids and also is
in demand for imparting a pleasant
flavor to soups, meat stews, etc.
a large part of the product of Jamai-
ca goes to Europe, but there is no rea-
son why there should not be a demand
for it on the west coast of the main
land and in Canada, while there should
be an outlet in the far East. We are
all the time complaining about our
minor industries, here is one. If fur
Their information is wanted it is easy
to write to the Department of State and
request it, The editor of the daily
consular reports, Frank Emory, will
at once put machinery at work which
would bring complete report from
Jamaica. stating how the banana meal
is made.

MUST WAIT.

Those people who thought that a
vote of the Legislature was sufficient
10 unseat Governor Dole, will now be
satisfied that they had their trouble for
their pains. In certain minds there was
no doubt as to the success of the plan.
In point of fact the Legislature did
nothing, awaiting the return of it's en-
issary, and was much surprised that
it's request received a non-commital
verbal answer.
Delegate Wilcox's interview which
appeared in the San Francisco Choni-
cie of the eleventh. showed very clear
ly that the effort to Gust Governor Dole
was dead failure. The Governor will
finish his term of office, and then, and
not till then will there be an oppor-
tunity to look out for another COVER
nor. This may be unpleasng to the
member from the Fifth with the anar-
chistic proclivities, but he will have to
satisfied with it. Perhaps if he were
to go to the White House himself he
might get matters changed.
The Chief Executive of a great ma
tion is not going to take part in the
petty quarrels of any of the sub-divis-
ions of that nation. The people of the
sections must work out their own saliva
ton. That is what self government
means Our people have so long been
accustomed to look to the govern
ment" for everything, that it was but
should look to the Chief Executive the
moment they cut their fingers as it
were.
The same line of argument may be
used with regard to Judge Humphreys.
There is however a difference. The bar
is distinctly profession, 1t is govern
ed by certain rules. If a man trans
gress those rules he can be clearly
shown to be in the wrong. 1t is not a
case of difference of opinion, it is a
case of fact. If Judge Humphreys has
transgressed the legal rules, he has laid
himself open to the censure of his SUI
perior officers, or even to removal. But
all depends upon the statement of facts.
The affairs of Hawaii look very big
indeed to some of us, but viewed from
the distance of Washington they are
infnitesimally small. Hawaiian affairs
cannot occupy so large a space as the
Philippines, or Cuba and then there are
all the State and Territorial interests.
We have an organic act, and we have
been launched upon our course. If we
do not make good course of it, 1t is
our own fault. Nobody is going to
bother much about us, This is the mes

The Chinese trouble does not seem
to be getting any less. The Boxer
movement is increasing instead of de-
creasing and the Dowager and Prince
Tuan are apparently once more in alli-
ance against the foreign devil" That
the terms of the agreement between
the powers and China will be carried
out, seems very unlikely now. The
Russians have all they want to do in
Manchuria. 1t takes fifty thousand
troops to guard the railway, and the
population is extremely hostile. How
safe the people in the embassies in
Picking may be remains to- be seen.
There may yet be another revolutionary
upheaval in China and this is just the
time of year for such movement.

That Consumptlve Hospital, which
has so long been talked of and which
has never materialized beyond the
present make shift Hospital for Incur
ables, is always showing that it is very
badly needed. The Queens Hospital
will not take in consumptive patients,
and upon medical and hygienic grounds
it is perfectly justified in refusing. The
question is what can be done for such
unfortunates. In course of time, no
doubt, we shall be properly equipped
with all such institutions, the trouble
is we are not so equipped now.
The case of Philip r. Whelan, is
only one in point. He could find no
proper place here to stay in and left
by the Sierra for the mainland. He
will be able to go to some sanitarium
in the mountains where he will get the
care whihc his disease requires. But
the case of Mr.. Whelan is only the
case of many scores of people who are
suffering from the same disease, and
not all of them have the means of de-
parting from these shores. There have
been cases where the unfortunate
sufferer has hardly been able to find
a place to die in. These the Hospital
for Incurables meets now.
Though a frightful scourge of the hui
man race at the present time, consump-
ton or tuberculosis is durable if taken
in the earlier stages. Establishments
i,, in, q
elsewhere have been remarkably sue
cessful in the number of absolute cures.
These are obtained not by medicines
or drugs, but by a hygienic method of
life and a careful consideration of diet.
We have here to consider two classes
of institution. One, such as the Hos
pital for Incurables, which we already
have in embryo, and which should bear
out it's name, only admitting those
who come within its walls practically
to die. The other should be an insti-
tuition where tuberculOus patients
might go to be cured. The latter need
not be supported at public expense,
but should be, as such institutions are
in various parts of the world, a priv
ate venture For the latter a site
should certainly be found in the dis
tricts of either North or South Kona
whose climate is peculiarly adapted to
give relief to sufferers suffering from
tubercuous disease, and under proper
conditions to cure them.
We are a young country and our
period of reorganization which is now
on. will probably preclude any great
advance upon lines such as these. But
the time will come when we shall fully
realize the necessity of meeting hY-
gienic conditions in the same way that
other communities have met them.
Meanwhile it is wise to keep constantly
before our minds the fact that such
cases as that of Mr.. Whelan are con-
stantly before us, and that we shall
have many more in the future.

The following figures, taken from a
German paper, show that Germanys
share in the traffic of the Suez Canal
has increased considerably at the cost
Of England. England's share is still
large, but is growing smaller from year
to year, and during the last ten years
has fallen off Is per cent. Since 1896,
England's trade has dropped off about
227 vessels, of 2S6,359 registered tons,
while Germany's has increased 40 YES
sells, of 926,65O tons. In 1896, England
had 66.9 per cent of the total trade, and
in 1900 only 56,7 per cent. Germany's
share, on the other hand, increased
from 9.S per cent to Is per cent. For
a number of years, the largest ships
using the canal have sailed under the
German flag; further, Germany has, on
the average, larger ships than England,
for while the average size of the Ger
man vessels is 4,431 registered tons, the
average size of British vessels is only
4,O16 tons. Twenty years ago, only Is
German vessels passed the canal, and
now the number has reached 462.

The small farmers at Wahiawa are
doing well. A considerable quantity
of vegetables has found it's way into
our markets, and been much apprecia-
ted by the city house wives. Now it is
stated that the melon crop of the col
ony has been sold on the vines for 500
per acre. If small farming is carried
on within reach of a market, it is I'M
doubtedly profitable. 1t is a pleasure
to see progress in this direction.

The brick mandatory is doing well.
The tests made yesterday seem to have
been thoroughly satisfactory. With
good bricks at SIG per thousand, instead
of $22 per thousand, the price of the
imported article the price of building
ought to be considerably lessened. Va
ried industries are surely coming along.
