WIDENING OF
HOTEL STREET

Anent the widening of Hotel street,
Surveyor Dodge, of the Bishop Estate,
,akes exception to the recent ruling OF
the Governors Council, which agreed to
extend the ntauka line only as far as
the Public Library portico. Mr.. Dodge
says he doesn't like the departure from
the straight line authorized by the Leg
islature. Mr.. Dodge says that putting
the line only as far as the portico has
the effect of robbing the community OF
much of the frontage that the streets
would otherwise have
Mr.. Dodge's contention is based on
the fact, also, that the Rapid Transit
Company's tracks will be nearer the
:liauka line than the makai, and owing
tt. the usual congestion of Hotel street,
would render the street dangerous on
the mauka side if the new street line
is shorn of four feet, the recent action
of the council making the street only
fifty-six feet wide, instead of sixty.

The success of the Wahiawa expert
ment, which is shown in the wagon
loads of fine fruits and vegetables lately
brought to this market, should prompt
other western farmers to apply their in
dustry to Hawaiian soils. There is
plenty of room for the small proprietor;
a good cash market for him; and
chance, while earning competency, to
enjoy the most equable and healthful
climate in the warm ATTITUDES. Sugar
may be king in Hawaii, but the king
subjects have to eat farm produce, and
it would be unnecessary, if the indus
trious white man were to do his part,
to send to other shores for it.

THE TWO CENTURIES.

f1El T1EN the twentieth century
w was ushered in year ago, or
whether today marks its initial date on
the calendar, does not much concern us
the point remains that the twentieth
century is undeniably here, and that the
nineteenth century has joined those past
ages which, viewed from yesterday,
stretch back like the line of kings the
Roman saw in his vision, into the mists
and shadows of antiquity
1t is good to live in these days, for
the past seems strangely lacking in
things which we have come to regard
as the necessaries of life And yet the
people of the latter year of the
eighteenth century thought they were
far advanced About 1895, after the
principle of the cotton gin was discover

of invention proceeds during the next

upon coarse paper of high price, beside

The steel pen and the typewriter were

When the author sent his manuscript to
the PARKWAY publisher he did it UP
without envelope or stamp and put it in
the stage coach post to be paid for on

oTTMANN SENTENCED.
Fine of $500 and Three Months in
Jail for Liquor Selling.

We J. Ottmann, the proprietor CT
the Waikiki resort, who was recently
arrested for selling liquor without Ii
cense, was tried before Judge Wilcox
yesterday and fined $500 He was also
sentenced to three months imprison-
ment at hard labor in Oahu prison. The
size of the fine and sentence surprised
even the court room audience, but IN
asmuch as this was his third ofense,
Judge Wilcox said it was time to adj
minister a lesson which the Offender
would remember.

The domain OF geography vastly ex-

In 1901, two years before Jefferson
bought the empire called Louisiana from
France, the westernmost limit of the
United States touched the ninety fifth
degree of longitude extending from the
British frontier south through Mime
sofa to the sources of the Mississippi,
following the line of the great river to
the Gulf Two-thirds of the mainland
area OF the United States have since
been added; and the Stars and Stripes
have been planted so far westward that
they have saluted the farther East and
mingled their hues with the sunshine of
the Orient. OF Europe, the vast area
called Russia, was half barbarian; Afri-
ca was only known along its coasts, or,
here and there, for a few hundred miles
in the interior; Asia was mostly a
sealed book, save in India and close to
the borders of Europe; Australia was
unknown except along the sea edges

TUESDAY =: JANUARY /

A Happy New Year to every man,
woman and child in Hawaii, of whatever
color or condition or estate. May the
great waters be gentle and generous of
food and kind to those who journey on
them; may the land blossom with the
fruits of thrift and industry; may trade
and commerce reach further out and
secure richer prizes; may health and
comfort be the portion of the many races
here, and may peace rest within our
borders.

The schools of Hawaii are among it's
most admirable features of daily life. In
no western States is there a wider diff
fusion Of knowledge or a smaller per-
centage, among stationary inhabitants,
of illiteracy. No one need be reluctant
to emigrate to Hawaii for fear that ia
cilities of education may be lacking.
There are schools wherever needed,
common schools, seminaries, high
schools and collegiate institute which
has trained some of the most distin-
guished men on these Islands, and some
who have made their marks abroad. AS
good an education as one needs in the
practical affairs of life may be had
here; ard if university course is de-
sired more than one island school gives
efficient preparation for it.

Every move made in favor of the
Nicaragua canal is watched with solicit
tude in Hawaii, where there is no reason
to doubt the good effects of such a
waterway upon trade and commerce
The expectations of Coast ports, from
Seattle to San Diego, may not be real
lied, but a glance at the geography is
enough to convince one that much Of
the commerce which the canal would
build UP between the Atlantic coast of
the United States and the ports of
Japan, China and the Philippines, would
have to pay toll at the crossroads of the
Pacific. All other stations in this great
ocean, save Guam, are unfortunately
placed for use as a tarrying point The
key of the situation is held BY these
Islands, and from the month on which
the canal is opened. Hawaiian values,
great as they already are must take tn.

The Board of Health IS commencing
itself to everybodys good will by apply
ing the ounce of prevention to epidemic
diseases. Had former boards done their
duty under the law, plaques might never
have made incursions The present
health authorities having learned the
lesson of past experience, are doing
their best to keep epidemics out One
of their latest measures that to pre-
vent the importation of Chinese eggs,
packed in mud, is a precaution which
ought to have been adopted years ago.
Naturally, Hawaii is one of the most
healthful spots on the globe, and with
proper sanitary vigilance at the wharves
and in the crowded towns, its fame as
sanitarium would be unmarried by the
introduction of alien epidemics.

Now that combinations in restraint of
trade have been driven to the wall in
Hawaii the cost of living should de-
crease. Through the tabu on price
agreements and the freedom with which
drummers may enter this field, competi-
ton is assured, and that means fair
play to the customer. During the pres
ent week chickens, oysters, eggs and
other delicacies and staples were sod for
less money than at any time before in
years; and various lines of groceries
and dry goods have fallen If lumber
goes down to a reasonable price houses
may be built at cost that will permit
lower rents. and that lumber will go
down during 1901 seems to be a fair
prediction, based on the eagerness of
outsiders to get into the market. 1t will
be a happy New Year indeed if it intro
duces the principle of live and let live"
in the field of Hawaiian business.
