OLDA PLAN REVIVED.
Several years ago "a unsuccessful at
tempt was made by Claus Spreckels to
consolidate SpreckelsviIle plantation
with Paia and Hamakuapoko. Recent
events seem to point to a revival of the
old plan on a more ambitious scale.
The new sugar mandatory STYLED Pu-
unene Mill will, it is said, employ 1000
men and have the power of grinding $50
tons of sugar in twenty-four hours. To
keep these powerful machines busy for
| six or eight months it would require not
only the annual crops of Spreclzelsville
and Kihei but also the outputs of Paia
and Hamakuapoko. In fact there is a
report current that the new mill wis
do this sooner or later.
Then, too, the president and manager
of the H. c. Co. visited Nahiku a week
or two ago. and, after viewing the plan
tation. they decided, so it is reported
to recommend the purchase of Nahiku
for the purpose of diverting its water
and distributing it among the three
ons-Spreckelsville. Paia and
Hamakuapoko.
| If all this is true, and taking also In
to consideration. that the business ten
dency of the age is the combination of
enterprises there seems to be. logical
reasons for the prophecy that the con-
solidation of OF least four Maui plan
tations will soon take place.
