PLANTERS ARE PROVING TO
BE THEIR OWN WORST ENEMIES

Editor Advertiser: l have read your
mess men of Honolulu, for the purpose
of inspecting the estate of the Nc
Bryde Sugar Company, and rejoice with
you to hear that this company is all
right, and that they have such bright
prospects ahead. But / want to say
that it is my opinion that neither the
hest conditions or the brightest pros
poets can avail anything until the labor
question is settled. And I quite appre-
ciate MI Stoddard's remarks when he
saws that the only thing he fears is
the labor question; and that this is a
vital question no one can deny. Indeed
if seems to me there never was time
when there was more trouble to get
1aborers to work or when there were
more difficulties besetting the sugar
cane Industry of these Islands. On the
Mainland there are class of men like
BYRON and the sugar planters of Louis
lana. and such sheets as the Louisiana
planter, that are doing their utmost to
down this industry. At home the Home
Rulers in the Legislature are doing their
hest to ruin and break up this bust
ness. and the planters themselves, by
consenting to the demands of the jap
anese. are doing the most harm of all.
no not the planters know that the
Jans come here for the purpose of max
ing their little pile, which l find
amounts to anywhere from 5000 to 1000
and that when they have saved that
amount they are off. and, as general
thing, this country knows them nc
more. And in consequence the hlghei
wages they get the sooner they are
gone. And this the planter depletes his
own pocket and the labor market al
the same time. And what is still worse
the more money these men get the more
worthless they become. There seems &c
be no end to the demands OF the Jap

Islander Returns
To Cool
Off.
IN NEW YORK
DURING DOG DAYS
Warmer There Than He Had Ever
Found 1t in the
Tropics.

It'll take the heat of the Islands ev-
cry time in preference to that of the
States said Mr.. John C. Searle, who
has just returned from the Mainland,
at the Hawaiian Hotel last night This
expression of opinion was called forth
by question from an Advertiser re-
porter as to how the heat of the States
h;,c affected him. Mr.. Searle made
rather extensive tour, going as far east
as New York. He was in the metropo-
lis of the United States during the hot
spell, when men We're dying from the
heat by the score.
of the Islands in my lifetime but found
nothing to compare with the heat I was
compelled to endure in the States. New
York was the hottest place l had ever
been in, and the only thing I could find
worthy of comparison is steam bath
The heat there was a good deal more
oppressive than it is here. Here you
perspire but evaporation follows imme
diately and cools one. There you per-
spire even more freely and the water
/ stands out in drops. There is no es-
Gaping the heat and the perspiration
sticks to the body. In New York dur
ing my stay there was an average of
thirty to forty heat prostrations daily
and five or six deaths every day. I in
tended to make longer visit at Wash
ington but was afraid the heat would
have a serious effect upon my health"
Mr.. Searle visited the Patent Office
at Washington to have patented an
idea by which he hopes to lessen the
present difficulty in getting rid of mos
quitoes. His idea is to extract the
aroma from buhac by means of a
smokeless burner BY this means he
would do away with all the disagree
able features of the preventive and yet
! retain the good qualities
What was the thing that struck me
most forcibly? Let me see; l believe
it was the number of strikes in force
over the entire country. There were
] strikes at San Francisco, Rochester,
New York, Los Angeles and other cit
les. They appeared to be SO numerous
that I took the trouble to inquire, and
was told that they were caused by the
general prosperity of the county, which
caused such scarcity of labor as to

them came thousands of miles to attend,
for the express purpose of having fell
lowshfp with their Christian brethren and
of asking God not only to bless their
work but to show them what they could
do that they might be the instrument in
His hands of clarifying His name; and
believe under those circumstances God
will wonderfully bless their work
The work of the Y NJ c. A. as shown
at those meetings must appeal to the
man of the world in any station, because
| 1t IS done on business principles and the
men practice what they preach, in other
words, they want to do work for the
young men and they do it, not merely
stand up and ask for help for some
thing they think is a good thing; they
| get right down and do hard work them
selves and that will appeal to any true
hearted men.
man of the world today will tell you
if you ask him to attend any particular
| religious meeting, that he has not time
to go to the church, and 1 believe that
the Y. NJ. c. A. can get hold of that
man and bring him to realization of
what he owes to God, to his fellowman
and to himself, as no other organization
can. 9
Then again the brotherly love and
none who attended that Convention
| could doubt is a great factor in the
| success of the work of the Y. NJ. c. A
The difference existing in churches and
between Christian people today does
more toward helping worldly people
away from Christ than we can imagine
! The law of the gospel is the law of
| love-
| One other great feature which helps
| the successful work of any Christian or

by sanctified, cody men and women.
believe that the Y. M. c. A. have used
the proper method when they select their
| singers from their own members and
have them sing pieces which tend to
uplift men and to glorify God and such
men those who sang at the Conven-
ton, singing to praise God, do a very
| large part toward bringing to a knowledge
and love of Christ; and I believe that
such singing will always be blessed by
| God
! The Y. NJ. G. A. has large work to
| do, as was seen in the Convention, has
noble God fearing men in all parts of
the world helping with that work and I
believe that God will marvelously bless
the earnest prayerful works of such
men and that much good will be done
| through their efforts.
! No work that was not dedicated to God
could ever have such results, in the up
J lifting of men, and / do not believe

ton could ever have. delegates from so

anese. and where this is going to end
is a question unless the planters be-
stir themselves.
Now there is no reason whatever for
this state of things, and if the planters
will only combine and all stand by each
other they can quickly put stop to
this high handed proceeding of the
festive japanese. In the first place. it
is we'll known that not per cent of
these men have a home or a habitation
of any kind; and that, as they are
known to either send their money to
Japan or gamble it away as fast as they
get it, it is impossible for them to go
on a strike for any length of time. And
in consequence the Japs must either
work or starve. From this it will be
seen that the winning card is in the
hands of the planter, and the question
is will he play it and win, or will he
weakly give in to the Japanese's I'M
reasonable demands and lose
! There is one thing dead certain-that
if the planters do not act quickly and
at once the sugar industry will be
doomed on these Islands, for no indus
try can exist under the present state of
things. SO it's time to be up and do
ing; and I would like to ask why the
planters cannot agree to combine, and
all agree to pay a fair and reasonable
wage to these men, and that under no
circumstances whatever will they pay
another cent. This is one way, and as
far as / can see the only way to deal
with these fellows. And that it can be
done no one will, I think. deny 1t is
certain that something of this kind will
fo no or, 1ot his
sugar industry is to be carried on.
think most of the planters are tired OF
being run by these Japanese; and al
of them that I have spoken to would
be only too willing to form strong
combination to get even with them.
I remain, yours truly,

THE FATAL I'll"


When pastor of a church in one Of our
mining towns where there were large
number of Cornish miners I was called
upon to baptize an infant at the close of
our Sunday school session one afternoon
That there might be no misunderstanding
L carefully inquired the name of the
child, and was assured that it was Anna
Belle. Thus fortified, when the subject
for baptism was presented I proceeded
with all confidence to perform the cere-
mony. When said, Name this child"
the rather responded quite clearly "Anna
Belle and everything passed off smooth
ly But after dismissal an American
neighbor came to me and inquired why
l used the pronouns she and her in bap-
tizing that child, and informed me it was
boy. "a boy!' I gasped; Impossible!
It's name was Anna Belle ooh, no, it
wasn't; it was Hannibal" That fatal
H had betrayed me.-Homiletic Re-

Distinsuished Visitors.

Two Pullman cars were dropped from No. this morning. The car contained the California travelling passenger men and their wives and daughters, who came this far to give the travelling rep resentatives of eastern roads hearty reception.
 The special train of six Pullman cars from the east will not arrive until F o'clock tonight and the California con- tingent spent the day here. Carriages were procured and many of the mem- bers of the party visited the if dwell- ings and other points of interest in this vicinity. When the special train ar- rives the entire party will go to the Grand Canyon and after a day spent there will go to Los Angeles to attend the annual convention of the National Travelling Passenger Agents Associa- tiOn, to be held there next week. J. J. Byrne and w. K. Gregory of the Santa Fe are the leading spirits of the Cali fornia contingent.

Important to Shoepmon.

Notice has been received that all sheepmen desiring to cross any of the excluded areas of the forest reserve must first secure permit from the interior department. This applies to all sheep whether those heretofore permitted on the reserve or those who have not grazed on the forest reserves, except those who have permits to graze on the reserve, may of course, cross open areas in going off the reserve.
 To cross excluded areas applicants are required to make formal application showing the route they desire to take, the number of sheep they wish to drive across, the time they expect to remain on the reserve, together with reasons for desiring to cross.
 A number of applications of this kind have been rejected by the secre- tary of the interior, believing that their object was mainly to graze their sheep on the closed ranges.

The fourth entertainment in the course will be given next Friday, Oc- tober l5, at 8 p. m., in the assembly hall of.Emerson High School. It will be an evening of mirth, mimicry and mystery by Mccormick, who is said to be the worlds greatest whistling imi- tatOr.
 Mccormick has entertained in thirty different states and has given over ROO entertainments in Chicago alone. The press notices from all parts of the cOun- try regarding his work as whistling imitator and magician are exceedingly fattering.
 It is expected that a crowded house will greet MT. Mccormick. The ad- mission fee for those not holding course tickets will be 9 cents. For program and further particulars see handbills.

Election of Officers.

The Flagstaff Drainage & Improve ment Company have elected the follow ing officers for the ensuing year: Jul lius Aubineau, president; Dr. D. J. Brannen, vice-president; A. F. Andre, secretary; T. E. Pollock, treasurer.
 The following stockholders comprise the board of directors: J. Aubineau, Dr. D. J. Brannen, J. A. Vail, E. s. Gosney, J. G. Verkamp.
 The company is private one and expects to derive but little profit from its investment, and when the city is able to assume the responsibility of the sewage system it will be disposed of to the town at cost. A dividend of four per cent was declared.
 The sewage system should be ex- tended, and there should be some way of making those in the present district connect with the sewer, thus adding to the health of the town.
