THERE are so many people 10 Porto
Rico, and they are so poor, that many
of them are fleeing from that island
and hiring themselves to the sugar
planters in Hawaii, In order to keep
from starving. So far ut least as the

DISPATCHES from Manila report the
rapid re.establishment OF civil govern

observed that all the civil officers are
men who have bsen detailed from the

government was attempted in the
S,uth after the close OF the war be-
tween the States, but no intelligent
man even pretends to say 1t was sue
cessful. To make conquered people

customs must be respected, and their
civil officers be natives; certainly not
their ccnquerors. But the present re-

WEDNESDAY EVENING. MAR. 1s, 1901

THE Governor OF Mississippi is now
80 "Ioyal" to the national government
that he not only went to Washington
to add to the pomp and pageancy of Mr..
McKin'ey's reinauguration, but carried
all bis staff with him. Conspicuous ex'
hibitious Of "loyalty" by Southern poll
ticIaus are always suspicious. Every
intelligent man who lives in the South
is loyal now, and must be, because
this is the only country be has.
Doubtless there are many OF them who
would live abroad If they had the
requisite money, but as they haven't
they stay here, and, having good sense,
they desire 40 orderly and peaceful gov
ernmen'; but they, nor any other people,
think it at all necessary to make any
extraordinary manifestation OF their
loyalty, and If those who do make 1t
only knew it, such exhibitions are
thoroughly understood both In Wash
ington and 10 the North.

be national loss.n Mr.. Harrison is q
very reputable man and IL highly es-
teemed by all right thinking Americans,
and, by them, his death would be sim
csrely regretted, for people who try to
live honest and reputable lives are not
as numerous now as they might be; but,
for all that, now his demise would be
national loss, Mr.. Cleveland knows bet

AS EVERY meeting of the City Coun-
Gil increases the municipal expense, 1t
would be infinitely better for the tax
payers, and no body would suffer, If
those meetings were held bi, instead Of
semi, monthly. Indeed. taxes are so
high now and money 30 hard TO get,
that many people who own real estate
find it a difficult matter to raise the
amount OF their tax bills.

LATE intelligence from Venezuela lie

REsURvEY OF MAUI
MILL RISKS.
Cement Floors, Iron Stairways, Brick
Walls, Iron Roofs Thought to Qualify
Mills for Lower Rates.

A. r. Gurrey, adjuster for the local
board of underwriters, returned from
Wailuku Saturday night he having
been summoned by wireless biography
to work on the Levers g. Cooke claim.
He began yesterday a systematic exa-
mination of the goods and will make an
inventory of everything of value. Mr..
Gurrey was only called on the Levers
& Cooke stock, there being nothing left
at Halls that would require the services
of an adjuster.
Mr.. Gurrey's business on Maui is
quite important. 1t is, in fact, the be-
ginning of a plan to reduce the in
surance rates on sugar mills through
out the Islands. The present rates were
established many years ago, when ma
chinery was not so good and mills were
not so safe. Since then special atten-
ton has been paid to mill building so
that many of them are almost fireproof.
With cement floors, iron stairways,
brick walls and iron roofs the buildings
would seem to be fairly safe.
Mr.. Gurrey looked through all of the
mills at Waikiki and in Hamakuapoko
district. He would next have visited
the scattering mills of Maui but was
Unexpectedly summoned back to Hono-
lulu. From Maui he will go to Hawaii
and after finishing up that island will
go to Kauai.

INSTRUMENTATION MADJUSTING INSURANCE
ONE OF THE OLDEST SUGAR
ESTATES.
But Always a Losing Venture-Leases
are Expiring and Labor is High-The
End in April.

Hamoa plantation on the Island of
Maui, between Hama and Kipahulu, will
be closed up just as soon as the coming
crop of cane can be taken off, which will
not be later than next April. This con-
clusion has been reached by the stock
holders after every effort to make the
estate pay has been exhausted.
Hamoa succeeded the old Recipro-
city Sugar Company and is one of the
Oldest estates in the Islands. 1t has
controlled about 1900 acres of leased
land, most of which belonged to the
government. When the plantation went
to the wall some years ago Brewer &
Company, H. z. Baldwin and George
N Wilcox were the principal stock
holders. There was a call for a buyer,
and in the words of Treasurer Robert
son. of Brewer & Company 1--WE bit,
and got bit"
The plantation never has paid" says
Mr.. Robertson. I'm fact il has from
the beginning been a money loser. 1t
came nearer paying when Pat McLane
was manager few years ago than ever
before or since. Just now, however
the plantation has encountered another
difficulty. Our lease of the government
land expired about a year ago and we
cannot get it renewed. Leases of pri-
vate lands are also running out and the
owners are demanding much higher
rental. Again we are finding it next to
impossible to get and keep laborers at
HamOa. 1t is an out-of- the-way place
and seems to be generally unuesirab1e
Our conclusion is that we have
thrown away enough money on the es-
tate and that the cheapest alternative
is to give it up altogether. Just as soon
as the coming crop can be gotten off,
which will be by April next, we will let
the place GO"
