HE AND WE ARE HoNoRED.

The transfer of Professor Alexander
from the head of the local survey de-
partment to a prominent and perma-
nent post on the Coast and Geodetic
Survey is an honor thoroughly deserved
by the Professors great abilities, and
through him is an honor TO the Terri
tory. The Territory has need 20 he
proud that one of her own sons, born on
her soil, educated in part in her own
schools, should when the great change
came be chosen to most important
post in the scientific governments STAFF
of the Great Republic.
Professor Alexander is emincntly a
scholar. The word is constantly mis-
used. but it is applicable to him, and
perhaps him only on the Hawaiian ISL
ands. Many subjects, and their names
cover a large part of modern know
ledge the Professor knows thoroughly
and we'll There has not been a scien-
tific man, who has visited these islands,
that has not sought an introduction to
the Professor, and has not learned from
him.
Not only has he done the work of the
survey department in a manner which
is a surprise to and wins congratula-
tions from all who are connected with
this work but there are few branches
of science which he is not acquainted
with, not in a superficial manner, but
with an intimate knowledge, which
other lesser lights lay claim to, but
which pale before the quiet, unobtru-
sive logic of the quiet Professor.
AS an historian Professor Alexander
proved himself. some years ago, clear
minded full of research and eminently
fair, even when dealing with things
which might have aroused prejudice
AS an educator in his early years he
was singularly successful and as a
leading member of the Board of Educa-
ton and now a commissioner of edu-
cation he has been a tower of strength.
The local survey suffers a loss by
Professor Alexander's advancement.
But it gains in that the Professor re-
mains as one of the chiefs of the Coast
and Geodetic work in this section not
alone of Hawaii but of other portions
of the Pacific. No greater compliment
could have been paid to the territory
than to have mad it's eminent scientist
and scholar become a member of so dis
tinguished a service as the Coast and
Geodetic work of the United States Of
America.

will be cheaper to send goods round the
Horn to Honolulu, than it is to send
them by rail across the continent.
Goods destined for the Orient might be
brought to Honolulu in nfty-eight days,
and might be shipped hence to the
Orient reaching there in sevorty days or
so from the time they left New York,
and the cost of handling, and risk of
damage would be very much less than
by the railroad route.
But when the one or other of the
canals is built the time will be wonder
fully reduced. Instead of ffty-eight
days from New York to Honolulu the
time will be reduced to thirty or
thirty-eight days and few hours for
vessels only making two hundred miles
day, and could be reduced still more
by spcedier vessels. An ordinary ten
knot vessel, which means eleven and
a half statute miles per hour, would
run two hundred and seventy-six miles
day.
From New York to Honolulu, via the
Panama canal, C47 miles) is 1899 miles.
Nicaragua canal $50, miles) is 743S
miles. This apparently gives the
Nicaragua route the benefit of 261
miles, or to put it roughly the benefit
of a days time. At 200 miles at a day
steamer would reach Honolulu from
New York via Panama in SS days, and
one via Nicaragua in 81 days Given
greater speed, such as that of the
liners and the time might be reduced
almost one-half.
But this is only one way of looking at
the matter. The calculation as to the
time of passing through the canals must
be considered. The average speed on
the Panama route is reckoned at 81
miles an hour. The average speed on
the Nicaragua, owing to short curves
at miles per hour. Allowing for vari-
Gus contingencies, the time for passing
the Panama canal would be 70 hours
80 minutes against AZ hours 81 minutes
by the Nicaragua route. This gives
80 hours advantage to the Panama
route, which offsets the greater length
of distance by twelve hours or half a
day.
Il is thus clear that it does not mat
ter to the Islands which route is taken,
but it is also clear that once either
route is settled upon Honolulu and
other ports on the Islands will become
entrepots of trade. and the American
Hawaiian Steamship Company will be
able to get the foremost step in the
trade. Hawaii's heritage is coming as
surely as the surf rolls booming on it's
coral strand and against it's lava rocks.

THE SIGN OF PROGRESS.

The change between steam and sail
in carrying our sugar to the Atlantic
market will probably be hardly realized
by the Territory for some time But
it is a momentous change, and it is
all in the direction of the trans-lsth-
milan canal, the reasons for which are
plain. With the canal, whether Near
aqua or Panama, the matter of speed
will be the main point. To pay the
dues of the canal and then depend up
on sail for getting either to the en-
trance, or from the Acknowledgement
would be a serious item in raising the
expense. Indeed it would be difficult
TO guage, granted the mischances of
winds, and the length of time getting
through the canal under tow, besides
the regular dues of the canal itself,
now much it would cost 4 sailing vessel
10 use such route
But the American Hawaiian Steam
ship Company has discounted the flu
lure of the canal or canals, and has
inaugurated a steamship line around
the Horn. The vessels that have been
built and the others which are building
are to carry 10000 tons each and expect
to make the trip between New York
and Honolulu in fifty-eght days. This
puts freights from the East within
comparatively easy reach Of us Island
ers. The steamers are to run fortnight
ly. 1t takes at present n week to COM
municate with the Coast, but it does
not take long to telegraph to New York
from San Francisco and goods can be
hustled out in good shape by the firms
there. Within seventy days of an or
der leaving here for the East, it would
be quite possible for the goods to be re-
ceived here, and that without the han
ding and rehandling which is required
over the railroad.
If we had a cable the time would be
shortened considerably. Goods could
be ordered two days before the steamer
left and the length of passage would be
only sixty days or two months. But
when the canal comes We shall be very
much nearer and Eastern produce and
manufactures will come into strong
competition with the West, especially
if the West continues to depend on
sailing ships for her development in
the merchant marine, but this of course
she will not do.
But these steamers which are now be-
ing built to ply around the Horn from
New York to San Francisco via Homo
lulu, will be quite ready to take up
the canal trade whenever it is opened.
They will have their contracts and
their arrange ments of trade with Paci-
fic ports all ready, whenever the canal
facilities may call for them to be ex-
plotted and put forth.
Moreover there is no reason, even at
the present, why these steamers should
not help our Eastern trade and make
Honolulu what it hopes to be the entre-
pot between the East and the West 1t

The introduction of 100000 Chinese
settlers into Mexico seems rather a
large order, but no doubt Mexico can
set aside lands sufficient for the pur-
pose. With a million Chinese on our
Southern border we shall have consid-
cradle work in carrying out our exclu-
sion act. 1t is one thing to keep out peo-
pie when one has practical control Of
every vessel entering out ports, but it
becomes quite another thing when hun
dreds of miles of frontier have to be
guarded. Chinese swarm over the Ia
madam borber as it is. but across the
Mexican border, with a million Chinese
in that country and a continual influx
from the Celestial kingdom, they would
absolutely pour, and we would require
strong military gordon from the At
lantic to the Pacific in order to keep
them out.

MOSQUITOES.

Consul Plumacher of MaracaibO, has
mosquito pest can be abated. The use
of kerosene upon the surface of stag
nant water which was alluded to in a
contemporary the other day has been
talked of for many years past. Whether
Mr.. Plumachers' advice is good or not
will be a matter of easy experiment, if
any one will take the trouble to try.
The consul says:
"A simple remedy against mosquitoes
has been employed in several places in
South America and is equally well
adapted to the temperate zone. 1t con-
sists in planting the castor-oil plant
Ricinus community, or palma christi
around the house and premises.
In cold and temperate climates the
castor-oil plant grows to a height of 4
or feet; in these countries, it becomes
a tall tree and is perennial. 1t seems
that the smell of the plant is disagree
able to mosquitoes and other insects,
and it is an acknowledged fact that
where these plants grow few mosquitoes
will be found.
My personal experience bears this
out. My residence is surrounded by
plantain and banana trees, and
have been much troubled in the past
by the great number of mosquitoes
which gathered between the leaves
Following the example of old settlers
in the country, l planted the castor
seeds which grew up in profusion and
there are now no mosquitoes to be
found among the platain and banana
trees, although l keep the ground well
irrigated. BY keeping branches and
the seeds of the plant in rooms, the
mosquitoes are driven away from the
latter"
the latter portion of the advice is
certainly easy to follow. There is any
quantity of castOr-oil plant growing
wild all over the islands, and if
branches of castor-oil or the presence
of castor-oil beans will keep these pests
away, why every house holder can arm
himself easily against the foe.
1t has been found that the mosquito
is the direct propagation of one disease,
malarial fever it is suspected that the
insect has many other diseases to it's
discredit. Dr.. Trousseau used to main
tain that the mosquito was instrument
tai in the spread of leprosy. This was
a surmize and the truth or falsity OF
his proposition would require very
careful study before it could be ac-
cepted as a scientific fact. But this is
certain, that not only is the mosquito a
nuisance, but he is acknowledged to
be a source of disease, so that any
method of fighting him is to be COM
mended.

The Beet Sugar Stu alton.

Ii has been noticed that the sugar
produced this season at Oxnard has
been allowed to accumulate at the
American Beet Sugar Co.'S warehouse.
That which has gone forward to dis,
tributing points is nearly all stored
there. In fact, very little of this
years output has been soli-none in
fact since the Sugar Trust" declared
war and cut prices. The heavy beet
sugar men OF the coast, the American
Beet Sugar Go. (the Oxnards) the
Alamitos Co. the Clarks) were not
born yesterday. They recognize that
that sugar is a staple necessity, of
which the United State imports 500,
000,0 worth annually. When the
"trust" made the cut they saw no
reason why they should give sugar
away, SO they simply withdrew their
stock from the market and allowed
the "trust" to fill all orders at loss.
The result is that the "trust" has
lost the difference between the nor
NAL price and the cut price. The
beet sugar men have their stock
on hand ready to sell at regular
legitimite prices. 1t has been noted
that they have not been greatly dis
turbed, and 80 far all the "trust" has
accomplished has been to spend a
part of its S15,0O0,OOO increased
capital and has warned the farmers
of its purpose to crush one of their
most important industries-if they
can induce congress to admit raw
sugar free.-Oxnard (Cal) Courier.
The same policy of storing has
been practiced by the Rocky Ford
factory. In "bucking against the
beet sugar makers the sugar trust has
met antagonists with both brains and
money, which, coupled with the great
extent ofagricultural country identi-
fed with the growth of sugar beets,
will make sugar trust victory i'm
possible.-Rocky Ford Enterprise.
