Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1902-06-27

With the exception of May, 1899 and
1900, in fact, failures in the month
just closed were the lightest reported
in May for at least ten years past. LA
bllities show some expansion, 1t IL
true, over those OF April, due mainly
to the inclusion of few private bank
ers, large contractors and builders and
shoe manufacturers, but except, per
haps. in the case of the large building.
trade failures, nothing approaching
structural weakness can be observed,
As to this latter class Of embarrass'
ments, 1t might be said that troubles
growing out OF demands for higher
wages and materials have constituted
an appreciable influence upon build
ing activity at several centers.
There were 767 failures in the Unit
ed States reported to Bradstreet's dur,
ing May, with liabilities aggregatine
$S,496,05S and assets of about A per
cent Of this. These figures indicate =
decrease of per cent In number from
the total in April and of 3 per cent
from May year ago. II Is true that
May, 1902, failures exceeded those II
1899 and 1900 by s per cent, but back
of that year comparisons favor the
month just closed. AS to liabilities, it
might be said that they were one.fifth
larger in May than in April, but Ia
per cent smaller than in May year
ago. They were per cent larger than
in May, 1900, and 43 per cent larger
than in May, 1899, but were smaller
than in any preceding May by from
20 to so per cent.

Friday, December %.

CnR1srMAs Btne dAg ofall days OF
good cheer Christmas comes but
once a year IsSn old saying, in fact,
as old as the day itself but the phrase
delights the ear aud every one likes
to utter ii. 1t is an event welcomed
by all, whether religiously inclined or
not 1t is day when there prevails
smeng all the spirit Of the brother
hood of man, a day upon which 1t de-
lights every one to realize that some
one has thought Of his happiness and
has manifested an lnterestin him. In
large measure with many it is an an
nual glee-time and with these, al
though tbeynsy overlook the event
IL Is supposedto commemorate, 1t is
day Of good things, good thoughts,
good motives, and one that benefits.
IL Is even more than this to those OF
religious inclination. They not only
derive all the worldly enjoyment 1T
brings but it places them in closer
communion with the One, whose birth
the day is Intended to keep before t h
minds Of the people. If properly OBJ
served 1T is day when all men will
have a measure of happiness. Some
will find it in giving and others in re-
oeiving. Remembrance win be made
by all classes aud conditions according
to their ability, showing spirit Of
friendship and demonstrating the
fact that mankind after all is single
creation and that love Is common to
the bosoms Of all human beings alike.
The coming of these annual events has
ever worked to the betterment of the
people in some way and has strength
ened the bond Of love among men. II
the present event does no more than
to maintain or repeat the works of its
predecessors, it will have done well.
