such prosperity are considerable and
not to be overlooked.
No record exists OF the imports from
the Mainland since June 1900, but for
the five months and fourteen days to
June IL 1900, the importations from the
Mainland were valued at $500, 500 be-
ing at the rate OF about $1S,7S5,U.0 per
annum, and these figures convey some
idea of what our trade with the Main
land can be brought to under favorable
conditions.
The value Of the exports from Hawaii
for twelve months to June &c. 1902, was
S24,754922, all of which went to the
Mainland, excepting 1866 which was
exported to foreign countries.
The exports have been of course,
mainly made up of sugar but some
rice coffee, fresh fruit honey, hides,
wool, etc, etc, have also been ex-
ported.
1t is proper to mention here that
fresh and canned fruits could be made
articles of export to a much larger eX-
tent than at present were our labor
conditions more favorable. For exam
pie, the canning of pineapples, which
has been carried on here to a limited
extent, is sure to become a large in
ustry if he can have the necessary
labor, for the Hawaiian pineapple is
most highly esteemed for it's size and
flavor which have commanded for It a
higher price in the Mainland markets
than other canned pineapples.
Sisal is another infant industry which
is commanding attention. The plant
grows well and readily here and, with
out a doubt, large quantities of this
valuable fibre could be raised here with
the necessary labor to do the decori-
eating and preparing thereof.

HEALTH MATTERS.


The necessity for establishing and
maintaining at the port of Honolulu
most modern and effective disinfecting
plant for use on steam and sailing YES
sells, and also of a thoroughly equipped
quarantine stations, is no doubt, mani
fest to you.
AS diseases, when epidemic, gradually
extend to other countries along estab-
lished lines of travel, this port should
be prepared to care for any infected
vessel which might arrive taking
therefrom and caring for any sick per-
sons without endangering this commu-
nifty, and cleansing the vessel before
allowing it to proceed on its course to
mainland ports
AS the greater part of the vessels
from the Orient now stop at this port
on their way to San Francisco and 9TH
err Coast ports this place becomes a
buffer" as it were, between the East
and the West, and efficient quarantine
work here becomes a matter of great
Importance to the Pacific Coast as
well as to this community.
Officers of the Marine Hospital Serv-
ice, we presume, have made this mat

LAND LAWS.
In the opinion of this Chamber it is
deemed that any radical change of the

We ask your consideration of the
great need of this Territory for Federal
Buildings. There should be new post
offices in Honolulu and Hilo. In botn
places business has far outgrown the
accommodations. The quarters now
used by the Federal Courts in their va
rious departments are totally made
quate. Persons held for offences against
United States laws, or as witnesses,
have to be placed in the already over
crowded Territorial prisons. No such
place as a general house of detention
exists. The business of the United
States Courts is already large and must
inevitably increase in the immediate
future.

SHIPPING.

A fact worth mentioning is that all
of the exports from Hawaii to the Unl.-
ed States are now carried by American
vessels, and this can be said of no 9TH
er country that trades with the Main
land.
For the fiscal year ending June 30,
1902 the tonnage and number of vessels
entering Hawaiian ports in the Coast
wise" trade-that is the trade with the
Mainland-was 917, 0S9tona represented
by 593 American vessels.
Foreign vessels entering the ports
were 210 of tonnage of 399,O49. 1t
will thus be seen that the total shipping
entered at all the ports of the islands
for the year was 500 vessels of 1,316,13
tons, which indicates, as well as any,
thing else can, the extent and value of
the trade of this little mid-Pacihc
group.
