third notice." Every editor has
received them. The postmaster is
not to blame. For instance there is
a man named Tim Short sent us
three notices to stop his paper, he
did not want it any longer. We
wondered what was the matter.
Upon investigation of our subscrip-
ton list we found Tim was short
$3.50. He had never paid cent, yet
he had stopped his paper as mat
ter of ecomony-to us. A few even
ings ago we stepped into the church
and Tins melodious tenor rang
out in that soul stirring song,
"Jesus paid it ALL" We might have
been mistaken but his earnestness
impressed us. The next day we
sent him receipt in full, beg
ging his pardonf or not knowing
that he had made an assignment OF
his liabilities.

1t is conceded by all experienced
editors that they, themselves, are
about the poorest qualified persons
in the community to run local
paper. A young editor may feel
little nettled to be told that he ought
to get more news, write spicy, and
make his paper readable. He feels
that he is doing his best. He knows
that it takes a cheap of writin'" to
make column of printed matter,
and after putting in hard weeks
work, and straining his conscience
in flattering personal notices, it is
rather discouraging, indeed. to be
told that "there's nothing in his
paper" Such remarks, however.
never disturb the man who is thor
Oughly acquainted with MS critics..
He knows that they mean but a
small fraction of what they say.
He knows that for years he has de-
Tended his town against all unjust
attacks; that he has warded off at
tacks not wholly unjust; that he has
held up the good deeds of
his neighbors before all the world
while he has exercised the char ity
of silence in the treatment of their
faults and errors. He pleads guilty
to the charge of "hot giving all the
news" where call the news" might
bring blush of shame to the cheek
of some unfortunate fellow creature
who is perhaps no worse than the
average of mankind.

Che Washington Mercantile Co., Ctd.

In 1896 Samuel Lowden started in the
hay and grain business, in what was
small way, as compared with the COM
panies that had been doing business in
those lines in Honolulu for a number
of years previous. The business was
evidently inaugurated at a most pro-
pitiouS time however as it did we'll
from the very first day and grew with
astonishing rapidity, making it neces-
s5ry to keep adding to the working
force, both inside and out. During this
period the business was being conduct
ed under the name of the Washington
Feed Co, and additional lines were be-
ing taken on. one of the most import
ant being the agency of the Port Cos
ia Milling Co.'S flour, thousands Of
sacks of which We're sold to the city
and island trade every month.
Early IN 1899 the business had grown
to such magnitude that it was deemed
best to incorporate and this was done
April 18th, 1899 under the name of the
Washington Mercantile Co., Limited,
ard a full line of fancy and staple
groceries was taken on. Agencies were
offered and accepted from some OF the
largest and best known concerns In the
United States, such as the Cudahy
Packing Co. Standard Biscuit Co,
I
niaIs Best Flour, Graham Bros. & Cos
Toilet Soaps. Hill Bros. Butter, etc
The concern passed into the control
OF several young men of acknowledged
energy, ability and probity who have
srared no effort in pushing it to the
front until it is now recognized as one
of the heaviest importers in its line IN
the Islands.
The present officers of the company
are NJ. j. Bissell. President and Man
aeer: c. S. Richardson, Vice-President;
Geo. L. Morgan, Secretary; Edward L.

The history of the messenger service
in Honolulu can be set forth by few
facts in regard to the American
started by Edgar Henriques in 1898 and
incorporated in Octoba~ The bus
mess was looked upon as something of
an experiment at the start, out it
caught on quickly, the public having
apparently been waiting for just such
a convenience and giving it liberal
patronage from the very day of its in
auguration.
AS the business houses and the con-
servatives came to realize that it was
both a time and money saver for them
it's business increased until. by general
request special call boxes were placed
in all of the principal office and bust
ness blocks. the service being found
indispensable.
