THE FARMERS OUTLOOK.

The report says generally; The
outlook to the farmer is encourag-
ing. A great many farmers are Civ
ing attention to fruit growing. and
some bearing apple orchards are pay
ing $500 and over per acre this year.
We have the best fruit growing State
in the Union. Kansas sold her APP
pie crop this year for fifteen million
dollars, Virginia has the soil aud
climate to produce crop Of apples
which would bring even a greater
sum. She is located at the door Of
the best markets in this country
The quality of our Virginia fruits
has not been equalled by any other
State.
There is also a growing inclination
to keep more stock, which is a
healthy indication of better farming
This State can pasture three million
sheep just as well as the three humid
red thousand she is now keeping.
Our farmers are now studying the
combination of feeds, and are feed
ing more for special purposes, and
not wanting feed by giving the same
ration to all kinds of stock. More
attention is given to the selection OF
the different grasses and forage
crops for the different soils and sec
tions of this State Richmond

IT'S A SOLID PLATFORM ALL RIGHT
PAINS ARKS BLOCK TRANSIT
SYSTEM ON KING STREET

When the Rapid Transit cars started
over the entire King street route yester-
day morning for the first time, they met
with unexpected obstructions near the
corner of Smith and King streets in the
shape of tram cars on the Pain system
All during the forenoon fate seemed to
bring Rapid Transit and tram cars to-
gether at this particular place and finally
the police had to be called there to IN
tangle the mess. Persons who patronized
the Rapid Transit cars on the King street
route wondered why they had TO welt SO
long on various switches, but when they
came to Maunakea street the reason was
plain.
Between Smith and Maunakaa streets
the tram company has a switch peculiar
to that system. It is elliptical in shape
and of the crazy type in vogue on little
one-horse lines. All switches on Pains
system are '1efthanded,'' that is the cars
turn to the left, English fashion. instead
of to the right American fashion. Just
before the track comes to the opening
of the switch on the Smith street end
it leaves the middle of King and swings
over considerably to the nakai side. This
construction caused the Rapid Transit en-
glneers some trouble as the Rapid Transit
track also had TO be swung farther tow
ard the ma,iai curb in order to have clear
passing space between the tram and cleo
tric cars at all times. This caused mar
rowing down Of the space between the
curb and the makai rail of the Rapid
Transit track, until vehicles now have no
free way to stand there while cars pass
by as on other parts on King street.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1902-09-06

Where the tram switch is widest the
Rapid Transit tracks have been swung
over almost to the curbing. This was
dangerous both for the cars and passen-
gers, and it was decided that instead of
taking up all the space on the makai
side of the street, to let the Rapid 1ran-
sit track go straight along, after a Slight
makai curvature, thus bringing the maukG
rail of the Rapid Transit and the makai
rail of the bulging switch of the tram
only about foot apart When tram car
stopped on the left hand side of the
switch on its way TO Palama and waited
for tram to come from Palama toward
town, there was no room for a Rapid
Transit car to pass along, and the -raIn
car having the right of way, by priority
of track laying, held up the electric car
at its pleasure.
Car after car on the electric system was
stalled on one side or the other Of the
bulging switch and the big heavy arks,
which seemed to have been placed on a
new schedule just TO annoy the Rapid
Transit Company, were as much an OBJ
strIction as q stone wall. From three to
six rlinutes were lost to the electric cars
by the various waits. and naturally tue
rest of the system was mixed up Man
ager Balientyne and others Of the Rapid
Transit Company went to the scene and
tried to have the drivers OF the tram cars
which held up electric cars move further
along, or else wait on the main track IN
til the car from the other direction came
in sight. The drivers would not aceede to
this.
Manager Pain also came along. accom-
panied by his attorney, Mr.. Breckons,

which met with the representatives of
the Fourth to agree to the time for the
Joint session, reported that the meet
ing would be held on Monday evening
at Progress hall at o'clock The.com
mittee proposed that the meeting
should be called to order by Chairman
Crabbe of the Territorial committee,
that rules should be then reported after
which the officers of the joint conven-
ton should be named. After this the
joint convention should break UP into
caucuses and report candidates for the
Senate. 1t was the opinion of the COM
mittees that the ballots should be of
uniform size, color and thickness
There was some confusion over the
verbal report and Avery was made to
write it out and the committee then ac-
cepted it.
Chairman Achi then laid before the
committee the letter of the Fourth dis
trict committee, saying that the Fifth
could have two Senators if they were
the unanimous choice of the commit
tee. Wilcox arose and said he would
move to lay on the table, as the letter
not only was an act of dictation to the
committee, but it placed it in the pow
ed of one member of the body to pre-
vent action by refusing to agree to
make any nominations unanimous He
said that the Fourth had no right to
say that the nominations must be
unanimous, for he believed that the
minority would accept any decision of
the majority and would agree to sup
port the ticket named.
James Low agreed with the declara-
ton, and further said there was no
reason why the Fifth should accept
such an ultimatum. and then offered
the following. which was agreed to
unanimously;
Resolved. That the secretary answer
the letter of the Fourth district COM
mittee, to the effect that the Fifth dis

EARLY
MORNING FIRE

Fire broke out at 2:2O o'clock this
morning in a cottage on lower South
street, near the Honolulu Iron Works,
which was burned to the ground. The
chemical engine was the only fire ap-
paratus that could be used. The ada
joining buildings also caught fire but
were saved.
Water had to be carried from Queen
street, and it was fully twenty minutes
before a stream could be obtained.
Forty or fifty people lived in the build
ings, and they succeeded in saving
their effects

and they watched the maneuvers for a
while. At length the deputy hack in
spector was sent to the place, and when
ever tram car got on the switch and
prevented an electric car from passing,
the tram was ordered to move out of the
way to prevent the street from being OBJ
structed. During the afternoon there was
no trouble and the Rapid Transit finally
got the King street schedule Strengthened

Edward G. Tilton. surveyor and civil
engineer, and r. A. Laird, who left Eureka
about two weeks ago to examine into two
proposed routes for an extension of the Eu-
reka & PAlisade Railroad from Eureka to
Tonopah, returned here Wednesday.
On the way to Tonopsh they
vent over the route through Fish
Creek Valley and Hot Creek to Tonopsh.
and found the distance to be about l5O
miles. The return trip was made by way OF
Belmont and DEVILS Gate. and the distance
over this route was las miles. Both of
these routes were found to be fessible, and
Q railroad could be built over either with
out great difficulty or the expenditure OF q
large amount OF capital. 1t is understood,
however, that the latter route was prefer
sbis, owing to it's being over q much more
level country than the route by the way oil

The SENTINEL has been unable TO learn 10
whose interests Mr.. Tilton has been view

willing TO give out any information for
publication. but ii hopes that the building

soon be commenced, and that ii can shortly

But my school work here is such that |
cannot leave again during the campaign
now nearly ended. This l very much re-
greet.
Permit me to say to your people, to the
voters of Eureka county, that l am
utterly opposed to frequent changes in
textbooks. as entailing unnecessary bur-
dens on parents; that | believe in equal
opportunities for all our boys and girls in
all the schools Of the State; hat l be-
lieve the State Superintendent should
put his time largely into visiting the
schools and cooperating with teachers
and school officials for the purpose Of i'm
proving the schools, bringing them into
closer touch with each other, and making
the schools, especially in the country dis
tricts, more practical and efficient for all
our boys and girls.
On these issues, / appeal to all good
citizens, to all who believe in school i'm
provement, for their support. If elected,
| shall, as heretofore, be fair and just to
every one, being a firm believer in the
doctrine Of equal rights to all, special

sketch OF Duncan FalconerIs public life in

Duncan Falconsr, the candidate for State
Senator Of Eureka county on the Repub'
Iican ticket, has never been . politician OF
an Office seeker, but 10 known among The
old-timers as one Of the men who came here
in the early days and has helped build up
the county. He packed his blankets" into
Eureka in 1874, and has spent the bes,
years Of his life here. During his long resi
denoe in Eureka county be has established
for himself . reputation for sterling honesty
and integrity.
Mr.. Fslconer has been extensively en-
gagged In mining and has ever manifested .
deep interest in the oounty's welfare and
the development OF its mines and other re-
sources. His 6rst work in Eureka was for
the Richmond Mining Company, and after
four years Of faithful service, he went TO
mining for himself on Adams Hill. He was
superintendent Of the Tenabo Mining Com
pany's properties at Cortez for some years,
and under his management the company en-
ioyed general prosperity. He is at the
present time largely interested in mines in
both Corsez and Eureka districts and bis

tor from this district Duncan Fslconer will
