There is a common saying that the
man who advertises never is sold out
by the auctioneer. This scarcely is true,
but it is true that the careful man or
business who advertises judiciously
does not fail in business. has no receiv-
ers Amounted to close out his affairs,
and has no occasion for the services or
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Advertiser.
Twenty-Five years ago there were
anv number of business men to be
found who said that advertising does
not nav. But these have disappeared
utterly from the larger marts OF trade.
They either failed in business or they
died of envy and grief. the former De-
cause of the success of their rivals VINO
did advertise or the latter because
they realized that their own business
was going to the "demnition DOW
vows" as Mr.. Mantalini would say.
rhe few that survive are restricted TO
the small towns, and these are TOO lazy
TO wait upon the few customers VINO
enter their place of business. In geome-
try one finds what are termed axioms
which need no demonstration, Tor the
reason that they are seif-eVideh'

ing does pay. This means practicai'

Editor Commercial News:
Dear Sir-Your esteemed favor of
May 10Th was duly received. l note the
contents, and in answer TO your re-
quest for a few lines occasionally re-
garding weather conditions in this re-
gion, have to say that for nine or ten
months of the year the state of the
weather is so equable and uniform, one
Jay is so much like the one preceding
or following, that the keeping of rec
ords becomes very embarrassing.
Records have been kept for several
years at this plantation. which are dis
tinctly local-records kept three miles
on either side OF this plantation may
vary a great deal from those kept at
this place. This place, like all the 9TH
ers, depends on tho rainfall for its
bountiful crops of sugar. This planta-
ton has an extensive system of irriga-
ton bitches which reaches every piece
of cultivated land, however remote it
may be- The source of supply is the
Hanapepe river, a small mountain
stream, and the use of the water is so
nicely controlled by a system of traps
and water gates that very little is
wasted, and there is now a. project I'M
der way increasing the irrigation IA
cilities to double the present acreage
of cultivated land and incidentally to
double it's sugar producing capacity,
and within a very few years it is ex-
pected this Will be a 3e,000-ton planta-

Business will be little brighter on
the waterfront during the coming week
as a number of vessels have arrived
since Saturday and there is conse-
quentIy lot of cargo to be handled.
The American bark General Fairchild
arrived yesterday from Newcastle after
a forty-five day passage. She made
the equator in the good time of % days
but after passing the line took seven
teen days to reach port. She has 220O
tons of coal as cargo. She was lying
in the row yesterday.
The French bark Montebello which
arrived Sunday morning has 5000 tons
of coal aboard. Eighteen hundred tons
of coal will be discharged at the naval
wharf and 1900 tons will be taken on
to San Francisco.
The Norwegian bark City of Ogra
made a good passage from Newcastle.

port.

From the coast the barkentine w.

French Vessel Made Very Fast
Passage Here From
Cardiff.

With both the IrOquois and the AL
morning it looked rather odd to see
a big French bark pushing slowly into
the naval wharf with the tri-color
waving from her stern The bark was
the Montebelio, one of the best equip
ped sailers which has ever arrived in
this port.
The Montebello is commanded by
Captain Marchandeau and not one of
the 81 men on board of her can speak
English, although one man makes re
effert" The Montebello resembles and
is fitted up more like monster pleas
ure craft than a merchant vessel Her
of the ship are done up in a fine man
ner and she has accommodation for a
large number of passengers although
she does not carry any. The crews
quarters are also much better than
those found on most ships and all her
deck fittings, rigging, and machinery
for handling cargo are of modern make
and the best that can be obtained. The
vessel made the trip from Cardiff to
Sydney, where she got orders to come
to Honolulu. in 80 days and after
three days stay in Sydney reached this
port in AZ days. Her trip was pleasant
She will discharge 1900 tons of coal
at the navy wharf and will take the
of her cargo, 1900 tons, to
San Francisco.
