conversions among the orientals, succeed
ing which they had departed to their own
good by setting the examples of Christian

be used at any public banquet or function

The Staple Crop.

Sugar will always be the staple crop of
Hawaii, say many people. Even at the
present low prices there is said to be good
profit for those plantations at least which
have the most approved machinery, and in
that respect some of those in Hawaii lead
the world. But even il sugar always re-
mains the principal product of the territory
1t is likely that the efforts now being made
will bring other business of great profit and
a canal across the Isthmus OF Panama will
naturally make Honolulu a calling place for
an immense amount of transPacific ship
ping.

The Land Problem.

The land question Is in the way of the
American farmer who wants to settle in
Hawaii, however. The islands are ready
for the tourist but the farmer cannot come
in very large numbers until there Is more
land available. There are, however, a
number of tracts of extensive area which
the government wants to open up. But it
would be folly to attempt settling some of
them until there are improved roads and
methods of transportation. At a great
many points around the islands the land
ings at which island steamers come and go
are owned by the plantations for and by
which they were made, and the overland
roads to an open port are far from good. 1t
is for remedying some OF these matters that
Hawaii is floating a loan of about two and
quarter million dollars.
