In old age the mucous membranes be-

Hawaiian women and white men and
few between Hawaiian women and
Cinnamon. The offspring of both
classes OF marriages are an improve
ment, as rule, on the pure Hawai-
ian, in thrift and business enterprise.
The Portuguese generally intermarry
among themselves. The same is true
with the japanese.
Part Hawaiians as a class are in
creasing. and the rate OF decrease of
the pure Hawaiian appears to be a
diminishing one.
Says the Governor on public lands:
II is evident that the settlement Of
by farmers owning and cultivating
their holdings must be Of gradual
growth. The large area of public
lands held under unexpired leases is
one reason for this. Other reasons
are want of markets, cheap transpOr-
tation, and sufficient good roads Road
making In the Territory, especially in
those portions that have an abundant
rainfall and occasional gulches, Is very
expensive, and constant and expensive
repairs are required to keep roads in
such localities in order. With almost
every new area reserved for settle,
ment new roads have to be laid out
and constructed, as far as possible
though completion OF such roads II
often delayed to the prejudice and dis
couragement of the settlers.
AS the farming class increases Their,
will probably be developed among then
organizations to facilitate the market
ing Of their products. The need o.
such cooperation already exists, rs
the farmer, single handed, has serious
difficulties to overcome in disposinI
OF his produce.
