THE SUBSIDY
IS WANTED
STEAMSHIP COMPANY
OBJECTS TO A PROPOSAL TO
STOP PAYMENTS.

Wilder's Steamship Company has
sent a letter to the Board of Health
protesting against a proposal to stop
payment of the companys subsidy for
Molokai steamer service. The letter
was read at yesterdays meeting of the
Board but no action was taken, the
Board regarding the matter as one
chiefly concerning the Treasury De-
partment. The letter was as follows:
Honolulu, T. H., Dec. 16, 1908.
"Dr. Charles b. Cooper, President of
the Board of Health, Honolulu.
Dear Sir: In reply to your favor of
December Is i'm which you ask if the
subsidy now paid for weekly passenger
service to various ports on the Island
of Molokai Lanai and Maui could not
be dispensed with, through the fact
that retrenchment is necessary in the
expenditures of the Board of Health.
I'VE would say that this subsidy is
paid to insure communication between
Honolulu ana ports which would other
wise be absolutely cut off from the rest
of the world. The business offered by
the windward ports on the Island OF

Molokai and the Island OF Lanai is so
small that the gross returns would not
pay for the coal alone consumed in the
service between them, and the neces-
sity FOR this service is evidenced by
the fact that the Legislature has made
u regular appropriation for this pur-
pose for a long term of years.
In submitting tenders for service to
the Leper Settlement we based our
rates on the fact that this subsidy
would be paid, and i'm submitting ten
ders for mail contracts this matter
also was taken into consideration.
Further, while this subsidy does not
apply directly in all cases to the trans
portation of leper suspects to Homo
lulu, we have given this matter consid-
cradle weight when making a charge
for the latter service.
I'VE would also state that we have
ordered a new steamer to run on the
route covered by this subsidy, presum-
ing that after the Legislature had
made a provision for this service there
would be no doubt as to the availability
of the funds.
For the foregoing reasons, and hav-
ing acted in good faith presuming that
this subsidy would be continued, we
have taken steps to provide a first
class service under its terms, and
should the same be discontinued we
should suffer a very heavy financial
loss. We accordingly request that the
same be not withdrawn.
Very truly yours,
"WILDER'S STEAMSHIP CO.,
&C. L. Wight, President"

The length of time a human being
can go without food before death
varies considerably. DR.. Tanner was
the pioneer of professional fasters. He
with his forty days of starvation, was
outdone by Succi, with fortv-five.
Succi in turn was outdone by Jacques
who in London ten years ago alb
stained from food for City days.
There is no authentic record of Jac-
ques' feast being equaled by any pro-
fessional faster. But q still more
wonderful effort of abstinence was
that of Guillaume Grainle, a French
murderer, who refused food in the
hope Of escaping theguillotine. This
was in the jail at Toulouse, and the
circumstances were such that no de-
ception was possible. He tasted for
sixty-three days during which time he
drank only eightor ten pints of water.
Then he died.
