THE ENGINEERING
ASSOCIATION

The twenty-first regular meeting of
the Engineering Association was held
in Castle and Cookies hall last evening
at which about thirty-fve members
were present.
Mr.. E. Kopke read a paper on "Evap-
Grafton" which is the third in a series
Of papers on the process of manufac-
turing sugar. The reading of the paper
was followed by questioning and an
interesting discussion in which some
fifteen of the members took part
A committee consisting of F. W.
Beardslee. G. p. Dennison, w. G. Hail,
and B. J. Pratt was appointed to ar
range for some kind of an entertain
ment at the annual meeting of the
Association which will be held next
month. Last year the members held a,
banquet, but it has not yet been de-
cided what form this, years celebra-
ton will take.

A NEW SLOT MACHINE.

The Slot machine has entered a
new field. For a long time, by drop
ping a penny in its NAV. the gum
chewer, the man who likes to know
what his exact avoirdupois is, the girl
who loves a lozenge and even the
quick-lunch man hurriedly seeking a
sandwich have been accommodated.
But the new field is a wider one. The
diner in some restaurants can now, by
new invention in the slot" line, rest
at ease while he takes his meals and
reads complacently between bites the
religious notices on the wall, for be-
fore ne sits down he can go to a box,
drop penny in slot and out jumps
key from another slot. That key
opens a closet ample enough for his
nat and coat The very hooks on
which he hangs his clothes lock also go
that even If the door OF the closet were
opened the articles cannot be hurried
away with by anyone but the owner.

Honolulu, August II, 1903.
Editor Advertiser want to heart
lily endorse the action of the Board OF
Health in its campaign against t. 9

Before going to the Saturday even
ing meeting I was thoroughly skepti-
cal of the possibility of materially re-
ducing the number of these pests. But
of the results actually
obtained by Prof. ingalls, and others
convinced me that much can be accom-
plished If every citizen will cooperate.
Upon my own premises have already
found one prolific breeding place, viz:

toward this MISUNDERSTANDING cam
paign may be Of use to others who did
not have the opportunity Of attending

TOURISTS FROM THE ORIENT.

Col. Macfarlane's idea that tourists
may be proftably sought in Japan
will be appreciated by any one who mas
seen how foreigners swarm along its
routes Of travel. The idea is held here
that the great majority of Oriental
tourists see Hawaii anyhow, either go
ing or coming, but this is far from be-
ing the fact. Only a small percentage
of the foreigners who visit Japan reach
that country via the San Francisco
Honolulu lines. Some of them travel
on the Canadian Empress route; 9TH
ers hail from Australia; a multitude
run over from the European colonies
Of Vladivostok, Chefoo. Chenulpo,
Hongkong. Shanghai. Annoy. Saigon,
Singapore, Bangkok, Batavia, Ceylon
and the ports of India; and the rest
are from Europe itself. Every ysa-
these people leave $500. 900 in gold in
Japan and If they knew Hawaii would
expend a million or so more in visiting
the Pacific paradise.
What is needed is the distribution
of literature in all the Oriental hotels
in form adapted for permanent use
in their reading room. and the hanging
OF photographs on their walls; pic
torial literature for ocean steamers;
and an arrangement with such a man
as Tom Mckay to boom the attrac- ,

PLANTERS AND FARMERS.

Col. u. s. Spalding, whose interesting
letter about small farming from a
plantation standpoint was printed in
this paper yesterday. is quite right in
urging that there should be no rivalry
for possession of the soil between The
big agriculturist and the little one. So
far as the Advertiser knows there is
none. The friends OF small farming
have no hostility towards plantations
and Col. Spalding assures us that the
planters are not at odds with the small
farmers. There is every reason why
this should be the case unless, as Col.
Spalding points out, an increased de-
mand for labor in the future should
embarrass both industries and make
them antagonistic.
There is not so much danger Of this
coming to pass as there was. The Ter
ritorial government, which has a right
under a law, the benefits of which are
withheld from private initiative, to i'm
port Iabor-or promote inmigration"-l
has taken the matter in hand. An I'm
migration agent has been appointed |
and he will address himself to the task |
of bringing in enough Portuguese and
other laborers to meet whatever de-
yeIoprnent of it's agricultural resources
the Territory may achieve. The Adver-
fiser, with faith in the success of his
plans. does not think that the increase
OF small farms, which must necessarily
be slow, will either be felt by the
planters or that the small farms them
selves will suffer for hands to till them
And in any event the planters must
have the right of way so long as their
business means more to Hawaii than
any other.
AS to whether the white small farmer
can compete with the importer in sup !
plying Col. Spalding and other plant +
ers with sbutter, beans, potatoes, onions,
harley and the like, the Advertiser
must express a doubt. Small farming 1t
aere does not mean the small farming Il
II the north temperate zone but the
agriculture of the tropics-the produc-
ion of sisaI, tobacco, vanilla, cacao, u
,fneapples, bananas and-in case Con-
rress helps a Iittle-of coffee. We
,eIieve that the man who raises these
commodities for export can also pro-
'ide vegetables, butter, eggs, berries
nd fruit for his own use; but he can
ardly make money in selling them

The house elections committee and

JOHNSON SAYS So
Makes AlIusiOn to Buying and
Selling Legislative Seat.

J. D. Miller was seated as the represen-
tative from Lincoln county Just before
the house adjourned late Thursday after
noon The resolution to seat him called
forth the first debate Of the session in
the house.
Speaker Protein Jones introduced tho
resolution to seating Miller during the
first session, and with it was fled the
disclaimer of D. E Books, the fusion
candidate for the place, who was elected
on the face Of the returns by a majority
Of four but whose election was contested
h Miller.
Mr.. Jones called up the resolution just
before adjournment Thursday. He read
section Of the statutes providing that
where a disclaimer to office was filed the
other candidate should be given the office.
re saio that Books had made up his mind
that he was not regularly elected and
therefore wanted to save the state the
expense of the contest
Representative Bucl1lin immediately
started a protest against the resolution.
re said the disclaimer provision applied
only TO ministerial offices and that ma
Jorlty of the people had chosen Mr. Books
70 represent them, suppOsing he would do
So and that 1t was not fair to them to seat
a man TO represent them whom majority
OF the people of the county did not want

ef, SAID ne had no interest in the matter,
but as long as Books made no allegation
III his disclaimer that Miller had received
majority of the votes, the disclaimer
was nothing more than a resignation
4 believe this case should go to the cleo
tons committee to be considered" de-
clared Mr. Hale Il would like to ask the
majority members how they would have
considered this case if the contestee had
died instead Of filing a disclaimer. The
cases are exactly parallel and I do not
believe the house should seat the contest
ant without the matter going to the cleo
tons committee, as do other contested
cases, and move as a substitute that the
resolution be referred to the committee on
elections"
For some reason or other Hale's sllbsti-
tute got lost sight Of Representative
Bennington spoke for the resolution and
the roll call showed that it passed by q
vote of II to %. It was not a strictly par
ty vote. however Broadbent. Smith and
Waggener, Democrats. voted ave with the
Republicans, while Dolley and Stubs, Re
publicans, voted with the Democrats
Johnson of Decatur explained his vote
by saying that while he had no personal
interest in a case where a member sold out
his seat if only the buyer and seller were
interested, in this case he thought the
people of Lincoln county were entitled to
some consideration and he therefor
voted no.
