| Marine MaChlnists Demand That Other
! Trades support Them--They've Been
Ont for Three NIOnths-B0sses Not
Expected TO Yield TO the Threat.
Another general strike of all the trades
in the shipbuilding yards is scheduled for
the end of this week 1t Is TO be called In
support OF the marine machinists. who are
| on strike against the members Of the New
York Metal Trades Association for q mini
mum wage rate of 50 a day.
A committee of all the trades represented
in the shipyards will go to the offices Of the
Metal Trades Association and make final
attempt TO induce the employers to grant
the demands. 1t is not believed that the
Metal Trades Association will yield.
The proposed strike would bring out about
20, 600 men in and around New York, inohld-
ing those in the yards in Staten Island,
Jersey City, Hoboken and Elizabethport
1t will involve boilermakers, blacksmiths
and their helpers, patternmakers. "copper"
| smiths, painters, carpenters and other
trades
AS the machinists went on strike in SYM
patty with the boermakers in thegTown-
send-Downey shipyard on Shooter Island
year ago, they say that they now have a
| claim on the other trades.
The members of the Metal Trades Asso-
citation have been hiring non-union men,
but admit that, although the strike has
lasted three months. they have not been
able to get anything like full force OF
marine machinists.
James Wilson, delegate of the Inter-
national Association of Machinists, brought
up the question of a sympathetic strike
at Yesterdays meeting of the Central Fed
Grated Union, and asked that the other
trades, which are all represented In the
c. f. T., be directed to cooperate In the
fight. George H. Warner, Wilson's CO.
delegate, made bitter speech to the same
effect. The request of the machinists
was granted.
The delegates representing the unions
| In the shipyards will all meet on Wednesday
| and organize IA Il committee to call on
| the Metal Trades Association and ask
that the demands of the machinists be
granted This they do not believe will be
effective.

The question of expelling organizations
that belong to the Knights Of Labor from
the Central Federated Union started a
furious discussion at the meeting OF the
c. F. U. yesterday. For some time dele
gates of the unions belonging to the Ameri-

up the question rs to the right Of Knights
since the latter body had obtained charter
from the federation.
At the suggestion of Delegate Brown OF
Cigarmakers' Union 144, who said that in
the present disturbed state Of industry in
New York it would be bad time to start
a new fight, the question was left yesterd ay
to the decision OF the convention Of the

CABLE EDITION
Is COMMENDED

Through the courtesy of Miss Mac
donald, of this city, whose father was
missionary to the Sandwich Islands,
and whose early life spent in that de-
lightful group, the Journal is in receipt
of copy of the Honolulu Commercial
Advertiser of Saturday, January 8,
This was the day following the land
ing of the cable which connected Homo
lulu with San Francisco, and it was a
day of such Importance that the Adver-
tiser issued a splendid extra cable
edition. of no less than "a pages.
The issue is devoted not only to this
particular cable and to the memorable
Festivities with which its landing in
Honolulu was celebrated, but to ocean
cables in general, from the laying of the
Cyrus w. Field, down to the successful
laying of the cable which connects the
territory of Hawaii with the United
States.
The issue looks like an illustrated
congressional directory, as it contains
portraits of President Roosevelt, Secre-
tary Moody, Senator Morgan. Speaker
Henderson, Congressman Sulzer, Sena-
ter Hoar and a score, more or less, of
other members of congress and distin-
guished Americans.
1t contains full descriptions, with
illustrations of the cable, the vessel
that paid it out, the landing stations,
the ocean cable alphabet, and many
other highly interesting particulars.
1t also takes up the subject of wireless
telegraphy between the islands and
states that though the wireless system
has hitherto been failure it is now
newly equipped and is commercially
successful.
1t also contains very interesting ac-
which starts from England, spans the
sea, crosses by telegraph lines to the
west coast of Ireland, whence a cable
crosses the Atlantic to Nova Scotia.
Land lines then carry it to Vancouver,
where begins a cable which runs across
the Pacific to Tanning Island-the long
est single span of cable in the world
thence to Fiji, thence to Norfolk Island.
thence to New Zealand, and finally to
Australia.
Certainly the cable edition" of the
Honolulu Commercial Advertiser is an
issue worthy of the zeal and enterprise
bestowed upon it, and it gives evidence
of the genuine American spirit and the
possibilities of the Hawaiian territory

MONEY IN
VANILLA
John KidweII Made a
Fine Profit on
Beans.

John Kidwell, the veteran agricultur-
list talked instructively yesterday about
small farming. Speaking of vanilla
beans, he said:
IT tried them in a small way, many
years ago on a tract "a by 40 situated on
Beretania street. I got cuttings from
Mexico and planted them around the
fence. Inside of three years the vines
matured and 1 transferred the pollen to
the productive flowers, using for the
purpose a scissors point. This was the
hardest work in the venture, but it paid
and out of the little garden 1 got $50
pounds of fine vanilla beans. All but
ABOUT so pounds I sent away as sam
pies. Those which went to London
brought back a complimentary letter in
which,I was asked to send 500 pounds
with which to try the market. A New
York house wrote that the beans were
as good as those from Tahiti, which
didn't please me, because 1 thought
them better. The crop had left 1 sold

pound, realizing $500 on the deal. Sew

Spalding, wanted to back me on large
scale, but 1 was getting interested in
pineapples and let the matter drop.
But 1 showed what could be done. If

three months when the flowers are

be money in it,
The best grades of vanilla beans
have sold in London for as much as $50
per pound and were lately quoted at
So Mr.. Kidweu thinks the labor on
a vanilla farm would be suitable for
Japanese women, and says that about
to the acre might be re-
quired for three months in the year.

Notes From the Maui News.

The Maui News of February II has
the following:
Attorney P. N. Kahokuoluna publicly
stated in Wailuku one day this week
that Senators H. p. Baldwin and Z. H.
Dickey are in favor of Lahaiua as the
county seat for Maui. On Thursday
morning the News interviewed Senator
Baldwin concerning tie statement, and
he authorized the News to state that it
is not true and that he is for Wailulku
as the county seat, first, last and all
the time.
Mr.. w. o. Aiken of Paia, who was
present at the interview, stated that il
was not true as to Senator Dickey,
whom he knew by direct conmunica-
ton TO be strongly in favor of WaiIuIu
as the county sea-.
1t is much TO be hoped that the leg
islature will appropriate funds to COM
plete the road between Huelo and Ma
hiku, thus giving an outlet to the resi-
dents on the east end of The island. If
this were done and thu farming land on
East Maui thrown open to settlers, ore
of the most prosrafa.s farming oelts
on the Island would be developed.

'MAUPS COUNTY SEAT
THE BURNING QUESTION
Citizens There Ask "ShouId the MoIokai Settle
ment Be included? baldwin Opposed to
County School Board Control.

MAUI, February 1.-THE excitement
of the week concerned the pros and
cons OF the county seat question. Is
Il to be Wailuku or Lahaina seems to
be the burning topic of the moment.
The discussion has waxed exceedingly
warm in wailuku town during the past
week. Attorneys John Richardson and
Peter Noa Of Lahaina have been trying
to persuade the wailukans Of the su-
perior qualifications OF Lahaina. OF
course the large majority of WaiIuku
citizens are In favor Of their own town
for the county capital, but there are a
few prominent people in favor Of La
haina, among whom is mentioned Cir
cult Judge ]. w. Kalua.
And then the Lahaina agitators claim
that Hon. w. p. Haia and the majority
Of the citizens of Hama are in favor of
Lahaina. They also claim that they
have won over two-thirds OF the legis-
lators to their view of the question.
They probably much over-estimate
their strength. If put to the vote of
the people the result would be a very
close one, with the three small districts
of Lahaina, Molokai and Hama arrayed
against the two large districts of Wal
Iuku and Makawao. 1t would be
shame If by any chance in the uncer-
tain game of politics the county seat
should be placed elsewhere than in
Waikiki, the principal town of Maui.
situated as it is in the geographical
center of the island.
During the week meetings for the
purpose of agitating the question have
been held in waihee and Waikapu.
The meeting that was to have been
neld last night in wailuku court house
was postponed until Monday evening
of next week.
On Monday, February 9, the execu-
tive committee of the district committee
chosen by the Republicans of Maui and
Molokai met at Kahului custom house
and Endorsed the county bill as it
stands, with the county seat at Wailu-
ku as is stated in the bill.
The sentiment of this committee was
opposed to placing the
schools under county boards. Messrs.
H. P. Baldwin and w. o. Aiken made
speeches to that effect. During the
curious question, suggested
by the Keanae Republicans, cropped
up. Should the Molokai settlement be
included in the County of Maui?"
Should the 225 or $50 voters of the set
tiement have the privilege of voting
upon, and in some cases deciding, ques-
tions of great local Importance? Not
to them, the citizens of Kalaupapa and
Kalawao, for they are not only com
