compelling melody, struck discord up
on Mr.. Farrelrs ear attuned to the
harmony of practical and feasible en-
terprises.
IN GRIP OF MONOPOLY.
In the first place, Mr.. Hill is not in
the sugar business except as a common
carrier. Furthermore, even If he were
inclined 10 include the promotion of
the sugar interests of Hawaii among
his merely transportation schemes he
must wait until the contracts of the
sugar planters with the sugar trust
should expire. Then again it would be
the poorest business policy imaginable
to attempt competition with a COM
bination that could operate a refinery
solely with the object of underselling
the competing concern in the territory
of the latter, leaving four other re-
fneries to supply all other territory at
the original trust price of sugar.
Thus it was finally settled by Mr.
Farrell that Honolulu shall not enjoy
the benefits of the Great Northern'S
competing traffic. AS the export trade
of Hawaii aside from it's sugar business
does not exceed a million dollars per
annum, any serious INJURY to the sugar
business would spell ruin for these ISL
ands. 1t is, perhaps. an imperative
strategic government policy to coin
tinue to dredge Pearl harbor and forth
fly the entrance to Honolulu roadstead;
it is of great national import, no doubt
that the flag of the republic should

blazoning it's crimson stripes against
the green field of Kauai's palm groves;
it is theoretically reasonable to believe
that no foreign power could deprive Us
of our Hawaiian possession even If that
power should covet the islands in hope
OF prospective or potential profit.
For these reasons, therefore, it is
probably a wise policy that induces US
to retain our hold on this lonely out
post in midocean; but in the sense that
the Hawaiian islands may ultimately
serve 10 strengthen our commercial en-
terprises this hope is vain. 1t is the
opinion of .well-informed residents of
the islands that coffee, the only staple
besides sugar that can be produced for
world consumption. is entirely out of
competition with Brazil and the Gen.
trail American fincas. Thus the sea
isles that we have erected into the
proud eminence of a free and indepen-
dent territory, of a free and indepen-
dent republic, resolve themselves into
mere summer resort for lazy tourists
a founging place. temporarily. for the
neople who dress for dinner and gossip
of their neighbors in the interval.
In the meantime the expense of main
this unavoidable acquisition
will be borne by the ever enduring and
always patient taxpayer of the. great
republic.

YOKOHAMA, April 2O.-The reasons
that have operated to induce James
Hill to sidetrack Honolulu in his trans
pacific schedule is one of the most en-
phatic commentaries upon the growing
decadence of Hawaiian commerce that
could be offered.
When ]. D. Farrell, vice-president Of
the Great Northern Steamship line.
reached Honolulu during the last of
March he utilized the few hours OF his
stay at that port by interviewing b.
f. Dillingham;, general manager OF the
Oahu railroad, and an authority on
commercial conditions in the islands.
The result of this interview confirmed
Mr.. Farrell in his preconceived notion
that it would be a waste of time TO
make Honolulu a port of call for the
steamers OF the Hill line. He learned
that aside from a huctuating tourist
traffic and Incidental commerce In GU
rios, tropical fruits and the by-prod-
ucts of the islands. there was moth
ing worth the expense and trouble OF
conveying away.
Mr.. Dillingham; made the best of a
bad argument in favor of increased
transportation facilities for Hawaiian
exports. but they We're not sufficient to
convince Mr.. Farrell and he finally in
formed Mr.. Dillingham; that until a
better demonstration of Hawaiian pro-
fit to the Great Northern could be
made the track of that company
steamships would follow the thirty
fourth parallel, plying directly as pos
sible over the great circle between
Seattle and Yokohama
Mr.. Farreu's decision in this matter
was based on a very simple PROPOSE
ton Hawaiian sugar interests, the on
" Immediately valuable interests IN
the islands, are in the clutch of the
sugar trust. With the shrewd foresight
that characterizes a trust-being a
necessary mental equipment of all
modern commercial enterprise, as it
was formerly primary requisite in

the best laid plans of the Morgans and
Kids of the good old buccaneering
days-this great American sugar trust
has cornered the output of Hawaiian
sugar plantations during the ensuing
three years. This output during 1902
amounting to $4,000 tons, and the
planters calculate that the product this
year will aggregate between 40O, 900 and
450, 900 tons. 1t has now dawned upon
the belated comprehension of these
planters that they have been
Squeezed" by the trust
WILLING TO SWITCH.
When it was bruited in Honolulu
that James Hill would operate a great
steamship service across the Pacific
ocean these planters came together and
resolved to ask the railroad man to
erect a refinery in Seattle to handle the
entire product of the Hawaiian islands.
This proposition was presented to Mr.
Farrell with somewhat elaborate sta
tistics concerning the consumption or
sugar in the United States It present.
ed that the sugar imports amounted 20
nearly 2,000,O00 tons, of which 1900. 600
was the product of foreign cane and
babout 100000 tons beet sugar. These
figures were segregated to show that
345000 tons; from Austria, 72. 600 tons:
from Belgium, $4,000 tons; from Cuba,
$50 900 tons: from Brazil 147. 900 tons:
from the British West Indies. 5000
tons. and from other sources about
half million tons. 1t was argued ~
these vassals of the American sugar
trust that if Mr.. Hill would come to
their rescue with a sugar refinery that
would insure to the Hawaiian planters
the market value of their product, he
could achieve personal profit by cutting
into the foreign import. They promised
that with this substantial encourage
ment the sugar plantations of Hawaii
would increase four-fold within the
next decade and eventually perhaps,
'expand into the greatest sugar-produc-
ing region Of the world. The Hawaiian
IS born to a vivid imagination. and the
poesy of his expression is unlicensed.
Three phases of this gliftering pre-
sentation were sufficient to give Mr..
Hills commemorative long nause in con-
sideration of the Hawaiian proposition

Smooth Farmer.
Into the Jersey City station of the
Pennsylvania railroad sauntered a.
portly man. He wore a chesty look
and carried an umbrella. Advancing
to one of the benches, he pulled a
chain and paddock from his pocket,
ran one end of the chain through the
open handle and made the umbrella
fast to the seat. Then he said to a
man sitting there: :. y
I've travelled all over this country
for five years, and I know a thing or
two
Then he walked away.
The man who sat there got up. He
had check suit and a smooth cheek.
He stepped up to the umbrella, pulled
a file from his pocket, rubbed it to
and fro across one of the links in the
chain for few. minutesa ,loQsening
the umbrella. Then he said to AM

Shocked the Diplomats.

An English magazine publishes
some amusing stories about American
diplomatists of the old school. At St.
Petersburg on one occasion the car
addressed to the American minister
the purely formal question, hope
you have good news from home" to
which came the startling answer:
Yes, thank your majesty. excellent
news. 1t is boy and weighs twelve
pounds" The diplomatic corps was
convulsed, but the car, who had just
been made a. happy father himself,
sent his "heartiest congratulations to
Mme Ministre" Thereupon the
American f1oored etiquette again by
inauiring after the health of the EN-.
press, who backed up this appeal to
mere human nature some days later
by personally thanking him lin par
