THE ISLANDS
EFFORTS OF THE PROMOTION
DISPARAGING REPORTS.

a late number Of the Farm ard Irri-
cation Age Of California contained a
sensational statement about Hawaii
which acts as a heavy blow to efforts
by the local promotion committee. The
article in question stated among other
things that times are so hard In the
islands that there Is a stampede TO get
out Of the country and that steamers
are so crowded that "a premium is Of
fered for berths by people who want TO
get away.
Secretary Boyd Of the Tourist Pro
motion committee this morning 'receiv-
ed a letter from a man who intended 10
come here, with a party Of two others
seeking homes and investments. He
writes that the article published in San
Francisco made them all change their
minds. and they have gone back East
after visiting California
1t is known that people who have
come here in the last six months have
been given the same sort Of "informa-
ton In one case a German came
here with his wife. having travelled di-
rectly all the way from Germany. on
landing here he was given such a start

vailing that he took passage back at

that its work Is seriously hurt by the
knockers, especially by such widely
circulated knocks as appeared in the

TO history the democratic party never

"Partisanship ceases at the waters

tional pride works its magic; there
the black flag OF party conflict is
transformed into the Respondent folds
OF the red, white and blue, typical Of
the loyalty and unity OF American

John Sharp Williams, the demo

and grounded In the faith OF true de-
mocracy but he Is also IN orator and
debater who Is ever ready to meet

tions now before congress. Golfers
for Feb. 10, has this TO say of him:
"The democratic leader ia The house

politician since Lincoln has had "
more felcitous method OF expressing
his oplnions2 Mr. Williams has n
good head, and his thoughts are sea-
soned with spicy humor of ~ strictly
American brand. Seriousness and
fun are delightfully."- allied. Arguing
against the resurrection OF the cur
rency question, In favor OF the theory
that issues are made by conditions
and environment, he observed: In
1896 the democratic party stood Tor
bimetallism, and 40 far as the ques-
tion OF ratio Ii concerned, believe
God, In His wisdom, fixed for silver
and gold the same law that rules with
respect to the price OF cotton, or corn,
n ballet dancer, or an opera singer
the law Of supply and demand He
added, with rare and charming frank
ness and good humor, that the moro
he read Of history the more he believed
the Confederate States were right IN
their Interpretation OF the constitution
which was no reason for Aghting the
civil war again, or brooding over u
difference which had become obsolete.
His closer arguments are admirable
for cogency and cl6arncss, but what
gives them their charm Is the infusion
of such illustrations rs he made the
other day In debate: The claim that
the republican party Is responsible for
the prosperity, which the gentleman
leaves to be Inferred, reminds me OF
an old Lincoln story. A woodpecker
sat on top of ~ tree, and he pecked and
peclted and pecked until u strong wind
came along and blew the tree and the
woodpeckcr TO the ground. That wood
Declker believes to this day he pecked

NOR and his anecdotes come In only
TO support the position which he has

perate methods we're resorted to by
both factions. Mr.. Cox Is good

She can no longer sit up, but lies upon
the ground alongside the fire. In the
wigwam are several elderly squaws
who watch beside the dying one and in
their simple way do all they can for
her. Last week one of them pawned
her blanket to obtain medicines to
alleviate the sufferings and make
pleasant the last hours of the stricken
girl. The springtime will show two
more graves in the woodland and the

A few days ago called gentle
mans attention to an Indian and his
squaw entering saloon. He looked
steadily in an opposite direction and
then said Sometimes it is better to
