THE TRANSPORTS.

A strong movement Is under way at
st. Paul. where Jim HIS railroad in
huence is paramount. to induce the
Government to go out of the Transport
business and send it's army freight by
private lines. The movement begins
Just as Hits great steamers are pre-
their ports of call Discussing the
matter the St. Paul Globe points out
that "the average rate paid during
the calendar year 1903 for freight ship
ments from New York city to Manila
via the Suez canal was $l1.91 per ton
According to the same report. the cost
of shipping supplies from New York
to San Francisco varies from $45.3i to
s12. % per ton. with an average rate be-
tween these points for the past calen-
dar year of $3.50. When these rates
are compared with the commercial rate
now in existence and offered by the
Great Northern and its allied proper
ties from Chicago, St. Louis and other
interior points through to Manila OF
IS a ton, the difference between public
and private management will become
clear. While the rate of IS per ton
would be increased somewhat in prac-
tice by the ships option of measures
ment or weight, the comparison with
what the government has to pay by
other routes is suggestive"
These arguments have been pressed
before but the Government, having its
transports on hand and paid for has
seen no reason for laying them up or
selling them for song, with the pros
pect that private lines would then
raise the price. 1t is not to be expect
ed that the So rate to Manila will last
under any circumstances; it certainly
would go up as soon as transport COM
petition was out of the way. lnevi-
tably all big steamship corporations,
like the big railroad corporations, go
into a pool or at least into "a sehtie-
mems agreement" as to rates. Com
bination is always cheaper than COM
petition.
Honolulu, as a port Of call for the
transports, is disposed to stand by
them; though it's attitude might well
be neutral in case of the coming OIL
the Hill lines. But nobody is precisely
certain that the Hill boats will come,
while the transports are here. Under
these conditions the Chamber Of Com
merce and the Merchants Association
will do we'll to aid in keeping them
here, unless clearly of the opinion that
something better can be had in their
place

SUGAR IN SIAM.

While Siam will hardly enter into
future competition with Hawaii her
methods of sugar production are both
unique and interesting. In report
lust made Paul Nash, Consul General
at Bangkok, Siam. says that 1.-THE Gull
tivation OF sugar cane in siam ana the
manufacture of sugar are Industries
which are capable of being Increased
greatly with the Introduction OF better
methods in the production of the cane
and modern machinery for the manu-
facture of the sugar. The mode of
cultivation and mpnufacture which
prevails at present is as follows: cane
Is planted during the dry season (De-
cember to June) to make cuttings Tor
planting in the beginning of the
rainy season-about the END OF June.
These sections of cane are theh
planted Zone or two together), the
ground being kept well weeded and
thoroughly hoed three or four times
during growth The ripe cane is crush
ed and the juice boiled in an iron pot
with the addition of a small quantity
of lime, which precipitates the inn
purities and enables the clear liquid
to be drawn off through a pipe into
second pot where 1t is again boiled
until it becomes pale, yellow color.
This boiling operation is repeated sue
cessively in three more pots, when the
sirup has reached the consistency and
color of molasses. This molasses Is
then ladled into small earthen pots,
provided with apertures 0ike flower
pots) closed by plugs, and there al
lowed to cool over night. When cold
the pots are placed over other pots,
the plugs removed, and the molasses
allowed to drain Off leaving coarse
yellow sugar.
1.-THE process of refining consists in
pressing down in the pots the coarse
sugar thus produced, covering it with
prepared earth, and allowing 1t TO
stand for fortnight. Upon removing
the earth, certain part of the sugar
is found to be quite white. This layer
is then removed. exposing the yellow
sugar underneath, when the process Is
repeated until all the sugar is refined.
The molasses which drains into the
lower pots in the course of these oper-
ations is reboiled and subjected to the
same processes as before.
THE quantity of sugar manufactured
is far from being sufficient for home
consumption and while the imports of
refined sugar are increasing enormous
ly, the unrefined product shows
marked decrease. This can be ac-
counted for in either of two ways:
The Siamese are learning to prefer re-
n Of 10
unrefined variety is increasing greatly.
There are no statistics showing the
amount of homegrown cane, so it Is
not certain what causes this decrease;
although there is no doubt that there
is a certain increase in the home pro-
duction."

At intervals for two years back the
Advertiser has called attention to the
irregular manner in which the Govern
ment land business was being copduct-
ed on Hawaii. The point made was
against the homesteading process. "A
long time ago the Hilo Tribune said
that not three per cent of the home
steaders We're bona fide and the state
ment was not contradicted. The Boyd
regime was then in control of the land
department. 1t might pay for the Gov
ernor and Commissioner Pratt to make
thorough examination of the home
steads and find out how far the people
holding them have complied with the
legal requirements.

RUSSIAN EXPLANATIONS.

The Russians may have intended to
retreat beyond the Yalu but it is doubt
full that they meant to leave twenty
eight pieces of artillery in the enemy's
hands. Such a loss as that signifies a
rout. Possibly the Russians were
greatly outnumbered but that was the
lookout of the General who entrusted
twenty-eight quick-firing guns to an in
ferior force in the presence of the foe.
Either way one looks at the affair, re-
spect for Russa's military competence
Is not increased.
There is a singular naivete in the Rus
slams story of their strategic plans.
They would retreat into the mountains
and there, choosing positions of their
own, give battle with overwhelming
numbers. Forewarned is to be fore
armed; and the japanese are far too
cunning to be caught in any trap like
that. Brave as they are in battle they
are never rash in strategy. They have
been massing in Korea since February
and taking their time. They will con-
tinue to take it. And the theory still
holds good that they are not going to
spread themselves out in Manchuria now
that they have all they went 10 war for
the possession of Korea and the COM
mand of the sea.
