AFTER THE SHOUTING.

The making of peace is greeted with
worldwide tunult of grateful accla-
nation, save, perhaps, for a certain
limited lamentation among some Jap
anese. 1t is fitting that it should be
so. If ever the world had occasion for
rejoicing it has now. Yet we must
remember, as we shall quickly realize,
that "the tumult and the shouting
dies" This joyous enthusiasm will
subside, and in some quarters be fol-
lowed probably by a reaction, while in
all quarters it will give place to calm
consideration of the net results of the
war and of the peacemaking. With
out assuming extraordinary gifts of
prescience. it is not difficult even now
to forecast in some degree that judg-
ment of the future. There need be no
hesitation in expecting the universal
credit which the president has won
to remain undiminished and unin1-
paired. No chief of state has more
nobly done a nobler work than he. and
the unparalleled outburst of tributes
to him, from rulers and peoples. is a
vocal prelude to the measured and en-
during judgment of history. Whatever
may result from the peacemaking, the
peacemaker will be held In honor

HOW TO WIN.

In its fight against the Independent
retineries in Kansas the Standard can
be given hard run for its money If
the buying public will stand pat and
throw their trade to the smaller con-
Germs, regardless of the temporary
market. Experience has taught all
that in these fights for supremacy the
low prices only prevail until the COM
petitor is forced into bankruptcy.
When that is accomplished the ad-
vance is sufficiently great to conteract
all losses sustained within a very short
while, and before we hardly realize 1t
we are again in the hands of the mon
ster and remain in a helpless condition
until relief comes from other sources;
then we are freed until the enemy can
be crushed. If the. people of Kansas
will stand by the Independent reflneries
and patronize them to the exclusion of
the trusts, the day will not be far dis
tant when Rockefeller and his crowd
will have to act decently. if nothing

TOO MUCH POLITICS
advertiser Photo

Hawaiian sugar planters are now in
been for years. said c. Hedemann, a
prominent citizen of Honolulu. last night
at the Kenyon. For long period they
have been putting all their money in
improved machinery and charging their
land holdings. The result is that the
Hawaiian Islands are now the acknowl-
edged largest and best sugar producers
of the world.
However, the labor question has not
yet been satisfactorily settled. After
annexation, we, of course, came under
the Chinese exclusion law. This caused
an influx of Japanese labor, but the
Japs in nearly every case simply used
the islands as a stepping stone, and
left for the Coast as soon as they saved
up enough money. Efforts are being
made by the planters to provide at
tractive homesteads for their laborers,
and We hope this plan will induce them
to remain.
''One of our mills has a capacity of
handling $500 tons of sugar cane a day.
This is the largest plant in the world.
There is entirely too much politics on
the islands. The population is about
$50, 900, of which about 10000 are white
people, and the result is a constant
friction between the natives, who be-
lieve in home or native rule, and the
whites, who have different views.-Salt

CENTERS ON HAWAII

the thickness of the earth's crust, rem
dering fresh transverse fractures prob
able at such distances. followed by en-
larged openings at the points of inter
section.
But to leave hypothesis for. actual
facts: In the case of the easterly To-
cality, we find on the latest map OF
Hawaii that the source of the Mana
vale lava flood of 1910 is % miles east
by north from Kilauea. which is itself
q miles east by south from the great
crater of Mokuaweoweo on Mauna
Loa. That lava stream burst forth in
great bulk and ran swiftly into the
sea at Nanawale, eight miles north
east. 1t is true that lava appeared
at that time in several crater pits on
. the line between Kilauea and the
eruption, and that the level of the
lava lake in Kilauea was affected. But
he enormous copiousness and sudden
ness of the flow at the center of ennis
sion indicated direct communication
with the interior magma as an indie
pendent volcano, although originally
an offshoot of Kilauea.
This view seems to be confirmed by
the obvious fact of a long series of
|
same vicinity, by means of which must
have been created the immense tracts
of lava country extending from 20
miles north northwest at Hilo, to the
coast eight miles south, and eastward
ten miles. II seems evident that the
southeast Size . Hilo Bay was created
by lava floods from this source, really

though immensely productive of new
areas of land.
Let us now consider the volcanic ac-
tivity of the Kahuku region in South
western Kau. This is evidently older,
and has been much more violent than
that in Eastern Puma. The vast dome
of Mauna Loa is immensely elongated
to the south southwest. At a little
more than 20 miles from Mokuaweoweo,
at a point southwest by south. is the
Peak of Keokeo. It's altitude is about
500 feet. Tt forms a most prominent
shoulder to the great mountain, which
it hides from the southwest coast of
the island. the slope from the summit
of keokeo being very gentle, evidence
ing immense lava emissions at that
point, 20 miles from the summit. Vast
floods of lava have also poured into the
sea from the same vicinity. The two

rapid, one in 1868, the second in 1887.
The later one filed out nearly half a

of the Keokeo summit, and q and %

SLED Of A
CH|EFESS

On the 9th of last month. n. K.
Pukui, travelling agent of the Hawaiian
Realty and Maturity Co., while on
tour of the Island of Hawaii, found the
above illustrated sled in a cave at
Hookena, Hawaii
1t is said that the oldest kamaainas
of Hookena have heard from their par
ents and grandparents that sometime in
the reign of King Keawenuiaumi, about
two hundred and fifty or three hundred
years ago, high chiefess named Kanea-
muna was then living at Hookena. Her
principal amusement was hee holua
(coasting on sled) and hee nalu (surf-
ing).
She had her people make a sliding
ground for her on hill just back of the
little village of Hookena, and ordered
sled, or land toboggan, called a papa
holua, as well as a surfing board, or a
papa hee nalu. When the slide was fin
ished she passed many pleasant hours
sliding down the steep hill. This slide
was composed of smooth stones covered
| with rushes. After her death her sled
and surf board disappeared, and the
secret of their hiding-place was never
revealed.
1t is believed the sled and board
found in the cave belonged to the High
| Chiefess. They are made of the wood
of the bread-fruit tree and at the pres
ent time are in very good condition.
The cocoanut fiber ropes are still at
tached to the sled.
