OCEANIC WON'T HELP.


Messrs. Oceanic Steamship Co., San
Francisco, Cal.
Gentlemen: Herewith we beg to en-
close copy of report on passenger SER
vice and transportation, which, after
due consideration, was adopted by the
Merchants Association of this city on
July 10th, and referred to the under
signed committee with instructions to
use every effort for the carrying out
of the several recommendations there
in made.
This report is handed you in order
that you may be fully apprised of the
objects sought to be obtained by the
Merchants Association and the reasons
therefor.
In presenting the matter for your
consideration it is the province of this
committee to invite the attention of
the Oceanic Steamship Company to the
charges exacted by it for passenger
service between Honolulu and San
Francisco, which are considered ex-
cessive as compared with other points
in the Pacific. These comparative
above mentioned, and are compiled
from the schedule of rates published
by your company.
! For some time past the efforts of the
Merchants Association, In conjunction
with other commercial bodies, have
been directed towards inducing an in
crease in travel to this Territory but
| this movement has not so far met with
anticipated success, in which. If re-
allied, the ocean transportation COM
! panies would undoubtedly enjoy the
| first and largest benefit.
The through service Is unsatisfacto-
ry to Honolulu travellers. principally
because of the uncertainty of these
vessels having any remaining accom-
modations on arrival here. and also
that the best accommodations are
naturally and invariably taken up b,
| through passengers.
1t Is believed that II either a larger
vessel than the Alameda" or an ad
ditional boat were put on the run. a
moderate rates of fare, the increased
travel would soon compensate for th
| reduction.
i The suggestion Is made that rat
of $50 for 4 single trip and $50 for tn
round trip. which Is about equivalen
to the rates charged by your compa
: ny to and from Tahiti. would accom-
plish the desired result.
{ The Oceanic Steamship Company
, first addressed in this matter becaus
l II has for many years run the onl
r local boat. and is. therefore. in tn
best position to consider the practice
|. bility of meeting these suggestion
. You are therefore courteously aske
4 to advise this committee at your earl
= convenience:
E First: II you are disposed to ASST
, the efforts OF the Merchants Associs
: ton to the extent of reducing ii
3 fares between Honolulu and Sa
!. Francisco. as above suggested. viz
n $50 for single fare. and $50 for n roun
i trip ticket?
h Second: Is It practicable to increai
q the efficiency of the service by eth,
It putting on a larger vessel than II
'e Alameda" or by providing an add
% tional passenger boat. In the evel
4, that we are in a position to supply r
N turn freight?
Third: Have you any suggestion
ut to make. either as to reduced far

The remainder (51,91) must be en-
ployed in various occupations as, pro-
fessional men, merchants. farmers,
mechanics, servants and draymen, in
competition with the white population.
They enjoy every privilege now Of an
! American citizen, except the voting
| power. SO per cent of them were i'm
ported ostensibly for plantation la
borers but it is evident that no effec-
tive measures have been considered
for the protection of interests other
than sugar interests.
| 1t Is submitted that the time Is not
far distant when this condition of
population will be recognized as
menace to every interest in the Terri
tory, and an effectual bar to our ef-
forts for further recognition in Con-
gress. 1t is submitted that it is time
for the sugar interests to take an
earnest and active part in the consid-
Grafton of measures jointly with the
rest of the community, to counteract
and improve these conditions.
The only available suggestion that
} can be offered now, is to put forth
every effort to encourage and promote
VI a CldSS VI pcopic Wbooc
, influence and numbers will reduce the
disproportion of population as it now
exists.
We understand that there is a steady
! departure of our Portuguese popula-
tion, and believe that every effort
: should be made to prevent this by Of
, fering them employment even at a
higher rate of wages. These people
: were brought here at an enormous ex-
, pense to the taxpayers, and a strong
! effort should be made to keep them
l here.
r We ask you to recognize that these
]. matters are presented. and your con-
Y sideration urged, from sense OF
: necessity only, and in consequence OF
y the dangerous conditions existing. II
: Is fully understood by this committee
: that the planting interests have also
5 grave problems before them for solu'
: tion, but 1t is also felt that some oi
e these problems are questions of com
= munity interest, in which the genera
e public have right to be consulted
8 and protected, in view Of which 4. II
n here suggested, that a more liberia

l. ers, and mutual understanding b,

n equitably considered as the only pre-
= ventative of serious misunderstood
: ings in the future. which can only b

| rupt dismissal of the subject, as one
that did not concern your interests.
Let us reason together: This, COM
mittee believes in common with many
ether representatives of the Mercan-
tile community, that future conditions
confront us which unless remedied, will
seriously jeopardize our agricultural
interests as well as those of a mer-
camille character.
The questions at issue are not those
that will determine alone the profit or
otherwise of certain steamship COM
pany, or q temporary advantage of
the merchants of this Territory, or the
question of higher or lower passenger
rates.
1t is, however, a pertinent question
as to who shall populate and control
tfese islands in the future, and the
argument sought to be made by this
committee is that the united cooper
alton OF the Anglo-Saxon elements win
be necessary to counteract the insinu-
citing. If peaceful aggression of the
Oriental. This Is a community inter-
est that none can afford to ignore or
underestimate, and it is respectfully
opB6cottu thdt tHe 6itdtci the iHNeSt-
ment, the greater the need of mutual
! protection.
1t Is perhaps not generally under
stood, that notwithst anding exclusion
laws, every child born on American
soil, has the privilege of citizenship.
Having this fact in view, the follow
ing statistics will be of interest.
There were about 5000 native horn
Asiatics in the Territory as shown by
| the census of 1900, which means that
/ about 5000 of these will have a voice
in our elections within a few years.
or total of 1929 pupils in the
! schools, there are now 4570 Orientals
| or "a per cent of the whole.
| In 1900 there were 1852 Japanese
children in the schools.
| In 1902 there were 1898 Japanese
children in the schools.
| In 1904 there were 1920 Japanese
children in the schools.
In 1900 there We're 1899 Chinese
children in the schools.
In 1902 there were 1885 Chinese
| children in the schools.
In 1904 there were 1850 Chinese
children in the schools.
In 1900 there were 1850 Caucasian
children in the schools
In 1902 there were 1889 Caucasian
children in the schools.
In 1904 there were 1903 Caucasian
children in the schools.
1 During this period Of four years the
Japanese increase was 116 per. cent.
During this period of four years the
Chinese increase was 2S per cent.
During the same period the Portu-
guese children increased IA per cent.
During the same period the increase
of American, British and German chill.
dren in the schools was 12 per cent.
These Orientals will be entitled to
vote in Territorial elections on attain
ing their maturity few years hence
and with such an electorate there will
be necessary a great deal of argument
to induce especial consideration for the
benefit of American citizens, whether
planter merchant, professional or me-
chanic.

WORLDS WHEAT.
Estimates on 1he Two Great Sources
of bread supply.

Eliminates on 4he Two Great Sources
of bread supply.
The worlds wheat crop Of 1909 is
estimated by the Hungarian ministry
Of agriculture at 3,1S900o,000 bushels
Of sixty pounds, against 100000
such bushels last year. Beerbohms
Evening Corn Trade List puts this
years wheat crop at 1928, 100000 bush
els of sixty pounds against 3,15G,400,-
600 such bushels in 1904. Both esti-
mates make the crop Of 1905 the larger,
the excess in its favor amounting, how
ever, to less than one fourth of / per
cent cclrdlns to the Hungarian es-
tirase, and 81 per cent according TO
me figures given by Beerbohm.
The Hungarian estimate for rye Is
1859. OOO,0 900 bushels Of fifty-six pounds
against 1851 100000 such bushels last
year. The decrease, which exceeds -
per cent. Is attributed chiefly TO the
large deficiency in the Russian crop Of
this grain. Unimportant as is the place
that rye occupies among the cereals
cultivated in the United States, it is
by no means unlmportant as part Of
the worlds bread supply, nor IS it
without effect on the price obtainable
for the exportable wheat surplus Of the
United States.
II the wheat and rye crops OF the
world, as estimated By the hungarian
ministry Of agriculture, he taken to-
gether and expressed ia centais Of 100
pounds, this years estimate for Z
two great bread grains combined vi
be found to be about ~ per cent below
the estimate for last year.
