cause such independent element would
wrench political power and control out
of their hands. Economically, because
they need government lands for the

backs which make progress here very
slow In the first case the very high
steamer charges make it almost i'm
possible to grow anything prohtably,
although things grow here certainly as
luxuriantly and abundantIy as any
where else; second by the commissions
and profits which the Honolulu mid
dleman insists on making. No one in
Honolulu is satisfied with profit of
20 per cent. and they do not work at
less than 100 to 200 per cent. For in
stance. onions are never bought for
less than to 3 cents per pound. but
the most 1 was offered was / 1-2 TO
cents per pound. I had the same ex-
perience with Lima beans, corn, etc.
and 1 have therefore almost given up
raising anything except for my own
use.
If the United States Government
would assist an interisland steamer line
and compel it to charge reasonable
freight rates this would be a great step
in the right direction. It would also
be necessary to compel the vessels of
such a line to arrive and depart at
stated hours, not as now, where people
are compelled to wait for the steamer
from twelve to twenty-four hours, the
less of time and in consequence mon
ey. preventing farmers here from send
ing things to Honolulu, because all the
profits they could make would be east
" lost through such tremendous loss
of their time.
Another thing which would greatly

help to develop this district and the
country generally is the starting Of an
experiment station, not in Honolulu
however, but right here in Kona. An
experiment station in Honolulu is all
flght as far as sugar cane and some
other tropical products are concerned.
but the climate and surroundings of
Honolulu are not very well adapted for
experiments with any such things as I
nave mentioned in the foregoing list.
The small farmer, however, will be
compelled to raise just such things as
/ nave mentioned in this report in or
der to make a living and to develop the
country. If farmers could be told au-
thoritatively not only what they could
grow, but at what season and at what
expense, 1 should say it would not be
so. very hard to encourage desirable
people to immigrate to Hawaii and try
their luck here.
| hope that the little information
which 1 am able to give may be what
your excellency expected and may
prove of some use to someone here and
abroad. With expressions of my high
est esteem, I remain. Mr. Governor,
very respectfully,

Stop
Frieud!

Have you stopped to conside
what gem you have in the ideal
Policy of the Pacific, when can
you lind such Policy?
Who has il for sal.?
What company can compete it
for one moment?
Did you ever think that one
might need insurance Money more
in life than death?
How many thousands lose theic
insurance through inability pay
premium caused by accident or
sickness?
How can you buy medicine and
food and pay doctor bills and in
surance premiums? While sick or
laid up by accident.
How can you provide for your
family or your self when YOU be-
come disabled 10y accident or i'll
ness?
The Ideal Policy answers all
these questions, solves all these
problems.
1t pays the face value to the ia
mily, in case of death. 1t furnish
eS money to pay the premiums on
his policy while he is hurt or sick
and this insures his policy to be
paid 10 his family. should he die
of accident or illness
1t pays him his whole insurance
in ten equal installment, should
he from accident or sicknes be to-
tally disabled or lose his hands or
his feet or his eJesight
And remember there is no extra
charge for the disability contract
the Pacific has the same legal re-
serve that all other old line COM
panies have $40, 100000. Special
fund to made good every clause in
their Poiices, few good men can
