Fullerton, Cal, May 26, 1906.
Dear Sir: AT a meeting of the exec
utive committee held in Los Angeles
May 19, it was decided to go to Homo
lulu on the steamship Alameda, leav-
ing San Francisco Sept. 1, arriving
Honolulu Sept. Z. Returning, leave
Honolulu Sept. Is on steamship Sonoma,
arrive San Francisco Sept. a. This
uiIv fap Il Ter
The Oceanic Steamship Co., through
its General Passenger Agent, L. F.
Cockroft, has made the low rate of only
person. The regular rate is $135 This
is very reasonable, as it includes twelve
days board and first-class tickets (frst
cabin). When your secretary took the
matter of transportation up with Mr.
Cockroft he stated he would not ask the
editors to pay the remainder in display
advertising, believing that all would
write up the trip.
1t is the intention of the Hawaii Pro
motion Committee the Oceanic Steam
ship Co. and your executive committee
to make this the best trip in the history
of the association. No editorial asso
citation has ever visited Hawaii and as
the people over there are known to be
hospitable and royal entertainers a
grand trip is in store for all.
Program On Steamer.-As our party
will be on the steamship several days,
business sessions will be held and a long
program consisting of papers on adver-
Using, subscriptions, local and editorial
work, fields of the daily and weekly
newspaper, and many other subjects of
interest to the craft, will be prepared.
Discussions viii follow each paper or
talk as there win be ample time to go
into full details of newspaper work in
general. There will also be musical
and social program.
Don t Be Afraid of Seasickness.-We
are to have the best accommodations
on one of the best steamships on the
Pacific and it is a pleasant 2000mile
trip to Honolulu all the year round.
Take Your Wife.-Every member is
urged to take his wife along-otherwis
he may have to stand trial in a kanga-
roo court with j. p. Baumgartner as
Judge and w. C. Hogaboom as prose
cutting attorney, and they say there will
be no jury trial. Now, if you go, take
your wife-she will enjoy the trip just
as well as ''the old man. Don t for
get that If you are not married, you
will never have a better opportunity for
a honeymoon trip-get busy, and join
the party on the grandest trip ever
taken in the West
Number Is Limited.-The number is
limited to sixty persons; If s}ou are 60
ing, make application at once. You
need not send the 500 until about the
first of August. Do not make apphca-
ton for reservation of berth unless you
intend to go-you might keep some one
at home who is anxious to go.
The Volcano Trip-It will take five
days to make this trip and the regular
rate is $37. which includes steamship |
tickets, meals, berths, stage tickets and
meals at the hotel while there. Seere- |
tarv Wood writes us that he has been
assured of half rate or less. Those |
who do not care to make this trip may |
in Honolulu and spend the time
sight seeing. but all are urged to GO
Expenses-The trip TO Honolulu Will
not be expensive. $50 to Honolulu and
return: say about 81 for the volcano
trip. and $3.50 day American plan or
81 a day for room or 81 for room with
bath European plan, while IN the city
The best hotels have made these re-
duced rates.
The summer season :" III bS WV -
Sept. l, and the Republican and Demo
cratic conventions will have been held
and as we return home over six weeks
before the election it is hoped there
will be 90 people on this trip-the limit.
If anv member of the association
wishes to proceed on to Auckland or
Sidney, which would accord him stop
over privileges at Samoa and Auckland,
the Oceanic Steamship Co. will make
very low rate.
F. NJ. Jenifer, agent for the steamship
company at Los Angeles, will accom-
oanv the party to Honolulu. He has
been over there eight times and can tell
YOU how to avoid scasickness.
