FLANK CHANNEL
WITH LAWNS

A plan for identifying the entrance
to Honolulu harbor is proposed by q
local broker and banker in line with
the suggestions of Charles Mulford
Robinson, the park expert. The sug-
gestion is made that the naval reser-
walton which projects out TO the reef
be planted with grass and that the
new coral island being raised by har-
Dor dredging on the Eva side of the
channel be also planted in grass. With
both sides of the channel decked out in
lawns no prettier approach could be
presented to the eyes of travellers.
There is the problem of water for use
in keeping the lawns green. Artesian
wells have been suggested, but each
well would cost about $4,000, and some
other plan may be advanced

EYER THINK ABOUT / :!
Many a Resident Of Honolulu Will Tell
You.

| We are living in a very rapid age
Few of us bother our heads about
small things, and so many persons look
upon pain, ache or lameness in the
back as small thing. They wait for it
to pass off, giving no thought to the
cause. Remember; The kidneys are
the sewers of the system; they carry
off the impure matter, hut sewers
sometimes become c1ogged UP. So do
the kidneys. The kiuneys are located
near the small of the back. hence any
stoppage affects the back, This means
backache. lame back. weak back and
many other distressing symptoms.
There is lots more to tell on this SUBJ
ject, but we won't do it mere. for we
want to show you how to keep the kid
neys SO the back viii have no cause to
ache. You might not believe US, so
we will let one OF your own citizens
tell their experience:
W. F. Williams of this city, is
lighthouse keeper. and he has held
this position for the last 80 years. He
says: II was for a number of years,
one of that numerous army of people
who suffer with their backs. Mine

tent, so that I was glad when I heard
Of a remedy for it. Doan's Backache

at the HOLSTER Drug Co.'S store, and

lief, and / make this short narration of
my experience for the benfit of others

all backache arises from the kidneys.

SIR JOSEPH =
WARD HERE
New ZeaIand's Premier
Passes Through
Honolulu.

| Sir Joseph George Ward, the new
Premier of New Zealand. accompanied
by Lady Ward daughter and son, is a
| passenger on the Sierra homeward
bound to assume the duties of his Of
| flee. He is occupying especially pre-
| pared apartments on the Sierra and
the company is according him every
courtesy.
| Sir Joseph left New Zealand on Feb
ruary II to attend the Worlds Postal
| Congress at Rome. At that time he
occupied the manifold positions of Min
| lister of Railways, Colonial Secretary
Postmaster General, Minister of In
| dustries, Minister of Commerce and
| Minister of Public Health.
Since he left home the new Premier
has made an extended tour of Europe,
where he has spent much time in
looking into the systems of wireless
telegraphy. Sir Joseph was placed in
his new position by the unanimous vote
OF the Liberal party.
dispatch from Christchurch N T.,
dated July 8, indicates that the New
ZeaIanders are disturbed lest Sir Jo-
seph, while in the United States,
should make some agreement on a
trade reciprocity basis which they
claim will be likely to injure New Zea-
land manufacturers and hamper their
freedom
Sir Joseph says his party has been
in power for fifteen years, during
which time the country nas been con-
stantly improving. He makes the fol-
lowing statement about his country:
The progressive acts" are mainly
responsible for this Improvement. In
these acts are included the department
for advancing money to settlers. AL
ready more than $25, 300. 900 has been
lent and no losses have so far been
made. Then there is the ''old age pen
sion fund This has proven to be
great success, providing as it does for
men and women over IS years of age
who have become incapacitated from
work, by allowing them 10 shillings a
week.
One great feature of our Government
is what is called the system of arbi-
tration This meets the requirements
of the workers as well as the employers
and has been one of the most beneh-
cial acts ever known in our country.
Our population now is 100000 whites,
DO. 600 Maoris and 10000 island people.
We are the wealthiest people per-
capita in the world. We have on de-
post in the savings banks the sum of
$135, 100000
All the railroads are owned by the
State. Some the colonies built, and
others we acquired. We have also an
arbitration court which fixes the wages
for everything.
Then we have the power to take
landed estate at the taxed valuation.
This is largely helpful in the public
progress. The lands become crown
lands and are leased to settlers in
amounts of 100 acres up and not to-
exceed $40 acres. The leases are made
on the basis of the tenant paying at
the rate of 5 per cent. per annum on the
valuation of the land and the improve
ments thereon
We ship large amounts of kauri gum
and wool to America and I think these
should be duty free and could be ex-I
changed for canned salmon and paper,
which we get from you.

at oyster Bay.
