SAN FRANCISCO. July 25.-James
Morgan, relief commissioner. sent to
this city from the Hawaiian islands,
and one of the most influential citi-
zens of Honolulu, says that San Fran
cisco and its people may rest assured
that this city will always have the
support of the islands, commercially
and otherwise.
THE people Of the islands would
rather be considered a suburb of San
Francisco than belong to any other
city Of the Pacific Coast" said Nor
gan. They look on San Francisco as
their mother city, and it is with a
sense of pride that they mention her
name. Not dollars worth of trade
the people of the islands have any say
in the matter. They are as loyal to
this city as any citizen here trying to
rebuild it, and the men of San Fran
cisco will find that the men of the is
lands are back of them in anything
that they may do and will support
them with their money and their moral
aid.
THE talk that any of the trade that
formerly came to this city through the
islands will be diverted to other chan
nels is foolish. For a time there might
be a temporary falling off, but as soon
as the commercial channels are re-
stored and the wheels of commerce are
once more oiled, all the trade will pour
into San Francisco from the islands as
before.
Il heard one of the richest men i'll
the islands say that he was going to
start out for San Francisco and spend
some of his money here, just to see
that he did his part in rebuilding the
city He said he had made his money
here and that this city had always
been his home, and always would be,
and now that she was in trouble ne
was not the man to stand back and
see her suffer. That is the spirit which
prevails in the islands San Francisco
will find as time goes on that she has
no firmer friend nor better wisher than1
the city of Honolulu.
Instead of diverting any trade from
San Francisco the disaster will, in all
probability, have the opposite effect.
The people of the islands realize that
they must all stand back of this city,
and the trade that has been going in
to other channels will come to this
city.
Most of the people in the islands
have affiliations here, and many of
them claim it as their home, and are
not going to forsake their alma mater
a. !, lsca -to,.
1 speak for the whole islands when
say there is nothing that the people
there will not do to aid San Francisco
and I can not make this statement too
strong"
James Morgan is at the Majestic, but
will return to Honolulu by the next
steamer.
