cause they are certain to lead to more
serious ills.

SMALL HoMEsTEADERs FIRST.

President Roosevelt, in a letter ad-
dressed to Secretary Wilson of the De-
partment of Agriculture on the subject
Of fees for grazing horses and cattle in
the national forest reserves. upholds
the Secretary in the regulations formu-
lated by him, which will become ef-
fective January l, whereby certain
rules are laid down for the granting
of grazing permits The communica-
ton is the result of a protest sent to
the President by cattlemen from one
OF the Western States and is based on
a report by Secretary Wilson. to whom
the protest was referred. The letter of
the President to Secretary Wilson says
in part: "In other words. under the pol
icy you have adopted the forest re-
serves are to be used as among the
most potent influences in favor of the
actual home maker, of the man with a
few dozen or few score head of. cattle
which he has gathered by his own in
dustry and is himself caring for. This
is the kind OF men upon whom the
foundations of our citizenship rest. and
it is eminently proper to favor him in
every way"

the service is now to be enlarged and
the steamers will run on scheduled
time after the 1st Of next July. There
will be one sailing a week from New
York and one from New Orleans to
Coalzacoalcos, the terminus of the Te-
huantepec railroad on the Gulf of Mex
leo, and two a week from Salina Cruz,
the Pacific terminus, to San Francis
co and Honolulu. BY this route the
sea journey from New York to San
Francisco can be made in twenty five
days Subsidiary lines of small steam
ers will be established on both coasts
of Central America as far south as
Panama and Colon to bring coffee and
other cargo from the minor ports.
SAVING TIME AND DISTANCE.
The sailing distance from New York
to Colon is 1000 miles. and to Coalza-
coalcos it is 2OO4 miles. From Panama
to San Francisco is 5000 miles and
from Salina Cruz it is 2105 miles. From
Colon to Panama by railroad 1t is
forty-seven miles. From Coalzacoalcos
to Salina Cruz 1t is 1872 miles. There
fore the distance between New York
and San Francisco by Panama is 1907
miles, while by way of Tehuantepec 1t
Is 4271 a distance of 1888 miles in ia
for of the latter route.
From New Orleans to Coalzacoalcos
is S05 miles and to Colon 1887 miles,
thus making the distance 10 San
Francisco by one route 1854 miles and
by the other 3072 miles, a difference of
1922.
From Liverpool and other ports of
Europe to San Francisco, Honou'l
and the eastern ports of Asia the sail
ing distance via Tehuantepec is about
1900 miles shorter than by Panama
Another very important advant Lge
of the new road will be to fun sh a
tidewater outlet for the products OF
southern Mexico and the great plateau
lying south of the capital of that re-
public, which is famous for its fertil-
ity as well as for the great men it has
produced.
1t is now possible to go all the way
from New York to Coalzacoalcos by
rail via the City of Mexico and Vera

convince Congress of the practicable

ENAMORED OF
THE CHARMS OF
THESE ISLANDS

II went to Japan. and was dlap-
pointed; went to China and liked
Shanghai and Canton. but OF all the
places have visited west of Califor-
MIA, Hawaii has the finest climate and
the most attraction for me"
G. A. Parkyns. the Southern Pacinc's
right-hand man at Los Angeles, who
has been on leave of absence for the
past six months on account OF his
health. makes the above statement.
Mr.. Parkyns returned yesterday on
the Kinau from a visit to the volcano
of Kilauea and registered at the Young
Hotel. IL he was charmed with Homo
lulu and it's scenery, he is even more
enthusiastic about what he saw on the
Island of Hawaii.
IT first saw the pit of Halemaumau
at night. We were lucky that night
for while We watched, a wind took the
smoke away and there stood out two
glowing forks of lava away down deer
In the pit, as fiery as one would want
to see them. Then the smoke would
cover 1t up and later 1t would b'
shifted again. 1t was an absorbing
sight.
"Then l have never seen such forests
as you encounter around the edge OF
the crater. Those fern forests, tree
moulds, koa forests and the various
smaller craters in the vicinity of the
Volcano House are worth any travel
er's time 1 wouldn't have missed Il
for worlds.
1.-THE Volcano House is a really at
tractive place, and Mr.. Lycurgus, whJ
runs it. is a prince of hosts.
Then that island has charms o.
color which one rarely finds elsewhere
The sugar plantations, as one skirts
the coast, are remarkable as scenic
attractions. At least they were so t
me.
But let me tell You one thing

are too many knockers. They discour.

cano. Why, man, that volcano is on
of the greatest attractions You have
1t is the one, big attraction, anC
should have worldwide publicity. 1

Hilo and up to the volcano. Its hog

THE TEHUAN[EPEC ROUTE
is AR0US|NG ATTENTION

The Tehuantepec Isthmus railway is
certain to play an important part in
the commercial development of Ha-
wall, if all data received in Honolulu
Is to be credited. A recent dispatch
says that the two new steamers for
the American Hawaiian S. S. Co. are
being built to take charge of some of
the sugar which is to be shipped from
Hawaii to the railway terminus on the
Pacific side of the isthmus. Each of
these vessels will be bigger than the
Alaskan which arrived in port last
week. They will be ready for their
maiden trips in few months.
Secretary H. p. Wood of the Pro-
motion Committee is receiving consid-
cradle data concerning the new 18TH
milan railway, which will be ready for
use in July. William E. Curtis de-
scribes the new venture as follows:
A new steamship connection be-
tween New York, New Orleans, San
Francisco and the Hawaiian Islands
Is about to be established in connec-
ton with the Tehuantepec railroad,
and on the LIST of next July a fleet of
nine steamers is to be employed car
rying freight, and ultimately passen-
gers by way of the Mexican isthmus.
The fleet and the terminal facilities
for handling the business represent an
investment of $10,000000 of American
money. The president of the company
is George S. Dearborn of New York
the vice president is George d. Lap
ham, formerly of the leather trust, and
the general manager is Capt. w. D.
Burnham, who sailed around the Horn
for many a year in command of clip
per ships of the old Flint Line.
The present company is an out
growth of that old service. an ANAL
gamation of two ancient sailing fleets
belonging to the Flint and Dearborn
families, who used to build their ships
in Maine and sail them between New
York, San Francisco and Liverpool
They would take on cargoes of general
merchandise at New York, carry them
to San Francisco, Portland or Puget
Sound, and there reload with grain for
Liverpool or with lumber and other
stores for Honolulu. From Liverpool
they would bring back general mer-
chandise and from Hawaii raw sugar
In course of time these two companies
| consolidated, and in 1899 abandoned
their sailing ships and adopted steam
ers. The new corporation was called
the American Hawaiian STEAMSHIP
Company, and has had in service -four
steamers of $500 tons and two of 5000
tons 1t has recently constructed three
additional steamers of 1880 tons each
and is now building two more OF still
larger capacity-12,500 tons-at the
Union Iron Works at San Francisco
1t is the intention of the company tc
order four more from shipbuilders OF
the Atlantic coast, which will make
fleet of fifteen OF the highest type
of freight steamers, making twelve
knots an hour. The principal purpose
OF these ships has been to bring the
raw sugar of the Hawaiian plantations
to the refineries of New York and
Philadelphia. They have been doing
that for half a century or more. but

The late p. r. Barnum, in his de-
Ginning years. was advised by his ply
slcians to abstain from all spirituous
liquors. He became a crank upon the
subject OF total abstinence. lectur-
ing to many audiences upon this
subject. A woman who heard him lee
ture afterward met him one day at his
home In Bridgeport. "why do you
preach total abstinence to humanity"
she asked, when it is well known that
you allow your trainers to feed Jumbo
four gallons of whisky a day and ten
pounds OF tobacco?" Never thought
of that" said Mr.. Barnum, and he al
most ran to the telephone, calling up
the winter quarters of the show, and
in his squeaky voice gave the order:
Give Jumbo no more tobacco or
whisky" Next day he got the follow
ing message from the trainer: please
build a padded cell for Jumbo, and send
down at once five thousand grains of
bromide. He's got d. rs on account
of =. T., and has got the delusion that
he is performing in Kentucky"

over there.
when was IN Los Angeles and
had TO talk TO people a good deal and
tell them where TO go. l knew nothing
whatever about the islands or the vol
cano except what had read. Well
you can't be sincere enough In talking
from book. l am glad that l have
come here and seen the thing for my
self Seems believin' Now I'll know
just what TO tell people when l re-
turn to the Coast and I'll tell them NO
to miss the volcano trip. We had dv.
lightful run back from Hilo. The
water was smooth and there was
everything to make a comfortable trip,
Il believe there will be a great tourist
travel heading this way In the future.
People are just beginning to know
about the islands. Your Promotion
Committee Is doing good work, and you
have got just the right man at the
helm-Secretary II. =. Wood. There is
to be great tourist invasion of South
ern California this year and a good
portion of it Is going to get down tC
the Hawaiian Islands.
People are not coming here so much
don't believe they are looking for that
because since annexation l believe they
have come to the knowledge that tn
place is American and is being devel
oped along American lines.
But they will come down here t
try the climate That is what the rici
travelling class is doing in all part!
of the woodworking for a good eli
mate to spend a winter, spring, sum
mer or fall in. They can find just th'
right climate in Honolulu and the is
lands in general. The air UP at TIN
volcano is fine and braclng.
"As to steamer fares, l don't believ,
1t will be worth while to reduce them
The people who are travelling and thu
people you want down here are no
the ones who would have to turn
! IS or a $40 or $40 piece over to con
slider whether they should or SHOULD
not spend It. People who make TIN
trip to the Hawaiian Islands have go
to have money. They have got to liv'
in the hotels here as they do else
where, and to do all this they mus
have money. Whether the fare is $13
or 800 is not a matter of much diff
ference to them"

DUAL POLICE
BQTHERAT|ON

HILO. January 12.-At last weeks
meeting of the Board OF Supervisors
of the County of Hawaii, a lengthy
opinion from Deputy County Attorney
Noa W. Aluli was read, on the ques-
ton of the responsibility of the county
for the pay of the men appointed to the
police force by the board, in view OF
the decision of the Supreme Court that
the board did not have the power OF
such appointment. 1t will be remem-
bered that the board appointed one set
of policemen, and Sheriff Keolanui an
other set
Aluli's conclusion was as follows:
IT am of the opinion that a suit can
not be successfully maintained against
the county, under the circumstances, by
the set of police officers appointed by
the Board of Supervisors, because they
are not legal claims, but in order that
the matter may be finally settled l as
sure you that this office will give all
honorable and reasonable assistance
within its power to have the matter
presented in a friendly way to the
courts"
