GALLANT COLONIAL
GETS AFTER KELLY
Honolulu, January 2sth. 1907.

Honolulu, January 18th, 1907.
Editor Advertiser: I have read with
Mr.. Kelly, who, under the heading of
considerable interest the remarks of
Mr. Kelly tells of His Travels" Up. c.
Advertiser, Jan. 25th), relates some of
his experiences in the Antipodes-
Having recently returned from the
Colonies after spending some months
there, and having previously lived
there for some eighteen years, I feel
that I know a little about the bloom
in Colonial"
While perhaps some of Mr.. Kelly's
remarks may be true. l challenge his
statement that the bank in Melbourne
at New Years was closed for week
TO balances the accounts" 1t is so alb
surd that it hardly needs noticing.
l know that when I was in Sydney
/ sent several suits of clothes to the
tailor to be pressed, receiving the same
back within thirty-six hours, which,
think. it not bad, seeing how slow the
Colonials are generally credited with
being AS TO getting suit of clothes
pressed in a day in Honolulu, that IS
the exception, not the rule.
Mr.. Kelly says that in Auckland he
could not get a pair of rubber heels
put on in less than three days. Well
and good. In Honolulu just now. you
cannot get a pair of shoes mended In
any way, not even a small patch, in
less than three weeks. Only the other
day asked one of the Fort street shoe
stores to put a small patch on for me,
and they said that it could not be
done in less than three weeks, owing
to the rush of work. But then, prob
ably the Cclonials never have rush
of work.
No, give the Colonial a chance. He
| is always glad to welcome what he
calls his american cousins" and while
! he may be slow, as one would judge
| from Mr.. Kelly's remarks, still, wher-
ever he goes, he generally manages to
| get along just about as well as the
| next one. On almost every festive oc-
casion in the Colonies one will find the
| Stars and Stripes nearly as much in
| evidence as the Union Jack; the people
| are always glad to meet Americans and
| TO make them feel as much at home as
| possible, and the Colonials look upon
| the United States as their staunchest
ally. While there may be no harm in
/ the article above referred to, still, it
is. to me- rather an injustice on the
Colonial. seeing his friendly feelings
| towards Uncle sam.
might add that Mr. Kelly's remarks
in regard to horse-racing and sports,
as to Melbourne being a beautiful city
and Sydney Harbor being the most
beautiful harbor in the world, are quite
true in every way. but this is nothing
more than what is generally acknowI-
/ edged by every visitor to the Colonies.
Thanking you for your valuable
space, / remain.
