A HUNDRED TEACHERS
May VISIT HAWAII
Big Excursion Planned
From Southern
California

That an excursion of about fifty or
a hundred school teachers from South.
EN- California is being planned Is the
latest bit of tourist news received by
the Promotion Committee. It was
contained in the following letter,
which has already been answered by
the Promotion Committee:
Dec. 4. 1907.
Hawaii Promotion Committee, Homo.
lulu. T. II.
Commemorative are considering a
proposition to bring to Honolulu this
coming summer, a party Of from fifty
to one hundred teachers, to make
about a three weeks excursion
through Hawaii. If you can give me
any suggestions with regard to the
route most desirable for this PROPOSE
ton, the length of time necessary and
the size and quality of hotel or board
ing house accommodation along the
line. should be much obliged. On
party being composed almost entirely
of teachers, we would of course re.
quire rates from steamship com
hanies, stage companies, hotel and
boarding house keepers, etc. that are
mt the very lowest figure. Our plan
is a personally conducted excursion
guaranteeing. for set sum per cap
tia, all expenses paid. If you can get
figures to show the total net cost pei
capita for this three weeks trip or II
you can suggest source from which
we can get such information com
plete, It would aid us very much wher
forming our party as we can not make
yny price to prospective eXcursionists
until we can know the entire cost oi
the proposition. Our party will con
aist Of not less than twenty-five, no;
more than one hundred. If figures
ran be gotten for this maximum and
his minimum number, the basis would
be safe to figure upon
Thanking YOU in advance for the
favor requested, am
Yours very truly,

the following to say in regard tt
the financial situation:
Business men and people gen.
orally who have had opportunity
to note the summary statement of
bank resources and capital and
conditions generally prepared
and given out yesterday by Aud

at the showing madei in the space
of twelve months. The fact that
the State banks show an increase
of S., 404, $40. 20, added to which
is. of course, the increase in
banks, over which the Auditors
Department has no jurisdiction,
is a decidedly healthy showing.
Coming, too, just at this time,
when there is so much gossip and
speculation concerning the gener-
al financial situation Of the coun-
it has a stimulating effect, and
shows that Mississippi is all
right and can stand whatever
strain may be imposed by the
general financial sstringency.

since the adjournment of the leg

things along the line Of his rail-
road for many years and the i'm

the people Of Alabama in trying
to enforce the law against the

Mr.. Smith can tolerate. In Ken
lucky Mr.. Smith dictates the
policies pursued towards the

dealing with his roads. Mr..
Smith went to Montgomery Mon

and will use his influence to have
the legislature ignore the COVER
