OUR GROWING BUSINESS.

Not long since the Bulletin called
attention to the steady increase in
the shipments of merchandise from
mainland ports to this Territory. The
period covered was the nine months
ending March 31st last Sound ports
lad made distinct gains in trade with
Hawaii and the shipments from San
Francisco also increased.
This record has continued in a
manner highly satisfactory to San
Francisco and is evidence of the
growth of business in these islands.
The figures of the San Francisco GUS
tom house show that the shipments
of merchandise from San Francisco
10 the Hawaiian Islands in May, 1907
were valued at $S35,852 In May,
1906, the merchandise exports to the
Territory were valued at SITS, sos.
During the five months ending May
81, 1907 the exports from San Fran
cisco amounted to S4,745, OBS,
against $4,181,074 for the correspon-
ding period in 1906, showing a COM
paratiye gain of $5G3,964. for this
year
If our business men will take hold
of the transportation question in the
style it's Importance demands a more
notable increase can be secured in
the tourist business of these islands
through the pot of San Francisco
There should be more than a million
dollars a month entering the port Of
Honolulu in tourist business alone.
Our business men can get it, if
they will go after it, and start now,
when effective work can be done for
the winter season.
They must be assured of the
steamship accommodation.

ON WALKER'S TRAIL

Chief Of Detectives Taylor received
by the Asia's mail letter from the
PinkertOn detective agency asking for
further information regarding w. i.
Walker, the defaulter, who skipped
from Connecticut some months ago
with 100000 belonging to the New
Britain Savings Bank.
When the Doric was last in port, re-
turning from the Orient, Purser Thorn
reported that man who answered the
description OF Walker had been a pas
senger on board the Doric from one
Chinese port to another. This infor-
nation was sent by Taylor to the
Pinkertons The letter he received to-
nay asked him to interview Thorn so
as to ascertain at which port the man,
who is supposed to have been Walker
left the vessel, and also to get good
description of him as well as the name
under which he Travelled. Taylor ac-
cordlngly called on Thorn and got the
information, which he will forward to
the PinkertOnS.

I'VE went to the islands on the in

We went to practically all the places
Of interest in the islands and came in

Our knowledge Of the conditions in the
islands was thus increased enormous

future discussions touching on th6
handling OF the territory washed by

enormous value there, and we should
see to it thaC they are given proper
protection and that the industry OF the
people is encouraged.
Good feeling toward the United
States predominates all Hawaii. There
are, Of course, large number of reac

who prefer the monarchical TO the re-

for which it stands.
