i
+ the list of well known lecturers who
propose featuring Hawaii in their pub
/ lie addresses. The result of their lee
lures will not, of course, be felt before
| the season of 190S-1909. but in our work
we have to look well ahead in order to
/ secure results.
/ BY the steamer America Maru We
received the following letter:
Los Angeles, Cal, oct. 1, 1907.
III. P. Wood, Esq, Secretary, Cham
Der of Commerce, Honolulu, Ha-
wall.

Manager, S. S. Department..
This adds another to the list of pos
sible excursions for the season of 1907
1908.
Miss Hart of Long Beach, California,
writes that her plans are maturing
satisfactorily. Mr. Scott of San Fran
cisco feels assured of at least twenty
five (25) in his December party. The
Seattle excursion will probably bring
two hundred (200) people sometime
during February and by the last mail
word came to hand that renewed eff
forts We're being made to secure the
Sierra for an all California excursion
with good prospects of success.
Our friend, Mr.. B. L. Lomax, gener-
al passenger agent of the Union Pa
cific Railroad Company, writes that he
will gladly undertake, without charge,
the distribution of our folders among
the various general agents of the
Union Pacific railway throughout the
East and Middle West.
In addition to the assistance offered
by Thos. Cook & Sons, in distributing
our folders at Yokohama, the agent of
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
at that port, Mr.. B. C. Howard, writes
will gladly see to it that the racks on
board our steamers plying out of Yo-
kohama are kept supplied with the
folder Hawaii. -
Each mail brings in its contribution
of photographs of some port on the
Pacific. The last to arrive were from
Tacoma.
Mr.. E. J. Coyle, agent of the Cana
dian-Pacific railway, writes that he
will shortly send us some special pho
tographs of the waterfronts Of Van
couver and Victoria so it should not be
long before our album of the leading
ports of the Pacific is quite complete.
A letter from Mr.. BONNIE, dated Sep
TENDER "a, states that an engagement
at St. Louis will prevent his leaving
for Hawaii as soon as expected. He
has, however, dispatched a second lot
of Photographic supplies and hopes to
reach Honolulu shortly after the ar
rival of his two shipments of freight, |
the end of November or early in De-
cember.
A letter from the Hon. John Fowler, |
Consul General for the United States |
at Chefoo, China, acknowledges the re-
ceipt of our folders and asks for an |
additional supply. Mr.. Fowler also |
suggests that we place our advertising !
matter on file at each American Mis-
sion Station throughout the Orient,
which L shall proceed to do as quickly !
rs correct lists of the stations can be
secured.
The following letter from the secre-
AIRY of the Chamber of Commerce at
Elmira, New York, is a direct result
