MAUI CHARMS ARE EXPLOITED,

Secretary II. P. Wood of the
Hawaii Promotion Committee who
last week completed a tour of the
island has returned to Honolulu
and gives a most glowing account
of the scenic beauty of the island
which he says is the leader Of the
group.
In an interview with an adver-
tiser reporter he says.
"As result of what | saw dur
ing my short stay on Maui | think
that | am justified In saying that
that island has more to offer in
the way of scenic attractions for
tourists than any other island in
the group" said Secretary Wood at
the meeting of the Promotion Com
mittee yesterday, reporting on his
recent trip. Mr.. Wood visited the
various points of interest on the
Valley Isle. including the sum nil
OF Haleakala, the plateau at the
head of lao Valley, the trail
through the rubber country and
the field Of the new pineapple in
dustry, and comes back strongly
impressed with the necessity of
advertising Maui still more extern
sively as place for tourists.
Among the recommendations
which Mr.. Wood makes, a recon-
mendation endorsed by the COM
mittee yesterday is that the govern
ment should carry out its policy
inaugurated with the building of
the KilaUea road with prison labor
and put gangs at work in building
a proper trail to Haleakala from
Idlewild and also extending the
trail up lao Valley, past the Need
les and to the summit crater. In
these matters the Secretary was in
structed to bring them to the at
tention Of the Governor.
The meeting yesterday, which
was attended by w. T. Lucas, Jas.
L. Mclean, J. A. McCandless and
Secretary Wood, developed into a
good roads caucus, the main dis
cussion of the meeting being on the
fact that many of the macadam
roads of the district were being
allowed to fail into disrepair The

fact that the road department had
patching gangs now at work was
mentioned, however, as promising
better things. This discussion arose
over a proposal to recommend to
the Supervisors the immediate re-
pairing of the Diamond Head road.
This recommendation was not
adopted, however, as it was not
considered advisable to particular
ize in asking for repairs.
In connection with the trip made
to Maui by the Secretary he re-
ported that the hotel accommodate
tons on that island for tourists
were in fairly good shape. He
thought that rest house at Keanae
would make the ride over that trail
more popular. This was the trip
taken by the Longworths and the
Londons, Il trip which Jack London
declared afforded him more salts
faction than any he had ever taken
anywhere in the world. The Sec
retary was instructed to commune
cate with the Wailuku Improve
ment Association and suggest that
the matter be considered.
SECRETARY'S REPORT.
The regular weekly report OF the
Secretary was:
By the Sierra we received few
lines from Commodore Sinclair OF
the South Coast Yacht Club, stat
ing that his club has added two
new boats to its list this season,
both of which are probable entries
for the 1908 race One of the boats
is about ffty-eight feet water line,
the other about eighty feet. Mr..
Sinclair closed his letter by saying:

WAS QUANTRELL ON MAUl?

County Attorney, D. II. Case

in which he encoses a clipping

the residents of the islands and
should it prove true it viii assist

most notorious characters the Unit

are true it is certainly an interest

Kansas.
Editor Mail and Breeze see
quite discussion in the papers as
to whether Quantrell is alive or
not.
If you will take my word for it
Quantrell is not alive. He died
February 16, 1906, on the island
of Maui, in Hawaii. He had real
property both on Hawaii and Maui.
He had two sons, one at Oahu and
one at Honolulu. | was with him
in prison at Louisville, Ky, and
knew of his mysterious escape at
the time. After the war | met him
in Montana. | went with him
then to Prince William county,
Virginia, near Washington city.
We went over the old battle-ground
at Bull Run and collected several
bits OF history and made map OF
the battle-ground. Quantrell went
under an assumed name.
We visited General Robert E.
Lee and were well entertained by
Captain Tyler of Haymarket. We
married sisters in North Carolina.
We moved to Nebraska where
Quantrell bought and sold lands
He did not act as an agent, but
bought all that he could get. Some
he paid for and some he only gave
notes and mortgages for. He got
deeds to large amounts. The coun-
try was sparsoly settled and he
sold to the best advantage.
We both sold out and went 10 Mis-

man by the name of Martin Rice. in

Rice was a well informed man and
a gentleman, and good at writing

national affairs and was a pre- tty
good finaneier. Quantrcll and I both
took quite an interest in writing and
copying many Of Rice's pieces of poe
try and this seemed to please him
great deal. We took our families to
a place near H9rrisonvile in Cass
county and left chem with a family
by the name Of Ford. We went to

Second Time-Buying at

copyrighted. 1906. by Alfred C. Clark
Mr. Brown, farmer living in
Boone county, Mo-, decided to buy a
spring wagon. The next time he was
in town he went to the local dealer
to see what he had in stock. One
wagon that suited him was offered to
him at SIS. He thought he would
take 1t, but before ordering he looked
over a mail order vehicle catalogue.
Here he saw described wagon which,
as far as description went, was the
same as the one he saw in the deal
er's store room. In fact. the descrip-
ton was written In such convinc.
tng manner and all of the good points
of the mail order vehicle were brought
out so thoroughly that it appeared to
be superior to the other one. And the
price was only $6745. Mr.. Brown
thought of the saving of $7.55 which
represented several days of hard work.
The more he thought about it the
more he wanted to save that amount
,apd in the end the Chicago mail or
der concern got his check.
When the wagon finally arrived,
with freight bill of $3.50. he rode to
town with his son and spent half a
day putting 1t together. He had to
buy screw driver and some oil and
sand paper and few bolts to replace
some that had been lost in shipment

the fact that they are making their
community poorer, reducing the per

business. only to enrich concern al

counties. An extra thousand dollars
In any community will mean. during
the year, many thousands of dollars In
business transacted and increased in
come practically every one in the
community. Often the amount sent
to the mail order houses is more than
enough to turn the balance the other
way and business depression exists
where prosperity would prevail under
normal conditions. Even If the coun-
try purchaser was able to save snug
sum by ordering his supplies from
mail order house, the loss to the com.
munity would be greater than the gain
for himself. 1t is needless to point
out that as the amount of the mail or.
der business from any community in.
creases the amount of loss to the com.
munity also increases, until it is only
a question of time until the individual

of business will exceed the individual
saving.
In fact II everyone in the commun
ity bought from the mail order houses,
local markets would disappear and
the farmer would be compelled to sell
as well as buy from the catalogue
concerns. The rural districts would
be devoid of business activity while
the wealth of the country would be
centered in one or two points. Buy
ing by mail may be attractive. but the
most pronounced mail order fiend
must look with apprehension on any
condition whereby he would be com.
PEELED to depned on the mail order
man for market for his products.
But the idea of saving on individual
purchases Is, to a great extent, a
fallacy. In spite of his boasted ability
to buy In large quantities. he is mo-,
able to buy for much less than the
country merchant. Competition in all
manufactured products is too keen for

The transplanted specimen still re.

again until the following year.
