UNIQUE PRESENT
To Mr.. HOSMER
Grandfather's Clock of k0a
Wood From Mahogany
Company.

An article that would delight the
heart of the Kilohana Art League
membership, if placed in the home of
that organization, stands in the board
room of the Board of Agriculture and
Forestry.
It is only a clock, but a timepiece
combining the ancient and the modern
very strikingly. The works are in
stalled in an enclosed case at the top
of an open framework. They are Of
the grandfather's clock type, being
operated by iron weights attached to
dogchain. Winding is performed by
the primitive method of pulling down
counterweight chains. The chains are
a variation from the cordage used in
the same manner in the clocks of the
eighteenth century which many still
living will remember in the homes
their grandsires built.
What is new in the clock is the
wood of the case and framework.
This is all koa in natural finish with
oil polish, the parts being severely
angular and plain, a card on the
wall adjacent reads:
Presented to the superintendent OF
Forestry by the Hawaiian Mahogany
Company, Ltd. The case is koa (Ha-
waiian mahogany-Acacia koa)."
Brass figures of Arabic notation in
relief mark the hours on square dial
containing no ruling, either straight,
curving or circular. There is no glass
over the dial The pendulum disk is
OF polished brass, the rod being of
forged iron. All of the handlwork e1-
cepting the polished brass figures and
pendulum is of rustic make, except
ing that the woodwork is tool-hnshed.
There is no bark or knot upon 1t.
Superintendent Hosmer has reason
to be proud of such a rare gift coming
at this festive season.

had ~ revenue cutters, many of them
stationed at ports collecting less duty
and of less Importance than Honolulu.
San Juan, Porto Rico, has a cutter of
| 936 tons, and is only short sail from
the Florida coast, where several revenue
cutters are stationed and can be easily
available in time of need.
The Hawaiian group are 2100 miles
from the mainland, and with their
many islands and broken coast lines,
afford opportunities for smuggling, or
the landing of arms and ammunition in
case of insurrection or hostilities,
which are impossible to prevent with
out the presence of a revenue cutter.
The United States are expanding
large sums and employing numerous
vessels in the protection of the seals
in the Attic ocean; the necessity of
protecting the birds, which frequent
Laysan, Midway, Lisiansky and ad-
joining islands in myriads is also
recognized. From the direct testi-
mony of people from those islands, it
seems that some 100000 birds have re-
Gently been slaughtered there for their
plumage by the crews of three small
vessels.
OF the many uses for revenue cut
ter at this port, one of the most i'm
portant, without doubt, is the relief
of vessels in distress, we would allude
to the signal service rendered by the
Manning on the occasion of the ground
ing of the Manchuria and also the
Mary E. Foster off Oahu. In such
cases timely assistance is of the utmost
Importance, and this the revenue boats
can render an account of their SUI
perior speed. During the fiscal year,
which ended June 80, 1907, 430 yes
sells aggregating 100000 tons enter
ed and cleared from this port, this
tonnage has been constantly increas-
ing and there is every reason to ex-
pect great increase of shipping to
these islands in the near future, which
will make the need of a revenue cut
ter constantly in these waters more
and more imperative.
The fact that there is not a life
saving station or crew on any of these
islands, should convince Congress of
the absolute necessity of a revenue cut
ter stationed here to act in the capacity
of life saving at wrecks that are liza
bic to occur at any time in these
waters.
The Honolulu Chamber of Commerce
earnestly hopes that your efforts to
obtain this vessel for US will meet
with early success.
Yours very truly.

President

! Mr.. johnson presented strong argu-
ments in favor Of the Holland Sub
marine Company's type of boat for
harbor and coast defense. These were:
Their effectiveness against battleships
as shown by the French maneuvers I'M
der Admiral Fournier; the short time
in which they can be built and equip
ped; their great advantage through
mobility over fixed defenses; their mod
crate cost, (say 100000 each); the
small crew necessary. The committee
go on to say that the "Chamber is
! sparing no effort to secure adequate
defenses for this Territory, but neces-
sarily in entire harmony and coopera-
tiOn with the military and naval au-
thorities, and while the submarine has
no doubt passed the experimental stage
and seems to be particularly adapted
to our requirements for coast and har-
Dor defense, we consider this a tech
nical subject pertaining to the navy
officials, no doubt having their full con-
sideration, and upon which it would
be as impolitic for us as a commercial
body to pass as it would be for us
to attempt to determine what particu-
lar calibers of guns are needed for
our defenses We therefore recommend
that this Chamber take no action in
this matter unless it becomes evident
that our cooperation is needed either
to further the efforts of the Navy De-
partment to secure appropriations for
submarines for these waters, or to as
sist in any possible movement for the
same purpose by the commercial bodies
of the Pacific Coast
The report is signed by E. T. Spald-
ing, E. d. Tenney and L. T. Peck.
RESOLUTION OF RESPECT.
President Morgan said: :" Since the
last meeting of the Chamber we have
lost one of our active members and
a valued and useful member of the
Board of Trustees, Alexander Garvie.
He was one who was always assisting
in the good work of the Chamber OF
Commerce, and one whose loss will be
greatly felt. Mr.. Spalding has a reso-
luton to Offer
Mr.. Spalding then offered the follow
ing resolution:
at Is Herewith Resolved by the trus-
tees of the Honolulu Chamber of Com
merce that, in the death of Mr.. Alex
ander Garvie, there has been sustained
loss to this Chamber and to the com
mercial life of this Territory.
''That our loss is the services and
helpful aid of one, who, in all mat
tiers relating to this Chamber, has al
ways evinced an earnest endeavor to
actively serve its interests
''The business community has suffer
ed the loss of kindly, conscientious
and honest citizen.
''That we herewith tender to the
members of his family our sincere sor-
row for their loss.

REPORT on REVENUE CUTTER.

REPORT ON REVENUE CUTTER.
The Committee on Harbor, Shipping
and transportation presented a report
on the matter of securing an appro-
priation for a revenue cutter at this
port. The report says that since 1901
the Secretary of the Treasury has in
Guided an item of $225,000 for rev.
enue cutter in the islands in his
estimates, but that it has regularly
failed to pass congress. The commit
tee suggests that on account of the
increased cost of construction the item
in the estimate ought to be increased
to S275,000 for a revenue cutter of
$50 tons. The report is signed by E.
/. Spalding and A. n. Campbell and
sets out the special needs of a revenue
cutter for these waters. These rea-
sons with others have been embodied
in a letter by President Morgan which
he has sent to Secretary of the Treas
ury, George b. Cortelyou, and to a
number of influential congressman. In
this letter President Morgan SAYS:
The Manning was sent here for
time and amply demonstrated the
necessity of having a Gutter in
these waters, but, as she is required
for service in the Attic, her stay with
us could be temporary only. irrespec-
tive of the accident, which is now lay
ing her up for an indefinite time.
