campaign there can be no doubt that
there will be as many settlers gained
for Hawaii-morc. midlothian can
be realized by sudden switch to a
new pluything.
Honolulu already has not a few
well-to-do-som wcalthy-settlers,
who have been attracted 10 make
their homes here through the tour
!st work of the Promotion Commit
tee. The city and the country will
certainly gain more by continuing
along the present lines, although the
methods may change.
It is not good business for this
Territory to have the Promotion
Committee hold out hopes to alleged
set, lers when Il well knows that the
present land laws make it difficult to
obtain hOmesteads that can be profit
ably cultivated.
Get them here and let them
starve" is policy that has been pro-
claimed with much prorlne vigor by
one Of the falle-rarm eXponents. The
Promotion Committee cannot sub
scribe to such doctrine directly or
| Indirectly.
Certain private interests in the
Territory have demonstrating propo-
sitions, or are supposed to have. The
Promotion Committee might well
spread these before the people of the
mainland for what they are worth,
side by side with the tourist litera-
ture.
But to drop the tourist work be
cause another scheme Is waved be-
fore the community in glittering gen.
oralitles would be worse than folly.
Hawaii knows that 1t has in these
Islands just what the tourist is look
ing for. The fact that he has not
looked for it as actively this year as
last does not warrant abandoning the
solicitation and turning to new toy.
There is no doubt that this town
mas within recent months assumed a
critical attitude toward the Promo
tion Committee, and this criticism Is
expressed in the comment that the
meetings of the Committee are "all
Woods glowing letters and nothing
more" This, however, while direct
ed as a general broadside, should be
accepted as criticism OF method rath-
er than opposition to the object TO be
gained.

STICK TO TOURIST BUSINESS.

Il IS impossible to consider as coed
business or good public policy Il pro-
puaal for the Hawaii Promotion Com
mittcc to drop It's plans for the de-
Nelopment Of the tourist trade, and
start OF on % new tangent for which
the Territory is not prepared.
Under any circumstances, It is "a
mighty poor cause that has to make
its Roadway by condemning another.
Governor Frcar's statement re.
garding the status of the Territorial
land laws as inapplicable to chang
ing conditions should warn the hon
est men of the Islands against taking
up a hue and cry that sounds well
but pans out otherwise when it comes
down to the brass tacks of putting
bona fidc settlers on the land.

Solicitor George Bell Zimmerman
made an earnest appeal to the citi-
szens of New Brookland on Friday
night to let the law take its course in
the ease of the two negroes who so
brntally and saYagely murdered the
aged Mrs. Ellisor at her home on
"Wednesday. The, Solicitor promised
{ to Use his best efforts to get an early
trial. Gov. Ahsel should grant Mr..
Zimmerman s request in this case and
order the special term without delay.
AT the same time, we don't believe
there is any danger of lYnching;
I'VE have more faith in the good citi-
zenship Of our county. The negroes
will nndo oubtedly get a speedy trial,
and the culprits legally executed. To
attempt to take the law into their
own hands now, would be disgraceful
and unbecoming to civilized and
law-abiding community. We appeal
to Gov. Ansel for an early trial and
we appeal to the good people of our
county not TO interfere, but let the
law take its course. We feel safe in
saying that once the men are placed
IN the care of Lexington's brave and,
manly sheriff, the majesty of the law
will be upheld at any and all hazards.

Business Trip to Prosperity.

Oh Thursday it was the Editors
pleasure to take a business trip to the
beautiful and growing town. OF Pros
perity. It was our first visit to this
little town and to say that we were
4delighted with the people of the place
lis putting it mildly.
Prosperity is backed by one of the
best farming sections in South Caro-
lima. and the merchants Of the place
/ do a. large business throughout the
I year. DUST at this season, however,
when aH the farmers are busy, and
the roads bad, business is on the
I ssouietp In aItoWns. But Prosperity
! is q great distributing centre Of fertil-
izers, and hundreds of wagons were
seen loaded with guano of the many
different brands, during our short stay
The The town can boast Of some hand
some store buildings and residences,
all Of which lends attractiveness to
the general surroundings. The stores
carry large and we'll selected stocks
and you can find any class Of mer-
chandise you may wish right in this
little toWn. Two banks The Peoples
National Bank and the Bank of Pros
perity-are both ia a prosperous con-
dition, the financial stringency now
being q thing of the past. The school
Jisj one Of the best in the country. and
is under The supervision Of competent
teachers.
The people are God-fearing, as is
evidenced by the number of churches
n the place, which speaks well for
the people OF the town and surround
ing community.
! u While our stay was short it wasnone
the less enjoyed, and we trust that
fortune will cause US to again visit the
town at no distant future.
