IN QUEENSLAND.

ooh, what about tropical Queens
land? Queensland is not so rich and
populous as some of the other Aus
tralian States, and she has had but
seven months experience with a tour
list bureau. The head of the bureau
is on his way to the Anglo French
exhibition in London (and Mr.. Percy
Hunter of Sydney will enthuse him
there). His representative in Brisbane
approved the idea of joint effort for
advertising in America and viii take
the matter up with the Premier of
Queensland just as soon as official rec
ignition comes from Hawaii. The
Australia United S. s. Co. has it's
headquarters in Brisbane, so / dropped
in for a chat with the traffic man
ager and found him more than willing
to put his shoulder to the wheel and
to tempt tourists. He was quite ready
to make special rates to the tourist
and in every way show that his COM
ing would be appreciated. This COM
pany runs boats up and down the
coast of Australia, to Noumea, in
French. New Caledonia, and to Fiji.
besides the delightful cruise among
the Fijian Islands. In fact, it seems
quite possible that the ten shilling
day cruises about Australian waters
may be made to start from Suva. the
capital of Fiji. and there would be
number of cruises, at this price, last
ing from twelve to fifty-two days
each, to select from or combine. In
fact, from beginning to end of my
trip it was impressed upon
me that the South Sea Island cruises
and the prosperity Of the land lying
under the Southern Cross had been
created by cheap cruising rates that
brought tourists who in some cases
become settlers, when, alas, they had
to pay exorbitant local fares. From
Queensland in Australia to California
in America I stand for the five dollar
a day fare, and, when it can be Sc
cured, even the lower rate. Australia
has demonstrated the feasibility of
moderate passenger charges, so let US
follow her lead.

We need as a branch of promotion

the Welcome Society OF Japan. When
great personages are to spend day

and given a good impression. Then,
again, is there no means of having the
band play. as of old, upon the depar-
ture of the mail boats? How many 1

plays. Aloha De- and the Royal
Hawaiian Band are typical only of
Hawaii. The band and the Hawaiian

Did I do anything practical in Aus

ney who imports real Mocha coffee,
and his is one of the two or three
places in Australia where it is pos
sible to secure a cup of coffee-Sans
chicory. l was refused a cup OF
coffee at the leading hotel
in Australia. This Arab Mockbell is
doing splendid missionary work, and
in chat with his son I spoke of our
Kona coffee and am TO send him sew

judge of it. If it is good, perhaps we
may make an ally of his and introduce
coffee to the Australians. I
also urged upon the management of
the UnfDn S. s. Co. that it was their
duty, if we put through the hands
all round tourist movement endeavor,
to use only Pacific-g grown coffee. BY
the way. what plans have been made
to stock the coming Yankee squadron
With Kona coffee? Some of the Con-
gressional party promised me last year
that they would work to pass a bill |
that >only American coffee grown by
Americans shall be served to the army |
and navy. l have not forgotten that |
promise and trust the Hawaiians will
urge its fulfillment. i

FORD BACK FROM
THE ANTIPODES
Proposes Great Pan-Pacfc Tourist Campaign
in Which the Colonies and Islands to the
South Shall Join With Hawaii

Yes l am back in Hawaii" said
the Moana from the Colonies. Il talk
ed Hawaii SO much in Australia that
made myself homesick; I talked Ha-
waii everywhere and wrote it as much
as L wrote anything. Why? Because
I do believe that Hawaii is the beauty
spot of the world, and then, too, the
day before I left Honolulu last June
lunched with a number of leading
citizens including the Governor and
We talked Hawaii's needs, immigration,
the work of the Promotion Committee,
etc, and l passed my word that I
would also put my shoulder to the
wheel. In fact I imposed the task
upon myself of visiting all the Tourist
Bureaus of Australasia and the South
Seas and suggesting to them to unite
with Hawaii for promotion work
throughout America, rather than each
going it separately and extensively as
at present. 1 merely suggested and
discussed, exchanging views. with the
understanding that I would bear mes
sages back to Hawaii, and that then
the whole matter could be taken UP
officially-if it was thought best to
do so.
What did I urge? I didn't urge,
L merely advocated promotion offices
in New York, and perhaps Chicago and
San Francisco, where tourists sand
others might secure accurate knowledge
of Pacific lands, without having to-
write to far away places and wait
for a reply. T suggested a
general ticket Office where the tourist
in America might buy his tickets and
gain full information while in the spirit
of travel, also show rooms where the
and beauties of the lands
beneath the Southern Cross might be
demonstrated by illustration, pamph-
let's and lectures. With five Austria
ian colonies, New Zealand, the South
Sea Islands and Hawaii sharing ex-
penses, much might be accomplished
at little cost to each. OF course the
plan was to draw all these tourists
south via Hawaii and Hawaii being |
American theyNat once saw that they
must let her take the lead and they |
follow.

he is waiting to hear further develop

that the Union s. S. Co. will build one

The fullest need of praise is due all
who have in any way been connected
with the Muster. Adjutant General
Farnham has worked indefatigablv
on all the details, and he has had able
assistance from officers and men. In
order that the war game might be
played successfully it was necessary
that some organizations should be as
signed to active service, and that some
should play the part of reserve
force. That is why praise given in
discriminatory to organizations which
happen to be assigned to conspicuous
duty is unfair. At the Muster lust
closed, every officer and man may re-
turn home feeling that he has done
his part, and when the sugar candy

Major Wclch under Col Collins. The
attack at this point was somewhat de-
layed, and the engagement had just
started with Major Peterson making
the attack against the left flank of the
defense when a general recall was
sounded, which marked a cessation of
hostilities. The Sd battalion under
Major Presson had been withdrawn
from the extreme right of the defense
and took up a position on the imme-
diate right of Col Hume's forces,
commanding the approaching left flank

The disposition of the defense at this
time appeared to be such as to make
