Shoes That Wear

Have you purchased them
yet? IF not, it's high time
you did, for from now on
you'll need a little heavier,
stouter, more wearable
shoe than in summer. If
you've got four or FIVE dol
lars to spare for shoes, and
don't care what sort of
shoes you get, so long as
they're fve-dollar shoes,
why there's lots of other
places TO get them besides
here. But-and here's the
point--if you want a good
substantial, comfortable,
stylish pair of shoes and
want TO pay just as little for
them as you can, and still
be sure of getting these
qualities, come here and
we'll guarantee TO satisfy
you.

Good UndGrCIOtheS

All qualities, grades and
prices you'll find here.
But, as with everything
else, you'll find only one
low thing about them and
that is price. Does that
fact mean anything to you?
1t does to lots of people.

Men WGII-tOppG

Are YOU one ofthe many?
To be well-hatted doesn't
necessarily mean that
you've got to pay a big
price for a hat. OF course
you can if you care to.
But a good many men in
this town don't. They
come to us and for a com.
paratively small sum get a
hat equal to the ones sold
in most stores for half again
as much. Catch the drift
of all the foregoing re-
markS-it means economy
TO you.

Backward; but this is n crop which
develops rapidly, and would quickly
respond to few days of hot weather.
So far there is no reason for concern
In regard to the crops; on the con-
trary, there is still every reason to
look forward to comparative abund-
ance and good prices for the fruits of
the earth; conditions still being so
high as to leave ample margin for
ordinary deterioration during the
next two or three months.
"In the business outlook there is
little change, and a very quiet sum-
mer for all lines of industry is In
prospect. II is quite evident that a
further period of rest will be neces-
sary for convalescence after the Sc
we're crisis of last October. Recovery
will require more time than some i'm
patient people will admit. The sit
uation is steadily improving, and the
outlook is certainly hopeful; but this
is not time to be over-sanguine, and
moderate anticipati2ns are much
more likely to be realized than those
of over-enthusiastic prosperity BOOM
ers, whose wishes are too often faith
er to the thought. The unsatisfac-
tory condition of railroad affairs is
still an element to be reckoned with.
Latest reports of earnings continue
unsatisfactory; the gross returns of
railroads reported in May showing a
loss of over "a per cent. compared
with less than 90 per cent. loss in
April. IA per cent. in March, 10 pei
cent. in February, and per cent. In
January. 1t has thus taken seven
months for the railroads to feel the
full consequences Of the panic. Those
consequences have grown steadily
worse. The first effect was to render
1t impossible. for the railroads to raise
money for carrying out projected i'm.

MAINLAND BUSINESS SHOW
REVIVING.

Hawaii will have to acknowledge
1t of being, at the present time, one
of the most prosperous places on
earth.
The moueY seems at times to he
very slow in becoming distributed
from the hands OF the few into the
pockets Of the many, but with the
present course of affairs It cannot be
a matter of many months before the
good influence, by crops and good
prices, will be more forcibly felt all
along the line.
The same can hardly be said of the
mainland. The banking circulars
which yesterday predicted a long ar
ray of good things and good times,
appear tomorrow with reasons why
1t has not worked out as expected.
One is impressed with this by fol-
lowing the Clews circulars, which re-
feet the atmosphere of Wall Street.
And. say what we may. Wall Street is
the heart of things in financial Amer
lea. II is true that the outlook is
better, but the revival is not as
speedy as many were led to expect.
Clews in the latest circular says:
I'VE are now approaching the pc
Rod OF usual summer dizziness; and
many operators are absent on vaca-
lions or disinclined to activity until
political and crop uncertainties are
cleared away. The crop outlook, as
q whole, continues encouraging. Oc-
casional damage has been done by ex-
cessive rains, but as rule such in
iuries are more than Offset by high

bored, but the results Are inconspic-
uous. They are in marked inverse
proportion to the zeal and enthusiasm
proclaimed in the enforcement of the
law. If the claims are based upon
information, rather than upon imagi-
nation, then the old Scotch couplet
might well apply:
"Woe to the coward that ever he was

he blew the horn"

pulsory cut-down in expenses. Then
dividends began to decline, and now
the companies find themselves in a
somewhat serious dilemma, out of
which there are only two ways OF es-
cape, either recovery in earnings
through business improvement, or
still further retrenchment in ex-
penses. Should the latter be neces-
sary, It means a cut-down in wages,
or withdrawal of the advances
granted to labor In 1906 and 1907.
1t Is to be hoped such step will not
be necessary, and that satisfactory
solution will be found in business re-
vival. There has been serious talk of
an advance in freight rates, but this
would be unwise policy; since It
would check rather than stimulate
traffic, and revive public hostility to
railroads, which after having done
sufficient harm is now really abating
The most favorable feature in the
railroad situation is that the number
of idle cars is beginning to decrease
1t is to be hoped the railroads have
experienced the worst of the depres-
sion, and will before long begin to
reflect the improvement in general
business. clearinghouse returns are
already making better exhibits; the
declines now running in the vicinity
of 10 per cent. compared with 20 per
cent. and over few weeks ago, and
this in spite of diminished specula-
tive activity"

GOVERNOR FREAR'S LAND POLICY

The last man in the Territory to
Use his newly outlined land policy as
as@eapon for taking a slap at the
European immigrant would be Gov
etnor Frear.
THAT his very commendable scheme
should he taken as such a cudgel is
ridiculous in the extreme. 1t serves
nd, other purpose than to furnish
campaign material for mainland enc
nitfs of Hawaii who have been active
in Congress and will continue to be
active in Congress to accomplish the
defeat of the Administration policy

BGovernor Frear's homesteading
Proposal as it appears on paper bears
every promise to serving>the end for
which 1t has been framed-an easy
way Tor the honest homesteader and
complete blockade for the land
speculator.
One of the most commendable fea-
lures of the Governors plan is his
wiping out of the interest charge
made against the homesteader. There
is every reason why the man who
seeks 10 make home for himself by
developing land which he cultivates
should not be loaded down with an
interest charge as well as his pur-
chase price. The commonwealth will
dustry of the homebuilder and his
way should be made as easy as pos
sible.
The ten-year period for obtaining
title to the land will not work a
hardship on the man who goes upon
the land to establish a home. II he
does not wish to be q permanent set
tier, he is not wanted. The Territory
has had enough of the law-dodgeD

eating. The scheme looks all right
Now back 1t up with Action, so that
the citizens of this Territory and
those attracted from abroad may
make their start.
Meanwhile the campaign for the

LITTLEFIELD SCORES
ROOSEVELT RESULTS

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 90. Con-
gresham Charles l.. Littlefeld, whom
the Administration saved from defeat
at the last election in Maine, held
President Roosevelt up to ridicule
and scorn today in speech before
the Illinois State Bar Association, at
the convention In the Chicago Beach
Hotel. His topic was 1.-THE Sherman
Antitrust Act and Its Proposed
Amendment
The 200 or more members Of the
association present leaned forward
in surprise to listen when Congress-
man Littlefeld unlimbered his bat
teries on the President The first in
dication of 1t came when he referred
to Senator Lodges assertion at the
Republican National Convention that
Roosevelt enforced antitrust laws"
II think" said the Congressman
from Maine, that this enforcement
has been matter of proclamation
rather than performance. President
Roosevelt's administration, from Sep
TENDER IA, 1901, to June, 1908,
shows the following summary of civil
cases brought under the Sherman an
ti-trust law:
Bills in equity ............... IS
