PEARL HsRb0R BILL

Delegate Kuhios letter makes
clear the Pearl Harbor appropriation
status that has been the cause of
some local worry on account of final
action not having been taken, and
Congress being so near adjournment.
The bill passed by the House mas
been included in the Naval appropri-
alton bill of the Senate after some
items were increased few hunured

1t now goes to conference and the
only matter of doubt is whether the
House will accept the Senate in

FUDGE

Business men are warned against
the wiles of the politician by crimi-
nal campaigners that were so recent
ly belaboring the business men with
insult and Misrepresentation.
We doubt very much that the bus
mess men of the city Of Honolulu
need any lengthy instructions on
their course in politics. And from
the source that appeals to them to
accept its say-so, 1t is ridiculous.
The claims of Achi and the CAM
paigners of malice are about on a
par. The only difference is that the
latter are dishonest and are proud of
1t, while Charlie swells up like a
poisoned pup and really makes him
self believe what' he says.

Mr.. G. L. La Rue of Sacramento,
California, who has travelled exten.
sively around the world, returned
from Hawaii by the S. s. "Mauna

terview he said:
Yes, | have just been to the Vol
cano. Was 1t worth while? Well!

not have missed ii for any consider
alton; 1t Is a spectacular perform
ance which cannot be described; 1t is
so awfully fascinating that one can
hardly leave It. IL my business
would have permitted, | would have
remained there week. The wonder
to me is that your Honolulu people
do not make more of it; they can't
ealize the extent of the present ac-
tiyity; understand that hundreds OF
PEOPLE went up to see the flow of
1907, and that 1t was not bit more
attractive than Kilauea is at the pres
ent time"
Everybody returns from the VOL
cano with the same enthusiasm, and
yet Honolulu has not awakened to
the fact that great eruption is tax.

MOTT-SMITH may
GO TO kauai

Acting Governor Mott-Smith had u
consultation with Superintendent OF
Public Works Marston Campbell this
morning with regard to an abutment
built In the Waimea river which has
changed the course of the stream to
a considerable extent, so that the
land on one side Is being piled up on
the opposite side. This is on Govern
ment land, leased to the Knudsens
and sublet by them to A. Robinson.
Although the matter has not been
gone into sufficiently as yet, it is OF
such Importance that Mott-Smith
may take a trip down. At any rate,
there will be a conference between
the Knudsens, Mr.. Robinson, and the
Government interests.

Governor Frear this morning, who
stated that efforts have been made to
locate Spalding, and 1t has been dis
covered that he was due In Calcutta
on April 22nd, In Bombay on May .,
and in Alden on May 18th.
Acting Governor Mott-Smith stated
this morning that he would probably
wire to Fairchild this afternoon, and
find out whether or not he has had
any word from Spalding lately, and II
not, will inform him of the contents
of the Governors letter relative to
Spaldings itinerary. Then only few
days will be allowed Fairchild in
which to communicate with his prin.
cipal. At the present rate, the Gov
eminent is losing about $500 month
on the Kappa lands, stated Mott-Smith
this morning, and consequently 1t is
desired that the matter be settled one
way or the other In as short time as
possible.

Trade and industry continue de-
pressed and unfortunately the signs
Ul renewed activity are few and far
Between. Economy IS still the order
Of the day in both corporate and pri-
yate expenditures; and retailers are
now feeling the effect of depression,
which results in the placing OF fewer
orders for nearly all manufactured
products, thus diminishing the vol
ume of trade and keeping many in
dustrial establishments on short
time. OF course the present rate OF
curtailment cannot go on indefinitely.
supplies will become exhausted and

seem as though no permanent revival
could be anticipated until the process
Of readjustment had run its legitl-
uate course. This is something that
win require both time and patience.
1t is thus that Henry Clews COM

the mainland the latter part of April.
But the outlook is not entirely
blue, according to the remarks of the
banking circular, in another section.

Still another source of confidence
In the future is found in the state
ment of Clews that crop prospects
are much better than a year ago;
spring being earlier and the advent
of milder weather is an undoubted
stimulant."
Good crops harvested as the Pres
idential excitement comes to a close
will have an effect on the country
that can bring but one result--pros-
perity.
In the meantime the Territory Of
Hawaii will have had a year OF agri-
cultural prosperity and progressive
legislation, that should make 1t tho
leader OF the country in the move
ment toward a return of the good old
days. The future days, however. will
be better than the old, because. with
