What Hawaii Sells.
The statistics for the nine months
period. ending March 81, 1908 show
that Hawaii shipped to che mainland
market domestic merchandise valued
at S25, 45l, S39. For the same period
of 1907 the figures were sl7.9S5,722.
and for 1906 sl7,4S5,941.
In connection with these figures II
Is well to bear in mind that Hawaii
is this year taking of its banner crop
of sugar and selling It at the best
average of prices-owing to the heavy
drought In Cuba last year-for many
years.
In glancing over the list OF the prin.
cipal products Hawaii sends to the
mainland the predominance Of sugar

Business With Japan.
The japanese population occupies
such an overwhelming numerical
position In the population OF the Ter.
ritory Of Hawaii that a steady In.
crease of Hawaii's trade with Japan
is to be expected. There Is nothing
TO suggest however that this Increase
Is gained at the expense Of the Ameri.
can merchant. The goods brought
to the islands from Japan are made
up almost wholly Of Japanese food.
stuffs and wearing apparel peculiar
to Japan.
Turning again to the Bureau OF

show that Hawaii's imports Of foreign
goods during the nine months ending
March 81, 1908, were valued at 49,.

The people OF Hawaii have always
been heavy purchasers in the main.
land markets and their business Is
increasing every year
Fortunately the Government, since
the annexation of the islands and
their organization as a Territory, has
insisted on record being kept of the
value of shipments Of domestic mer.
chandise passing to and from the
mainland and the Islands. In this
WY cNaC. statistics are obtainablc OF
the status oil iiawlii's business with
The markets Of he mainland.
During the ten years from 1897 to
1907 the purchases Of Hawaii in the
mainland markets. more than trebled.
This ten year period goes back one
year before annexation. but the first
ten years OF Hawaii under the Ameri.
can flag will probably offer better
showing from the standpoint Of the
mainland merchant az well as the
business men OF the Territory.
The statistics complied monthly by
the Bureau Of Statistics Of the Depart.
ment of Commerce and Labor furnish
IN interesting anu HCCuTdle sttleliltHl
of what and how much the people OF
Hawaii are buying from the mainland
and In return disposing to mainland
markets.
The latest summary published by
the bureau gives the value of ship
ments to and from the mainland for
the nine months period ending with
March 81. 1908.
Hawali's shipments from the main.
land in this period were valued at
sl0.900,SS2 For the same period of
1907 the figures were s10,2S5,7l3, and
for 1906 s9,052 ,302. The increase val.
ne OF Hawaii's shipments has pro
gressed at tho rate Of about a million
year.
The main items In the list Of our
island purchases prove that the peo-
pie OF the Territory are heavy buyers
of American manufactures and also
one of the best patrons of the Ameri-
can farmer. The breadstuffs, the hay,
the meat and dairy products together

Death of Mrs. Henry Watson.

The news of the death of Mrs.
Henry Watsony which occurred at
the home of Mrs. Lulu Coleman
at Live Oak, early this morning,
came as a shock to her family and
friends. Mrs. Watson had been
in failing health for some time,
and recently, accompanied by
members of her family, went down
to Live Oak, hopeful that the
change would prove beneficial.
Before marriage Mrs. Watson
was Miss Sue Alice Pollard, daugh-
ter of DR.. and Mrs. Edmund Pol
lard, who were long residents of
this parish in ante bellum days;
she was about fifty-two years old +.
Deceased was married in St.
Joseph some tweuty-odd years
ago to Mr.. Henry Watson, who
preceded her to the Great Beyond.
Their union was blessed with six
children, all of whom survive
The children are: Mrs. Sidney
Watson, Mr.. ]. Tullis Watson,
Jr., Miss Henrietta and Miss Susie
Watson and Master Young and
little Virginia, the latter quite
small.
Mrs. Watson was a most esti-
mable lady, a devoted wife and
fond and indulgent mother; her
home was her delight and the
comfort and pleasure of her loved
ones her one thought.
After a busy and useful life she
died as she had lived-honored
trusted and loved. She reared her
own monument while she lived in
the hearts of all who knew her.
Her life was completed if work
we'll done signifies completion.
Her Christian life was beautiful
from it's beginning to its close,
and through all the vicissitutes
and sorrows that she met in the
way, her faith in God never wa
vered. May her soul rest in peacel

Farmers around here are busy pre-

statement. He speaks in incompre-
hensible terms. ! know of man in
this county, an old reliable citizen
like the latter, who would make no
statement nor say anything unless
it was true. If the Sather writer
means to know it he may ask his
friend, If his friend can remember
when one day last spring, when court
adjourned for a. week, this old citi.
zen was in his office and said, "Why
don't you get Martin now, so they

formation, both through the commit
tee itself and through government
agents who should report to the COM
mittee and should lay before it the
facts which would permit it to act
with prompt and intelligent fairness.
These government agents, if 1t is
not deemed wise to appoint individ-
uals from outside the public service,
might with advantage be members of
the executive departments, designated
by the president, on his own motion
or on the request of the committee to
act with It,.
! am of the opinion, however, that
one change in the tariff could with
advantage be made forthwith. Our
forests need every protection and one
method of protecting them would be
to put upon the free list wood pulp,
with a corresponding reduction upon
paper made from wood pulp, when
they come from any country that does
not put an export duty upon them.

sion, with whatever power is required
to make it effective. The reasonable
expectation of the people will not be
met unless the congress provides at
this session for the beginning and
prosecution of the actual work of wa
terways improvement and control. The
congress should recognize in fullest
fashion the fact that the subject of
the conservation of our natural re-
sources, with which this commission
deals, is literally vital for the future
of the nation.
Numerous bills granting water
power rights on navigable streams
have been introduced. None of them
give the government the right to make
reasonable charge for the valuable
privileges so granted, in spite of the
fact that these water power privileges
are equivalent to many thousands OF
acres of the best coal lands for their
production Of power. Nor is any def
mite time limit set, as should always
be done In such cases. I shall be
obliged hereafter, in accordance with
the policy stated in a recent message,
to veto any water power bill which
does not provide for time limit and
for the right of the president or of
the secretary concerned to fix and
collect such charge as he may find
to be just and reasonable in each case.

SCARCITY OF HORSES
EMBARRASSES ARMY
GOVERNMENT MAY ENGAGE IN
HORSE RAISING TO SUP
PLY DEMAND

san Antonio, Texas, Mar 25.-Spe-
clal-Ofhcers in garrison at Fort Sam
Houston are worried by the fact that
horse famine threatens the United
States army. So serious is the short
age OF cavalry and artillery horses
that the war department has asked
for suggestions fer a solution of the
problem Although the governments
sets no limit on the price to be paid
for good horses, yet it is impossible
to get enough animals to meet the
needs of the army. Furthermore, it
is maintained by veteran cavalry Of
ficers here that the quality Of horses
furnished the army is deteriorating.
1t has been suggested by officers
here that the government establish
horse farms for the purpose of breed
ing and raising young horses and
colts. Another plan is for the govern
ment to import fine stations and help
the American breeders to bring the
stock up to higher standard, claim
ing the right to purchase from the 10.
cal horse raisers all of the male colts.
Texas as well as other horse rails.
ing states of the southwest was large
ly denuded of it's stock at the time of
the Boer war The Spanish war also
took many horses away, and ever
since then, despite the use of automo-
biles, the price of horses has steadily
increased. There are, however, a
great many horse raisers in Texas,
and in few years this state will be
able to do much toward meeting the
existing demand for good horses.
