American Flag is a growth rather than

Previous to the Stars and Stripes of

from 1494, had their use in the Colonial
days. Probably the first seed of our
Star Spangled Banner was sown when,

"The Glorious Fourth dawned in &
very quiet manner, but went out last
night in blaze of glory. During the
day there was a quietness of the Sab
bath throughout all the down town
sections of the city and very order
" merrymaking in the outskirts, max
ing the day, as was generally express
ed, one of the quietest Fourth of Julys
seen in Honolulu for many years.
After nightfall, however, things took
on a brisker air. Every car citybound
came in iammed with passengers and
at the hour when it had been adver-
tised the lights at the Capitol would
be turned on experimentally, the
grounds were crowded, there being
many times as many to see the illumin-
ations as there had been in the morn
ing to hear the orators. There was
some spontaneity evident, too, and the
small boy let loose for noise making
in the way that small boys ought to
do but hadn't so far.
Promptly at half past seven o. o'eloek,
amid a chorus of "Ah's," the light
was switched on to the seven hum
dred cleaning incandescents which
outlined the Capitol, defined the pillars
and clustered on the facades of the
towers and window lodges. The sight
was a beautiful one and the hundreds
who had fiocked in to see it were
satisfied.
The Alexander Young hotel, where
a large number of holiday makers
danced last night, was also brilliantly
illuminated. On the Bishop street face
of this building were strung at least
FIVE hundred ineandescents, while eA-
tending out from the building and
making an Illuminated arbor of the
street were twenty lines of twenty
lights, red, white and blue. The roof
garden was also gay with colorei
lights, the effect of the whole being
greatly admired.

have not only absorbed abundantly
expensive lessons from that source,

Northern California is now able to
supply all the early oranges required,
and she can do it satisfactorily. 1t is
entirely natural that the produce deal
ers and commission merchants of the
Pacific Northwest prefer to give this
business to the growers of Northern
California, rather than to the inferior
growers of far-away Japan, whose
product Is so bad, so negligently grown
and so carelessly put up, not to speak
of it's intrinsic inferiority as palat-
able fruit, that it is at all times re-
ceived with fear and trembling by
every dealer who has had any expert
ence with it.

been difficult for local dealers to Sc
cure sufficient supply
Therefore, everybody was quick to
bid to the japanese shippers, either
to buy or to receive on consignment
Everybody wanted Japs, as they are
cOllOqually called by produce and COM
mission merchants. The Jap shippers
and growers, unfortunately for West
ern Avenue and everybody else con-
cerned, including the Jap growers and
shippers themselves, were there with
the goods, able to fill every order.
AS result of this stampede of the
dealers and the ability of the little
brown men to meet it, from December
4 till December %, 1907, more than 40
900 bundles, or $4,000 boxes, of Jap
oranges were tossed into the bullying
warehouses of Western Avenue. At
the same time it was well known to
the competent operators in the local
market that the street could not pos
sibly handle profitably, at the very out
side, more than 10000 bundles.
Added to this disastrous outlook was
the further discouraging fact that,
with the exception of the first ship
ment, which arrived on the steamship
MIIluSSOId Oh D0ComD0f 4, all Cn6 SNIP
ments came to the dealers or con-
signees in very poor condition, thou
sands of boxes being practically to-
tai loss. One shipment was badly in
jured by bilge-water in the hold of
one of the N. Y. X. steamships, and
owing to loosely drawn insurance
policy the Seattle merchants had to
stand the entire loss.
OF the 10000 bundles, more than g..
600 were bought direct from the grow.
ers and shippers in Japan, and less than
10000 bundles were consigned here on
commission. These oranges were
bought in Japan for AZ cents bundle;
the freight charge was 22 cents per
bundle and the import duty 231a cents
per bundle, making the net cost to To-
cal merchants, not including insurance
premiums and damage in transit,
total of 871s cents bnudle.
By the time the second steamship
arrived with it's yellow load and it be-
came a matter of common knowledge
that everybody, nearly, had plunged in
the market, there was some fancy hus-
Ting on the street, and day after day
brought slump after slump in the price

"A xANY a time within the last five

growers of the Pacific coast, have

and receiving Japs on consignment up
to last year there were rarely enough
Japs in sight to fill all orders. Last
season there were too many, four
times over. and then some. The con-
dition of the fruit was worse than ever.
Fumigation upon arrival, with the
oranges placed in tight car and thor

enough to prevent the fruit inspectors
of Victoria and San Francisco from
condemning every shipment sent them
because the fruit was infected with
living germs and destructive Insects.

and box received.
North California Has the Goods.
That is why there will be few more
jap oranges handled extensively IN
the Pacific Northwest. But that is
not the only reason for this checking
of-the yellow peril: Within the last
six years Northern California has
come into the market as an orange
grower. Its oranges are ready for mar
ket even earlier than the Japs. The
principal reason for the Jap orange
demand here was that 1t came into
the market nearly a month earlier
than any American competitor. The
