Times of the tide are taken from the
U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey ta-
bles. The tides at Kahului and Hilo
occur about one hour earlier than at
Honolulu. Honolulu standard time is
10 hours 80 minutes slower than Green
wich time, being that of the meridian
OF 157 degrees 80 minutes. The time
whistle blows at 1870 p. m. which is
the same as Greenwich, 0 hours, min
'utes. The Sun and Moon are for local
time for the whole group.

1T will generally be conceded" says
the London Engineer "that the scout
is unsuitable for the other purposes
for which we require cruisers, and we
are face to face with a situation OF
our own making where unless we ac-
cept limitations of some of the essen
tial qualities of a cruiser, it has be-
come practically impossible to produce
one of moderate dimensions. We have
made the pace, other nations will fol-
low, and it appears inevitable that
large expenditure will be necessary in
the future if we are to maintain our
position" The trend of design for
cruisers has been in the direction OF
increased displacements, and the main
factor of that increase has been speed,
which should not be less than twenty
four knots. This necessitates ample
coal capacisy; as to armor and arma-
ment experts differ. when it is re-
membered that the vessels of the
County class, with nothing more than
siX-inch guns, lightly armored, and
with twenty-three knots speed, are OF
from 5000 to 10000 tons, while the
Drake and her sisters, better armed,
and of twenty-four knots speed, are or
$4,000 tons, it will be realized that the
minimum displacement of the modern
first-class cruiser cannot be much less
than the last named figure. When this
stage has been reached, it is an open
question whether better value cannot
be obtained for the money by further
Increasing the displacement by, say,
3 600 tons, and so obtain the cruiser
battleship carryins twelve-inch guns
and attaining twenty-five knots speedS

Whereas, There have been sew
eral hundred tons already baled up-
on reliance that the rate of $500 pei
ton would at least be maintained II
not reduced, and whereas the present
rate nets the hay grower only $500
to 500 per ton at the stack. making
1t impossible to ship should the rate
be increased. The present price of
hay In Portland. $14.00 per ton;
freight, $500: hauling and carrying,
$50; baling. $225: shippers profit
81 30; balance to the farmer, $4.25.
Now therefore Be 1t Resolved.
That the Oregon Short Line Railway
Company be requested to fix and
maintain a rate of not exceeding
$500 per ton on hay, Caldwell to
Portland, beginning at once.
We would add that the business
of raising hay is the greatest single
industry of this vicinity. and that
drring the present crisis any inter
ference that would destroy the mar.
ket for the surplus of this product
would be disastrous.

The above estimate shows that
there Is a monthly deficit of $500.
You will note that the average re-
ceipts from Pool, G Billiards is only
$500 per month. After carefully
discussing this, we are of the opinion
that the revenue from these sources
shOuld and could be increased.
At the beginning of the cold
weather we were unfortunate In not
having sufficient heat. but conditions
in this respect have somewhat i'm
proved, SO that now we usually have
comfortable quarters. If all the
members of the Club would make
this their place for social games,
loafing, and business appointments,
we would soon have a crowd here
that would solve this troublesome
financial question. In addition to
this, We are of the opinion that a
good deal of revenue is lost thru
the Stewards participating In the
games. When he Is playing 1t is
perfectly natural to try and stick
the house, and In many cases this is
| done.
To take concrete example-sup-
| pose the house plays In three games
Of cards and gets stuck for one. This
means an actual loss to the Club. be-
cause the profits on the cigars for
the other two games are not enough
20 cover the cost of the cigars on the
me game lost by the house.
In Pool and Billiards the loss |:
not SO evident but even here, suppose
hree are playing a game of pool, in

Il would have had. We believe tn
loss from this source Is considerable
and that our present dues, togethe
with the revenues which We shoul
derive, are sufficient to pay the run
ming expenses. Therefore, We re
commend that some action be take
In the matter.
This Club is supposed to be go,
arned by set of bylaws but as
matter of fact, they seem To be
dead letter,
We would suggest that the Exec,
Five Committee take them under al
visement and report to the Gu
