due from other banks has been reduc-
ed, depreciation has been allowed for

crease in keeping with the gradual and
steady business of the town. Zeno K.
Myers, auditor of the bank, said be
fore sleaving Hilo on Monday:
THE First Bank of Hi1o with a paid
up capital of $142, 500, is doing a BUSH
ness that would ordinarily be done by
a bank of $25, 900 capital, the latter of
course being enabled to earn the larger
dividends for it's stockholders. The
HiIo bank has fully as large a proper
ton of cash to it's deposits as any
bank in the Territory"
Besides the capital already mention

STOLE A CHECK.
Koakano opeka is in jug again. +

Koakano Opeka is in jug again. He
has been there before, but Jail and
jail life are apparently congenial
things to him. He came into the Lii
hue store the other day with a check
drawn by Chas. Makee as trustee for
the Wainiha Hui in favor of Kuai He
lemoku. Kuai hadn't endorsed the
paper, but the clerk to whom he APP
piled to get it exchanged for coin was
in hurry and did not notice this fact.
At night when the clerks turned in
the cash for the day it was discovered,
however, that the seven dollars had
been obtained in a rather irregular
manner. Sheriff Rice Immediately sur
missed who the author of the deal was,
and one of the clerks had seen Opeka
in the coffee shop treating a number
of lady friends, although he was
known not to have done any work for
a few months. District Magistrate
Dole, on the case coming before him,
sentenced Opeka to one years impris-

full treasury and under the neces-

declared a dividend of $14 share. And
ever since the treasurer, manager and
the board of directors have been
wrestling with the problem of paying
this dividend, for it is not as simple
a proposition as might be supposed.
Originally there were seventy-one
shares, but these original shares have
changed hands and been split up so
finely and so variously that they are
very elusive and hard to manage. One
company controls shares and fractions
of shares SO heterogeneous that only
after long and profound study can they
be added on the basis Of a common

THE LOCAL W. c. T. u. GOES
FOR THE ARMY CANTEEN
The Temperance Argument Against Again Per
hitting the Sale of Beer in the United
States Military Garrisons.

A most interesting meeting of the
w. c. T. U. was held yesterday after
noon, the subject being "The Army
Canteen. The following paper was
prepared and read by Mrs. G. III. futile
and a very interesting discussion fol
lowed, members taking up both sides
of the question. The preponderance~ef
/ sentiment was decidedly in favor of
the anSi-Canteen law with the hope
expressed that Congress win soon make
use of the two million dollars appro-
prited to put up buildings and furnish
them for the accommodation of the
Post Exchange:
THE ARMY CANTEEN.
The army canteen, according to Gen.
Daggett, retired army officer, original
ed in the then Territory of Washington
in 1882 and was founded to prevent
men going outside the garrison for
amusement. It was peerless eanteen,
furnished comfortably and prettily by
the army women. 1t was sort of club
room in which the men could gather TO
play games or read newspapers and
magazines and had the effect of keep
ing the better class within the garrison.
Other similar organizations were form
ed by commanders who heard of the
success of the first one. The name
!" canteen' was given for lack of a.
better one. In 1886 the first beer can
teen was established. The result was
that men went to the canteen and
drank beer till more or less under its
influence and then went outside and
drank something stronger.
In considering the canteen question,
many people believe that it is simply
a choice between two evils. Many
argue that without beer in the canteen,
the boys are sure to leave the camp
and go somewhere to find it and in
stead of getting only beer, they get
stronger drinks and all other evil things
that go hand in hand with it.
It stands to reason that the more
difficult it is to find the liquor, the less
will be drunk.
Records show that it is mostly coun-
try boys who enlist, boys who have been
unaecustomed to the saloon and its
kindred evils and know very little of
them. These boys are easily influenced
and very sensitive to ridicule and are
almost sure to accept drinks and treat
with drinks to avoid being laughed at.
Does it seem reasonable that these boys
would be so apt to acquire the drink
habit if they had to go mile or a
mile and half to procure it as they
would if it were constantly in sight
But after he has formed the taste for
drinks, the more he sees of it the more
he wants. It is like the small boys
and the watercoo1er in the railroad
train. Place him beside the water

he wants to drink about every seven
minutes all the afternoon. But if he |

pared to urge the instructing of the

allow to the substitution Of the resolu-
tion Of the preference.

DECLINE BRYAN COMPROMISE
Johnson Men Will Not Agree to
Support Nebraskan.
Governors Adviser Says His Posi-

Worry.

st. Paul, April 30.-In answer to pro-
posals of compromise, emanating from
supporters OF Gov. Johnson, friends of
Bryan have submitted statement of the
group on which they are willing 10 get
together"
The Bryan proposition is this:
To give Johnson the complimentary
vote at the Denver convention. To make
this an openly complimentary vote and
nothing else. To have the delegation made
up OF Bryan supporters. and TO have it
generally understood that when Bryan
shah need twenty-five votes TO come
within twO-thIrds Of the majority OF the
Denver gathering. he viii know that IN
the Minnesota delegation he has them
This decision was reached some time ago
and thrown over by tile johnson men
upon the advice Of Frank A. Day, John
sons private secretary and political ad-
wiser.
Bryan men here to-day said that this
was the only basis upon which they
would compromise. Il is understood that
Mr.. Day is opposed to any such plan. for
the reason that 1t might give the appear
ance Of defeat and surrender outside, and
for the further reason that il would take
away the control of the Democratic or
ganization from his hands and make T. 7.
Hudson succeed himself as national COM
mitteeman.
\ leading Minneapolis man to-day said
that offers OF compromise had come from
the Johnson men for a settlement Of the
trouble in Hennepin County on the basis
that the county strength Of IL votes be
given the Bryan men in the organization
Of the convention, but that the johnson
men be given one of the delegates.
This offer. IL is understood, will be re-
jected
Frederick Day takes the position that
all offers Of compromise are coming from

men have the State five TO one. and he
can see no reason for a compromise under
