GREAT MEETING,
FINE SPEECHES.

There was an immense assemblage
at Aala Park on Saturday night to
hear the visiting statesmen. Unfor~
tunately the vast audience was in
shade owing to the failure of the city
lighting system for lack of water.
There was brilliant illumination OF
the band stand with incandescent bulbs
however, and the interior was also de-
corated with flags. The Hawaiian
band played several numbers before
the speaking began, and on it's retiring
a quintet club took the stand and gave
Hawaiian music between the speeches.
Hon. John G. Lane presided and
among those on the stand were Hon.
W. o. Smith, president ar the Senate,
Mayor j. ]. Fern, Deputy Attorney
General Lorrin Andrews, Deputy Coun-
ty County Attorney F.. w. Milverton,
Republican National Committeeman A.
G. M Robertson, Democratic National
Committeeman G. ]. Waller, members
of the Legislature and Board of Sup
ervisors and several leaders in Re
publican and Democratic local politics.
The visiting speakers were Congress
men Ellis of Oregon, Barchfeld OF
Pennsylvania, Miller of Kansas, Hous-
ton of Mississippi, Watkins of Louisi-
ana, Taylor of Alabama, Prince of IL
linoisc and Gambler of Mississippi.
Delegate Kalanianaole gave short
speech in Hawaiian, and F. w. Beck
ley one in English. Mr.. Beckley was
loudly applauded for his plea for more
aid to the Hawaii Experiment Station
as an establishment to foster diversified
| industries.
There was a separate interpreter for
each visiting speaker and the manner
in which they took long passages and
translated them into the native ton
que was a marvel not merely to the
Congressman but to residents. The
list comprised R. N. Boyd, Fred. w.
Beckley, Eli ]. Crawford, Senator w.

LABOR DAY BUSY
ON WATERFRONT
ONE VESSEL ARRIVED YESTER-
DAY AND THREE TODAY-THE
TRANSPORT DIX'S RECORD TRIP

Local waterfronters have been spec
ulating for some time past on the
probability of Monday, Labor Day, be-
ing a dull day along the front. They
were disappointed and for number
of them Labor Day has turned out to
be a labor day in all verify.
There have been no less than four
arrivals since yesterday morning; the
ship Falls of Clyde, the transport Dix,
the schooner G. w. Watson and the
bark S. G. Allen.
The American ship Falls of Clyde
arrived yesterday afternoon from Ga
yiota with cargo of fuel oil She
went to the railway wharf as usual.
Her master is Captain Engalls. The
trip from Gaviota was made in four
teen days and the finest kind of wealth
er was experienced The ship will
probably sail for Gayiota tomorrow af-

weahaku and David Kanuha.
All of the speakers passed eloquent
panegyrics upon Hawairs scenery
climate, hospitality and progress.
There was unanimity of promise to AID
in making Oahu the strongest mill
tary and naval position on earth. AL
most equally unanimous was the de-
nunciation of the coastwise regulations
as making Honolulu unduly insulated.
That this Territory should be peopled
with a citizen yeomanry, among whom
the land should be portioned, was
doctrine prominent in many speeches.
Mr.. Miller caused Almost a sensation
by reading the riot act for the benehL
of Japanese in these islands who held
themselves above the laws of the ma
ton.
Mr.. Taylor, announcing himself as
born Democrat Notwithstanding
Chairman Lanes inhibition of politics,
made a striking address. Following
the example of preceding speakers in
narrating history, he said that the
destruction of the American merchant
marine since the war of the rebellion
was due to the mismanagement of the
parties in power since then. One OF
his most telling remarks was when
he said that the energy which exter-
minated the leaf hopper here in two
years ought to be equal to abolishing
the human disease that was diminish
ing the native population.
Mr.. Houston's address was a piece
of finished oratory, His tribute to
the attractions of Hawaii would make
good promotion literature, as would
some of the nuggets of praise dropped
by other speakers.
1t was .close to midnight before the
last speaker concluded, yet the only
diminution of the concourse until the
last was caused by the departure OF
those living far out to catch their
last cars.

THE SCHOONER WATSON.

The American schooner G. w. Wat
son arrived this morning and tied up
at the Allen wharf. She came down
from Aberdeen, Washington, in 2S
days and brought $4,000 feet of lum-
Der for Allen & Robinson.
Captain T. w. Stream, who is ac-
companied by his wife and child, is
making his first visit to Honolulu for
nine years When last here he was in
the transport service.
A fine trip was experienced and all
aboard had fairly lazy time.
THE BARK ALLEN.
The American bark S. G. Allen ar
rived this morning, seventeen days
from Eureka, with G5S,0OO feet of red
wood consigned to Alleh & Robinson.
She lies at the Allen wharf outside the
schooner G. w. Watson.
Veteran Captain Willer reported an
exceptionally fine and uneventful trip
from the north. Captain Willer has
had the bark for over four years and
is one of the best liked shippers who
come to this port
THE TRANSPORT DIX.
The u s. army transport Dix from
Seattle arrived this morning after
fine trip of nine and a half days, one
of the best runs she has ever made
here. She went to the new Alakea-
street wharf, Captain Ankers stated
that the weather between Seattle and
this port was the finest he has expert
enced in his thirty years on the sea.
The transport, which leaves for Ma
MALTA at noon tomorrow, has aboard
1859 horses and mules, 4 thoroughbred

VISITED

Kauai is now entertaining the male
members of the Congressional Party.
About 10 o'clock last night the S. s.
Mauna Kea took them aboard, to-
gether with a lot of Honolulu folk
selected for the occasion, and hurried
them to the Garden Island where they
are being automobiled and entertain
ed and will be back in Honolulu again
tomorrow morning, with just chance
to change their collars and be joined
by their wives and others of the Con-
gressional party before going out again
in the same boat for Hilo and the vol
cano.
From the decks of the Mauna Kea
the Congressman beheld the beautiful
shores of Kauai, thus getting a good
glimpse of the isle before landing. On
Kauai they are being introduced to
the development of the country and
the various industrial processes and
progress.
Nawiliwil was reached at daybreak
and the party was taken in autos to
see the windward side of the island,
over to Hanafei
The steamer was to be met at Ha-
nalei and Waimea was the next port
of call.
Lunch is served at Gays and trip
is made from Waimea to Lihue in au'
tomobiles. Supper at Lihue and
reception, then departure for Homo
lulu, reaching here tomorrow morning.
H. D. Wishard, chairman, Charles
A. Rice, w. H. Rice, Jr., w. D. NC
Bryde, Francis Gay, ]. opio and G. X
Kahee comprise the Kauai reception
committee.
The Hawaiian band will attend the
departure of the party from this port
for Hawaii tomorrow and there is ex-
pected to be a great gathering on the
wharf making the unusually pictures

more interesting.
where when he is around.
familiar face is missing aboard
the transport this trip. Chief Engl-
neer Murphy has left the ship after
being with her Tor six years, his place
being taken by ]. d, Hanover. Old
Man Murphy, as he was affectionately
called, was beloved by all aboard the
Dix. He was father to the skinners
and members of the crew and his ad-
vice was frequently sought and always
kindly given. For years the same
crowd stayed by the Dix out of sheer
love of being associated with CHIEF
Murphy Captain Ankers has also had
the Dix for six. years, and another six
yearer is DIR, Ferguson. There are 80
all told in the ships company.
Not a single heal of stock was lost
coming from Seattle. This is nothing
wonderful, however, when 1t is taken
into consideration that in five and
half years the Dix has only lost half
of one per cent of all stock put aboard
her, a unique record in the stock
transport line and one Of which Cap
tain Ankers has just cause to feel
proud. AT chat most of the stock lost
were either sick or injured when put
aboard.
The Dix has a new tail shaft, a new
hub and a couple Of new blades this
trip.

THE SEWER PLAN.

The Muscular heard yesterday
nothing but commendation of the
plans for the proposed sewer system
and of the manner in which they
were presented at the council meet
ing Monday night. Engineer Swear
ingen has prepared the preliminary
work on the sewer system in a man
ner which marks him as an expert
well qualified To carry through the
construction to successful issue.
There is no question as To the practi-
cal unanmity OF opinion In Missoula
regarding the necessity which exists
for the construction of a municipal
sewer system which will be adequate
70 meet the needs Of growing city,
and will provide for demands which
NAV be made in the future. The sur
veys for the system on the north side
of the river have been carefully
made; the specifications are detailed
and complete: as soon as legal techni-
calities have been complied with, the
construction work may be taken up:
ut the same time the plans for the
south side will be prepared; by spring
IL will be possible to start work on
both sides of the river. and Mr..
Swearingen says the system can be
completed in a year.

TOO HIGH.

The interesting deduction IL made
by Henry Clews in his weekly finan-
ciai letter that the present high price
conditions in trade must soon be mod
flied. The veteran financier says that
the stock conditions are good except
that the cotton speculation has car
ried the price OF that commodity too
high and that the manipulation OF
copper values is likely To breed trou-
BILE. He concludes:
I'm many respects the general out
look is very satisfactory. and owing
Ia the uncqualed prosperity of the ag-
ricultural classes the promises are for
al least another year or two Of good
business. ON the other hand II must
not be forgotten that the country il
working upon an abnormally high
price level: that interest rates are
permanently higher: that the specula-
tive mania Is difficult TO control. and
that our prosperity Is very unevenly
distributed ana decidedly iop-sided.
Some process Of equalization IL due.
and just how this will come cannot
be predicted. The steel trade cannot
keep up It's present activity indefi-
niteiy. neither can the cotton indus
try go on without some relief to its
present difficulties. Time alone will
solve these problems. but they are
sufficiently complex to warrant
spirit of caution In all commercial and
financial transactions affecting the
future. One effect of present high
prices Is the growing substitution or
adulteration Of one material by an
other of inferior grade or less cost.
Short weights and short measures.
too. are often resorted to in order to
squeeze out a profit which high costs
prevent Our center of gravity has
been raised too high. and lasting sta
bility cannot be expected until equali-
zation has restored the equilibrium
and prices generally come down to u
less speculative level"

erty at the appraised price.

lance of the peEitentiary. where pru-
duce for the prison can be raised

A recommendation is made that pris-
oners be provided with employment
