THE ALAMEDA
ON HER WAY

The S. S. Alameda got away for San
Francisco at 10 a. m promptly. She
carries % cabin and a number of steer
age passengers, including 16 Hindoos.
Her hold is full of freight, principally
island products.
The passengers to the Coast were
mostly malihinis, the list being re-
markedly devoid of well-known names.
Mrs James NJ. MonsarraU took passage
by the steamer.
Johnny Murphy, the lightweight
boxer was a departing passenger. He
intends to go to Arizona for his health.
Quite a delegation of his friends babe
him aloha at the wharf.
Several colored singers who have
been performing on the ocal circuit
vent away by the Alameda they
sang one of their best-known songs
as the boat was pulling out The
local colored folks were out in force
to give their friends proper send-off.
Christmas Day will be observed on
board the Alameda with all the honors
The cabins will be appropriately de-
corated with greenery and a special
Christmas menu will be served. There
are lots of worse places in which to
spend Christmas Day than aboard the
Alameda.

AS before stated, under present

The immediate loss is 500 people at

The indirect loss is inestimable. DO

GREAT LOSS
Continued from Page oneJ

shortest route covering a distance OF
200 miles, or from five and one--half
to nine days travel under present IA
cilfties.
During the discussion of this topic,
there has been no voice but what has
fully sympathized with the diminishing
merchant marine of the United States
and no soul but what would gladly
rally to it's resurrection.
There is a respected but override
.creasing minority who, from so-called
patriotic ideas, without regard for
results to the community, steadily ar
que for the present drastic laws being
upheld.
The coastwise shipping law was
formulated before there was any prob
ability of it's affecting a populace be-
You'd the original coast lines of the Pa
cific and Atlantic Oceans. At the time
of the consideration of the Act there
were no towns or villages in the Unit
ed States but what could be reached by
railway in lieu of water transportation
available. Such being the case, the
law was both protective and practical,
with no unnecessary personal hard
ships of travel involved.
"One of the minority arguments has
| hn
changed for the benefit of passengers,
the same concession would be asked
in regard to freight. 1t is my firm
belief that practically all voters in fav-
or Of temporary suspension of the
coastwise laws as applying to passen-
gers would, to a man, be antagonistlc
to any concessions from the law as
applying to freight.
1T is further desirable for United
States ship-owners and ship-builders
to be assured that each and every one
of the residents of Hawaii who are
now appealing simply for personal lib
erty of travel, are losing no opportun-
ity of lending their voice for a ship
subsidy
There is no waste so extravagant
as wasted opportunities, and l claim
| to be conservative in my several
times expressed ideas as to what Ha-
wall IS wasting for want of freedom of
travel to or from the Paradise of the
Pacific
Hawaii is a tourist enchantment
during 365 days ofg the year, and there
is no country extant which is as free
from undesirable climatic, or criminal,
elements.
"At the present moment, with Or
binary liberty of travel such as il
granted in all other parts of the civiliz-
ed world, with the present facilities
of fine steamers under foreign flags,
Hawaii would under the most conser-
vative views have an immediate and
continued increase Of at least 500 visit
prs above what can be brought here
unGer the now restricted service.
THE average tourist resort has a
season of from one to three months,
for which reason the caterer natural
ly charges exorbitant rates by which
he can live the balance of the year.
Hawaiis season being from the be-
ginning of January until the last of
December and as the hotels and vend-
ors generally are evenly supported dur
ing that time, the cost of living in
Hawaii is attractive.
From local standpoint, the aver
age traveller to Hawaii, on account OF
the distance, Is liberal spender, and
considering the great number of ex-

If you have never tried it, you
most certainly should, it is the latest
idea in decoration and fancywork.
Stenciling on fabrics gives very pleas
ing results, as you can make such
attractive presents for your friends or
you can beautify your home with
artistic curtains, pillow covers, table
covers, etc.
Stenciling is not hard to do, you
can learn how very easily. The
chief requisite is to get the right
materials to work with - colors that
will be clear and brilliant and will
remain fast in the fabric when it is
washed.
