A member Of the House of Com
mons, a few weeks ago, said that
there had been ninety-two murders
in the city of London since January,
1904. This would be on an average
Of not more than nineteen murders
a year in a population of about five
millions. 1t is common for our
American cities to boast Of the rapid
ty of their growth and the splendor
Of their civilization, but it might be
we'll for them to compare their muir
der statistics with those of London.
Our cities, with less than half the
population Of London, will have to
confess to a larger number of muir
ders. The quick and inevitable death
penalty following murder in England
and the facility Of escape Of the death
penalty in America is an explanation
Of the difference,-The Winona

However, the banks should not be

that the silver dollar is now worth
only 40 cents in the markets. But,
what Of that? Is the paper in
paper dollar worth as much as 40
cents? Is the nickel in a Scent
piece worth 5 cents? The metal
value of a silver dollar may be only
40 cents, but its face value, its pur-
chasing. value, it's bank value, its
treasury value-which certainly
ought to determine its "intrinsic"
value-is 100 cents. We would certain
ly ask for nothing more than that

there is only 40 cents worth of silver
in a silver dollar or what the in
trinsic value Of the paper is that our
paper money is made Of, for we have
made special arrangements with our
creditors to accept them at their face
value. If you are due this paper
dollar, you are hereby notified that
we will take any old dollar that you

we get caught on the 40-cent variety,
you will not be to blame. Bring on

ROOT AND THE TRUSTS.

IF Secretary Root is sent to the
Senate, the Trusts will have no cause
to complain, as he has never fought

thing that can save the people is to
abolish the Senate. The establish
ment of two houses was a great mis-
take committed by the founder Of
the Republic. But in initiating the
mother country, in many things they
unfortunately had to have something
similar to the House of Lords. If we
would take from the President his
appointing power and do away with
the Senate it would do more to Grip
pie the power of corporations than
anything else.-The Polk County

WILL THE TARIFF BE RE-
VISED?

When two such stalwart Republi-
cans as Andrew Carnegie and James
j. Hill declare, the one for tariff for
revenue only and the other for free
trade with Canada. there is cause for
sensational alarm in the camp Of the
standpatters and the tariff benefciar-
les. The committee of Congress who
are holding daily sittings for investi-
cation of the tariff, for the purpose
of reporting to Congress at the spe-
cial session to be held after March
4 next, have been entertained by the
one-sided view Of the tariff benef-
Charles, and because the mass Of con-
sumers never have chance at such
hearings to present their side, it be-
gan to look as though there was but
one side and the dreams of tariff re-
formers were taking on the usual
gloomy cast The Republican party
was beginning to rub it's hands and
assure the country that the tariff was
well enough as it is and that there
was no real demand for keeping it's
promises of revision, when the can
ny Andrew let fly his bomb that the
industries Of the country were no
longer infants and could get along
with little if any protection, espe-
cially the steel trust and the oil
trust. Then came forth Mr. Hill, the
greatest railroad authority in the
country, with the startling view that
we need closer relations with Cana
da and that reciprocity in the way
Of lowering of tariff duties was de-
manded. Following closely on these
statements comes the announcement
that President-eect Taft demands
that the revision Of the tariff be
real one in the shape Cf radical re-
duction of duties and that war is to
be made on Speaker Cannon and
other congressional standpatters, if
need be, to keep the promises of the
Republican platform. Truly there
are things happening that inspire
hope in the hearts Of the dishearten-
ed believers in lower duties. The
Democratic party has been defeated
at the election, but the main issue in
which it has fought so many cam
paigns seems to live. Tariff for pro-
lection that has bred trusts and in
creased the cost Of living beyond the
average mans means, may yet have
to give way to the Democratic doc
trine of tariff for revenue and trust
made articles on the free list. The
campaign of education that has been
waged by the Democratic party at
the expense of its chances of victory
may yet bear fruit.-The Dover

ened with long trains of smoke from
the mills or pumping stations. 1t IS the
change from sleep to life.
McBryde is the latest addition to the
life of southern Kauai. Dreier's Eleele
plantation occupied a little of the
broad space now taken with the cane
fields, mills and villages of this young
enterprise. Everybody knows the story
of how McBryde was formed and
launched, but not so many are aware or
the accomplishment. 1t is on the same
basis of solid permanency as the Ha-
waiian Commercial for it owns its elev-
en- or twelve thousand acres in fee. 1t
does not have to bend its neck to the
ofttimes naughty landlord. 1t has more
than five thousand acres of splendid
cane land, thousands of acres of pasture
and it's holdings run back into the deep
recesses of the mountains, so that it
controls many of it's water heads and
what is of equal Importance, can and
does preserve and conserve the forests,
which make the sponge to hold back
and slowly give up the vast rainfall of
the far off mountains. If it can get
more water, then it will have more land
for cultivation, because much of its
pasture is fine arabic soil. But Me-
Bryde is wise, and recently gave up
sixteen hundred acres of good land in
the foothills for thousand acres lower
down where its lines of ownership were
broken. But what of the sixteen hun
bred acres? Well, the government cut
it into homesteads and now a hundred
families are happily and contentedly
settled there with church, school and
postoffice, all their own. They have a
eannery at hand also, and find ready
sale for all of their products. And the
surrounding country is better off, too,
because fresh vegetables, potatoes and
other eatables can be had where none
were before. The men, too, can always
get work, when not otherwise engaged,
on the various plantations nearby. Per
haps McBryde's directors thought of
strikes and good labor supply always
at hand when they made the exchange;
who knows? But the homestead set
tlement would not have made the quick
and sure success it has, had it not been
for the ever ready tact and kindly as
sistance Of Mr.. Walter McBryde, who
lives nearby and whose aid and advice
are freely given to settlers at all times.
They have dubbed him their E'pad-
rone.''
But to come back to the plantation.
The basis and foundation for the mill
and sugar works, was the plant con-
structed for the American Sugar Com
pany of Moiokai. Tt was one of the best
in the country on it's arrival and it was
lucky for that concern that McBryde
was ready to take it. It has proved
among the best in the Islands, and
whenever other parts of the works are
extended, it will fulfill its promise of
80 tons of sugar day. The works are
compact, convenient and comfortable,
and what is quite as important, are
very economical, making sugar at as
low cost as the best and far cheaper
than many.
The great need at McBryde has been,
and still is, water. 1t was because of
this need that the chic owners of the
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1909-12-05

concern some time ago organized the
Kauai Electric Company and installed
the fine plant in Wainiha which now
supplies power at McBryde for pump
ing There is still plenty Of unused
power and development of water is
steadily proceeding in the valleys and
eorges near the plantation. To one
unacquainted with water DEVELOPMENT
the system is most interesting and the
impression at once gained of a bold
and far reaching faith. A large pit, or
"sump.' is excavated. As it goes
down, down into the depths, the water
which pours in is pumped OFT and the
sides are cemented so that all danger
of collapse is eliminated. A pit we ex-
amined in the Hanapepe valley is over
10 feet deep. It's bottom IS about for
Nv feet below sea level. From that
point tunnels, generally about six feet
high and four feet wide, are run about
horizontally into the solid rock. Water
pours from the sides and roof into the
tunnel and thence is conducted into the
main pit or "sump," where 1t is lifted
nv, powerful electric pumps, two. three,
four and sometimes nearly FIVE hundred
feet TO the surface of the land adjoin-
ing the valley. There it performs its
benefcent mission of watering the cane
fields and paying for the labor and
faith which produced those fine rivers
out of the bowels of the earth. Perhaps
this is the method which is to save the
earth's surface from becoming a parch-
ed desert, like the moon, and Mars per-
haps. At any rate it is working sue
cessfully at MeBryde and other places
en- the Islands. Down there it begins
to look as though they win soon have
all the water they require, and per-
haps some to furnish less fortunate
neighbors, for pumping is at its mini
mum cost there.
Then these bold McBrydans had to
tackle the transportation question and
the Kauai Railroad Company was born
and begins to spread it's iron rails from
place to place; all to gather The increas-
ing products of southern Kauai to Port
Allen, which is another victory for
their wisdom and skill For where
there was a sunny sand beach only a
few years ago, there is now a busy
port, with a breakwater, wharves, ware
houses, hosting machinery and all the
other paraphernalia of prosperous bust
ness. It is all very interesting and
seems like witchery, only you know
that it is mans work, the result of
ability, skill and boundless faith in
the future of Hawaii. Down there one
is impressed, too, with the evidences
of care for the comfort of the so-ealled
common laborer. He is evidently to
have his innings and share of the pros
perity near at hand. In that neighbor-
hood, one hears the name of Kinney in
connection with all this growth and
promise, and they say that to him is
largely due the things which are to dis.
tribute, not to concentrate, the fruits
of labor and capital combined.

Kauai Revisited

Things look different on Kauai after
shirty- five years absence. Then few
green cane fields marked the K0loa
plantation, while it's modest mill,
shgreh or two and few houses com
prised the quiet village. Beyond lay
che long grassy sweeps and rolling hills
Of Laval. Eleele, Maxwell, Waimea,
and beyond, the narrowing plain of Ke-
kaha, till the frowning bluffs of Napali
anwsred above the ocean. AS far as the
pve could reach, the pastures were dot
aed with herds browsing on the sweet
grasses. An occasional rider passed
slowly along the road, breaking the
wide silence with hoofbeats- On one
side the ocean tapped lazily, famed by
Ahe breath of the trade winds; on the
sther, the varied hilltops, sometimes
forest capped, in other places barren
aad abrupt, made jagged horizon line.
Now, from KolOa to Kekaha stretches
an almost unbroken band of bright
green fields of cane belonging to the
Mcbride, Makaweli, Waimea and Re
kaha plantations. But the same blue
ocean and beautiful mountains line the
fields, only the forest line has receded,
and villages, farms, mills and railroads
have taken the place of the quiet herds
Of cattle and horses. The low bass OF
mill whistles and resounding shrek of
engines, have hanished the peaceful
quiet of yore. In place of the hoofbeat
IS now heard far more often the honk
Of the automobile. or the crack of
whip and cry of the mule driver. The
once grassy plains are now silver-lined
with streams of water, taking life to
