BUMPER CORN CROP FOR 1909.
Government Report Indicates Har-
vest of Over 5000, 100000 Bushels.

FeSC OF over 3,0OO,0OO, 600 Bushels.
Washington, D. C.-An enormous
crop of corn, probably for the first
time in the history of the country ex-
ceeding 5000, 100000 bushels, is in.
dictated by the monthly report of the
Agricultural Department. Expecta-
tons had been, in view of June's very
favorable weather, for a good report;
and, although it failed entirely to
meet all that had been predicted for
it, the report was considered as gen.
orally fulfilling expectations.
The report on corn had been
awaited with most interest, recent
predictions Of an enormous crop hav-
ing given rise to much speculation as
to the actual outlook for the 1909
harvest. From the Governments fig.
ures it Is figured that crop of g..
161,174,000 bushels is in sight. The
nearest approach to this figure in any
other year was in 1906, when 2.927,.
100000 bushels were harvested.

MARINES ALL
LIKE CORDELL
Boys From Camp Very Expect
to See Dick Sullivan
Defeated.

Excitement over the coming bout be-
tween Sullivan and Cordell is nearing
that old fever point 1t is no exag
geration to say that there is more dis
cussion and more, real, live jingling
noise being made than was ever the
case before in Honolulu when boxing
match was on the posters.
The Marines and some of their
friends have made up a jack pot that
says that Sullivan will not win. They
have been watching Cordell very close
ing with him and so they have gather
ed the idea that Jack can hand it to
Dick
This opinion, backed by their live
noise, was sprung yesterday afternoon
and the various Sullivan hackers who
had stakes lying in the backs of safes,
in the places where such arguments
can be made, soon had everything
covered.
The Marines are also very confident
of the victory of their man Richards
over the big Miller of Fort Shafter.
The soldiers are equally confident and
there have been few wagers made
on this subject. Miller is a larger
man than Richards, but the latter has
been training very carefully and he
feels confident that he can hand it to
the big fellow from the other camp
Dick Sullivan speaks very highly Of
Miller. He says that he may be
rather slow but that he is a very fair
boxer and has a terrific punch. Dick
also states that he is quite sure that
Miller will be able to slip it to the
halfwet kid. Again it may be stated
that this is not the same Miller who
had short and unfortunate argument
with Dick last winter.

Herr Bebel is perhaps the greatest
living exponent of Socialism. He is
man who might be termed
self t. made German mechanic; and
that he is a powerful man is amply
proved by the fact that he leads the
German Socialists his way despite
the keen rivalry of other would-be
leaders. He knows what he is talk
ing about. He has no patience with
froth or subterfuge. When Herr Be-
bel discusses the position of women
as it would be under Socialism he
gives an accurate forecast. No wo-
man can afford not to read Mr. Wat
sons conclusions after the examina-
ton of Herr Bebel's book-which is
a Socialists Bible, SO to speak.
