leased out for varying terms of years
in large tracts. Every year for a gen.
GRAFTON to come leases will expire or
from 1000 to 165, 900 acres, which may
be thrown open for settlement.
Hawaii is about the area of New Jer-
sey, nearly twice the size of Porto
Rico, yet has a population only one
fifth that of the one-time Spanish isle.
In Porto Rico 10 per cent of the people
are supported by the coffee industry,
the holdings averaging nine acres each.
Jared G. Smith, the director of the gov
eminent agricultural experiment sta
ton in Hawaii, who recently resigned tic
start tobacco growing on the big island,
states that with a bounty of five cents
a pound on coffee grown on American
soil, by American labor, more thar
$100, 600, 900 would Immediately be in
vested in coffee culture in Hawaii, and
the characterization of the islands com
pleted within five years. Some 300, O0C
acres would be brought under coffee
cultivation and America supplied with
one-third of the coffee it uses.
This is a startling statement when il
is considered that only $75, 900, 900 is in
vested in sugar in Hawaii. At that il
brings a gross annual return of $4,000
900, and sugar is raised exclusively by
Oriental and Latin labor. The possible
agricultural resources of Hawaii are
scarcely known.

in Van Nordsn Magazine.
1t was Mr.. Fairbanks who declared
to the people of Hawaii, after visiting
their islands and studying the small
farm question:

territory occupied by those whose blood

of our ancestors" This sentiment inn
mediately found an echo in the White
House and in the chambers of the cap

The Federal government proposes at
once to reclaim by irrigation some
100, 900 acres In Hawaii, to be cut up
into 5000 farms of 20 acres each, thus
adding $4,000 American citizens to the
population of the territory, of whom
at least 5000 will be voters. In addi-

organizations Monday night should be preferable to Saturday
night for the celebration. They will then fairly own the streets,
which will be clear of traffic, and they will afford entertainment
for many thousands of people who on Saturday night would be
engaged in shopping and would be seriously annoyed and ineon-
venienced by a celebration. On Monday night the carnival would
be a great public diversion; on Saturday night it would be a
nuisance on our principal thoroughfares. A general understand
ing to devote Monday night to Halloween street festivity will be
evidence of that civic spirit which has always characterized the
Newark community. The clubs can set the example, and they
might make public announcements to that effect. Saturday night
is the wage-eaners' shopping night, and the streets belong to
them. Monday night the streets can be given up to the celebrants
and to jolIity.

WHAT THE TREASURY
BOOKS WILL SHOW

that at the end of the fiscal year the State treasury would have a
free surplus ample for its purposes and independent of any amount
that should be taken from the revenues of the public schools. The
STAR declared that the estimate by the comptroller of the receipts
for the current year was 100000 or more less than the amount
that would be received by the State treasury. We believe that
the comptroneris forthcoming statement will verify the STARS
prediction. In the last annual report by the comptroller estimates
were given to show that the annual appropriations for the fiscal
year 1909 were within about ten thousand dollars of the total re.
sources for the year, and that there were to be added to the appro-
priations the amounts to be voted by the Legislature this year in
the supplemental bill. These latter appropriations foot up about
$4,000. It is now conceded that the comptroners estimate of
the ordinary receipts this year was too low by between 100000
and 100000 There has been an increase in the amount of the
collateral Inheritance tax of about $250O00. These items, with
Others, foot up a net surplus of more than a quarter of a million,
without counting the school revenues taken for State expenses.
which would increase the surplus to about half a million.

NEW YORK CAPITAL
FOR SUBWAYS

spects the decision by the New York Court of Appeals yesterday
sustains the report by General b. +. Tracy, referee, who decided,
after examination, that the city, instead of being within $2,000000
of the debt limit, could spend $1O6O00000. The court cuts the
amount down to $54759646. A constitutional amendment to be
voted on in the November. election eliminates dock and subway
bonds from the computation Of the debt limit, and this amend
ment, If adopted, will add $125 100000 to the amount the city can
borrow, making about $1S0O00O00 available for subways. With
the capital in sight the work Of subway building can be begun
without delay and without waiting upon private enterprise
