THEATER COMBINE.

There is a movement on foot, having
as its object the consolidation of all
the picture shows of the city, or OF as
many of them as possible. A good
man is at the head of the proposition,
but, aside from the stockholders OF
other projects, the names of the other
promoters are withheld. 1t is claim
ed that none of the picture theaters
have made much money, owing to the
keen competitions and rivalry between
them; and that some of them have
been running behind for months.
Should the combination be successfully
carried out, one or more of the theaters
would be closed and a uniformity
adopted as to the others in the interest
of dividends.

COMMERCIAL CLUB.

The postponed annual meeting of the
Commercial Club will be held next
Thursday evening, beginning at 1880
O'Clock. Besides the usual business OF
the yearly gathering and the election
of officers, there will be a dinner as a
sort of cap to the occasion.
1t is understood that there will be a
little fun over the election of COVER
nors, there being three tickets in the
field The time of Mr.. Wakefield is
up and some of his friends are urging
his reelection. Other members of the
club insist, however, upon the principle
of rotation in Office. Wakefield's
friends point out, in reply, that George
w Smith and E. H. Paris succeeded
themselves in Office and that their hero
should be likewise honored. The no.
minating committee has thought other
wise, and expressed it's opposition in
a contrary ticket. The result has been
that there is a regular ticket, the Wake
field ticket and another which, for
convenience sake, may be termed the
"Waldron ticket"

TRANSPORTATION.

AS the meeting of the Merchants
Association, which started at 2:30 this
afternoon, the principal topic up for
discussion is that of the attempt of the
authorities of Hilo to prescribe an ex-
traordinary tax upon Honolulu drum
pers.
Another vital matter TO be sprung is
the transportation question. A strong
element in the Association feel that
this important matter should be thresh-
ed out and definite policy adopted
prior to the arrival of the Congress
psonal party in this city. Up to the
present the question has been allowed
to drift, and now that he lawmakers
are at the door it is TO find the COM
munity-not actually divided, perhaps,
but unsettled as to just what is to be
said or done. An effort will be made
this afternoon to reach some definite
conclusion as to the proposals to be
submitted to the Congressman.

FOR MORE HOTELS.

At the meeting of the Promotion
Committee held at headquarters yes
terday afternoon the matter of hotel
accommodations was discussed at
length. Mr.. Bowen, Mr.. Hoogs, Mr..
Wood and others took a strong stand
in favor of suburban hotels. 1t was
admitted that the hotel accommoda-
tions for the city proper were adequate.
Mr.. Hertsche had shown himself to be
fully alive to the situation and Mr..
Alexander Young, it was stated, was
determined to make the Territorial Ho-
tel Company a dependable factor so
far as the city is concerned. 1t is
therefore not the city itself that both
cred the committee so much, but the
matter Of additional accommodations
outside.
In the discussion the committee
placed itself on record, for instance,
in favor of a larger hotel and more
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-08-27

extensive accommodations at Wahiawa,
of a character to attract not only city
people but tourists. The project of a
hotel on Tantalus, to accommodate 30
to 40 persons, was endorsed. Tenta-
tive plans are already being drawn for
such a hotel, and the committee is
looking into the matter Of securing
land for the project The committee
expressed itself as feeling that the
financially strong people of the city
should endorse both the Tantalus and
Wahiawa schemes.
Another idea suggested and endorsed
was that of an apartment house scheme
to meet the requirements of people de-
string accommodations of that char
acter. Undoubtedly this proposition
will be taken up in a substantial and
workable way before long.
