LLOYD CH|LDS WILL
LEAVE ON ALAMEDA

Lloyd Childs, who has been gathering
and arranging Hawaii's exhibit for the
Alaska a-Yukon-Pacific exposition, will
leave for the Coast on the Alameda
next Wednesday, taking with him q
layge part of the exhibit on that steam-
er. w. L. Pope is leaving on the
Lurline today and with him are going
the relief maps of the Hawaiian Islands,
which will be placed in a huge tank
in Hawaii s building.
Definite word has just been received
to the effect that the transport Dix, ON
which it was proposed to send the entire
exhibit to Seattle, sailed from Naga-
saki for Honolulu ON the 26th. 1t is
understood that she will lay over at
this port for several days, SO that the
time of her arrival at the Queen City
will nearly coincide with the opening
day of the exposition. On account of
this fact, Childs is taking the school
exhibit with him on the Alameda.
Mr.. King will accompany Childs on
the Alameda to superintend the in
stallation of the school exhibit Childs
has received word from the War De-
partment that but four attendants may
take passage on the Dix. One of these
will be Guy Rothwell, the local athlete,
who will look after the Hawaiian surf
canoes which are to be sent to Seattle.
1t is possible that Rothwell may take a
concession from the Fair authorities and
run an outrigger canoe ferry ON the
pleasant waters of Lake Washington.
The outrigger canoes will be decided
innovation in the Northwest and will
undoubtedly attract considerable atten-
tion. One of DIR. Wallis fine koa suffers
will go up in the Dix.
Five Hawaiian girls will go to Seattle
later to serve dainty dishes of pineapple
in Hawaii's building. The names of
these lucky ones have not yet been Civ
en- out. Childs has the greater part of
the exhibit in this city now Some of
it has already been, and the remain
der, is ready to be, packed for ship
ment.

THW|NG TELLS OF
CHANCE IN CHINA

Rev E. W. Thwing, who now repre-
sents the International Reform Bu-
reau as secretary for China and Japan,
tells Of his recent trip to Peking, and
the surprising changes and develop
ments now taking place in that EN-
pire's capital.
A dozen years ago the roads were
so bad that man might fall from
his donkey by the roadside and be
drowned. Now there is a new sewer
age system. The roads are fine, many
of them are macadamized. At one
place four big American steam rollers
were at work. City waterpipes are
being laid. Telegraphs and telephones
are all over the city. The demand for
telephones is so great that the com
pany is now some hundred orders be-
hind the demand Fine foreign car
riages are used extensively, the Prince
Regent taking one in his daily trips
to the palace. The railway pierces n
portion of the city wall. One of the
largest automobiles can now be secur-
ed in the city for about $40 per day.
A railroad goes north to the Imperial
tombs. The people are, as rule, very
friendly. Chapels and schools are full.
There is indeed new Peking coming
into existence. The great campaign
against opium has made reform very
popular. High officials and scholars, as
well as the people, are much interested.
Special arrangements were made for
addresses to the students at the capital.
His EXcellency Ling, the Governor of
Peking, made call on Mr.. Thwing
while there. He is a very bright and
capable official from Canton.
An opportunity was also had of eN-
planning the mission and prospects of
the Reform Bureau to II. |. II. the
Prince Regent, several other Imperial
princes and great number of high
Chinese officials, from whom he receiv-
ed much kindness and encouragement.
A long special interview was accorded
Mr.. Thwing by II. /. II. Prince Kung,
who presides over the work of the Anti
Opium Bureau in Peking, His Imperial
Highness, fine, intelligent-looking
man of twenty nine, is cousin of the
Prince Regent. He expressed great
interest in the campaign against
opium, liquor and cigarettes, and he
and II. |. II. Prince Su said they were
| extremely pleased with all they had
heard regarding the work of the Inter
national Reform Bureau. Indeed, the
latter wrote a special honorifc scroll
for the bureau and arranged that Mr.,
Thwiug should leture at the College for
Manchus. Mr.. Thwing had also the
privilege of lecturing at the Imperial
University aud other colleges in the
capital.
Mr.. Tony All Lo, from Honolulu, is
one of the professors in this Uni
versity.
Mr.. Thwipg expects to return in
September to Peking and will have
his headquarters there.

DR.. PARDEE COMMENDS
HAWAII CONSERVATION

DIR. George C. Pardee, formerly Gov
ernor of California, is interested in
the work of conservation and develop
ment of resources that is being under
taken in this Territory.
Superintendent OF Public Works
Marston Campbell has received lei-
ter from DIR. Pardee in which he ex-
presses his approval of the movement
that has gained many supporters in
the Islands, and commends the wis
dom of those who have recognized the
necessity of following out in Hawaii
the mainland ideas that have come to
be regarded as a movement OF nation
al Importance, with great benefits for
the future of the country
DR. Pardee has always been inter-
ested in the welfare of Hawaii" said
Mr. Campbell yesterday, "and as he is
recognized as one of the most progress
i've advocates of the conservation idea,
his words of commentator should
mean much to those of us who are
interested in the conservation of our
resources.

HAWAIIAN PINES ARE
ADVERTISING ISLANDS

]. ]. Egan, who has been away from
the Islands for nearly a year, return
ed yesterday on the Alameda, glad to
be home, and brimful of interesting
stories of his travels. He found that
the Hawaiian pineapple was doing its
share in making the Islands known
all over the mainland and that the
delicious product of Wahiawa, Pupu-
kea and Haiku was rapidly becoming
a fixture on the lists of mainland
housewives. In Boston he had no diff
ficulty in buying some canned pines
from Hawaii and partook Of them on
the table of his sister.
THE Hawaiian pineapple is being
well advertised on the mainland and
in turn the pineapple itself is adver-
tising the Islands," said Mr.. Egan yes
terday. 81 found the pines on sale in
many cities. And when you taste the
pine over there right out OF the cans,
ii certainly is a delicious dessert. 1t
is right up to standard, and, of
course, beats all others. If the adver-
tising of the Hawaiian pine is kept up
for a year longer, it will drive all
others from the field that is, If people
want only a first-class article.
81 met many people who had heard
of the Islands but wanted to know
more, and when they found was from
Honolulu I was pressed for all sorts
of information. l was struck with
the frequency of one expression of
people who spoke to me about the Is
lands, and that was: That is the one
trip that want to make That was
especially true of the Eastern people,
who apparently want some other place
to go to in the winter season than
Florida and the West Indies"
Mr.. Egan is certain from all the in
formation he could get hold of while
in Washington that the present Ad-
ministratlon is most friendly in its at
titude toward Hawaiian interests.

YOU WILL NOT

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty everybody
knows; but it is seldom or never
that any large business house is
guilty of them, no matter what
line of trade it follows. There
can be no permanent success of
any kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief, as they deserve.
Nowmany persons are, neverthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum

are they slow to place confidence

merits of medicines. The eifec-

.KUH|O FORESEES A
MENACE FROM JAPANESE

LOS ANGELES, April 21.-"Asi-
atics now are great aids to the develop
ment of Hawaiian resources, but ten
years from now they will have become
a menace"
So says J. Kuho Kalanianaole bet

Hotel Alexandria.
"Hawaiians and Americans will not
work in the field as laborers," said he,
"and so Asiatics are the only means
the Hawaiian capitalists have of de-
veloping the islands. If the American
tariff were higher ii would result in
the Americanizing of Hawaii, but as
it is, all encouragement possible to
many nationalities has been given,
without its resulting in other than an
influx of Asatic labor. In ten years
Hawaii will have to face the problem
of dealing with the children of the
Asiatics. These children now are in
the majority in the schools, and when
they become of age they will be citi-

(Aiail Special 90 the Advertisof)
WASHINGTON, April is.--It is be-
l.eved here by friends of Postmaster
Pratt that eventually his renomina-
ton to the offlce at Honolulu VIII be
made. Delegate Kalanianaolc lust be
fore he started for California, the
other day. visited the Postoflice De.
partment to inquire about the matter.
"They tell me at the department" /"
said he just following his visit, that
the postoffice inspector at Honolulu
has entered charges of incompetency
against Mr.. Pratt l think 1t is n
shame"
Postmaster General Hitchcock says
he intends to take the case up soon
and see what can be done. 1t is un-
derstood that the charges of the in
spector are based almost solely upon
the delinquencies of one of Postmas-
ter Pratts employees. who. as was dis
closed some time ago, had been in the
habit OF opening letters from the de-
partment and Withholding them, so
that much of the departments i'm
portant mail to the postmaster did not
reach him. Postmaster General Hitch
cock has said that he thought post.
master ought not to be blamed for any
such delinquency Of his subordinate.
The Delegate has gone to California,
where he win tarry for a time at some
health resort and then proceed to Ho-
nolulu. He has had bad cold, which
threatened to develop into grip, and
was somewhat alarmed at this, where
upon he thought It best to seek some
warmer and more congenial climate.
Before his departure he and Mr..
George b. Mcclellan saw Secretary of
the Treasury MacVeagh regarding the
erection of the new Federal building
at Honolulu. Secretary MacVeagh
told them he expected to be able to
have competitive plans prepared for
that building and would try to ar
range it that way. This is understood
here to be in accord with the wishes
OF Honolulu people in the matter
Something like fifteen applications
from Honolulu and. Hawaiian aspi-
rants for the supervisor of census in
the Territory have been received by
the Delegate. No appointment, how
ever, will be made for two or three
months vet. The place will pay only
about $1,000 year-considerably less
than some of the applicants appear to
have thought it would pay. The basis
of pay is the population of the juris-
diction in which the supervisor is
serving, and If the population of Ha-
wall turns out to be about 100000, as
is probable, the supervisors salary
will be approximately $500
There is but little news about tariff
schedules of particular interest to Ha
wall Mr.. Mcclellan says there is
some chance of the House rates or
pineapples being restored in some part
by the Senate. 1t seems that the FL

special reference to the merits of the
case and without material considera

as much as possible. There was moi

The Legislature of 1907 was quite
generous in its appropriations for hos

allowances for the carrying out of the
