MEN WHO GROW


The ability to make a close study Of

Of farmer is increasflg since the study
Of agriculture has been taken up in
good earnest, and books are being pub

subject
We find young men whose early edu-

are resolutely facing the necessity for
a deeper understanding for the problems
# the soil. Of farm physics, and of
breeding Of both plants and animals.
They do not give up to the clamor Of
their ignorance which says, you can
never understand these things because
you are not educated to it." They
realize that prolonged study win finally
bring light and understanding. If they
run across terms that they do not I'M
derstand, they go to the dictionary and
study there until they do understand
them. 1t is astonishing what progress
men Of ordinary or even deficient edu-
cation can make in mastering an un-
derstandirg of what science has to give,
if they have the proper student spirit
OF study and persistent investigation.
And so we say that this 81 irit is one

visit will prove a mutually profitable
one, there is not the slightest doubt.
For nearly all of us it was an educa-
ton and revelation, and aside from
the friendly sentiments which have re-
suited from our touching elbows with
you, the actual information we have
gathered is bound to bear good fruit
in the matter of intelligent legislation
for the benefit of both the islands and
the whole country. [ do not feel at
this time like making any suggestions
as to what the nature of this legisla-
ton ought to be, but speaking for my
self am frank to say that any legiti-
mate demand which your able and
prudent Representative in Congress,
Prince Cupid, viii see fit to make, will
have my ready and sympathetic sup
port, and in this connection let me
express the hope that he will stand
for reelection as, under the peculiar
circumstances of the case, no man,
white or other, could render the people
the material service he is rendering.

ity which appears to prevail, and upon
their splendid educational facilities

activity. All of this was, as I said
before. revelation to most of us, and
we shall go back to mainland as mis-
sionaries, if I may use this term, to
spread the light about Hawaii and her
people. the charms of her climate and
the certainty of an even greater and
brighter future. For one I do not

tions, will eventually solve themselves.

T feel under the deepest obligations
to the people here, to the commercial
bodies, and particularly to the mem
bers of the press, for the consldera-
ton they have shown us.
AS to the needs of the Hawaiian Is
lands my notion is that the most press
ing need is to give you adequate trans
portation facilities and to give you
harbors, at least one on each island.
AS a member of the rivers and har-
bors committee, I do not hesitate to
say that so far as l am personally
concerned [ shall be glad to further
any interest that / can, consistently
with the interests of the country and
the state of the treasury.
/ favor the suspension of the coast
wise shipping law. At least something
should be done to give the people here
an opportunity to get out of here with
the same ease as they do anywhere
else, because you are more dependent
for every possible means of transporta-
ton, more than where they have rail-
road trains moving out constantly. |
don know but I would favor, in
instead of an absolute suspension of
the law, tax on the ticket sold for
p foreign vessel, or at least reduc-
tion in the fine from 5000 to $25 OF

to remedy the present difficulty.
/ have never been anywhere else
where the people SO impressed me with
the enterprise and push that has been
exhibited all over these Islands, and

see Congress put you in position SO
that the people of the mainland will
know about you.

pressed with your Islands and with
your hospitable people. The trip has

ure and of information to me.
Your present pressing need is more
favorable means in going to and re-
turning from the mainland. You should
have better facilities for the trans
portation of passengers and the prod
ucts of your Islands. Your harbors
should be improved; your lands re-
claimed and irrigated; your Islands
fortified from attacks by either land
or naval forces. The above can be
carried out by Federal aid and appro-
priations. / favor the above. The in
ternal and domestic affairs properly be-
long to the people of the Islands.

g, help in the landable and splendid work
you are doing here.

developing this natural harbor. More

phasis that we have had a most de-
Hghtful visit. Every courtesy and at
tention has been shown us to make
our visit a happy one. Kindness has
been piled upon kindness, and cour-
tesy upon courtesy, until each day has
been crowded full of pleasure and each
succeeding day has new attractions.
We shall always cherish the memory
of the good people of the Islands and
the many sweet friendships proved
here will continually comfort us in the
years to come.
| have been very favorablv impress
ed with the energy, enterprise and
business acumen exhibited in so many
ways on the Islands--a strong and
robust spirit of self-relianee and de-
termination to do for yourselves and
to work out your own salvation. This
is manifested in the great irrigation
works, the fine roads and splendid
schools everywhere to be seen on the
Islands. Success and not failure is
bound to crown the efforts of people
animated and sustained by such spirit
and purpose. You have great prob
lens yet to solve, and it is well you
have. These viii still further engage

/ take it for granted that the elm
pressions which the Commercial Ad

touching the needs of the Islands,
rather than those which concern their
beauties and the things they already

most obvious need of the Territory is
transportation It seems to me there
can be little done in the direction of
developing diversified agriculture and
building up communities of small land
owners, until quick and convenient
communication is established by the
construction of wagon roads, the build
