Of an evening well spent. This was
no exception to the general rule.

FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.

One hears q good deal about the power
Of the press. but the fact is that no
newspaper has very much real power
over men or events in these days unless
it isaknown to be standing sanely and
steadfastly for the welfare of the whole
community and nation. The day of
party organs is past. Sensational papers
appealing to popular passions cannot
move. thoughtful men-the men who
make history. The only kind of news
paper that really has tremendous power
in these days is the Independent, re-.
liable .disinterested journal of wide cir
culation. whose columns are known to
stand always for the general good-for
public honesty and a square deal what
e happens. An excellent example of
this sort Of journalism is THE CHICAGO
RECORD-HERALD..I It has the enormous.
circulation that d~eservedly goes with
the printing Of all the news. but its
power lies in its wise conservative. in
dependent editorial policy. which lis
shaped with one sole end in view-the
public good. Its news and CRITICAL.
columns show the same spirit. 1t is an
ideal paper for the. home.

The quantity Of each sample of grain
sent should not be less than one-half the
size of the ordinary bundle of grain and
should be carefully tied so as. to prevent
it getting it damaged. There should be
a full bundle of flax, alfalfa and clover.
These grains and grasses should be
carefully packed in large boxes, with
sufficient openings to permit plenty of
air to circulate through, so as to pre-
vent the grain from becoming heated or
mold while in transit.
The larger the variety, the more
value is attached to it. Extreme care
should be used in selecting. arranging
and packing each exhibit.
The department will simply take the
exhibit from the boxes and display it,

the contestants and the counties in
which the exhibit was gathered.
It may prove advantageous to the ex-
hibitor to have the wheat, oats, barley,

OAHU AGAIN HAS
LIVELY MORNING

The leading feature on the Stock
Exchange this morning was the activ-
ity of Oahu. There seemed to be q
good deal of the stock for sale, but
buyers were equally in evidence.
Although there seemed to be slight
decline towards the last, the street
market for the stock is still quite
strong.
The first sales were at $3.50, a to-
tai Of go shares, in two blocks, chang
ing hands Then came blocks of %,
80, so, 10, and . shares at S32.375.
At the close the latter figure was
bid and $3.50 asked for the stock.
The other feature had to do with
Olaa. On the board a sale of 200
shares was made at S6.375. Another
large transaction had been made be-
tween boards, but was not reported
at the request of the parties concerned
At the close of the session Olaa was
strong and in demand $625 being
freely bid and $3.50 asked
A big Hawaiian Electric deal is on,
but failed to come to the surface in

Waialua again appeared in the
days trading, but at low figures
Between boards a sale of 10 shares
was made at $129.25, after which s1g9
was bid and $129.5O asked.

BUSINESS STATUS
IN EXTREME EAST

BOSTON, August 24.-It is admitted
by some of the most important finan-
cial interests of the country that there
is nothing inherently wrong with fun
damental conditions and that business
would be much better if more con-
fidence were entertained. This un-
doubtedly is true The absence of
the one hand and the corporations on
the other most largely explains the
prevailing want of confidence. Dis
agreement and contention between
the two have caused a feeling of un-
rest and uncertainty that should not
exist. What is needed more than any
thing else at the moment is a calm
and dispassionate effort on the part
of the contending parties to get to-
gether on a common basis for mutual
advantage and the good of the whole
country. The trouble became most
pronounced when attempts were made
to enforce the Sherman antitrust law,
and has since been intensified by the
passage of the railroad supervision
law. Certain interests have been
pleased to call these acts government
interference with corporate rights"
and have made vigorous resistance to
their enforcement.
Now the one important thing for
corporations to recognize is the
change that has taken place in the
commercial life of the country and
that government regulation and con
troll OF corporations is inevitable as
long as these laws are on the statute
books. The sooner corporations ad-
just their ways of business
to conform with the spirit of these
laws the better it will be for all. 1t
is fair to assume that the government
has no thought of dealing uniustly
with any Industrial or financial in
stitution. With the elimination of the
feeling of suspicion and discord that
has been engendered it is certain that
business would receive an impetus
that would be of incalculable benefit.
If the corporations were to meet the
government half way in the present
situation and endeavor to learn in an
amicable manner just how corporation
business should be conducted under
present laws, without resorting to
protracted and expensive litigation, it
would be a step in the right direction.
The financial situation is very
satisfactory. New York bank reserves
are larger than ever. America is inn

less, that indefatigable worker for Ha-
wall, the S. S. Wilhelmina has been
chartered for her February trip and is
expected to bring as many Shriners
as she can possibly carry. If the
present schedule is maintained this
steamer will arrive at Honolulu Feb
luary z1st, in time for the passengers
to participate in the Floral Parade and
Carnival. An effort should be made,
however, to keep the steamer in port
until the 23rd, in order that the
Shriners may have an opportunity to
enjoy all of the festivities.
Regarding the Los Angeles Excur-
sion, Mr.. Frank Virgins, Secretary of
the Los Angeles Chamber of Com
merce, writes under date of August
29th as follows:
I'VE are taking up the proposition
of running an excursion to Honolulu
some time in February Just now it is
all talk, but I would like to have you
give me this Information:
If we succeed in pulling it off, what
arrangements can tbe made at HilO
for taking the party to the volcano,

What are the facilities now for dock
ing The vessel at Hilo; what are the
hotel rates there, and also what will
be the hotel rates in Honolulu?

Queen as a means of transportation.

FOREIGN STOCK
MARKET IS MIXED

LONDON, August 23-Our stock
markets closed before the holidays in
so cheerful a style that bright hopes
were entertained that, on resumption
of business, prices would go ahead.
But these hopes have not been realiz-
ed. August is always a very poor
month for stock exchange business,
with so many members away on holt
day trips, also the erratic movements
of the New York market have renew
ed the anxiety lest another period Of
heavy liquidation should occur.
Even our home railway stocks have
not derived any material beneu, from
the splendid dividend announcements
published during the last fortnight or
more. Few better results have eve,
been achieved by our premier systems,
and some of the best are by those
lines which discontinued their cut
throat competition, and made arrange
ments to pool competitive traffic
We're it not for the labor scares as the
result Of the strike fiasco on the North
Eastern, we should have home railway
prices very buoyant, for yields are
now very liberal.
The rubber and oil Blooms" are qL ~
dead. There is scarcely any attention
being paid to oil shares, and business
is practically nonresident. There was
never any real reason for the oil
boom though it might come in the
future.
As regards rubber shares there is
very little doing. We are already ex-
periencing the inevitable aftermath of
the wild upward movement of few
months ago, and the flotation of lot
of fake concerns. Several of these
mushroom companies have already
gone into liquidation.
Perhaps the best market in the stock
exchange at present is that in South
African mining and land shares, es-
pecially RhOdesians. The progress be-
ing made in the traffic of Rhodesian
railways and the rise III land values
are proofs of increasing prosperity,
and as the speculative account open
for the rise is now practically nil,
small buying has an immediate effect
on prices.
The monetary situation continues
interesting and discount rates are
steadily creeping up toward the bank
rate, on account of gold demands from
various quarters, notably New York,
Egypt and South America. The
Egyptian demand is earlier than usual
owing to the earlier cotton crop. No
anxiety is felt, however, for the Bank
of England is in a splendid position.
The demands of trade are
being more and more felt by
the banks reports from various
centers continue excellent. Ian
cashire is much more cheer
full though a little anxious as to the
cotton crops in Egypt and the States.
The wool trade is doing more work
than for months past, while the re-
covery in iron and steel and shipbuild-
ing trades is most encouraging.

SECRETARY WOODS
WEEKLY OFFICE REPORT

The week past has been a very busy
one for the Office; upwards of 5000
copies of the reprint of account Of
the Flying Fish Shooting Party" were
sent out. The list included everyone
connected with the passenger traffic
departments of the various lines of
railway controlled by the New York
Central Railroad Cmpany, of which
Mr.. Warren j. Lynch is Passenger Z raf-
fic Manager; also of the station agents
along these roads, as we'll as the Gere-
raj Passenger Agents of other lines
of railway. We have reason to expect
much good publicity from this effort
Mr.. Lynch was greatly pleased with
his visit to Hawaii and promised upon
his return home to issue a circular
letter to the Passenger Agents of the
New York Central Lines giving
reasons why they should recommend
travellers to visit Hawaii. The work
of the Committee at Atlantic City is
responsible for Mr. Lynch's visit. Rail.
way men generally are taking note of
our work there and as it is their
policy to help those who help them
selves, we have reason to expect much
greater interest in travel to Hawaii
on the part of railway men east of the
Rockies.
The Annual Report of the Secretary
has also been sent out quite generally,
and marked copies of our papers Civ
ing an account of the reception and
entertainment of the Pacific Coast
Commercial Delegates have been wide
ly distributed through the mails.

crossing satisfactory Through the
