COTTON IS STILL
KING INDUSTRY

"The feature of the South's pro
gress that has always appealed to me
has been the perpetual quality of our
greatest resource" said F. L. Seely
in Golfers.
Cotton cannot be grown anywhere
in the world, except in the Southern
United States, Egypt and India, and
Egypt and India can only furnish Il
per cent of the worlds present supply
"a proportion that grows smaller as
the world grows greater, while the
South knows no limit to her ability 10
produce this commodity. China grows
little cotton, but the amount is in
considerable.
Men place their money in enter
prises in many parts Of the country
only to see time change conditions,
and investments shrink because ma
tural resources become exhausted.

ever increasing. Cotton is the great

Massachusetts has 1898 banking

CROZIER'S CANE
LOADER TRIED OUT

About dozen plantation men and
others gathered at the Honolulu Iron
works at 4 o'clock Friday afternoon
to witness a test of the Crozier cane
loader, a device invented by Charles
Crozier, a head blacksmith at the
works. Many attempts have been
made to perfect an economical, work
able cane loader and as many failures
have been fade. For the latter reason
it was with no lite satisfaction that
promise Of success had come from a
rliable mechanic, and the gentleman
who visited the iron works to witness
the experiments did so with hopes
considerably buoyed.
The Crozier scheme consists of a
very light car which runs on an in
clined track. The whole business is
easily shifted from place to place,
When loaded the car is drawn to the
top Of the track by a pulley and dump
ed, The great point about the device
is that is can be worked rapidly.
OF course only an imperfect idea of
its servicableness could be gained
from it's work on the level ground of
the foundry yard. In a cane field,
where the land is. rough and billy, it
is easily possible that the machine
would be found rather clumsy On any
thing like level land, however, it
should certainly prove a great labor
and time saver.
Manager Bull, of Oahu plantation,
was one of those forcibly impressed

HILO IS HAVING
SLOW, SURE BOOM

After commenting upon the good
time" which the extension of the Hilo
railroad have brought to the fair sec
ond city, the Hawaii Herald says:
There is no suspicion of a boom,
but the increase is a natural and heal
thy one which is following the pro-
gress of the railroad and which will
continue from this source till the con-
struction work is completed, when the
benefit to Hilo will be made even
greater by the many residents of Ha-
makua who will come to this city to
do all the shopping which they have
formerly done by mail orders with Ho-
nolulu.
Wishing to see just what money was
coming into town through the Hilo
Railroad, Treasurer Leonard was ask
to furnish free notes on the subject.
From these the following information
was gathered. The payroll of the en-
plOyees of the company on the Hama
hud eAIeuSlOH iOT luS uuOulu VI MAY
amounted to $S,5O6.97 and in addition
to this sum S12,000.00 was paid out to
the contractors, large part of which
went Immediately into circulation,
through being distributed among the
many men at work. The regular pay
roll of the Hilo railroad for the last
month amounted to $13,S47.SS and also
merchandise was purchased through
local houses to the value of $10,500.0 90.
From this it will be seen that the Hilo
Railroad during the month of May con-
tributed $44jS54.S5 to the money in cir
culation here, of which 500, 5O6.97- came
from the new work which is being
done on the Hamakua extension. This
last named amount will be very large
ly increased in the near future as the
work farther out progresses.

WAIKIKI BEACH
MATTER TAKEN UP

Much of the time of the Promotion
Committee at the meeting held Friday
afternoon was taken up with consider
alton of the Waikiki beach problem.
Archie A. Youngs scheme of throwing
out wingwalls from the shore at the
town side of Moana hotel drew out a
suggestion from Captain Frank P.
Robards, of the United States Marines
who lives out there and has thoroughly
investigated the matter. The Captain S
idea Is that the current in through the
channel should be thrown off, in place
of allowed to wash the beach.
In this his opinion agrees with that
of Mr.. Young. AS to the best way of
accomplishing the object, he had de-
cided that to board up the Moana
walk, thus throwing off the current,
would accomplish the desired purpose.
/ Mr.. Young and Captain Robards
will confer on the matter and plan
to be decided upon by them will be
carried out.
! 1t is understood that action in re-
gard to the wash at Waikiki beach is
being taken none too soon. Not only
has the bed of the bathing area come
in for serious damage, but the surf is
encroaching upon property on shore,
with the prospects that considerable
of the beach line may soon be under.
mined and ruined.
R. K. Bonine called attention to
some of the extensive schemes he was
getting out for the advertising of the
Islands. The matter will be taken up
later.

NEW ELECTRIC
PLANT PLANNED
The Garden Island:

Inc Garden Island:
The Kauai Electric Company is
planning a second power house in
Wainiha Valley which will double the
available power to be conveyed by it's
lines, and will develop enough power,
I'M addition to the third unit which is
now being installed at the old power
house, to give ample supply for all
the needs of McBryde plantation, in
the way of pumping facilities, as well
as Of the other plantations which may
be tapped along the line, for many
years to come.
1t is proposed to put the new power
house, which will not be built for a
year or two yet, or until the schemes
for development which are at present
in progress are completed, up in Wal
nina Valley in the neighborhood of
Maunahina, two or three miles above
the present power house. Here it
will be possible to build the new pow
er house just above the line of the
present power ditch, in a location
which will enable the water from the
new ditch to be all saved and run
through the old ditch for use again IN
the old power house.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 7.-As
prompt as the falling of the time ball
on the Fairmont hotel was the de-
parture yesterday for the Philippines
of the army transport Ligan. The 70
o'clock whistles were still shrieking
their notice of an hours rest from
labor when Captain Grant. U. S. A.,
sent his mighty right arm whirling
through the air in signal to Captain
StinsOn, on the triiper's bridge, that
he could take his ship away as quick
ly as he liked. The gangway was
| hauled ashore, the lines cast off and
| away went the ship, passing for a
brief second to allowk belated army
officer to make a flying leap from
the hastily projected gangway to the
ships rail.

SpreCkeIs Arrival
Cause Of Speculation

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6-The
news of the arrival of Claus A. Spree
kels in the city on Saturday night
was received by the sugar interests
yesterday with varied emotions, and
the presumption that he is here TO
invade the local market did not tend
to quiet the agitation that has existed
since a cargo of refined sugar con-
sisting of 5000 tons was shipped from
New York on May 21st. 1t was gen
orally admitted, however, that the en-
tire 5000 tons, with any subsequent
shipments that may follow, will not
be sufficient to neutralize the acidity
that the predicted sugar war will en-
gender.
Aside from the guarded and rather
fragmentary remarks of Spreckels
published in yesterdays Chronicle"
in which he professed to believe that
profit could be made by shipping re-
fined sugar from New York to the
Western markets, nothing new was
cleaned from him.
Spreckels passed a quiet day with
friends and was not accessible for
discussion of his purposes. His utter
ances so far have been confined to a
few epigrams to the effect that liars
can figure" that he did some figuring
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1910-06-13

himself before shipping a cargo of Sd
gar here, and that no more detoriora-
ton is to be feared from crossing the
line with sugar in the Pacific than in
the Atlantic.
While it is conceded among the
sugar interests that the economic de
velopments of price war will be mo-
mentous, it is also admitted that the
domestic disturbances are likely to
overshadow them in the popular
mind. It is pointed out that Rudolph
and Claus A. Spreckels, with the es-
tate of the late Claus Spreckels, own
the Federal Sugar Refining Company,
which is independent, while John d.
and .Adolph B. Spreckels own, with
the American Sugar Refining Com
pany, the largest local plant, which
is affiliated with the trust.
In view of the fact that the late
Claus Spreckels sold his interests in
the American Sugar Refining Com
pany to invest in the Federal shortly
before his death, it is said that the
possibilities for interesting develop
ments in the situation have not been
exceeded by any of the previous
transactions of the sugar trust and
the independents, or of the principal
figures in the predicted price war.
