SPECIAL LETTERS TO
FRIENDS OF HAWAII.
PROMOTION COMMITTEE WRITING
TO MAINLAND BOOSTERS
A GOOD WORD.

Secretary Wood of the promotion
committee is going over the correspond
ence of the last seven years and is
sending out special letters to the ad-
dresses that appear worth while follow
ing up! He estimates that this work
will keep the office staff busy for some
time to come.
The last of the special notices have
been put up on the waterfront. There
are now two ON the Alakea street wharf,
I two at the railway and one each at
the MatsOn and Oceanic wharves. As
result it has been noticed that
greater number of people find their way
to the rooms. Through the courtesy of
/ Brewer & Co., Castle a. Cooke and
Hackfeld Co. signs are now in their
Offices suggesting to persons leaving for
! trips to various parts of the world that
they take away with them folders tor
distribution.
The Hawaiian firms having agencies
on the mainland are TAX ng Il greater
! interest in advertising their home
country AID the New York and san
Francisco Offices of III. Haekfeld & Co.
have recently been supplied with en-
larged photos of the relief maps of the
various islands.
The special folder for distribution at
| the National Education Association Is
convention, to be held on July s, are
now nearly ready and Wood thinks that
Hawaii should get good boost through
their distribution.
The following letter from a recent
enthusiastic visitor, DIR. J. @. McCormac
Of Oregon, will be read with interest:
s. Allow me to acknowledge receipt of
copies of folders and to thank you for
the many courtesies shown me while
on my visit to the beautiful Hawaiian
Islands, where fires are used for cook
ing only; and doors and windows are
but ornaments.

good work so well begun will do very

tribute paid by our restless people in
their endeavors to see something new

There II general tendency to pass

commission un immigration recommends
that no single men be allowed 10 come

suggested that a tag shall be kept on

Not Hostility.

cit must not be thought, however,
that the policy of exclusion is one of
hostility" said the speaker. "The
home government recognizes that in
case of war-and it would be exactly
the same if these Islands were situated
two thousand miles out in the Atlantic
Ocean instead of the Paeifc-it would
come down to matter of feeding
some one hundred and twenty-five to
one hundred and fifty thousand PEG.

Speaking of the matter Of immi-
grants being allowed in here and want
ing to continue on at a later period to
the mainland, he said that it is. doubt
full If immigration from here to the
mainland could be stopped. Several
judges of the Supreme Court had said
at various times during the course OF
private conversation that II could not
be stopped. They had further added
that no executive body could prevent
IL or any act of congress. As a con.
sequence the regulations affecting Ha'
wall must be on the same lines a.
though In force for the mainland.

A Big Stream,

With the opening of the Panama
Canal big tide of immigration is ex.
pected to set in for California and it
is possible that Hawaii may get some
of this In order to do so Il is not
necessary, however, to have the wages
here at the same standard as those on
the mainland. It is rather a matter
of keeping people here after we get
them. Altogether it has been found
that out of every thousand assisted inn
migrants that are brought in here, some
seven hundred find their way out again.
This is a good thing in one way, as it
prevents any danger of over population,
as has occurred in many of the tropical
countries. The matter Of raising the
wages to the Coast standard would only
mean that some of the Asiatics would
stay on instead of returning home.
The immigration work here is only
possible because we have big organiza-
tions employing labor. There are many
things for and against, but on the whole
matters look very promising.

PRELIMINARY REPORT BY
BOARD OF ENGINEERS
Proposed That City and Santa
F8 Join In Building an Inn
mense Reservoir

Creation OF d big lake for the pnr-
pose Of providing an emergency water
lsuply will be a comparatively cheap
and easy matter according to pre-
lliminary report made by a board OF
engineers, after investigation OF the
storage possibilities Of the entire
country for ten miles around Guthrie
A rough estimate filed yesterday by
City Engineer f. B, Hooker, w. H.
Archer, the water expert OF the Santa
Fe, and +, l.. Guy, chief engineer OF
the Santa Fe, places the cost Of a
reservoir capable OF holding a bill
lion gallons of water at $9S,000. The
site in contemplation vii give eight
and a half squire miles OF drainage
1t is said a lake of sufficient size can
be provided for by dam twenty-five
feet high The engineers agree in
saying that water stored in the tract
mentioned will be practically ready
for use as city water and fer en-
gines without treatment The cnar-
acter Of the land indicates that there
viii be little Objectionable matter IN
the water and the settling will take
out all the rougher impurities.
A Joint Reservoir.
The proposition on which the en-
gineers are working is tnat OF a jplnt
reservoir for the city and the Santa
Fe. The city expects to expand and
the Santa Fe is preparing TO put in
extensive improvements here and to
make this the Oklahoma division
point. A great deal OF water is now
used by both tho city and the road
and there are in sight much larger
demands The Santa re now uses
about 100000 gallons Of water a dag
from local sources and should have
an available supply OF l50,000 gallons
The city pumps an average OF 100000
gallons and should have an available
supply Of l,000000 gallons The lake
proposed would give both an ample
supply for all emergencies and pro-
vide for several month sof dry
weather.
The proposed merger appears -
be a good proposition good rtf-
ervoir site cannot be easily acQalred
by each OF the parties and il tW9
reservoirs are built the expense wilt
be double that proposed under this
plan.

he said he had an opinion based on
the Ardmore case, that the CITY can
not vote bonds for certain cross
ings and other public utilities without
taking title to the same.
