Money! Money! Money!
Hustle day and night
Toll and save
And scrimp and shave
And scheme with all our might.
Pennies grow to dollars
Very soon, we find.
But bye-and-bye
We have to die
And leave it all behind.
Money! Money! Money!
Dollars are the prize.
Each represents
A hundred cents
And oft n hundred lies.
Thousands grow to millions;
Just when they grow dear
We go away
The millions stay
We leave the money here.
Money! Money! Money!
Harden soul and heart;
Get the due
That is for you,
And get more than your part.
Friendship, love or duty?
Drop them. one and all.
But later on
When you are gone
There'll be fearless pail.
Money Money! Money!
Who invented It?
Sorry jest
Seen at it's best
Sombre form of wit.
Dollars-dollars-d
They have this distress:
Their only worth
Is on this earth
ShIouds are pocketless.

Mr. Spreckels. None.
The Chairman. Who gets the bene-

Mr.. Spreckels. So long as the i'm

rather, so long as you cannot get it

The Chairman. Did the Hawaiian
planters maintain any sort of an or

Mr.. Spreckels. Not at that time.
The Chairman. Do you happen TO
know whether they have maintained
any since that time?
Mr.. Spreckels. They formed the
Factors Company.

started to tell about a little while

Mr.. Spreckels. Yes. 1t was for the

ABOUT HAWAIIAN SUGAR BUSINESS

of Claus Spreckels.)
The Chairman. That trade with
New York direct from Hawaii will be

Mr.. Spreckels. think they have
reached the limit of the trade; they
cannot produce any more
The Chairman. You think Hawaii
is up to it's limit of production?
Mr.. Spreckels Yes.
The Chairman. And therefore you
do not think there is likely to be any
increase upon the completion of the
Isthmian Canal?
Mr. Spreckels. l do not think so.
The Chairman. Will it affect he
rate very much?
Mr.. Spreckels. l hope.
The Chairman. You believe it will,

of raw sugar into New York when it

The Chairman. Now, for many
years it has been testified to here,

Peace Is Quickly Restored.
What was the outcome? The men,
bers of the provisional government
pointed out that the republic was in
the very first Gays of its trial. The
actual government was not formed.
No president or parliament had been
selected. They urged that to precipi-
tate a national labor war at that mo-

organizations went before the coun-
Gil and said: Our men will return 10

any of our rights under the new law,
but we do not propose putting in
jeopardy the government which grant
ed us these rights. We will give no

as an illustration of the devotion Of
the people of Portugal to the repub-

to select rulers for themselves. There
were four candidates for the presi-

Strike Penal Offense.
Under the monarchy the laws
against any form of association among

penal offense and the penalties en-

disputes were savage. Such unfor-
