Its all up to Honolulu whether free
sugar in three years passes the house
IN the third reading of the Wilson
Underwood Bill today or not, according
to one well-known woman of the city,
who laid the matter before The Adver-
tiser yesterday and requested publicity
for her plan to save the cane industry.
The beauty about her suggestion is
that it requires neither subscription list
nor passing the hat to carry out
Let all the earnest men and women
of Honolulu meet some place in the
morning, just before the time when
the congressman are to vote, making
due allowance for the differences in
longitude, she says. "Then, when
everyone is gathered in one place, the
old fishmarket preferably, let the crowd
go into the silence and concentrate
Let there be one grand thought wave
waft Washingtonwards. Then a five
minute address on some solemn sub
Ject, then five minutes thought and so
on. The congressman will have to vote
against the bill. The influence of those
thought waves win be irresistible
But. suppose the congressman get
to thinking on their own account and
send some thought waves down to Ho-
nolulu," said The Advertiser man.
The first thing we would know we
would be throwing up our hats for free
sugar and cabling George II. Carter to
get off his perch. F"

strength at this particular level conveyed
no lu"a That the main course of prices
had been changed. There was. of course.
no definite reason why any particular sig
niicahcc should have been attributed to
this check In the decline. II is claimed for
one thing that the volume Of business in
the last few days has been too small In
accompany any important turn in the
tendency of quotations, although II is ad-
inittcd that when speculation is at as low
an cbb as II is at the present time no
great scale Of activity should bc expected
Tie behavior of the market in the next
