REPRESENTATIONS in WASHINGTON

Speaking OF criticism, it is always interesting
to sssee yourself as others see you' provided the
man who does the seeing is friendly and has
kindly intentions Everyone knows that pecII-
liarities are usually in the other fellow and it is
matter of surprise to find anything Of that
kind in ones self.
The. paragraphs that follow are from per.
sonal letter to the President of the Merchants
Association There is no occasion TO give the
name of the writer. Suffice it 10 say that he
lives in Washington, is in personal touch with
official worka-day Washington, is not a mem
her OF Congress, and is thoroughly friendly to
Hawaii as we'll as the Wilson administration
The sugar situation has become Interesting and
there may be important developments at any time
There appears to be good fighting chance Tor

body here to look after their affairs and join the
Louisiana people in putting up stih fight good,

alton would suggest that some thought be given
these observations The outlay would be compare
lively small and the results Of utmost benefit all
around One man of the right kind could take up all
the odds and ends and that all concerned are
kept advised and that the necessary word in time
spoken.
The Immediate response in the minds of the
planters interests will probably be that they
have a representative in Washington with whom
this gentleman is not acquainted.
We are not arguing the point Of view Of the
man who writes the letter. On one thing we
\lst all agree Hawaii is sadly lacking in thor
\hly efficient representation in Washington.
