RELIEF Is EXPECTED
FOR NEVADA SHIPPERS

Nevada shippers who have fought
SO consistently against the long and
short haul charges made by the trans.
continental railroads-who objected
to paying freight charges from Chi
cage to Sacramento and back to Ne
Vada points when the freight hauled
mad to pass through said Nevada
points and which was not actually
hauled to Sacramento and back, may
look for a decision in the famous in
termountain rate case within the next
few days, says the Reno Gazette.
That the decision of he interstate
commerce commission in this case will
not be a disappointment to Nevada
shippers was intimated yesterday
evening by one said to have knowI-
edge of approximately what the de
cision will be. Just what ruling the
commission will make and what re-
lief the Nevada shippers may expect
was not mentioned, but the opinion
was that Nevada will secure relief that
will be most satisfactory.

you make your home town the kind of place which the young folks

mt etlnG was Il OrteXy one. The chief
matter before the body was the re-

A tentative plan was to meet the
members Of the party at Lahaina on
Thursday morning, serve breakfast
under the banyan tree, and then by
automobile reach Wailuku in time for
lunch, after which the lao Valley and
other points about Wailuku would be
visited. That same evening trip to

be, reached, the party returning in

the afternoon Those who did not
care to go to the mountain would
have an opportunity tof visiting other
points of interest on Maui. The boat
would be taken that evening.

FINANCIAL MAN
BELIEVES SUGAR
STOCKS TOO Low

Charles Remington, financial editor
Of the San Francisco Chronicle, does
net think prices Of Hawaiian sugar
stocks are up to the mark that the
prices Ct sugar should set. In the
Chronicle of April 8 he says:
The pre- sent prices Of Hawaiian
sugar stocks show very unequal gains
over a year ago. which seems rather
strange in view Of the fact that all
the gains may be attributed solely to
the advance in the price of the com
modify, an advance that affects all
plantations alike. Taking the clos
ing quotations Of the month of March,
1914, and March. 1915, Hawaiian Com
mercial and. Sugar shows an advance
