the entire stock the buyer still seemed
unable to make a selection. Upon
being asked what particular view he

cards showing the Abrams-Weis-
berg fight, as he had heard views of
it could now be purchased. What an
opportunity lost?
The Kennedy & Warner contract
ing company say they have been har-

if. Deputy Pelton went to Litchfeld
and found Barra and also 10 bottles of
in his wagon. Bara says he
merely makes delivery of the booze for
one George Scope, an Elyria saloon
keeper. AS there was no evidence
that Barra was violating the law he
was left unmolested.

"A ball game between Medina and
Wadsworth at Wadsworth Sunday
afternoon, which was stopped in the
fifth inning by rain, was donated to
Wadsworth BY the local pitcher, Hus-

serve the victory on general princi-

just before the game stopped. Wads-

GOLF AND BOOZE.

4 We have come to understand generally that
the man who would win in baseball and other
strenuous athletics must keep clear of liquor,
but now comes golf to the front with its verdict
Of condemnation. The Minneapolis Journal
headed its editorial page the other day with
this statement:
"A Philadelphia golfer, a. w. Tllinghast,
says he can look back over more than 20 years
of golf in America and recall with sorrow the
names of some of our most powerful players
whom the game knows no longer, and whose
exit can be attributed to nothing less than
drinking.
1.-TWO well-known New York golfers were
discussing liquor and golf the other day dur
ing the club tournament
g I've cut out BOOZE, said one of them,
Z hurts my game, spoils my putting.
Good, said the other, for heavens sake,
man, tell me how you trace it.
Well, I'm perfectly convinced that alco-
hol in increasing the action of the heart over
supplies the eyeball with blood and after the
reaction, when the stimulus has passed, there
is change in the visualizing of the puts and
hence irregularity on shots.
And SO the good work goes on steadily.
Every decent thing in our American life is
cutting loose from the saloon.
The saloon must go! RISE.

ENDING A YEAR OF PROSPERITY.

Hawaii's striking prosperity is again EN-,
phasized in the address of Mr.. j. NJ. Dowsett,
retiring president of the Hawaiian Sugar
Planters Association, to the association mem
bers assembled today in the thirty fifth annual
meeting.
"A favorable season, heavy yields, good
prices and peaceful labor" is his summing-up
of the salient features of the sugar industry
in Hawaii for the past year, and prosperity for
sugar means prosperity for all Hawaii What
few disadvantages have developed are small
indeed compared to the beneficial factors which
are making it possible for the plantations to
pay extra dividends and wipe out debts of
years past.
President Dowsett does not refer to possible
action by Hawaii as concerns the tariff situa-
ton, but there seems to be almost complete
unanimity among the sugar men that Hawaii
should have no part in any attempt to secure
restoration Of the Payne Aldrich duty. Even
though adyices from Washington say there is
q fighting chance to get the 1.685 duty, Ha-
walls sugar men do not wish to see the sugar
tariff always in the battledore and shuttlecock
Of politics, as it probably would be were the
higher rate of protection once again imposed.
Furthermore, it is foreseen that under the
Payne-Aldrich duty the beet-sugar states
would at once go in for big planting campaigns
and thus the competition between the beet
sugar and cane-sugar interests would become
keener than ever.
The annual meeting of the planters is an oc-
casion for satisfaction over the results of the
past year, and the printed reports of able and
industrious committees chronicle some very
tlfnroef;no advances Sin Tofhoda of CANA
planting cultivation, and milling. The mar
keting Of Hawaii's product next year, as has
already been told in the newspapers, will be
very largely through two independent" re-
fning companies of the eastern seaboard. Ha-
Vaii expects from the new selling contracts
results which could not he secured through
continuance of relations with the American
Sugar Refining Company

"A. F. COOKE: Away back in the
eighties, when / was in the coasting
trade, I advocated school ship for
the training of delinquent boys. The
idea did mot meet with the approval
of the government Of the time and
never preached the subject again. In
view of the problem now present re-
garding the Boys Industrial School,
owing to the recent outbreak there, it
might be worth taking up the question
of q training ship. With the necessary
legislative authority, if such can be
obtained, the territory might acquire
a vessel of large tonnage for deep sea
commerce, on board of which boys
might be taught useful trades as well
as the varied work of sail and steam
navigation. Such vessel ought to be
self-supporting, besides training the
boys for service in the merchant ma
rine, whence, in national emergency,
they could make an easy transition
into the navy.

UP TO CONGRESS.

What has happened to the American flag on
the Pacific since the La Toilette bill was passed
may induce Congress to modify the seaman S
law at this session, particularly with the con-
crete reason afforded by the proposed Rookie
Teller line The men and newspapers that in
sisted the Pacific Mail would never quit bust
ness have been somewhat silenced since the
p NJ. liners were sold and disappeared from
this ocean. They are sure to start their cry
against aiding the shipping trust" if Con-
gress should prepare to ameiorate the La Fol
lette bill, but less heed will be given them.
For Hawaii, the resumption Of a service
comparable to that of the Pacific Mail former
schedule should be another great stimulus to
the tourist traffic. In fact, conceiyably there
might be an embarrassment of riches, for with
the Matson line steadily adding to its passen-
ger accommodations, the Great Northern ser
vice, and the other existing lines for domestic
and foreign passenger carrying, the aceommo-
dations would probably exceed the demand,
especially in the .'off'' season.
Though CONGRESSES prime task at this ses-
sion. is to work out preparedness program,
the subject of merchant marine is bound to be
hard pressed by those who believe that the
least Uncle Sam should extend to the shipping
corporations is encouragement, whether or not
subsidies can be given.

BRINGING THE ISLANDS" CLOSER TO
LOS ANGELES.
tFrom the Los ANGELES Tribune j

AnyeeS
By the establishment of direct steamship
communication Los Angeles is brought about
two DAYS nearer the Hawaiian Islands than
formerly Not only has there been saving
in time but the actual distance in travel has
been shortened more than 500 miles. The long
detour to and from San Francisco has been
eliminated by the new direct route which was
opened to passenger and freight traffic last
Saturday.
The Great Northern the finest ship in the
Pacific trade, has been put on the triangular
route between San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Honolulu. The opening of this new route
means much to Los Angeles. Not only will this
city become the point at which the larger part
of the passengers for the islands will embark,
but it affords an opportunity for trade expan-
sion of which our manufacturers and jobbers
will not be slow to take advantage.
On the initial trip of the Great Northern
representative of the Los Angeles Chamber of
commerce bears to the businessmen of Homo
lulu the Fluctuations and good wishes of that
organization. In this message of good will all
the people of Los Angeles and Southern Cali
fornia will find mutual pleasure and profit in
closer acquaintance and closer relations.
With the establishment of this new steam
ship line we feel that we are almost nelghbors,
being only four and half days separate from
each other It Is the hope of all in Southern

.HARB0R BOARD WANTS
EXTENSION BUILT TO
WHARF AT H0NUAP0

Following a short trip to Hawaii the
territorial harbor board returned this
morning to this city, having investi.
gated the wharf site at Honuapo and
the work going on at present at Ku'
hio wharf, Hilo. ~
According to A. c. Wheeler the Ho-
nuapo wharf is much needed, the plan
being to extend il out into the water
far enough to avoid the power of the
waves returning from shore. Officials
of the Hutchinson Mill Company,
which has control of the approach to
the wharf were visited at Honuapo,
and general discussion was held re-
garding proposed exchange with the
territory --.
Mr.. Wheeler says that the road at
Kuhio wharf is practically finished,
and the shed is well along. Work
on the sugar conveyor has also
started. =. .=

FRONTAGE TAX IN USE in Hawaii
NLONGPAST DAYS OF KALAKAUA

That the frontage tax is no modern
thing in Honolulu. as has been claim
ed for il by its opponents. is evident
from a dim and time-colored letter
that exists among the ancient docu-
nents that are in the possession OF
the public lands department.
This letter is from special jury
called to investigate the taxing OF
residents on certain portions Of Ala
kea street both mauka and makai OF
King street, and is addressed to King
Kalakaua.
BY the decision of the jury, resi-
dents were to pay 50 for each foot OF
frontage makai OF King. and $3.50 for
each foot mauka of King. The date
of the letter is September 80. 1884
and the residents who paid frontage
taxes for improvement on the project
some 80 years ago were as follows:

The new Industrial School commission is pro-
noting this tree. The newspapers are receiv-

Whitney, member of the commission.
It will help to bring the spirit of Christmas
the jolly, generous, sweet, Christian spirit
into this institution where now there is all too
much sullenness and enmity and hardness of
heart.
Any sum is welcome-from a penny to a
thousand dollars.
