VALUABLE LINES IN HAWAII

Twenty years ago the railway sys-

are 127 miles, including plantation
spurs. At first this railroad almost
ruined its promoters. Now It Is m
Of the best-paying investments in the
Hawaiian archipelago. The company
owns 20 locomotives, A passenger
cars and $40 freight cars. 1t has
$4,000 feet OF wharf and can store
10000 tons of sugar. Taxes on prop
erty from Eva to Kahuku plantation,
writes a Honolulu correspondent Of
Commerce Reports. which is tapped
by this railroad, amounted at the time
the road started to $28, 1853; in 1914 the
taxes on the same property totaled
1910, 900. This is one example how the
land along the line has increased in
value in the last twenty years. The
railroad paid $87,324 in taxes In 1914,
which mean that every two years the
company pays back to the government
the amount OF the subsidy granted to
the railroad, which was 1896. $50. The
gross earnings OF the road twenty
years ago were $12O, 600, and now they
are $1,000. 900; the freight earnings
were $4,000 and today they are $685.
900; the passenger earnings were
$4,000, and now they are $500, 600.
Twenty years ago 10000 passengers
were carried yearly, while in 1914
about 1,14O,0O persons patronized the
cars. There were 9O7,O 900 passengers
carried n mile twenty years ago; in
1914 they numbered 15.435,OO0 Pas

age rate On the mainland. This rail-
road, which starts in Honolulu. taps
five of the largest sugar plantations in
the Hawaiian islands, all the big pine
apple plantations, a sisal plantation,
several stock farms and several rice
and banana plantations; skirts the
shores Of Pearl harbor. where the
United States government is building

dock, and indirectly taps one large
American army post and one OF the

importance the road opens up some OF

This Is simply because the tracks are

The rails on the main line OF a trunk

A NEGRO'S TRIBUTE.
Bv James Mckinley Bard.

The trumpet is c~lling brave and
coura geous men to rally to the battles
front for the contesting European ma
tions, and encounter in what they call
worthy cause. In America that
same call has been given and it was
answered by many worthy men of the
past conflicts. Its results in numer-
Gus instances, have been good but
many stalwart soldiers life has been
snatched by an unworthy blast of the
bugle. In this same America. yes in
Fulton county of Ohio, a different
trumpet was blown, not of war, not of
peace. but a trumpet of rest that call
ed a pioneer woman to enter eternal
life in the celestial city of our God and
Redeemer.
Mrs. Mary Howard, sweet memories
shall long be cherished by her multi
tude of friends. Her kind ways and
g'ittering inspirations shall be as
r'orning stones not only by me but
Nv all who hungered for her consulta-
tion and advice.
Who was Mrs. Mary Howard, whose
departure we are lamenting. 1t was
she who was one of the primeval
lights and philanthropists of our city
IT. was she who's works and encourag-
ing deeds shall be as garland mem
cries to her admirers. Gone, but her
work shall live for ever. Yes the
s+~tely council oak droops it's head
with us in due respect and gratitude
for this worthy pioneer. Gone, yes
gone is her presence but her deeds
fha'l live forever and spread fragrance
to all her friends and mankind.
