S. P. Beecher, one Of the pioneer
fruit growers OF the Peshastin district,
was here Wednesday, having driven up
on the north side Of the river. He
said everybody was busy in the Or
chards with an abundance of work and
help scarce and hard to get. There is
no reason why every man who wants to
work should not find all he can do
now. A number OF ranchers, he said,
were looking for help.

SPLIT
. ON POWER RATES

The rates which the traction com
pany is to pay the Hilo Electric Com.
unnv for light and power was the prin.
cipal bone of contention here at the
meetings which were held before the
utilities commission. Frank +. ThOmp-
son. representing the electric company,
made proposition that the interests
get together and fix the rate. This
was decided upon, but the interview
which took place in Thompson s Office
was not satisfactory, as no agreement
was reached.
The traction company offered one
cent and quarter for the service, on
a step scale, the latter figure being
the minimum. The Electric company
which had held out for a cent and q
half reduced the figure to a cent and
three eighths but it's offer was refused
by G. G. Ballentyne, acting for the
traction people.
1t is stated that the fixing Of a rate
for power was the only thing which
was keeping HiO from having a street
railroad, and if the public utilities CON
missiOnPrS are successful in fixing 1
rate that will be accepted it will meal
that IIilO has a mnch better chance fOl
the railway than it has ever had be
fore.

new railway are r. w. Shingle, G.. G

past the curtain of secrecy, with which
the administration has shut of all de-
tails Of the cabinet conference on the
SUSSEX note, Is the report that the com
nunicatiOn, when IL is forwarded to
Berlin, which may be within the next
twentyIfonr hours, will leave every pos
ible loophole for Germany to avoid an
open rupture with this country.
1t is asserted in well informed cir
cIes here that the administration has
practically decided to state the Ameri-
can case from the beginning.
No Ulttmatum As Yet
But nothing in the nature of an ulti-
matum will be contained in the mess
age. On the contrary, it is said, every
effort will be made to leave open ways
in which the authorities in Wilhelm
Strasse can to avert q diplomatic break.
Among congressman and other off
;ials at the capital, however, there was
a widely circulated and persistent re-
port that President Wilson has decided
tpon giving formal notice of the com
''lete severance Of all diplomatic rela-
tons with Germany, and that this no
tice will be included in the text Of the
