WOULD DEVELOP
CITY AS MAIL
ORDER CENTER

Postmaster D. H. MacAdam Is seek
ing to encourage mail order business
between the other islands and Homo
lulu, instead Of with the mainland.
In his annual report, which Is now
complete, the number Of c. o. D. par
GELS mailed here in the last year is
shown to have been SOP, against
1851 for the fiscal year Of 191o-tS.
This shows" said the postmaster
today, the use by Honolulu mer-
chants Of the parcel post as means
of developing Honolulu itself as
mail order distributing point"
Honolulu merchants have the ad'
vantage over mainland mail order
houses, the postmaster points out, in
that they can send merchandise or
ders to customers in the territory at
half the expense for postage the main
land firms incur.
The parcel post rate from Honolulu
to all poetofHces in the islands, is
s cents for the first pound and one
cent for each additional pounw, ex-
cept in the south half Of the Big Is
land, Hawaii, where the third zone
rate, 6 cents for the first pound and
2 cents for each additional pound, pre-
walls.
1T is the development Of that bust
ness, from Honolulu to all island
points, that am trying to encourage,
says Postmaster MacAdam.

EMBARGO MAY DELAY
SCRAP IRON SHIPMENTS
FROM HAWAII TO JAPAN

The recent embargo placed by
President Wilson on, expectation Of
various articles from the United
States without . permit, put a crimp
In the cargo Of Q Japanese liner which
arrived here Wednesday from San
Francisco and is on her way to the
Orient today.
She was able to secure only 1900
tons of freight at the coast, having
started to load about the time the
embargo went into effect, July 8.
Confusion in issuing permits pre-
vented her from getting more, al
though more cargo was offered than
she could have space for.
According tc the +. K. ks local
agency, Castle & Cooke, permits must
be obtained from the department Of
commerce and labor before exports
Of various articles can be made. It
Is believed here that scrap iron and
steel are included in the embargo,
but that they can be shipped to the
Orient after the local customs district
receives blank permits from Wash.

Kennedy explained that the island

WAILUKU, Maui July 26.-The

the motion, declaring that the Duvau-

The present road has been in ex-

this is the first time that claim has
been made Of the land it occupies. He
declares that the present road Is bet

new road could be. and that the new
road will cost several hundred dol

The action of the board in the

ISLAND COFFEE
SUFFERS BY WAR
Especial star-Bullstin Correspond .ue..)

HILO, July 26-Because the Gen.
trail Powers before the war imported
100000 bags Of coffee a year which
market is now closed, this supply has
been thrown onto the other markets
resulting in a reduction Of the price
and the. coffee raisers Of the territory
are feeling the effect, according to
Abe Louisson, coffee grower of Hama
kua.
Louisson says that the coffee this
year is of a high grade, although the
quantity Is little less than last year
as it is an off year and he has no COM
plants to make other than the mar
ket IL reduced and the price lower
than the standard Of goods produced,
would ordinarily call for.
With sugar, Louisson says, 1t is
different. The Central Powers raise
q large quantity themselves and the
restriction Of the market is more Of
an advantage than q detriment, as
other markets have been thrown open
to other producers.

Federal Control
Of Sugar Nears,
Thinks Mr.. Guild
Asserts Price May Be at Much
Higher Figure Than is
Generally Supposed

That the control of sugar by the
federal government is coming, but at
a much higher figure than is general
Iy supposed, is the opinion Of John
Guild, secretary Of Alexander & Bald
win, who has gone into the question
very thoroughly.
r feel sure the government will
control the price Of sugar, but the
price will be nearer 51a cents than
~ cents a pound" Guild said. Four
and one.haH cent sugar does not mean
today what it did two or three years
ago as the cost Of material and sal
aries have all increased as we'll as
many other things pertaining to the
production Of sugar.
Another thing which will tend to
keep the price Of sugar up is the
Cuban situation" Guild continued.
To-day the Cuban planter is in q far
better financial condition than he has
will be more Independent. The fed
eral government cannot control tho
Cuban output and qIite naturally the
planters of Cuba will not agree to
any low price.
AT this time the investor is afraid
of sugar because of the uncertainty
but am thoroughly convinced that
the price will never be set below 51s
cents.
For many years Hawaii has had
an advantage over most sugar sec
tions in the way of low transportation
charges. With freight rates at So to
San Francisco and SO to New York
the Hawaiian sugar men have been
able to produce sugar at lower price,
but these conditions will not last mucn
longer. Today the freight rate be.
tween Cuba and the States is $12 q
ton" said Guild.

From what may be termed Off

cial District Court three years ago.

January. Not enough pay Is given

Judge Howell's resignation will

sort of monopoly OF district office
holding enjoyed by Lafourche poll
ticians for several years.
In this connection, several names
have been mentioned for the place,
among them being Mr.. H. NJ. Wallis
and Mr.. H. NJ. Bourg.
It. will be noticed that both of
these gentlemen have the same ini-

SPLENDID PIECE OF ROAD
BUILDING BEING
DONE

According to Mr.. Sam Polmer,
First Ward Police Juror, gravelling
of the Houma-Schriever road, now
progressing very rapidly, will be
finished by the end of February.
During the past month Mr.. Pol
mer has given a great deal of his
personal attention to supervising
this job, and it must be said that
the work is advancing very rapidly
About seven miles have been gray
elled and surfaced off, so that only
about four miles remain to be sur
faced to connect up with the she'll
road running out of Houma.
At, the rate the work is moving
now it. is not at all improbable that
it will be finished by the end df
January, though Mr.. Polmer gives
no promise>of completing it in thai
length of time.
When work on thas road is I'm,

roads in Louisiana. That part Of ii
already done is a splendid piece o,

RACELAND WILL JOIN
WITH H0UMA TO
BUILD ROAD
THAT WILL PUT HOUMA AND
RACEIAAND ON INTERNATION-
AL HIGHWAY

Raceland residents want the Hou
ma-Raceland roadway. They want
it as badly as do Houma residents.
They want not only the roadway but
they want the modern gravelled road
contemplated in the creation of
Road District No. of this parish
and the levy OF special tax some
two years ago. That they desire it
is evident in a little scheme of their
own, now budded into life and
nursed into healthy, growing crea
ture. This scheme is nothing short
of the creation Of a road district
to comprise some hundred thousand
acres of land at and around the
thriving little village of Raceland
The creation of this district will take
place some time in December if their
idea goes through without any in
terruptions. 1t will levy a special
tax to float bond issue big enough
to build road to connect up with
the road from Houma, at the divi-
sional line of the two parishes, and
carry this road to the New Orleans
highway, now under construction,
and which will be completed as far
as Raceland some time in the early
| part Of next Spring.
Information to this effect comes
from Mr.. Leon Falgout, an influen-

mill will probably grind seventy
five thousand tons of cane, this sea-

About twenty thousand tons will
be ground by the Myrtle Grove mill,
owned by Barrow and Duplantis.
The Terrebonne Sugar Co. are

OF the colored women there were
1886 who signed the Food Pledge.
The number of colored registrants
has not been officially reported up
to this time, though it is believed
that it will be in the neighborhoo ood
of 1900.
Great interest was shown at every
registration place. There is little
doubt but that if the Food Pledge
campaign had been as wide as that
to get the women to register, there
would have been as many food
pledges as there were registrations.
