The Ad Club's Visit

Next Saturday morning Kauaiwill receive the Honolulu Ad Clubwith representatives from Mauiand Hawaii, at the landing in Wai-me- a,

and for two days will essaythe part of host to the banner"booster" organization of thecapital city. We believe that theGarden Island is ripe for the im-

pressions usually left in the wakeof Ad Club tours; and, moreover,that there is a. widespread feelingof interest in the tour throughoutthe country from Hanalei aroundto Mona. Barring inclement weath-e- i

(which is unlikely, anyhow) theplans that have been made willundoubted e n s u r e the comfortand pleasure of our guests, andthe indications are that events willbe so rounded out that they willleave here with excellent impres-sions of the island and of ourpeople.

The excursion through (a n dseries or events at various placeswill serve to draw the good peopleof different communities togetherfor a common purpose which initself will be pleasant, and desir-

able. It will give us a chance totouch shoulders with our neigh-lor- s,

and at the same time to elicitinspiration from a body of menwno are more or less engagea inmodern business thought and acti-

vities. Out of it all this communityshould gain ideas which may proveof value in concentrating and promoting political, business and evensocial effort in the future.

To the Ad Club we would say:"Gentlemen, you ate thrice welcome, yourselves. Tell uswhat you are what you are seek-ing to accomplish; what good maycome to the people of Kauai as aresult of the adoption o f yourideas, and what you term 'the AdClub spirit.' We are ready to learn

to be shown' if you will. Whiledoing all this, remember that wehave much for you to see on theGarden Island. Keep your eyes'andears on the alert, and endeavor toglean in your more or less rapidtour correct impressions of ourscenery, our individual efforts andaccomplishments, our roads, ourschools and our people. Do this,and your visit, we feel sure, willbe long and favorably rememberedon both sides of the channel be-

tween us."

The New High School

Soon after the Ad. Club excur-sionists have been sent on theirway with better impressions ofKauai and Kauai people than theyhave ever had the opportunity ofpossessing before, a public meet-ing will be called for discussion ofthe part thisS island must take inthe successful establishment of aHigh .School. The grounds andbuildings have already been secur-ed; the teachers may be provided;the course of study may be mappedout for us.

But if the school is to be madea success right from the' start,there are duties which must beptrfornied by the people of Kauai.First of all, there must be unitedapproval of the high school idea.The public must grasp, mentally,the importance and value uf theinstitution anil wnat it will mean

terest in its success: tilk it up, or,to use a slang expression, "boostit."

The next duty of the people of

Kauai will be to set that it startsout with a reasonably large num-

ber of pupils. Quite a few ate al-

ready i n sight, and more willAppear after the summer examina-tions. If all who are qualified toenter high school are sent here,in place of being bundled off toHonolulu and elsewhere, whereno better facilities, in tnnnv res-

pects, will to be offered the insti-

tution will be a great success fromthe first day. Try to bring thatvery thing about; it is well worthworking for.

Tun prompt and unanimous en-

dorsement of tlie Nawilwili harborproposition by the HonoluluChamber of Commerce is quitesatisfactory for two reasons. In thefirst place it brings to the frontand center a powerful ally in thc-battl- e

for this important improve-ment, and. in the second place(and equally satisfactory , perhaps)it proves the sincerity of the Ho-it- s

offer, a few weeks ago to assistthe Kauai Chamber of Commerce innolulu Chamber of Commerce inanv scheme, or plan, it might de-

sire to put through. It is not like-

ly that anything can be done atthis late dav in the present Con

cessional session; but surely matters are so sliaping tnemselves asto give us a strong front at thebeginning of the next Congress.

We hope President Wilson hasbeen correctly quoted by JudgeWilder in the matter of protecting Hawaii from serious injury as aresult of the proposed ultimate removal of all duties now imposedupon foreign sugars. And if thePresident has been correctly quoted, we hope he will live up to jhispromise. It will be recalled thathe made a similar promise to Gilbertj. Waller immediately afterhis nomination by the Baltimoreconvention. Perhaps in the rushof events succeeding the convention, the President lost sight ofthe latter; but surely the same con-

ditions do not now exist and theresults may be different.

In dealing with the so-call-

"unemployed situation" at Ilonolulu, it would be well for our worthy, charitable-minde- d friends overthere to inquire as to where thesepeople were last employed, andwhy they left that employmentSpaniards and Filipinos are leaving the plantations by wholesaleand drifting into the city. Theyare leaving good homes, steadywork and satisfactory wages.May it not be Mat they are beinglured into the city by mischief-maker- s,

who are making false representations and promises tothem? If the matter were siftedto the bottom, the results mighthe highly interesting.

overland mail service on Kauai isthe signal for renewed and morestrenuous effort to obtain this con-

venience. Kauai must make upher mind not to lose anything shegoes after. When it is decidedthat a thing is desirable, and astart is made itr the direction ofobtaining it, the people of the is-

land should hang on with a bull-

dog's grip until the purpose is fill.Iilleu. It tins daily mail servicebetween Hanalei and Kekaha(both wr.ys) is required and desired, the island can get it by constantly "plugging away' at theproposition. Let the battle proceed.

Tun work of organizing for thecomiiig baseball season on Kauaiis progressing ' n a satisfactorymanner. This year very littlemoney will be required, mid it isto be hoped that the public willcome up promptly with the amountneeded. Good baseball will help usforget about the low price of sugar.

A fine spirit has manifested itself all along the line in the mat-

ter of preparing for the entertainment of the Honolulu Ad Club,and it is to be hoped that it may.be kept up until the affair has beenmade a great success. Kauai hasshown her ability to "get together"and do things, and we have everyreason to expect that as good, orbetter, record will be made on theimportant occasion now so closeat hand.

A Ray Of Hope

G'ooni which has hung over theTerritory of Hawaii for the pastyear because of threatened Demo-

cratic legislation which has dealtthe sugar industry the greatestblow it had received in many yearswill be materially dispelled, saysthe Advertiser, of Honolulu, by

the publication of Judge A. A.

Wilder's interview fhowing thatPresident Wilson will not permitHawaii's principal industry to bewiped out, but has realized thatthe lea of the sugar planters thata free tariff means the ruin of theirindustry after ail was not the buncombe which some of the Presi-

dent's Democratic advisers haveclaimed.

President Wilson has assuredJudge Wilder that in the eventthat it is shown that the removalof the tariff on sugar has not bcnefitted the consumer, the tariff willbe restored. That the consumerwill not benefit bv the tariff ;ereoval is already demonstrated. Thesugar producers today are receiv-ing within a fraction of the lowestprice ever paid for sugar, yet theretail quotations, the prices charg-ed bv the grocer to the family whobuy a few pounds of sugar at n

time, are the same practically asthose that prevailed a year o rmore ai'o. It is admitted that withsugar at present prices to the pro-

ducer great hardships will be suffered by the growers of this Ter-

ritory. Already the laborers, thosefirst t o suffer when depressioncomes in any line of industry, arefeeling the blow here in HawaiiTrue, there have been no materialreductions in salaries so far, butthe plantations 111 working outtheir economies to meet the crushing effects of Democratic legislation have curtailed their workingforces and lessened incomes for theworkingmen have been the resultw nar win be ne consequencewhen the sugar of the cheap laborcountries of the world are shippedin to compete with the Americanproduct?

Further comfort can be takenby the suga nvers and incidentally every resident in" 'he Tciritory, in iflie assurance that comesfrom Iresid-Mi- t Wilson throughJudge:' Wilder that even should itbe djcided that the tariff shall not

replaced on sugar, the indus- -

try here will be granted conces-sions which he hopes will act as apartial compensation for thedamage which the removal of thetariff has already caused the sugarindustry,

This is the first ray of encouragement Hawaii has received fromWashington since the present De-

mocratic administration assumedcontrol. It means encouragementfor those who were fast losing hopeof saving the sugar industry hereand in the fulfillment of the pro-mise President Wilson and the De-

mocratic party will show that thevare big and broad enough to reme-dy the damage which a mistakenpolicy has brought upon a greatAmerican industry.

Why?

Why were the items for the im-

provement of Nawiliwili harbor,Kauai, and Kahului harbor, Maui,left out of the house rivers and har-

ed. Jack Desha, Delegate Kuhio'ssecretary, wrote to the Kauaichamber of commerce under dateof February 28 that the bill hadbeen reported, without the localitems, to the house "the other day."Delegate Kuhio's illness, whichcaused him to leave Washington,was learned of Here on February 25.It is probable that the decision ofthe committee was reached uriorto that time.-leti- n.

k.iiui eiuicism, (iehiiir .a i n.- '

of lake and river is I U! i

llaml landseaie, we nnit t.ced - ;wept the charge with patient

mility. Jt stands t.i reason,small islands in the sea can't furnish much in the way of lake orriver. The watershed area is toosmall, and the distance too short,for either volume or length.

Furthermore, our islands are sohigh, with so steep a fall frommountain to sea, that there is nochance for lake or river. So, wherelarger and llatter countries havebroad, deep-ilowin- -r rivers beariuuheavy-lade- n freighters, we havebrawling mountain forest streams,running white with foam, too hur-ried to linger for lakes, too busy topause for commerce; such water-ways as arc .suggestive of thepower plant rather than the powerboat.

And yet, we have, especially onKauai, a few streams whose leisnre- -

ly How may perhaps entitle them toa very humble place among-- the riv-ers of the world, where they maywin a measured interest on otherguiimus man size, .niong tiicseHawaiian rivers the first fctce maybe accorded to the llanalei. Reaching away back into the early dawnof an age that far outruns all his-

tory, when the island mass was firstcool enough to pnrJpitate themoisture that lutlied its jhrow onthe wiims ,,f the trade vviind, and

ltiVe" vvater began to trickl'to thesea, seeking such natural depres-sions as the wayward fire godolesshad left in her roughly-finishti.'- d

handiwork, and gathering volumeand violence as it ran, the processof erosion first began. Little Lylittle the shallow channels deepened,little by little the walls crumbled,cutting down at first a narrowgorge, and then widening gradual-ly to an ample valley, yet retainingalways the cross-sectio- n,

because the point of utmost pressureot the growing tool was always atthe very bottom of the V. Down,down it went, sometimes savagely,grinding and tearing and gnawing;!sometimes gently retouching andsmoothing and polishing, butways and ever cutting farther anddeeper into the heart of the island,;until the great mountain mass wasrent in twain, as one cuts a sliceout of a melon. Down, down itwent through countless ages, know-ing no end nor weariness, until atlength the level of the sea wasreached. There at length the noisyconquest ceased, and the restlessstream found peace in the restless1sea. Sea-lev- was the foundation;plane bevond which the knife oferosion could not cut.

And so we had a gorge,hundreds of feet deep on either side,whose lowest point, at the mouth,just touched the sea level, but fromwhich, running back, the bed of thestream rose more or less rapidly, inkeeping with the slopes of the sur-rounding country. A valley, likecountless other valleys, big and little, throughout these islands, bntvery different from the present lla-

nalei.Meantime, the countless millions

of tons of "spoil"' which the brawl-ing stream had eaten out of the I

vitals of the island had gone tosea, in some measure carried faraway by the action of the oceancurrents, and in some measure de-

posited in the generous bay, to the:crious obstruction of the same. I ladthe evolution ceased there, we would !

never have had a valley like llana-lei. with a broad stretch of bottomland, and a sluggish, meanderingriver, but one like Wainiha, deepand narrow, with a brawling streamuniiing while in the bottom. I'.ut

at this point there was a new de-

parture in the evolution and a newfactor entered, in to modify results.

Then began a new era of devel-opment. The former process wasreversed, and the brawling riverset to work to repair the damage ithad wrought. Still continuing totear out. with the same restlessenergy, in the heart of the mountains, it carried down its spoil tofill up the great gash it had made,...-1- 1 t e . , ,aim win nacK irom me sea, uy aslow but steady process of conquest,extending over conntles ages, thatwhich the sea had won, in a nightperhaps. Filling; in, as does a sluic-ing engineer, to right and left, byswitching- the feeding stream, keep-ing the whole face level, the riverfought hack the reluctant sea, cling-ing desperately to every inch that itgained. However angrily the incoming surges roared and trembledaiKi iVvtyjIit, like infuriated mon-sters blhtd with rage, sometimesbent on beating- back the invading j

shore sometimes endeavoring tosweep it a stay into the silent depthsof its own li bovoni. the effort wasvain. The vlork of restoration wentsteadily forward: madly at times,as great roaring freshets came tear-ing down from the mountains, bear- -

nig traiuioads ot material, Hugerocks, and stones, and trees plumsin the pudding" of finer stuff. Theseworu busy days, along the wholehue of action, no less than at themouth, where all this material wasto he placed, rnpidlv as if came, andyet wisely, for all time. Then therewere slack days, when the streamran low, and worked quietly, depos-iting fine silt, to fill in the gaps andsmooth uj) the finish.

So the work of repair went on,through ages countless, perhaps,but not so countless as those darkages of destruction.

And there were stages of the un- -

finished product, when over largeareas the result might seem to beuncertain, where in broad stretchesof salt marsh the sea clung sullen-ly to its own, and defied the river touse what it had won.

At some period of this unfinishedcondition the first Hawaiian orwas it some earlier race? musthave come upon the stage, and giventi. Vallev its fitting name. Hana-le- i

tue i;ay ot wamps a namewhich has outlasted the sense of itssignificance, and runs back to someearlier stage of the language whenfana was the common word for bay

for we find it frequently used inHawaiian names of bays.

Siill. for untold ages perhaps, thefinishing process went on; therounding and softening of outlines,the polishing out of the tool marks,the urrinding in of the "filler," thetippling in of softer tones, the veil

ing of the landscape with an evenfiner web replacing one flora withano lur. So the work went on,until, at length, we have the finishedbeauty of the modern llanalei.

in one significant respect, atleast, the 1 lanalei will not take oddsof any river in the world that isin the wealth and variety of scencrvif mi iniii-- . .iosi rivers are slowmoving- pictures on very long films.Very gradually, and throudi manv

, miles of distance, vmi pass fromthe sea coast scenery of the mouth,through the midlands, to the moun-tain scenery of the source. The manwho sees the one often has noknowledge at all of the other. Thellanalei furnishes, in one magnifi-- ,cent panorama, the whole variedrange of its beauties, all to be com-passed in one discriminating survey.

At any selected spot, overlookingthe river, one may trace its wholeomet story from its birth in the.cloud-cappe- d mountains to its depthin the boundless sea. Turning oneway, the outlook faces the vaststretches of the broad ocean thegraceful sweep of the crescent bav1 ringed with foam breaking on theyellow sand and flecked with thewhite sail of fishing canoe or Jap-anese sampan. Turning the otherway. there are the green' sunlit foot- -nills, merging- - into the nearby XaMolokama mountains, 4CXX)' feethigh, and scarcely more than 4000feet away, wreathed with tropicalverdure, and traced with while fila-ments of waterfall, with wondrousplay of shifting light and shadow.While at ymir feet lies the silver rib-bon of the little river, winding backmd forth, bent on getting in all thelength possible in such confined

.quarters.So small a river, with so uncom-

mercial a history, has naturally buti modest story to tell as a highwaywater transportation appeals maly to heavy traffic, larger bod K'sthat move slowly. The primitiveHawaiian had no such traffic. !'was easier to carry his few headsof taro, or bundles of lauhala orwauke, across land than to propelhis heavy dugout canoe by water.I'esides, the river was so windingthat you had to paddle all over thevalley before you got anywhere: Iwas quicker to cut across. Accordingly, we may well suppose thatthere was never much canoe trafficon the river, only now and thensome lone fisherman angling' thequiet waters for mullet or cat-fis- h.

I!ut with the advent of the white jman came the need for a kirovrtraffic. First coffee, then silk gavepromise of commercial importance, jbut went their early way to failure.Finally sugar came to stay. A millwas built at Kuakea, midway onthe banks of the little river,' andcane was planted in large areas upand down the valley.

Now, in those early days, andmore recent ones as well, the crucialproblem of the sugar business wastransportation how to get the vasttonnage of cane, day by day, fromthe field to the mill, and especiallyhow to do it in all kinds of weather,and over all kinds of roads. Thesmooth, easy-goin- g, ever-read- y wa-terway appealed mightily to theworried planter, driven to despera-tion by refractory oxen and de-crepit carts, and miry mud-hole- s, allof which factors combined to keenhis mill standing idle, while the canerotted, or was devoured bv rats, injJie fields. So the river was adopt

as the highway of this traffic.Great barges were built n.l

launched or its quiet waters, andlowed single or tandem by Ion"strings of patient oxen, ploddumiloug the k; 'ik. while men with Ion"poles counteracted the bias mill !'

GARDEN ISLAND,

To Men Who LoveTheir WivesA Special Invitation

Do you remember how careful you were of your personal ap-

pearance in those glorious days when you were courting the Missus?

how you paid her the delightful compliment of always looking

your bet when you came into her presence?

You wouldn't of taking her out then, if you had on a seedy, out-of-da- te suit.

You wanted her to be able to show the world that "her man" was striclly up to the

minute a genuine live-wir- e, for whom only the best tailoring was good enough.

You're juit as good a man today as you were then and the Missus is every bit

as entitled to the respect you used to pay her.

It isn't fair, boys, juit because the Little Woman at Home has Mrs. before her

name to drop all those little attentions and homages of the courting days. If you want

her to keep young don't slouch around looking like a premature grandpa. Show

her that you are still a Live-On- e by keeping up with the styles.

What's that? The Missus says ''Isa-Bibble- r' so long as she gets her own East-

er Bonnet and Harem Skirt? Tut, tut, fellows! Can that ancient calumny. It isn't

true. She's as proud of your looks as .she ever was.

Just try sprucing up this Spring in a real rejuvenating Royal Tailored-to-orde- r

Spring Suit one of those trim and slim English cut sacks with the narrow shoulders

and the soft roll lapels, and the snug-fittin- g, youthful trousers. You'll see how proud

she'll be of you.

TAX ASSESSMENTS

REDUCED FOR

The following interesting state-

ment on the above subject was

given out at Honolulu on the 15th.:

Last year the assessed valuation

of property in the territory was

S175.000.000, This year it is $150,-161.000- .

The returns as submittedby the taxpayers totalled about$137,000,000. It is quite possiblethat some of the assessments willbe appealed from, and the resultof these appeals will determinefinally the amount that will beavailable to draw revenue from.

The revenues which the countiesreceived last year, from real and

they will receive this year, accord-ing to the present figures, is shownas follows:

1913. 1914.Oahu S500.000Maui 165.020 103,000Hawaii 250,000 146,000Kauai 115,000 82,000

When the tax rates were fixed,accordiiiR to law last thevwere based on the 1913 assess-ments, and consequently were farfrom reliable, as shown by the pre-

sent valuations. Based o 11 lastyear's figures, the counties wouldhave received per-

sonal property tax this year: Oahu,$571,094.58; Maui, $204,000; Ha-

waii, $240,000; Kauai. $118,C00.
