Editor Gazette: I promised you a let
ter on Honolulu, bo I will try and redeem
mv promise. We were ooonea to leave
Sau Francisco on "'The Monowai' at 2 p.
in. July 26th, and friends had come down
to say good-bye and see us sail; but the
Australian mails were seven hours late and
we Had to wait for them. In the mean
time we returned to the city and about 6
p. ra. took a "French dinner" at a swell
restaurant it was the last meal I ate for
two whole days. Promptly at 9 p. m. we
teamed out into the bay and I immediately
retired and stent soundly, but awoke the
nest morning, oh! so sick. Seasickness is
something which I am not equal to describ
ing On the whole our sail was very pleas
ant tfie sea, calm and smooth; the service
and table, excellent; the officers, polite and
obliging; and the passengers, neuial, intel
ligent and communicative. Each day grew
. warmer as we approached the tropics and at
last thin clothing became a necessity. The
flying fish in large numbers would arise out
f the sea, spread their tins' and sail a full
hundred yards or more out of the track of
the vessel. On the morning of the seventh
day we sighted land. On the left Molofcai,
the home of the lepers to which all in
fected with this lingering death are ban
ished for life. There every provision is
made for the comfort, health, medical and
spiritual attendance oi meso lira uumrtu
nte,in one of the healthiest and must beau
tif ul valleys of the islands. To our right lay
Oahu.'of which Honolulu (our destination)
is the metropolis and the only seaport and
harbor on the islands. Ju.t outside of
the harbor we are met by the health offi
cers and a pilot who conduct us safely to
"the haven where we would he," through a
narrow channel, between submerged walls
of coral. The harbor proper is tilled with
canoes, which dart athwart the waters
like living creatures, and litteied with the
curly headed cocoauutsof native youths,
who swim around the vessel and dive like
water-nymphs for the nickle, which is
thrown near then by passengers an ex
tremely interestiui; sicht. At 3 l. m. we
laud, glad to be once more upon terra tirma.
The Hawaiian republic consists of five
principal islands: Hawaii, 4210 square
miles; Maui, 760 square miles; Oahu, 600
square miles; Kauai, 500 square miles, and
Molokai, 270 square miles, upon which the
main portion of the iuhabitauts reside and
where the principal industries are located;
jf Lanai, 100,000 square acres; Kahoohwe,
20,000 square acres, and Niihan. 70,000
square acres, wher the population is very
parse; and of three larreu rocks, Molokirii.
Lebua and Kaula the scenery is varied,
including barren wastes, picturesque val
leys and sublime mountain scenes. The
climate is said to tie the mrfst perfect in the
world at the seashore a perpetual summer,
from 65 degrees to 85 degrees, but by as
sending the mountains, more bracing
weather cau be obtained, even to the tem
perature of perpetual frost.

I visited their public schools; Kameham

tional church; Queeu Emma's hospital; the
home for aged aud and infirm native; the
insuiie asylum, the Young Men's Christian
Association building, the public library
and reading room aud the penitentiary and
found all keeping abreast of the times, in
excellent condition and doing effective
work. 1 also visited the Masonic and Odd
Fellows lodges and fouud them both pros
eriug. There are several native churches,
the Congregational, aud the Church of Eng
land and Roman Catholic .cathedrals, m all
of winch services are regularly conducted.
AH have pipe organs as a rule, the siugiug
is good and the services devotional aud in

aea bathing is delightful. One iniypluuge
for hours in its warm, iuvigoratiug water,
And enjoy its long easy swell as it sweeps
over a smooth, sandy beach, witli no fear of
undertow or of any tinny monster, and
without the least danger of catching cold.
It is a lovely sport and the bathing must be
.experienced to be fully appreciated.
The roads in aud arouud the city are
kept in excellent condition, and all points
of interest cau be reached by the horse cars
and omnibus lines.
The ladies, especially the natives, all
. wear "Mother-Hubbard" gowns, aud the
men light trousers aud coats (without vests)
and negligee shirts. Most ladies go in car
riages, but when on horse back they ride
straddle; they do their shopping without
alighting from their carriages and pay even
ing calls, unbonnetted and unattended. It
is not considered indelicate for merchants to
wait upon their lady customers in their
ehirt sleeves, and everyoue is expected to
lounge at least a part of each day.
Honolulu is well supplied with- daily
newspapers, both morning and evening,
which are ably edited and conducted, aud
" represent both sides o' tue political situa
tion. The former palace has been refitted and
is now known as the Executive Building,
in which the president of the republic and
his cabinet have their office.
The government is at present a republic,
with Honolulu for its capital. Its constitu
tion is largely taken from oar own, with
uch modifications as their peculiar condi
tions required, or our own experience has
proven to be wise. It is a strong central
government, which manages all municipal
and state, as well as national affairs. I had
the pleasure of meeting President Dole and
of being entertained by Hon. S. M. Damon,
minister of Finance. I found 'them both to
be broad, able, intelligent and practical
men. who believe that "a public office is a
public trust" and who impressed me with
the conviction that the good of Hawaii lay
aar to their hearts.
The people are very hospitable, kind and
Attentive to visitors, and I was entertained
t either loach or dinner every day that I
was in the city. In every instance I found
my host and hostess to be charming, intelli
gent, cultured and well educated people,
who would be a credit to any refined,
Christian community. 1 also met the rep
resentatives of our own government to
whom I am indebted for personal kind
nesses. J. D. L.
A $55,000 Enterprise.
Prospects are favorable for the establish -meut
of a large lumbering plant on the line
of the Oregon Pacific near the crossing of
the Breightenbush. E. A. Hoe, a San
Francisco capitalist and an experienced
lumberman, who was here Wednesday for
the purpose of consulting Receiver Clark in
regard to freight rates on lumber, was seen
by a Gazette representative relative to the
matter. Mr. Roe said, "We are lining to
build a mill if satisfactory trallio rates can
lie obtained from the Oregon Pacific. The
present rate oil lumber from Puget Sound to
San Francisco is $t per M. Oue thousand
feet of green lumber weighs about 2800
pounds. If a rate not to excend $5 per M
can be had, we will be able to enmpeto with
the Sound lumbermen aud work on the
mill will commence at once.
When asked what capacity the mill
would have, Mr. Roe remarked, "It is our
intention to build oue having a capacity ot
75,000 feet every ten hours. The business
will be knowu as the Enterprise Luinlier
company and will manufacture almost ex
clusively for the Sau Francisco trade. Our
investment all told will be iu the neighbor
hood of $55,0'J0. Ot this amount $35,000
will be used iu constructing the mill proper.
We have already purchased 700 acres of
choice timber and have the purchuse of
several other tracts iu the vicinity under
consideration. Mr. Clark is to give us his
answer tonight. If this is favorable work
will bey in at once aud the enterprise will
be iu operatiou by the middle of December
or the tirst of January.
"The plant will be what is known as a
double mill, and will employ, all told, "5
meu. The engine wi.l be 350 horse power.
Lumber will all be sized to exact dimen
sions, both iu width and thickness as well
as in length. In sawing the logs b ind saws
will be used as they give better satisfaction,
and when numerous cuts are made several
feet of lumber are saved with each log.
"The logging will be done," said Mr.
Uoe, "by means of the C-iitoriii i steam
process. This logging by steam is a new
thing and has ouly been iu use about two
years. It is operated by a stationary en
gine detached from the mill and hauls logs
by means of a wire cable that works over a
large drum. By the tue of thii device
logs are brought to the mill for a distance
of a mile aud a half through the woods aud
does away with the use of cattle entirely.
This results iu a saving of something like
51.50 per M over the present system of
logging when cattle are used."
Mr. Roe says the timber in the vicinity
of the proposed mill site is unexcelled.
While the superior quality of the product
of the Enterprise Lumber company will not
allow them to commaud a fancy price, it
wilt give them a preference of sale over
Puget Souud lumber and that is worth a
good deal.
The Gazette trusts the enterprise will
materialize aud will wish them unbounded
success iu their business operatiou.
Celebrated by the Seaside.
A party consulting f sixteen congenial
Corvallisites drove over to Otter Rock from
Newport one day last week. After arriv
ing at their destination the day was pleas
antly spent iu sight seeing until evening,
when one of the party suggested that two
members of the company, Mr. and Mrs.
John Simpson, had been united in the holy
bonds of matrimony jast five years, and
proposed that the party turn in and cele
brate their woodeu weddiu iu an appro
priate style. It was hardly possible, how
ever, to celebrate such an event in an ap
propriate manner in a camp by the sea
shore, but one of the ladies had a freshly
hiked cake, which was dubbed, wed.
ding cake, vintage 1S89, aud from the well
stocked larders of the party, a sumptuous
luncheon w is spread, to which all did
ample justice. Members of the party had
taken their regular outius; appetite along
and as a result only a few crumbs of the
spread remained to tell the story of the
mirriage least. During the evening toasts
were proposed aud responded to and the
time until 11 o'clock was filled up with
stories, music and mirth when the com
pany repaired to their tents, after wishing
Mr. and Mrs. Simpson a long and pleasant
journey through life. w
Among those noticed around the camp
fire were: Mr. and Mrs. John Simpson,
Mr. and Mrs. Teil Pernot. Mr. and. Mrs.
Lewis Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. F. M. John
son and two daughters, Mrs. Emily Pernot,
Mrs. S. A.Hemphill, Mack-Hemphill and
Mr. Jack Burrows.
Edward Allen and wife aud two child run
arrived in Corvallis last Monday direct
from Morris, Michigan, in which city he
has reside! for several years. He was at
tracted to Corvallis by reading the Gazette,
to which paper he has In en a subscriber for
several months, and intends to locate here
permanently. There is but one objection
wo find in welcoming Mr. Allen to our
midst and that is quite a serious one: His
business for twelve mouths just preceding
his departure for Oregou was that of post
master under the present administration.
Brace the Nerves.
Sedatives and opiates won't do it.- These
nervines do not make the nerves" strong, and
failing to do this fall short of producing the
essential of their quietude vigor. . And
while in extreme cases and these only of
nervous irritation such drugs may be advis
able, their frequent use is highly prejudicial
to the delicate organism upon which they
act, and in order to renew their quieting
effect increased and dangerous doses event
ually become necessary. Hostetters Stomach
Bitters is an effcient substitute for such per
nicious drugs. It quiets the nerves by brac
ing, toning, strengthening them. The con
nection between weakness of the nervous
system and that of the organs of digestion is
a strong and sympathetic link. The Bitters,
by imparting a healthful impulse to the di
gestive and assimilating functions, promotes
throughout the- whole system a vigor in
which the nerves come in for a large share.
Use the Bitters in malaria, constipation, bil
lioua and kidney trouble.

A new sort of barley has beeu propagated
in North Dakota that promises to fill a long
felt want. In that state the average yield
has beeu from 33 to 40 bushels per acre. It is
both beardless and is without a hull, which
results have been obtained after years of
scientific experiments iu cross fertilization.
A sample of this nev variety was grown at
the experiment station here during the
present season and Prof. French hopes to
have it generally introduced throughout the
state within a few years. As it contains
more nearly the composition of corn than
any other grain grown, its introduction into
this state will be a boon to Oregon farmers.
Writing to the Gazette under recent
date while on hoard the steamship Aus
tralia, Professor John D. Letcher says that
as a whole he has had a very pleasant trip
sea-sickness excepted. At the time of
writing he was four days out from Hono
lulu on his way to San Francisco, and so
far had not taken a meal outside his state
room. "The sea is perfectly smooth," he
says, "but the ship rolls like an old tub."
The Professor reached San Francisco the

Why is it that so little- clover is grown in
the Willamette valley? Experiments car
ried on at the college disprove the common
saying among farmers "that clover cannot
ba grown succeasfnlly in Oregon." Last
year from a field of 20 acres 69 tons of hay
were harvested and this year from the
same field over CO tons were cut. It makes
excellent feed besides restoring to the
ground upon which it is raised, many of the
properties that are exhausted by a succes
sion of gram crops.
E. Hofer, of the Salem Journal who is
gaining considerable notoriety of late as a
corn crank, has written Prof. .French for
information and assistance in the arrange
ment of a corn exhibit at the coming state
fair. It is the intention of the committee
having the matter in charge to utilize the
building heretofore used by Mariou county
for her fruit exhibit, by turning the same
into a corn palace. Some dozen varieties of
Corn will be taken from the college and
with what can be gotten from over the state
a very creditable showing of that industry
will be made.
If there is anyoue in Benton county who
needs the patience of Job and is entitled to
the sympathy of the entire community it is
Frank Brown. Two weeks ago he had a
felon lanced that grew on one of his fingers
and now has another one ready for the sur
geon's knife. To add to his misfortunes he
suffered a fracture of the collar bone yester
day that will lay him up for several weeks.
While unloading wheat at the Boonevitle
warehouse Thursday morning, the team at
tached to the wagon became scared and ran
away, throwing Frank onto the warehouse
platform with such force as to cause the in
jury spoken of. The team was stopped be
fore any further damage was accomplished.
On arriving iu town the patient was taken
to Dr. Lee's office where he received surgi
c.d treatment and is now resting com
fortably. T. M. Hamilton made a flying trip to
Eugene this week. On bis return Wednes
day afternoon, he claimed to be in posses
sion of considerable data regarding some
of the band boys aud their numerous lady
friends whose acquaintance was made last
4th, while the boys were up there cele
brating. Oue of these young men who is
known to be iu receipt of tri-weekly com
munications, written in a lady's hand and
post marked at Eugene, had held the com
rnisary sergeant up at a street corner, aud
was making frantic appeals to that gentle
man '.'to keep the matter dark as it would
seriously impair my chances with auother
lady who doesn't live at Eugeue," when the
reporter passed, and the loud talking
lapsed into a whispered conversation, so
that nothing further could be learned as
to whether the matter is to be kept quiet or
not.
Last Friday County Judge Hufford and
Commissioner Chambers returned from in

paid 37 for an extra approach, lumber and

wing dam, recently built by residents of
the valley with the aid of S150 appropriated
by the county court, was examined. This
dam was built for the purpose of prevent
ing the river from dividing near the present
bridge, which it has threatened to do ever
since the occurrence of a land slide several
years ago. Had the river been successful
in its attempts to cut a new channel, two
bridges would have been necessary instead
of one. This work gives promise of prov
ing a success.
