TRAFFIC WITH HAWAII
SOON TO BE RESUMED
Matson Navigation Company Found a Splendid Opportunity fpr
' Trade Between Portland and Honolulu, and a Steamer
for That Run Will Be Built In Bay City.
"Say to the -merchants of Portland,
whether ther believe It or. not. that, we
did not withdraw oar steamers from ths
l'ortland-Honolulu trade because of dis
couragement. On tha contrary wa wara
encouraged by the way tha buatnaaa
from Portland opened up- Say to thm
that wa will coma back to Portland,
Captain Mataon. head of tha Matsoif
Navigation company or tn r-ranciaco
sent thla message by WW'. Robinson,
who has Juat arrived In Portland via
Han Franclaco from . Honolulu, whither
ha wont acme months a (to aa the repre
sentative of J. Whyte Evana to eetab
' Hah a Joint agency for handling Fort
! land trade with the lulanda.
Owing to unexpected- event tha Hl
lonlaa. which atarted tha trade, waa
withdrawn, to be placed on the way at
San Franclaco for repair, and It waa
' Impossible for the Mataon company to
ret a ahlp to takeXher place on -the
lortlaTtd-JlmQlttlu run, .
.Build Taaarl fat ay City.
- - Captain- - Mataon ha juat - returned
from the east,- where be went to nego
tlata for tha purchase of a vessel ault
able for thla trade." aald Mr. Robinson.
"Ha Informed - ma of tha purpose and
raault of hla -trip, and. bade ma -. aay
to Portland buatneaa man that ha la
till determined to maintain a steam
ahlp line between Portland and tha Ha
waiian islands. He waa unable It Hi
a ahlp In New York suitable -for hla
business, and haa Juat -accepted, plana
for a new reaael that la to be built at
San Franclaco. - , .. .
"Ha informed ma that be did not take
the Hflontaa ' ft of the Portland run
because lie waa dissatisfied, or because
of any unfavorable oondlUon here. He
aald he waa almply compelled to take
care of the trade of hla company be
tween San Franclaco and Honolulu Brat
Ha had contracts 'with four of tha big
sugar plantations In Hawaii to deliver
their ' sugar at San Franolaco wltMn
certain time llmlta. and waa under
heavy bonds to fulfill theaa contracts.
Oo Xnaa Sugar Trade. . ..
. "A soon aa tba HUonlan cornea oft
tha ways aba will be put Into the sugar
trade between Honolulu and San Fran
Cisco, and her alster ahlp will so on the
ware for repairs." .
Theaa are the only two available ships
now operated by tha Mataon company
for coastwise trade. They bad a num
ber of oil vessels, but theaa havs been
sold and' the proceeds will go Into new
ships for tha regular carry Ins trade.' It
la practically certain that as soon as
suitable vessels oftn ba built - or -purchased
tha Mataon company will again

. "Portland can. do a vary large bual
neaa In the Islands," Mr. Robinson said
dlacusalng his stay there. "I : da
voted my time to making ' a thorough
teat of the question, and I found that
the people of the Islands , want our
gooda and want to trade with Portland.
Tba buatneaa Interests will trade with
ns and glve ua their moral support." .
SKATERS GLIDE FOR MILES

some boys dared to tempt the thin crustH
upon the sloughs, but sines. that, time
men. women and children in Increasing
numbers havs skimmed over the frosen

. For the Drat time in nine years Co
lumbia slough baa become a -skating
rink. Here are 85 - miles of skating,
snd the ambitious sportsmen may
travel without' stint. One of the most
popular skating places la Guild's lake,
at the fair grounds.' Several hundred
people were out upon It yesterday and
among the skaters were many children
on sleds. So far no drownings have
been reported and no serious accidents.
Last Bight two -tJuinrsTlaks skaters
found a thin spot In front of ths Gov
ernment building on tha laland In the
old fair grounds, , and, broke through,
plunging : Into tha . freezing 'water up
to their armpits. Their ' mishap was
greeted with, shouts -of laughter from
the - other skaters and they .'quickly
scrambled out. - . ,
The winter larks are now hoping
for a snow, that they may havs coast

not be disappointed. At least, that's
what the weather man says.

Boms months ago the United Railways

route and filed a survey of the Una
from Bay City to a point two miles up

prevent any possibility of being fore
stalled by a steam road. This company,
which has recently been financed by C.
E. Ioss, proposes ultimately- to build an
electric railway between Portland and
beaches In the vicinity of Tillamook
bay, and It la probable that a hard fight
for rights of way on the Wllaon river
route will be precipitated when tbe
atnam .and electric railroad promoters
begin work on the same ground.
The Pacific Railway A Navigation
company at" tbe beginning of its enter
prise attempted to run Its line - from
Forest Grove to Tillamook bay via tha
Wllaon river route, but reconsidered Its
plans and adopted - the route via tha
