Editor Independent: There is something of a feeling not entirely l . , , n to real assurance when one realizes they are a thousand miles from land at the mercies of a bit of wood, iron and a little steam. I Well, of course, never for a moment do we forget the keen knowledge ol our good engineer and captain. Ou one of these large ocean liners for a trip to Hawaiian Islands is like taking room and board for a week at the Hotel Portland. Everything is Erst class, the other "boarders" are here from all over the world. For a whole week you have nothing to do but sit around either iu the large social hall, in your cozy steamer chair on deck or lounge in your own lonely appartments. You are given a nice plate of fruit in the morning before getting up. At half past eight a good breakfast in the dining room, ten o'clock beef tea is served you wherever you hap pen to be. A delicious luncheon at 12:30. Afternoon tea at 4 p. m. A sumptuous dinner at 6:30 and if there is a hungry spot about you by that time you can have a supper at 19:30. Ibese meals are all included in the price of your ticket 011 leav ing the dock at San Francisco or Victoria. B. c. .iMreareggratsonUeckandso- cial gatherings in the evenings. A week on an ocean liner is worth six month schooling. You meet and talk with those of other lands. You iflrn Bnmtv1;t,lT nn ; ii, - iuuay we are nan way to uonoiu lu. The sea has been like a placid bay not a case of seasickness and each meal is like a great banquet, every one in good humor and hap py. Tonight we are going to have a comet party we will view it about two o'clock in the morning The evenings are glorious and as we are nearing the tropics and the south seas one is inclined to remain out in their steamer chair until far into the night. We are watching the flying fish today and they are indeed very in teresting. You can hardly believe they are really fish that fly at such distances and so far out of the wat er. The coloring is like the plum mage of some beautiful bird. W 1. I t r .1 :.t . tbe sight of one ship. That is one reason tor no acci dents between ships on this route. It is a grand sight to see the sun Come UD like a creat kill of fire from ..... . . t ,. , uul luc aim go uown Deninu the horizon and you seem to see it for a long time through the water, then the cloud effect is beautiful and sublime. For one who enjoys astronomy (and most people do) there is an unobstructed opportun ity for study. There is no place where a moonlight night appeals to one like when lar out at sea. It seems a guide board to the mariner and a protector to the traveler when mues irom me norae 01 loveu ones. If a person has never had a long sea voyage they have missed an inspir ing and imposing condition of life. Tis true one is apt to "miss much" and willing to "miss still more" if it relieves certain "all gone" feel ings that often overtakes the trav eler. Sea sickness is one that re ceives no sympathy it never kills and is soon forgotten. If one is en route to the Hawaiian Islands it is well worth a real bad sea sickness and on your return trip, no matter what is cast over you will silllhave with you that longing desire to visit the Paradise of the Pacific. Honolulu, Aug. 11. We landed here right on time the morning of Aug. 9th. just at day break the ON BOAT TO HONOLULU TOZIEK WEATHEKKED III ) IU J II Ul II 1 AJ.Wll outlines of land were visible. My! how blessed land is when it has been out of sight for a week. The doctor came on board as usual and "inspected" all passengers and crew to see that no contagious disease enters the Island. I was certain of passing if he did not see ray loot for it resembled a genuine case of lep rosy. Fnroute here I stopped over at Cottage Grove to visit Miss Anna Oglesby and Mr. and Mrs. D. M.C. Gault. We took a thirty mile ride on a train up in the mountains to Bohemia. While the train was standing a large tree was felled go ing down with a tremendous crash parallel with the train. There was no danger until it hit another giant of the lorest and sent it directly at our car. We weie compelled to jump about six feet to the ground and run for our lives. Well as for me I struck the earth with a thud that gave my left ankle a terrible sprain and twisted my limb in such a way as to lay me up even at this late date. What became 'of the tree? Well, it fell 60 near us that life wasn't worth calculating on for a moment, and if I live a hundred years, memory can never efface the vision of that tree coming at me The iright equalled my experience in the Sau Francisco earthquake. But here I am again in the beauti ful city of Honolulu my third trip. One would naturally suppose that a summer in a tropical climate would be unbearable I can not notice any difference letween this and Portland. The nights are cool and thus far I have not seen a mosqui to. Oh, the gorgeous array of blossoms, the ornamental trees have the most brilliant coloring. I will leave here September 4th with a party of eight Hawaiian young ladies who are to make a tour through the Pacific coast states. It is my intention to visit Hillsboro and Forest Grove with them. They are college graduates and several are iine musicians they all sing. The girls can hard ly wait to get started having never been away lrom the Island it will be a gieat trip for them. They re present the best families and deserve the most cordial treatment from all with whom they come in contact. They are just out for a pleasure trip but will not be backward about singing or playing when an occa sion presents itsself. I will write again soon. Epyth Tozif.r Wkatherrkd. Subscription contests are being worked to a irazzle by various news papers, in which young ladies are induced to enter the contest with the hope of getting a valuable prize or making a desirable trip. The editor of the Graphic has never tak en much stock in these contests, for they always bring sore disapoint ment to a large number of the par ticipants, even when the contest is conducted on the square, which is not always done, and we will hesi tate a long time before we will ever again ask any young lady to enter such a contest.

LYTLE HAS XO IXTKISKST IX THE U.MTEII It.UMVAYS His Name Was Used to Lend Considerable Strength to the Project Not Even an Oflicer of the Railways Co. From the Portland Journal. The failure of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bank has developed the fact that IJ. K. Lvtle, president of the Pacific Railway & Navigation Company, has no iuterests in the United Railways. He was selected some time ago for president, it be ing thought by the promotors of the lines in the United Railways scheme that his name would lend considerable strength to the pro jects. Mr. Lytle decided at that time that the United Bail ways would strengthen the position of the P. R. & N., for it would give an entrance to the city over the iuterurban road from Hillsboro that is projected by the United Railways. He expect ed to take up the United Railways' schemes and aid in their construc tion work of the T. R. & N. that he did not take time to attend the meetings of the directors of the Uni ted Railways and qualify for presi dent. He is not interested in the United Railways, despite informa tion given out to the contrary some weeks ago. W. L Beuharn, presi dent of the company, whom Mr. Lytic was to succeed, still retains his office and it is expected be will continue to do so, as Mr. Lytic does not expect to assume that position W. II. Moore, president of the bank, has interests in the United Railways and it was his friendship for Mr. Lytle that induced the lat ter to consider the proposition fav orably. From the Oregnnlan. The suspension of the Oregon Trust & Savings bank in no way affects the affairs 'of the United Railways company adversely. The bank was simply acting as trustee holding the stock and bonds in es crow, and they are in the -atne con dition as before. While the bank was the medium of disbursing the funds used in con struction, no large account with it was kept any considerable length of time. The bills as they accrue are met by the syndicate, and as soon as the funds are deposited they are checked out. so that it happened HIILHOI There's a lot of satisfaction in .1 shoo which after month' of wi-ar, needs only polish to "look like new."

Our aytiQELP). j n f V NOT THE OWNER that the company was not a loser by the suspension. Mr. Lee said that although it is not usual for men to build a rail road with their own money, the United Railways' lines are being constructed by money from the pockets of the owners. They are pushing the work as fast as good construction work can be doue, and have a large amount of rails on hand. The work will be crowded until the city lines are completed, the overhead work is done and the line to the Catholic cemetery is laid. An electric locomotive for work on Front street has been purchased and arrangements tor cars are being made. Mr. Lee added that if left alone the syndicate would complete the lines as originally planned. C. H. McBride, one of the six men comprising tbe united Rail ways syndicate, came from Sau Francisco to Portland Wednesday on telegraphic advices that the bank had suspended, and yesterday his attorney, Charles A. Lee of San Francisco, arrived here. Both men are here to assist in making new arrangements relative to the meth ods of carrying on the syndicate's business. E. E. Lytle, who was some time ago reported to have purchased the United Railway company and later was credited with having become a member of the syndicate of seven men owning the road has no inter est in it and never invested a dollar in the property.

Mr. Lee at tbe Portland hotel last night said: "As to the members of the syndi cate owning and constructing the United Railways, I will say tbat Mr. Lytle is not one of them and has no interest in the company. At the syndicate was originally formed it was understood that Mr. Lytic would come in and he was allotted an interest. They Don't Want It Cancelled. Portland Oregoulaa. Public utility franchises will be the storm center when tbe council meets in regular session next Wed nesday afternoon and from present indications before adjournment ia taken there will be in existence three fewer of the grants that the city fathers have distributed so free ly in the past. The privileges acheduled to be canceled are the street railway franchise of the Ore gon Traction Company, the heating franchise of the Portland Railway. Light and Power Company, and the franchise granting to the Peo pie's Market Association use of one of the blocks owned by the city. While the revocation of these franchises has been recommended by the street committee and is evi dently favored by a majority of the council, it will not be accomplished without strenuous opposition from those who hold the grants. Tbe United Railways, which now holds the Oregon Traction franchise, and the Portland Railway, Light and Power Company are both expected to be represented when the council meets. They will contend that such action at this time would be rank injustice and will show that they are now busy Installing the plant and electric line authorized by the franchises. The People's Mar ket Association will probably not make so emphatic a protest, but will doubtless ask for a continuance 01 their privilege under a new fran chise. The nullifying of the three ordi nances affected was first recommend ed by Mayor Lane in messages sub- Cootlnurd on Laat Pace. no better made.
