A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

Tbe order and &rra»gementA made by Mr. Z. S; BpaldiQK of Kealia, Kanai, to have the gagar from the Walhee Plaatatlozi, Maui, ahlp |»ēd directly irom the port of KahOlui to San Fraxtciāco, ia m Btep in ike right In «eeunnnooon#ioy in the managem6iit and tucc#iful productkm of ssgar. A« we have oft«n stated, nnr ean bt jiised and maau&cltired profitabiy I|L Hawaii nei, if ccmdQcted on the kgltimate baus that other bnsiflWßpfl are Btarted upon, as in other fHgar produdng couctries in the Werld. The complaint made about the disruption and eompleie proetration of Uie sugar induetry we ?.re assured » unfounded. W e hope whon the great desire to amasa sudden wealth on borrowed capital and total lgnoratioe of the businefia hae received its proper eheek, and a weeding out of the weakli&gs who are loudest to cry for help haa taken plaee, that the sugar inda«try wiil be worked upon jawp*r hualMS line», and that thoee engaged in it will curb their lust £or s*dd*s wealth, and reetrtct themselves to a reasonable pfitlrom «ugar culture. Tbie cry of distreBs frora our planters is like the cry of a petted child, and should be discouraged.
