V. Dohrmann, the prominent Coast bus iness man, who, coming here with the delegation of business men who visited Japan, remained over for some time, during which he has tahen'aii active part In the discussion of tlie main questions which loomed up be fore the business community. He will leave for the Coast tomorrow, nnd goes away with a feeling of confi dence, based on the observations he has made during his stay, that Ha waii Is entering on a safe and solid career of prosperity. "My general Impression Is that Ha waii Is entering on n new era of de velopment," bald Mr. Dohrmann. "Not like ten years ago, tho boom year, which was not at all a benefit, but rather a detriment, but an eri of solid, alow hut sure Improvement. I came to these conclusions simply from Impresslomi, and impressions are not always to be relied upon, hut all the same there aro certain signs which generally mean cortaln re sults. "In the first place there seems to fi.no reason why the policy of tho Government of protecting the princi pal industry of the Islands, should bo changed.

PREDICTS PROSPER "Next In lmpor.tnnce, If not for a while of i'iual Importance, I consider the Impiovemeutri under way mid contemplated by the Government, which will bring n greul deal of mon- cy Into ciiciitnlluu In the Islands.' From my observations In other places, L, Judge that even after the principal Improvements have been made, the Government will spend a great deal of money here annually. This thcrefoic means that for tho next ten )eais to lome, nt least, n new clement In favor of prosperity for the community. "In uddlthm, the Government will maintain here u large number of of ficials, both In the Army and Navy, and it large number of Midlers nnd sailors,, which vlll not only add tu the money In clivulatlon, but which 1 make Hawaii u social center, which Is bound to be n great attraction to I tourlMs and travelers.
