MAIN CONTENTS OFCARTER'S MESSAGE

Following arc the principal contents of the message of Gov-ernor Carter to the Legislature:

Gentlemen of tfao Scnato and Houso:At tho dawn of an industrial era,

bright with hopo and full of promisefor tho future, you nro assembled heroto consider tho welfnro of Hawaii Nei,whoso loynl pconlo you represent.

DeVoutly grateful to Him who holdsour destiny in His hand, for tho bless-ings vouchsafed us in the past, let us,dischnrge tho duties now devolving up-on us in such mannor as will provo uswortny 01 continued .favors In the fu-ture.

The bionnial period now closing hasboenj eventful. It was marred by anindustrial depression, tho crisis of whichhas fortunatoly passeu. During its ex-istence, there has been n chango in theexecutive, a special, session of tho Leg-islature, tho appointment to tho o

Court of new Judges, nnd a larg-er number of minor changes than usual.

Procciung tho Inst election, for thofirst timo in our history ns a Torntory,a campaign was made with thrco political panics in 1110 uoiu and nenco thorosult seemed moro pronounced than atformer elections. Tho overwhelmingsucccss of any political pnrty should.among its representatives, innka for--

Watson appeared for tho contestant,.ludgo Onlbrnith sanl that no witnesseshad been subpoonned, as it was notknown whether tho contcstco wouldbo ready to go on villi tho case. Glly-so- n

Bell was sworn as interpreter,whereupon Watson procccdod to readtho notice of contest which was filedin evidence.

W. r. Ervlng, who was Secretary oftho Democratic Central Committee attho Inst election, was tho first wit-ness called. Ono of tho very first ques-

tions ashed by Judge Galbraith, whoconducted tho examination, was ob-

jected to on tho ground that it wiiirrelovnnt and immaterial. Judge Doloordored notice of tho objection bomado on tho record, but ruled that thoquestion should bo nnswercd. Tho courtstated that ho would rulo out onlysuch questions as wcro purely irrele-

vant, but would not pass on points oflaw. Tho objections mado by tho 'a

counsel would bo entered ontho record, so that tho higher tribunalcould pass on theso points.

At this point Watson proceeded toroad tho formal charges of Iaukea,which gavo in detail tho various UV

ntnnros of offenses neainst tho dection laws, which aro alleged to havotaken plnco in tho general election lastNovember. Tho charges dwell on thonumbered ballot question, stating tunton account ot tho mannor in which thoelection was conducted, tho way thovoters votod coulu bo and was asccr-ininn- d

riie Senate caucus met at three o'clock yesterday afternoon

anil very promptly disposed of the business of getting its organiza-

tion ready commence the business of the legislative session the

first thing this morning.The House met at 7:30 last night at Republican head-

quarters, anil was a flash in the pan. The contest for the Speaker-

ship, therefore, will be fought out in open session on the floor ofthe House today where all may sec. It was clear, last night, thatthe Long forces considered that the adjournment of the caucuswithout action was a victor)'. Long himself voted for the adjourn-ment. So did Aylctt. Coelho wanted it, although he tried to ac-

complish the same thing in another way. And Pali twice madethe motion to adjourn, the Chairman refusing to recognize hissecond the first time.

On the other hand, Knudscn voted against the adjournment.So did Rice of" Kauai, one of his most ardent supporters. Rice, infact, was inclined to be grievously discouraged over the way thething had gone, and' Sheldon of Kauai was very earnest in wantingto bring matters to a vote on the Speakership last night.

Nevertheless, it was not an unmixed Long victory. Grcenwcllof Hawaii, who has been counted as among the Knudscn supporters,faorcd adjournment because he thought it was better to fight thething out in epen session rather than make a nomina-tion and run the chance of falling down on it in the House, ashappened two years There is reason to believe that others rof

those who voted for the adjournment were actuated by a likemotive. And there were some who thought the public interestwould be best served by a fight in the open, although it is not surethat a fight on the floor will be a fight in the open. There is thesecret ballot. Perhaps those who favor that, too may be worked.

The caucus of the House last night was the second that hadbeen held during the day. There was a pretty full meeting in theafternoon when Lewis of Iawaii called the caucus to order, but amarked disinclination get down to business. It was even pro-

posed to name the inferior officers ahead of the Speaker, as a meansof fighting away from the main issue and perhaps of confusing it

It covered a political trick too old even to be tolerated bypeople who were only learning the game. And at last the afternooncaucus broke up without doing anything at all, an adjournment be-

ing taken until 7:30 p. m.All the members were present but Fernandez of Hawaii when

Mr. Lewis called the caucus to order in the evening. It was ap-

parent from the start that there was a plan on foot to talk againsttime, but evidently nobody had posted Mr. Lilikalani of the FourthDistrict, because he got the floor as soon as the meeting was, calledto order and in a long speech in Hawaiian placed Carlos Long innomination for Speaker.

Then nobody said anything for a long time. Presently Mr.Rice of Kauai arose in his place and asked, softly: "Mr. Chairman,would you please state the objects of this meeting?"

"That is for the members to say," said Mr. Lewis.Mr. Coelho of Mauii arose with the evident purpose of staving

off a vote on the organization, but he wanted do it by takingup the matter of selecting the committees of the House, an un-

heard of thing; saying what the subordinate organization should be,and adopting rules.

Harris did not approve of this at all. "We are here to nameour officers," said the statesman from the Fourth, "or we are not.If we are not, then we arc simply wasting time. And in outerthat we may get at the sense of this meeting, as to whether we

U. S. District Attorney;Brcckons was called into tho confer-ence and Mrs. Jacobson was told o

Tho foreign value of tho goods was.probably about $350. Tho duty added-bring- s

tho nppraiscd valuo to about$350. Tho law provides tho penalty,for smuggling snail bo trcblo tho ap-praised value, which would bo in

lady told enough to mnko the caso-stic-

all tho tighter. At that,asked what thoy would havo-t-

"No, sho has not," snnppedwoman "except me."

he forfeited and somebody else givena chance."

"New people would not have themoney shoved nt them nny quickerthan, we would," said Mr. Peck.

C. M. Cooke did not think thatof Mr. Peck was unreasona-

ble; If he could give any assurance,that he could finish the road, even asfar as Hakalau, In two years, thenhe should be given the extension ask-ed for.

"You think he should havo three orfour months to find out whether hacan raise the money?" asked Govern-or Cnrter.

"I do," replied Mr. Cooke.L. A, Thurston then arose nnd gave

"It does," replied Mr. Thurston."It will require no action by the legis-

Mr. Peck."None," unld Mr. Thurston. "The only

Attorney-Gener- al Andrews had necrseQn tho franchise ot tho Hllo-Kohnl- n,

THE COLONIAL PROJECT.

Without making specific recom-

mendations, the Governor draws. In

his message to the Legislature, a very

nltractlve sketch of the Insular type

of government, ns exemplified In I'ortoRico, and contrasts It with the Terri-

torial organization here. Porto Ricoccps Its own Income, regulates Its

own Immigration, levies Its own

revenue taxes. Is exempt from the

American coastwise shipping laws, is

not restricted a,s to special legislation

and enjoys absolute free trade with theUnited States. In other words It hasthe privileges and Immunities of an-

nexation and none of the burdens anddrawbacks by which Hawaii, as theprice of Its Territorial dignity, hasbeen visited.

Itut for one or two things the exchange of llawitll'fl present organiza-tion for that of Torto Rico would beIdeal: but these things are so Importantto the well-bein- g of Hawaii that wewonder they should have been over-looked In the Governor's message.

What guarantee have we, for exam-ple, that, If Hawaii became nn Insularpossession, it would continue to enjoyfree trade with the United States? Notreaty can be made on the subject, nsHawaii Is no longer a treaty-makin- g

power, and even If It were, treatiesmay be abrogated. A special or a gen-

eral law may be passed hut the elementof finality Is still lacking As Hnwallstands. It" free trade rights are estab-lished by the Constitution of the Unit-ed States and there Is no danger thatthe Territory will ever be deprived ofthem. Hut ns an Insular dependencyHawaii would be the mere creature ofCongress; and If an Interest with muchmoney and many votes should go be-

fore that body protesting against thefree admission of competing products,created by "pauper labor," how couldwe, with our slight influence it Wash-ington, protect ourselves7 Dut for theSpanish war wo should have lost ourreciprocity treaty. Might not a dozenpossible contingencies compel us to giveup the privilege of free trade?

It must be remembered, too, that ItHawaii became a. colony and used Uspower to flood the Islands with Asia-tics, that very fact would arouse theAmerican labor men against us andthey, with the mainland sugar prod-ucers, would naturally undertake topunish us through a tariff on ourstaple.

Then there is the land question nndthe question of Americanizing thiscountry, which ought not to be over-looked. One of the. confessed objects nthe Insular scheme Is to get hack thepower to make Indefinite land-lease- s.

By that system the whole countrycould bo so tied up for from fifty toninety-nin- e years that nn Americanpettier could not get In edgewise. Thelife of any land Is not In largo In-

dividual or corporate land-holdin- nndsmall population but In small Individu-al land-holdin- and large population.Once California wns a land, of vast

cattle-ranch- and nobodythrived but the cattlemen. Then thebaronlnl estates weie broken up nnttthe greatest good came to the greatestnumber. Hnwall will not do well todevelop backwnrd Into anything likethe California system of 1S55, even rorthe sake of sugar. It owes to Itself theadoption of what Is best In the Cali-fornia system of 1503 one In which thepeople have had their chance an(i inwhich, at the same time, the old stapleIndustry has expanded. Wo can hnven Hawaii, It we will of sugar, cattle,tobacco, sisal, pines, bananas, dairyproducts and nil the rest or a Hawaiiof sugar alone nnd that dependent, forUs very life, on the fluctuating will ofCongress. Or we may May as wo areand "develop along American lines" tothe Immense advantage of all concern-ed, the sugar men Included. The lattermay not get all the land nnd all theprivileges um iney win do xccure inwhat they havo and will be

As a Territory we know preciselywhere we are and can discount thefuture. We are moored to the rock ofthe constitution and as long ns thorock lasts we shall be safe. Everyoneof our products will have free nccessto the American market. But if weslln the cable nnd imlllvnnfin,-- nffinio unKnown ana practically un-charted seas, nobody can tell, until theevent Itself arrives, where w-- shallbring up and In what shape we shallthen be. Is It not the wiser and thewisest plan to adopt Shakespeare's ad-vice to endure the ills we have ratherthan to fly to others that we know notof?

There seems to be an Increase otJapanese divorce enses ln our courtsthese days. It might bo. advisable forthe authorities to get a line on thesecases, for peradventure there may bea commercial transaction behind one ofthem now and ngaln. The campaignvigorously waged by the Federal off-icials for a couple of years past mayhave suggested some new wrinkles tothe Oriental buyers and sellers ofwives "married In Japan." Thee re-marks have no reference to any par-ticular case now pending, but arethrown out as a word to the wise.

A motion to read the message forth- -

THE SENATE,beoond;day

All the members of the Senate wereIn their seats when President I?en-berg- 's

gavel fell yesterday morning.The Fiesldent of the Senate himself, In

fact, was In his chair for twenty min-utes before the gavel fell, and told themembers of the press that he would beIn the Senate Chamber every morningat 8:30, excepting on Tuesdays andThursdays, to receive bills and com-

munications, and to transact whateverbusiness might be brought to his at-

tention.Immediately following tho roll call,

the clerk announced a message fromtho Governor, but before this was takenup President Isenberg said that thereading of the regular message, whichhad not been completed yesterday,would be taken up and finished. Thospecial message was on engrossed copyof the county act, with a long commu-nication fr.om the Commissioners.

The minutes, however, was the firstorder after roll call, and when that hadbeen concluded, McCandless wanted toconsider the Governor's message read,and let it go at that.

READ THE MESSAGE.

"No, sir," said the President; "theGovernor's message comes first."

And Assistant Secretary SUva beganat page 30 and went on slowly, skip-ping the school statistics by request.When he had labored along well Intothe section of the message relating tothe evils of the present contrnct sys-

tem and the troubles of the Superin-tendent of Public Works growing there-from, Senator Dickey offered to takehis turn at the reading and Sllvn hand-ed the document over to him. He hadread as far ns the forestry section

However, the protest was not enter-tained, "and Dickey went on reading.

"There are only fourteen pages more,"ho said.

He read as far as tho middle ot thecolonial section nnd then turned backthe message to the assistant secretary,who finished the reading.

On motion of Paris, the message wnsreferred to a special committee con-sisting of Paris. Dickey and Dowsett,who are to segregate It and assign Itby sections to the pioper standing com-

mittees.THE COUNTY ACT.

Then It was tho turn of tho CountyAct, and the following communicationfrom the Commission was read:

Honolulu, February 14th, 1905.

Honorable Geoige It. Carter, Governorot Hawaii '

Sir: The Commission appointed byauthority of the Joint Resolution of theLegislature, approved April 39, 1901,submit herewith a draft of a CountyAct.

The Commission has had In view thedrafting of nn act which, while notcomprehending all the features of coun-ty government as usually understood,would provide for a simple form ofrepresentative government, placing themanagement and control of focal pub-lic affairs In the hands of county off-icers elected by the people.

It has been the endeavor of the Com-mission to draw an act which will In noway conflict with the constitutionalprovisions of the Organic Act of theTerritory. For this reason the electionof boards of supervisors has been pro-vided for in a separate bill to be pass-ed after the enactment of the prin-cipal act.

While the Commission expresses theoplnloiY that the election of boards ofsupervisors is not In contravention ofthe Orgarilc Act, still In deference toopinions expressed by others, the ex-pedient above suggested has been re-sorted to In order to avoid a possibleconstitutional defect In the act.

We desire to call your attention tothe fact that no revenue law has beenprovided In the drafting of the net.The question of placing the granting oflicense and the revenue derived there-from In the hands of the county hasnot been passed upon. It will there-fore be necessary for the Legislature toprovide by appropriation the necessary'lunas ror the Inauguration and conductot county government until such timeas other means of revenue are pro-vided.

No provision has been mode for theturning over to the counties of nnyproperty of the Territory. The actprovides, however, that the countiesmay acquire and hold real and personalproperty within their defined bounda-ries, and manage and dispose of thesame as the Interests of the inhabi

This wns signed by nil the Com-

missioners, but had the following noteattached:

I concur In recommendations con-

tained In the above and foregoing re-

port, and endorse the bill submittedherewith, bh far as It goes. I believe,however, that the term "County Gov-

ernment" has a definite nndmeaning; that an act providing

therefor should, as a necessary funda-mental part thereof, confer upon the

respectively, the power to Im-

pose local taxation, and levy and col-

lect the same for county purposes. Irecommend, therefore, that the accom-panying bill be so amended by theLegislature as to embody this fea-

ture.Respectfully submitted,

(Signed) E. M. WATSON.

On completion of the reading, Achlmoved thnt the rules be suspendedand the bills read by title. The mo-

tion passed nnd the bill read bytitle accordingly and passed first read-ing. Like action was taken with ref-

erence to the providing for theelection of n Board of Supervisors.Both bills, were referred to the printingcommittee.

The report raised some discussion,owing to the desire of the new Senatorsfor light as to whether the Senate hadany rules at all. The report wasfinally adopted on motion ot Achl, anawas then sent to the printing commit-tee.

IN TROUBLE

Tho Fcdernl Grand Juiy, which innMaIn Aprll, will have one more case grow-ing out of tho Kolo.i poitoffiro sliorl-ng- e,

according to yenterdny's develop-ments. Very possibly thcro will booven more than ono more ease, butono more Is the lntest development t

date.J. S. Ferry, a lawyer of Kauai, Is tho

man who has last been drawn into a.charge of complicity In the high fi-

nance of Mnnucl A. Hugo. It seemthnt Ferry, according to tho evidence)in tho hands ot the authorities, gotmixed up with Rego ns long ago naJune, 1903. In that month there wns a,

batch of postal money orders drawnon tho Honolulu office, footing up some-where In tho neighborhood of $2,000, In.which Ferry Is mimed both ns drawerund payee. In other words, the ordersshow on their face thnt tho money wanpaid In to' the Koloa office for them byKerry, nnd thnt ho then endorsed therahere as having received the money.Now, whether thU was merely a Regotransaction, or whether Ferry Is actu-ally Implicated In tho deal, I a matterfor the courts to determine, but nt allevents a warrant has been sworn outfor the arrest of Ferry nnd placed In.the hands of Chief Deputy UnitedStates Marshal Winter for service. Fer-ry lives on KaunlJbut Is known to havegone to Hawnll on business, and roMr. Winter left for the big Island onTuesdny nnd by this time In nil prob-ability has his man in custody. He Isexpected to return to Honolulu withtho prisoner on the next Klmiu.

In addition to these Juno money ord-ers, in which tho nnme of Ferry ap-pears as both payer and payee, hisname nlso appears upon money ordersnil through tho series drnwn by Rego.In fact, tho name of Ferry seems tohave been one of Rego's most" valuableassets In working his financial pinna.nut, of course, thcro is no evidence bofar made public to show that Forrywas Implicated In any way beyond theorderi drawn In 1903. As to those, thecharge ngnlnst him Is precisely thesamo thnt has been made ngalnst Re-g-

brother-in-la- Po.lera, who hasbeen held to answer by CommissionerJudd upon tho chargo against hlin.

lulu about noon on the Wilder Stonm-hi- p

Company's staunch steamer Ki-nn-

we spent the afternoon skirtingthe shores of tho various islands ofthe Hnwaiinn group and admiringtheir rugged outlines. Crossing tho

hannel in the night, wo nrrived aboutdaybreak at the shore of beautifulHawaii, the giant of tho group. Fromthis time until 1 p. m. wo sailed alongthe windward side of tho island. Thevista that opened before us on thisvoyage will never vo cliaceu irom ouimemories.

The entire distance to Ililo, barringa few miles of rugged mountain scenery, was ono entire mass 01 enno ileitisin nil stages of development, dottedhero nnd there with settlements aroundtho Bugnr factories, which nro n y

adjunct to tho cano plantations.The shore the cntira distnnco is pro-

tected by a natural seawall 300 to COO

feet in height. Over this wall thoplantation owners dump their sugar bymeans of wiro cables nnd other con-

trivances directly into tho vessels thatcarry their products to tho easterncities. Tho snow-cappe- d summit oflofty Mauna Kca was plainly visibloto the naked eye, presenting a pleasingcontrast to tho tropicnl fields below.Arriving nt Ililo. wo spent tho afternoon vcrv pleasantly in drives aroundtho city, tho most interesting being nvisit to a plantation near by, where,through tho courtesy of Mr. Scott, thomanager, wo wero shown through nmodern sugar factory and saw nil thoprocesses or manufacturing, from tlio

nne to tho finished product. Wo werealso Bliown tho methods adopted forloading tlio sugar on tho vessels.

Leaving Ililo by train in tlio morn'ang, wo passed for twenty miles.through enno field 3 nnd banana farms.Our party were all much interested inwatching the Japanese, both men andwomen, at work in tho cano fields. Attho end ot the railroad wo took stagesnnd passed for a distance of nine milesthrough a junglo of rank tropical vego-tatio-

with nn nbundnnco of fernsof all sizes. As wo nenred tho end ofour drivo thq vegetation beenmo some-what less tropical on account of higherelevation, but nono tho less attractive.'Arriving nt tho Volcano Houso n sccnowns spread before us tlint can ncvorbo forgotten. To tho Bouth lay milesupon miles of solid lnva, whero not asign of vegetation, bnrring an occa-sional scrubby fern, which had 'ob-

tained a foothold in somo of tho crev-ices, was to bo seen. This ontiro fieldwns dormant oxcept for occasionalmasses of steam which issued fromthe crevices. At a distance of nboutthree miles was tho crater of "Hale-mnumnu-

with a donso mass of steamrising from its mouth. To tho west oftis tho lofty summits of Mauna Loa nndMauna Kca presented n beautifulbackground to tho picture On ourarrival nt tho Volcnno Houso wo werotaken in hnnd by Mino Host Lycurgusnnd ins nnable ncphow, Demosthenes,who is tho resident manager. Thoelder Lycurgus enmo tho ontiro dis-tance from Honolulu with us. Duringour stay theso gentlemen havo sparedno pains to mako things pleasant. Theirtables havo been loaded with nil thodelicacies of tho season, most of thofood being rnised in tho immediate, vicinity. Among other delicacies wo werofed on pio made from tho oliclo berry,which grows in great profusion allaround tho hotel. This pio would tempttho palate of any epicure. Tho tnblodecorations consisted of wreaths inadaof wild roses and nasturtiums, withvasos of easter lilies, which wero voryattractive.

As a fitting wind-u- p to our splondidentertainment, our host prepared n na- -

tivo feast or luau, its principal featurobeing a pig roasted by tho natives bymeans ot not rocKs nml ti leaves. Thissupplemented by shortenko made fromwild thimblo borrics, etc., constituteda feast fit for tlio gods, nnu gavo thohost a still warmer place 'n the heartsof his guests.

Tho morning after our arrival wovisited tho largo crater. Tho distancois nbout three miles, nnd can bo mndocither on foot or on horseback. In go-ing to the crater wo followed n traildown tho mountain until wo had

about 3,100 feet, and thencommenced to cross tho barren floldnf lnva. Every foot of tho trip wasvery interesting, na wo bohcld tho lavacracked and broken into nil sorts otfantastic shapes by tho cooling proc-ess, showing hero nnd thero immensefissures nnd again pyramids or conesof all forms and Bhnp'es. Then wo real-ized for tho moment the immenso nat-ural forces that accomplished sncliwonderful results. After crossing orerthis formation for two miles or morowo came to tho crater proper. Herowo looked down into a steamy caul-dron, 700 feet deep, surrounded by per-pendicular walls of solid volcanic rock.This crater has been nctivo nt varioustimes lately, notnoly in 18S1 nnd ISOo.TVo could only wish it wns active now,but havo every reason to bo moro thansatisfied with what wo saw. Furtheron wo wero shown "Madam Pelc'sISeccption Koom," which consisted ofa cavo in the lnva, whero we followedour guide for 200 or 300 foot underthe surface. Afterward wo saw tho"Dovil's Kitchen," where it was hotenough, as a few seconds wns suff-icient for n stay inside. Then wo vis-ited a portion of the lnva field, whereconstant blasts of hot steam are issuing from the surface. Hero wo scorched our souvenir postal cords by thonatural fire. During all this time wowero constantly reminded of Danto'spicture of tho inferno, nnd could easilyimagine where tho Old Bible writersgot their conception of a place of fu-ture punishment, whero hell firo andbrimstone predominated. The balanceof our three days' stay was spent vorypleasantly in visiting objects of inter-est in the vicinity, nmong the mostnotable being tho fern forest, wherowe saw tree ferns 30 to 40 feet high,nnd gnthercd unlimited quantities ofwild thimblo berries from the bushesunderneath.

A GRAZIER'S ANSWER TOM'CANDLESS'S CHARGES

Editor Advert her: The Metropolitan Meat Company is evi-

dently an inant industry whicli needs protecting, and it is fortunatein having such a disinterested protector as Senator McCandlcss,who says that although himself a grazier, he believes in fair play,and that if there is to be any reduction to the consumer in theprice of meat, the grazier should stand a part of it. A few weeksago, as a Metropolitan director, he voted that the grazier shouldstand the whole of it. From what he says, the uninitiated wouldthink that the Metropolitan stockholders were being exploited bythe graziers ground between the upper and the nether mill stonesas it were.

Now what arc the facts? '

The Metropolitan Meat company made a net profit during itslast fiscal year, which ended June 30th last, of over $41,000, on acapital stock of $191,000 or 21 and four tenths per cent not sobad for the hardest times that Hawaii has seen for a decade.

It made this profit during a period when it was engaged in com-

petition for several months, with the Island Meat Co., which cutdown its profits on the wholesale price of beef, to -8 of a centa pound. It no longer has that competition, and is now makinga wholesale profit of one cent a pound, with the consequent resultthat during the last two months its profits have been at the rateof $60,000 per annum, or at the rate of 31 and four tenths per centper annum.

In the meeting of the graziers held on Monday, Mr. McCand-lcss presented figures which lie claimed, with tears in his voice,proved that if a reduction was made to the consumer, as proposed,the Metropolitan company would only be able to pay 10 per centdividends during the coming year, with a surplus over of only $2,000.

This statement was denied by Mr. Waller, the manager of theMetropolitan, who stated that if the reduction were made, the corn-pa- n'

would make nearly, if not quite as much, money as under thepresent schedule of prices, by reason of the probable large in-

crease in consumption.Now what of the grazier? The Metropolitan Meat Company

makes from three fourths to four-fift- hs of its profits by acting asa middle man between the grazier and the consumer. The otherfourth or fifth it makes out of its import business.

What profits docs the grazier make?The answer is, that as usual, the producer gets the little teat

to suck, while the middle man is gorging himself from the mainsupply.

I assert without fear of contradiction that there is not a stockranch in Hawaii today which is paying 10 per cent upon its invest-ment, while a majority of thcin do not pay five per cent; and yetour good Samaritan McCandlcss declares that if the poor abusedinfant beef trust is reduced to the extremity of accepting only10 per cent dividends with $2,000 surpluses on the side, it is thevictim of a conspiracy, and fills the air with his blubbering but un-

called for sympathy, in the face of the declared belief of the man-ager of the Metropolitan and a majority of its directors, that underthe new schedule the Company will continue to make nearly ifnot q'uitc as much profit as it has heretofore.

If at the end of the year the profits of the Metropolitan havefallen off to only 20 per cent, it will be in order for the disinterestedSenator to pass the hat among tjic opulent graziers for the benefitof the distressed corporation. Meanwhile 1 suggest that he savehis sympathy until it is called for, or use it in helping the pro-ducers to get even a miserable id per cent pittance.

Mountain View, Hawaii, Feb. 7, 1903.

FMItnr AilvprMnpr! Vnw thnt tho '

Planter's Association has passed andpublished a resolution to the effect thatthe planters do not wl'h to stand Intho way of the small farmer it is pre In

sumed that we will begin to see someevidence along that line. ns

F. M. Swnnzy, President of the 'Planters' Association says 'How tostay tho emigration of Portuguesewhich this Association deplores Is alsoa problem. If small farming suitedthese people they would probably en a

hegage In it but apparently its attractions are Insutllcieut to keep them Inthese islands.'

I

Just so! The attractions are Insuffl- -cient. Are not the planters largely t0blame? Could not the planters afford 1"to offer them better terms and more '

inducements? The nlanter will -- ...No, we have pnld nil the businesswould permit. tl.... ., .. . . . . .My iiivesiiKiiiion unu rese.iicn, wnicnhas been persevering and continuousfor more than five years back, has ledme to believe differently. The planterhas never offered to the Bmall canegrower such a shnre of the profits asthe Mill could afford. The Portuguesewould readily become small planterson the sugar estates If they were givenn fair shnre of the profits and both thePortuguese and the Mill would makemoney on the Investment.

Much has been paid In the pressagainst Mr. Thurston's ndvoency of thesmall farmer and many Insinuationsmade to the effect that he Is a planternnd buncoed people in Olaa. Not solIt was a God-sen- d to the coffee plant-ers of Olaa that something happened togive tnem a chance to clean up whatlittle they could out of the wreck and,generally speaking, Olaa has no kickcoming ngalnst Thurston. Besides, thefirst contracts which were given outto the small farmer In Olan by theOlna Sugar Company for raising canewere the most fair and liberal thathave ever been offered In these Islands.

Another thing must be taken Intoconsideration. The Olna Company wasJust starting up a large plantation 18where expensive clearing was only onoof the many difficulties and I admitthat the Olna Company wns not ln asgood a position to give liberal termsns the plantations which were longestablished.

OUI ON

AND FARMER

I do not wish to bo understood thatthe Olaa contract offered the farmerwas as fair a share as the mill couldafford but I do say that It offered afairer share than any other plantation

"It will be noticed that the expensefor labor has Jumped 50 per cent: thatmaterial and general expenses have ad-vanced 20 per cent, and that the netproceeds'of sugar have fallen 14 2 percent. At present it Is gratifying tonote that the labor situation Is easierthan It was during last year and thatthe price for labor has dropped about

From San Francisco to New York,the freight per ton of sugar is..$ 7.50

In the Governor's Report, dated Sep-tember 30, 1902, he states that the aver-age cost of production of sugar perton on several plantations on the Islandof Oahu for the crop ot 1901 was $41.13.

ine same report shows that for. theyear 1901 there were told 359,133 tonsof sugar. Now figure up what thatmeans to the Sugar Ring nt Honoluluat five dollars per ton in the way otcommissions nnd you have the nentsum ot (;i,795,G6'i) one million, sevnn

Assembly of two houses. The Governor,

Secretary, Treasurer, Attorney General,

Judgo and Commissioner of Education,executive appointees, nro

mombors of tho Upper House. In addi-

tion to theso tho President nppoints five

moro members, who must ho natlvo Por-

to Itienns. Tho Lower House consistsof thirty-fiv- e elected delepntes.

The Hawaiian Legislature is restrict-ed in regard to special legislation,wliilo thcro is no restriction on tho Por-

to Ricnn legislative body. It may grantspecial franchises and only thoso affect-in- p

quasi public utilities requiro thePresident's npproval. It has alreadycreated municipalities. In this respecttho Porto Ricnn Legislature has greaterlegislative power than tho Constitutionsof somo States allow to their Legisla-tures.

Immigration laws drnfted for condi-tions existing in tho tempcrnto zono ofthe States aro mado to apply to ourtropical, isolated condition. In PortoRico immigration laws aro matters forlocnl legislation.

Our public lands nro managed undorspecial laws enacted by Congress fortho benefit and use of tho pooplo of Ha-

waii. Put, under them, wo are restrict'ed to five-yea- r leases on agriculturallands, whilp somo crops in tho tropicsoften tnko almost as many years to ma-

ture; thus, in order to(gct the lands putto tho best uso our only courso seemsto ho to sell them. It is truo tliat woenjoy either tho proceeds of their salesor the rentals from them, yet their titleromnins in tho Federal Government,nnd tho President may, bv proclamation,sot nsido any of them tor icuerai orpublic purposes.

Titlo to tho public lands of Porto Ri-

co is vested in tho pcoplo of tho island.Tho Attorney General of tho UnitcaStates gavo it as his opinion that thoPrcsidont could not sot nsido a portionof the Islnnd of Culebra for naval pur-poses without tho consent of tho pco-plo of Porto Rico, and he stated in acommunicniion on mu suujeci. mm vuu-gre-

appears clearly to have placedrorto Rico, in this respect, on tho samoplane as a State.

No tariff can bo levied on our products sent to tho mninlnnd. Wo bear ourpart of tho taxes, duties, imposts andexcises to pay tho debts and "providofor tho common defenso nnd generalwclfaro of tho United States of Amer-ica." All importations from foreigncountries, consumed bv our people, paytho regular tariff. Tho receipts fromthe customs and internal rovenucs nrocollected by tho Treasury Departmenton tho same basis as on tho mainland,nnd aro likowiso turned into tho Treas-ury for tho support of tho Federal t.

Our commerco is subjected to thocoastwiso lnws no foreign vessel cancarry passengers or froight botween ourports and tho mainland.

Like Hawaii, Porto Rico has nbsolutofreo trado to and from mainland ports.Put, unlike Hawaii and tho othor Statesand Territories of tho Union, Porto Ri-

co is not required to contribute to thonational defenso or for any other national purpose, its cntiro customs rev-enue, less tho cost of collection by tirorederal Treasury Department, beinghold as a separate fund and turned overto tho peopio of Porto Rico.

Its internal rovenuo is of its ownmaking nnd is at rates somo 40 percent less than those established by Con- -

press. Thus it wii. he seen that everydollar of taxes accruing from its com-

mercial activities, accumulated wealthor other sources, remains in the islnndto bo used for nublic weal in accordance with the policies established byits own local legislative Asscmuiv.

Wo have what is unusual in n Tcrrltory, a Supremo Court similar to thocourts of Inst resort of the variousStates, 'whoso decision is final; nnd nlsoa Federal Court. Porto Rico is equallyindependent in regnrd to its bupremoCourt, nnd is nlso provided with Fed-eral Courts.

The salaries of our officials appointedby tho President aro paid by the Fed-eral Government. Tho pooplo of PortoIiieo pny the salaries of nil their officials, including the Federal Court of-ficials.

Tho foregoing statement must leadany ono who studies tho form of gov-ernment given to Territories annexed tothe Union previous to Hawaii, to thoconclusion that in no othor case in thehistory of tno American Governmenthas the new accession been grantedsuch extensive privileges, nor has Con-

gress, previously, over shown moro lib-

erality toward now teritory than to-

ward us. But it is nlso evident from acomparison of conditions that Porto Ri-

co, ncquircd subsequent to our annexa-tion, is comparatively freo to pursue itsown courso ef development unburdenedby national exactions, and is, in fast,at liberty to work out its own destiny.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS.

Hawaii, with a population of about100,000 people, collected a rovenuo forlocal purposes, in iwub, or somo ?'j,aa.if-022.7-

nnd expended very nearly a likeamount in maintaining the standard ofpublic scrvico to which it had longsinco been accustomed. This revenueis raised by nn income tax of 2 per cent,from licenses, high local rates for pub-lic utilities of all kinds, including landrevenues of some $123,000.00, nnd a taxof 1 per cent on tho actual value of realand personal property and, unlike theconditions in other communities, the re- -

Prior to tho annexation of Hawaii aTerritory was considered a political sta-tus, a period of probation .during whichopportunity wns given to tho inhabi-tants to demonstrate that they werostrong enough nnd hnil enough intelli-gence nnd capacity to be entitled tostntehood. It wns n cruuo method, undermoro or less strict supervision by thoGovernment at Washington, nnd re-

duced to the lowest and simplest formfor tho governing of a sparsely settledfrontier. Por instance, Indian Terri-tory has no organization at all. Alaskais organized without any legislativehody has only n Governor, a Judgo, aMarshal and an Attornoy Gonornl, ap-pointed by tho President, by whom tholaws nro administered. Its progresshas been noticenblo only since tho dis-

covery of gold niul its people nro grad-uates of tho school of patience theyhavo had "ample opportunity to loamto wait."

There is a belief entertained that nnAmerican community must first bo nnorganizod Territory boforo it may bo-co-

n State. This is an error. Therois no such renuiromont in tho Consti-tution nnd precedent is against it. ThoStato of Texas was admitted into tnoUnion without first being made a Terri-tory. Congress has recognized no rulons to population, wealth or area, hutlias been over ready to confer tho bone-fit- s

of Statehood on any communitywhen, in its judgment, it seemed wisoso to do.

Theso facts aro set forth to tho poo-

plo of Hawaii for their careful constdor- -

ntton. isot tor one moineni wouiuhave tho foregoing taken ns an ex-

pression of discontent witli our lot. Inm not a pessimist hut, under tho pres-ent circumstances it would appear as iftho burdens homo by Hawaii will handl-ca- n

her in tho rnco for Statehood. Yet,these very drawbacks may ho her making nnd dovclop in hor a power to nt-tai-n

that great intelligence nnd capacity which, in tho end, will causo nor tooutstrip all rivals. Independence is aquality sought by every American y

ns well as by ovcry Americanldlvidual. It is not compatiuio wuu

our condition, nt present, in thnt woaro mendicants boforo Congress askingfor snecinl recognition of our peculiarsituation and for appropriations to offset, to somo slight extent, a urninwhich, probnbly, no othor Americancommunity sustains.

If it is tho desire of tho peopio to pro-

ceed as at present, work out our owndestiny ns best wo can, then wo mustexpect tho cost of living to Do nigh.Accumulated wealth must bo preparedto contribute in tho future even morothnn-n- t present in order to provido forthe ordinary increase which is foundin tho expansion or ovcry community,nnd no person can expect that portionwhich Is now taken from his lnbor andenergy for governmental support to boreduced.

COUNTY GOVERNMENT AND MU-

NICIPALITIES.

There are voters and leaders of thopolitical party in power who oxpectfrom mo a clear-cu- t statement in refer-ence to tho proposed Countv Act. Prank-ly- ,

lot mo admit my inability to givosuch a statement. I nm not compctontto pass on tho legal aspect of tho ques-tion. I know that thoso trained to thelaw aro by no means a unit in theirsupport of it. Widlo somo havo already been converted, others nro equally confident that Congress nlono posscsses tho pmvor to mako such change-- )

as will satisfy tho demand to whichmany aro plodged.

Our present financial burdens couldnot bo borno woro our Islands less pro-ductive, yet if tho expression of thopolitical parties fully represents thosontiment of tho voters, they at leastscorn to ho willing, bv the adoption ofadditional burdens to undertnko stillgreater obligations. So serious a prob-lem should cause us to pauso and con-sider.

It is my belief that each center ofpopulation throughout tho group shouldhavo somo form of autonomy whichwould gunrantoo to it nt leaBt localcontrol.of n portion of tho public fundsand the expenditure within its bordersof moneys raised by local taxntion, andwhich should bo used for its better-ment in the mutter of public improve-ments.

Each town nnd viliago of a certainstandard of population should havesomo locnl board, with an executivehead, and the protection of publiepeace, public health and local improve-ments should, to a reasonable extent, hevestod in such viliago authority.

Tho officials of these muniaipalitisishould bo kept at tbo least public num-ber, and the salaries or compensationshould be as nenrly nominal as reason-able service will permit.

For a period of time, which as yet itis impossiblo to estimate, a supervisorycontrol should bo retained by someDepartment of tho Territorial Govern-ment, such as that of Publie Works.

To my mind the advantages accruingfrom such legislation would be fargreater than thoso derivable fromCounty Government.

Tno destination of tho Inter-Islan-

(trainer Iwninnl, which sailed yester-

day nftcrnoon nt 3 o'clock under scal-

ed' orders, carrying V. II. Underwood

f New York city, nnd Lo GrandBrown of Rochester, N. Y., is tho

nuso of much speculation. Neithertho officers of tho steamship companynor tho men who chartered tho steam-er would say a worn regarding tho des-

tination of tho vessel or tho purposoof the trip, nnd it is said that no ono

but tho two last named persons reallyInow tho exact object of tho excur-sion. Mr. Underwood told CaptainHamlet of the Hoar, in rcsponso to hisinquiry as to the purposo of tho oxpo-ditio-

that ho might ask PresidentUoosovclt in regard to his responsi-bility, ho being a friend of that dis-

tinguished gentleman. This, with othercircumstances, led some to bcliovo thnt.Mr. Underwood is none other than tholead of tho firm of underwood & Un-

derwood, who linvo probably tho larg-est stereoscopic view establishment inexistence. Ono of tho Underwoods hasfor some time been official photographerfor the President, nnd has accompaniedlim on nil his tours. As tho Arm hasphotographers all over tho world, somoam of the opinion that tho men on thoJwnlnni are going out to tako viowsof tho various South Sea Islands, nndperhaps, the cablo Btation nt Midway.Of course, this is mcro conjecture, butit is as goon conjecturo as tho ma-

jority of stories lloating nround thowaterrout regarding tho mysteriousexpedition.

Captain Hamlet is said to havo toldone of tho boat-boy- s thnt ho under-stood thnt tho destination of tho steam-er was Johnston Island, which lies justeast of tho 170th meridian, about GOO

miles west by south of Honolulu.Thero wcro other reports to tho effectthnt tho expedition was bound for tholost Do Ureavcs island or tno lsiot onwhich tho Lovnnt was supposed toliavo been wrecked. However this maybe, the Iwninnl started west, ns if showcro bound for Knuai. Perhaps shoonly went there, nnd perhaps sho wentfarther. At any rnto, sho took but amonth's provisions, nnd beforo amonth tho mystery will bo solved.

BERREY'S COMMERCIAL REPORT

A slight !rop in the pri if sutrar, due it is plain cjhuirIi, toforced sales at the Atlantic si aboard, has had n jarring effect onthe clients of the members of the Honolulu Exchange. Even thevery best sugar securities are weak nnd trembling on account ofrealization sales of a few hundred tons of raws at New York. Timewas when the market was not so delicately adjusted as to beshocked by such an unimportant and remote turn. IJut in thesedays both operators and investors arc acting in a manner at leastextremely guarded.

Since the first of the year there have been sonic almost funnytransactions in sugar stocks here. A large volume of trading hasbeen by the gamblers in what may be called the listed "lobsters."Even some of the financial big guns dabbled in the mercurial onesand made money. As usual there are flocks of the little fellows whowere unable to get from under in time. It is a sad thing 'in thisstock business that hundreds upon hundreds of shares that haverather a minus value as collateral goes are held by people earningfrom $600 to $1800 a year. Just what will become of a lot of thesepeople it is difficult to say. Perhaps in the last analysis of theirgreed or foolishness or love of venture they wil) make business forthe bankruptcy branch of the Federal Court. The money factorsand wealthy people who have beengilt edged stocks before the top prices were reached arc well satis-fied, for they know they have value received. There remains tobe noted one class of buyers of which very little is heard for theyare sly at it. This refers to those long-heade- d, well balanced indi-viduals who bought and bought at the doldrum figures from earlyin 1903 down to even December of 1904. There are only a few ofthem, but they have done exceedingly well and arc not too meanabout it. They have been willing to let go of a fair amount of stockat a profit of 100 per cent, and over. There may possibly be onevery unpleasant echo of the January stock boom. This will be, if ithappens at all, the outcome of the charge pretty openly made, andnot without some color that there has been an instance or two ofholders of securities as collateral closing out borrowers in a whirl-wind rush and selling the stock practically in their own house-

holds. But with all this the sugar market is good indeed, with cropspromising well and the statisticians weekly showing a greater short-age in the world's supply. It will be a good year for the Islands.General business is being now somewhat benefited by the sugarcondition and merchandising is picking up. Collections are stillrather poor.

Real estate is picking up just a little bit. There is quite alittle building under way in various parts of the city. The touristseason is the very best for manyMoana, Hawaiian and Alexander Young are crowded. Travel tothe volcano is quite heavy. I'lie Promotion Committee people aregiving careful attention to the tourists.

The aI. A. Rego who is in the toils for stealing $27,000 fromthe postofficc at Koloa, with the assistance of his deputy, Spalding,and perhaps others, is the Rego who has been the big merchant overthere for sq many years. Loose methods of doing business may beset down as the cause of his downfall., He has been using "fake"money orders for more than two years, without a breath or sus-

picion being aroused. The legislature of the Territory meets inregular session today and if n' pledges arc to be carriedout much benefit to the whole pqople should accrue from the delib-

erations. There is expectedJn readjustment or an cqualiation ofthe burden of taxes. One of the plans proposed is the merchandiselicense system. No permanent1 good can1 'result, however, from anyhasty law making or makeshift enactment. It were better had therebeen a revenue commission of the authority and industry of thecounty commission. There is something radically wrong in theproportions of our income and outlay, but as intimated, the unsatis-factory situation cannot be remedied ,in a rush. Messrs. Gillulyand McCarthy, well-know- n and capable men, have taken over theRemington tvprcwriter agency under the style of "The HawaiianOffice Specialty Company."Building, has gone out of business
