Crown Lands.

Mr.. EDITOR: During the last Legis-
lature bill was brought before the
House by Hon. j. E. Bush, and you,
MIR. Editor, commented favorably on
it. The object of the bill was to have
the leases of the Crown lands sold at
auction in the same manner as the
Government lands are. A great deal
was said pro and contra in the mat
ter, and finally the bill was killed.
The opponents of the bill contended
that the Grown lands were the pri-
vate property of His Majesty, and
that he had a right to dispose of
them as he saw fit. Mr. Bush and
the supporters of the bill argued
that as the Kings estate virtually
was in the hands of receivers, the
disposal of the Crown lands were a
matter touching his creditors and
not the King personally, and further
on that by an increased income from
the Crown lands the taxpayers would
be able through their representatives
to lessen the appropriations for His
Majesty and the royal household.
Several instances could be and were
mentioned at the time of leases be-
ing granted through favoritism and
corruption, but the present Govern
ment was loud in its protestations
that such acts belonged to bygone
I'll,
When Mr.. Thurston was member
of the Cabinet he protected without
fear the interests of the taxpayers,
even when they clashed with the
pockets of the King or the capitalists
of the country, but the last Legis-
lature-a wonderful mixture of stu
pidity and corruption-showed its
inclination to kiss the royal foot
again and undo what Thurston with
an honest intention had done.
Through Noble w. H. Cornwell the
so-called unassigned land bill was
introduced and passed through the
House, whereby certain lands were
taken from the Government and
given back to the Grown. Full of
gratitude to the noble gentleman for
his uninterested assistance in getting
these lands back, the commissioners
of the Grown lands have granted to
Mr.. Cornwell twenty years. lease
of some of the most valuable of the
above mentioned lands for $500 a
year. The present lease of these
lands-Waiohuli and Keokea in
Kula, Maui-does not expire before
! November, 1891, but nevertheless has
the new lease already been granted
on terms as above stated. The worst
feature in the case is, though, that
there were many bids for the
same lands submitted to the Crown
commissioners Offering larger rents
than the one accepted from Mr..
Cornwell A gentleman equally re-
| sponsible to Mr. Cornwell offered
$4,000 a year, but his offer was
| ignored. This means that either
His Majesty or His Majesty's credi-
tors who since the act to relieve the
King are the taxpayers have been
| cheated out of $1,000 year for
twenty years or $4,000 Two of the
l Crown commissioners are Cabinet

Ministers, and they will find, that
the voters of this country have no
confidence in men, who have shown
themselves as unfaithful servants to
their King and the people.
If rumor has it correctly an inves
tigation of the granting of the Wai-
manalo lease will give as bad a
showing as the above stated affair.
MIR. Cornwell has been well paid for
his cleverness as legislator. In
1888 the country was justly indig-
nant, when certain members of the
Legislature were caught accepting
bribes for defeating the anti Chinese
bills, in 1890 we seem to look at
such matters in a different way, or
perhaps it is only new proof of the
correctness of the old proverb talk
ing about big and small rogues.

DURING the recent financial panic
in London, the Bank of France
loaned to the Bank of England
s15,000,000. But this was not the
first time that coin was shipped
across the Channel to tide over a
commercial emergency. In 1889,
when England had large obliga
tions to meet on the Continent for
purchases of wheat, owing to a
short harvest, the Bank of England
secured a credit of S10,000,000
from the French bankers but
when the Bank of France in 1916
desired coin to stave off financial
crisis, the Russian Government
came to the banks rescue. In spite
of the collapse of De Lessep's canal
scheme and the copper corner, the
French find themselves in a very
prosperous condition, and able
readily to respond to England's
appeal for relief.

Plantation Labor.

Mr.. EDITOR: Has anything ever
been done in these islands to see
whether an arrangement could be
made with the Dutch government to
get labor here for the sugar plant
atoms from the island of Java.
Three or four years ago, in the
western part of Queensland, Aus
tralla, such an arrangement was
was made with the Dutch and Il
great many men were imported and
the results at that time were found
to be very satisfactory.
The character of the Javanese
workman is excellent, being a hard
worker, steady and most docile.
One of the secrets of success in
Australia was the adoption of a sys-
tenn of supervision by Javanese
sarongs.
The Javanese may also be en-
ployed on the plantations to run en-
gines, manage the boilers and most
of the machinery of the sugar mills.
In Australia the men are imported
under strict engagements with the
Dutch government for period OF
three years. A planter in Queens
land wishing labor would have to
advance to each man engaged the
sum of from $40 to SIS before leav-
ing Java. His fare also would have
to be paid and his wages during the
three years would be at the rate OF
$3.50 per month and found. AS the
Javanese were found to be far more
preferable to the South Sea Island
ers or the Chinese, why would it not
be wise to try them in these islands
