SAMOA MATTERS SETTLED
UNCLE SAM GETS ONE ISLAND
The Details Arranged-Partition OF
Samon-Germnny Steps Quitting
land Gets the Most-It VIII Settle
Long Standing Difficulty.

London, Nov. S.-Although the exact
terms of the agreement are still carefully
guarded, the Associated Press is able to
say that the Samoan question is practl
cally settled, and that the fnalities will
take place within few days unless some
most unexpected hitch occurs.
1t can be said that American control Of
Tutila island is confirmed and agreed to,
while the United States has, it is under
stood, signifed its approval of the project
ed arrangements between Germany and
Great Britain. Regarding the details Of
the latter the British foreign office remain:
mute except to authorize the statement
that none of the recent surmises of the
German press have correctly outlined the
1t is also emphatically denied that the
United States has been in any way neg
lected in the negotiations.
It is pointed out that the United States
having secured one island, obtained al
she expected or desired, but though thor
oughly satisfied, she was kept conversan
with the situation as negotiations proceed
ed between Great Britain and Germany.
OF course it is still within the limits o
possibility that another and entirely un
expected contingency may arise during tn
interim of the drawing up of the paper
and signing of them, but there is ever.
reason to believe that an official statemen
will be given out this week announcing
the terms of settlement of this long stand
ing international difficulty.

London, Nov. An immense weight
was lifted from the public mind by brief
official dispatch, by which the continental
stories of disaster at Ladysmith were
proved to be false. But the dispatch 1t
self revived the anxiety of the more timid
in another quarter, as it indicated that
Gen. White, instead of sitting quietly and
acting wholly on the defensive, as it is
held in many quarters he ought to do, per-
ssts in making sorties and risking IN
other Nicholsen's Mex disaster.
Generally, however, the CHEEKY tone Of
the dispatch, showing there is no anxiety
at Ladysmith as regards the ability OF th'
beleaguered garrison to hold its own, has
had an excellent effect on the country
From the fact that White is able to take
the offensive and shell the Boer camp i
seems Ladysmith is not so slosely besiege'
as was supposed
Not much importance. however, is at
tached to the Smelling of the Boer laage
as the war office has no confirmation o
the story that the Orange Free Skaters
camp at Besters has been captured. Wer
this true, it might have considerable e.
feet on the future attitude of the Onn9
Free State, which is not so directly col
cerned in the conflict as the Transvaal.

What between the meeting of teach
ers at Los Angeles, and the summer
school in Honolulu, some of the teach
ing profession will have their time pref
ty fairly filled up during this vacation.
However, Hawaiian teachers cannot
complain of their vacations, they have
from nine to ten weeks in the sum-
mer, and two short vacations during
the year as well. AS they are on full
pay during that time they are rather
better off for leisure than any other
profession. The rewards, however, are
not great, and the minor positions in
the profession are miserably paid
Some day living salary should be paid
of not less than $50 per month There
are teachers, we'll equipped mentally
who only get $50 a month. This does
not suffice to properly support them.
The subject might well occupy the at
tention of a committee when we have
Legislature again.

WAIMEA HOMEsTEADs.

The matter of the Waimea home
steads which Eben Low brought for
ward in his interview in The Star on
Saturday is one that will bear investi-
cation. The conditions upon which the
leases have been granted are perfectly
clear. The lands are to be obtained OH
easy terms, but the idea was to have
bona fide homesteaders who would live
on the plots and improve them. If any
persons have obtained the lands with
out carrying out the clause of contin-
uous residence, the land has been i'm
properly obtained. 1t was intended
that these lands should become home
lots not that they should be added to the
possessions of those who already pos
sessed lands.
In the same way if the other provis-
ions about cultivating and planting
trees have not been carried out, the
leases should be forfeited. What the
land law contemplated was to build up
a population of homesteaders, who
would live on their own little proper
ties. If those who have obtained the
grants have not carried out the provis-
ions Of their leases opportunity should
be given to other people who will.
The climate of Waimea is a bracing
one, and there is no reason why a con-
siderable population should not make
a living off it's soil, and have a number
of pleasant homes. The general COM
plant is that we have not sufficient
land for homestead purposes. Those in
charge of the administration Of the
land laws, should see to it that their
provisions are properly carried out. OF
course there may be something un-
reasonable in Mr.. Lows complaint, but
his story seems a. straightforward one,
and he is thoroughly in earnest in the
statement of his opinions.

The Bishop estate trust is becoming
more and more valuable as time goes
on, and with the increasing prosperity
of the place will increase in it's power
for good. When a trust of this kind is
founded, the founder can form little
idea of the ultimate result of the foun-
dalton. Trusts, like everything else
human, flourish and fade. They exist
for hundreds of years at times, and
then their period of usefulness ceases
and legislation has to come in and
legislate them away The Bishop es-
tate trust is now only in its childhood,
as it We're, and has a long career of
usefulness before it, 1t will, in the
course of a couple of hundred years or
so, be carrying out work probably
never contemplated by it's founder, or
the present trustees, but it will do good
work, whatever it may be. Times
change so that it is impossible to pre-
dictate for the future, conditions be-
come so entirely different, that the
most useful provision becomes at fault.
But to those of the present, the future
need not give much anxiety. Trustees,
and teachers, and pupils and tenants
and generations of their descendants,
will be all mingled in one common for
gotten dust, before the changes which
must come, take place. What we have
to think about, is that Honolulu has a
handsome bequest, ably administered,
and to honor the memory of the noble
lady who devoted her fortune to the
good of her people,

Ierrlhc smuggling and perfect held
work won yesterdays baseball game
for Rock Island from Belden Hills
head liners
The visitors weren't in it at any
stage of the proceedings. Their team
work was decidedly ragged. Jack Hart
proved a puzzler. Although he was
occasionally wild, it was never to the
advantage of the rabbits. On the
other hand. the home players seemed
to find Lathrop at will.
1t was an ideal ball day. A good
sized weekday crowd was present,
and enthusiasm ran high. Neither
team touched the rubber until the
third inning, when Charles Doom
punched the lemon over the left field
fence for four cushions. Bobby Roth
ermel got Jar in the main works
and was rewarded with base. He
stole second. Brott flew out to right.
Joe Wright cracked out n 3-bagger
and Rothermel came home. O'Rourke
and Botenus walked and Ball singled,
scoring Wright and O'Rourke.
In the fourth Cedar Rapids made
her first run on hits by Strane and
Hill.
In the fifth Brott reached first on a
single and scored on Wright's 2-baser
to center. Joe reached third on a sac
rilice by O'Rourke, who died at home.
Botenus singled and stole second,
Brott retiring the side on fly to Gen.
ter.
The real cannonading began in the
sixth. Bay singled and was advanced
to second by DOOM hit. Hart singled
and Bay was corralled at the home
plate. Hart and Doom Tailed on
Rothermel's 3-base hit. Brott died.
WrightShit to the infield and Rother-
mel scored on Hills attempt to catch
Wright at first. Joe scored on pass
ball. O'Rourke hit to second and
reached first.
In the eighth Rock Island rolled up
two on hits by Brott, Wright,
O'Rourke and Botenus. The visitors
scored one in this inning, Schaffer
getting a base on balls, and Donnelly
and Strang singing.
In the ninth the smuggling was con-
tinued by Sage's players, Doom,
O'Rourke, Rothermel, Brott and
Wright crossing the plate. The
