THAT NEW H|LO RAILWAY
ATTORNEY SMITH SAYS NOT
OPPOSING LINE.
Was Organized Before Former Enter
prise was Thought of-Lawyers See
the Cabinet About II.

The Cabinet this morning had under
consideration the matter of charter
for the proposed Hilo and Honolulu
Railroad Company Owing to the pc
cularity of this project coming up so
soon after a franchise had been grant
ed to the Hlo Railway Company to
operate over the identical ground,
President Dole desired a careful in
vcstigation into all the details of the
matter. The Cabinet agreed that haste
should be made slowly.
Early in the forenoon notice WAS
given to l.. A. Thurston and f. NJ.
Hatch. representing the Hilo Railway
Company, that the matter of the new
application would be up for consider
alton and that their views upon the
matter would be acceptable 20 the
Cabinet. At the same time notice was
given to w. O. Smith, representing the
new enterprise. that the Executive
would like to hear from him in con-
junction Herewith.
The matter came up in the council
chamber at 10 o'clock. 1t was nearly
noon before the talk was over. In
that time Mr.. Thurston laid before the
Cabinet argument that the franchise
| should not be granted, for the reason
that the Hilo Company had accepted
a franchise in good faith. was going
ahead with it's work and that the other
/ line proposed to operate on the iden-
! teal plans.
Mr.. Smith pointed out that the new
enterprise was an old concern. II was
! conceived long before the Hilo Rail-
way project was thought of, and that
| its process of formation covered a pc
riod of nearly year
No conclusion was reached by the
Cabinet. At noon the matter was de
| ferred to Monday, the Cabinet express
! ing a desire to have ample time to
consider all the details presented.
| Upon leaving the Executive build
ing Mr. Smith was accosted and ask
ed: at is suggested around town nat
your company is organized purely to
buck the one chartered by Mr.. Dill
lingham and Mr.. Thurston a few
weeks ago; is that understanding cor
rect?'
IL have heard that suggestion be-
fore" answered Mr.. Smith, with an
air of some annoyance. Really moth
ing could be farther from the truth.
The company now asking for a char
ter was started last fall. long before
the Iiilo Railway Company had applied
for charter or had even been organic
ed.
when Mr.. Gehr was here with the
Hawaiian commission last year he
looked over the ground purposed to
be occupied by our tracks and decid-
ed then to organize the company in
the East. He went back to the main
land and enlisted Mr.. Brown with him
in the enterprise. All the details of
the project were made out over there,
and it was great surprise to the gen.
tlemen a few weeks ago to have the
Hilo scheme projected over the same
ground.
'We are opposing nothing. Our com
pany was the first established, il mere
ly happening that we failed to receive
the first charter"

GOVERNMENT G SCHOOLS FREE TO
THE PEOPLE.
Board of Education Takes Action.
Minister Mott-Smiths Good Hatch
ct Does the Important Work.

Select schools and the fee system was
the subject before the Commissioners
of Education at their meeting yester-
day afternoon. Present at the discus
sion were Minister Mott-Smith, Profess
sor w. d. Alexander DR.. Walter Max
well, ]. Q. Wood, Mrs. Jordan, Inspec-
tor General Townsend and Secretary
Rodgers. Miss Kate Kelly was steno-
grapher.
The report of the committee on select
schools was read. 1t was presented by
Minister Mott-Smith, on behalf of him
self Professor Alexander and Mr..
Wood. A full history of the fee as well
as free school systems was submitted.
The report recommended strongly, as
the opinion of the committee, that the
fee idea was a mistake and should be
abolished.
There was considerable discussion on
the report. A slight opposition that ap-
peared in one quarter was satisfied.
following which, there was a unanimity
of opinion that the recommendations
should be adopted. Mrs. Jordan moved
the adoption of the report and DR..
Maxwell seconded the motion. 1t pass
ed unanimously. To put the action in
to effect the following resolution was
offered and was passed:
Resolved, That the fees for attend
ance in all public schools in the Hawai-
ian Islands be and the same are hereby
abolished, this action to take effect at
the beginning of the next school year.
1t was the opinion of members and
also of the minister, that there should
not be a sudden change. AS the year
is so near at a close it would be decid-
edly better to have the change come
with the new term, which begins early
in September.

ANOTHER ADDITION.

The Union barber shop has again
been fortunate in securing the services
of Joe Galiano, one of the best BARRIERS
in Honolulu. Mr.. Galiano needs no in
PRODUCTION to the gentlemen of this city
as he has done satisfactory work for
many. He was lately with the Silent
shop, but salary inducement brings him
to the Union, who have added another
chair. This addition to the present force
makes the Union barber shops force
very complete. Frank Pacheco knows
that the most necessary element of a
first-class barber shop is skilled work
men and he has them, salary being a
secondary consideration.
With the increase in chairs and
workmen, long waits at the Union are
avoided, and satisfactory work is theil

that it is obtainable in practically all

CROSS BILL PUT IN.
Lahaina Coffee Company Comes Into
an Ejectment Suit.

A few days ago the Pioneer Mill
Company entered suit against Hama
and her husband, Uni Kukailani. of
Lahairfs, to recover a large tract of
land occupied by the Lahaina Coffee
Company. Today there was filed a bill
crossing the original complaint. 1t is
on nearly fifty pages of typewriter pa
per. In it the original defendants as
well as the Lahaina Coffee Company
by w. L. Decota, are made parties
plaintiff.
BY reason of certain old transfers it
is set up that the original complaint is
at fault. An injunction to restrain the
Pioneer Mill Company from pressing
it's suit against the two natives is
prayed for and granted by Judge Per-
ry. An indemnity bond is signed by
the Lahaina Coffee Company and James
w. Girvin. The amount is $500.

MORE OF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines used in the United States
than of Any other one make. This is a
very excellent guarantee that they are
one of the very best machines. The
points of merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
tion. Very little mechanism to get out
of order makes repair bills small

chine examine the Singer before pur-
chasing any other make. b. Berger

BROTHER MATTHIAS.
Receives Praise for His Work in De-
stroying Beetles.

Professor Koebele gives great praise
to Brother Matthias of Iilo for his
efforts in helping to destroy the Jap
anese beetle. In his report the Pro-
fessor says:
1--WE wish here to express our ever
lasting gratitude to Brother Matthias
of Hilo, who labored so faithfully and
gratuitously during the whole season,
distributing over two thousand of the
infected beetles with two different
species of fungoids."
Brother Matthias is thorough ma
turalist and next to Professor Koebele
is probably the best authority upon
the Islands. He is so modest withal
that few know of his attainments.

Expenses OF a College Course.

In a canvass recently made by New
York newspaper some interesting facts
were brought out as to the annual cost
of a college education. Apparently the
larger the university the higher the
cost of a college education seems to be.
as general thing, while it is well
established that the small college has
many advantages, educational and
otherwise, which the large university
cannot offer. For example, at such
colleges as BoWdoin, Hamilton, Leland
Stanford, Jr., Mt. Holyoke, Syracuse
University, Union College, and Wesley
an the annual yearly expenses of stu
dents who enter heartily into the COL
lege life may be safely estimated at be-
tween $500 and $40O. At colleges slight
ly larger, such as Amherst, Brown,
Dartmouth, Michigan University.
Smith. Vassar. Wellesley, between $500
and $500 seems 10 be the average for all
necessary expenses exclusive of cloth
ing.
OF the larger colleges or universities
at Columbia the annual expenses are
from about $500 to over $500. At Cor
nell, where there are 512 state scholar
ships. the cost averages about $500. At
Harvard the figures range from $35S TO
more than $1,000. At the University of
Pennsylvania. with 315 scholarships
and fellowships, the average was re-
duced to $3.50. At Yale the expenses
range from $3.50 to $500 with possibly
an average of 5000 Out Of nearly 1909
students graduated at Yale in the past
few years. Go We're entirely self-sup-
porting and 271 partially self-support-
ing.
A study Of these figures seems to
show that as a rule expenses are low
est at the smallest colleges and highest
at the largest colleges or universities,
although there are seemingly a few
exceptions to this rule. Then in all the
colleges, large and small. there are
many scholarships. and a broad field
for students to do outside work to get
money to defray their expenses. Con
siderinG the scholarships and other
aids. therefore. there is probably no
American college at which it would be
impossible to attain an education on an
assured income Of 5000 for the college
year. These facts ana figures are well
worth considering at this time by the
many now about to graduate from high
school or academy who are wondering
if they can afford a college education.
The real question is, can you afford to
be without it?
