THE TERRITORIAL BILL.

The passage OF the territorial bill
in the Conferences Committee virtu-
ally settles the conditions of the
Territory of Hawaii, because there
are no reasons or prospects that any
changes would be made, when the
bill was submitted to Congress, as
there is no material difference be-
tween the provisions of the Senate
bill and the one passed by the
House. The obnoxious clause re-
ferring to the deportation OF Asiatic
contract laborers was stricken out.
The clause was fake under all cir
cumstances. The prohibition sec-
tion relating to saloons was "modi-
fed" in a manner which would
make it impossible for it's own father
to recognize it. The modification
leaves the liquor question to be
dealt with according to public op.
ton, and as even DR.. S. e. Bishop
has publicly declared himself in
favor of licensed saloons, it is not
difficult to predict what public op-
tion will mean. The section referr-
ing to possession of public lands
was retained and in the future no
corporation can hold more than 1000
acres OF public lands. The section
is not retrospective, however, and it
is built in such q clumsy manner by
the men who don't know the first
bssomish mihfRt and n,dh4ti 4stitpyy it yyl
cause for laughter. There are Coy
ernment lands which may be leased,
if, cay 10000 acres could be had un-
der one lease for ranching purposes.
The conditions OF such lands are Of
q nature which would prevent any
man from making a Lying even if he
took up 1000 acres and started
"small farming" in desert where
he would fud no neighbors, no
market and very little water. Large
stretches of land with a peculiar
grass growing on it, INDECENT to the
islands, are used in our islands as
"fattening" pastures, and they are
excellent for such purposes, as long
as the acreage is broad. But divid.
ing such lands into "small farms"
will simply be absurd and serious
loss to the revenue of the Govern
ment. But of course all laws can
be neatly evaded by those who un-
derstand the business. Let the
Territory have trial aud the "self-
styled""best people" be taught
lesson.
