ARID LANDS AND CATTLEMEN.

Governor Poynter of Nebraska has
challenged the National Live Stock as
ISOLATION and announces that he will
fight the plan, agreed upon at its meet
lng at Fort Worth. to lease all arid
and semi-arid land, belonging to the
government, to the highest bidders.
.oyernor Poynter claims that this
llu is farming, as the h0mesteaders
ID settlers fear that the large cattle
companies will get control of all the
available grazing lands. Governor
Poynter believes that this land should
e coded by the government to the var,
as states, each state to have the right
. dispose Of it as its legislature may
erect. He believes that the state leg
islatures are in a position to deal much
more intelligently with the subject than
The general government.
Governor Poynter is the first to take
up the matter for the reason hat there
are thousands of acres Of government
lands in western Nebraska that are still

use it without payment, and the set
tiers have in many instances taken
homesteads along the streams and val
leys and desire the use of adjacent sand
hills and grazing land for their small
herds. On some of the government
land that is thus occupied by home
steaders and cattlemen alike. trouble
has arisen, and if present conditions
are allowed to continue, bloodshed will
result.
For the sake Of avoiding trouble, If
not for other reasons, the question of
the right to use government arid lands
should be settled as soon as possible.
The Fort Worth convention brought
up one side of the matter, and now Gov
ernor Poynter has brought up the 9TH

OUR BRINY REPRESENTATIVES,

The monitor "Wymoing" is to be n
of the finest warships of its class. 1t
will be a fitting representative of a
progressive state. Our people should be
proud of the fact that the United States
has recognized us so handsomely.
Therefore The Republican urges upon
the ladies of Laramie the wisdom of at
once responding to the call of Cover
nor Richards to provide a silver set for
the vessel. So far as The Republican
has been able to learn no other city
has taken any steps in the matter, but
1t is entirely proper that Laramie
should be in the lead. Our women are
capable. generous and patriotic. They
delight in doing those things which re-
dound to the credit of the state or ma
ton. With willing hands they have
met every call made by the state for
the benefit of our worthy volunteers.
From needlepurse to Christmas boxes
they were prodigal in their liberality.
Their reward was ample. Our soldier
boys thanked them from their heart
of hearts, and they had the satisfaction
Of knowing their duty was well per-
formed.
The duty or raising funds for the
purchase of a silver set for a magnifi-
cent battleship named in honor of our
state should not be a disagreeable task.
Let some leader among the ladies, or
association or club, take hold of the
matter, and We will warrant the re-
spouse will be hearty and sincere.
Let Laramie set tho mare

Quietly Investigated.

When the transport Lennox Was In
Hilo there was on board a man by the
name of J. II. SULLIVAN who, from ali
accounts, had greater confidence re-
posed in him by The United States Gov
eminent than the average wagon mas
ter.
When he left on the Lennox he wa
under instructions TO investigate Hilo
with view to ascertaining the posi-
bility for terrifying the place and is
adaptability Is a Quartermasters' sup
ply depot. Gle visited various points
and from a point on the Kaumana
road made sketches which he submit
ted with his report to Washington. A
gentleman now in Hilo says this report
was eminently favorable and that Mr..
Sullivan will return to Hilo in about
three months.
It was he VINO stopped the landing
of the Lennox mules in Hilo. He gave
as reason for his action that The mules
were suffering from colds and that
they were accustomed TO the temp ra
turc OF the steamer and he feared tina.
to land them during the ran then pre-
vailing would mean acute influenza
which would result fatally.
Must Have More Room.
The long wharf, the boat landing,
the Kinau wharf in the Waiaea river,
are jammed with boxes OF merchan-
disc TO an extent that prevents the
prompt removal OF goods. This Condi-
don of affairs Is the result of the new
enterprises started in Hilo and the
shipment OF goods direct to HilO for
Island distribution instead Of via Ho-
nolulu. \ local merchant said yester-
day:
I'VE need more room on the wharves
and need 1t badly. Steamers arrive
here from Honolulu and cargoes are
landed on the wharves only TO be
mixed up with goods discharged
from Coast sailing vessels. So much
merchandise is coming here and so
much is being shipped out that there
Is not room enough on the wharves to
accommodate Us.
An effort is being made 20 have Hi
10 a distributing point for the wind
ward side OF Hawaii, but to be success
ful We should be able to ship our goods
promptly. As IL IS the time table OF
as the haul is long one. we find the
only way 10 accomplish results is to
get our goods TO the wharf at least
twenty-four hours ahead OF when the
steamer is supposed to leave for local
ports. But in the meantime another
steamer may come in from Honolulu
and wharf room is needed for her, SO
that there is always danger OF having
the out and in freight mixed up. The
difficulty would be overcome In a
measure by completing what Is known
as the harbor landing. a retaining
wall has already been built and 1t re-
quires only filling in and blasting the
rocks in front so as TO give deeper wa
ter. / do not believe this would cost a
great deal OF money and IL would be
great Improvement over the present.

tains the information that when the
budget left the Interior Office IL con-
tanned items for Hilo aggregating
$50. 500 When brought up for dis
cussion by the Executive. Minister Da-
moa said the resources were not sufii-
cient for the various sums appropriate

$4,000 and similar reduction made
with regard 10 Honolulu. AS the pub
lished appropriations for Honolulu
amounted to more than a million dol
lars and for Hilo less than $4,000. II
would be interesting TO know what Ho-
