estimate for expenses to run the depart

Resolved, That in accordance with Sec
tion 16. Chapter 1S4, of the laws of 1891,
this Board hereby certifes to the Board
of Finance an estimate in total of the
amounts necessary for the purpose of

be abandoned. and preparations are al
ready being made to dismantle it, be-
cause the lease now held is about to ex-
| pire. The manager of Olowalu plantation
on Maui told me that they intended TO
make no further improvements of a per-
manent nature, until certain that the
p esent land system viii not be disturb
ed. They have p s-N years lease on their
government land, out they viii not put
In large amount OF money unless they
are certain that they ca<l remain in pos
session of their property. II is not IN
likely that this plantation also will be
abandoned.
There are numerous other defects that
could he pointed out in the law. I be-
Neve il VIII work serious damage 10
those plantations which are unable to
buy UP che homestead leases, once the
title is passed Some of them VIII of
course be able to do this, and it viii
only cause a temporary Inconvenience.
Delegate wilcox proposes that these
lands, some OF them worth $500 an acre.
be thrown open to the public at six dol
lars an acre. Is 1t unreasonable to sup
pose that large army of spectators
viii be attracted when they see how
easy II viii be to make a few thousand
dollars without any investment. If II
was the small farmer who would work
in harmony with the planter already
here, and whose coming would not be
damaging TO the Chlet industry or the ISL
ands, then this new law would be all
right. But past experience has proven
that it IS not the expert Yankee farmer
of the East, who knows he cannot mar
ket his crops here, who will come but
the class Of men who see a golden OPP
portunity which they seek, only to get
rich at some one else's expense. The
small farmer who will stay is always
welcome and always has been, but Ha-
waii does not want the man who expects
70 get rich off the country in a hurry and
then return.
Before any land legislation is adopt
ed by Congress a commission should be
sent TO Hawaii TO investigate conditions
here as they really exist, and see them
selves how impossible it is to adapt the
general land laws of the United States
for this Territory. I am convinced that
If a Congressional party visited Hawaii
no such bin as that presented would
pass, but unless some action is taken to
Washington to prove its utter impractic-
ability, the law Is likely TO be detrimental
to the best interests of the Territory"

\ number of spectators yesterday
afternoon witnessed the suicide OF
Prince" young dog owned by
Frank Monroe, of 30S Washington ave-
nue.. What prompted the animal to
its desperate deed is not known; and
the motive is likely to remain OBJ
scured in doubt forever. The canine

story brick structure at Washington
avenue and Linden street. and striking
on the pavement directly in front of
Reisman's news stand. was instantly
killed.
Fracture of the skull and vertebraa
at the base of neck are pronounced
TO have caused death.
1t was o'clock when the suicide
occurred. The dog, a small specimen
of the genus "yaller dog was frisk
ing playfully about the roof. on which
its young master allowed it to take
a short airing. Suddenly. az a brisk
bark from the street attracted its at
