An error in transcribing stenographie
notes made 1899 read 1900 in the article
in Saturdays paper on the conflfma-
ton of the land sales in Hawaii The
text of the article gave a plain lntlma-
ton of the error but it is nevertheless
our duty to correct it. 1t will be noted
in the correspondence that the story
of the anti-Dole press that the United
States District Attorney here would
receive orders to bring suit to annul
certain land sales was based, not upon
any advices to such effect from WASH
ington, but upon a report filed by the
District Attorney himself against
the legality of such sales. Inasmuch as
the lawyer in the United States Attor-
neys office who makes up the mind OF
the Department in land cases has over
ruled the District Attorney here we
may reasonably assume that no such
suits will be brought.
