Expected Contest of BENZ. Stanton will
u Falls Through and Will is Proved.
The will of Benjamin Stanton, late
of the town of Randall, deceased, was
admitted to probate in the county court
this morning.
1t was expected that the probate OF
the will would bring about a great
fight on account of the fact that Mrs.
Hall, of Burlington, one of the daught-
ers of Stanton, recently filed a contest
to the will, alleging that it was not
the last will of Mr.. Stanton, and that
it had been revoked previous to the
death of the testator.
The will was made made many years
ago and all who witnessed the instru-
ment are long since dead. On this &C
count no evidence could be produced to
sustain the charges made by Mrs. Hall
and after short legal tilt the will was
admitted to probate.
By the terms of the will the property
will be divided among the children of
the deceased, with the exception of
Mrs. Hall, who will receive her share
of the estate in the form of love and
affection.

was only one inspector, he was seen
often, but now they are seldom around"
Senator Kanuha was then recognized,
and threw out some shot air" on the
subject. He acknowledged there had
been an increase in morality, but that
was no reason why there should be so
many inspectors employed. There be-
ing such an efficient corp of teachers
now the office of inspector was not as
necessary as in former times.
Senator Kalauokalani said he be-
lieyed in assisting the educational de-
partment as much as possible, but did
not believe in useless extravaganza. he
then threw some bouquets at Senators
Baldwin, Achi and Cecil Brown, who
he said had been educated under the
old order of things, when only one in
spector was employed, and their high
intellectual qualities spoke very eio-
Quently against an increase of inspect
ors.
Senator Baldwin said when only one
inspector was employed he only went
over the ground once a year, and as
there is a larger number of schools
now, and new ones springing up almost
daily, the need Of more inspectors was
apparent. Schools without inspectors
were like large sugar plantations with
out a manager. There must be a head.
He favored the four inspectors called
for in the bill, but no more, and did not
believe in reducing their salaries, as
their expenses while out performing
their duties We're quite large.
