MRS. STANFORD'S GIFTS.
Three Deeds Made to Leland Stanford
Junior University.

Mrs. Jane L. Stanford yesterday executed
and delivered to the board of trustees of
the Leland Stanford Junior University two
deeds of grant and one deed of gift: One
of the deeds of grant covers all of the real
estate heretofore given to the university,
including the university campus of about
5000 acres The other deed of grant COW
ers the Stanford residence upon California
street, which eventually is to be used for
educational purposes. The deed of gift
covers bonds and stocks heretofore given
and certain securities not included in former
gifts.
The grants are largely conirmatory In
character, and are made under the proyi-
sions of the Stanford University constitu-
tional amendment, which legaliZed grants
and gifts made to the university. This
amendment was adopted in order to set at
rest any question as to the validity of the
original endowment. and to prevent legal
technicalities from interfering with the fu-
ture donations to this great educational
institution which was founded by Mr.. and
Mrs. Stanford as a memorial to their only
son.
Mrs. Stanford has now given the equiv
alent of over $25 0o0, 900 to the Leland STAN

that the machinery of the battle ship Il

THE FIGHT AGAINST GOV. DOLE.
Vicious and Persistent Are the Efforts
to Secure His Removal.

Vicious and Persistent Are the Efforts
to Secure His Removal.
From the Chicago Record Herald.
Such persistent and vicious efforts are
being made to secure the removal of San
ford B. Dole from the governorship of
Hawaii, and there Is so much misrepresen-
tation of the mans acts and character, that
people who have no personal knowledge of
the condition of affairs In the island terri
tory may be wholly deceived by this cam
paign of intrigue and slander.
The truth is that before the advent of
the carpet-bagger in Honolulu Mr. Doie's
reputation for integrity and ability was
never questioned there, but to say this is
not to do him justice. He had a rare COM
bination Of excellent qualities, which in
spired the confidence and respect of the en-
tire community in which he lived to an ex-
ceptional degree. 1t was for this reason
that he was put at the head of the pro-
visional government of Hawaii after the
revolution. No position was ever secured
with less of self-seeking. Mr.. Dole was
reluctant to leave his seat in the supreme
court, but 1t was felt that no other man
could command quite the same measure of
trust and loyalty, and he accepted the
duties of the very trying office because
there was such an urgent public desire
that he should do so.
The authority for these assertions is not
the ex-parte statement Of some eulogist
but the oft-repeated testimony Of American
haWdlldnS, VINO were numerous enough to
represent public sentiment thoroughly, and
who represented it the more thoroughly be-
cause they came from different parts Of the
island. They belonged it Is true to the
class to which Mr.. Dole belonged, the class
which brought about not only the revolu-
ton but annexation, but that certainly
does not discredit their judgment that he
was pre-eminent among themselves.
1t Is, of course, utterly impossible that
his character should have undergone radi-
cal change since that time, and the accusa-
tions that are made against his adrninistra-
ton are the work either of irresponsible
sersationalists or intriguing politicians No
doubt he is not proof against error, but
he is so much superior to the men who are
attacking him and the executive depart
ment Of Hawaii is so much superior to the
legislative that the less his enemies invite
comparisons the better 1t will be for them
grave charge which has been made
lately Is that he Is not an American. This
seems to imply that no one is an American
who is not recent immigrant, and that
all our newly acquired territory should be
administered eleemosynary institu-
ton for the benefit of claimants who find
that there are not offices enough to go
around in this country. But Mr. Dole is a
much finer type Of the American than these
gentry. And though he was taken in by
annexation and did not go out to annex
everything in sight, he was the son of
American parents. was educated at VIII
liams College, studied law and was admit
ted to the bar in Boston. Upon the whole.
his Americanism is a very good risk
