Commissioner Hermann Does Not

Territorial omeials.
IFron . Sac correspondent-l

From q Sta1 Correspondent
WASHINGTON. Feb ls--The-e
~as introduced IN the Senate a while
ago a bill providing that the public
land laws Of the United States be ex-
tended TO the Territory OF Hawaii
The bin was referred TO the Senate
Committee or public lands and then
that committee wrote q letter 10 the
Commissioners Of the General Land
omee, the Hon Binger Hermann.
and asked him 10 make some
recommendations on the wisdom
of it Nr. Hermann has
sent to the Senate COMMITTEES his re
ply, and he disagrees with the whole
proposition The Commissioner TN
views at great length the land laws
now applicable to Hawaii. and then
comes down TO making recommends
tons, wherein he uses the following
language:
This Office does not feel justified
at this time in recommending the pas
sage of the proposed bill. and in the
absence of further and more definite
information as to the exact conditions
existing in Hawaii il is not deemed
wise at this time TO recommend any
amendments or substitutes in lieu
thereof II is my opinion. however.
that when such information is obtain
ed ii will be found wise ana expedient
TO subject all lands in Hawa.- to en-
try under the public land laws now
in force in the United States. with
such restrictions and notifications
thereof as the local exigencies may
demand And it is further believed
that these laws should be- administer
ed and enforced as to Hawaiian lands
through a register and receiver and
this Office, and not through territorial
officers who are not in touch with. and
from lack of information on, the sub
ject are likely to be put out of har-
mony with the general spirit which
controls the government in the dis
tribution of its pubic domain among
its citizens.
That letter will without doubt pre-
vent land legislation for Hawaii until
there can be an investigation into the
matter and some definite information
had as TO the sort of legislation that
is best fitted for the public lands in
that territory. That certainly cannot
De done before the next regular ses-
sion of Congress, which meets next
December. II seems reasonably prob
able that the government will then
ask Congress to pass laws for Ha-
wall very like those in the United
States. These laws will restrict the
distribution of the public lands to all
except those who intend making their
homes upon them. They will be laws
distinctly in favor of the poor man
seeking a home, and they VIII prevent
speculation in the lands of the public
domain. +. ). l..
