The vendors of soda water and cigars
and those who dispense strong waters
in the neighborhood of Waikiki have
of speedy removal of Camp McKin-
ley from it's present site. Several small
Chinese stores practically depend upon
the purchases of canned goods with
which the local artiflerymen are wont
to enlarge their regular rations.
Rumors have been rife among the
soldiery at the camp that the barracks,
quartermast and commissary de-
partments, with the hospital, We're to
be removed to the Government reser-
walton at Kahauki by July LIST. The
rumor was based on the fact that sew
eral of the leases by which Camp Nc
Kinley is held were to run out on that
date. Colonel Maus. Inspector General
of the Department OF California, in
which the Territory of Hawaii Is In
Guided, is here looking into post affairs.
and his presence may have given color
to the talk of removal
The Quartermaster's Department and
Captain Shaker, now in command of
the artillery quartered here, during the
absence of Major Ennis were inter-
viewed upon the subject yesterday af-
ternoon.
Major Robinsons chief clerk stated
that only a few of the several leases
governing Camp Mckinley would lapse
at the end Of next month and that the
rumors of camp removal were simply
rumors, nothing more.
A talk with Captain Shaker threw
more light on the matter.
at is true" said he, that there is
some difficulty about renewing certain
of the leases that expire on June goth,
but the trouble lies in the fact that the
owners ask more rent for the land than
is considered just by the military
authorities. Mr.. Hollinger, for in
stance, asks 800 rent for his strip
Camp Mckinley is held under several
leases from various property owners
who have been getting a good rent for
land that otherwise would be practic-
ally worthless, except for bee farms or
for growing cordwood. These people
want more rent and they will possibly
get it under the present circumstances.
IT couldn't move to the Moanalua
camp by July LIST anyway. 1t Is gov
eminent property but is held on
private lease; there are no buildings
there and If the possessors of the lease
were unwilling to give it up the. land

price for the default of the lease ad-
Indicated.
THE owners of the Iwilei property 1
understand need some portion of it for
private purposes, but nothing definite
is decided upon as regards removal of
the stock.
"Of course we are peculiarly situat-
ed here, having practically no post.
The various departments are scattered
all over town, the hospital is six miles
from the camp, there are. no officers
quarters there, the officer of the day
has an hours travel to and from the
camp and if he is married man, sees
very little of his home life.
In over twenty years experience ]
have never seen a post arranged or
rather disarranged as this one Is. The
reason is easily found though. The
war in the Philippines has put Ha-
wall in the background as far as mil
itary affairs are concerned I believe
that Colonel Maus intends to report
favorably on the. building of a military
post at kahauki This, of course,
means a regularly laid-out post with
barracks, officers row and all the de-
partments grouped in one settlement.

not anxious to reenlist, as they do not

probably be changed if they were thor

Time will see a regular post estab-

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1901-02-27
IN The OLD DISTRICT
That is Where Rock Island Seems
Destined to Land Con-
Occasionally.
ANOTHER CHANGE IN THE MAP
Switch From Prince to Marsh
District Practically
Settled.
ANOTHER CHANGE IN THE MAP

The work that has been going on at
Springfield since the last .authentic''
superintendent, congressionally speak
ing, was announced, in the effort to
separate Rock Island county from the
Prince district and place it in the pro-
posed Marsh or Rankin districts
the case may be-has been apparently
attended with success. Now comes
the information that the congressional
plan, as arranged last week, has been
adopted by the caucus, with slight
changes which had been foreseen.
Congressman Marsh is put into dis
trict composed of Hancock, Melon
ough, Warren, Henderson, Mercer and
Rock Island counties. also the district
of Speaker Sherman and of James Nc
Kinney, of the state executive COM
mittee. 1t is said, nevertheless, that
Marsh will haye trouble getting NOM
mated in this district. The Prince
district thus becomes Adams, Schuy-
Ter, Fulton, Knox and Henry counties.
