The brief of United States District
Attorney j. j. Dunno, i'm the matter of
the appeal for new trial of the Homo
lulu Plantation company case, was filed
yesterday Dunno figures the value of
the land at $2S5O per acre, which would
make verdict of about 900 instead
Of $l05,0O0, as agreed upon by the jury.
He argues, however that even this
value is offset by the following alleged
facts:
Il. The 561 acres never had no an
nual use.
"2. Nrhey never had a yearly value.
"3. They had never been cleared,
plOwed, sowed or cropped.
a. Nearly one-half is useless and
unfit for cultivation.
IS. They never produced any income
whatever.
&C. The whole piece is raw land that
never has been cultivated, that never
raised a crop, and whose capabilities
are purely speculative.
~ Shallow soil, rocky patches
marshy spots.
IS. No water supply beyond one
small brackish artesian WELL
g. Railroad easement,
! 10 No improvements. Neither the
mill nor the pumping plant is on this
/ land. They are both independent, and
I
/ ing. They would have been built any
way, whether the defendant got this
land or not as they were both indis-
pensable to the other 5000 acres of the
plantation.
IL Until recently this land was a
waste, overrun by cattle. 1t was not
subjected to any useful purpose, wheth-
er for transportation, storage. repair
shop, or other purposes or as a living
ground for employees.
70. These SCI acres never had any
! influence, whether for good or bad
upon the remainder of the plantation
They neither produced nor contributed
Anything to the annual use of the plan
tation.
"13. Even on the assumption that
| these acres are as good as the rest, the
Dowsett lease transaction shows that
$3.50 per acres is fair valuation upon
defendants own conduct and judgment
in the purchase of that lease"
Dunno also declares that the jury
went outside of the evidence in placing
a valution of $15,2OS on the improve
ments on the land.

POWELL AND
AALA PARK

EDITOR STAR: l have just noticed
that in your editorial of yesterday on
Aala Park, you say the late Minister
King and Rowell were bitterly opposed
to the plan" of making Aala Park.
You are very much mistaken if you
think l was bitterly opposed to that
plan. l was in no way opposed to the
park plan, but / was very much inter-
ested in completing River street college
walk and the Nuuanu stream improve
ment which we had begun and which
required much filling material There
was no other government land within a
reasonable distance from which filing
material could be obtained but il was
an easy matter to put material from
the harbOr on the Aala lot, so we took
the material from there and if we could
have gone right on with the haTbOr
work the lot would have been filled
within a few weeks. The distance and
location Of the roads where the filling
was required was such that 1t was inn
possible to pump the material from the
dredger directly to the spot, and l think
the necessary delay to the park was
justifiable for the sake of completing
the stream improvements and should
not subject me to the imputation of be-
ing bitterly opposed" to so benefcent
a scheme as park close to the busiest
part of town.
Yours truly,
W.E.ROWELL.

WILLIS ON
SOOTHSAYING

In the January number Of the Do
cesar Magazine, Bishop Willis returns
to his criticism of the Fortune Teller
booth at the Second Congregation g
church fair. He says:
1T has been objected that the Bis
hops denunciation of fortune-t telling
as practiced at the Church fair of the
Second Congregation was far too severe,
that it was quite an innocent game i'm
which a child amused other children by
pretending to tell their future by the
lines on the hand; that all knew it was
humbug, and 50 no one was deceived,
and no practice of witchcraft was invol-
we'd.
THE Diocesan Magazine would ask
all who put forward this plea in de-
fence Of what was done these questions:
First, can it be for the glory of God
to raise money for His Church by let
ting children pretend to do that which
He has plainly forbidden in His Holy
Word (Deut. xviii 10, 1D2 Secondly,
can it be I'm accordance with the Christ
ian duty of abstaining from all appear
ance Of evil, to encourage children in
doings which, If practiced in the street
by some poor heather would be punish
ed by Imprisonment at hard labor.
Only one answer can be given to these
questions. That such practices are very
common at church and charity fairs
only shows that the law is not evenly
administered. Eearly last year three
persons were brought before the Clerk
enwel police court charged with pre-
tending and protesting to tell fortunes
by palmistry. Mr.. Ricketts,, counsel
for the defence asked the following
question: THE offence with which
these persons are charged is that of
palmistry, telling fortunes by means of
the lines on the hands-the same sort
of offence that is committed at nearly
all charity bazaars?' BY that question
it is evident that in the opinion of a
well-known lawyer there is no distinc-
ton between telling as praC-
ticed at a church fair and fOrtune-tell-
ing by a gypsy n vagrant on the
street"

FOOLISH SOUTH AMERICANS.

Our good friends in the republics to
the south of us are displaying but little
wisdom in the Interpretation which they
are placing upon that paragraph in
President Roosevelts recent message
which deals with the Monroe doctrine.
They see in it a menace, according to
the lights before them. They imagine
they hear in It threat of interference
by this country in the event of a con-
hict between any OF the sister republics
which would involve an accession Of
territory by one of the parties to the
conflict and a concession of it by the
other.

candidate by the Committee under any
other circumstances than to have re-
ceived clear majority of the votes in
the primaries was an usurpation of power
not contained In the rules first laid down
and delivering the voter to the candi-
date without their consent and against
their will. A rule of procedure having
been made and agreed upon by all con-
cerned, 1t could not in good faith be de-
parted from and Colonel CARRIER is really
not responsible for the plan for he had
nothing to do with Its making, only ac-
cepted its provisions when he became a
candidate and is only acting his part In
good faith towards it's being carried out.
1t is not just or fair for a candidate who
Is the leader to plead for support upon
that ground. for 1t argues nothing with
four or five candidates being voted for
as the result in the primaries next Mon
day will go to substantiate and prove.
This Is the argument that Colonel Gar
bcrs friends are making for him and
there seems to be no answer to 1t. They
are proud of the fact, they say. that they
have conducted their canvass on a high
plane, have run their man on his merits

smirch the character of their opponent
