LAND VALUES IN 80
ABOUT ONE sixth OF PRESENT
VALUE.

The Account of the Sale of State
School Lands from the Issue OF
The Tribune of rlay 10th, 1880
One Piece as High as $2o.75 Per
Acre.
The following is an account of the
sale Of state lands in this county,
taken from the issue of this paper OF
May Goth, 1880. 1t will be noticed
that most of the pieces brought from
S. to SIS, but that the editor makes
much of the fact that one piece
brought $2975 per acre. We are in
formed by persons who remember the
sale that the price of this piece was
run up for personal reasons. Follow
ing is the article:-
The prices realized at tho sale of
State School and Internal Improve
ment lands in this county last Satur-
day, are both gratifying and en-
couragiug, sure indication of the
progress of the County, it's future
development as an agricultural
region, and positive assurance of
our permanent growth and advance
ment as rich and prosperous COM
munity. We do not think we are too
sanguine, for there is not county in
our unequaled state, that can, for so
short a period, show more sub
stantiaI growth than can Stevens
County. The rapid development and
astonishing progress we have made
during five years, is unprecedented,
rarely equaled and never excelled by
any county in any farming state in
the Union. Previous to 1875 there was
any amount of the very finest lands
10 be had for the asking, but that it
is all changed now is evident, when
unimproved land, five miles from the
railroad is worth, in cash, $29.75 per
acre, one section az raging $l2,OO0O0.
Figures like these talk so that all can
hear, and hearing believe, there is no
bunkum or fustion about our lands
or their value, facts and figures
speak for themselves, and and ar
more convincing to the practical
business man and capitalist, than all
the rhetorical eloquence of the world,
even when supported by logical
argument, facts are wanted in these
days, and we are proud of our show
and our figures.
Mr.. Whitcomb the State Auditor,
in conversation, said in answer to a
question, that the prizes were very
satisfactory, and that some of the
tracts brought the the highest prices,
of any lands he had EVER SOLD for
farming purposes"
The following is a list of lands |
sold, the names of purchasers and
the price paid ner acre: |

Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young :;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
IS good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Degln with the IlTSt lnOugnC
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

MILES LITTLE VISIT.
Manila Americana

Manila Americana
General Miles paid a visit to the
Philippines. He remained little over
a month. 1t was the first time he had
an opportunity OF getting any infor-
nation about the islands for his "in-
.erview fund" From recent dispatches
he seems to have seen many things
which needed fixing. That is what we
expected.
In 1898, Miles was wanted so badly
in Washington that we had to take
Manila without him; in 1899. he failed
to make the islands In time to pre-
vent the instruction and all through
the years 1900 and 1901 when the insur-
rection kept us busy here, Miles was
obliged to bear his high military hon
ors and worry himself to death over
the great disadvantage the army lab
ored under in their quarrel with the
Filipinos, because he was not on the
ground to direct.
But In the latter part OF 1902 he
found that the Empress Dowager was
back in Picking anu remembered that
he owed her a call Then there was
his old friend, King Edward, whom he
had not seen since the Prince paid the
Western hemisphere a visit. So he
packs his grip and starts out for Pc
king. Incidentally he drops off to call
on his friends in the Philippines and
see how badly the job was done with
out him.
Somehow there was not the enthus-
iasm he expected. No one came round
and said miles, we're glad to see you.
We have been longing for you ever
since we ate raw bacon at CaviteN The
Jobs been botched without you. II
you'd been here 1t would have been
different and you know 1t. ..
But no!-Evefy American he met
gave him the glad hand but there was
no knocking OF the Army. He was
taken out to the spot where Lawton
fell and to other battle grounds Of in.
terest and he heard praise for the off,
GERS and men of the army in the Philip
pines, Their achievements, their sac
rifices, their gallantry. their generosity
were dinned into his ears. And II
seemed to tim that 1t must be impos-
sible that all he heard was true, when
really, don't you know, the lieutenant
general had not even been consulted
in the winning OF all this glory.
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1903-06-16

But Miles could not be downed that
way: II the Americans and foreigners
had high regard for the army here
under those circumstances why 1t was
plain to be seen there was conspiracy
somewhere.
This was his theory and he hunted
up material IN support. 1t was an easy
matter to ind 1t. Miles was Just the
kind of a "bueno hombre" a certain
disaffected class Of outlaws were look
ing for. They wined and dined him
and gave him some tips on the situa-
ton which he had been hunting for
right along. Such luck! Here is
where he really got down to work. Be-
fore all the countries were heard from,
Miles had record sworn TO buy the
truthful brown brothers to the effect
that but five per cent Of the natives
OF the Philippines had escaped being
MANNED or helplessness by the Amer
leans. With this proof in his pocket
that a terrible mistake Rad been made
by not having Miles on the ground
here all the time. Miles was happy.
He was so happy over the evidence
that he actually jollied the Dowager
Empress and gave the crowned heads
OF Europe few quiet tips on how to
be successful or make people believe 1t.
Now he tells the interviewer how it
happened. How the poor brown broth
er" is maltreated and worked to death.
A book entitled MY Lovely Six
Weeks in the Philippines or How Sor-
ry am We Whipped Them" by Lieu
tenant General Nelson A. Miles, is
what we may expect next.

stance where the United States gov
eminent has promoted a policy of de-
struction. There is absolutely no rea-
son why such policy should be ex-
pected or feared in Federal dealings
with this Territory.
Federal control OF the lands is a
practical solution that would advance
every interest of the Territory, inspire
greater confidence among the new set
tiers wanted and place the land ques-
ton in Hawaii beyond the pale Of po-
litical manipulation or favoritism. 1t
will protect present industry and Gre
ate new. That is the sort of policy re-
quired to develope the Territory.

Opposition to Mr.. Winston's candi-
dacy is taking a very remarkable per-
sonal turn. Winston is generally recog-
nized in this community as a hard
worker and a reliable business man.
The fact that he is a candidate for
Office does not relegate him to the cat
egory of hoodlums in the esteem OF
fair minded citizens. The Bulletin is
not offering candidates for Governor
Dole's favor, but 1t is OF the opinion
that the list presented for the Cover
nor's consideration must be a mighty
weak combination II 1t is found that
mudslinging must be adopted to de
feat the man endorsed by Republican
leaders.

CARPENTERS STRIKE
THREE SETS Of men
BAVE LEFT PETER HIGH
WILL NOT WORK NINE HOURS A
DAY - CARPENTERS UNION
LAW STRICT ON THE
SUBJECT.

This morning, John Enos, a carpen.
ter, and a member Of the Carpenters
Union. gave the history of little diff.
ference which is in existence between
Peter High and the Union carpenters
here. Up until this morning High had
one Union carpenter and several non
Union men employed on a certain
piece of work. The men were work.
ing nine hours a day.
. At the meeting of the Carpenters
Union last night this question was
brought up and placed as a charge
against the Union carpenter in ques.
ton. The bylaws Of the Carpenters
Union state that no member shall work
more than eight hours a day. A
breach of this rule is punishable by a
fine OF s. and expulsion from the
Union.
The carpenter in question stated,
however, in his defense, that Mr..
Highs foreman had said that during
this present week work would only
last eight hours a day. The Union
therefore decided to suspend action
until It was found out whether this
promise would be kept or not
This morning, the Union carpenter
went to work. He asked the foreman
IL work would last only eight hours
and was answered that It would last
N,,a
Their stated that he had never promised
It should only last eight. The Union
man thereupon promptly picked up his
tools and quit. With him his fellow
laborers, who were non-Union men,
also left their work. Not only these
but also two other gangs of carpenters
who were working for Mr.. High at two
other places quit work as soon as they
heard of the affair.

THE LAND PROBt EN-.

Opponents OF the Federal control OF
Hawaii's public lands are rapidly ar
guing themselves into the conviction
that the best solution Of Hawaii's land
problem is administration by Federal
authority.
Proof OF the pudding is the eating
and gagged by this common standard
Hawaii's land policy has proved any
thing but a success. Those most ag-
gressive in their opposition to the
Fedrrl' land administration are COM
ing ne front with critical recogni-
tic the local failures. The burden
OF e. onsibility is placed first on the
L, .ssioner of Public Lands and
- II on the Legislature. These crit

TEN that has been lauded to the skies
does not meet the new demands OF the
situation.
The fact Is that our present land law
has been tested and found wanting in
those essentials which will attract the
purchasers and settlers particularly re-
quired for a new line OF development or
In other words, development on ira
dltional American lines. This is the
lesson Of experience dating back to
the period when Hawaii was admin
istered by what has been termed the
"best government on earth" The pub
lie land Office has been in the hands
OF another commissioner than the one
now criticised. The laws have been
open 10 revision by Legislators who
come within the limitations OF what
the present critics call intelligent. Still
the land administration Of Hawaii is
without desired results.
On the other hand this Territory
may have at its disposal Federal land
administration that has built up the
great western States and created the
conditions of land ownership and cit
izenship which Hawaii needs. Here is
a land system that has proved a sue
cess. Why search further and fare
worse? ", N'sf
The Bulletin is aware that much Of
the opposition to the Federal land con-
