One of the most important recent
deals in city property, and as well enc
establishing a price for Esplanade
lands, was that by which the Hawaiian
Electric Company secured four lots,
through deal made by J. A. McCand-
less with the government. Owing TO
money for the purpose of acquiring
lands for street widening and the pieces
wanted were so many in number and
of such varied ownership, the fact that
it was possible to find a middleman for
the transaction was welcomed by the
Public Works office.
AS the Hawaiian Electric Company
had commenced to make a deal with
the Public Works department, during
the incumbency of ]. H. Boyd, the price
was never question Of doubt. as Mr..
Boyd and Mr.. McCandless, vice-presi-
dent OF the corporation, agreed to $780,
900. The absence of Mr. Boyd on the
mainland put a stop temporarily to the
deal, but when Mr.. Cooper came In the
negotiations went on and successfully.
the council approving the transfer at
the figure named. There were then five
pieces of land which were needed for
the street widening, and prices had been
agreed upon in each case. AS the gov
eminent needed the land more than the
money for the lots the deal was put
by Mr.. .McCandless, he giving
checks for the various strips. and wind
ing up the deal by giving the Super

Resolutions Adopted at National Con.
vention at Atlantic City.

At the recent national convention of

Societies. held ut Atlantic City. N. j.,
ringing resolutions were adopted on
matters of interest to all good citi-
Zens, but owing to their great length
we give to our readers only those
which we deem as most important.
| On the subject of Socialism the con-
vention declared as follows:
I'VE express our firm intention to
uphold Christian principles, not only
by our opposition to mob rule and law
lessness, but also by declaring our
selves opposed to all principles sub
versive to human society, whether
they be known as liberalism, social
ism, anarchism, or by any other term.
For the preservation of Christian Or
der in society we condemn liberalism
because it proclaims the absolute au
tOnomy of the individual or society
without due regard for the laws of
God and the Church. We condemn
socialism as opposed to natural JUS
tice. since it's primary object is to de-
privc man of the lawful possession of
stable and permanent private proper

of the individual as well as of the fam

Robert Emmet's Dying Wish Regarding the
Erection of His Monument is Now
About to Be Realized.
The Only Force Active in Preventing Self
Rule by the Irish People Was
the Landlord Class.

I grated here are satisfied. pleased with
their surroundings and conditions.
Those who have come here will now
stay at home. because their surround
inSs and conditions will be changed
to allow them to do so. Ireland as Il
country is one of the most fertile OH
the globe: IriShmen are the best farm
ers on its face. Where does England
send for men to harvest it's crops?
| Not to France. Germany or Italy. but
to Ireland. Yet under the old regime
all the 1rishman's labor went eventual
| ~ to the landlords. Now it will go to
him himself. The aim of the new land
bill is the gradual wiping out of dual
real estate ownership by buying out
the landlords Existing purchasers
are to continue only by mutual agree
ment of landlord and tenant. There
is to be a new department created to
cope with the task. which will be un-
der the land commissioners, and known
rs the estates commission. In order
to hasten the transfer of real holdings
the government is to advance the sum
of S6O.WO.O0O to make it worth the
landlords While to dispose of their
property. The purchasing tenant is
promised Il reduction of his purchase
lnStallmentS as compared With the rent
he now pays of from 10 to 80 per cent
OH second term holdings. and from 20
to 10 per cent on rents fixed ,judicially
prior to 1906. When landlords and
tenants come to a bargain the advance
must be made, if within the limitations
set. or, in the absence of any bargain.
the commissioners may purchase with
power to resell to tenants in Occupa-
tiOn or other claimants. in accordance
with the provisions of the law. The
spirit and letter of the new bill give to
the people of Ireland the chance to
own their homes and free themselves
from the hated and oppressing land
lords. 1t means that the English gov
ernment, headed by King Edward, and
ably and warmly aided by Prime Min
lister Balfour and Charles J. Wynd-
ham. will try to remedy the things the
Irish have suffered for many, many
years. The bill proposes even to lend
the money out of the f12 100000 fund
that shall make it possible for the
people to own their own farms again.
The terms of repairment by the peo-
pie are so liberal that the Irish are
iubilant over their prospects,
Continuing his optimistic review, Mr..
Cochran added: "The future of Ire
land is in her own hands. Politics
