In response to q second question II he

ering. this Territory, thereby pro-
tecting it from Infringement by 9TH
ers and against the jeopardiziug OF its
vested rights on this Island. After
while, when a trial has been made
aud the system accepted by the peo-
pie, it could, il ii wanted to, apply
for further franchises coveriag the
other islands, and that seems to us
more plausible, tentative and within
reason. We earnestly bslieve in
proper protection of all rights, and
the public interest conserved and
safeguarded against encroachments
by others seeking new field for
the exploitation of their systems,

ed on the Mainland and have pass

would eventually total an amount
wholly appalling.

Another important point brought
out by the Executive, to which
reference has repeatedly been made
in these columns, is that the water
bill made no guarantees against the
Kuleana water rights and lease
holdings OF taro and other small
planters in the valley. As the bill
passed the Legislature the govern
ment is left with the alternative OF
buying out these rights or elsa sup
plying water to the less,es, and If
the latter course bs followed there
would be no water left for the City.
In other words ths gov ,rnmsnt
would be buying something that it
would either have to purchase
over agsin, or could 1t acquire at
all.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-04-25

Continuing, the Governor points
out that Immediately contiguous to
and above the springs are rssid dences,
with cesspools, stables, etc, aud that
a very large amount of money
would be required for the purchase
of these holdings in order to pro
tect the water from pollution.
With $l500OO for the springs, $780,
600 for developing and a large
amount for the acquisition of ad-
joining lands, the cost OF the system

/. is further noted that the bill is
carelessIy drawn aud is full oil errors
that would probably cause inter
minable confusion, A section OF
the statement bears this frank and
truthful! observation:
"The scheme impresses ma as a
measure vigorously pressed by pri-
vate parties for their own interests,

The provision Of Section 4, that the

WATER BILL VETOED.

The veto by Governor Dole yester-
day afternoon of the notorious ana
nefarious Pauoa water bill was one
of the soundlest Of the sound things
to be credited to the chief executive
during this session. His points
against the bill are unanswerable.
The message embodied in. the veto
comprises an honest, fair and accu-
rate statement OF the facts as they
are, and the Governors version OF
the matter will be acceptable to all
fair.minded men, only those who
hoped to line their pockets by the
deal being left to whine.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-04-25

This puts the matter in such a
clear light as 10 leave no question
about the duty of the Legislature.
The veto should and must bs sus-
tanned. As originally suggested by
THE INDEPENDENT the matter should
be referred to commission for iu-
vestigation and a report at the next
session.

When the Ball Telephone Com
pauy was established in this city
and in theae Islande, it did not ask
more than we think the Standard
should be given. That CON
p,ny was perfectly content with
this Island alone. Subseq rently
another com oany was started in the
pressnt Mutual Telephone Com
pany, which finally absorbed the
other and is now an established in
8, tuition. 1t did not seek, nor has
it yet sought, to control outside and
beyond this Island. The other lei
and companies received the same
privileges aud concessions, and are
content to work in their own special
spheres without saddling a "trust"
on the psople.. And there is where
the proposed new company lost its
chance for the second time in two
years, as it should and ought to
lose,
In the proposed new teiephonio
system, we see stride in advance Of
the older system. We believe it to
bs system worth having. but it
should have been content with one
locality as beginning and not try
to hog all and everything in sight,
as against othsrs who may wish to
60 into the business. Such a
blanket franchise would be too
valuable a concession to grant.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-04-25
WANTED THG WHOLE HOG.

We have been taken to task for
opposing the franchise grant to the
Standard Telephone Co, which fail
ed. We considered that it was on
the part OF the company hoggish
proposition to demand "blanket"
franchise for the whole Territory, it
being stated that the patent could
no. be issued for one section only,
but must be for the whole hog or
none at all. The argument used is
that by limiting it to one locality
or Island it is giving the already es.
tablished telephone companies on
the other islands Of the group
"cinch" over the public.
That argument may be all right,
in measure, but we fail to see it's
plausibility or fairness. And why
not let the different island compa-
nies have that cinch for few years
more, at the most. They have in
vested capital in the several under.
takings and their rights have be-
come vested ones in the eyes OF the
law. Th's companies have given
good service and no complaint has
as yet come in against the present
systems, aud why break them up
with new tangled idea not yet at
tempted or tried here.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-04-25

Mr. Dole starts out by showing
that nearly all the reports made in
regard tc the water were prepared
and submitted by men directly in
terested in the deal, and that the re-
port of officials, not interested, were
oil against the proposition. Both

one else, strongly condemned the
scheme. They showed that the pur-
chase price of Sl5O,OO was merely a
starter toward developing the water,
and that, moreover, it was exceed
ingly doubtful that the property
was desirable asset at any price,
The Governor points out that the
measurements taken by the "inter.
ested" parties showed the volume
of water in the middle OF an unusual
ly wet season, and that there is
nothing in the reports to show con-
ditiops in the dry,

Most authorities put the invention of

de Spina, Il monk of Pisa. in 1885, but
Or. Plot will have it that they were
invented five years earlier by Roger

"Opus Majus' runs thus: This instru-
mcnt, a plano convex glass, is useful to
old men and to those who have weak
eyes, for they may see the smallest let
tiers sufficiently magniiicd.''
This certainly does not claim the in
vention for Bacon. On the other hand,
