TO FACE
OTHER CHARGES

B. Haywood Wright, former chief
clerk in the Public Works office, will
have to answer for five more indict-
ments for embezzlement The grand
jury returned the indictments against
him on Saturday, but they were placed
on the secret file, until Wright could be
arrested. He has not been placed I'M
der arrest but will be allowed his lib
erty on the old bond, having promised
to appear in court this morning.
There are already two charges against
Wright, and he will be tried on one to-
day. The trial today is for the alleged
embezzlement of $4,000 check given by
the Hawaiian Electric Co. Wright de-
MES his guilt on each charge, and AYERS
that he has turned the money into the
Public Works office, during all the time
he was chief clerk.
Wright is charged in the five new in
dlctments with the embeZzlement of
S39OO said to be the money which Chas.
clark, superintendent of Kalihi camp.
claims to have paid to him. The alleg-
ed embeZzlements extend over a period
from July 8, 1901, to December 2, 1902.
There are three counts in each indict-
ment, each relating to a separate trans
action.
indictments have been returned also
against Vim Quon, the Chinese charged
win committing perjury in Judge Rob-
lnsons court, and against John Brown
ana ;. Il. Thomas for burglary There
are also indictments for sodomy and
larceny in the second degree.

IReLAND'S Bright FUTURE.

with settlement of the yexed land
question which has kept ireland in a
ferment for genera tons almost in
SIGHT the prospect for that fuller free
dom which will come with Home Rule
grows dazzlingly bright 1t has been
a long time coming. Irishmen the world
over have agitated, collected and con-
tributed funds. crime has been COM
mitted and misguided men have court
ed martyrdom, until it seemed that
there was no hope.
But the day of the young man has
come. What none of the older heads
of Great Britain would seriously try
to solve has been undertaken by the
young premier, Balfour. and from his
intimate acquaintance with affairs in
the troubled Emerald Isle will come a
measure which will give fee title homes
to a half million Irish families, remove
the burden of landlordism and in the
end procure a contented. peaceful peo-
pie, though it may be asking too much
that the present generation ever can be
a thoroughly loyal one. The terms of
the measure are not all known but
Walter Wellman, the distinguished
in the Review of Reviews:
Landlords are to have twenty-three
years purchase of their second-term
rents, or f23,OOO for an estate renting
at $1,000 a year, one-half in cash, to
enable them to clear off their debts,
and one-half in land. stock bearing
about four per cent. interest. This will
assure the landlords their present net
ipnnn1p with thn oINya N n nf nrin1p
security in place of the existing I'M
certainty. Tenant purchasers are to
pay eighteen years rent in terms of
fifty or sixty years, making their an
nual payment considerably less than
their present rent, and with ownership
instead of endless tribute at the end
of the period. Most landlords are glad
to sell, all tenants willing to buy on
these terms. The difference of five
years purchase, and the difference be-
tween the three per cent. the govern
ment will have to pay for about e1OO.-
100000 of capital or credit and the two
and one-half or two and three fourths
per gent. it will get from the purchas-
ing tenants, is the bonus which the
state must pay for contentment and
prosperity, and in the end for loyalty
annual cost of carrying and amortiza-
tion of this bonus will be under mil
lion pounds sterlng,-the best invest
ment for the unity and strength of the
empire England ever made, even If
every penny of it must come out of
the treasury. But the treasury will
not have to bear it. With the land
question settled. members of the cabi-
net tell me the cost of Irish admins
tration can easily be reduced G1,000,000
year. For instance, the royal con-
stabulary, a standing army of $4,000
men, maintained almost entirely be-
cause the landlords think they need II,
costs f1,S50,0O0 a year With landlord
ism abolished, this standing army may
be largely dispensed with,--be reduced
to one-quarter or one-third it's pres
ent numbers and cost"

LEGISLATORS AT WORK.

There is a refreshing air of activity
in the Legislature, now that differences
in the House have been wiped out and
the members of that body are permitted
to get down TO work. Some of the old
friends, like Kaniho's vaccination re-
peal, crop up, but this is the froth
which will be blown off and the real
current of business will set strong to-
ward good legislation, and the results
of the session will be apparent in the
placing on the statute books of laws
which will make for the good OF the
Territory.
The Senate is in advance of the House
naturally, having passed through the
organization stages last year, but even
in that business like and progressive
body, the moves made yesterday in the
matter Of county legislation are worthy
OF remark. The bill has been read twice
by title, has gone to committee and will
be printed, translated and ready for
consideration in the shortest time pos
sible. The intention expressed is to
rush the work along and secure final
action before the session is more than
three weeks old so that the House may
be able to take up the bill and having
Hau the advantage OF the senate ulS-
cussions and the printed bills from that
branch, give it a speedy journey
through to submission to the executive.
The House will be in excellent shape
for its consideration, for with the bill
introduced and read twice by title, ihe
substitution of the Senate measure will
save two days and enable the commit
tee to make rapid progress. That there
will be some amendment of the meas
ure is inevitable, and the discussions
in the caucus have indicated that the
majority party wants to make slight
changes, but these will be immaterial,
the fundamental principle of the meas
ure Will be the same. and the Inaugural
ton of the system of government of
which so much is expected by the peo-
pie, will be made under circumstances
which are of the best
But while action as to appropriations
or Improvement legislation must wait
for the new system, there are other
matters which the busy men of the
House will not permit to lie by, but
which will be pressed, and the ses-
sion promises to be a profitable one for
the Territory.

THE CASE OF A. SUMTER.

Some days ago A. Sumter wrote and
published a series of questions about
small farming in Hawaii which indi-
Gated doubtful state of mind. They
were questions which seemed to imply
that fair answers to them would con-
denim small farming as a thankless
task. Since then the Advertiser has
made some inquiries about Mr.. Sumter
and is surprised and gratlfied to learn
that he himself is signal example OF
what white man can do with no capt.
tai but pluck and industry in the de-
velopment Of raw Hawaiian land
Several years ago Mr.. Sumter bought
some wild land at Keaau, near Olaa,
Hawaii. unaided he cleared fifteen
acres and brought such fine crop of
coffee into bearing that he was able 10
sell the farm for several thousand dol
lars. This money he put into one hun
