provision Of facilities for the education

HAWAI-. THEIR GOAL
MANY IoWANs ARE GOING TO
LEAVE THE STATE FOR THE
ISLANDS.

Honolulu, H. T., Jan. 29.-Settlers
will soon be coming this way II pro-
ject now in the hands of the Hawaii
Promotion Committee can be success.
fully pushed to completion Secretary
Boyd of the committee, has received
inquiries from a company at Des
Moines. Iowa, for large tract of land
Which can be suh-divided and sold to
American settlers. These large tracts
of land have been secured through the
efforts of the committee, to be placed
at the disposal of the American Trust
and Investment company provided
terms are satisfactory.
The letter relating to the pros
pectiye coming of settlers is as fol-
lows:
'Des Moines, Ia, Dec. 81, 190a.-To
the Hawaii Promotion Committees: We
are looking for a good opportunity for
securing a large tract of land for the
purpose of selling out in smaller pieces
to settlers. What opportunities are
there to be found in the Hawaiian Is
lands? Please give, us such informa-,
ton as you can as to lands, available
pieces and what the inducements are
to buyers. What can be produced
from 1t. climate, etc,
Hoping to hear from you soon, we
are, yours truly, American Investment
49, W., NY <AiiSuS MCrAillllNil,
President"
Because Of the fact that the terri
tory cannot under the organic act
ALLEVIATE lands In tracts of more than
one thousand acres to any corporation
the Hawaii Promotion committee sent
copies of the letter to va
rious real estate agents of the ter
ritory, In reply offers have been re-
ceived placing at the disposal of the
promotion committee three tracts Of
land, from 1900 to 5000 acres each in
extent, which are suitable for small
farmers. These offers have been for-
warded to the company at Des Moines,
and probably some definite arrange
ment may soon be made as to the taxi
ing over Of a tract for settlement.
Whether the deal goes through or not,
the fact that large corporations are
beginning to look this way, Is taken
as an indication of progress for Ha-
wall In the future. Net only would
the territory benefit from the settle
ment Of a large tract by small farmers
but it is also felt that the advertising
made necessary in disposing Of the
land by the American Trust and In
vestment company would result in
great good to the islands

THAT LOVE FEAST.
Illinois Republicans View Its Results
With Critical Ewes,

Springfield, ILL.,, Jan. 29.-Out Of the
turmoil and the hurly-burly in the
concourse of republican politicians
few obtrusive facts;
Vespasian Warner is in the front
rank Of the candidates for the repub.
lican nomination for governor.
Frank O. Lowden gained considera-
bly, through conditions attending the
love feast.
Governor Yates friends are standing
Loyalty by him, show no signs of weak,
ening, and think he will win.
H. ]. Hamlin made friends by his
able, prudent speech at the love feast,
and thereby strengthened himself
Charles s. Deneen developed no spe-
cial strength in the country districts.
For him all depends on the showing
he can make in Cook county.
James A. Roses candidacy Is new
factor in the situation and complexities
matters in southern Illinois, especially
for Yates and Lowden.
l.. Y. Sherman's loYe-feast speech
lost him friends even among his for
mer supporters, and in the opinion of
many of his protested admirers made
his nomination impossible.
The "hammer-tnroWing" contest
among some of the speakers was q
bad blow for the "love-feast'" idea, and
there are predictions that in future
campaigns the function will be aban-
doned.

MOUNT CHARLES, County Done
gal, Ireland, May 3.-The Gaelic
league is surely progressing. They
have brought down the British parlia-
ment. The latest is that this body has
had to stock a font Of Irish type in
order to print in their parliamentary
papers the Irish correspondence of a
Munster justice of the peace who has
been suspended for persisting in sign
ing his name in Irish only to legal docs
uments. BY the way, their king in
dorses every new law in a foreign Ian
guage-le roi veult. I move that they
suspend the king. American applicants
for the proposed vacancy should apply
early inclosing certificates of compe-
tency and character.
But the Gaelic league is progressing.
The obstinate and anti-Irish Irish ma
tionaI board of education has just
after stubborn resistance, issued a bI-
lingual programme Of instruction for
the use Of schools in all Irish-speaking
and in all bi-lingual districts This Is
great victory for the league. But the
leaguers will not rest upon their lau-
rels. They continue the fight till such
programme Is provided for all the

other day, and after some minutes had
my attention attracted by a cheer ris-

thin line of people was drawn along the
slde-path curb, that bodies of soldiers
with flashing steel in air were praneing
down the street, and some carriages
were following the soldiers. The cheer
(Which was very far from full grown)
crawled onward with the carriages. and
the thin line of people turned and went
1stlessly about their business again.
It was King Edward VII. and his

that the reception accorded royalty in
