"The Olney school team challenged
the Grace Church team to play a match

challenge. The Grace Church boys must
have been afraid of Us evidently, for

the number of white men belonging
there is small and the number of fam.
lilies still smaller, yet Honolulu would
be very sorry to lose the trade of that
little community.
Let us suppose. a perfectly practical
thing, that there were fifty or hun.
dred colonies like Wahiawa In these
islands. What would be their effect
on business, on politics and on social
conditions? And would they In the
least degree injure the sugar indus.
, try?
There may be a few sugar planters
who are hostile to the policy OF set.
Ting immigrants from America and
Europe on our public lands, but ! am
satisfied that the majority are not.
They are very much engrossed In
their own enterprises and have little
time to devote to public questions of
kind that they feel do not directly in
terest them. do not think that they
are even Indifferent to such policy.
/ The Land Act of 1895 was carried
through the first Legislature OF the Re
public of Hawaii with the assistance
of the sugar interest, and yet that ACT
| was distinctly in favor Of the policy
under consideration, and materially les
sened the facilities of acquiring pupllc
lands by large cultivators, either by
way OF lease or purchase.
A live question: pressing upon tho
controlling proprietors OF the sugar
plantations at the present time Is
! whether, for the sake of obtaining
labor and building up in their planta-
lions labor force, they shall adopt the
government policy in relation to their
own lands. There Is understood to be
available labor OF high character from
Europe, II a reasonable inducement OF
land in fee simple Is offered.
Although this proposition should be
inviting on other grounds than that OF
mere direct business results. let us look
at 1t on this ground, which Is prob
ably almost the sole one on which the
planters will consider 1t.
There are on many Of the sugar plan
tations hundreds OF acres which are
so situated or OF such a character as
to be substantially unavailable for the
agricultural uses of such enterprises
They comprise side hill land, small
gulches, rocky and and places incon-
yeniently situated. Much OF such odds
and ends would be acceptable to the
homeseeker in connection with the
steady demand for his work which
would be a part Of his inducement
There are also generally extensive
areas used as pasturage, for which
there is less need now than formerly
which II cut up for the homeseeker'
would certainly fulfill more impor
tant purpose than furnishing pastur
age. Some OF these lands are owned
by the corporations in fee simple, 9th
ers are leasehold. Both kinds couk
be used for this purpose II the pro
prietors endorsed the plan, as In thu
case OF leased land the government. un
der its long established policy OF liant
settlement, would, without doubt, maxi
Che necessary arrangements.

 in favor of Miss Chappell and Mir. Ross
 the contestants. This has been hard
 fought contest and Miss Cnappell and
 Mir. Ross are to be congratulated an
 winning so valuable tract of land. This land WAS first entered by four members of the Matlrs family as home steads, who sold their relinquishments for said entries to the Imperial Land Company. The contestants brought suit against the Mathrs entrymen. When the trial was heard w Fl. O'Bayan appeared and claimed preference rights by purchase nf the Mathes relimquish- ments. The Register and Receiver at Los Angeles decided in his favor. The contestants appealed and the Secretary of the Interior has now ruled that O'Bryen hal no rights and that Miss Florence Chappell and Mir. Geo. +. Ross are entitled to enter the land.

Bryan Says Morton Should GO

Lincoln, Neb., May 20.-Mr. Bryan,
in the Commoner Of today, points
out the wide divergence between the
utterances OF the President at Dem
yer just after he had finished his
Colorado hunt, and the Secretary OF
the Navy, Mr.. Morton, before the
International railroad convention, on
the question OF railroad rate regula-
tion. He says it has become sppar-
ent that the President should ask
Mr.. Morton to step down and out Of
the cabinet and concludes by saying:
There ought to be no public joint
debate between the President and
one OF his secretaries as to what the
President really wants done. 1t is
to be hoped that the President has
so strengthened himself by his out
door exercise that, having put the
bears to flight, be will now be able
to put to fight the Secretary Of the
Navy, whose presence in the cabinet
is a standing embarrassment to the
Presidents efforts to bring the rail.
roads under efficient regulation.
