WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN

STATED irrigation in the lower levels
of North Kohala, Hawaii and the re-
sumption of pumping in central Maui.
Pastures are in good condition in some
localities, but, in general have begun
to show the effects of the dry weather,
especially in North Kohala, Hawaii,
the Kula and leeward sections of Maui,
and portions of Oahu. Coffee is in
good condition in all sections and has
begun to ripen in the lower lands IT
leeward Hawaii; a good rain would be
beneficial to the trees in windward
Oahu. Pineapples are ripening rapidly
and are being harvested in all sections.
Sisal is being milled in leeward Oahu
and an exceptionally fine grade of fiber
is being secured. Young sisal plants
in central Maui are growing nicely.
The harvesting of FIRST crop rice is pro-
ceedingly rapidly in all sections, and in
some localities blowing and prepara-
ton of land for the second crop have
begun.

The opinion of Deputy Attorney Cen
eral Prosser in the Honolulu Rapid
Transit and Land Company's charter
matter concludes with the following:
1T is the opinion of this department
that while the Act granting the fran
chise to the Honolulu Rapid Transit &
Land Company was voidable, at the
option of the Federal Government, as
an illegal exercise of power, that such
invalidity has been cured by the sub
sequent Act of Congress and by the
approval of the President of the United
States under the authority in him
vested by Section of the Organic Act.
I have the honor to be, yours very
respectfully,

Assistant Attorney General"

ers is contemplating a withdrawal
from the Department, and it is likely
that he will re-enter private practice
before very long. The scale of salaries
established in the department has
made all the incumbents dissatisfied,
in fact, and other Withdrawals are not
at all unlikely.
Peters has been the chief deputy in
the department for long time, and
has handled a lot of important litiga-
ton. His withdrawal, it is stated, is
likely to take place in September.

dends thereon, up 10 this date, is with
in the rights granted to it, as set forth
in Chapter &C of the Revised Laws OF
Hawaii"
Discussing the legality Of the franz
chise the opinion says:
1.-THE Act Of the Legislature of the
Republic of Hawaii, Act SO of the Laws
of 1898, which granted the franchise
under discussion, was passed by both
houses of the Legislature on the 9Th
day of July, 1898, but did not receive
the approval of the President of the
Republic of Hawaii until the after
noon of the 18th day of July, about
p. m. The joint resolution of Con-
gress TO Provide for Annexing the
Hawaiian Islands to the United States
was duly passed by both houses OF
Congress and approved by the Presf-
dent of the United States, on the 9TH
day of July, 1880 and was in force the
whole of the 9TH day of July in the year
1885,
by virtue of such joint resolution,
the Hawaiian Government ceased to
exist as a sovereign power. In other
words, on the 18th day of July, 1898,
there was no such thing i'm existence as
the Republic of Hawaii, and the OIL
cials thereof only continued in office
for the purpose Of performing purely
municipal functions from that date.
The Republic of Hawaii or the Ha-
waiian Government, could, on the date
first mentioned and thereafter, exercise
no valid act of sovereignty, and the
granting of a franchise is, beyond
question, and exercise of such right.
a
I'm pursuance of the power vested
in him by Section 70 of the Organic
Act, above referred to, the President
of the United States approved the fran
chise granted to the Honolulu Rapid
Transit & Land Co., upon a certificate
signed by President Dole of the Repub-
lie of Hawaii, which bears date the
23rd day of May, A. D. 1900 such ap-
prevail also bearing the initials Of the
Attorney General of the United States"

GENERAL SUMMARY.

During the past week, high temper
atures and light variable winds have
prevailed throughout the group. In
Hawaii, heavy rains have fallen in the
Konas, but elsewhere, even along the
windward coast only light showers
have occurred. Heavy rains fell early
in the week in the Koolau district of
Maui, but the WAFER supply in that
section decreased rapidly during the
latter part of the week, while condi-
lions continued steadily dry in all 9TH
err sections of the island. Only light
showers fell in Oahu, but conditions
were much improved in Kauai by
heavy showers in most sections.
1906 cane grew rapidly under the dry
and warm weather conditions, which
were also very favorable for planting
and other field operations in the plan
tations. The dry weather has neces-

Covering Strawberry Beds.

The strawberry patch should be
mulched before hard freezing weather
arrives. In a state of nature the wild
strawberry plants are mulched with
grass and leaves Of many kinds that
the winds carry to them. Under cult.
walton the ground is usually quite bare
and mulching is more needed than
when growing wild. 1t keeps their
roots moist and protected from the
violent changes of temperature. It is
really needless to discuss the merits
Of mulching strawberries because they
are so well known. The main thing
is to do it in time. Just as the ground
begins to freeze, or soon afterward, is
the time to do It.
Fine grass is one of the best mate
rails 20 use for this purpose, because
straw is about the cheapest thing that
can be got that will serve the purpose

METHOD OF LEGAL TORTURE.
England the Last Of Civilized Coun
tries to Abolish Il.

England, as all the world knows,
was the last Of civilized countries to
abolish the test by torture as a regu.
lar legal institution. A historian who
has made a special investigation Of
modern methods of torture has dis.
covered that the barbaric practice is
still common in many out-of-the-way
corners of the globe. The early Eng.
fish system, too, has been widely i'm.
itated. Even in the time of Henry
III the torture trial was in vogue.
First came three days Of preparation
by fasting and prayer. On the solemn
day a caldron was made to boil in
church and stone was placed, appar.
emily, in the boiling water. Two
juries of twelve men apiece were pres.
ent in the interest of accuser and &C.
cused. Both sides tested the water,
and II they agreed that 1t was boiling
the accused thrust in his bare arm
and took out the stone. His arm was
then wrapped in cloth and sealed. On
the third day the priest inspected the
arm and IL 1t was perfectly healed the
accused got off. It seems as II the
testing representatives may have been
tempered with or the examining priest
may have been corrupted.

STUDY FORESTS OF HAWAII.
Interesting Facts Learned by Depart
ment Of Agriculture.

The forests of the Hawaiian islands
have been studied by the servants en-
ployed by the Department Of Agricul'
ture. There are two very distinct
kinds of forests in the islands, one on
the drier lowlands near the sea and
the other on the mountain slopes,
where there is heavy rainfall. The
coastal forest is composed exclusively
Of "algaroba or the mesquite" OF
our Southwest, which was introduced
by Father Bachelot in 1887. From the
original tree, which is still standing
It is estimated that at least 10000
acres of forest have sprung, fairly
well distributed over the different is
lands. The native forest Of the noun.
tain slopes is distinctly of tropical
character. None of the familiar trees
Of the north temperate zone are pres
ent. One looks in vain for oaks, the

Why Animals Rather than Birds.

DR.. Lull is very particular to state
exactly what he believes these foot.
prints to belong to animals rather
than TO birds. THE features which
separate the tracks under considera-
ton from those of birds" he says,
ARE several, though all do not occur
in each instance. They are: First,
the presence of a tail trace which Is
unquestionably reptilian. This may
be a continuous serpentine impression
or a series OF short straight ones as
though the appendage were raised at
every step; or 1t may be a continuous
straight line impressing during the
whole Of the animals walk or just be-
fore sitting on its heels. The occa-
sional impression of fore foot is an
other distinguishing character, and the
presence of irregular dermal scutes
or tubercles upon the skin, though
rarely leaving a record, is certainly
not birdlike."
Though dinosaurs are shaped much
like the kangaroo of the present time
there is no evidence whatever among
