WANT LANDS
ON TANTALUS
Tract Desired Likely to
Be Put Up on
Lease.

An application for the purchase of q
piece of vacant land ON Tautalus has
| led to the consideration very seriously
| of what may prove to be new de
parture in the disposition OF lands OF
this class. The land in question con
sists of 4.S6 acres, between the lands of
Schmidt and Peterson, and not far from
the Cooper, Davis and Brown places.
1t is very slightly piece of land indeed,
and very desirable for mountain resi-
dence purposes. The applicant asks for
the purchase of the tract as one lot.
''In the first place. said Land Com
missioner Pratt yesterday, if it is put
up at all, it viii be as several lots. and
not as one piece. Then, / have under
consideration plan to put this land so
as to avoid selling it outright This
plan is to put the lots up on twenty
one year leases, thus allowing the lands
to revert to the government at time
when, perhaps, it will be desired to es-
tablish a park on Tantalus. 1t is long
time, twenty-one years, almost gen
Grafton, and at the end of it the land
will not have been hurt by use. In
fact, it will be more valuable. In the
meantime, it viii have been used forl
residence purposes
\ number of people now living on
Tantalus have evolved a plan for the
disposition of bungalow rights up there.
That is, the person granted bungalow
rights would be allowed to build on GER
tain tracts, but would be given no title
to their lands. Then, at the end of GER
tain periods the lands would revert to
the state. This is the policy of the
United States Government in Yellow |
stone Park. However, under the Ha- |
waiian law as it stands now, this is not |
practicable, but by Mr.. Pratt's scheme |
Of long leases for lands that may here j
after be needed for park purposes, the
same effect is reached.

Clearly, as the Acting Governor had
not done it at all. he was aggrieved
that the county committee. right at the

a vote of censure uDon him, and some
thing of this kind he said TO the COM

were some printed reports about him
and his actions that he did not always

OAHU COUNTY
CLOSE To
DEBT
Warrants Nay Have to
Be Registered Before
Very Long.

The great and puissant County o.
Oahu is sailing pretty close to debt anf
the registering of warrants. Indeed
the financial condition has reached &
stage where it has become most serious
and so far there has been shown nc
The tendency has been rather the other
way, for the reason that the election is
coming on apace, politicians are getting
active and voters must be kept at
work.
The County of Oahu started this cur
rent year with very handsome balance
to the good. That was because the
taxes last year were all paid in the
tvs pro rata was sum worth while.
On the 7th of January, at all events,
the county had in its treasury the sum
of $135,000. Since then, there has been
Territorial Treasurer sums amounting
in all to $4,000. And there is now in
the Treasury the sum of $500 precise
ly.e OF this sum, there are warrants of
the county outstanding tt 51700.
That will be starting the with
q pretty small margin, even with the
new taxes to come in.
1t Is estimated that the County of
Oahu gets from the Territory to pay it's
running expenses the sum of $40, 900 per
month The Supervisors, it is said by
Treasurer Trent, are spending at the
rate OF $4,000 a month. How long it
viii take to reach the bottom of the
hill, gliding along smoothly and easily
at s:.i3 rate. isssatot hard to calculate.
81 would write a letter setting forth
these facts, to the Supervisors, said
Treasurer Trent yesterday, but where
is the good2 They would only say,
Trent is doing politics, and throw my
letter into the waste basket
And that reveals a pretty serious
condition of affairs-one in which every
citizen and taxpayer in the County of
Oahu is interested. Nobody supposes
that the Supervisors have committed
any wrong, nor that there has been ac-
tuaIly wrongful use of the public funds.
But it is unquestionableg that lot of
voters are provided with jobs-and it
is in part the old story of business men
being careful of their own affairs, and
bringing q somewhat different spirit to
the consideration of the affairs of the
public.
Whatever the cause, that is the con-
dition that has been reached. The sum
of $255, 900 has been spent since the
first of the year, and on an income of
$42 900 month 5000 a month are
being spent, according to County Treas
urer Trent, who keeps the pay rolls.
