WILL SOON OPEN
LANDS ON MAUI

The Land Department is getting
ready to open lot more lands on Maui
for disposition in various ways. Among
these will be some homesteads at Ka-
maole, near Kihei. These are dry kula
lands, and the natives in that vicinity
want them opened.
Il will give them as much of it as
they may want" said the Land Com
missioner yesterday
Besides these, there will be offered
for sale between four and five hundred
acres of land at Kamaole. Also. it is
proposed to make a clean up eff the
remnants of land in the vicinity of
Olowalu. There are about 1000 acres,
of which something like 400 are in
cane. This cane land, however. is in
scattered tracts and is hard to get
water on. For that reason it is not
going TO be held for settlement pur-
poses. The lands. in fact lie all along
the beach at Olowalu. and are broken
into in various directions by kuleanas
and private holdings. It is expen-
sive land to work, for the reason that
in planting it cannot be plowed but
must be broken up with a pickaxe.
The balance of this 1000 acres con
sists of the dryest kind of pasture land,
salty and sandy. 1t is thought this
will be ready to put on sale about June
30 as will the Kamaole lands.
The Department is likewise getting
ready to survey the Hakalau lands.
which have been applied for by the
'"rtuguese Settlement Associations at
Hilo.

Hon. E. A. Douthitt County Attorney
| for Oahu, Honolulu.
Sir: 1 beg to acknowledge receipt
of your communicat ton of the 18th inst,
in regard to the extension of Young
street to Punahou street through the
property of Mrs. Jaeger.
While it may be necessary to exer-
else the powers given under the laws
of eminent domain in order to ac-
quire this right of way, it might be
possible for the County Supervisors to
submit an offer for the land in ques-
ton which would be entirely satisfac-
tory to the owner thus avoiding con-
demnation proceedings. 1 am fully
aware that the County Supervisors are
without authority to take action I'M
der the eminent domain statute, but
at the same time, it is not to be eX-
pected that Territorial funds will be
used in acquiring rights of way for
County streets. This road cannot be.
considered in any way similar to state
highways on the mainland running
through several counties which are
maintained Jointly by the State and
County officials.
1 cannot see my way clear to con-
demning this property unless it is dis
tinctly understood that the County
Supervisors will bear all expenses of
the commission and pay such damages
as may be awarded to the owner.
Yours respectfully,
(Sgd.) C. S. HOLLOWAY,
superintendent of Public Works.

he is an Achi man. However, Achi is

Honolulu, L. H., May IS, 1906
Hoh. c. S. Holloway, superintendent OF
Public Works, Honolulu.
Dear Sir: By the direction of the
Board of Supervisors [ am instructed
to answer your communication of the
9TH inst, with relation to the extern
sion of Young street through the prop
erty of Mrs. Jaeger, beyond Punahou
street. This is private property, and
could only be taken under the eminent
domain statue. The Board of Super
visors of the County have no power to
institute proceedings by way of emil
nent domain. The Revised Laws, Sec
ton 49S, makes the superintendent of
Public Works the proper party plain
tiff, acting on behalf of the Terrific
of Hawaii.
Should the Territory desire to acquire
this property and condemn the same
under the eminent domain statute, the
Supervisors will be pleased to maintain
the street after the same has been ac-
quired by the Territory.
1 have the honor to be, Sir,
Respectfully yours,
E. A. DOUTHITT,
County Attorney, County of Oahu.

KOREANS AND
CARL SMITH
Bar Association Calls
the HiIo Attorney
to Account.

Carl S. Smith, the Hilo attorney and
a member of last Legislature. is called
upon by the Hawaiian Bar Association
to defend his professional conduct with
relation to the case of the five Koreans
lately condemned to death for murder.
Two of the men were saved from the
gallows at the eleventh hour partly in
spite of Mr. Smith, although he was the
counsel assigned by the court for the
defense of the six Koreans accused of
the crime.
1t is not exactly for Mr.. Smiths mere
opposition to the movement for COM
mutation that he is brought to book,
but for his having exposed in writing
the condolences of his unfortunate
clients. A resolution passed by the Bar
Association. at a meeting held yester
day morning, in it's preamble referred
to a letter purporting to have been
signed by c. S. smith, a member of
the Association, in reply to a letter by
F. W." Milverton. Deputy Attorney
General. to him, and submitted both
letters as exhibits. The resolution it
self follows:
Resolved, That a committee of three
members of this Association be ap-
pointed by the President with direc-
tions to investigate the matter of the
conduct of said Smith in the premises,
and all other circumstances surround
ing the matter and to report the re-
suit of its investigation with its recon-
TO this Association at
special meeting to be called by the
President for that purpose"

The LIE Doux Case.

August E. Ritter, one of the jurors
who convicted Mrs Emma LIE Doux
of murder In the first dergee, fixing
the penalty at hanging, and who is
charged with misconduct in derroga-
tion of his solemn. oath as juror,
arrived in Stockton from the East
tuesday afternoon. ..LFriday at 10
O'Clock Mrs LIE Doux will appear
before Judge Nutter for sentence and
to further argue the motion for a new
trial begun July 9th last.
1t will be remembered that upon
the 9th of July Attorney Fairall, re-
presenting Mrs LIE Doux, moved for
new trial and in closing his argument
presented two atfidavits. one from
man named Murphy and another from
a man named Smith, who each swore
that Ritter expressed himself in
strong terms, saying that he would
hang Mrs LeDoux and that her neck
should be broken. These two atlantis
we're cited to appear for contempt of
court and being found guilty by
Judge Nutter we're sentenced to
serve term OF two days in the
county Jail each.
Attorney Fairall moved the court
Immediately after the proceedings to
have juror Ritter cited for contempt.
Judge Nutter refused at that time,
but instructed district attorney
Norton to have Ritter In court if
possible on August 3rd. In justice
to himself, perhaps. and to the pro-
secution, Mr. Ritter has been pur-
posely advised not to speak with any
person regarding the unpleasant
affair.
At last screens have been placed
over the windows of the cell in the
woman's department of the Jail and
now Mrs LIE Doux has possession of
the north cell on the San Joaquin
street side. She Is allowed the free
dom of small corridor and in it
obtains daily exercise. The screen
is of ordinary texture, yet withal it
will be impossible to obtain NOR
phine from outside sources.
The LIE Doux case is made of COM
plexities. 1t is perhaps like any
other murder tIial-hotly contested
by opposing attorneys, but more
hornets nests have matured in this
case, according to popular opinion
than in any that have gone. 1t is
quite evident that more trouble is
brewing in the legal chaldron, but it
is impossible to gather it's import
for they all ''refuse to speak. ~

TIE APACHES.
This Tribe Holds the Record as Bad
Indians.

Scarcely tribe of our American In
dams but what have engraved their rec
ord Of crime and infamy high up or
history's wall, yet above them all is the
Apaches'.
From 1910 to 1853 New Spain and
Mexico carried on a so called warfare
with these people. The Apaches were
vastly outnumbered by the Mexican
soldiery, but what they lacked in num-
bers was more than made up in cour-
age and craftiness. The Apache ever
had thorough contempt for the MeXi.
can soldier, and in later years, when
they were fighting with firearms as
well as arrows, they would not waste
cartridges on the Mexicans, but would
kill them with arrows, spears and
stones, saving their cartridges for other
and more worthy foes.
When this southwest region became
a part of the United States the Apaches
were serious problem with which we
had to contend. Our government vacil-
lated between a simpering peace policy
and the other extreme, their externnina-
ton.
Their zone of wandering being inter.
sected by the international boundary
line further complicated matters. They
would raid down into Mexico and then
rush back with the plumber to our side
Of the line, out of reach of the pursuing
soldiers. Next it would be a raid on
the Arizona side and a flight into the
wild mountains of Sonora. The Next
can government attempted to assist
their miserable army by giving scalp
bounty, and for years they paid out
their gold coin for Apache scalps.
Scalp hunting became a recognized in
dustry The horror of this was that to
the Mexican official all scalps looked
alike, whether from the head of a hos
tile or a friendly Indian. The price
was $100 for man, $50 for woman
and $25 for child. 1t is small wonder
that the tribe sank deeper into say
agery than ever when we stop to think
that the men knew there was a price
set on the scalps of their wives and
children, and there was a horde of
human fiends, white in color, but more
savage than the savage himself, who
were hunting them as they would a
cougar of the mountains.-E. S. Curtis
