Is Postponed
OWING TO INCLEMENCY OF THE
WEATHER LAND COMMISSIONER

Land Commissioner Pratt has post
poned his trip to Kauai. He had plan
ned to go by the steamer Mikahala to-
day to Kappa to arrange about the
proposed demonstrating of the Kappa
lands. There are a number of Portu-
guese and natives who have expressed
the desire to go upon those lands and
Pratt intended to confer with them
relative to their desires and also to
arrive at some understanding whereby
they would comply with the various
provisions demanded by the Land De-
partment
But the inclemency of the weather
has caused a postponement of the trip
until next week. There is southerly
weather prevailing and as the Land
Commissioner could not risk being
weather-bOund for an extra trip on
Kauai, he thought it wiser to postpone
the visit untol better weather prevails.
Furthermore, the visit on Kauai would
have to be made while good weather
prevailed as Pratt will have to pass
considerable time out of doors, look
ing over the lands. r. w. Breckons
the attorney for the Spaulding inter-
ests, had planned to visit Kauai at the
time that Pratt went but Breckons has
also postponed his trip until next week.
