Letters Not
To Be Made
Public
SAYS THAT THINGS HAVE
CHANGED NOW AND HE WILL
NOT MAKE THEM PUBLIC.

Governor Carter declines to make
public the letters that he sent to Presi-
dent Roosevelt in the Lanai mat
ter Following the somewhat hur-
ried consummation of the transfer
of the governments 1859 acres
on Lanai for four small pieces
of land in and about Honolulu on Feb
ruary /, the Governor made public a
letter that he had received from the
President, approving of the exchange,
a letter that indicated that the Gov
ernor had written an explanation of
the proposed exchange and represented
that the deal should be made
The Governor expressed himself, fol-
lowing the consumation of the deal,
as. seeing no reason why the letters
sent by him to the President on the
Lanai matter should not be made pub
lie. But he has changed his mind.
This morning the Governor said:
"I stated that saw no reason why
letters to the President in regard to
this Lanai matter should not be made
public, but since then things have
changed and I do not intend to give
them out. The other side has carried
this Lanai matter to such an extent
that I do not propose to publish those
letters. They have attempted to make
political capital out of this, by trying
to involve me with the President over
the matter, and I see no reason why I
should make the letters public

In the treaty between Japan and
the United States which was made in
1894" said Hon. w. o. Smith, Secre-
tary Of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters
Association, this morning, Articles !
and 2 provide for what is called the
most favored nation clause and mat
ters relating to the rights of citizens
or subjects of the two nations in their
enjoyment of privileges in one country
or the other, and Article concludes.
Tt is, however, understood that the sti-
pulations contained in this and IN the
preceding Article do not in any way
affect the laws, ordinances and reguIa-
tions in regard to trade, the immigra-
tion of laborers, police and public ser
vice which are in force or which may
hereafter be enacted in either of the
two countries
Il imagine that if legislation is be-
ing enacted by Congress. as indicated
in the published dispatches, it will be
under this provision Of the treaty
This provision would seem to have
contemplated the possibility of the i'm
migration of laborers being regulated.
Further than this do not think Of any
suggestion or explanation to make.
1T is of course obvious to anyone

SCHEME OF THE SOLONS TO
STEER CLEAR OF THE 100000 AP-
PROPRIATION CONDITIONS.

With the time for the opening of
the legislature less than forty-eight
hours off, the probable organization of
the two houses assumes an additional
interest.
In the House, it seems settled that H.
L. Holstein is to be the Speaker. For
clerk there are four active candidates,
John H. Wise, Nagaran Fernandez, Ed.
Woodward, and A. st. C. Piianaia.
For sergeant-at-arms the candidates
are E. X. Lilikalani, a former member
of the House, and Henry Kawewehi OF
Hawaii. Perhaps also there are some
others.
In the Senate e. F. Bishop is slated
for President, and William Savidge fol
Clerk. For Sergeant-at-arms there are
four candidates: John Lot Kaulukou
now of Hilo, who was speaker of the
House of Representatives in the legis.

houses at the Molokai settlement. The
correspondence covered a period since
1900. Objections were made by the
attorneys for the defendants on the
grounds that the testimony was imma-
terial and Furthermore, none of the con-
Germs were incorporated, until some
time later than 1900.

that the coming of Japanese to these
islands has been a benefit to the ISL
ands and to the Japanese who have
come here, and if the legislation which
has been intimated is enacted the Jap
anese would still be able to come to
these islands"
President E. D. Tenney OF the Plant
ers' Association said this morning:
1T would seem that the difference be-
tween conditions as they were and as
they will be under the immigration law
just enacted, If the cable dispatches are
correct will be merely that passports
from Japan to Hawaii will not permit
the landing of japanese on the United
States mainland unless, perhaps, by
way of surmise, such passports are Wis
ed by the japanese Consul here. 1t
would seem that the passport system
might be changed. 1t appears that Ha-
wall should be very well satisfied"
J. p. Cooke, interpreting the brief
cable advices TO the press, is of the
opinion that any effect, as far as Ha-
wall is concerned Of the immigration
bill just passed, is apparently for Ha-
waits good
No private Washington advices have
been received which would give fur
ther information concerning the bill.
