THE OPENING OF
ALAMA LANDS
1t Awaits a Road Over Lands
of NONRESIDENT
Owners.

The opening of the Alawa lands
awaits only the opening of road.
The opening of the road awaits the
process of a formal refusal of the
owners of land required of the price
offered by the government, and then
the process of award by a road com
mission.
The Alawa lands lie between Judd
and Wyllie streets extended on the
plateau on the Eva side of Nuuanu
valley. They have all been surveyed
and divided into lots under the direc-
tion of Land Commissioner Pratt.
They are inaccessible without road.
The land required for road belongs
to the Rookie Estate, to the Andrews
Estate, and to S. M. Ballou. Each of
these has made an offer to Commits
sioner of Public Works Holloway which
he considers much too high. Hollo-
way has made a counter offer So far
as the Rookie Estate is concerned, its
agents mere are not authorized TO ac-
cept it, and it has been sent to Eng
land for determination there The of
fer to the Andrews Estate has to go
to Iowa. If they are accepted, well
and good. If they are not, then the
Superintendent of Public Works can
appoint board of appraisers.
The money to build the road can be
of the lots, which sale will take place
as soon as the road is assured. This
can be done under a law of 1905 au-
thorizing the expenditure of fifty per
cent of the receipts from the sale of
public lands for the purpose of build
ing roads to the lands.

THE AGRICULTURAL
PROGRESS Of HAWAII

o. st. John Gilbert, who has just re-
turned from an extensive trip around
Hawaii, where he has been looking
into the prospects of the honey, pine
apple and other industries. speaks most
encouragingly of the prospects of the
small landho1der in Kona. Grapes grow
profitably for IL cents per pound
Oranges, coffee and papayas are oil
fiourishing, the only drawback to the
development of Kona being lack of
transportation.
Mr. Gilbert, who had favorable OPP
portunity to examine practically all Of
the Olaa plantation during his trip,
says that. after the reports which have
been circulated in Honolulu, a revela-
ton is in store for any person suff1-
GENTLY interested to maze an examina-
ton of the plantation and see it as it
is today. The cane is in splendid con-
dition and in appearance compares ia
vorably with any cane in these islands,
the second and third ratoons showing
particularly we'll
A most encouraging feature, said Mr.
Gilbert. and one which will add per-
manently to the prosperity of the plan
tation, is the enthusiastic manner in
which the small landholders are enter
ing into the cultivation of cane. These
people have the utmost confidence in
