REAR RANGE SITE
DEFINITELY CHOSEN
Slight Change Made
From Selection Of
Last Waek

There has been aipther slight
change in the selection of site for
the rear range light, but the matter
is now regarded as being definitely
settled. The light will be erected on
the wharf within a few feet of the
site tentatively selected by Governor
Frear and United States Engineer
Captain Otwell last week.
1t was found that the first site
was a little too close to the edge OF
the wharf and would interfere with
the moorlng of vessels. So a slight
change was made, and the site as
now decided upon will bring the edge
of the light on the line Of the Wal
kiki Fort street curbing, leaving a
space of about six feet between the
corner of the light and the edge of
the wharf. This is enough for a
passage, and there Is plenty of room
left on the wharf for the mooring of
vessels.
The matter will now be turned
over to Washington for final ap-
proval.

turn for Waipouli and

The question: as to what disposition
shall be made of the Government lands
on Kauai, recently under lease to the
Makee Sugar Company, was taken up
for consideration by Governor Frear
this morning and the Robins Egg
Blue chamber looked like the head
quarters of the commander Of an army
preparing for battle. The room was
cleared for action, and maps and blue
prints were Spread over the floor ami
.he tables, while the Chief Executive
of the Territory was down on his
hands and knees sizing up the situa.
,ion.
Colonel z. S. Spalding has come over
from Kauai to take the matter up with
the Governor, and he was on hand
this morning. After he had gone to
the Governor, Secretary Mott-Smith
and Land Commissioner Pratt spread
the maps of the land in question out
on the floor and went over them care
fully.
The Governor appears to have the
lay of the land well In mind and
knows where every little stream, res
ervoir, shed, railroad and landing Is,
what land Is in cane and what in rice
or not in use.
Spaldi2c-'a 'oR~e &C Kapaa expired
last May, and his least D. -.1aNola in
March. but he has year in which to
get his crops off. These were 30-year
leases. For Kamamaloo Spalding paid
$1,000 year rental; for Alahena $3lC
and for Kapaa and Anahola $500
These lands total about 10000 acres
including in the neighborhood of 250O
acres of fine cane land.
Through the expiration of the lease
the Government falls heir to all the
Improvements that we're placed on the
land during the time of the lease, in
Guiding railroads, landings, reservoirs,
buildings, etc. The Olahena lease has
still two or three years to run.
The Sugar Company, of course, Is
anxious to secure a renewal OF the
lease of the cane lands, both on &C
count of continuing to raise cane on
them and because of the fact that the
