Lands May
Be Exchanged
Secretary MOtt=Smith InveS=
tigates OmaopiO.

The lands at Omaopio have been
thoroughly inspected by E. A.
Mott-Smith, Secretary of the Tori
tory in the interest of the Terri
tory.
These lands are desired by some
OF Mr.. Baldwi1s interests and as
the same are not the best lands for
homesteads but are valuable to the
plantations it is possible that better
lands for homestead purposes may
be had IN exchange for them.
AS this is the case Mr.. Mott-Smith
was here this week, to throughly
inspect the same in order to be in
a position to act intelligently in
the matter.
He completed his work by We'd
nesday and returned home by The

The Plot Local
in Honolulu.

Honolulu, March 31.-According
to statements made by local Jap
anese it is believed that Special
Envoy Stevens would have been as
sassinated in this city had he left
the steamer while here. While
there are few grounds on which such
an opinion can be based, the fact
that the Korean patriotic societies
in San Francisco, Seoul and this
city are constantly in communica-
ton by cable and have openly re-
joiced over the minister's death has
led to this conclusion.
Correspondent Haskins, who pass
ed through here ON the Mongolia is
quoted as saying that Stevens sus-
pected a plot to kill him and book
ed long i'm advance on many steam
ers. This is hardly borne out by
the utter lack of all precautions for
his safety i'm SAN Francisco,

of Local Rubber.

F. r. p. Waterhouse, who has
been away for nearly five months

companies owned by Hawaiian cap

ing passenger yesterday in the Mon
golia.
Mr.. Waterhouse in talking about
his trip this morning remarked that
he was very much pleased with the
conditions of affairs at the two plan
tations at Tanjong Olok and Pahang,
which are owned entirely by local
capital.
we have altogether about 900
acres which are bearing trees and
about 5000 which are cleared but
implanted at present. The man
ayers expect to have the land ready
for planting very shortly and | can
see no reason why they should not
become two of the most successful
plantations in the world in time.
/ made a very thorough study
of conditions on each plantation,
and also visited other plantations in
Java and Ceylon. The Pear rubber
plantation which is owned by Pear
of soap fame adioins our plantation
at Pahang and is one of the finest
in the world.
/ have seen trees on his planta-
ton which have yielded 16 pounds
of rubber to the tree in one year,
and | hope in a short time that the
trees on our plantations will do as
well.
I was away from one Of our
plantations for nearly a month, and
| have seen trees that have grown 2
inches in circumference in that time.
The climate there is the best in the
world for the rubber industry, but |
think that in time Hawaii will pro-
duce Just as good rubber.
/ have samples of rubber from
our trees, that compare very favor
ably with the same kind Of rubber
from other plantations in the same
diatrict.
Il have made very thorough
study of rubber, and | earnestly
hope that it will do some good to
the industry here.
Regarding my investigations for
the Board of Agriculture and Fores-
try, | would rather not say anything
at present about it, as-I will make
my report later on, after have made
trip to the rubber plantations on
the islands,
THE labor that we have on our
plantations is composed of Chinese,

to be very good workers, but | do

Explains
Denies Implied Charge re
Nahiku Road.

Hama, Maui, /. ii. Mar. II, l90o.
Editor Maui News
In the issue of your paper of
March 21st 1908, is given a report
of the proceedings of the Board of
Supervisors al their last session,
and presuming your report as given
in said issue to be correct, where
the writer is mentioned, l would
respectfully ask you to give space
in your valued paper to the follow
ing, to correct false impression,
which our Supervisor Mr.. Haia APP
parently is endeavoring to give the
Board of Supervisors as well as the
public, in re a petition as to the
proposed road between Keanae and
Nahiku.
The writer is given the credit,
by Mr.. Haia, of being the origina-
tor of such petition. however, | re-
gret to say, that | can not justly
claim that honor, but as far as
having drawn the petition on the
request of people interested in the
welfare of this district, and besides
being signer and having advocat-
ed such measures as are held forth
in said petition, | admit.
The report further implies that
signatures were obtained under
Misrepresentation, and that the
Hawaiians did not understand the
full purport of said petition, be-
cause the same were not set forth
in Hawaii To such claim | can
only sSy, that this does not concur
with thu facts, as | am informed
by Mr.. M. H. Reuter-, who present
ed such petition to the Hawaiians,
and himself a part Hawaiian,
thoroughly conversant with English
and Hawaiian, that he explained
to the signers fully the purport of
said petition, and that they knew
full we'll, what they put themselves
on record for, which | have had
verified by uninterested parties.
The sincerity of the second petit
ton, obtained and which holds
forth a contrary purpose, and TO
which only some OF the signers of
the former petition are parties, is
open to doubt, particularly when
both the motive and the mode of
getting these parties talked over to
sign is considered; as to the action
of the Board of Supervisors in ac-
cepting such report and petition as
filed by Mr.. Haia, without first OBJ
tanning an expression of views from
the individual singers of the form
er petition, of whom several are
white meh, representing large in
terest in the immediate vicinity
affected by such petitions. so it
seems, the same is tantamout to a
reflection on such persons integrity,
and very arbitrary way for Coun-
ty officials to indulge in.
Respectfully yours,
n. OMSTED.

Astonishing
Sentence
Guilty q MansIaughter
Fined One Dollar.

From an indictment OF murder
in the first degree to a conviction
of manslaughter in the third de-
gree is a long leap and then when
the Court imposes a sentence of on
ly one dollar on the criminal with
out penal servitude and RENTS all
costs we have sentence that has
been equalled but once in the his
tory of the Territory yet this is
just what happened in the Circuit
Court of the Second Circuit of the
Territory on Monday of this week
when Judge A. n. Kepoikai impos-
ed sentence on Higaki Ryosuki.
The memorable ruling of the
Court, which caused the quashing
of the Indictment on the ground
that the First Deputy Attorney
General was not legally authorized
to represent the Attorney Generals
Department for the reason that he
was not specially commissioned
officer for this particular court,
although he had repeatedly been re-
cognized as such on previous oc-
casions in this court and in every
other court of record of the Terri
tory, is matter of history.
A new indictment was found
charging the defendant with muir
der IN the first degree and the case
was tried before jury.
The Territory was represented by
County Attorney D. H. Case whe
put up good case against the de-
fendant.
The evidence was that the vic
tim was found dead in a cane field.
The physician testified that she
had been dead. between three and
four hours, That she was strangled
to death, that there was nothing
around her neck to strangle her.
The defendant was found lying by
her side. An obi was wound twice
around his neck and then tied
twice in hard knot, one enl OF
the obi was tied to the dead gils
wrist. The defendant was uuc2n-
scious.
Whether she. strangl herself
to death alone (Which is Durlly
probable) or whether the defend Mt
had a hand in strangling her to
death was for the jury to decide.
1t is certain that the child after
her death did not have much TO do
with strangling the man even if
the one end of the obi was lied to
her wrist.
Attorney J. NJ. Nivas represent
ed the defendant and made one of
the best defences he has made here.
AT the argument before the jury it
was noted that Attorney Vivas
who is a sick man, was not at him
self and showed fatigue He how
ever, recovered himself toward the
last of his argument and made a
good plea for his client,
1t is understood that the jury
stood six for acquittal and six for
conviction of murder il the first
degree on the first ballot. After the
jury were in their room for over an
! hour it was announced that they
had arrived at a verdict of man
! slaughter in. the third degree with
a recommendation for mercy.
Just how they arrived at such
a verdict Is a mystery. There
are many who contend that the
case was one of manslaughter as
the evidence showed that the = lie

Ignores Union Printing Shops
in Having His Books
Published.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2-DespIte the
protestations of william Jennings
Bryan about his friendship for union
labor, he has ignored union publish
ing shops when he published six OF
his eight books. Since he was nom
dency he has gained such publicity
that any book he turned out was In
demand, and the royalties from his
publications have netted him thous-
ands of dollars. During the times
when his books Were published. the
geographical unnon waged the Bit
terest war in Its history. but Bryan
evidently took no heed OF it, or else
he showed his sympathy for oppo-
nents of the union by giving his work
to non-unton shops
