BONDS ARE
NO GOOD
RICHARDSON DECISION MAKES
DIFFICULTY FOR ALL HEADS
OF DEPARTMENTS

The decision of the Supreme Court
in the matter of the bond Of E. Vivian
Richardson, a defauting clerk of the
Water Works Department, by which 1t
was held that the Territory cannot
collect on the bond of an employe of
department, provision for which en-
ploye is not specified and his duties
outlined by statute, is causing some
Encouragement in the methods of hand
ling public funds in a number of Off
ces of the Territory. In speaking OF
the matter this morning the head Of
one department said:
"By the decision there is absolutely
no way by which the head of a de-
partment may be protected from dis
honesty of his clerks, 1t makes futile
the bonding of such clerks either by
the Territory, or personally by the
head of the department, for in the lat
ter case the employe would not be
handling funds Of the man having him
bonded, and public defalcation could
not be restored Nothing can be done
until the next legislature when the
duties of all clerks who have been Civ
en- the handling Of money can be de-
fined, and their positions recognized
by law, thus making their bond valid
In the meantime all the departments
are placing the handling Of moneys in
as few hands as possible, and a system
of daily checking and depositing

SMALL
HOLDINGS
GOVERNOR FREAR FAVORS CIV
ING SETTLERS SMALL TRACTS
OF FARMING LAND.

Governor Frear this morning stated
that he has been giving considerable
thought TO the problem of securing
Americans as immigrants to develop
the agricultural lands Of the Territory.
The Governor believes that the land
laws as they stand at present are fairly
well adapted for taking of American
farmers who want to take up land.
although they are lacking in many re-
spects. In the matter OF quantity OF
land which the law allows a settler to
purchase the Governor believes, that
if anything, it is too liberal. One hun
dred acres of frst-class agricultural
land, he thinks, would be a good many
times more tnan one family could uti-
lie without employing labor, whicn
in all probabilry, would be Orientals.
with the result that the settlers" If
successful, would soon be but busi-
ness men living in the towns and hlr-
ing all their work done by as cheap a
class Of labor as could be secured. The
! Governor favors a system Of smaller
holdings which can give a family a
comfortable livelihood on their own
personal eXertions, and who will not
to any large extent, be employers OF
other labor than they themselves can
/ supply.

Spreckels steamers are now about to

Honolulu altogether in the Australian
