KEANAE lands
OPENED Soon
Four Hundred Acres Will
Be Returned By
Baldwin

Surveyor Sam Kanakanui has re-
turned from Keanac, where he has
been re-surveying the old kuleanas
which have been under dispute there
for some time. According to the old
plats of one piece of ground which
is claimed by the natives under their
grants. there should be a ditch for
one line and gulch for one of tho
others, as Identification marks.
These never have been there, accord
ing to Kanakanui, ut least not for
the last fifty years, and 1t Is his Opiif-
ion that there is no kuleana there,
but that II is located on the other
side of Naeole.
There Is a l-2-aCre tract at Nae
ole which has also been under dis
pute. Bobby Boyd recently was sup
posed to have surveyed this, but Ka-
nakanui claims that his lines were
most grossly incorrect.
II. p. Baldwin has signified his in
tention of returning about 400 acres
of Government land which he has
had under lease. and this will be
surveyed and opened to homestead
ers. The land, 1T is claimed is not
good for much other than the rubber
industry. Each homesteader will be
allowed 40 or so acres.
Sam Kanakanui, as well as several
other of the Government surveying
force here, is not bit bashful about
expressing his opinion about the
work done by Boyd at Keanae.

AICHERlEY CROWD
ROASTS p|NKHAM
Disappointed WalIaCherS
Make Their Last
Stand

A mass meeting OF Hawaiians was
held at Aala Park last Saturday
evening with Fred. X. BecklGy as
chairman. Seated on the band stand
were Mrs Mary Atcherley, Sam Ka-
loa, John Sheldon and KewalO. There
was no music, but there were must
cal instruments lying on the floor.
The audience was not very large,
there being only about three hum
dred people present.
Beckley in his speech predicted
the downfall of President Pinkham
Of the Board of Health. He said that
Pinkham was not working for the
betterment of the people at Kaiau-
papa, that be had spent the money Of
the people carelessly and refused TO
carry out the intention of the Lcgis-
lature when 1t appropriated funds
for the home for non-leprOus male
children of leper parents Accord
ing to Act 1856 of the Session Laws
Of 1907, an appropriation of sl5,vou
was set apart for that purpose, but
Pinllham had not carried out the liz
| tent of the lawmakers. lie Criti-
| cized Pinkham for causing to be
erected a building at cost Of $4,000
at the Kaiihi receiving station with
a view to allowing Wailach to use
II in his treatment of the lcpers from
Molokai.
"Pinkham knew very we'll" said
Beckley, that he did not want Wal
ZACH to effect his cure on the lepers;
but fearing the so-called leaders OF
/ the Hawaiians, he erected this build
ing to cool them down. Pinkham, rs
President of the Board of Health, had
not tried or caused to be tried, the
ment. His administration has been
a total failure"
Sam Kaloa said that Pinkham was
an earnest worker when, It came tC
spending money for the planters and
business men. in the matter Of kill.
ing rats, Pinkham was very active
spending money toward purchasing
necessary drugs and traps to catct
the rats. But when It came TO
most important question, that of thu
health of human beings. Pinkhan
was stubborn and would not listel
to suggestions. The iepers" at IN
settlement had been there for man,
years and no effort has been made u
cure them. rfa
: "Pinkham should not remail
there" said Kaloa. Put anothe
man in his place so that some goo
may he accomplished towards re
, lieving the sorrow of those poor pea
pie in the settlement"
Mrs. Mary AtCherley was the las
speaker. Fred. Beckley read the res
olution which was adopted by tn
meeting.
The substance of the resolution
a violent attack on Pinkham, cor
demning him as political trickste
and as too unreliable a man to b
President of the Board of Health b,
cause of his failure to provide a hon
for the sons of leprous parents.
stated that he deceived the Hawai-
an people in the Wallach matte
that he had gone back on his prom
Uses to the representatives of Il
people in the last Legislature, an
lastly that his actions ms the Pres
. dent of the Board OF Health ha'
been suspicious and unreliable.

CHANCTNG sTREET NAMES.

, Attention has previously been called
to the fact that the city fathers of
Chicago are having troubles of their
own which are quite as extensive as
are those of the city councilmen of
Topeka on the subject of changing the
names of streets. The Chicago Record
Herald printed an editorial recently on
this vexed question which is quite as
pertinent to the situation in this city
as it is in Chicago, and so it is re-
printed as follows:
''The council committee on street
nomenclature is forced to take arms
against a sea of troubles. Day after
day as it proceeds with it's work of
unifying and simplifying it meets with
angry protests. The good old name
is not only good enough but endeared
by association. All the confusion that
has been caused by mixed names and
the duplication of names is as nothing
by comparison with the confusion of q
change. Such is the severe local
opinion and it has the same force in
every locality.
''It is manifest that if it were to
control the committee could accom-
plish nothing. Once 1t adopted a
fulness would be destroyed by its own
precedents. We do not say that its
judgment should never be questioned
or that it should never consent to a
review, but it must have a well con-
sidered plan and follow it out.
''The local exigencies may most of
them be summed up as a present per-
sonal convenience. That certainly Is
of vastly less Importance than the es-
tablishment of a rational system that
shall bring general relief. Every one
will be benefited by the change in the
long run. Because of it the resident
of the city will find his way about
much easier; it will help the postal
authorit les, the street car conductors,
all visitors. The confusion that it may
confusion that it will dispel Is a great
public nuisance.
''The committee should act with
caution and intelligence, but having
once made a sound decision it should
s. and to its guns. Otherwise it might
as we'll disband at once It's labors
would be futile and hopeless"

THE RAu,ROAD MACS

That the plates from which the maps
of the railroad systems of the United
States have been printed will have con-
siderable alterations made in them
| during the next few years and that in
| many instances entirely new sets will
| have to be engraved is an important
fact to which attention is called in the
valued weekly financial review from j.
S. Bache & Co. prominent bankers of
New York city. This fact is emphasized
by the absorption of the Colorado &
Southern line by the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy during the past week,
thus transferring it to the great Hill
system. The Colorado & Southern will
need several hundred miles of new
building to make it a complete link to
the south,
With this new road the Hill system
now has total mileage of 24,144 miles.
1The net amount of stock In round num-
bers is s617. .O0O. 900. with bonds of s515.-
100000 The gross earnings in 1907-S
amounted to 100000, with gross in
come approximating $225, 100000. The
net income of this system last year was
$4,000, 900 with charges of $22,000,0 900,
the fixed charges thus amounting to
less than, 80 per cent Of the total net
income.
The increased difficulty of smaller
roads in making money under the pro-
hibftion of rate cutting, says Bache &
Co. is an argument in favor of the alb
sorption of these shorter lines by the
great trunk railroads. and this Is now
going On in all parts of the country.
When all is completed it will be found
that the Hartman system, the Hill
system and the st. Paul each has Its
own line to the Gulf. In fact much OF
the work of harmonious division to-
wards this end has already been ac-
complished.
All of this goes to show that while
gigantic railroad consultations were
given a black eye by the supreme court
of the United States in the Northern
Securities case there is way yet open
to the railroad magnates of seemingly
unlimited means for increasing their
systems with existing railroad proper
ties. They now merely have to bide
their time until they are financially
able to absorb outright through pur-
chase the smaller railroad companies
instead of assuming control of a num-
Der of them at once through the scheme
of consolidation which was declared
to be unlawful in the famous Northern
Securities case.

tune. II it should fall through the
loss will be practically nothing.
Mr.. Moore is of the opinion that
okra can be used in the manufacture
of paper as easily as wood In both
cases the material must be reduced to
a pulp at the paper factory. The
question is can okra be grown cheap
enough to make it a successful COM
petitor with wood?
There is still another step lacking
in the solution of the problem, and
that is a machine that will separate
the okra fiber from the stalk. Mr..
Moore has now a machine in his pos
session that Re thinks will do this
work, but before he goes any deeper
into the experiment he will send the
chaff to Virginia and await results. In
that state another step in the expert
ment will be taken. If okra is found
to be available and can be grown at a
reasonable low cost, Mr.. Moore in
tends to push it forward.
At present paper, especially paper
used in the printing of dailies, costs a
great deal, and almost twice the price
of not many years ago. Now, if okra
can be raised cheaply and will prove
a good substitute, there may be for
tunes in the manufacture of okra pa

New Prune for the Navy.

A new prune, which is served with
a sweet sirup, like molasses, has been
sent to the various ships in the navy
to be tested by The men, on the lines
of the plan similar to the great tobacco
chewing contest, which was resorted
to in order to find out what brand of
to bacco the majority of the men in tn g
navy preferred. According to Captain
Huey and DR.. Won Wadekind, of the
battleship Alabama, this newest prune
is a wonder.
This new prune is a compressed af-
fair. The final tests are now being
made in the temperate zones, and as
soon as these tests are concluded some
ship on duty to the tropical zone will
receive a supply in order to test it's
staying quality in extremely hot cli-
mates.
At the present time the prune tests
are being made on the battleships New
Hampshire, idaho, Mississippi and Ala
Guantanamo, Cuba, and the report
from Cuba is that the new prune is
good hot or cold, in the day or at night
and in any and all kinds of weather.
A barrel of the prunes will be sent
to Port Said, where they will be
taken on board the battleships of Ad-
miral Sperry's fleet when they touch
at that port. Another barrel will be
sent to the armored cruisers under Ad-
niral Swinburne, now on the way to
San Francisco. and a large consign-
ment TO the Philippines for test at
the naval station at Cavite.

KANSAS COMMENT
WHY is A NEwsPAPERMAN? !?

This tenacity with which newspaper
men cling to their profession through
thick and thin is almost proverb1al.
1t is not a money making profession,
| any more than is that of preaching the
| gospel or teaching in the schools. 1t
rarely yields more than a comfortable
income, and in most cases not more
! than a living. Yet men love 1t, cling
to it, and come back to it from what
soever lure may have led them-tem-
porarily-into other fields.
A newspaper man, as rule, IS

all the foibles and weaknesses of hu-
manity. 1t lifts him above the petty
strifes and chickering's around him; 1t
frees his mind from all ill Will and
hate. The things which stir other men
to bursts of passion affect him not. He
looks down upon as he would upon the
petty quarrels of children on the play

straightway upon the shoals. And he
likes the job.

THE PRESIDENTIAL SALARY.
There is no question of economy or
extravaganza in the proposal TO pay
the president a salary of 100000 q
year, though the congress is very apt
to seize upon the occasion to make a
stand for Safeguarding the people
and the peoples treasury, and Kill
the bill that proposes the increase
The issue rests entirely upon the leg
itimate expense accounts or the presl-
dents office. If the present pay inn
poses hardships after the responsible
tiles of being president are met, and II
the presidents are retired as poor or
poorer than when they went IN, then
the increase is seriously needed. Ine
grant of the increase will not affect
fhe national expense account one way
or the other A much more legitimate
saving may easily be made in hun
dred ways The nation expects TO pay
it's presidents enough. When the fair
ness Of the proposition IL estabEshed.
there is no room for argument for
saving the money; the country does
MT have to save the money that way.
