well adapted there. lived there for
eight years and know that the club
types do well and can see no possible
reason why No. 12S would not make
an excellent yield there. Considering
| that this is only the second year that
this wheat has been grown in any
quantity and that l alone have sold
1000 bushels for seed, gives you an
idea Of what the people here think of
It."

ers printed III the Twice-A- Week
/, Spokesman-Review of Aug. %, 1908.
Mr.. e. B Kegley, who resides 10 miles
west of Pullman. says:
''My Hybrid wheat averaged a
little more than 40 bushels per acre.
My Red Russian averaged % bushels.
The two fields join, the soil is the
same, the gound was cultivated the
same way, and sown at the same
time, the seeder going from one frield
to the other, part of both being plant
ed the same dav. The Hybrid Is
worth from to 4 cents per bushel
more than the Red Russian. With
an income of 40 per cent in the yield
and from 2 to cents additional on
price, further comment seems un-
necessary"
Andy Mael, near Pullman, Wash,
writes: 81 threshed my wheat to-
day. The new variety known as the
No. I23 yielded 19k sacks per acre.
The Forty-fold grown on an adjoin-
ing field and under exactly the same
conditions, yielded Is sacks per acre.

TheO. Stirewalt. Pullman, writes:
Il sowed 40 acres of No 123 wheat
and it was fine in every respect.

variety and the wheat called No l43,
Of which got one sack in the fall OF
1907 l sowed this sack on about
two acres and got 29h sacks of wheat

look at. 1t was very thin on the
ground and | did not expect more
than 20 sacks, but it turned out al
most double what I expected.
think it far ahead Of the Club or
Forty-fold."
Regarding the yield of No. 63, cross
OF Little Club aud Turkey Red. will
say that it was reported in the
Twice-A-Week of August Ii that Mr..
NJ. E. Schreck Of LaCross, Wash
threshed A bushels per acre from IS
acres season. the wheat testing 81
pounds to the bushel. Last year
from 10 acres he realized 40 bushels
per acre. It is claimed that this
variety is adapted to the drier Sec
tions of the country.
So long as the supply lasts any of
these varietiesOf wheat can be secur-
ed from the college at Pullman in rs
bushel lots for $I.O0 per bushel.
Seed can also be secured from farm
ers who are raising it in different
parts of the country. Some of the
farmers are selling seed at 80 cents
per bushel. These wheats look good
to me and would like to see them
tested throughout the country.

ALOHA, Mr.. GARFIELD.

I'VE want Mr.. Garfield to be to
Hawaii what Mr.. Taft Is to the Phil
ippines."
This remark passed by Former Sec
rotary Atkinson epitomizes what Ha-
wall expects OF the Secretary OF the
Interior, and Hawaii has a reputa-
ton for expecting much Of its
friends.
But first of all the people Of the
Territory are unanimous in the hope
that the Secretary will have a most
pleasant tour and get to the bottom
Of all the matters on which he desires
information.
The people Of the Territory are
great petitioners. but they are not
beggars. We believe that our needs
are important and We believe that
when they are all fully understood
by the Executive and Legislative
branches of the Government our re-
quests will be granted.
This has been the experience thus
far. Delays have been the result Of
lack of information. and immediate
action has followed complete
knowledge OF Hawaii's position gain
ed through personal inspection. The
visits Of the Congressional parties
and of Cabinet Secretaries have prov
ed this.
Mr.. Garfield cannot, OF course,
gain the intimate knowledge Of Ha-
wall. by going around its principal
islands In record-breaking time that
Mr.. Taft has Of the Philippines. nor
10 he likely to have that specially
warm feeling that first Governor
would have for section Of the coun.
try where he has helped In working
out great problem.
His already ample stock of infor.
nation. however, will be materially
increased by personal trip through
the country and an opportunity tC
see how the people live and what they
look like, though 1t be but a passing
glimpse.
OF the domestic troubles in the
Territory. the Secretary will probably
hear enough while at his headquar'
tiers In Washington. While here HI
may get a passing encounter with
them, but that will serve only Il
give him taste Of the days work II

GARFIELD AND PUBLIC LANDS.

Opinions on the best method of set
Ting land problems in Hawaii are
more diversified than the industries
Of the Territory, and as mixed as its
population.
Secretary Garfield in his inter-
views given the Coast papers re-
marked that the land administration
Is In the hands of the local authori-
ties. and therefore he will not have
much to do with the intimate detail
Of land affairs In the Territory. As
head Of the Federal land department,
however. we know that he will give
the land question careful thought and
observation.
First Of all, everybody In Hawaii
wants the public lands of the Terri
tory disposed SO that the Territory
shall become most speedily Ameri-
canized.
Some believe that the Americana
zation can best be brought about by
giving homesteaders large areas
which one man cannot hope to cult
vate without the employment of ORR.
entail labor for assistance, but which
with capital and labor he will de.
velop.
Others are convinced that the pub
lilo lands. when devoted to the Amer
fcanization policy should be settled
by homesteaders who will develop
them by their own labor, establish
homes. and become permanent citi-
sens rather than absentee landlords.
The variety of diversified excep-
lions to which the followers of the
two main divisions will give utter
ance are too numerous to mention.
One thing we all know: The land
once alienated from the control of
the people through their Government
rs gone beyond recall. II. in disposing
Nit. the Government hastens the pas
hge of the land into the hands OF
Fge corporations employing gang
bor or into the possession of an
IN people suffering from great
p-hunger. We know that the cause
mericanism Is not best served.
\e Secretary In his travels will
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1908-06-16

probably come in contact with all
phases of the land question. He will
see where the homesteader has start
ed and later sold out. He will see
where the homesteader has gone on
the land to prove up and forthwith
leased his property and drawn down
the income from another's labor. He
will find others who have homestead
ed and remained.
He will see for himself, and apply
ing to his observations the average
measure OF American common sense,
we believe that he will not drift far
from the conclusion that the working
population of any section Of the coun-
try establishes the standards OF the
communities and the future citizen
ship.
If you want a country American
lied you must foster population Of
workers who are eligible to become
American citizens-if you cant get
the American citizens to do the work
themselves.
A large measure of theory does not
change the facts Of history, and the
American ideal Is opposed to large or
small landlords controlling a subject
race.
Hawaii is unanimous on what 1t
needs. How to get 1t, is where the
lines become mixed and the way
blocked.

Editor Event ng Bull tin:
VIII you kindly insert this article In
your paper with a view to directing
your readers and the people of the
Territory to a Just and fair consider
alton of Local Option or any liquor
question that may come before the
voters at the coming election.
Although l am temporarily absent
from the Territory my heart and
substance is with you, and l for ono
would like to see the whole liquor
question let alone for once in the
history Of Hawaiian legislative ses-
sions.
Forget 1t for two years.

Commissioners who have full freedom

Public opinion is tickle; things are
done under impulse that we would
have undone under more sober reflec-
ton.
Towns have been voted dry in one
year only to be thrown wide open In
a short time afterwards.
II will not be fair, Just, or good
business principles to subject those
who deal in liquor to the tickle inilu-
ence of politics at every election; II
is equally unfair and unjust to those
who desire to drink II.

Be Subject OF Discussion
Today

The boosters" of the California Pro-
motion committee, $50 strong. left for
Los Angeles yesterday in a gaily dec
Grated special train TO attend the tenth
semiannual meeting of the counties
committee which will be held today.
The program arranged for today in
cludes an important discussion, The
Tourist in California" and those in
charge of the meeting say that many
new and novel features will be dis
cussed and that the east will be made
to appreciate the manifold advantage
of the state. 1t is also the intention
of the committee to formulate a plan
by which the visitor may see the state
from the standpoint of an investor, as
nowhere in the union is there today a
better opportunity for the man who de-
sires to invest his money than in Cali
fornia. The men who have charge of
the promotion work have been care
fully compiling statistics, which Will
be reduced to concrete form and placed
in the hands of the visitor.
The party was in charge of Harry
Welch, chairman of the reception COM
mittee, and the arrangements were car
ried through without a single delay or

COURT RESTRA|NS
DUDLEY AND MEIGGS
Judge Sturtevant Checks Part=
ners in the Carisa Chem
ical Company
Defendants VIII Be Called Upon
to Explain Matters Com
corning Stock

The alleged high handed and arbi-
trary management of the Carisa chem
ica1 company by E. c.. Dudley and f.
M. Meiggs was effectuaIly checked yes
terday by Judge Sturtevant in signing
the restraining order applied for by the
minority share holders in the name of
/. Norman Harvey. That order not
only prevents the partners from pay
Ing themselves out of the treasury of
the company or,Hoting with the shares
of stock they hold until the ownership
of Sthe shares is proven, but forbids
them from using the funds of the com
pany to defend the suit brought against
them and their directory by the minor
ity stock holders.
The auditing committee, which has
been investigating the books of the
corporation, will report its findings
at the meeting which will be held in
the offices of the company in the Ma
rine building on November IS, and on
the Goth Meiggs and Dudley will be re-
quired to explain the expenditure of
$4,000 since last year, 1t is probable
that when this probing has been con-
cIuded criminal charges will be pre-
ferred against the pair.
They will be asked regarding the
details of the expenditure of $4,000 in
a plant for the production of caustic
soda, which has not yielded a pound
of the product; as to whom the 67O,-
000 shares of the company's stock have
been issued, and as TO why the names
of the buyers were not written on the
stubs of the stock book according to
the rules of the corporation. They will
also be required to tell how they came
into the possession of the controlling
interest of the company and what be-
came of the money which these shares
represent.
Granting that the minority stock
holders who are bringing the suit are
willing to ascribe the Irregularities in
the book keeping to careless manage
ment. Dudley and Meiggs will be
Obliged to produce cash or show an
accounting for the cash spent since
the meeting last year Failing to make
this showing, they will be open TO
charges Of fraud and embeZzlement.
