MY'CAuDLBSS DENIES
DEED MISREPRESENTATION

l.. L. McCandless has filed a repli
cation to the answers of w. r. Cas-
tie, trustee, Rose Williams, Annie
Spalding, Georgiana Williams, Henry
Williams, Edward Williams, and Geor-
giana Wright, defendants to his suit
for accounting.
He admits that Joshua R. Williams
was not in his lifetime seized of any
interest in the lands described in Ro-
yal Patent 762, Land Commission
Award 2042, and that after Williams
death an undivided two-thirds inter
est in said lands was conveyed to
Castle as trustee for decedents heirs,
but he alleges on information and be-
lief that said lands, up to the time that
they were sold to Honolulu Sugar Co.,
were treated by Castle as property
held by him as trustee under the will
of Williams. He admits that the re-
naming one-third interest was owned
by Kaaikaula Williams at her death,
that it descended to her heirs, and
that the interests of Josephine Boyd,
Georgiana Wright, Lydia Chapman,
Joshua Williams, Othello Williams and
Kahalauola Williams were conveyed

NO labor PARADE
FOR 1903; JAP ANESE
MARCH NEXT YEAR
WAGE ASSOCIATION WILL PASS LABOR UNION ON
PLANS AND MAKE DEMONSTRATION 19O-wANT-
SHOW THIS YEAR, BUT CONSPIRACY ARRESTS PRO
sECUTIoN INTERPRETED HEADQUARTERS PLANS

Nothing has been arranged for any
sort of celebration or observance of
Labor Day, this year. Labor Day falls
on Monday, Septemer 6, and through
out other parts of the United States
there will be demonstrations ranging
all the way from the parade of many
thousands to the procession of a few
dozen in small towns, augmented, per-
haps, by the contribution of the fire
brigade and the police department.
In Honolulu there is no sufficient
body Of organized labor to undertake
a procession or any other show of
force, so there will be no marching
through the principal streets of the
city, no beer nor pink lemonade at
the end of the line of marcl and no
speeches concerning the glorious inde-
pendence of labor, if it exists, or the
ever arbitrary.
1t is not, however, so much a mat
ter, of what will not be doing this
year, as what will be doing next year.
An interview this morning with lead
ers of the recent Japanese strike agi-
tation for higher wages reveals the
fact that the organization Of Japan
see 4plantation laborers' also the or
ganization of Japanese in all lines of
labor, all under ope headquarters, as
promised by the Higher Wage Asso-
citation which is now about TO die and
from whose ashes it is promised these
labor organizations will rise. is to be
in a position to throw thousands upon
thousands in the line of march for a
Labor Day parade next yeaf.
1t was hoped by certain members of
the headquarters of the Higher Wage
Association that some sort Of demon
stration might be made this year. The
idea being that since there was to be
no other show of labor forces, since
no others were planning to give any
sort of parade on this holiday, Labor
Day, it would be a grand idea for the
organized Japanese plantation laborers
to get in and march, with bands and
colors and show of force and pomp
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-08-27

Arrests and conspiracy prosecutions,
however, have taken some of the mill
tant enthusiasm out of the leaders of
the movement for higher wages, at
least temporarily, and the stage has
not been reached where the Higher
Wage Association gives it's energy to
the new organization contemplated.
The Higher Wage Association has
not yet made its will, even, though
it has attempted so to do. AS exclu-
sively announced in The Star when
the first move in that direction was
made, it is the intention of the leaders
of the Japanese Higher Wage Associa-
tion to practically reorganize and form
a labor union on the plans of labor
unions that exist in the United States
generally. It is the plan not only
to organize the Japanese plantation
laborers, but to organize the Japanese
workers in all branches of trade, into
separate unions which will all be un-
der one general management. This
takes time and takes a lot of preaching
throughout the islands and means that
nothing, so far, has really been ac-
complished. At least not enough has
been accomplished to effect the death
of the Higher Wage Association and
the birth of the Japanese Labor Union
This however, is expected to be per
fected within the ensuing year and
while there will be nothing of a de-
monstration on this years Labor Day
a year hence may see some eight OF
nine thousand organized Japanese Ia
borers, plantation and otherwise, in
a line of march, organized according
to the mainland American plan and
carrying the American and Japanese
flags at the head of the procession.
''The Higher Wage Association is
not pau yet said an officer Of that
organization to a Star reporter this
morning, "but it will soon be be 6
matter of the past, though in it's place
will rise an organization on American
plans that will represent the interests
of all Japanese laborers Throughout
these islands,"

CHARLES MONTAGUE COOKE IS DEAD
WORK is Held
BACK BY SYSTEM

There promises to be something of a
stir at the meeting of the City and
County Supervisors, for authoritative
rumor has it that Road Supervisor
Wilson wants to know what's what.
For some time there has been a
boiling of ideas as to where and how
the Road Supervisor or Overseer stood
in regard to the appropriations allow
ed his department, and now there
comes the fight to the finish as to
whether or not there is to be safe
and sane disposition of funds or a
system of arbitrary allotment whereby
the feet and hands of the Road Su-
pervisor are tied.
Wilson is not contemplating putting
in his resignation, or anything like
that as far as can be ascertained, but
it is understood that the situation re-
solves itself into the proposition of a
good and useful man, one who knows
his business, being materially handi-
capped through a false idea of economy
on the part o. the BOARD
Wilson, it seems, is allowed $4,000
per month, but unless he spends all
that money during the month it has

to plaintiff by deed of October 21
1899 The plaintiff concludes his re-
plication thus:
THAT he denies that the grantors
named in said deed, or any or either
of them, understood that they were
conveying only their interests in said
lands which they had inherited from
the said Kaaikaula Williams; denies
that he so understood or represented;
denies that said grantors did not in
tend to convey any other interest in
said lands by said deed, and denies
that he participated in any such in
tent.
THAT he denies that it is impossi-
BILE to tell what income has teen real
lied by said w. r. Castle, trustee,
from said sum of $134330 so received
by him as aforesaid: denies that any
settlement made by said w. R. Castle
as executor of said will is conclusive
on the plaintiff in this suit; and de-
nies that it would be against equity
and justice to make said trustee ac-
count to plaintiff for the moneys men
toned in the amended bill of COM
plant herein. And this he is ready
to verify"

is justified in part by Grape upon the

On his return from Japan the lat

his health was permanently impaired,
and he at once began to withdraw from
some of his greater business activities,
transferring the executive responsible
tiles to his sons and others. In Fe-
bruary last ne sustained stroke Of
paralysis from which he rallied to the
extent of being able to take airing IN
an automobile. His left side, however,
remained paralyzed and a week ago
last Monday he was overtaken by a
second shock. From that time he re-
mained prostrated, conscious only at
intervals, at his town residence at
Beretania avenue and Kapiolani street,

mentioned. The end came as a pass
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-08-27

to revert to the general fund, and the
road department is not allowed the
benefit of it.
During a rainy month, when it is
impossible to do any work on the roads
he is not able to spend the entire
$4,000 and so does not get the ad-
vantage of whatever he does not
spend; whereas, inasmuch as he has
to buy machinery, wagons, mules, etc.,
it would be to the convenience of the
road department if he was to save so
much each month from the monthly
allowance to pay off the debt for ma
chinery, etc., he is not permitted to
do this on account of the hard and
fast rule established by the Board Of
Supervisors that he can spend only
$4,000 a month, and unless he spends
it all he is obliged to put the balance
back into the general fund. In this
and other ways is his department tied
so that it cannot do its best work,
and it is reported that at tonight's
meeting there will arise a protest that
will result in Wilson's either being
allowed a decent leeway or his de-
claration that the Supervisors can take
the consequences.
