ton at the capitol would state
whether this is to be followed by
the sale of the lease of other parcels
in that vicinity, and If, after the
land sales are all disposed Of, the
question of the water privileges Is
to be taken up.
This is very important. Water
controls the land.
At present this paper knows Of no
policy announced for handling the
water that might be developed to
supply the cane and other lands of
Olehena, Kapaa and Anahola. No
one, under such conditions, could be
expected to bid for the land lease in
three hundred acre blocks except the
Makee Sugar Company, or some one
with enough money to start new
and relatively small sugar planta-
ton.
Then, with these cane area leases
bought up, it is reasonable to sup

Land POLICY QUERIES.

- Just what has caused an appar-
emily inspired article to come from
the capitol about Withholding the
correspondence In the so-called Ka-
paa land transaction, the Bulle-
I l n is unable to guess.
II Is and always has been mys-
terry why the Governor has refused
every request made to him by this
paper for the correspondence with
Col. Spalding or his representatives
regarding the so-called Kappa land
deals. And the mystery does not
become any less now that the mat
ter has been brought out once more
by the paper controlled by the at
torney for the Makee Sugar Com
pany interests.
The real point at issue Is that a
splendid tract of very desirable pub
lie land is being handled by the pub
lie officers Of this Territory, and 1t
would appear reasonable that the
public should be given access to all
the letters that have been written.
That seems very reasonable.
In addition to the public lands to
be disposed Of, there are in the same
section some of the most valuable
water privileges In the Territory.
II is fitting and proper that the
Territorial policy in dealing with
this land and those water privileges
should be clearly defined and out
lined In advance. so that the public
with all correspondence at hand
might discuss 1t and fully under
stand one feature Of the Territorial
land policy that will be such an all
important factor in the next cleo
ton, in the Legislature, and possibly
before Congress.
The lease of some three hundred
acres of the Olehena lands, adjoin-
ing Kappa, is to be sold in a short
time at auction.
II would be valuable information
for the public IL the officers author

of congress to direct heads of execu-
tive departments to send 40 the SEN

session was the subject of an extended
speech in the senate today by Sen

absolute power to demand from heads
of departments all information with

them to give reasons for their action
or non-acticn on any matter coming

Senator Lodge questioned the '.ower

on the right of the president to ex-

believe that the president intended to
state in his message to congress that

Real Winter
Hits Manhattan
SOMEWHAT BELATED BUT AL.
MOST BLIzzARDY.
10000 MEN SHOVELING SNOW
Clearing the Streets Began at This
Crowded to Escass the Storm.

New York, Jan. 13.-Real winter,
somewhat belated, but almost bliz-
zardy in it's intensity, arrived in New
York tonight and before the hour of
midnight several inches of snow had
fallen, only to be shifted about by a
cold northwest wind and deposited in
places most calculated to impede the
traffic of the city, pedestrian and other
wise.
Transportation Schedules Confused.
A few inches Of snow on Manhattan
Island always means congested traffic
conditions and a consequent upsetting
of all the transportation schedules,
and tonight's storm was not long in
bringing confusion in this respect. AS
there was no abatement in the snow
fall at a late hour tonight, tomori wv
holds great inconvenience to the busi-
ness-bound throngs and much suffer-
ing to the poor
Homeless Rush for Shelter.
The havens of the homeless were
pushed for room to harbor the appi-
cants for shelter tonight, and the num-
ber of sick and destitute seeking aid
at Bellevue hospital was largely IN
creased by the sudden storm. The big
municipal lodging houses took in an
unusually large number of men, and
women, too, and the needy were given
tickets for food tomorrow morning.

The snow removal contractors had
their first problem of the winter and
ten thousand men were ordered set at
work at o'clock in the morning clear

ing departed therefrom he did not
show any marked signs of WEAKNESS.
The object of his long day in the
saddle, he explained to a representa-

return, was to prove to the critics
who have found fault with the recent
order requiring all army and navy Of
ficers to take a physical test, that if
a president, who is not in training
can ride ninety miles plus in one day
without beings laid up in bed thereby
it should not be too much to ask the
men who are supposed to be in the
best of physical training all the time
to ride ninety miles in three days"
