LAND SEEKER
FINDS NONE

In his current weekly letter to the
Hawaii Promotion Committee, Acting
Secretary w. j. Cooper quotes a letter
from A. F. Knudsen, commissioner to
the Seattle exposition, in which the
latter suggests the necessity for liter
ature giving more definite information
for land-seekers than anything the
committee has issued.
Mr.. Cooper says the difficulty is not
new but the trouble is in giving the
definite information. He gives the
following instance of an inquirer for
land coming here and going away
without being satisfied:
"A young man just graduated from
the University of Wisconsin, came
down by the last Alameda, with $4,000
to invest in land. He went back to
the coast by the same vessel sailing
yesterday. l asked him before he left
to tell me just what impressions he had
gained in his brief visit. He replied
in substance as follows:
" 1 have been unable to see any
prospect whatever Of buying land. |
did find that 1 might lease land, put
that doesn't appeal to me at all. I
saw DR.. Wilcox, of the Experiment Sta
ton, but he wasn't able to suggest
much chance. 1 don't see how you ex-
pect to get farmers here if you cant
sell them land, for 1 don't believe you
will get many Americans who will take
kindly to leasing proposition. in
quired about your public lands, but
could get no definite idea about when
l could even get chance at any of
that. Besides don't think I'd care
for a homestead proposition. l want
to buy from private owners. My faith
er told me to go ahead and he would
back me if l thought things looked
all right, but I think can do a good
deal better ON the mainland.''

SAM JOHNSON
ROWS TO SIBERIA

Col. Sam Johnson, superintendent
for the Hawaii Mahogany Co., was
scheduled to meet the Siberia outside
this morning to act as interpreter for
Jack Atkinson's 200 Russians
He got there, but not without great
difficulty. He missed the customs
launch and borrow ed lighthouse row
boat and then looked for a man to
row 1t. He hit upon the Japanese
cook Of the Young Brothers and then,
when in the channel, found the Jap
could not row. Of came Sans coat
and he covered the mile and a half
between shore and ship in fine time
the pity being that there was none to
hold a watch and catch what must
have been a record. Sam kicked when
he reached the launch, which was
waiting alongside the Siberia until its
passengers were permitted to board
the liner, because there was no soap
soft water and towels for him to wash
his hands.
Jack Atkinson leaned over the ships
rail and sang out good morning in
Russian, or sneezed, Sam couldn't tell
which,

SIBERIA SAILS

P. M. S. S. Siberia, arriving at the

sengers. She leaves 1900 tons Of
freight here and lands 211 Russians

There were eight passengers for
Honolulu and about so going through
to San Francisco in the cabin.
Among the through passengers are

MOONLIGHT DANCE.

The moon will be full Saturday night,
October 80, and there is to be dance
at Haleiwa that SHOULD draw crowds of
people to that comfortable hosiery.
The music will be the best there is
on the island and the refreshments
need no mention here. Those VINO go
down to Haleiwa are always pleased
with that part of the entertainment.
The road is in splendid condition TOR
motoring and those who do not mote
should go down on the train and stay
over Sunday. The recreation will do
anyone good.

CAN BRING
10000 RUSSIANS
Continued from Page one)

Russians to come They were more
than anxious. Thus was selection
made easy, for there were so many to
pick from. We brought the cream Of
the lot as far as I was able to observe.
And there are thousands and thou
sands more who will willingly come if
we want them, and think this lot will
prove that we want them.
EXAMINED 300 FAMILIES.
II examined three hundred families
and out of that number brought forty
eight families. There are one hundred
and three men and women, grown, and
one hundred and eight children, and of
the children there are 67 under twelve
years of age. Two children were born
on the trip. AS an indication of how
anxious they were to come here: One
man walked nearly two hundred miles
to make application and then tele-
graphed his wife and babies to hurry
on by train. They were just in time.
There is one family numbering fourteen
members and there are but two old
men in the lot.
NOT QUESTION OF WAGES.
1T was not a question of wages with
them. When we tried to tell them
what wages they would be paid in these
island, their minds apparently did not
grasp the significance of the increase
over what they could make in their
own country under present conditions,
but rather were they anxious to be as
sured OF just one thing and that was
whether they could be certain Of
enough work all the time to keep them
in food. They wanted "plenty of
food" the year round without having
to worry about being unable to get
work. In their districts the Chinese
wont and the Russians cannot give
these people titles to farm land and
often they have nothing to live on.
"And when they work frequently the
money they earn does not amount to
