HAWAII HAS ITS .
POLITICAL TROUBLES TOO.
There the Race Question and Land
Controversies Loom Up Large
on the Horizon.

Honolulu, Dec 2S.-Delegate to
Congress Kalanianaole. known as
Prince Cupid who recently anuounc-
ed himself a candidate for reelection,
has caused political sensation
throughout the territory by vigorous
attack upon Governor Frear. charging
the governor with not acting in good
faith with regard to the proposed
homesteading of public lands. In his
first interviews upon the subject. the
delegate to Congress said that the
governor had lied" about land poll
cies and intentions. Later he with
drew this expression. but announced
himself as at war with the territorial
executive on account Of failure to open
public lands.
The delegates attack came as a
complete surprise TO the Republican
leaders, Governor Frear had just left
for Washington to urge before Con
gress a new land bill, which had been
prepared with KalanianaoIes assist
oIN' anu uudiilliicuSlN Jlihcl o'u ~ INK
legislature of Hawaii i'll special ses-
sion.
Prince Kalanianaole said further
that the administration of the public
lands in Hawaii had not been for the
benefit of the people.
The sugar plantations can get
anything they want from Frear,' he
said, "but the people do not get any
chance. Governor Frear lied to the
people, and he lied to me, and made
ME lie to the people in my promises. ="
After a conference with Acting
Governor f. A. Mott-Smith, Kalanian-
aole withdrew these statements, but
returned to the attack next day in a
written public statement.
"A revolution is going on in the
minds of the Hawaiian people on this
question of public lands" he said,
"and We must do something to get the
land out among the people"
Kalanianaole is thought by some to
have aspirations to become governor
himself, in view of rumors of Frears
being disposed to resign and return to
the bench. as it is believed here that
President Taft would be much inclin-
ed to appoint a Hawaiian.

Tobacco Growers Sign Pledges to

Louisville, KY, Feb. 1S.-Pledges
secured from tobacco growers in the
Burley districts of Kentucky, Indi-

for ratification in a meeting of
joint committee of tobacco associa-

Tobacco growers in Kentucky. In

Union Tobacco society, as now con-

tective association, which dominates
the dark tobacco market. and the
Burley Tobacco society which DOM
mates the Burley market. are com.

sets of buyers, it is stated that the
present Union Tobacco society does
not represent a coalition between
them in the new union organization.
