on June 30, 1909, amounted to the sum
of S45, 757, 918. "a. The cash receipts
from water right charges to June 30,
1909. were: Building charges $780,
BAL. %: operation and mainten ance
charges, $40, 1926. Ss, total, 1870, 667. 10.
Because of the magnitude of the work
and the desirability of making plans
far in advance, it has been found
necessary to make estimates OF the
amounts that will become available
before the actual receipts a be
known. The estimated total receipts
in the fund to June 80, 1909, are $685.
582, 140.6 6 Upon this basis, and est.
mated receipts which will become
available before December 81, 1910,
s5,52S, 050 have been allotted for rec.
lamation purposes to December 81,
1910.
The receipts from all sources do not
give encouragement that the fund will
be sufficiently %replenished to enable an
expeditions completion and extension
of existing projects or to tahe up any
e work. l am not in favor of the
extension of the time of these payments,
as eleven years which the law practi-
cally gives) without interest, in ten
annual installments, ought to permit
any prudent man to meet his payments,
unless the cost of construction is a
greater burden than the lands will
naturally sustain.
In view of the Importance of a speedy
completion of existing projects and
their proper extension, and of the
necessity in 1912 of an adjustment be-
tween the states by which the major
portion of the funds arising from the
sale Of public lands within each state
and territory shall have been expended
as far as practicable within such state
or territory, and in view of the i'm.
portance of making a beneficial use
of waters already appropriated or
capable of appropriation to which
rights may be lost for non-use, l be-
lieve an urgent appeal should be made
to congress to authorize the issuance
of certifca tes of Indebtedness, or of
bonds against the reclamation fund,
to an aggregate of not exceeding $780,
OOO, 900, or so much thereof as may be
needed. These certificates or bonds
should be sold by the treasurer of the
United States from time to time as
may be required by the secretary of
the interior and the proceeds placed
to the credit of the fund. They should
be r~edeemable on call within q period
of not exceeding ten years after issu.

Gibraltar the Second, Fort Ruger,

editor SOGA
IS ARRESTED

Mr.. Soga, editor of the Nippu Jill
and a leader of the Japanese Higher
Wage Association, was arrested late
yesterday afternoon on the charge OF
sending obscene matter through the
United States mails. His examination
before U. S. Commissioner George A.
Davis was set for this afternoon but
has been continued until Wednesday
next.
District Attorney h. w. Breckons
states that the Objectionable matter
printed in the Nippu Jill and mailed
is not of the nature of rlbald abuse of
a journalistic enemy as might be
thought from the fact that Editor Ko-

FIVE WA|MANALO
JAPANESE TO JAIL
LEADERS OF ASSAULT ON LUNA PLEAD GUILTY SEN
TENCED IN POLICE CoURT-NINE INTERPRETED
JARRETT ARE REPRESENTED LGGHTFOoT AND THE
CASES SET FOR NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. QUIET

Five Wamanalo Japanese who as
saulted Susuki on that plantation, on
Monday were this morning in police
court sentenced to terms of imprson-
ment, one for six months, being the
leader, and the other four for five
months each, they all having pleaded
guilty to the charge of assault and
battery.
These five are the men arrested by
Sheriff Jarrett and held by him in the
Office of the Waimanalo plantation
while the mob of laborers shouted
threats around the little shanty, re-
fused to let the sheriff come out with
his prisoners and snatched the pri-
soners from the auto when Jarrett had
loaded them into his car to be brought
to Honolulu Jarrett as told before,
threatened to shoot anyone who at
tempted to force an entrance to the
Office where he held his prisoners and,
while he was surrounded he telephon-
ed to town for reinforcements and
later took his original prisoners to the
city, with several others arrested for
interfering with the police.
Had the five Japanese who assaulted
their luna pleaded not guilty, they
would have been held for the grand
jury and very likely would have been
charged with some greater crime than
assault and battery and probably would
have received sentences for years in
stead Of for months. They retained no
attorney and did not hesitate to plead
guilty. Jarrett had made no mistake.
He had secured the right men. Five
or six months in Jail at hard labor
will possibly allow time for a slight
accumulation of sense on the part
of the leaders who attempted to run
things at Waimanalo to suit them
selves and to try fellow countrymen
who had offended against their outlaw
system of espionage
As for the nine Japanese who were
identified by Jarrett as leaders of the
mob which attempted to overturn his
automobile and who refused to allow
him to take his original five prisoners

ments arrived, they are at present

POSTAL CLERK
CAUGHT STEALING
HARRY HANAkAHL NIGHT Gle HONOLULU PosToFFlcE
ENDEAvHRs TO MAKE A SHORTAGE BY sWGPING POSTAGE
sTAMPs-BREAKs INTO CLERKS CAGE AT NIGHT BUT
BEING WATCHED is CAUGHT IN The ACT

Harry Hanakahi, night clerk in
Honolulu postofice, was caught in the
act of stealing postage stamps last
night. He even committed a form
of burglary of Uncle Sans premises
to get at the booty.
Frank j. Hare, the postofiice ms
pector, had gained reason for holding
Harry in suspicion and so kept watch
on his movements. In the warrant
for Hanakahis arrest sworn to by
Mr.. Hare the clerk is accused in legal
phraseology of stealing postage stamps
of the value of $25. A shortage in
accounts appears to have been behind
the theft.
Yesterday morning Hanakahi, who
as a night clerk handles all sorts OF
postal business, found himself short
twenty-five dollars on postal money or
der accounts. To make this deficiency
good he transferred the amount from
the general postal fund to the money
order fund.
His next concern was to make good
the shortage so created in the postal
moneys. For this purpose he took
the fatal recourse of robbing the post
office in direct manner
asst nipht he hrnka into the oapa

GER, but there are numerous other
charges upon which they may be held.
Attorney Lightfoot appeared for them
when their cases were called in police
court this morning and successfully
asked that the matter go over until
Saturday.
Susuki, the luna who was assaulted,
was today allowed by Sheriff Jarrett to
visit a relative in the city. he having
been held as a witness against his as
sailants. His testimony is also re-
quied in the cases against the nine
Japanese who led the interference with
Jarrett's work at Waimanalo on the
eventful Monday. He will return to
the police station on Saturday morn
ing when the interference cases are
again called
Susuki declares that he was wit
ness to the nine men being among
those surrounding the auto and heard
them making threats against the po-
lice and saw them acting in a man
ner calculated to interfere with the
carrying out of justice.
He is contractor on Waimanalo
and is anxious to get back, in spite
of the fact that his enemies are there
to look after all the property he has
in the world, his cane patch. Sheriff
Jarrett, who expects to visit Wanna.
naIo on sunday or Monday, has pro.
missed to take Susuld back with him
In the meanwhile ten armed police
are guarding Waimanalo and will bt
left there till Jarrett goes down again
or until later.
Reports from Waimanalo are to tn,
effect that the laborers are workinl
steadily, with few exceptions, and tha
there is no sign of immediate trouble

Inspector Hare being on the watch

other of breaking into premises used
for postal purposes.
