KAPAA LAND DEAL.

For two weeks or more officers OF
the Territorial government have been
reconsidering the Kapaa land ques-
ton, seeking to reachf an under
standing with the Makee Sugar Com
pany representatives that will en-
able the Territory to secure n prop
er income from the Kapaa and ad-
joining lands, without sacrificing
public interests.
For two weeks the. details of these
transactions have been kept almost
as quiet as the affairs of an ordi-
nary secret society, in so far as the
officers of the Territory have inten-
tionally given the public any infor-
nation as to what they are trying
to do. II the present effort to reach
conclusion fails, 1t will probably
be on account of the lack of conn
dence aroused in the public mind by
the methods adopted by the Terri
torial officers. Why they persist in
what appeal to the public as dark
lantern methods Is more than can
be easily understood, especially at Il
time when the near approach of the
amendment of the Organic Act Is
certain to stir up the suggestion OF
undue haste.
However, there Is no doubt that
the Kappa problem should have been
settled long ago, and the situation Is
now such that little remains but to
publish the result of the secret con-
ferences, The scheme has been prac-
tically decided upon.
The great point at issue for the
people in the so-called Kappa land
deal is the disposition of the water
, rights. Control of the land goes
with the water. II makes mighty
little difference how much land OF
y the upper levels or the lower levels
may be reserved for homesteaders;
. If II does not have an ample supply
of water guaranteed us long as water
runs in the district, the fate of the
homesteader may be readily forecast
! For this reason, the eventual ut
terance of the Territory's officers In
explanation of what has been done
will be awaited with much interest

of us who believe that the whole

Another thing which | believe
was entirely wrong was the &c
tion OF the council in opening and
considering those bids behind
closed doors after excluding from
the hall everyone present but
themselves and Mr.. Bullock, the
engineer.
"AS to the maturity of the bonds
believe the majority of taxpay-
crs would have favored the plan
of retiring the bonds at a much
shorter period instead of at the
end of thirty years as provided
by the resolution. There's no
sense in the city obligating itself
to pay interest on $4,000 for a
period of thirty years, and at the
same time allowing a sinking
fund to remain in the bank at a
rate of interest less than the rate
paid on the bonds"
