trent Accuses Commissioner
of Inspiring False
Accusations.
DOESN'T LIKE CRITICISM
KaWalloalele Considered bv
Land Board-Kapaa Is
Postponed.

4 bitter attack was made on Land
Commissioner Campbell and his Office
last night at meeting Of the advisory
land board by Richard H. Trent, one Of
the members of the board. who took it
upon himself to roast Mr.. Campbell.
Josh Tucker, The Advertiser and any
body else that he considered had crit
eize his actions and his attitude as a
member of the board.
NJ. Campbell MET the attack in a
most effective way: he simply ignored
it and consequently Trent effort fell
rather fiat. There was nothing to be
done and the board did It. All Trent
secured was the passage Of his own mo-
ton to have his explanation and a re-
cent article in The Advertiser spread
upon the minutes of the board.
Trent 5 attack on Campbell was on
the assumption that certain articles ap-
pearing in The Advertiser during the
past few days in regard to public lands,
the actions of the land board and the
political attitude of certain of the com
missioners were inspired by Marston
! Campbell and his deputies. He stated
| that he has been accused Of doing poll

hurt Mr.. Trent s feelings was the story
in The Advertiser Of Friday. September

| regard TO the KawaiI0alele lands, and

then asked that it be spread upon the
minutes. The board consented.

il was finally decided to take little

the natives who have applied for the
demonstrating of the same. Campbell
explained that it would be utterly abb

eight acres of sand, and it was suggest

Federal Authority Over
Natural Resources.
FIGHT FOR STATE POWER
Pinchot Declines the Presidency
-Heney Wins Applause
RoOseveIt'S Idea.

ST. PAUL. September 9.-The con-
servation congress has adopted a plat
form declaring emphatically for the
control of ali natural resources of the
nation by the federal government, and
this in the face Of a strong movement
for control by States of the natural
resources within each State.
The fight for State control was led
energetically by Short, of Fresno, who
was most vigorously attacked by Pardee
who delivered a speech supporting the
complete control of all national natural
resources by the United States govern
ment as best fulfilling the idea of effec
tive conservation as originally outlined
by ex-President Roosevelt.
Heney also spoke for federal manage
ment Of this great scheme, receiving
an ovation upon the completion of his
telling address.
Henry Wallace of Des Moines was
elected president of the congress, Pin
chot having declined.
The congress has adjourned.

Paragraph 3 Of section S37 of the

for the carriage of mails, parcels and
goods as they may deem necessary
1.-The law on this subject seems very
clear said Manager Ballentyne of the
rapid transit Yesterday. ''Insofar as
the carriage OF passengers is concerned
the law is mandatory, but IN regard to
freight it is optional with the company.
We can transport freight or not, as we
deem advisable We carry freight for
eur own purposes, for the purpose Of
the system. and for the city govern
ment. and for the United States govern

contract We do not solicit freight and
only transport it under contract made
in competition with the bids of drav in

passenger traffic and is never permitted
to interfere with the regular schedules
Of passenger cars.
The rapid transit company has in the
last two years or so carried an I'M
mense amount of material for the Uni
ted States government. Until lately il
ran milk car. the service of which
may soon be resumed.
Ashford, some years ago. sued the
rapid transit for damages because

FIFTH DISTRICT
AGAINST LANE
Caucus Last Night Turned Out
Very Disastrous|y for His
Chance at Convention,

Up until nine O'Clock last night the
fifth district generally was for Lane.
This morning it is Enthusiastically for
Hustace for mayor Of Honolulu and the
switch came at a caucus at which were
present representatives from the dele
cations Of the ninth. tenth, eleventh.
twelfth and thirteenth precincts. At
that caucus, so it was declared late last
night, it was discovered that Lane was
giving the delegates the double cross
in the matter of his support OF a can
didate for sheriff.
At the caucus, in the course of
events, the question of Parker versus
Cox came up. Up spoke one delegate
to the effect that he thought all the
Lane men would naturally support Par
ker. because Lane did. The other dele
gates, in chorus, told him he was crazy.
that Lane was an out and out Cox man.
This led to disclosure of the fact
that Lane was a Cox man in a Cox pre-
cinct and a Parker man IN a Parker
precinct. AS one after another of the
delegates unbosomed himself there was
growing Indignation. concluding in a
unanimous vote that all the delegates
and the delegates they represented
would vote against Lane in d body at
the convention.
A prominent politician. one who had
attended the meeting last night, stated
in The Advertiser office after the affair
had concluded: Put it in the paper
in the morning that Lane : a dead
one in the fifth.

DAUGHTER SEES HER
MOTHER DROWN
Mail Special to The Advertiser.)

KIPAHULU, Maui, September s.
Mrs. Eddie Kapo, while fishing from
the rocks near the wharf here on the
morning of Saturday last, was washed
away by heavy breaker and drowned.
Her eight -year-old daughter was with
her at the time and ran for assistance
to group of people some distance
away. When the anxious friends re-
turned to render assistance there was
nothing left for them to do but recover
a badly bruised body. Mrs. Kapo was
heavily dressed and it is thought that
this fact had much to do with her
being unable to struggle ashore, though
it is quite likely that she was stunned
by being washed against the rocks
while endeavoriug to regain land.
