ENTIRE PUBLIC
DOMAIN WANTED
Applications Already In for All
Government Land for
demonstrating.

"Almost every acre of government
land in Hawaii has already been applied
for by homesteaders, said Land Com
missioner Campbell yesterday after
noon. "We have applications enough
in to keep the survey Office buy for
more than a year, and it will be only
short time until we shall have the
surveyors tied up for more than five
years"
But Mr.. Campbell is inclined to dis
| credit the good faith and authenticity
of many of the applications. 1t ap-
pears that there is a general misun-
derstanding among many of those who
want to take up homesteads. A large
proportion of .aea2 apparently think
! that all government land, either I'M
| occupied or under lease, is at present
| susceptible to homesteading, whereas
the truth is that government land under
lease may be applied for, withdrawn
and homesteaded only if the lease con
tains the right Of withdrawal clause.
For instance. Mr.. Campbell says that
!
| the land of the WaimanaIo plantation
Waimanalo is all government lease, but
the lease is one of the old order and
| does not contain the right of with
! drawal clause Consequently the land
may not be homesteaded until after the
| expiration of the life of the lease,
which will be in 1918. But, Mr.. Camp
bell says, the indications are that when
the lease expires, all the land of Wal
manalo plantation will be demanded for
homesteads. This will be the end of
| the plantation, unless the management
agrees with the homesteaders to plant
cane on contract and sell it to the
central mill.
This same condition prevails in many
other localities, and it appears that the
future of the sugar industry in Hawaii
will be built along the lines of con-
tract cane planting.
Many of the applicants for the with
drawal, surveying. subdivision and
hOmesteading of government land seem
not to understand that in making their
| applications they must file with the
land agent atfidavits showing that they
are entitled under the law TO take up
homestead land. a large proportion
of those who have already applied have
neglected this precaution, and this
necessarily holds back the homestead
ing of the public domain.
Mr.. Campbell says that if it were
not for this provision of the land laws
men like Alfonso Of HiIo, who has al.
| ready taken up five homesteads, might
apply for and get another, thus multi
tying the intent of the land law amend
! mputS.

FREAR WILL VOTE
FOR PROHIBITION
Effective Answers to Liquor
Organs Statement as to
His Position.

- expect to vote for prohibition on
July &c. said Governor W, F. Frear
yesterday afternoon.
Such is the Governor S answer to the
story published yesterday afternoon, in
which the organ of the liquor dealers
tries to inslnuate to make it appear
that the Governor is opposed to pro-
ambition
Governor Frear, it is true, is no radi-
CAL Perhaps, if it had been left to
him, congress would never have passed
| the question back to the Territory. The
Governor stated yesterday that he knew
very well that there is a question of
personal liberty involved. But he let
! it be distinctly understood that where
! the liberty of the individual is opposed
to the best interests of the community,
| the individual must stand aside.
The Governor stated that he was in
! favor Of whatever was most likely to be
| for the best interests of all. - under
! stand perfectly WE'LL he said, THAT
there are many persons who can use
! liquor in moderation and without any
great injury to themselves. But there
are many more who can not, and what
we must do is to protect the majority.
So | expect to vote for prohibition.'
The Governor during his absence Wis
tied Washington, but he was there only
a short time, and he had little to say
! after his return yesterday as to what
he found or did there.
The Governor found upon his return
that a clean sweep of things had been
made during his absence. On his desk,
| otherwise bare, he found a large whisk
broom, tied at the top with huge Grim
son ribbon and at the bottom with a
tiny bit of baby blue ribbon. On a
card tackled to the broom were various
insulting remarks having to do with
Yale s one small baseball victory over
Harvard and Harvard's several vlcto-
ries in other lines over Yale. Incl
dentally, Secretary Mott Smith took to
the tall timbers soon after the Gov
ernor s return.
Asked as to the possibilities for Sec
rotary Mott Smith as a candidate for
delegate to congress, Governor Erear
said that he would be extremely re-
luctant to lose Mr. Mott-Smith, but that
if a change were demanded no better
man than Mr.. Mott Smith could pos
siblv be found for delegate.
The Governor said that Secretary Bal
Iinger hopes to visit Hawaii this sum
tmer, bringing with him Mrs. Ballinger

HAWAII LIGHTHOUSE
DIVISION, HONOLULU
MADE HEADQUARTERS

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Three new
lighthouse districts were created yes
terday for Hawaii and Porto Rico. The
action of the federal authorities was
IN response to demands for better
marine facilities
The creation of the new districts
means that Hawaii will be a lighthouse
division, and that the Territory will
have an inspector with headquarters
at Honolulu.
Hitherto the lighthouses on the Is
lands have been under control of the
California inspector. The building of
the new lighthouses will entail an ex-
pen7iture Of about 100000. though the
exact cost can not be ascertained until
engineers prepare the plans.

We are ont for the trade. and that

said General Manager R. P. Schwerin
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
Yesterday. Mr. Schwerin added, how
ever. that bond issue would have to

new liner could be authorized
As to the present agreement between
the Pacific Mail and Toyo Kisen Kaisha
companies. Mr. Schwerin said that could
be abrogated by either company on
ninety days notice Whether a ninety
days notice would be given by either
company was problematical, but the
tone Of Mr.. Schwerin's talk on the
subject was convincing in that he be-
Iieved the japanese company had this
under consideration. Mr. Schwerin
added also that the Pacific Mail COM
pany had fostered the japanese com
pany and had given it the opportunity
to become a big factor in the steam
ship carrying trade, both for passengers
and cargo, and it now felt that it could
cut loose from the Pacific Mail agency
and become a most active competitor.
Mr.. Schwerin said that this had been
aided by the backing given by public
to the Japanese line which should have
been diverted to the American COM

Out for Business.

Mr.. Schwerin 5 present trip is for in
spection purposes, to ascertain what is
DOING all along the route, to ascertain
what new sources of travel and freight
can be tapped and to see where the
business of the company can be added

| Schwerin S talk given yesterday which
| convinces one that the aggressive gen
eral manager will lose no opportunities
to make his company the most popular

opinion that Honolulu is now enjoying

| hope for a "Iocal' boat between San
| Francisco and Honolulu on the part of
the Pacific Mail company. The cost OF
maintaining steamer the size OF the
China precludes any opportunity on the
part of the Pacific Mail company to do
this The two new vessels contemplated,
TO cost three million each, will be float
ing palaces. SAYS Mr.. Schwerin. They
will have first-class accommodations for
five hundred passengers. Each vessel
will be six hundred and fifty feet long
have a beam of seventy feet, have
Ithirtvpight thousand tons displacement

sand. Mr.. Schwerin added his criticism
TO that of The Advertiser, made last
week. that Honolulu Harbor is not ad
vancing fast enough to meet the in
creasing size of steamships.
There is fly in the ointment, how
ever. for with the addition of the new
steamers the China and Asia may be
taken off the runs.
