1--WE want land that we don't have to
live on" is the cry of callers at the
land office, to an extent that indicates
a lot of trouble with land settlers in
the future. The proportion of appli-
cants for land who do not expect to
live on the land they are applying for
is very large. The letter recently re.
ceived from Hawaii in which an ap-
picant declares that the residence
conditions are hardship, and evinces
the opinion that the land Office can
strike them out, represents the views
of many applicants, who fail to rea-
lie that Congress has fixed, beyond
any local power of changing, the cast
iron residence conditions under which
alone can public lands be taken up.
Many of the applications received
seem to be from citizens who do not
appreciate the strictness of the resi-
dence conditions. AS to most of
these applications, the law provides
not only for ten years residence on
the lands before title can be secured,
but it goes further, and prevents sale
or lease of the lands even after the
title is acquired at the end of the ten

DR.. Victor Clark, who returned this

head of a general land, immigration
and agricultural bureau under govern
ment auspices, which is to be practi-

aid applicants in picking out lands
suitable for them, and advising them
as to crops, etc.
Complaints have been made by Anne
rican applicants for chances to take
advantage of openings of public lands
here, that there is no way for them to

involves in the near future a reorgani-
zation of the public works, land and
agricultural departments.
The public works department it is
expected, will be completely divorced
from the land department. A bureau
or department will be created which
will deal generally with matters of
land, immigration and agricultural
promotion work. The plan, which will
probably be submitted by Governor
Frear tG the Legislature, involves a
combination OF the work Of the land
immigration and agricultural depart
ments.
Instead of the public worke and land
departments being together, the de
partments of immigration, Land and

governor and land commissioner.
For Oahu lands many APPLICANTS are
being disappointed in seeking beach
lots and other desirable plots, in the
hope of maintaining a Honolulu resi-
dence while tney acquire title to the
outside property. There are scores
of citizens who would like to acquire
nice homes on the other side of the
island, on desirable government land,
with view to making them Saturday
to-Monday homes. But there is moth
ing doing" under the terms of the land
act, Those who apply are told that
they will have to make their real
homes on the land they ask for.
All of these difficulties with appli-
eants indicate a vast amount of trou-
BILE and litigation in future, after the
settlers take the land. lnnumerable
proceedings in ejectment are predict
ed. on account of violations of the con-
ditions of acquiring title, and the Land
Department of the government is GO
ing to have more pilikia than all the
other departments put together.
