these lands and water, and at a price
much below their worth
The committee will, therefore, pre-
sent for consideration and discussion
next Monday night the concurrent
resolution requesting Congress to
withdraw the developed lands and wa
ter from the operations of the Or
ganic Act. We believe that the rev.
enue which can be derived from these
lands should be spent, according to
appropriations made by the Legisla-
ture, only for three specific purposes
schools, college of Hawaii, sanitation
and health. We have every reason
to believe that if legislation of this
kind is not enacted, in a few years
the territory will have completely
lost what is now a very valuable
source of revenue.
"The only real objection advanced
so far by those who oppose this matter
is fear of drastic legislation in Wash
ington affecting the financial interests
of this territory, also that it seems
unwise for this legislature to pass
the resolution, seeing that at a
special session a year ago it went
upon record in favor of demonstrating.
Had the amendments to the Organic
Act been the same as those advocated
by the legislature, the point of objec-
ton might have been well taken, but
as Congress introduced amendments
which not only defeated the ends
sought, it would seem that this legisla-
ture should go upon record as resent
ing having the objects of the amend
ments made here being so ignored.
"Others claim that it is unwise to
have any legislation at Washington at
this time with regard to Hawaii. The
answer to that is that so far as the
on Ways and Means is con-
cerned, it is the committees
duty to point out where the Territory
as whole might suffer financially un-
der any existing law, and we feel
that we would be Sinking our duty
did we not at this time, point out
dangers which exist, due to the re-
cent amendments to the Organic Act
1.-THE object of the meeting on Mon
day night is to give an opportunity for
the public to go upon record in re-
gard to the passing of this resolution
the aim being to have a full and com
plete understanding of the resolution
and a discussion thereon in order
that amendments or suggestions may
be considered by the committee be-
fore final action is taken by the leg
islature.
"As there is no change made in the
present land laws, there is no bar to
demonstrating the undeveloped lands
which should be given to those making
a homestead at nominal price.
"The withdrawal of the developed
lands from hOmesteading will result in
the demonstrating of the undevelopeI
l.nds as intended ana VIII prove an
end 20 the speculative hOmesteudiug

portant sessions of Congress in de-

About Hawaii Poi.

Kohala Mddget:-Sheriff Jarrett
found conditions so unspeakably nasty
that he has not been able to keep poi
in his stomach since.
The president of the Board of Health
says that poi on this island is no
cleaner. He visited the factories in
the Waipio Valley, whence Hilo gets
its poi, and found that the pack mules
used in distributing the poi were
stabbed in the same building where
the poi was made, and that the stable
odor was prevalent throughout the
building, and the employees tracked
the stable manure into the poi room.
He is confident that the typhoid out
break in Waimea was due TO the Wal
pic poi.
With typhoid in our midst, and chol-
era only fifteen hours travel away,
what about our poi. Who knows wheth-
er it is clean? Who knows but the
typhoid is spread by it? Who knows
but rats infest the building where it
is made, and filth uncomfortable lies
just under the floors.
1t is a time to KNOW!

SIXTY SECOND CONGRESS MEETS
NEXT WEEK IN EXTRA SESSION IS
PRACTICALLY A DEMOCRATIC BODY

The Sixty second Congress meets
in extra session next Tuesday.
Divided in both House and Senate
and lacking unity of action between
Congress and the executive.
This is the remarkable and unprece-
denied condition in which the repub-
lican party will find itself upon the
assembling of the Sixty-second Con-
gress in extraordinary session.
In that crippled situation the ad-
ministration is to attempt to put
through important tariff legislation
and to account to public opinion for
the war maneuvers.

may prove to be one of the most inn

SENATOR FAIRCHILD EXPLAINS
DEVELOPED LANDS" RESOLUTION
TO Be DISCUSSED On MONDAY

In connection with the public hear
ing of joint resolution to withdraw
from operation of the Organic Act, the
developed lands and water of the Ter
ritory in order to obtain the maximum
of revenue in the interest of schools
and education of the people of the
Territory, Senator Fairchild, chairman
of the Ways and Means Committee
made the following statement to a
Star reporter yesterday afternoon.
zone Of the main duties of the Ways
and Means committee is to inquire into
the conditions of the finances of the
ing revenue and appropriating the
same, eventually come to this commit
tee in the Senate and the finance COM
mittee in the House. Therefore, it is
the duty of the Ways and Means COM
mittee to inquire into the condition
of all the finances of the Territory in
order to provide for revenue to meet
the appropriations submitted for the
consideration of the Legislature.
"As is generally known, the bills
or resolutions for appropriations for
this season have been from two or
three times the amount of the esti-
mates for the next biennial period
revenue. Generally speaking, there
have been no so-called foolish re-
quests for money. From the trend OF
affairs, the chairman of the commit
tee is under the impression that so
far as sugar is concerned we have
very nearly reached the limit of our
production. When it comes to educa-
ton and matters looking towards the
health of the people it is apparent that
greater appropriations will be needed
in the future than in the past. it,
therefore, seems advisable that the
Territory, looking TO the future,
should devise the Ways and
Means to meet this increasing eX-
penditure without increasing the bur-
den of taxation, which is already great.
Last session the legislature unani-
mously passed a Resolution asking
Congress to amend the Organic Act.
. Amendments went forward to Wash
ington. Instead of Congress passing
them as recommended by the Legisla-
ture, certain amendments were intro
duced, which resulted in more or less
defeating the object of the special
session called in the interest Of the
amendments referred to insofar as
they related to land matters. We find
that there is large area of govern
ment land with water which in the
opinion of the chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee is worth from
$5,OOO,OOO to $S,OOO,OO0. Should this
land be given to homesteaders at a
portion of its value, the temptation
for the plantation interests to acquire
it through the homesteaders, upon
terms which would induce the home
steaders to sell out their holdings, is
so great we believe it would result in
the Territory eventually losing all

But moments reflection is requir-

republicans in Congress; In the House
the democrats have a majority Of

for it includes radically progressive

democrats.
To all intents and purposes the
