EMIGRANT AGENTS
ARE WORKING
ILLEGALLY
Territory Is Without Power
To Issue Licenses for
Purpose.
CATHCART OBJECTS AND
DISCOVERS HE Is RIGHT
License Power Was Given to
Counties By the LegiSIa-
ture, Declare Authorities,

The two emigrant agents who are
working in Hawaii in an effort to lure
a sbipload of plantation labor away
for the summer work in the Alaska
canneries are operating Illegally, ac-
cording to an investigation that has
been made today
AS a result of a protest made byl
City and County Attorney Cathcart to
Treasurer Conkling, J. B. Craig ana
Henry Ogawa, although they each
paid $16677 to the Territorial Treas
urer for a four month license, their Ii
censes are null and void, and the two
men can be proceeded against in ac-
cordance with the terms of the law.
When the county authorities fIeaTd Of
the issuance of the licenses they con-
suited their law books and found that
, the Territory had given the emigrant
license problem over to the control OF
the counties. In accordance with this
discovery, City and County Attorney
| Cathcart wrote the following letter to
| Treasurer Conklng:
mir. Cox, license inspector of the
| CITY and county of Honolulu, has in
formed me that under claim of right
YOU have issued licenses to two immi-
grafton agents under the provisions OF
Act 81 of the Session Laws of 1905.
The city and county of Honolulu
claims the right to issue such licenses
and claims to be entitled to the license
! fee
81 do not desire to proceed against
the men who have obtained the IL
censes from you. but my construction
of the statutes would be that you no
longer have power or authority to issue
license to them; accordingly, they are
subject to the penalties prescribed for
those acting as immigration agents
who have failed to secure licenses.
81 would be glad to be informed OF
your position in this matter.
Conkling then consulted with Attor'
ney- General Lindsay and the Terrlto
rial officials reached the conclusion tina
Cathcart was right and that the IL
censes given to Craig and OsaWi
should have borne the seal OF the CIT!
