MONSARRAT GIVES HIS VIEWS
ON KILAUEA PARK BOUNDARIES

: Mr. Thurston. Mr. Cook has also
informed me of the remarks made
by members of the party that first
visited the land, but it is not neces-
sary to mention what these remarks
were at the present time.
Mr.. w. H. Shipman informs me
that he told both Messrs. Thurston
and Mr.. Giffard, on the ground, that
If this land (Ohaikea) was taken
from lKapapala it would ruin the
ranch, as it was the only fattening
land, and he also informed me that
he told the same gentlemen that the
lines drawn through Keauhou would
cut the heart out of this land, leav-
ing nothing but what was worthless
The above statements of Mr.. Ship
man have been made to others.
In good faith the H. A. Co. pur-
chased the lease of a. portion of the
land of Kapapala with all the condi-
tions, the greatest of which was the
a lawful fence. This fence to date
has cost $16,275 90, SASS AZ of
which was expended on the Ohaikea
land, and the cost of the fence COM
Ilete will exceed $25,OOOOO. l sub
nit that when this lease was signed
by the Government and the H. A. Co.,
10 virtually became a contract, bind
ing on both parties. The H. A. Co.,
has and is carrying out their con-
tract and the Government not to
carry theirs would be a rank injustice
to the H. A. Co.
Is it the policy of the present ad,
! nIinistratOrs to lease lands and after
Il large sum Of money has been ex-
pended on improvements to step in
and break their own contract, to
| take the land for a purpose that Will
not bring the taxpayer a cent of
revenue? 1t this is the policy. then
what inducement is offered for the
! improvement of Government lands
Look at the proposed lines (Kuhio
bilD and it has the shape of a
scoop" A straight line drawn from
the point where it connects with the
OIaa boundary, to the point at Laea-
pulli would have improved its shape,
but such a line would have caused
others to boiler louder than a roped
yearling.
In conclusion would say that | am
in favor of a reservation of the Vol,
cano and have been for years past
but on modified lines, not taking in
land that IS valuable, and that would
never be visited except perhaps by
a bug hunter, once a year.
The Advertiser published a letter
from ex-President, in re to this ma
tional park, but don't believe thai
Mr.. Roosevelt knows the circumstan
ces, as he was always for a square

ask.

AT HAkElwA HOTEL.

The management of this popular
resort wishes. to impress upon the
public that the food and water there
is at all times pure. The vegetables
are picked in the hotel garden and
the water is above the suspicion Of
experts in liquids. In addition to the
safety guaranteed by these conditions
the hotel is a capital place for a rest.
To those who enjoy golf or tennis OPP
portunities are for indulgence on the
best links and courts in the islands.

PahaIa, Hawaii, April 10, III

Pahala, Hawaii, April 10, 1911.
Mr.. Editor:-As Mr.. Thurstcn has
seen fit to speak of 'Monsarrat" in
his letter directed to Speaker Hol-
stein, in re to the national Park bill,
published in the Advertiser of the
10th, 1 feel in justice to myself and
the Hawaiian Agricultural Company,
that l should give my side of the
park story, fully approaching that it
is hard game to go up against good
writer, backed by a newspaper that
has a bunch of good writer's corrall-
ed, and me only poor cowpuncher,
who has never been able to rope and
tie a pen.
Mr. Thurston states in his letter
that if the fern forest, Koa forest
and a'e trees are not protected from
cattle, that they will be greatly in
jured if not totally destroyed. L
stand ready to prove beyond a doubt,
that there are more $50 called a'e
and other trees on this particular
piece of land than there were twenty
five years ago, and can also prove
by Mr.. R. S. Hosmer that today there
are thousands of young ohia trees grow
ing on the land of Kapapala where
hundreds of cattle are grazing, that
are not injured in the least by the
cattle. If Mr.. Thurston will read
the lease of Kapapala he will find a
growing on the land. If Mr.. Thurston
will make inquiries, he will find that
several years ago the H. A. Co., at
their own expense, fenced in some
10000 acres of their forest land, pro-
tecting it from cattle, and that it
has always been their policy to pro-
tect trees as much as possible.
l have never claimed that the Ka-
papala ranch will be ruined if the
land included in the park is taken
away from Kapapala. But have
claimed, and do claim that the land
of Kapapala would be practically
ruined as a ranch, so far as fattening
cattle for market was concerned, as
this is the only fattening land in
Kapapala, and its value as a Govern
ment asset materially reduced Mr. e.
Thurston has had experience al
ranching and he knows as well as
do that one can expect to get about
as many fat cattle off ranch with
out fattening lands as colts from a
Lunch of brood mares headed by a
gelding
At the time Mr. Cook saw the land
it was at the tail end of one of the
severest droughts experienced in
twenty-seven years, and / grant that
the feed was very dry, but let Mr.
Cook visit this same lard today, and
LIE will express a different opinion
II is also true that the water piped
over in that direction is some three
or four miles from the farthes
point of the land proposed to be TAX
en- for the park, but do not cattle OF
a large number of the ranches OF
these Islands, walk this, and greater
distances to their water, and are no
sure of getting it even then.
Mr.. Cook has informed me that hi
was hired to do the surveying, bu
made no suggestions, nor did he hay
anything to do with the proposed
lines, He has further stated tina
Mr.. W. NJ Giffard's idea was to TAXI
in large strip, running to the TOT
of Mauna Loa, but was overruled b!

hours is renewed, or in military Ian

arm of the service.
At Fort Shafter the ceremony is
very pretty, although the Second Bat
talon, Twentieth Infantry, that Is
holding that fort, has no band of
music, it can boast of a very good
trumpet corps.
Besides mounting the guards that
have the peace and safety of their re-
spectiye posts to watch, it is at this
military duty of guard mounting that
the post adiutant inspects the rifles
of each expectant sentinel, and looks
over each to see that all are accord,
ing to regulations, During this trying
ordeal for the new guard force OF
men, who are not entirely positive
about the spotless cleanliness OF
their guns, the buglers play theil
liveliest and sweetest tunes.
Guard mountings, which occur OF
the parade ground of the cavalry anc

care to be at the military reserva-
lions at the eleventh hour in the
morning.
