.CONNESS WOULD LIKE
A FEW WATERFALLS
Governor Wants Some Assurance
That The Power There Will Be
Used in Reasonable Time.

HIIO, September 1S.-It is not the
intention of the promoters to run the
Hilo street railroad with hot air. Some
have been mean enough to intimate
that, but it really ism t the case, be-
cause Leland Stanford CONFESS has ask
ed Governor Frear to turn over to him
and his associates few OF the water
falls of the Wailuku river, back of the
Crescent City, the idea being to have
the water power ready when the time
comes to use it for the development
of electricity to make the wheels go
round.
While formal written application
has not as yet been made. CONFESS, dur
ing his recent visit in Honolulu, made
the request in verbal form to the Gov
ernor, who states that "a number of
important questions are involved"
Governor Frear last Sunday gave the
fact of the matter to The Advertiser
correspondent as follows:
Yesterday L went to inspect the
waterfalls of the Wailuku river at PHI
honua together with Mr.. CONFESS and
w. H. c. Campbell. Mr.. Pierce, the
photographer, was also with us. Mr..
CONFESS at his recent visit in Honolulu
saw me about these falls, the idea being
to use the water in them for the de-
velopment of power.
"No formal application in writing
has been made as yet; still we have
enough to go on to warrant making
an investigation. The falls in question
consist of series of falls, the names
of which are not altogether certain
as matter of fact some people call
the falls by one name while others call
the same falls by another-but the falls
are the ones about mile above Man
ager Campbell s residence-the big one
which can be seen from HilO. They
also wish to have the lower falls, below
the plantation store, desiring them more
as subsidiary proposition, to be used
in case the upper falls do not develop
all the power needed.
1.-The plan is to have the Territory
grant the use of the water, while the
matter of securing lands for power sta
tions must be taken up with the plan
tatiOn which holds the Piihonua lands.
ne matter Involves Ine SeLIllnR Oh
large number of questions. First of
! all there is the matter of the title to
the water rights in the river to be
looked into and determined. We must
also determine how much of the water
in the river can be used for power and
how much for irrigation. Then there
is the question of the manner in which
the rights should be disposed of, wheth-
er they should be disposed of through
private sale or through public auction.
The form of payment must also be
considered, whether the grantees should
pay so much a year or whether they
should pay certain sum for each
horsepower developed, or for each
horsepower which could be developed
from the water granted.
"Finally, there should be some provi
sion made to define the time within
which the privileges granted must b'
put in use, as we do not propose Il
4 grant a privilege merely to have i
held instead of placing it in use il
the near future"

ALBRIGHT AND
Stout AS RESCUERS

LONG BEACH, September 4.-For
the first time in the history of southern
California beaches, two men were res
cued from drowning here yesterday
afternoon by Hawaiian surf boards.
They were Paul Rowan, well known
real estate man, and stranger, whose
name could not be learned. Charles
Albright and A. ]. Stout, both fresh
from Honolulu, brought them to shore.
The stranger had swum out beyond
the end of the safety line, and, not
beeing a strong swimmer, could not
buck the heavy undertow. He began
to sink and yelled for help to Paul
Rowan, who was swimming few yards
beyond him. Rowan, seeing him go
down, hastily rushed to his side. The
stranger grabbed him and crippled him
by pinning his arms to his side.
1t was at this point that Albright
and Stout, who were out beyond both
the men, lying in wait for huge
roller on which to coast ashore, hur'
ried to the rescue. Stout pulled the
stranger onto his board and Albright
hauled Rowan onto his. Just then q
roller came along and the experts from
Hawaii, holding the boards steady
coasted through the breakers with the
almost unconscious men. The undertoW
began to carry them out again, how
ever, and at this point John Leenhart
the life guard employed by the hotel
reached the four men with a lifebuoy
held in his teeth by rope.
Leenhart is a very strong swimmer
and he towed all four the remainder OF
the distance to shore, where the
stranger sank to the beach with ex'
haustion. Rowan managed to get rid
of the water he had swallowed and felt
none the worse for his experience, but
the pale and frightened stranger hur'
ried away before his name could be
| learned.
Albright is a Honolulu newspaper
man aud Stout was formerly manager
of the Seaside Hotel at Waikiki, neal
Honolulu. They recently came to long
Beach with their koa wood surf boards
and were entertaining large crowd or
the beach by coasting in shore, stand
ing up, when Rowan got into trouble.
The surf boards are much larger thar
those used on this coast, being six feet
long, three inches thick and eighteen
inches wide. 1t was their size which
enabled the rescuers to place the drown
ing men on them for safety.

.LAURIER MAKES LAST
APPEAL TO VOTERS

MONTREAL, Quebec, September 20.
The general election campaign came
to an end last night, when Premier
Laurier met in joint debate with Henri
Bourassa, the leader of the French Ma
tionalists. The debate was strenuous

opponent down to discussion of the

In the federal court yesterday the
hearing of the Celtic Chief case was
proceeded with.
J. NJ. Dowsett, called by the Inter
