NO HITCH ON
OAHU Tunnel

While the government is looking
into the water rights that may be
affected by the construction Of the
big Koolau tunnel to serve the Oahu
Sugar Company. II was stated at the
land ONCE today that there is no
hitch whatever arising and that what
is really being done Is making an
investigation of the rights asked for
across government land.
The blue print of the plan shows
where the line OF pipe or ditch will
enter the Waisnu first district, which
is government ground. 1t passes
passes straight along the side of the
Pail until It meets the Waiahole main
stream where this bursts out of the
mountain. Some hundreds of feet be-
yond this Is where under the pros.
ent plans the tunnels is to be start
ed.
The only matters that have to be
looked into very carefully Is whether
or not there are any water rights ex-
listing over the ground needed for the
ditch. just at the point where the
tunnel will take its main supply from
the stream. and whether or not they
have the right to take the water at
all will all be investigated
There Is no doubt raised as yet,
however, as to any probable hitch In
the scheme. As matter OF fact the
land department will work right
ahead .on It, The necessary informa-
ton cannot be gathered for some
considerable time and the matter will
'1be undecided until then. o.
Link Mccandless' Claim.
According to Governor Frear's ver-
sion OF the case II rests with Link
McCandless claim for title. The
Governor said today: 1T Is matter
which we will have to make very
careful investigation of. under
stand that Mr.. McCandless claims u
title to the water rights but on what
grounds do not know.
"The matter has been before the
government for long time past but
owing to more pressing matters crop.
ping up from time to time II has new
err been gone thoroughly into. Mr..
w. f. Rowell. when he was superin-
tendent Of public works, made re-
port of the situation In connection
with scheme for running an cleo
trio power plant out there. During
Mr.. Carters time as governor an In
junction suit was started against Mr..
McC andless but II was never finished
and'I think IL pending still.
Prior appropriation does not APP
| ply here although It holds good
throughout the Western states on the
mainland. Neither can the adverse use
I Of water be brought against the gov
eminent, That Is to say no one can
simply jump In and take as much
water as they want without consult
ing the government about 1t. At the
same time careful examination into
the circumstances must be made be-
fore anything can be decided one way
or the other"
