ocrat. "The legislature did lots Of
good" says Norrie, but it also did
some queer and surprising things"
Frear Commends Legislation.
Not only did the legislature, just
closed, pass a great number of i'm
portant bills said Governor Frear
this forenoon, "but there was so very
little that it ought to have done that
it did not accomplish. Most legisla-
lures no matter what great things
they do, usually leave unaccomplshed
matters of considerable Importance
which should have been consum-
mated. There is comparatively little
that the last Hawaiian legislature
failed to do that it should have done.
"I would like to have seen a larger
salary allowed for the land commits
sioner, something in proportion to the
magnitude of the work expected to be
cotton through with, and I would like
to have seen comprehensive provis-
ions for the conservation of natural
resources, agriculture, irrigation, ex-
perimental farming, and the like, but
there is so much that the legislature
accomplished along other lines, that
what was lert undone sinks into COM
parative .insignifcance.
"The bills that came to me for sig
nature were in better shape than was
the case during the preceding session,
in better shape than has ever been
the case in any other session, I be-
lieve.
"The committees of the Senate and
House, especially the judiciary com
mittees, did splendid work in putting
the bills in the proper shape, both in
regard to language and in the matter
of avoiding legal difficulties.
1T is a little difficult to say what
was the most important work OF the
legislature. There are several groups
of very important matters There are
the school bill and the group of health
bills, all vitally important and all for
general welfare.
I'm not sure, as time goes on. but
that 1t will be found that the group
of tax bills will prove to be the most
important, II will at least be one of
the three most important Of the
groups Of bills. The tax bills are
closely connected with the differen-
tiation of powers Of the counties and
the territory.
Much has been done to perfect
county government and to put the
counties on an Independent, self
relying basis"

One of the unforeseen incidents of
the closing session of the House was
its right-about face action on the
question of reapportionment. What

in the Oahu delegation as it did, was
a mystery that none questioned on
the subject could or would explain

The Fairchild public lands plan,
which was approved by the legislature
after much discussion and the failure
of the legislature to pass the belt
road" appropriation, just as it was
placed in the Republican platform, are
the principal matters which Demo
cla ats are discussing today as the
basis for their coming two years of
work for control of the next legisla
ture.
Among the Democrats the proposi-
tion has already been brought up of
sending a man to Washington to op-
pose the Fairchild resolution. Con-
gressional action is needed to make
the resolution passed here effective,
Congress will have to amend the Or
ganic Act to withdraw the developed

resolution. Delegate Kuhio is order.
ed by the legislature to work for
such an amendment-and the local
Democrats may send representative
to Washington to work the other way.
Waller Talks Land.
G. J. Waller, a Democratic leader,
admitting that the legislature has ac.
complished a great deal of excellent
work, regrets what he believes bC
have been a most serious mistake
made by the lawmakers, namely the
fact that they did not kill the Fair
child land measure which provides for
the leasing OF public lands to planta-
tiOns and other interests for the sake
Of revenue for the schools and for
the encouragement of homesteading.
He does not believe that the law will
in any way benefit the homesteader
Gr advance the welfare of the Terri
tory. He is gratified because of the
school and heaMh measures, JAS
to the drastic emigration laws ne is
exceeding doubtful, remarking: Were
they not a little high-handed?" Mr..
Waller intimated that a Democratic
Legislature would not have enacted
such laws.

JOSH TUCKER MAY Be THE
NEW PUBLIC LAND COMMISSIONER

Josh Tucker is being talked of as
the coming land commissioners, which
officer is supposed to come into being
on July 1.
In the meanwhile Marston Camp
bell, in addition to being Superintend-
ent of Public Works and in charge of
the wharves, is also land commits
sioner.
Governor Frear today stated that it
was too soon to talk about the ap-
pointment, and Campbell merely
stated that he was at present in
charge. Josh Tucker is silent

office and some of the legislators are
talking of Tucker, inquiries being
made as to what kind of land COM
missioner he would likely make.
Senator Hewitt is one of the solons
who suggests Tucker for the position.
Attorney General Lindsay remarks
that the man who takes the job will
have to take adverse criticism from
both sides, rich and poor, corporations
and small farmers, vested interests
and prospective homesteaders. He
doesn't envy the incumbent, whoever
he is to be.

Will Of Mrs. JaniOn,
The Largest Shareholder
In Honolulu Iron Works

An item in the Illustrated London
News tells of the proving of the will
of Mrs. Domitila Rodriguez Janion,
widow, of Woolton Grove, Gateacre,
near Liverpool, who died on January
29 last The value of the property was
sworn at e9S,647, or $493,235, and
among the bequests are mentioned
her shares in the Honolulu Iron
Works Company, to three daughters
and a grandson of the testatrix.
Mrs. Janion was the largest individ-
ual shareholder in the Honolulu Iron
Works, being the possessor Of 1926
shares. The par value of these would
be $162,60O, but the actual value
probably twice as much. Mrs. Janion
was a sister of the late d. R. Vida,
her sister-in-law being Mrs. Vida, a

UNION SAILORS
MAKE RAID ON
SCHOONER SLADE

last night, but earlier in the evening
sounds of hilarity were heard coming
from the schooner, where E. G. Scott,
one of the men now under arrest, was
being entertained. Scott went on
board the r. c. Slade early in the
evening and engaged in conversation
with members of the crew. He seems
to have gained their confidence and
friendship, for he was treated to sew
eral drinks and the men chatted freely
to him. Shortly after ten Scott left
the schooner and walked along the
Hackfeld dock to where group OF
men had congregated. These men
had arrived singly and in goups of
two and three, but their clustering in
the vicinity does not seem to have
aroused any suspicious.
Said They Were scabs.
When Scott reached them, it is al
legged that he informed them that the
men on the r. c. Slade were "scabs",
and proposed an attack on them. His
proposition was hailed with satisfac-
ton, and with a determined rush the
men dashed along the wharf, passed
the guard on duty at the schooner and
scrambled aboard. Several of the sail
ors of the schooner were on deck and
they were attacked, the union men
punching right and left. Immediately

After sending a spy on board the
schooner r. G. Slade to discover if
the seamen employed thereon were
non-unionists, a band of between
twenty and thirty union seamen, led
by sailors from the bark Coronado,
rushed on board the schooner r. G..
Slade last night and fiercely attacked
the ron-union men on board. For the
space of few. moments pandemonium
reigned supreme, and when a knife
was used by one of the attackers it
looked as though serious consequences
would follow the attack. But the
weight of demijohn, handled by the
husky carpenter of the schooner, eff
fectively silenced the man with the
knife and a report that the police had
been sent for infused fear into the
hearts of the unionists and they van
ished into the night, leaving three of
their number to fall into the hands of
the police.

The attack was evidently a we'll
planned one, but the stubborn resist
ance offered by the sailors of the
schooner R. c. Slade and the timely
warning sent to the police by the GUS

vented the assailing party from ef-

short, to beat up the non-union men.

mond to another school and such
transfer will accordingly be made"
The Board finds that the charges
preferred by the principal of the Hilo
High School against Mrs Compton
have in the main failed of proof Sew
eral acts bordering upon insubordina-
tion en- her part have, however, been
established to the satisfaction of the
Board, and during the present school
year there has been amongst the
teachers at the school lack of har-
mony for which Mrs. Compton was to
a large extent responsible, for the
discipline of the school has been seri-
ously impaired through this lack of
harmony
THE Board therefore finds that the
efficiency of the department of pub
lie instruction will be promoted by
transferring Mrs. Compton to another
school, and such transfer will accord
ingly be made"
