HILO, June 13-Deputy Attorney
General Smith came to Hilo last week,
and is now busy gathering data with
regard to the Kaiwih Third and the
Opea-Peleau homesteads, which are
located in the neighborhood of Haka-
lau, and are at present much in the
public eye, as they, as well as the
Kaunamano settlement in Kau, which
was the fort of the famous Thompson
settlement association, form a basis
for the new attitude which the gov
ernor has taken in regard to cane
lands.
In the case of the Hakalau lands a
petition was sent to the legislature
asking that patents be issued to the
homesteaders, who claimed that they
had fulfilled all the conditions and that
their time for securing patents had
long since passed. AS a result res
olution was passed by the legislature
directing the authorities to issue the
patents forthwith.
Mr.. Smith explains that the matter
had been submitted to the attorney
generals department some time before
the legislative session began, and the
encouragement in person had taken
I'D the examination of the various pat
ents, as he was familiar with the
lands. The idea was to ascertain
whether the settlers had fulfilled all
the conditions which must be fulfilled
before they could become entitled to
patents, and this took considerable
time. as there were many details to
be looked into. Before the work had
been completed, the legislature went
into session, and while this was on
the attorney-general's department was
too busy assisting the legislators &c
handle the homestead matter. The
Massage of the resolution, said Mr.
Smith, did not affect the attitude OF
the department The work would
have been taken up at this time II
every case.
The investigation of the KaunamanC
homesteads was finished by Mr.
Smith a week or two ago, and he has
Just submitted his report thereon tt
the department. In taking up the Kai
wiki and the Opea-Peleau homestead
matter, said Mr. Smith he was solely

ICE DEALERS COMPLAIN
Interstate Commerce Commission
Asked to Reduce Rates and
Allow Reparation.

Chicago, Ill.,. July 15.-After
landing another blow on the long
suffering public a few days ago by
boosting the price of ice 10 cents
per 100 pounds. the ice companies
are now complaining that they have
to pay the railroads too much for
carrying their product. Unlike their
patrons. who nave no recourse unless
they start an ice manufacturing con-
cern Of their own, the ice dealers
have taken prompt steps to get un-
der the sheltering arm of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. In
an appeal to the commission they
ask that the roads be compelled to
desist from charging what they term
unreasonable freight rates, and also
pay TO the ice concerns $250,O0O by
way Of reparatIon for alleged over
charges during the past two years.
II would appear from the representa-
lions OF the ice dealers that there is
a very short margin Of profit in their
business, and that unless the rail
carriers are directed to charge only
"a reasonable amount for service the
net earnings viii be completely wip-
ed out
The concerns seeking relief from
the commission are the Knickerbock-
er. Boyle, Haegle Jefferson, Lin
coin, California, Getting, Crystal
Esch, Wight and L. G. Tewes ice
companies The defendants in the
case are the st. Paul, Northwestern

GOTHAM HOPES
To BANk|SH HEAT
Artificial Cooling May Eliminate
SWeltering Summer Weather
Which Now Costs Me-
tropolis 100000 Day,

New York, July 15.-That New
York will be the first city in the
world to be cooled artifciaily dur
Ing the summer months as soon as
an efficient system for accomplish
ing this result is completed is the
most striking result of the recent
hot wave which in five days caused
more than 100 deaths and nearly
1000 prostrations and kept the am
balances tearing through the streets
to such an extent that the city thor
oughfares resembled an enormous
racetrack.
The possibility of providing a mu-
nicipal cooling system has been dis
crssed before, but nothing has ever
been done because of the fact that it
has been thought that the expense
OF its installation would be too
great Now, however, the realiza-
ton has come that it would work
tremendous economics. Experts who
have looked into the matter figure
that every sitting summer day caus-
es a loss of at least a million dollars
to the city's business interests
through the decreased efficiency of
labor of all kinds under the existing
conditions.
Every day when the thermometer
shows ninety degrees or over means
a decrease in working efficiency of
about forty per cent, it is figured
Moreover, practically every kind of
business feels the effect through
slackened public interest. Alto
gether the loss of half a million dol
lars a day is considered conserva-
tive estimate. Even at this figure
the total for the hot period comes
close to $25,000,000 which would
pay twice over the interest, on the
sum which it is estimated would be
necessary to supply cool air to the
city during the summer along ex-
actly the same lines, though on a
larger scale, as those by which heat
is supplied to the great Office build
ings in winter.
The solution of the problem has,
Of course, not yet been worked out,
but its actual value in dollars and
cents makes its ultimate arrival
seem inevitable.

aerial geography may shortly as
sumo a place with the other text
books now employed in schools is
suggested by the fact that the first
official air maps ever prepared in
this country are now being drawn
and chartered here The task is an
enormous one and when completed
Will provide maps and charts un-
dreamed of a few years ago.
Some idea Of the scope of this
now aerial geography may be gath
cred from the fact that it will show
all the air currents and air routes
of this country most favorable to
aeronauts, Landmarks, including
not only lakes and mountains, but
also the distinguishing night lights
of the different American cities, will
be explained in foot notes on sec
tons Of the map, just as buoys and
lighthouses are explained in foot
notes on ocean charts. The exact
location of all aerodromes or air
ship harbors in the country where
birdmen can land will be given and
each of these will be marked by air
buoys in thee form Of differently
shaped balloons and kites anchored
high in the air.
Lighthouses, too, will be shown
and it is proposed to construct a
series of inland lighthouses as has
been done in Germany for the guild
ance Of flyers. Sectional maps show
ing different air routs or different
sections Of the country are also to
be made, according to the Aero
Clubs present plans. These will be
printed on long strips OF parchment
and fixed to rollers The rollers in
turn will be fixed in permanent
place in the airship just as a ships
compass is. AS the armen pass
over each part of the country they
will thus be enabled to identify it
without moving in their seat by
merely unrolIng the map. These
yectional maps win represent areas
about ten miles wide, thus making
an allowance for the aviator being
blown off his course. Altogether
the coming Of the air age, among its
many other results, may revolution !
ize the study Of geography.

HUGHES AS INVESTIGATOR
Assumes Task Of Getting Evidence
to Determine Second Glass
Mail Rates.

New York, July t5.-In returning
here this week in the role OF expert
investigator, TO labor in an official
capacity in this state for the first
time since he left Albany for Wash
ington, former Governor Hughes
starts on what may be termed the
second lap of one OF the most me-
teoric careers in policical history
AS an Investigator and an unraveller
Of tangled problems, he is appar-
entity unriyalled and it was his abil-
ity In this field Winch first brought
him into general prominence.
His masterful handling Of the life
insurance Investigation led to two
terms as governor of this state and
thence to an appointment as mem
Der Of the Supreme court of the Uni
ted States. Now he returns as head
OF the commission which is confront
ed with the task OF gathering evil
dence 10 determine what should be
the rate for the different grades OF
second-class mail matter
While this is not such a task SO
far as The amount of money involved
as was the insurance investigation,
it is OF huge proportions and render
ed still more difficult because of its
many ramiiications as a chief factor
In the conduct OF the Post Office De-
Pal nent just what changes may
occur remains 70 be seen Periodical
publishers have protested against
any change which will increase their
rate, and the railroads which carry
the mails are pleading for read
justmeut Of pay which win allow
them to earn q fair return for this
service, plea which has gained
added weight since the report Of
the Postmaster General that out of
about four hundred roads inyesti-
gated nearly one-third are losing
money under the present system of
mail pay, a condition which Con-
gress will undoubtedly be called up
on TO remedy next winter.
In addition the railway mail
clerks have their grievances, thus
complicating matters still further.
Altogether former Governor Hughes
returning here in the role which
made him famous, that Of inyestiga-
tor, is likely to find himself con-
fronted with problem worthy Of
the man who Strengthened out the
life insurance muddle.

JUDGE HOLDS JOY COSTLY
Five Years Discord Price of Ulti-
innate Marital Bliss, Rules New
York Court.

New York, July 15.-That five
years of discord is the price of ulti-
mate marital happiness is the judg-
ment of Supreme Court of justice
just rendered here. No more in
opportune time could have been Sc
lected for the rendering of this
gloomy opinion since marriages at
this time of year are more numer-
GUS than at any other season How
ever, the dire pronouncement of the
learned official seems to have had
little effect since Cupid continues
to be just as busy as ever,
'In my opinion said the Court,
lit takes about five years for the
ordinary couple to become accps-
toned and adapted to each other be-
fore they can live together congo
nially In other words, il takes
that time for them to overlook one
another's faults"
The Court also upset the preva-
lent notion that a legal separation
Is meant to divide the man and wife
for all time by declaring nothing
of the kind This decree to live
apart often has the effect of forcing
the separated man and wife to APP
preciate each others company, They
can reunlte,"
Apparently, in view of these
learned opinions, matrimony is still
more Of lottery than even pessim-
lists have pictured it, says New
York correspondent.

LONDON. Feb. 1S.-The patriotism OF
British consumers VIII be put to the test
the last week in March when all the big

VIII have an all British week, during
which nothing but British made goods Will
be given display.
People will know they are purchasing
British goods. and a comparison with i'm

does not fear OF course there is no sug-
cestion oil excluding foreign made goods.
but II, is felt that IL the home manufac-
turer can show his wares equal in quality
to the Imported articles and sell them
at the same price, the public will be read :
lily attracted to them. The selling price
Is the great factor, for while the number
of persons insisting upon British made
goods Is increasing, the custmers who Sc
Icct the cheapest goods Irrespective of the
country Of origin from the vast majority

a man responsible for the management
OF one of the largest firms south OF the
Thames says ne Is receiving an enormous
number OF patterns from manufacturers
In England Scotland. Ireland and Wales
as suitable for al-Brltish display.
while travellers are doing their utmost 10
push home goods now that there ~ an op-
portunty for some preference In their
display.
He also says that one important benefit
British trade will derive from the week
is that many, ladies' VIII become acqua int
ed probably for the first time with arti-
cles which they hitherto believed were
made only abroad.
AS an instance. he took up a bundle OF
thirty patterns OF silk tapestries. and said
very few shoppers knew that excellent
tapestries were made in home factories
Even IL the movement did nothing more
| than to introduce such articles TO the pur-
chasing public, splendid impetus woulc
be given TO trade
| There was very little difficulty in ar
ranging an all-Brltish show. for in most
establishments the goods were chiefly
i British. What the home manufactured
wanted to do was 10 let the public know
| that, for the vast majority OF articles
they will get hetter value for their mon
! ey by asking for British goods.
