legal officers OF the government and
the officers of the Land Department
that the said land laws are ambiguous
and unintelligible. What 10 needed
in the Territory Of Hawaii IN this
regard is plain, simple and
clear law similar in it's terms to the
precent United States Land Laws or
the Gambler Land Law whereby for a
nominal consideration and upon the
performance OF certain Homestead
duties clearly set forth, the home.
steader may acquire his homestead in
fee simple and that this right should
not be dependent upon the whim, ca
price or discretion of any executive Of
flcer. We advocate the enactment Of
a law by the United States Congress
with the above objects in view and
we pledge our candidate for Delegate
to Congress to use every effort to Sc
cure the passage OF such an act by
Congress. We further pledge our del
egates to the national convention to
use every effort in their power to
have a plank inserted in the national
platform pledging the national Demo-
cratic party to enact a law for this
Territory embodying the general prin.
ciples of the United States Land Laws
along the foregoing suggested lines in
so far as the said land laws are appH-
cable to local conditions. The Organic
Act as amended provides that the COM
missioner shall allot the public lands
in an amount mot exceeding eighty
acres, and sufficient to support there
on an ordinary family" We charge
the executive officers of this Terri
tory with violation of this plain pro-
vision of the law in that the public
lands are being allotted in amounts
ranging from five to twenty acres in
extent. We believe that the said land
should be allotted in larger areas in
accordance with the expressed wish
OF Congress.
Further Congressional Action.
We again urge upon Congress the
further amendment of the Organic
Act so as to abolish the office of SUI
perintendent of Public Works, abolish
the office of High Sheriff, allow cleo
ton of public boards by the people as
well as by appointment, appropriate
more money for Federal Agricultural
Experiment Station, appropriate more
money for the College of Hawaii and
maintain experimental farms on each
of the four principal islands. We
pledge our candidate for Delegate to
Congress to work for all the above
provisions and appropriations

THE MISSION OF A
cHAMER OF COMMERCE

The chamber of commerce of the
city of today is the exponent of the
community spirit. The suburbs may
have their Improvement associations
to express the community wishes of
that particular section of the city; the
economists their city club, and the
progressive women their clubs; but
after all, they are local in character
or restricted as to purpose.
The commercial organization speaks
for the entire community; it is the
glass through which the world looks
and forms it's opinions as to the char
acter OF the community in question
IL speaks, as no other agency can,
the mind of the community; it
breathes the community splrit.-From
