The platform was read and analysed,
several sections being stricken. Among
these were the planks labeled "street
construction" CLOSES due to health
measures, - relating to the anti-mosqui-
to campaign and the resultant cutting
down of banana plants; the placing of
employees of the police and fire depart
ments under civil service, and the
plank suggesting the addition of Zone
capable citizen to each standing com
mittee of the board of supervisors,
such citizen to have vote.
An amendment titled ''tenure of
Office recommending that the charter
of the City and County of Honolulu be
amended so that supervisors shall serve
in classes similar to the manner of
service of senators of the Legislature,
and further that municipal elections
shall be held at date other than that
set for the legislative and COMPRESSION
al elections. As amended the platform
was adopted.

The Secretary called attention to the
special agreement forms in which

would do so with sinister motives. He
asserted that IT was not the American
way Of doing things and made plea
for open and above board methods in
the convention.
Lorrin Andrews replied in favor Of
the secret ballot. He said that this
was the only way the delegates could
vote untrammeled or without coercion
by the interests. He appealed to the

Platform Formulated.

The first of these planks was that
referring to the placing of the police

This proved too progressive for the

little or no support,

percentages of cultivation. He asked
why they were left blank. The Gov
ernor said the maximum was always
put in, provided the tract was com
posed altogether of arabic land. There
had been only one or two instances
where the maximum was not required.
Considerable discussion was INDUCED
in concerning the Thompson Settlement
Association tract in Kau, in which the
Hutchinson plantation figures promi-
nently. Mr.. Tucker said he did not
know how the plantation had continued
to plant cane on the homestead lands
except by verbal agreement, which he
understood was given the plantation by
j. w. Pratt, land commissioner under
Governor Carter, who preceded Gov
ernor Frear in office.
He was not aware than any rent was
paid since that time, but he stated that
the plantation had paid $1,000 and
would pay more for the use of the
lands, which have now been taken back
and are awaiting homestead applicants.
Mr.. Tucker said he notified Manager
Wolters in 1911 to get off the govern
ment lands wanted for homestead pur-
poses.
Mr.. Tucker was asked why the de-
partment opposed the application Of
William Greig. Mr.. Tucker said he did
not believe him TO be good home
steader. Asked as to how he seized
him up thus, he said he was too ezra.

Surprised at Charge.

He said he was rather surprised when
he read the Delegate s charge in this
connection. 1t had been the govern
ment s policy for years to reserve SIN.
gle lots for home lots, and particularly
in such places as Hakalau, or other
thiclSly settled places. He believed it
a wise peiicy. The places were small.
Those at Hakalau had seventy.five.

Questions Governor.

Mr.. Ashford then asked the Cover.
nor number of questions. He wanted
to know when lands were put up at
auction how the poor were to be pro.
tected against the rich bidders, and par.
ticularly the plantation men. The Gov
ernor said he would impose conditions.
In cases where land is sold for homes,
such as at Hakalau, there would be
terms of residence to be complied with.
He would have something placed in
the statute to prevent such instances as
suggested. AS to the plantations PIT
ting up dummies, the Governor said
warnings had been sent out for them
to keep their hands off.

they had the money. Eventually all
would be supplied with roads.
The Governor stated that he had had
cxtremo difficulty TO get tho legislature
to appropriate money for homestead
roads, Al present the road building
system was slow. Then again. there
was the probability Of bids being too
high. In one case S5O,0 was bid for
FIVE miles OF road to n homestead. IL
was out Of the question. Tho Governor
said the homesteaders knew tho situa-
ton before they took up lands. The
tracts were being opened up too fast.
Ii was all n matter of money. Even
Mr. Ashford realized this and said the
only remedy was to increase taxes. and
the government was milking all its
sources now.
The Governor said that the counties
are generally averse TO building roads
to homesteads, He said he was en-.
deavoring to get the county of Maui
to change it's policy in this respect.
Coming back again TO the Hakalau
strip of government land which the
government wanted to divide into resi-
dence lots, instead of homestead areas,
Mr.. Ashford said:
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1912-09-20
No Foundation in Fact,

dence lots, instead OF homestead areas,
Mr.. Ashford said:
No Foundation in Fact.
"We heard that the reason the gov
eminent did not open that strip for
any purpose, or for homesteading was
because the government did not want
any stores erected along the road which
would he in competition with the plan
tation store7' said Mr.. Ashford.
"That is perfectly ridiculous,' said
Mr.. Tucker.
The Secretary thought so, too. He
asked Mr.. Ashford if he was fully ac-
quainted with any facts to bear, out
the charge. Mr.. Ashford said he had
ed the Prince and had been passed on
charges. Mr.. Ashford agreed with the
Secretary that he should have run down
the source of this allegation in order
to get down to facts.
The Governor then explained the
Hakalau situation In such a way that
Mr.. Ashford said he was willing to ac-
cept the explanation, but thought had
it been given before it .M0ild have
saved scandal. :, a.,
The Governor said the surveyors had
been sent down there to survey the
homestead tracts. He had then instruct.
ed the survey department to survey the
strip for residence lots. He thought
the same party that surveyed the home
stead tract, surveyed the residence
tract, and for that reason the people
would have known ali about the differ
ence between the two places. For some
reason or another the same surveyors
did not survey the two places. If the
people did not understand the situation
it might have been due to this.
He said as a rule the people knew
all about the public lands and did not
need to be told much about them. He
was not sure that any advertisement
had been made of the government s in
tention to open the residence tract. He
might have made it public, through
the press, but was not sure. That phase
of the matter had not Appeared to him
before
