warren REPLIES
TO INDEPENDENT
Superintendent Says His Office =
Expensive But Necessarily 60.

In the following letter 1rom E. G.
Warren. he attempts to ansN,
charges made by the Independent last
week, that his Office was run in q
most extraordinary and bxtravagant
manner. We will hardly comment on
what he has to say, for We based our
statements last week upon figures ia
ken from the state superintendent
report and they must be correct. Mr..
Warren does not make it clear to US
how this mileage could be great
deal higher than that of ten Of the
largest counties In the state COM
bined. We admit that we did endorse
Mr.. Warren in the primaries, and We
will admit that we had intended to
support hiscandidacy in the present
campaign until hut recently when We
took the trouble to look up the state
superintendent's report, where we
found some startling comparisons.
Mr.. Warren throws out hint that
the reason we did not choose to sup
port him was because he was unable
to spend a sufficient amount of mon
ey. This is unfair for, referring to
that portion Of the article when H1eS
handed 1t in for publication, Mr.. War
rem admitted that we never asked him
for a dollars worth Of money, ana
that instead, we had urged him to
spend less money in the campaign.
The publishers Of the Independent
are not millionaires, but We have
managed to accumulate enough OF this
worlds goods 50 that the few paltry
dollars that We might manage to ex-
tract from our political friends are
sothing as compared to the indepenh-
ent stand which We are able to take
in the political game.

Editor OF Ward County Independent,
Mlnot. N. Oak.
Dear Sir:
In your last issue you take occasion
to criticise me because Of the expense
of the office of county superintendent
for at certain period Of time covered
by the financial report Of County Aud
itor Larson.
y We never object to just criticism,
but your article shows that you are
not familiar with the conditions or
subject that you are trying to dis
cuss. You make rambling introduce
ton to your article and state that the
period Of time covered was three

Aiken: Yes, guess that would In
elude his own labor, which Of course
Is Of some value. Under the right Of
purchase lease system we are not sup.
posed to receive any money on the
purchase price for three years. There
fore there is no money coming In with
which to build roads.
Fisher: That is the road question;
what about the question OF steamboat
and rail?
Aiken: We will have excellent
transportation facilities within the
next few months We have good
harbor, and steamers running direct
from New York and San Francisco to
Kahului; and within the next six or
eight months we will have a railroad
completed right to this homestead
tract.
Fisher: What are the rates to be
on the road?
Aiken: don't know; the card Of
rates has not been issued.
Are the dock facilities owned by
the railroad company, the Govern
ment or the steamship company?
They are owned by the railroad.
VIII the freight have to be sent out
by wire cable or will there be dock
age facilities?
It win. have to be sent out now by
lighter.
What does it cost to lighter freight
there?
Well. they charge usually at the
rate of $500 to $3.50 ton for rail
road freight and lighterage.
Then It costs from $500 to $3.50

of q few individuals who had lived

He also said that the pineapple In

sugar industry indirectly.
He said three Brewer & Co. plan.

Work for immigrants.
Mr. Iyers briefly reviewed the work
OF the Territorial Beard of Immigra-
ton. He said the Russians. while not
good plantations laborers, are good
workers In other occupations.
Fisher asked about the obstruction
of immigrants going away. bringing
up the matter OF immigrants arrested
as witnesses when trying to get away
TO the Coast. Ivers said this might
have been done in one or two In
stances, and explained briefly the
raids made on Hawaiian labor in the
past.
Mr.. Iyers told how California OBJ
jects to immigration largely because
OF the fact that laborers have been
brought from Hawaii and become pub
lie charges
Il can understand the evaporation
You feel here when you bring in labor
at considerable expense and someone
comes along and takes 1t away from
you." smiled Secretary Fisher.
