GOVERNOR NOW PLANS TOILET.
| I HOMESTEADERs MAKE GOOD

In accordance with the PROMISE he
made public during tno closing seq
sions of -ne Fisher inI:Iiry, In"ernor
t'rear has announced his plan for CIV
ing the Waiohinu and Hakalan home
steaders chance 10 make GOOD ON

advising al other hones-eadcvs so
that hereafter noaA will iced lose
their lands because OF ignorance Of
: proving ap." <%
AS he stated to the Secretary OF
fHe Interior, the chief Executive re-
beats his opinion that many H.;sup-
aerstood the homestealinS law. ee-
recially the amended act which has
recently set more stringent rules for
the homestead ers' compliance
In the case of the fifty-eight ap-
pifeants at Maiohinu and Hakalau
against. whom the supreme court
ruled this summer. the Governor says
that under the statute further time
be given for compliance with the
demonstrating conditions in some in
stances, and although the law will
have b be stretched somewhat to
give this Interpretation, it will be
done. If some do not desire, or are
not in a position to continue the
demonstrating, they will be given an
opportunity to sell their rights to
someone else who will homestead the
tracts, thus enabling the original ap-
-plicant to get return for the money
they have invested in the property.
The Governor says that hitherto
many have thought that the home
acquiring title through the perfume
tory fulfillment of technical require
ments, without a.sention to the CUES
ton of whether the homesteader
really intended to make his home on
the land and become a permanent
farmer thereon. me decision Of the
supreme court therefore came as a
shock to them, holding. as it did, that
demonstrating must be bona fide, that
the laws are really demonstrating laws
and not merely devices enabling per
sons to acquire government land
cheaply SO that they may turn round
and sch and make handsome pro-
tit with a very small amount of work
This was the old theory, he says,
and the iilducement to continue the
system has been especially great In
the case of the cane lands, despite
the enactment of the amended sta
tutes put into effect two yeare ago
1t is In view OF. this old misunde
standing that the decision to give
homesteaders another chance to make
good, has been made.
It is probable however" says the
Governor. mat those who have taken
or may take homesteads under the
new laws, will require considerable

RAILWAY MANAGERS
AND MEN AGREE ON
PLAN OF MEDIATION
Action Under Erdman Act
Halts Dispute That Threat
ened Big Strike.

The first Indication that an amicable
settlement may be reached on the diff
ferences between the managers and em-
ployes of the Southeastern railroads,
came when mediation under the terms
of the Erdman act was agreed upon by
the conferees. Under the terms of the
agreement, Martin A. Knapp, chief jus
tice of the Commerce Court and Charles
p. Neill, United States Commissioner of
Labor. are the mediators, and these
gentlemen will begin at once an inves-
tigation of the questions at issue, and
attempt to find a way to settle them
amicably. ..
While both sides in the controversy
hope the mediators will suggest way
out of the difficulty that will be agree
able, II Is by no means certain this can
be done. 1t is specifically understood
that should either side be displeased
with the findings of the mediators. they
are not bound to accept them. In this
event the situation would reverse to its
present status.
The mediation agreement came after
the labor leaders had refused to accept
the offer of the railroads to arbitrate
the differences The labor men were
unwilling to accept arbitration. they
say, because they would feel bound to
would be chosen by the managers and
by the arbiters.
Under arbitration, also, two of the
three parties, in case three were select
ed, would be interested parties. One
would b chosen by the managers and
another by the employees. and the third
man alone would be disinterested
Under the mediation agreement, 1t Is
shown, both parties are disinterested
men. They will confer alternately with
the managers and the employees, and
will then seek to find an agreeable basis
of settlement. 1t Is explained that when
the mediators suggest plan OF settle
ment to either side of the controversy,
81 will not be known whether the sug-
gestion comes from the other side or Is
original with the mediators.i They will
in short, deal confidentially with both
sides.
While mediation Is not as binding as
arbitration, it is said to be equally as
