SWANzY FAVORs
HOMESTEADING.
Head of Planters Association
Talks Of Plans for Tract Near
HooIulu Park, Hilo.
Especial Correspondence to The
Advertiser,)


HILo, March 22.-F. M. swanzy,
president of the planters association
and managing director of Theo H.
Davies & Co., believes in encouraging
the small farmer, although he fears that
the small farmer will have pretty much
the same trouble with the labor ques.
ton the big one has had to face, Mr..
Swanzy also believes in the absurdity
Of some of the arguments advanced by
one W. A. Kinney against Governor
Frear.
So much came out in the interview
given by Mr.. Swanzy to the correspond
ent of The Advertiser here, the other
day. Mr.. Swanzy said that, for one he
is willing to see the government take
over the tract near Hoolulu Park,
which, some time ago, it was proposed,
should be thrown open and cut into
lots for homebuilders.
In speaking of the matter Mr..
Swanzy stated that the matter had not
been brought formally to the attention
of the officials of the Waiakea Mill Co.,
| but that tins was not the tault OF the
administration as the action of the land
board in such matters had placed the
Governor in a peculiar position which
prevented action.
He referred to the fact that some
! time ago the mill company had wished
| to buy the property-or at least some
of it, but that the thing had been
dropped when Kinney began his vitri-
ole attack upon Frear, The land board
also had declined to take the matter up,
and this was regarded as definite, by
the directors of Davies & Co,
In speaking of the charges made by
Kinney in his attack on Frear, Mr..
Swanzy spoke of the absurdity of the
accusation that the people of the dis
| trict would be injured if the mill COM
pany was allowed to "gridiron the
tract with rails. He said that, when
the lease of the company on the land
should expire, and the land be thrown
open to settlers, the existence of rail
road would be a benefit instead of q.
menace. He then spoke of the desire
Of the planters to see small farmers
coming into the Territory.

The issue in the Mahuka site con.

If the defendants stick to their
valuations, there is going to be a lively

The biggest difference in valuations
is shown in the answer fled for Mrs.

FORT RUGER MORTARs
ESTABLISH A RECORD
(From Saturdays Advertiser

(From Saturdays Advertiser)
Training the Fort Ruger mortars at
a higher elevation than usual, and
throwing s24-pound projectiles approx
mately $4,000 yards from Battery, Har-
low, Captain Waller, ordnance officer of
the western division, had the satisfac-
tion yesterday of finding that the ped
estals Of the gun carriages could resist
the tremendous strain placed upon
them.
Three shots were fred yesterday,
none of which caused damage to the
carriages. This concludes the tests of
the mortars, and they will remain ST.
lent until next August when they will
be fred for accuracy. The guns will
then be fred with the fire control in
use, when the distance will be accurate
ly measured and targets used.
The distance covered by the shots
yesterday is said to be the longest ever
attained by a l2-inch mortar.
Finished at End Of Year.
Captain Edwards, constructing quar-.
termaster, expresses the belief that he
can finish the permanent quarters at
Schoield Barracks in December. The
rush orders from the war department
will be an incentive to the army build
er to put forth his best efforts, and if
he is able to complete the buildings in
the time specified he will have accom-
plished wonders. None of the material
has been shipped yet.

CAS- COMPANY MAY
FLOAT NEW BONDS

AT stockholders meeting of the
Honolulu Gas Company held ON Thurs
day afternoon plans were favorably
discussed for an increase of the capital
stock of the company by $4,000 and an
increase of 100000 in the company's
bond issue, with view to financing
extension of the company system.
Kaimuki, Manoa and Kalihi residents
want gas mains, and in other districts
there is constant increase in the mum.
Der of users, hence the necessity of q
considerable outlay for new mains.
The capital stock is now 100000. It
| is proposed to make it $35O.00O. There
| is a bond issue now outstanding of
100000. The plan discussed at the
meeting was to call in this issue, and
float new loan of 100000. While
the matter was not definitely acted
upon, it is understood that the stock
holders are practically all in favor of
/ it, and it will probably be carried out.
"Investors would find it very good
bond" said w. r. Castle, president of
1.-THE company. "Those who now hold
the bonds of the company, in my opin-
ION, would regard the proposition of re-
funding very good. -
The gas company already has long
list of Kaimuki properties listed as
wanting to be connected up. Kalihi and
Manoa are to the front with the same
proposition, The company with its pres
emit plant, it is stated, can make gas
enough to supply them all. The outlay
for extension of the system would
therefore be mostly for laying mains to
the districts not now covered by the
company's service.

GOVERNMENT RESTS
IN BIC TRUST CASE

NEW YORK, March 2a.-The gov
eminent has rested its case against the
members of the alleged Sugar Trust,
indicted under the Sherman Act, and
the defense will commence putting on
its witnesses on Monday. 1t is under
stood that the defense viii move, as
its first step, for the dismissal of the
indictments as faulty.
Yesterday, evidence was introduced
by the government to show that the
American Sugar Refining Company con-
trolled most of the refining business OF
the country.
Contracts between the American SUI
gar Refining Company and the Ameri-
can Beet Sugar Company were read,
showing that the former controlled
the output of the latter and owned
thirty-nine per cent. of the beet sugar

stead Of injuring it, had more fully
sustained it.
The sales of surrounding, property
which the government had relied on,
he said, were not applicable. In dis
cussing the rental possibilities he called
particular attention to the $500 rent
which the First National Bank pays for
half buildings foorspaee, the same
sum being claimed by Cummins estate
for its entire foorspace.
He dwelt largely on the rate of five
per cent. discount on future interests
in realty provided in the inheritance
tax law and claimed that the rate of
discount given by Cecil Brown for the
government related only to thirty and

Whether or not the banquet, primar-

not, depends on the work of the joint
committee of eighteen members repre-

"Just as Loyal. I"

President Gignoux of the merchants
association spoke wholly, as Mr.. Castle
did partly, with the civic idea in mind.
Mr.. Castle remarked that he believed
the organizations should look upon this
as matter of civic pride and not as a
cold FLOODED business proposition. Mr..
Gignoux believed that the building
would be a monument to the pro-
gressiveness of our organizations and
added that "while we may not have
as many wealthy citizens as Portland,
which did just the same thing, we have
them just as loyal" All the other
speakers agreed enthusiastically to the
same sentiment.
w. F. Dillingham; who was unable to
be present addressed a letter to the
meeting giving his hearty kokua to the
scheme and saying that he had made a
small canvass himself and was sure that
enough business tenants could be inn
mediately secured to insure the success
of building costing anywhere from
$3.50, 900 to 100000.
