SMOKED OUT

Declaring that the Makee Sugar
Company is discriminating against
certain hOmesteadels in 50 far as
it has one contract for a certain
class and another for the haoles;
that such contracts include the
mortgaging Of the homesteadels'
improvements in case of the fail
nre of cane crop; that such CON
tract will keep the homesteader in
debt with the plantation indefinite
ly; that an entire colony has not
accomplished anything tor the past
three years, since the period of its
existence as homesteaders; a II d
that there seems no possibility in
there ever doing SO, is the way i'll
which Small Farmer Nandever, a
former Green country Illinois far
mer who has since last November,
owned a home cad on the Kapaa
lands, expressed himself to q re-
porter just before he sailed for Ho-
nolulu last Saturday.
l came here last November" "
said Mr.. ValIever, thinking l
might profit by the experience of
those who had preceded me. l
found out, however, that they
were as much at sea as to what to
grow as l was, and as equally as
unsuccessful in their attempt to
even make living out of their
homesteads. may return TO the
island, but it il rather doubtful as
there seems absolutely no chance
to succeed as a homesteader under
the prevailing conditions.
A reporter, on investigating Mr..
Nandever's charges as to con-
tracts, etc. " learned that the
colony referred to, is situated on
the opposite side of large stream
which must necessarily be spanned
by an expensive trestle in order to
get a crop to the mill, and that the
Company is more than willing to
construct such trestle, providing
the colony will plan a sufficient
acreage of cane to justify the ex-
pense of such construction. This
is said to lie at least one hundred
acres, and that the colonists have
as yet been unable to get together
on such an agreement, is said to be
the reason given by the plantation
for not having planted their lauds.

London Town, " Going to Jeru-
salem," etc. were played with the

appearance as to obscure identity.

portion of the guests were twins.

may be specially noted. Mrs. } H
Coney as the big girl of the Lihue
Private School, looking and doing
the part to perfection, Miss l..
