at night, climbing the mountains and

made concealed camp. When we reached
the top of the Wolf Mountains we saw
an enemys camp, near where the Custer
field is at the present time. Custer was
rejoiced and anxious to go ahead and

INDIANS WERE lNCREDUlOUS.

which in rart preceded the Custer en-
gagement,by saying that the Indians could

unexampled that whites or Indians should

SENATE SAYS HOUSE
PASSES TWO LIKE BILLS

The senate Is peeVed.
Il move that Senator Judd's verbal
report be written out and sent to the
house." said Senator Metzger.
Though the senate didn't agree to
this, it is peeved none-theless. And
the reason is that the lower body
passed two bills almost identically
alike, one of which has been signed
by the governor and is now law. The
second passed third reading in the
house last week and came before the
judiciary committee Of the senate.
The bill seeks to remedy the same
evil as does the former one, which is
now law. Their wording is little
different but in substance they are
the same" said Senator Judd, who
spent good many minutes last night
trailing down the other bill.
Though Senator Metzger's motion
was not adopted, word is going to be
passed to the house for it to properly
bill its bills, and that one bill is ordi-
narily sufficient to cure one evil.

old Hawaiian girl appeared before the

scented to Judge Whitney one Of the
most difficult problems that has ever
come within his honor's jurisdiction.
The girl. who was found Monday night
drinking wine in local resort, de-
clared that she preferred having what
she termed good time" to living
with her family. She Knocked a the
judges efforts to make her change
her ideas, and said that she was Of
age and that the court had no an
thofity to tell her what to do In
spite Of all the authorities could DO
she went her way determined 10 con-

We again desire to repeat our OBJ

action would severely cripple, IL 1t did
not annihilate the beet sugar indus
tries and the Hawaiian sugar planta-
tons.
If the present price Of raw sugar,

were reduced by the amount of the
present tariff on Cuban sugar, the
price of sugar would fall far below

both the Hawaiian plantations and the
beet sugar industries.
In California alone there Is an in
vestment of nineteen millions In the
beet sugar industries, and the invest
ment in the Hawaiian sugar planta-
tons is conservatively eighty five
millions. Sugar plantations constitute
the principal industry Of the Hawaii
an islands and are practically the
sole basis of its prosperity. These
plantations, like the beet sugar indus
try, would be practically destroyed by
an abolition of the tariff on sugar.
The disproportion between the very
small benefits to the ultimate consul
mer, which might come from putting
sugar on the free list, as compared to
the widespread injury which would be
done to the large numbers of people
in the United States and the Hawaiian
islands, whose cc1Amunities and pros

of the DUTY on sugar appear grossly

known as H. B. "a. The measure

tee, said he scarcely recognized it.
At that time he moved to defer con-
sideration of the senate amendments.
This was done and his committee went
over the suggested alterations, item
by item. Imbued as they are with the
idea Of "retrenchment," that is being
thrown at them from every side the
last few weeks, the finance committee
members of the house openly had an
nounced that they were radically OPP
Iosed to the amended deficiency bill.
As altered, 1t calls for total Of $132,-
900, to be expended on the judiciary
building, several wharyes, the Ar
chiyes and Library of Hawaii and sew
eral other items.
Watkins yesterday moved that
the house decline to concur In the SEN
ate amendments. His motion was
adopted by an unanimous show of
hands, and the speaker appointed Rep
resentatives Watkins, George p. Cooke
and Kaaua as house managers, to con-
fer with q like body from the senate

DEMONSTRATION
in FAVOR OF
AINAHAU

Nearly one hundred persons, one
many OF the most prominent public
figures in Honolulu appeared before
the lands committee Of the house OF
representatives yesterday afternoon
and for two hours discussed the pro-
posal to accept the gift of the late
Governor A. S. Cleghorn, taking over
beautiful Ainahau and converting it
into public property to become
known as Kauilani Park, in memory
of Mr.. Cleghorn's daughter.
During the two hours about fifteen
persons addressed the committee; two
were women, Mrs. F. ]. Lowrey, rep
resenting the Outdoor Circle of the
Kilohana Art League, and Mrs. Emma
NJ. Nakuina, both urging the accept
ance of the gift Only two voices were
heard in opposition to Senator lau-
kea's bill which would provide for re-
ceiying Ainahau under the terms of
the Cleghorn will; these we're Judge
A. s. Humphreys and Allan Herbert
The first argued the government
should not surrender it's policing
power to a dead testator, abiding by
the terms OF the will which would
compel the closing of the parks gates
during the hours of darkness. He
also said the park would be the
pleasure ground of the rich alone;
added that the rights of the heirs
should receive consideration and that
no man should have the right to take
away from his children their just
share of his property He admitted
however, that If the territory should
take over Ainahau, compliance with
the policing requirement clause of the
will would be easy. The territory
could pass a law making it misde-
meanor for anyone to enter the place
after sunset.
Allan Herbert's principal point
against the creation of a public park
from the Ainahau grounds was that
because of the dense vegetation and
the lowness of its lands it would be
miasmatic and unhealthy as a pleas
ure resort.
Supervisors Leslie Petrie and Major
Wolter, while urging the acceptance
OF Ainahau, declared that inasmuch
as the expense Of its maintenance
must be borne by the City and County
OF Honolulu, its control should be
placed in the hands of the supervis-
0rs; otherwise it might share the
ignominious fate of Hapiolani Park.
They urged also that the debt of
about $500 still outstanding against
Ainahau should be borne by the terri
tory, relieving the heirs of the burden
in case the latter derive no benefit
from the property.
Briefly, the great preponderance of
sentiment favored the gift; the speak
ers explained how the cost of upkeep
need not be burdensome; how, il de-
sirable Kaiulani Park might be made
one Of the most attractive, pictur-
esque spots in the world and how its
historical interest would equal its
beauty.
Chief Justice A. G. NJ. Robertson,
one of the trustees of the Cleghorn
estate, declined to speak for or against
the acceptance of Ainahau. He out
lined briefly the situation. discussing
the practical phase, but said the terms
of the viii would not make Ainahau,
as public property, an onerous prop
