Governor Frear is squarely opposed
20 the terms of the franchise extension
bill introduced in the senate "by re-
quest" by Senator Chillingworth a few
days ago.
The governor is sQuarely for the
terms Of the bill introduced by SEN
ator Judd yesterday and published in
full yesterday afternoon. That meas
ure, as Senator Judd stated in intro
ducing II. was drafted by che govern
or, and Its provisions are recognized
as the ADMINISTRATION attitude on the
important question OF new form of
franchise FOR the Honolulu Rapid
Transit and Land Company.
In a lengthy interview dictated for
the Star Bulletin by the governor, Mr..
Frear sets forth his attitude fully and
emphatically. The grounds for his OPP
position to the first bill are made
quite clear In unmistakable language,
and simultaneously he makes clear the
kind OF terms that he considers fair
both to the public and to the Rapid
Transit company. In response to a
query as to his attitude on the pay
ment to the public by the company and
on the plan for taking over the sys-
tenn from the company, he gave out
the interview this morning.
The bill introduced by Judd yester-
day will probably come up for its sec
ond reading and assignment to COM
mittee upon the return of the senators
from Hilo, upon which trip they will
leave tomorrow or Saturday.
Senator Chillingworth this morning
reiterated what he said in introducing
the first bill, that he introduced it by
request of constituent, but he makes
1t plain that his Introduction of the
measure does not mean that he will
necessarily stand sponsor for 1t.

Democratic Senator Introduces
Concurrent Resolution Me-
morializing President
SAYS SHIFT AT PRESENT
WOULD WORK AN INJURY
Points to Fact That Legislature
Is in SeSsion-Upper House
in Short Session.

A countermove to the report that
President Wilson was about to ap-
point a successor of Governor Frear
flashed into being in the senate this
morning when Senator R. III. Makekau
surprised the solons by introducing
a concurrent resolution to be dis
patched to Washington, praying that
President Wilson make no change in
the chief executives office during the
present session of the legislature.
The move made by Senator Make
kau. who is Democrat, was unex-
pected, yet the solons, questioned re-
garding their opinion Of it, replied in
favor of the resolution. Before defi-
mite action could be taken on it, on
motion of the introducer 1t was put
over until tomorrow when copies of 1t
are to be given the members.
The resolution recites that where
as by order of former President Taft,
Governor Frear was appointed 70 the
position of chief executive. and that
to remove him at this time. that is
whife the legislature Is in session, an
injury would be done the territory,
the senate. and the house concurring,
asks that Governor Frear retain office
until the expiration of the legislative
period

SPEAKER HOLSTEIN HAS PLAN
FOR CITY BEAUTIFUL WORK

He will propose to amend the pres
ent statute so that all board and
picket fences around yards and gar
dens must be torn down-shall be no
higher than the ordinary curbing-
or else the owner will be forced to pay
a special tax. :...5
Thus. if property owners have af-
fairs behind their board fences, or
horticulturists have rare plants on
which they do not care to have the
public gaze, they must pay the public
for the privilege of keeping their
secrets. Otherwise the beauties of
their private yards and gardens-or
their hideousness, as the case may be
must be exposed to general view.

Ducks Profitable.

It will pay to add ducks to the poul.
try department of every farm, says
the Poultry Journal. Nothing was ever
known to grow 80 fast and cause SO
little worry and work as ducks.
Everything is 'grist" that comes their
way. They consume vast quanti-
ties of coarse foods. and convert 1t
rapidly into flesh and money. The
growth they make is wonderful They
are Independent of the caretaker, ex-
cept SO far as food is concerned.
When they have grown to be two or
three weeks old they even provide
the greater part of their own food by
hunting for it. They are the hap
piest. brightest and most independ-
ent things on the farm. They re-
quire house or houses of their own,
plenty of water to drink and 3ud-
die their bills in. and grit In some
form.
