The magnificent Waikiki beach
property of the late VIM. G. Irwin Is
on the market, according to a state.

has charge OF the Irwin Interests In

last week from San Francisco where
he had been called in connection
with the settlement Of the estate OF
the deceased Inulti-millionaire
Although various parties have con-
Eidered the matter of purchasing the
Waikiki home. Mr.. Spalding states
that there are no definite negotia-
tons pending. II Is understood, how.
ever, that syndicate OF capitalists
from the Northwest which had tenta-
tive plans for buying the property
and converting II into q hotel, have
not given up their project. and may
yet be able TO carry cut their object.
The Irwin place is perhaps the. fin
est beach property in Honolulu. II
has frontage on the beach OF 1000
feet, and about the same frontage on

depth OF about 200 feet. 1t fronts on

said, are eminently adapted for hotel
purposes with comparatively little al.

WILSON MESSAGE
ON CANAL TOLLS
BRIEF EMPHATIC
Says Repeal Is Only Course the
United States Can At
ford to Adopt

The text of President Wilson's mes
sage to Congress on March 5, urging
the repeal of the Panama Canal tolls
provisions. was received in Honolulu
today 1t is as follows:
Gentlemen of the Congress:
l have come to you on an errand
which can be very briefly performed,
but beg that you will not measure
its Importance by the number of SEN
fences in which | state it.
No communication / have addressed
to the Congress carried with It grayer
or more far-reaching implications to
the interest OF the country, and | come
now to speak on a matter with regard
to which ] am charged in a peculiar
degree, by the constitution itself, with
personal responsibility
| have come to ask for the repeal OF
that provision of the Panama Canal
act of August "a. 1912, which exempts
vessels engaged in the eoastwise trade
of the United States from payment OF
tolls. and to urge on you the Justice.
the wisdom and the. large policy of
such a repeal. with the utmost earn
lestness of which am capable.
In CONFIRMATION Of Treaty
In my own Judgment, very fully
considered and maturely formed, that
exemption constitutes a mistaken ec-
onomic policy from every point of
view, and is, moreover, in plain con-
prevention of the treaty with Great
Britain, concerning the canal. con-
Guided on November rs, 1901.
II a -, r.
my personal views. have come to
state TO you fact and a situation.
Whatever may be our own differ.
ences of opinion concerning this much
debated measure. its meaning is not
debated outside the United States.
Everywhere else. the language of the
treaty is given but one Interpretation
and that Interpretation precludes the
exemption am asking you to repeal.
We consented to the treaty; its Ian
guage we accepted, if we did not orig
mate it, and we are too big, too pow
erful, too self-respecting a nation to
interpret. with too strained or refined
reading, the words of our own prom
Uses, just because we have power
enough to give us leave to read them
as we please.
U. s. Must Withdraw
The large thing to do is the only
thing we can afford TO do, voluntary
withdrawal from position every
where questioned and misunderstood.
We ought to reverse our action
without raising the question as to
whether we we're right or wrong, and
so once more deserve our reputation
for generosity and the redemption of
every obligation, without bubble or
hesitation.
I ask this of you, in support of the
foreign policy of the administration. /
shall not known how to deal with
other matters of even graver delicacy
and nearer consequence if you do not
grant it to me in ungrudging measure.
