PUBLIC RIGHTS TO THE SEA.

Honolulu, June l.. 1914.
Editor Star-Bulletin.
Sir:-Last Sunday a party of Ho
nolulu residents. also some tourists
drove out to the wireless station al
Koko Head hoping to view the beau
tiful scenery of Eanaumu bay and en-,
JOY a dip in its water. Several mem
bers of the party had been there
more than once before without hind
rance. but this time while proceeding
to the beach they were confronted by
a man who informed them they were
trespassing. When courteously asked
to permit the party to reach the beach
he fatty refused permission to cross
his land and stated furthermore that
lie owned the waters of the bay and
would not allow either bathing or fish
ing therein.
Such ingrained churiishness might
be expected in England. the country
where mantraps and spring-guns
await the unwary tresPasser, but il
certainly seems out OF. place in a free
country under the glorious American
flag. -.

THE PROGRESSIVE PLATFORM

No one will quarrel with the principles or the
planks 0f the Progressive platform, published
Yesterday in the Star Bulletin. The tone Of
the document is earnest, morally sound and en-
..rgetic. and economically up-tOdate and even
perhaps a little ahead of proved practicality.
Few Of the planks are new here. The import
ant new ones proposed are revision Of the tax
system to increase the proportion paid by land,
public ownership of the artesian water system,
legal process reform, the establishment of a ter
rftorial bureau of employment, equal suffrage
The important thing I'M the Progressive plat
form as proposed to the party's precinct clubs
is it's insistence on human rights" and "soeial
Justice" This is in accord with it's national
principles No showing has been made that the
proposed legislation is demanded. particu
larry by the local situation Nor is the call for
ain Industrial liability law, for extension Of the
child labor law, for minimum wage and occupa-
tonal health legislation or for the promotion of
public morality, made only by the Progressves
A Democrat, Senator Wirtz, at the last session
of the legislature led the fight for a workmen's
compensation act and will renew that fight at
The next session. Republicans in the senate
successfully supported the vice injunction law
which was finally beaten i'm the house. So with
other "hrlman rights and social Justice legis-
lati0n. TIKI. ..~l# ~@.y.. II"
The Progressive platform is hardly politi
cal document. at least it is not a. document on
which political parties here need split. There is
Just one plank at which one party here might
balk-the demand for the restoration Of the
sugar tariff Whether the Democratic party
here has the courage to incorporate in its ter
ritoral platform plank so directly counter to
it's national action remains to be seen. I
The platform proposed yesterday by the Pro-
sressiye leaders is not final, for the precinct
clubs have still to consider it. But there will
not be many changes. And it is perfectly fair
10 state now that this platform fails to show
any reason for a third party in Hawaii. Most
of the legislation proposed is along lines already
followed by either the Republican or the sBenis
ncrstic parties-often both. There is no great
single territorial issue or set of issues embodied
in this platform, excellent us it is, laudabe as
it is, to make it stand out from Republican or
Democratic issues. a@ H.. s.: ....f- s.....-. -.

SOME POINTS IN THE GoYfRNoRs ADDRESS

The ;FidlusS nv Governor TiHkham to the
businessmen who assembled at the Young Hotel
yesterday is the most important public state.
Inent the governor has made. Ii develops in
detail some Of the principles he laid down, upon
taking office six months ago, in his inaugural
address and earlier in an open letter to the
press.
His statement Of the land situation is ex-
tremeIy interesting and it will be a very general
surprise for the people Of Hawaii 10 learn that
the territory owns only $1,000 acres of arabic
land and this 10 scattered that in but three
sections of the territory is there any prospect
OF successful sugar mill operated on the seen

crs The grave problems confronting home
sfcading even under the most favorable circum-
Stances, such as those at Haiku and Kappa,
prove that the division 0f public lands among
small holders who are without Financial re-
sources is attended by muehsrisk of failure.
The governors whole statement on the public
land situation is evidence that demonstrating in
Hawaii Is still in the early experimental stages

Dent who complains of being denied access to

case. Almost every foot Of the waterfront be-

Upon inquiry st the tax office II
appears that the land in question Is
owned by the Bishop estate, and no
record OF transference Of title exists:
furthermore the tax officials said ae'
cess to the sea beach could not be
denied to the public.
1t is quite possible that this man
is correct in his assertion that he has
acquired property rights to the land
en- the shores OF this bay, but his
claims can hardly extend to the sea
itself Ii so. however. it would be q
meritorious act on the part of our
good Governor Pinkham to take this
matter up and see to it that the public
are granted access to this beautiful
bay. which is one of the beauty spots
near Honolulu.
The selfish behaviour of this man
was much commented upon by the
disappointed tourists, who will carry
away with them an unpleasant recol
lection of Honolulu that will neutral
ize TO a great extend the boosting
emanating from the Promotion Com
mittee and kindred organizations.
The party observed that many Unit
ed States soldiers from nearby
camp found their way to the rocks
for bathing and fishing. and II forbid
den, calmly disregarded the prohibi
ton. The civilians, however. prefer
red to respect the rights of property
and were consequently deprived oil
the best part of their trip. 81
Hoping you will afford space in
your widely-read paper for the fore
going. Yours faithfully, H.. =

FURTHER Fight
WAGED FOR
ROBERTS CHILD

Another chapter in the fight OF John
w. Roberts for the possession Of his
child was started today when a petit
ton for letters OF guardianship was
filed in the circuit court by him. Thu
fight for the child has occupied Judge
Whitney and Judge Robinson's court
from time to time Tor fortnight or
more, theS wife asserting her right to
the custody of the child. and the hus.
band his. Recriminations have fig
ured prominently in their fight. and
everything from petitions to writs Of
habeas corpus have been resorted to.
In Roberts latest petition he AYERS
that his wife has fits of insanity,
that she Is not q proper person to be
given possession of the child. and
that she has "hent its arms and legs
In an endeavor to make contortion-
list of it that il might go on the stage. !"
Mrs. Roberts in her petition for let.
tiers Of guardianship swore that her
husband taught the child to drink
whiskey and smoke cigarettes. She
was granted her petition. and the hus.
band Is now making an effort to set
Judge Whitney's order OF guardianship
aside, and have similar order made
by Judge Robinson in his behalf.
