TENDERS CALLED
FOR NEW ARM0RY

Completed plans and specifica-
tions for the proposed Lihue Ar
mory were received here last week
and. as may be seen in another
column Of this paper, sealed tend
ers are now being called tor bv the
Buildings Committee. In view Of
the fact that there will probably
be more contractors from Homo
lulu to bid on this work than from
Kauai, it was thought advisable
to open bids in Honolulu.
Chas. r. Forbes, Superinten-
of Public Works in whose office
the plans were proposed has offer
ed to act as agent for the local
buildings committee in receiving
and tabulating tn c bids. Final
award of contract will, of course.
be made by the building commit
tee. Bids will be opened III Homo

II, at II O'Clock and it is to be
noted in this connection that bids
from Kauai contractors III order
to reach their destination before
the above date, will have to leave
here OH SATURDAY., April 18th.
1t is not anticipated that the
complete plans can be carried out
for the amount which has been
subscribed and to that end the pro-
posals have beeh arranged so as TO
contain a number OF items" and
the first item, for instance, calls
for a figure on the building COM

general scheme meets with your
approval.

tract with the honesteaders should

| ter place the Governor took up
with Manager Faye The subject of
mill site and other leases which will
shortly expire. Mr.. Faye stated
to the Governor what the planta-
tion would probably be willing 70
do and the matter was taken under
consideration.
The Governor, Mr.. Larrison and
, Mr.. W. V. Hardy then went up
Walmea canyon to examine GER
tain water sources there, On the
way back the car in which the
Governor was riding stuck in the
mud, the wheels began suddenly
to revolve at a terrific pace and in
a nomeht the executive face was
bespattered with mud. Il have an

journey had again been resumed.
The party had luncheon and
good rest at Waimea after which
the return was made slowly to Lii

from the homestead districts, Gov
ernor Pinkham spoke briefly on
Saturday morning, a, Kapaa school
his remarks preceding the invita-
ton to the homesteaders 10 come
up in person and talk with him
and the other territorial represen-
tatives.
The governor declared that he
had not intended to make any talk
at all. but that wholly unjustifed
communications to the press re-
gard,ng him had led him TO do so
at last. He said his fist wish was
to find out what the people want
ed. He had never been moved TO
do things through the influence of
monied powers when against the
riRht' d tear was thing he had
never vet experienced.

GOVERNOR ADDRESSES
CHAMBER Of COMMERCE

ed and most particularly enlarged
upon by Mr.. Horner, whose des-
cription of the topography of the
upper lands depended upon, and
his assertions as to the possible
TRANSFORMATION on the mauka lands,
later to be returned to the govern
ment control, were given credence.
Reasonableand practicable trans
portation for all lands homestead
ed. existed or had been planned
by sthe previous governor. Mr..
Horner failed to tell me of the OBJ.
stacles to mauka railway construc-
ton. Possibly he had not realized
them, but was enthusiastic over
the possibilities Of contributing
from mauka lands a support for
the Nawiliwili port.
He himself lacked definite ideas
as to where he desired to locate
his proposed pineapple cannery.
During this visit 1 never once
heard Col. Spalding speak i'll of
anyone. or exhibit any reluctance
in surrendering any land or i'm
provements that by law or agree
ment reverted from his plantation
to the government.
He realized, as does any person
OF ordinary percept on, that the
homesteader in this Territory in
no respect is situated as is the
mainland temperate climate home
steader. The homesteader in Ha-
waii must have the most exacting
paternal care, both in providing
him with money, labor, inple-
ments, water, and transportation
until in effect the homesteader be-
comes the junior partner taking
by far the minority risk.
The mainland homesteader i $
obliged to work his way alone
from the start, entirely on his own
responsibility, and with little as
sistance even on the public high
wavs.
The government has neither the
authority or .means to assist the
homesteader to the extent his in
terests require, hence is obliged to
abandon theshomesteader or seek
to secure FOR him the private sup.
port necessary to supply those de-
ficiencies beyond its control.
1t was about the middle or last
of October before the homesteaders
had aligned themselves 50 the gov
ernment had any idea of what they
definitely desired, and even then
were divided into four groups,
which constantly shifted and ap-
parently precluded any economic,
comprehensive solution of the vari.
Gus factors necessary to their sue
cess.
Circumstances we'll known fore
ed delay which was not unfavor-
able to the homesteader.
AT the earliest possible day the
new land commissioner and heads
o f correlated deparIments have
come to Kauai.
One or two homesteaders who
set their private notions above gem
eral policies have been inpatient,
otherwise all have been kind.
Each homesteader has indepen-
IDENTIFY and in privacy indicated to
the land commissioner, his needs
and to what extent they had been
supplied and how satisfactorily, and
has covered term of five years.
There is one want and one i'm
perative necessity every homestead
er desires solved and supplied-that
is water for irrigation.
