RIVENBURGH PLAINS LANDLA
CHANGES TO HOUSE committee

Mr.. Rfyenburgh. But that is no
longer than he has TO wait now. In
stead Of applying to the land board
now. he associates himself with -
others. and you might be the only one
among those % applicants who actual
~ desires a homestead. All Of the -
others have signed the petition, and
then that petition would come In d.
rectly to the land commissioner
Mr.. Johnson. And then would
have to wait until the BARRIERS. chauf-
feurs, tailors, etc, were weeded out
by the commission. I would be put
off for still another year.
Mr.. RiYenburgh. There IL no COM
mission to weed them out under the
present law. Under this proposed
law, that is what the commission is
for.
Mr.. johnson. Do the sugar planters
prefer the present demonstrating sys-
tenn, or do they prefer the leasing
system?
Mr.. RiFenburgh. do not know. I
am not a sugar planter, and do not
know what Is inside of their minds,
but l do not think they have any OBJ
lection to the present system. The
present system allows them to alb
sorb the fee to the lands which they
have under lease.
Mr.. Johnson. Did you not Just say
that the Japanese homesteaders, for
instance, made the bulk Of the profit
on the crops that they are growing
for some planters?
Mr.. Rivenburgh. Not the Japanese
homesteaders, but the Japanese la.
borers and contractors who work for
the homesteaders. He Is the man that
the man who is not O bona fide home.
steader depends on to do his work In
cultivating the land. He gives the
Japanese laborer the bulk Of the crop
for performing the labor.
Mr.. Johnson. That il the nonresi-
dent homesteader?
Mr.. Rivenburgh. Yes, sir.
Mr. Johnson. But now, under this
plan. 1t would be leased for periods
up to 20 years directly to the sugar
plantation magnates, and the Hawai-
ian government would get much less
money than it now gets owing to the
high price Of the crop? !
Mr. Rivenburgh. That would be the
difference between the conditions 20
years ago and today. : .- -
Mr.. Rivenburgh. We do not want
people who will not live on the land.
We do, not want nonresident home
steaders, but I'VE want people who win
live on the. land and do some work
themselves. :.<',@ ........I
Mr.. Johnson. You want the. land
cultivated and sugar raised on It?
Mr.. Riyenburgh. We DO mot care
what they raise on Il, but we want
them to cultivate it. We want them
to remain on the land Just a. they do
on the mainland i
Mr.. oyerstreet You want to make
bona fide settlers out Of them?
Mr.. RiVenburgh. Yes. sir; we want
those people to 60 on the land and do
something with II.
Mr.. Johnson. This Is not the bill

7 Territorial Board of Health
Urges City to Take Steps to
Divert Discharge From Farm
Dairy Land Because Of Pos
sibiity of Water Carrying
Subterranean Anthrax In.
lection

That as a result of the outbreak OF
anthrax at the Farm dairy, the disease
is likely to. spread over a larger area
unless steps are taken to control the
storm sewer which discharges directly
on the farm premises, and in view OF
the fact that the water rushes down
the hill thereby making 1t possible to
carry the infection TO the lower lands,
is the information contained In a let
ter to the board Of supervisors re
ceived Friday night from the acting
president of the territorial board Of
health. The matter. was referred to
the road committee for immediate &C
ton.
The letter says in part:
Il beg to direct your attention to the
storm sewer or culvert on Metcalf
street, at Punahou, and urgently re-
quest youh honorable board take i'm
mediate steps to eliminate the pres
emit condition and make some other
provision for the control Of the drain
age at the point mentioned.
1--WE must always consider these
premises as being infected and am
sure that you can see the menace
this storm sewer is, for during heavy
storms it will discharge large volume
Of water on the infected area. This
water will rush down the hill, wash
out the soil and carry the infection
that Is below the. present surface on
down to the low lands and there It
will be picked up by 9TH waterways
and distributed over q large area,
thereby establishing places of infec-
ton at numberiess points.
Premises Are infected
There dairy premises are, without
question, heavily infected with an
thrax, and this department Is now en-
gagged in disinfecting them so far as
possible. While we expect to be able
to thoroughly eliminate the infection
onethe surface so as to render the
premises safe to use for purposes 9th.

hope to eliminate the infection which,
without doubt, has seeped down

TWO TEAMS in I.
new SERIES
~ HI Hi

That there be both junior and
senior teams In the new series which
Is about to be organized by the man
agement Of Athletic park, was the
proposition presented by Pat Gleason,
manager OF the st. Louis team, at the
meeting Of. representatives Of the
teams yesterday evening In. the supe.
vfsors' hall. ~. ! +. ..5..,l.r
Pat Gleason will realize his aim to
get the two Moriyalnas and Yama-
shire IL the Japanese team Is made a
Junior" according to those who claim
to know Gleason's plans In attempting
to put the Japanese among the lesser
players. The Japanese resented the
idea very much and threatened to
drop out OF the league II they were
reduced to this standing.
Provided this plan to establish two
branches to the league should pass,
it would result In something like this:
There would be four senior teams :
Chinese, Portuguese. st. Louis and
one other. Two Of these teams would
play the second game on Sunday, and
the first game would be played by two
of the junior teams, which would be
the. Japanese, Chinese and Portuguese.
One junior and two senior teams
would. be idle each Sunday. @
Flrestones May BE Dropped y !.
The Firestones are not included in
the Arrangement and the, team may
be dropped from the league entirely.
There was no representative for them
last night. -
The junior teams would be allowed
TWO senior players, BY which Is meant
men wno were regulars OF the Oahu
League last year. @
The organization OF the Honolulu
League was again postponed until
Monday night at $3.50, because It was
undecided whether another team o.:
soldiers was to enter tie series.
q There will be no games in this
series on Sunday. =.

SEEK RAISE IN U. FACULTY
Request for Special Legislative Appro-
priation Will Be Made
During Session.

Madison = A request for special
legislative appropriation to make pos
sible an increase in the scale of sal
aries of professors and instructors at
the University of Wisconsin will be
made this winter, according to an an
nouncement made by President c. R.
Van Hise at recent faculty meeting.
For the last seven years, university
salaries have been based on fixed
scale WHICH provides for normal pro-
motions and increases. This scale has
remained the same for seven years, al
though the cost of living has been in
creasing at the rate of 3.5 per cent a
year or more. To keep pace with this,
President Van Hise proposes an in
crease throughout the scale. If the
change from the old scale to the new
is made in part each year, it will in
volve an annual addition of about $780,,
900 to the budget.

HIS IS GAY LIFE
Grocery Boy Has Charming Pros
pect, 1t Would Seem.
Lad Who Bounces in and Out of Other
Peoples Kitchens May Be Happy
Things to Divert In
curing Youth.

Life of every sort is a pleasant af-
fair to those who are interested in the
people they meet, interested, perhaps,
to the point of curiosity; interested,
at least, to the point of forgetting their
own precious troubles. A grocery boy,
who is just a grocery boy and nothing
but grocery boy, considers himself a
up in the dark and feed and pretend
to groom an unwilling horse. He must
fill kerosene cans or empty potato
barrels or grind coffee or run errands
or deliver groceries to impatient Gus
toners the whole day long and far into
the dark of the evening. His feet get
numb and cold and he is forever carry
ing about good things to eat with his
own stomach complaining of neglect.
1t is, you see, u difficult place that the
grocery boy has in life, place that
may be looked upon as one of the most
unhappy and uninteresting variety.
Nevertheless, there is, for the gro
Gerry boy who is interested in the peO-
pie he meets, interested to the point
of self-forgetfulness, and healthy Gu
riosity, a charming prospect, remarks
writer in the Indianapolis News. You
can imagine for yourself how enter
tanning it would be to go bouncing into
everybody'S kitchen at the most unex-
pected times. to know whether or not
this woman had washed her last
nights dishes, and whether or not this
one had scrubbed her floor, ignoring,
of course, the fact that if she has
scrubbed it your clumsy feet are track
ing it up again in the most awful way.
Think what treat it must be, no mat
ter how hungry and complaining a
stomach you have, to smell the vari-
ETY. of smells, TO see all the pots a-boil-
ing, to know what everybody in the
neighborhood is going to have for sup
per, TO glimpse the table in the light
ed dining room all spread and
waiting for the head of the family to
come home.
A grocery boy that is in the mood
to enjoy these things is not troubled
by the fact that the other head of the
family is scolding him and the grocery
and things in general because he was
not there an hour or so ago. He is off
with slam to the next house to see
what they are having for supper. He
knows where the good cooks live, and
where the cold boiled ham and pota-
to chip eaters dwell. You may con-
slider it likely that grocery, boys grow
weary of the sight of food, but food
on the grocery shelves or in grocery
wagons is never the same as found on
the stove or on it's way to the supper
table. 1t may seem 70 you an unhappy
thing to be fed Only by sights and
smells of other folks suppers, but it
is a very happy thing to go banging in
and out of everybody's back doors, be-
ing warmed by everybody's cheerful
kitchens and by the realization that in
every house in town there is going to
be some sort of supper. And then, of
course every grocery boy realizes that
there was never ssch a cook as his
mother and that after all the best sup
per of them all is waiting and warm
for him.
