ming by Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Kahl-

There were some sixty-tive or

was fine; the floor excellent; the
guests were in responsive mood and
the whole affair went with a swing
and enthusiasm that made it one of
the finest dances of recent times.

A Crowd on Hand

The Special meeting of the Kau-
al Chamber of Commerce called for
Friday evening at Waimea was
somewhat delayed by tire trouble
of the car conveying the President
and Sec. When they arrived on
the scene there was a crowd assem-
bled that far out-ran the accomoda-
tion furnished by the Waimea Court
House. The Hall not being avail
able and the church not being suit
able it was finally found that the
public school assembly room was a.
vailable and the crowd accordingly
adjourned to that place. Some hun
dred and twenty citizens were finally
assembled among whom were many
persons not members of the Cham
Der but very vitality interested. A
mong them were so many Hawaii
ans that Keliinoe was requested to
serve as interpreter which he did
with much grace and efficiency.
The President Mr.. Frank Craw-
ford opened the meeting by explain
ing the purpose of the gathering and
suggested that the discussion be
confined to the matters in hand as
the regular meeting would follow in
Il few weeks.
Only Right Passage of Departure
Mr.. E. w. Broadbent- Chair
man of the Homestead Committee,
read carefully prepared address in
which he outlined the status f
homesteading interests and the re-
lation of public lands to those in
terests. He recalled Gov. Carter's $
graphic picture of the condition of
things on the island of Kauai in
1906 when it was admittedly sugar
barons paradise where the thrifty
and industrious ordinary citizen
might spend his days toiling for the
Lords of the land, yet never be able
to acquire a home. that he could
call his own and whose only privi-
lege at the end was a steamer pass
age to Honolulu.
Change in Eleven Years
Now. after eleven years the condi-
tion were still very much the same.
But some advance has been made.
At that time the public domain on
Kauai consisted of 13S,000 acres of
Government land together with the

of the government to slip over this

of the Makee Sugar Co. At Olohe-
ma Swap had been made give
ing the Makee Sugar Co. practical
ly all of what.was considered as cane
land, and all the water At Kala-
heo a similar exchange had been
made by which the cane land went
TO McBryde Sugar Co. and the COM
paratively worthless land was ac-
CURED by the Government.
Homestead Values
Nevertheless in these latter cases,
on these two unpromising tracts,
the wisdom of the Homestead policy
had been abundantly justified. On
the Olohena-W Waipouli tract there
are ninety Homesteaders with 3140
acres who harvested this season 81 =
500 tons of cane, worth s197 900,
besides a considerable value in pines
At Kalaheo 1854 tons of cane
had been harvested worth $4,000
besides pines to the value of S17,-
900. This from lands that under
the large-land-lord regime would
scarcely support one head of stock
to the acre.
What better evidence can there
be of the success OF homesteadcrs
here on Kauai, than this showing
of the prosperity Of the homesteader?
What About the Rest?
But there is whole lot of this
public domain left. and the question
what is going to be done with it is
a very momentous one for the citi-
zen of Kauai.

ing to the public by expiration of
