Politicians at this time of the year,
especially, are most courteous to the
electorate. They stop on the streets
and exchange their greetings with ev
erybody and, as a rule, are always
visiting the places of amusement, en
tertainments and other social func
tions where the voters gather togeth
er for a general good time.
Next Saturday afternoon the Repub
lican candidates for legislative and
county offices will go down to Hau
ula, this island, where they will be the
honored guests at one of the largest
religious conferences to be held there.
Incidentally, this conference will be
witnessed by politicians, who. by the
way, are seeking the support of the
electorate there.
In accepting the invitations issued
by Kuluwaimaka, one of the leading
politicians in Koolaupoko, the Repub
lican candidates will go there next
Saturday afternoon to be present at
tions from the Koolau politician. The
party, according to those who will go
down next Saturday, will return at
night.
Thanks to a law passed by the last
legislature, presumably for the pro
tection of infant industries, candi
dates for political office are forbidden
to hang up their likenesses, speaking
or otherwise anywhere but in the se
clusion of their own homes. They
cannot placard the city with their pho-

Got Over Acreage.
We failed to get the area of land
that we wanted that was most conve
nient and we had to take what we
could get and got 28 acres over in
the vicinity where the railroad -shops
now are located. Later on they be
came convinced of our good faith and
came to an understanding with us and
we subleased from them eleven acres
of the land they had leased from the
Waiakea Mill Company, so that we
then had and still have 43 acres of
government land at the Waiakea loca
tion. We have occupied about one
half of it and are now occupying about
one-half and the balance has. been
more than we needed at present. The
business we have done has been sole
ly the business in the" Puna district,
where there are 5000 inhabitants, and
the town of Hilo. The extension north
from Hilo Involves access to between
thirty and thirty-five thousand inhab
itants, and business which is probably
not less than five times as great as
the Puna district. Under these cir
cumstances, and upon consulting with
Mr. George Denison in Honolulu, who
Consequently an oral
application is made first, then an ap
plication is filed with a map and de
scription by metes and bounds; the
approval of the Governor is obtained,
and a grant made either for a specific
piece or for an accumulation of sev
eral pieces and a grant made for each
specific piece.
Fisher: It would not be so necessary
for you to do that if there was a com
plete statement on record of justwhy
you needed this?
Thurston: I doubt, whether I should
go into the explanation I made now,
but I am glad to make public state
ments at any time in any place, con
cerning any transactions of the Hilo
Railroad Company.
Fisher: There was considerable
feeling in Hilo regarding this matter
at one time?
Ne Feeling in Hilo. .
Thurston: No, sir. There never .has
been any feeling manifested nor any
criticism manifested, at the area of
land proposed to be granted. As a
matter of fact, a public meeting was
leld in Hilo at which a map showing
this- 40 acres was posted as large a
public meeting as J have seen In Hilo
and the only suggestion was one
made by Mr. Metzger, which was that
the location be changed. He proposed
that it be moved close to the Waia
kea terminal .grounds, which we
thought would be very much less ad
vantageous to the public. , ' .
Fisher: Wasn't it clearly the fact
that this new location would take in
Mr. Metzger's lot?
Thurston: Our present location
does cover Mr. Metzger's lot, but we
have not taken Mr. Metzger's Jot,
but we have not taken Mrs. Metzger's
because we don't need It for the
present.
Metzger's Situation.
Fisher: We had qutte a discussion
with Mr. Metzger in Hilo on the prop
osition and in . talking with your re
presentative there and we rather ar
rived at the conclusion that It might
be possible for a considerable period
of time much beyond jtWsslx; years
possibly before the necessity of re-
words the reason yoa wanted to cross
especially that portion of the grounds
now; occupied by Mr. Metzger with his
house and outhouses would be appar
ently only to get access-to your main
track, and It seemed possible to do
that without disturbing Mr. Metzger
for probably a very considerable per
iod of time, if at all? ;'
Thurston : That Is correct?
Fisher: I don't understand why
there would be any disposition on the
part of the railroad to disturb Mr.
Metzger provided the question of
title would be : protected so that no
intricacies would arise as to the
title of the railroad company.
Thurston: . As a matter of fact we
did not question Mr. Metzger's title
he has absolute title from the Wai
akea Mill Company. , ,
Fisher: I am talking about the
time beyond the six years. Mr. Metz
ger has put in some improvements,
and it is some question whether in
a six years occupancy he was going
iu feci, uav.n ou; iciuiii uuuci iue
existing circumstances he would have
acquired possession in equity and
would- in time get the fee. Under
those conditions it had seemed to me
that possibly he might have some
equities that ought to be recognized
beyond the six-year period, if that
could be done' without raising any
implication as to your title.
Thurston: As a matter of fact, the,
bulk of Mr. Metzger's lot lies in that
portion which has been reserved by
the government which they have re
fused to grant to the railroad or any
one else, so that the question will
arise between him and the govern-
