Liquor License Inspector Fennell has been engaged during the last few days in checking up the list of signa tures attached to Ryan's petition, to determine whether a sufficient num ber of the signers are property-owners, under the interprettaion of the law as given recently by the attorney general. " y Many of the signers are lessees of property in the district The attorney general has held that lessees are not qualified as property-holders unless their leases are for a period of at least a year. The result of Fennell's investigation is to be disclosed at to day's meeting of the board. Recommendations to the governor of a man for appointment to the va cant place on the liquor license com mission has been made but no word was received from the executive this morning, and it is thought he has been too busily engaged in other af fairs the last few days to give this particular matter consideration. 9 99 9 An abandoned baby six weeks old was foucd In the marshes near Cam den, Nj so badly bitten by mos quitoes that it may not live.

Has Not Fully Considered the Question but Thinks Com mission Has Power It is likely that the present Terri torial statutes may be interpreted to give the board of harbor commission ers power to regulate dockage charg es at privately owned wharves In. the Islands. This is the opinion givejo-offhand this morning by Attorney Gen eral Alex. Lindsay, on receipt of the communication from Chairman Mar ston Campbell, of the commission,' asking for an examination of the statute and a formal opinion on which the board may act. The verbal opinion came only at "first blush," before he had time to give the subject full consideration. "Although I have just received the request and have not given it all the thought a formal opinion will require, I. am inclined to believe that the har COUNTY CHAIRMAN IS TORN 'TWEEN POLITICS AND TENNIS WTiat should a county chairman Go when confronting alternatives of duty and pleasure and pleasure and duty? That's the fix of B. von Damm, chair man of the Republican county commit tee. It's this way: Some time ago the tennis cracks of Monoa valley, where tennis cracks are thick, went down to Ewa plantation and hooked up with the sugar men. The sugar men trimmed the townspeo ple to a fare-you-well. Thirsting for revenge, which is said to be a real thirst .the Monoa tennis experts have been practicing long and hard. They challenged the Ewa boys U a return match, and the Ewa" boys accepted.

This was on the theory that although privafely owned and intended for private us age, they became of such general usage as to be, in a large sense, a public utility. "Applying tne same theory, pri vately owned wharves in Hawaii which are used by the general public can be controlled, and I believe that (Continued on page 3.) This morning George Guild, who is one of the Manoa tennis enthusiasts, met Chairman von Damm at Republi can headquarters. The chairman was Jiut telling of the plans for the grand opening of the Republican campaign, and he gave the date as "Nothing doing," said Mr. GuiSI, "You've been named on the Manoa tennis team to defend the honor of Munoa, and you'll have to postpone the opening of the campaign." Chairman von Damm buried his head in his hands and groaned. Tne full gravity of the situation struck lfim down. When last seen, he was trying to decide whether to postpone the Re publican campaign opening or to lose his place In the ranks of those who gc forth to defend the fair name of Ma noa on the tennis court.
