The report has been circulated that many of the Prtuguse immi grants who arrived in -the S. S. Suve- rlc on December 1 came here with the understanding that they were to be given two acres of land for each family, securing title to the land at the end of three years, and that there was considerable dissatisfaction be cause the two acres were not forthcoming. There seems to have been a misun derstanding and the error can be credited to the use of a word. The advertisements circulated in the Azores and jn Madeira, pointing out to the Portuguese what they might expect if they came here, declared that "2 alqueries" of land would be given each family. This word has a "popular" meaning which might be interpreted as referring to "2 acres," whereas in reality it means nothing of the kind. Two "alqueries ore considerbly less than one acre, so when the Portuguese-families are given an acre of land oa the Hawaiian plantations they are receiving more than twice as much as they were promised. This proposition was discussed this morning in the shed of the Planters' Association adjoining the Immigra tion Station and Portuguese Consul Cauavarro came along while the sub ject was being considered. Mr. Can- avarro stated that, according to the measurement admitted by a number of the Portuguese immigrants them selves, two "alqueries"' were les than one acre. It seems that "al querie" is obsolete as a measure ment, the metric system now being used In Portugal. Star.
