Act's intention in granting home
steads was takon at tho special

facilities for small fanners to
acquire holdings for tho mutual
benefit of thmiiHalvoH and the
country. If froo land detracted
from tho independence of tho
hoinoHtemlors, boumiHO thoy woio
given something for nothing,

for a reduction of appraisamout
of another class of homostcads.
If this bill passed, tlio lands
originally intended to ba freo of
rent might bo appraiso.l so high
that nobody would tako them.
Minister Cooper stated that it
was not originally intended t
h ivo I his class of froo homesteads
provided for. It might bo very
well if only native Hmvaiiann woro
t b i'k br-nofii'ianos of lhffrpir
Licu'ir part of tho Act, (ml people
of any nationality upon getting
lottors of denization had tho privi
lege of taking out this class of
loin. In unBwer to Rep. AVinstou
tiio Minister said tho uuioudment
was not an after thought, as tho
provision sought to bo amended
got into tho bill by inadvortouco.
Rop. Kamauoha thought' that,
ns tho Executive had to cafry-ont
tho law, dim consideration should
bo givon to its reasons in favor of
tho proposed amondmont. Ho
therefore moved that tho bill bo
deferred until tomorrow. Carried
by casting voto of thoSpeakcr.
Adjourned at 11:25.

a systematic search of eaoli of the

down to tho port
ers. In Mr. Fishol's pockot book
woro a number of papers which
woro carefully examined, and to
gothor with some told returned to
him. Tho Deputy Marshal himself
searched Mr. Fishol, and iu hand
ing the pocket book back said it
was not tho kind of money ho was
looking for. Mr. Fishol was sur
prised and dumfounded at tlio
search but, aftor mustoriug up
courogo to ask what tho troublo
was, was told tho polico woro do
ing thoir duty alul would take
chargo of his ollico until it was
thoroughly searched. Desks,
drawers, boxos and trunks
of all kinds woro opened and
papers especially carefully ex
amined. Ollicer Toma found n
sack of silver in a trunk which
was taken in chargo by tho'
Marshal.

according to Detective Toma who
has had her arrested three times
on that chargo, was arrosted and
placedin u separato coll.
Mosiu, anothor Japanoso, was
also arrested and is held pending

It appears from what inform
ation could bo gained in tho short
timo allowod that tho polico havo
long had tho boliof that the gov

robbed by Japaneso by tho pass
ing of goods through tho Custom

of this investigation has brought
to light tho fact that mnny

From information bumght to

that tho suspootod goods and
