Lartfcjt Ever Put oh the Market Magnificent
Climate View Towards Town
and Sea Buyers.
Tho work of surveying tho Gear,
Lansing it Co. tract at Telegraph
Hill has boon completed. This trnct
now stands an tho largest rcsidonco
section that as been put on tho
market in Honolulu.
Tho survey has been mado under
tho direction of A. B. LoebeuBtein,
whoso capabilities in this lino nro
very well known, lie undertook
and carried out successfully tho
largest pioco of residential plotting
ever douo in the country.
Tho tract baa about 1000 lots
with dimensions of 75 by 200 ft or
100 by 150. Tho laud has been
covered with undorbrush bo that
00 miles of cutting w.is done,
which occupied tho timo of 2
inou working uninterruptedly for
58 days.
A good uuinbir of lots havo al
ready been sold, but not until tho
presout could tlio wholo trnct be
said to bo "on tho market " At pro
nout outlook this section bids fair
to bo ono of tho popular residen
tial portions of tho city. Tho laud
has at presont some surfaco rock
but the soil is fertile and with the
wator tobo furuishod from the largo
reservoir now in piocess of con
struction this section will blossom
with magnificent homes surround
ed by trees and shrubs which
make beautiful tho homes of Ha
waii. The location is such that from
every lot, iho moat boautiful
scounry may bo viewed from tho
windows and lauais of prospective
homes. From Telegraph Hill and
tho slopes toward Waialao may bo
seen Koko Hoed, tbo beautiful
oxpause of ocean aud on clear
days the distant islands of Molo
kai, Lanai. and Maui. On tho
town side, tho residents look over
tho town, across tho caue fields to
tho Wuiiiuao range.
Tho elovatiou of tho tract is
from ono hundred to threo hun
dred feet, insuring tho best of
drainage, while the trade winds
from tho valloys give a pure and
cooi'ntmosphoro.
Tho lots aro sold at very roasou
able rates aud with the oxtoiihion
of tho rnpid transit linos will bo
brought cloyo to town. Among
tho peoplo who havo already pur
chased lauds for now homes are
.Mr. Smvidl, Dr. Andrews, Mr.

Tho epitome of the Hilo Cham
ber of Commerco momorial is as
follows:
"Wo respectfully nsk that you
recommend in your report to Con
gross tho following, to-wit:
1st. That tho Hawaiian Islands
bo created a territory and given a
government similnr to that given
other territories of tho United
States.
2d. That tho Island of Hawaii
be made ono county and that Hi
lo bo designated as tho country
sent tl oreof.
3d. That a libornl appropriation
bo made for tho construction of a
broakwator in Hilo harbor.
4th. That tho presont cumber
somo nnd complex nnd laws bo
abolished aud that land lawo suit-
ablo to tho changed condition of
tuo islands and tavorablo to their
development bo ouncted.
5th. That a moderato education

William Matson aud Aloxauder
Young havo gono to Now York to
examine into the morits of some
of tho Btoamora thoro availahlo for
U80 in tho proposed steam lino be
tween San Francisco and Hilo.
Captain Rock remains at the
Coast to look after tho iutorests of
tbo compauy at that point during
the nbsenco of Mi. Matson. It is
possiblo tho steamer purchased
may bo ouo that will ruako tbo
voyage from Sau Francisco to
Hilo in seven days.
Now that tho Matson steam line
to Sau Francisco and tho lino to
Seattle aro practically assurod it
is probablo Robeit Young will
plaut fifty acres of his land at
livo miles with bananas. Tho
nearness to point of shipping and
tho adaptability of tho soil in that
vicinity to growing bananas
makes Mr. Young's investment
much moro valuable. With tho
cultivation of this faiit Lo will
then havo ou his placo threo pro
fitable products, tho othors boing
sugar aud coffee.
Iho luau intondod for Capt.
Miluor and Mr. Rurliug of tho S.
S. City of Columbia was given at
ths residence of W. A. Hardy,

tho guests of honor wore not pro

sot for tho 15th inst. when tho
Columbia was oxpocted to bo here.
All preparations woro made, tho

Abom 150 bunches of bananus
were cut for shipment to Seattlo
by tho S. S. City of Columbia, but
us the steamer did not return on
tho dato nuuouucod the fruit w De

They are of a ch lio quality and

AVhon tho Custom Houso officers
como out in tho nutty uniforms of
tho United Stntes customs snrvico,
thoy will probably bo mado to
carry in thoir hip pockets sealing
outfits such ns tho officers in tho
States have. This will enable
thorn, when a package has a mib
picious look, to put a tapo around
it and seal it with tho mark of tho
Custom Houso. Thus they will
niuko things suro without the no
cossity of standing by to watch
against tho diBapponranco of arti

Surveys to Form Counterpart of Hydrographic
Work of the Navy Treated to Break
fast In Town.
Company I of tho Second Regi
ment, United States Volunteer En
gineers, marched into town from
Camp McKiuley this morning.
There aro about eighty mon in the
company, commanded by Captain
Drapor. The company is on its
way to Penil Harbor. It was
marched into the Ar'intou Hot. 1
grounds, where, upon a table
spread on the lawn, was laid a
very enticing breakfast. This was
a treat to the company from Mr.
nnd Mrs. Thus. E. K rouso, host and
hostess of tho hotol. Mr. Davoy
took photographs of tho tablo be
foro and aftor tho arrival of the
company.
Captain Drapor told n BULLETIN
reporter that the company was go
ing to Burvoy tbo land around
Pearl Harbor. Tho work would
be tliH eountorpnrt of the hydro -graphic
havts prepared by naval
Mirvoyo'H. 1'his company would bo
encamped at the place for fourteen
dayn, whnn it would probably bo
relieved by another company.
Tho company was marching to
(ho place, and would camp for a
rest halfway out.
Mr. Comstocli, a member of tho
company, was on tho staff of the
Denver Ropublicnn beforo oulist-
ing. Ho said in conversation with
tho reporter that ho thought tho
work of tho company at Pearl
Harbor would bo lnrgoly tho grad
ing of sites for buildings of tho
projected naval station. Tho do
tail, as ho took it, was moro to qivo
tho mon exerciso than auything
olso. With others in tho Regimout
ho anticipates a mustering out,
sinco tho chauce for "scrapping"
with Uncle Sam's lato enemy hns
passed.
Boforo resuming tho ronto tho
company gavo threo rousing
cheers for Mr. nnd Mrs. Krouso,
its geuorous ontortainors.

- Sewall for Governor A. U. P.
All Right.
Col. Gilbert F. Little of Hilo is
ouo of tho loading American law
yers in this country. Ho is well
versed iu tho Amorican law nnd
the politics of his own country.
Col. Littlo was asked by a ropro
seutntivo of tho Bulletin for his
viows on matters relating to tho
futuro govorumont of Hawaii.
"Somo of tho statements pub
lished, as to what recommouda
tious tho Commission will mako to
Congress," tho Colonel answered
"may bo true, but 1 hope somo of
thorn nroinconoot.
"Iho frnnchiso seems lo be
liberal enough to suit anyone, if
it prove to bo ns stated.
"Tho number and makeup of
tho local Legislatuio is practically
tho snmo ns in any federal Terri
tory of tho class to which Hawaii
will belong.
"The question of citizenship
aud tho C nines- question will bo
settled by Congress. Tho public
sentiment m America is too well
established to leavo any doubt as
to the final determination of cither.
"As to the Judiciary sybteiu tho
word 'system' is a vory uncertain
torin, and really does not convoy
to tho mind of a lawyer any Bpccific
iuteutiou of tho Commissioners.
Tho necessity of having a judicial
'systom,' whother appoiutivo or
electivo, which inuet embody n
bupromo Court aud as muuy sub
ordinate judicial tiibunnla as shall
bo necessary to proporly and in
tolligoutly transact tho business of
the country, is ndmittad by every
one But tho judiciary system of
a country boiug practically its
motive powor, it is manifestly im
porntivo that tho 'system' bo not
iuconsistout, fluctuating or feeble.
You might as well try to mauipu
Into a man-of-war with a donkey
ougino, n? to attempt to success
fully run a Fedoral Stato or Ter
ritory with an untraiuod, iimxperi
ouccd, weak or vaoillatory judi
ciary. 1 presume our B stem will
bo similar to that of tho other
territories of tho class to which
this torritory will bolong.
"As to tho dologato iu Congress
from this toiritory ho will repro
sent no moro important interests
than auy other dologato on the
floor of the house. Whilo ho will
represent sugar, coffee, rico, otc,
othor dolegatos represout coal,
iron, coinout, gold, silver, ngricul
tnro aud lumbor, but none of them
will vote.
" I bolievo that tho two great
partios will dominnto tin politics
hero in tho ordor of their ascen
dency. And wo might just ns well
mako up our minds to havo party
organization. It takes the political
fights out of personalities aud
puts thorn ou tbo piano of priuci
plo.
" I boliovo in tho nttitudq of tho
Americau Union Party. Tho timo
bus passed when tho ' family com
pact' "can mako appointmonts of
people to ofiico with no othor qua

tho 'charmed circlo.'
" Who should bo thoGovornor?
Well, President McKinley proba
bly knows more about that thau

tho host interest of this country
domands that Mr. Sowall bo mado
