The opening of Hawaii's season
of acqnatic sports finds no big
gaids in the lists. Say what thoy
will if tho degenerating influences
of tropical climes, tho croakers
can find little to strengthen their
arpurocuts among tho athletes or
the people of Hawaii.
A correspondent asks what is to
become of the S50.000 worth of
public lauds sold by the local gov
ornruptit since Autjust 12th, 1898.
Tho Bulletin has previously
stated that every title to public
lands civen by the local govern
merit f.inco August 12th, 1898, is a
questionable title.
President McKinley's latest
eperch, in which ho commends
ihe hwe of the ting, brings out tho
nsfprtiou from Hawaii's oflicinl
orgui'. Hint such remarks emanalo
from "rng bng brains." Such an
educational policy in tho now pos
sessions of the United Statrs
make glad tho hearts of Godkin
and Atkinson. It adds to thoir
list of American traitors.
After having made twenty-five
millions of dollars and contribut
ed one dollar toward tho improve
ment of tho cemetery in which his
mother is buriod, Russell Sage
said, on tho occasion of his eighty
third birthday, "I have realized
most of tuy idoals and am satis
fied." Russul's idoals are found
ed on much on tho same princi
ples as tho Edward Atkinson
auti- imperial snako society.
Let tho Pauuhi street nnmo
menu what it may, it is a very
easy matter for the officials to
change tuo pnmo of the street and
pat an end to the discussion or
any possible association of one of
the worse quarters of the city with
the name of one of the noblest wo
men of the land. Whethor Pauuhi
street was named for tho late
Princess or not, tho government
ought to have sufficient respect for
tho uiidio, in its association with
an ideal womanly character, to
eithor improve tho condition of
tho titreet or else change tho
name.
OPPOSITION TO AMl'.ltlOAN IIULIS.
Again roferriug to action of lo
oal authorities iu turning back cer
tain Ohiuoso who landed in Hawaii,
tho official or,jan Buys, ''It was a
ni itter in which the local govern
ment had no concern." These fre
quent assertions of independence
of Washington authority amount
to nothing, except as a demoustia
tinu of tln spi'it with whoh the
oftioials of Ilawuii accept tho in
structions of tht American govern
tnout, from which thoy roooivo iu
struotious and to which thoy aro
TospoueiLle, Such a thing as ready
acquiescence to American rulings
and tho adoption of a common
souse, honest American policy in
the administration of looal affairs
is beyond the intontion or desiro
of the controlling local authority.
At every possible turn the policy
has been, and is, one of iutorfor
onco with or objoction to American
rule. Had tho Executive Council
passed a resolution that, W herons
Hawaii belongs to tho Saints of
the Earth, Resolved that wo aro tho
Saints, tho opposition to Washing
tou authority having force and ef
fect in Hawaii could not bo more
complete.
It may bo that tho government
may make the asinine exhibition of
paying Mr. How Duck and his
compatriots as desired by tho or
gan. It is safe to say, howover,
that Attorney General Cooper will
riot accept such n ruling unless
foreed into it by a majority of his
associates, or directed to accept
such conditions by the law aud
treasury departments of tho Unit
ed States government. Tho Adver
tiser's special profit and loss de
partment wi'l registor only loss
since its anti-Amorican caueo fiuds
no support locally, except in Gov
ernment circles, and is merely a
conglomeration of misropresouta
tiou of the instructions from
Washington.
LANDS THAT WERE SOLD
Euixon Evening Bulletin:
The digost of the Land Act of
Hawaii of 181)5 says: "Applicants
for laud under systems named
above I, Homestead Lease: II,
Right of Purchase Lease; III,
Cash Freehold; must bo ovtfr
eighteen years of age, must be
citizens by birth, or naturalization
or have received letters of deniza
tion or special rights of citizen
ship, be under no civil disability
for any offenso, nor delinquent in
the payment of taxes.
Since the rnisiog of the flag
governmei)t officials state it in
sufficient that an applicant for
laud be a citizen of tho United
State and make sworn declara
tion of such fact.
By tho Newlands resolution all
tho publio property aud public
lauds of Hawaii vested in tho
government at Washington, but
since tuo ratification ot tho An
nexation resolution by tho Hn
waiiau government on Aug. 12,
1898 over 7000 acros of public land
of uu aggregate valuo of $50,000
has been disposed of undor the
oriuiua! laws of Hawaii of 1895
with the exception that an Ameri
can Citizen is eligible) to acquire
land.
A looal government official baa
made tho statement that when tho
Olaa aquattors protested to Wash
iugton against the ealo by the
local covornmeut, of the land they
claimed to have preempted, their
protest was referred back to the
local government without any
iuHttuctiouB. Then it was that
the government here wrote to
Washington to find out "whore it
was at" and what it had to do.
Two sales advertised havo been
lio'itpnued, one till Nov. 4th and
tho other indotlnately.
Why, if tho local government
has had tho right to proceod with
the soiling of 7000 acres of publio
lnnd sinco Annexation are thoy at
this lute day looking to Washing
ton for instructions as to how to
proceed. Have the laud laws of
Hawaii been construed as "muni
cipal legislation" or aro thoy
Ionization directly contrary to tho
land laws of tho United 8totes ?
Hpre we have a government
which is not even tenitorial as
yet, , taking upon itself tho dis
posal of publio land. This is a
power over which a full fledged
state has no control. By virtuo of
the United States Constitution all
publio lands are vested in the
Eideral government excepting
such land as the Federal govern
ment has given to tho state gov
ernments for stato purposes. In
case of a ruling by the govern
ment at "Washington in favor of
the stnnd taken by tho Olaa
sqnattnrs what becomes of the
land sold by tho local government
prior to the Olaa protest
