Tho hearing of tho messago all (lie

NEW BUILDING
FDR HANAPEPE
Among the matters that will be
culled to the attention of Governor
Frear when ha starts out on his trip
over 'the Island of Kauai is the need
of a new school building at Hanu-
pepe. OTbvernor Frear and Reclama
tlon Expert Newell are at present on
a tour of the Islands ot Hawaii and
Maui, and will return to Honolulu
before going to Kauai.
Superintendent of Public Inst rue
tlon liabbltt will speak to the' Gov
ernor, however, regarding the press
ing need for a new building at liana
pepo before he leaves, and It is prob
able that the Chief Executive 'will
look Into the matter. Mr. Babbitt
hus just received a letter from H. II
Ilrodle, principal, of the Hanapepe
school, in which it Is stated that with
a seating capacity ot 274' thoro are
now 331 pupils enrolled
This, according to Mr. Dabbltt, Is
no worse than conditions wore last
year, but the future promises still
more pupils without adequate room.
Mr. Dabbltt will try to get. 'some
land on which ho can build a now
building. He Is at present waiting
on the return ot Governor Frear to
put the matter before him.

THURSTON MAY
CONTEST JUDGMENT
"I interpret the decision of the
Supreme Court to mean that grow
ing crops outside of the exempted
forty acres are jxemp't,' sia'tid-fa.
muiBiuu uiih morning, -ana ir me
opposite stand'lsf taken by 'the Ter

shall contest whatever judgments aro
filed." , . ,','
Deputy Attorney General, Whitney
has not jet made out the i complete
list of judgments,! but they'wlll prob
ably be on flla tomorrow. As It Is
generally understood that the Terri
tory does take the stand that the
growing crop, outside' of the ex
empted forty acrc3, are amenable to
taxation, It Is practically certain thnt
a contest will ensue. Probably not
more than $5000 will be involved In
each case. .

TO REFDND BONDS
OF OAHU RAILWAY
Refunding of the Oaliu Hallway
bond Issue of two millions of dollars
is one of the piobabllltles of tho new
year.
Tho railway bonds aro now draw
ing Interest nt 6 per cent, and may
be taken up on the next Interest
date. These 'bonds aro now consid
ered pretorrcd security and with inon
ey reasonably easy In tho Territory,
it ts believed that tho wholo Usuo
cun bo refunded at 4 1-2 per cent.
This will mean a great saving of in
terest charges and a consequently
larger ampiint available for divi
dends. ,
The bonds are held largely In this
city. It Is believed thnt tho wholo
Issue .could be refunded In any ot tho
mainland bonding centers, nnd, on
tho other hand, the amount of money
keeking Investment already makes It
piobable that'n good 'share of tho lo
cal bondholders would exchange their
G per cents, for tho four nnd a half
per cents., If thoy havo to.
1). P. Dillingham, speaking of the
matter this morning, stated that the
proposition had been talked of, but
so far as he knows no definite, steps
havo been taken. Mr. Dillingham Is
particularly Interested in the Olaa
bonding proposition, It being possible
after the first ot the year to take up
the first-mortgage bond Issue, and it
the money Is available refund tho
wholo plantation loan. The planta
tion Is In splendid shnpo and It la
certain that the next crop will run
over twenty thousand tons.
