It comes to Ilnwrtii tlirou,ii
trustworthy channels tlmt it is by
no means certain that Governor
Dole will serve out his full term of
office, notwithstanding his recent
Presidential upholding nnd vindi
cation. It is even credibly stated
that Governor Dole himself realizes
that he may be confronted by a sit
uation within the next six months
that will convince his best friends
as well as himself that the behest
of public welfare will demand his
retirement. Moreover it is stated
by a gentleman in touch with the
inner working of the Honolulu po
litical ring, that Governor Dole has
already formulated the terms and
specified
the contingency under
which he will, of his own accord,
lay down the habiliments of high
office nnd seek the shady retreat of
home and private citizenship.
The first condition named by the
Governor is that he shall be paid
his salary to the end of the term.
Friends, who are wealthy and who
approve the conditional plan of the
Governor, stand ready to see hi.ii
made good for loss of salary, should
the pressure of circumstance com
pel him to quit.
The condition of affairs, which
will put into action these passive
conceptions of duty on the part of
the Governor and his political ad
visers, briefly stated, is the defeat
of the administration in the coming
election. Iu other words the Kn
glish and continental view of poli
tics prevails now at the capital iu
Honolulu. Dole is "going to the
country" in this election. If he
tails of endorsement at the polls,
like a British cabinet, he will dis
solve and resign but with this
difference he has bargained with
private individuals for a continu
ance of his salary.
The process of ratiocination by
which the Hawaiian administration
has come to this lofty purpose has
not been unassisted by outside facts
and past considerations. It has
been learned at Honolulu, what
was known in other quarters before,
namely, that the endorsement of.
uoie uy uie rresmeui was not sucn
a lock, stock and barrel sort of an
affair after all. The true inward-
tiess of that matter has penetrated,
at last, to the charmed circle and 1
Dole too, evidently has been put
I
The endorsement of Governor
uoic uy rrehu.cniooseveii wasm-
dttced by certain influential senators.
I-.-I I... . 1 T ,. !..
These senators, whose constituents
are Boston and the Congregational
church, held up Dole's hands be-
cause of missionary nnd personal
ties. 1 he President could not turn
these senators down. The long
and short of it is that there were
political and sentimental considera
tions on the spot sufficient to induce
the President to stand by Dole,
without considering as iu thc prob
lem, n single Hawaiian matter,
The Hawaiian questions were all
dumped back upon Dole, with the
... , ' . . ' , .
admonition that he settle them his
ntfii' lf wlllllillir nt tli, nnllc lllJc '
fall.
These reported negotiations of
the Governor would indicate that
he believes in taking time by the I
, . . . ., oxU.nt 0f ,einir
I Iorcloclv l0 llle cxiu ol t,b
1 ready to choose cituer route when
he comes to a fork in thc road.
The incredible phase of the re
ported arrangement is that the
Governor should at this late day
manifest such a startling disposition
to consider the wishes of the people
over whom he reigns. In spite of
the apparent reflection upon pure
disinterestedness of purpose, which
has ever been Governor Dole's
chief distinction as a servant of the
people, the public will not find
fault with his demand that his
salary to the end of his term be
guaranteed. On the contrary,
there are to be found on this island,
patriots who would not only con
tribute to the fund to make good
the unearned salary, but would go
iu for a substantial' purse on the
side.
t
The Republicans on Kauai are
said to be very wide awake and
actively interested iu the approach
ing campaign. The particular
thing which has worked them up
iu an off year fight, is the reported
determination of a Honolulu fac
tion to bring about the removal of
two heads of departments appointed
by Governor Dole during the last
session of the legislature. It is
universally held on this island that
the two officials referred to, arc
most efficient and industrious. It
would not be denied on the big
island that Superintendent Uoyd
and Treasurer Wright are the most
popular public officials in Hawaii.
The reason for it is the general be-
I lief that they, each in his respec
tive line, has accomplished more, j
under great and adverse difficulties
than could have been expected
from anybody.
It is noticeable that only those
who were not present nt the Repub
lican nominating convention in
Hilo, are dissatisfied with the dele
gations chosen to represent the dis
trict at the two conventions. Kven
as it is, the voice of the kicker has
descended to a low growl.
Judging from the enthusiasm
manifest at the Olaa precinct club
meeting last week, nothing can
dampen the ardor of Olaa Republi
canism. If the precinct is wiped
off the map and all its voters dis
franchised, the boys will rally j'ust
the same.

After Nino Hays Work Coroner's
Jury Completes Its Labor.
The coroner's jury, sitting iu the
case of the Japanese, Mntohiro Kit
aio, who was found dead with his
throat cut, on the evening of July
25th, returned a virdict Monday
night after an almost continuous
session lusting nine days. The
verdict is that deceased was mur
dered by Wntanabe Masaji and
Funakoshi Jatsagoro. The verdict
also names six other Japanese in
cluding two women as accessories
before the fact.
The verdict in full is as follows :
"An inquisition taken at Hilo,
South Hilo, Island of Hawaii, on
the Fourth day of August, in the
year 1902, before h. A. Andrews,
one of the Coroners of said Island,
upon the body of Motohiro Kitaro
(Jap) there lying dead, by the
oaths of the Jurors whose names
sire hereunto subscribed, who being
iworn to inquire when, how and
'iy what means the said Motohiro
Kitaro came to his death, upon
their oaths do say that the jaid
Motohiro Kitaro came to his death
at Hilo, South Hilob Island and
Territory of Hawaii, on July 25th,
1902, between 6 p. m. and 7 p. in.,
by being stabbed in the neck by n
knife.
"That the said deceased was
murdered by Wntanabe Masaji and
Funakoshi Tatsugoro, and that Set
Ichitaro, Taka Seo (w), Kane Fun
akoshi (w), Ushijima Matzutaro,
Hayashi Tetsu, Kobataki Toyo
tuchi, and other persons unknown
to the Jury arc accessories before
tne rnct
"In witness whereof, the said
Joroner, and the Jurors of this in
utest, have hereunto set their
tands the day and year aforesaid.

The persons charged with the
murder are all iu the custody ol the
Sheriff, having been arrested on
the evening of the alleged crime.
Funakoshi and Wntanabe, who are
charged with murder iu the first
degree, were brought before Dis
trict Magistrate Hapai last Tues
day morning for arraignment,
Smith & Parsons appearing as
counsel for the Territory. The
charge of murder against each of
ihe prisoners was read by the
Sheriff. The counsel for the de
fendants, Wise & Ross and I,e
Illond & Smith were in Court and
at this point Mr. I.elllond arose
and insisted that it was time they
be permitted to consult with their
clients. The Ccurt moved the
nutters forward three days in ordei
to permit the consultation.
DAKOTA FARMERS COMINO.
Sixteen Families, Itepreseutlui;
$il)(),00(), Yi III Settle In Komi.
Honolulu, August 4. W i t h
the colonization of the Dis
trict of Kona, Island of Hawaii, by
good, staunch American small
farmers, inured to all manner ol
hardships and supplied with an
amount of capital which would
guarantee their living expenses un
til such time as the earth shall be
gin to send forth its products; with
a railroad passing through the
principal towns, connecting with
shipping ports and eventually join-
, , g with the Hi0 ,!M! am, wuh .
. , . . . , ,
, special steamer to carry to II0110
1 ll" the products of farms, there
seems to be every reason to believe
that this place would become one
ol the most important centers iu thv
, Islands,
I Much has been said about small
farmers, but, outside of the Wnhi
awa movement, there was nothing
much iu this line to speak about
until within about a month rmo.
when there arrived at this port a
well-to-do farmer from Dakota, Mr.
Giddings by nnmc.
Articles iu the papers, written by
Mr. Huchholtz of Kona or by him
dictated to reporters, reached the
State from which Mr. Giddings
hails. He and some of his friends
studied the ai tides very closely and
found iu them an absolute freedom
from any attempt nt booming. The
truth about Kona was very evi
dently told and, after studying
over thc situation very carefully,
Mr. Giddings decided to come to
the Islands to make an investiga
tion into thc conditions.
Mr. Giddings explained that the
men whom he represented were all
well-to-do, not one of the number
having less than $5,000 and a num
ber having as high as $50,000 or
$60,000. At a rough estimate, thc
families which he represented were
the possessors of something like
$200,000.
It is believed by those most inter
ested iu this movement that the ac
tion of the Dakota farmers will be
the means of inducing many of the
same sturdy kind of people all over
the Mainland to come to Hawaii to
settle.
LANDS OPENED.
Pima and OI1111 Allotment Attracts .
Mu uy Applicants.
Since Inst Monday the Territory
of Hawaii is a smaller land holder
of from 2,500 to 3,000 acres nnd
1 10 citizens are the possessors of
homesteads. J.and Agent K. D.
Baldwin had his hands full at his
office in caring for the crowd of ap
plicants which besieged his door,
eager to become owners of Olaa
and Puna land.
The advertised date for opening
the lands was Monday, August 4.
As early as the previous Thursday
night, a land boomer with a chair
and roll of magazines, sat himself
down at Baldwin's office door and
proceeded to bide his time. He
was soon joined by others and by
Saturday night the sidew.ilk was
covered for five rods with a patient
line of people, waiting for the books
to open Monday morning.
The Hawaiians were in the ma
jority, although all resident nation
alities were represented. IJaily
Monday morning there appealed
on the scene those who wanted
land but who had not figured on
butting into such a string of com
petitors. Fancy prices weie offered
for advanced positions in the line.
The man who camped on the door
step Thursday night sold his place
at the head of the line for $350
cash. The purchaser seemed ti
good .to-aere tract in Puna and is
glad of his bargain, while the early
riser is happy over his easy $100
per day.
In the whole allotment only one
person took tinder the 999 ear
lease. The right of purchase lease
was the favorite method.
