The Evening Bulletin covers Hawaii politics with notes on Governor Carter's proposed educational building, support for an agricultural college, and critique of teachers' qualifications. It quotes opinions on national matters, diplomacy, and potential Territorial Convention leadership, highlighting the balance of power among island delegations and the push for capable educators.
An editorial argues Hawaii should obtain a federal endowment for a true agricultural college, not a training school. It cites Morrill and Hatch Acts, notes Hawaii's lack of a college, and urges a permanent endowment of at least 100,000 acres of public domain to support a genuine land grant institution focused on agricultural and mechanical arts.
Governor Carter says he took no action on Attorney General Andrews resignation and will let the matter rest. Local business leaders expect Andrews to withdraw, while three rumors say otherwise. The town discusses the situation amid unclear signals and incomplete official statements.
Captain Macfarlane of the La Paloma recalls a grueling voyage to Lahaina with 44 hours at sea, eleven spent tacking in light air. He compares La Paloma to Gladys, noting design changes and differing handicaps while asserting his boat’s strength in windward work. (Continues on Page 5.)
The Raedan squadron escaped to neutral ports after heavy damage and mutiny attempts. Novik and the damaged ships faced isolation, with some likely to join other fleets or be destroyed. The outcome leaves the Russian fleet in a worsened position, while Japanese censorship influences public perception of losses.
Justice Hartwell writes for unanimous Supreme Court overturning Prat Chrcait Court on the garnishment issue in the matter of Hyman Brow. W. A. Whiting represents the plaintiff and Stewart for the defendant, upholding that a judgment cannot be levied on a certificate of award and that garnishment against the territory is improper without explicit law. The opinion notes the need for legislation to resolve complex questions of garnishment and execution involving government awards and certificates and cites Freeman on Equity and regional cases.
September civil calendar lists Bank of Hawaii v Kapiolani Bette and Brown trusts v Jon Forman among cases. Disputes include promissory notes totaling thousands, mortgage foreclosures, and alleged property takings on Oahu and Waikiki Road. Cases involve J W Gaines, J M McChekney, and A M McChemey with multiple parties and monetary claims.
The case details the Wald bondholders claims under a mortgage dated 1684 and later amendments. It describes defaults on interest coupons, notices to bondholders, and requests for foreclosing on all property described in the indenture, including lands, leases, and crops, with sale proceeds to be distributed to bondholders.
The petition alleges the respondent is insolvent and neglects cultivation due to debt and lack of funds. It claims the mortgageed property is insufficient to cover the debt, notes interest by M S Grinhaim Co. Ltd, and a 1902 mortgage secures bonds totaling 89,000. A receiver is sought to take charge, an injunction to prevent disposition, and court orders for an accounting and sale of assets to satisfy bonds.
After a Republican gathering, Birbe confronted Fitch District Leader Vida over a remark about chores and a controversial speaker. Vida quietly but firmly escorted him out, warning that the speaker had involved himself with questionable men. Birbe insisted he stood by his opinion as the door closed.
