VICTORIA, B. C., Sept. S.—According to news received from Honolulu by the Warrimoo, a public sale of Government lands shortly to be held there, will be pro- ductive of no small amount of trouble. The Olaa squatters, a band of settiers who have n Government land on Hawaii, have formed an association and will fight to the bitter end to retain the land they have seized. iation, which has been named American Settlers’ Association,” is | | running an advertisement in the Honolulu | papers giving notice to any who intend | d settled on by them ad that a title to n Government rlor | the land from the Ha claims to | Will be disputed by ther THe lands under dispute are recently | urveyed lands in the district of Olaa, on the island of Hawaii.

The | sale will not be held until the Washing- ton authorities can be ith. The squatters given by A -z hold that a judgment ant Attorney General Van | squatted on some rich fertile | | | communicated | | Deventer, on July 26, supports their con- tention.
