The main road that runs through the district
by Napoopoo is well located. and the most conve-
nirnt one for hauling our stuff TO and from heaIa-
krkla Bav. A. there has been nothing done to 1t
for the last two or three years. it i getting almost
impossible for a horse. and much more SO for a
team. To be sure there Is a branch from the main
road down 10 haawaloa. on the north side OF the
BAY. that has always been kept in repair by private
individuals until the last year that the late Capt.
Cummings was road supervisor but the carTIng Is
not confined to the north side of the Bay.
Why wil'not this government. as mos; others,
allow each district to choose and elect its own
road supervisor, and keep their roads IN repair
so that they can get over them with a team? l am
sure if South Kona had an active supervisor,
the road to the Bay would be kept in repair, so
that we could do our carting from Napoopoo, as
formerly, instead of having TO pack it on animals.
And l wish to ask. by what authority does our
road supervisor undertake to make a new road
through private property. and without the consent
or knowledge Of the owners? Is there any law
or order from the government to Justify him in
such an act: If not, the sooner be is removed, the
| will say nothing more at present. but refer you
to the Hon. C. T. Hart who is now in Honolulu. or

have said. Yours. &c. koNA.

II VII be noticed that Dur ezports Iast year

1t will be noticed that our exports last year
very nearly balanced our imports. and when we
take into consideration the reduced valuation of
nearly all our produce, and the increased cost of
many of the foreign goods, particularly those
from the United States. some of which enter
under the inflated American currency. it must
be admitted that the balance is really in our
favor-that is the gold value of our exports has
exceeded the gold value of the imports.
If all invoices from America were made out in
gold valuation instead of the inflated currency,
it seems to US that it would be the more proper
system to adopt, and certainly it is the only cor
rect one. For instance, an invoice of cotton
goods, valued in American currency in October
at ! ,45O, is offered at the Custom house, with
no certificate showing the premium on gold, and
enters at that value, while it cost the purchaser
only $1,000 in gold. 1t is true, the Government
is benefited by the oversight of the shipper to
the amount of $45 on that invoice, but stilrit is
not a fair transaction to exact ten per cent. duty
on this inflated cost, while it exhibits our i'm
ports with an unfair valuation. For this reason
the Collector as well as merchants should insist
on all invoices being maze out in gold valuation,
as is done in the trade between New York and
Europe.

1t will be noticed that our trade with the
United States shows steady increase, and that
We now import from thence nearly nine hundred
thousand dollars worth of goods. With Bremen
and England the table shows a small falling off
while with Vancouyer's Island there is an in
crease.
The statistics of the Collector DO not inform us
what foreign countries are our customers. We
would suggest that a table, giving this feature
of our trade. would be a valuable addition to the
annual statistics. 1t would show. we think,
that the United States and Bremen are the prin-
cipal ones, and that the former takes more than
three-fourths of our exports.
The Custom-house receipts show a fair in
crease over the previous year of about II per
cent. The Collectors statement of the sources
of the public revenue in his department are
