Kau are deeply and directly inter-
ested, but also every one on the
islands who cares to see the mile
age of our public wagon roads in

as means of easy transportation
and rapid locomotion for our own

don't see what objection could be
made to its purchase by the Gov

price, Minister Spencer, in whose
hands the business of bargaining
could have been placed, provided
an appropriation had been made,
would no doubt have refused to
pay it. The road was fairly good

that it might be improved by the
outlay of more money, still 1 doubt
