all about the harbor is covered with
trees. There had been over the origin
al Waialua stream a foot bridge 12O
feet long. There had been handed in
requiSition for money to make this
bridge for teams. The foot bridge
was carried away in sections. One
part was stopped 500 feet from its pro-
per place and the other half was car
ried to the sea. Nearly all OF the ma
terial has been saved.
At Opeulu two 60-foot bridges are
gone, but the abutments stand and
about al the material can be used
again.
From the bridge near Halstead's
miI4 one abutment was all but taken
away, but the bridge has been made
safe and is in use.
The "Long Bridge" in the direction
of Moku.eia from Halstead's was late
ly repaired and held together in good
style. The wooden piles were a few
months ago replaced by stone abut-
ments.
On to town from Mokuleia, the
bridges are all intact and the road is
not bad. At Waiawa the water went
over the bridge.
Mr.. Rowell Will try today to make
figures on the damage. He could not
undertake last evening to say what the
necessary repair work would cost but

some lively airs, and the boys went into
the training rooms to repair their cos
tunes.
The Reds kicked off in the begin
ming of the scond half The boys on
this side showed their supremacy. They
rushed the ball down the field and had
no trouble whatever in getting the ball
out of a scrimmage. Lane, Willis and
Prince Cupid were all the time running
with the ball, while Prince David, Sin
ger and others, did a lot of the heavy
pushing work, which counted for much.
Lane then made two touch downs in
very quick succession, which piled the
score up to 20 for the Reds.
The Blues had by no means given up
the game, and they played with a great
deal Of stubbornness Soper, Woods,
Cation and Johnson, made
very good attempts, but the backs on
the other side were too heavy.
Willis picked the ball out of a scrim-
mage and made another touch down for
the Reds. This kind Of thing was get
ting to be a little monotonous. Lane
kicked goal again and the score stood

Kalihi Water Supply.

Minister Cooper as Acting Minis
ter of the Interior has given the
following answer to questions pro-
pounded by Rep. Gear, regarding
the supply OF water from the Govern
ment pipes in Kalihi:
81 beg to say that the Supsrin-
tendent of Water Works informs
me that some OF the residents at
Kalihi, are unable to obtain water
from the Government mains for
several hours during the day.
HE gives as his reason the fact
that the mains are so small and the
consequent friction so great that it
is impossible for the privilege
holders at the far end Of Kalihi to
obtain water at tines, the pressure
having been exhausted during the
regular irrigation hours by those
living nearer the city. These irriga-
ton hours are from 6 to 8 a. m, and
from 4 to pm.

A White Mans Country.

Another page has been added TO
the literature, which is to be distri-
buted by Commissioner Marsden in
his endeavors to induce "white" men
to come here and work on the coolie
plantations.
A number OF "whte" employees
have left the Oahu plantation, be-
cause they refused to be treated like
Asiatic coolies and wanted to decide
for themselves where, and what they
would eat
Some Of them called at our Office
after arriving in town and their
spokesman, Mr.. Strout, stated the
reasons why they had left the plan
tation.
They had no "kick" coming against
Mr., Ahrens, the Manager, as an en-
ployer, although they thought that
he properly might have Investigated
their grievances and listened to their
complaints, before issuing his ulti-
matum.
The men were ordered to take
their meals at the plantation board.
ing house, which is in charge of
Chinese coolie. They claim that the
food served was unfit for the use of
hardworkins white men and that no
improvement in the grub was visible
in spite of repeated "kicks" 1t is
claimed that certain employee OF
tho company gets handsome "com-
mission" from the host OF the board
ing house, and that it is in his
interest to see that the men take
their meals there, and that the food
served is as cheap as possible.
The men could not stand it any
longer, and they established a
boarding house OF their own as is
done on nearly all other plantations.
This independent and daring action
on the part of the men brought
down the wrath of the high chiefs,
who ell the sugar barons' pockets
with golden dividends, and the men
were ordered to eat the bad grub
at the official boarding house or
git" They "got."
We have not had chance to hear
the version OF Mr.. Ahrens OF this
affair, which to us who are acqusint-
ed with plantation life, sounds very
plausible.
Mr., Abreus has always been con
sidered fair and reasonable en-.
ployer, although he has the good
sense Of shaving no use for white
man" on his plantation, 1t seems
somewhat peculiar to white" men,
whose presence here as plantation
laborers is so ardently wished for
by the planters organ, that they are
not allowed to eat where they
please aad what they please. 1t
sounds peculiar to American free
men, but then they ought to remem-
Der that our plantations are mol
really intended to be worked by free
Americans, who want decent food
The Asiatic coolies have mono
poly on the estates of our absentes

Hawaii, there is only room for q
white manager on each plantation

nese slaves and a few kaaakas to

Legislators to do the bidding OF tn,

If the men at Oahu Plantation
had realized this fact they wouldn'
