to become operative next September,
that all owners of lands bordering upon
public highways shall clear them of

not do SO, there shall be a committee
appointed by the town to employ men
TO do SO, and the cost shall be assessed
to the land owners This is n wise law,

highway to fields where they are not
wanted. This cleaning up may cost the
farmers some labor, but theirs will be

A GREAT SUCCESS.

KAHULUI, Sept. 29.-The new man
ner of setting passengers and their
baggage ashore all at once on a lighter
is a great success, and a vast improve
ment of the old plan of rowing them
over in boatload installments. Before
the passengers are well seated on the
lighter a second one is being loaded
with freight, and the change has very
much accelerated the dispatch which
can be given to the Claudine, as well
as being a boon to the passengers, who
disembark here.
