NORTH KONA Is
PROVIDED FOR
The Residents Were Late in Asking,
But Their Interests Are Be-
ing Looked After.

Minister Young yesterday reported
to the Council of State upon the petit
ton of residents of North Kona for ap-
preparations for repairing roads as fol-
lows:
To the President and Council of State
Upon the petition from residents of
North Kona, Hawaii, asking for sun
dry appropriations for roads and for
Kailua wharf in that district, and re-
ferred to me, l would respectfully re-
port as follows:
1. The road from Huihui to
South Kohala ...... $40, 900
There is an item in the appropriation
(Loan) for North Kona, of $4,000 for
this purpose, this did not contemplate
widening the road beyond the present
width of twelve feet. 1t is important
to extend the road and make the con-
nection first, If then it is desirable to
widen 1t, the Legislature which will
undoubtedly meet within a year can be
asked for the necessary amount.
2. The widening of the upper
road between Huihui
and South Kona. SIS, 900
1t is not urgently necessary to widen
the road, except in the sections large
ly used say, from Kailua to South Ko-
ma. A sum of $4,000 (Current) has been
asked, in addition to the $4,000 in the
appropriation bill of 1898. In asking
for this, it was not the intention to
do a large amount of widening but
rather to keep the present road in good
repair.
3. Road from Kailua to Ho-
lualoa .............$ 5,OOO
No special provision has been made
for this, but the branch road from Ke-
auhou road to Kailua for which $1,000
is asked Ooan) will greatly relieve the
traffic of the Holualoa road.
4. The Kalua Honokahau
| road ...............S 3,OOO
No special provision has been made
for this branch.
5. Road between Kailua and
| hanaluu ..........-.S f,VVt
This road Is provided for in the Loan
| Appropriation and included in the 1885,
900 asked for that district.
6. Road from Kahaluu to the
Mauka Homestead ...s15, 00(
This item is partially provided fol
CSC ,0O0) in the Loan Appropriation fol
this district.
z. Kailua wharf $40 ,00t
This extension has not been provided
for. The $1,000, landing and buoys
Hawaii, (Current), was intended to in
clude the enlargement of the Kailus
wharf, but not to the extent of making
1t available for anything but boats.
In consideration of the large amounts
already inserted in the Appropriation
Bill for roads in North Kona, and the
prospects in the near future for Legis
lative session, would recommend tina
the items at present in the Appropria
ton Bill and partly covering the items
as asked in the petition, be not in
creased.
Respectfully submitted,
ALEX. YOUNG,
Minister of the Interior.

the doctors told me there was no relief
for my trouble. Finally l tried Lydia

Rope Walking at Niagara.

The man who wanted to walk
across Niagara Falls on a rope was
wisely restrained by the authori-
ties. Probably he is thankful
that such was the case. Death
comes soon enough. Take the in
roads Of disease for example.
Common ailments like constipa-
ton, dyspepsia, biliousness, mala-
ria and nervousness, do much to
shorten life. There is a medicine
that will cure these, if taken faith
fully, and that is Hbstetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. Set the stomach
right, and good health is sure to
follow. This peerless remedy has
a record Of over fifty years of cures
to back it up. When in need Of a
medicine Of this kind, get the old
reliable Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, with a Private Revenue
Stamp over the neck of the bottle.

Backache and Womb
Troubles Succumb to
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound.

II have been for ten years an in
valid with female weakness, and the
torture and pain I suffered no tongue
can tell. I neve spent one week in
the ten years that I was free from
pain. My trouble was Inflammation
and congestion of womb. When 1
commenced to take your remedy 1 had
been belfast for some time under the
treatment of two of the best physi-
clans in Illinois without receiving any
benefit. You can imagine the benefit
derived from Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-

have gained forty pounds and am well

"For a number of years I was
troubled with backache and leucor-

able that 1 could not attend to my
work or studies. The least effort
would completely exhaust me. Physi-
clans failed to help me. Ifelt that my
youth was blighted, and the life before
me would be one of suffering and
misery. Then a friend insisted on me
taking your medicine. Before I had
used one bottle I was greatly relieved.

81 had been in poor health for
twenty years, having Inflammation of
ovaries and womb trouble. Although
treated by physicians, I could not gain
strength o do my work, and was so
low-spirited and tired of life. A friend
advised me to take Lydia E. Pink

bottle strengthened me, and l wrote
to you. After taking six bottles a say
that I Am we'll and can even do my own
washing."-MRs M. W. MILLER, No.

such pain in my back and head, and at
times was unable to walk. Had sew

much good. One doctor said that I
would have to have an operation and
have the ovary removed. 1 became
discouraged and gave up all hopes of
getting well. I began taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

her directions faithfully, and am bet

A
W0MA s
MISTAKE

It is q well-known fact that Lydis
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has cured more women than any other
remedy. 1t therefore must be the
best possible medicine for female ills.
But some women make the mistake
of thinking that they will try some
thing else, simply because it is new.
That mistake is often q fatal one
fatal to the health and happiness of
the experimenter.
Is it not foolish to risk the possible
results of such experiments? Is it not
better to depend upon a medicine
which has been tried successfully for
thirty years, and which has never
been found wanting? Do not therefore
let any one persuade you to try some
thing which they say is just as good.
1t cannot be just az good. Mrs. Pink
hams Compound is the best. and there
can be only one best. This is not a
mere assertion, but is a positive fact,
admitted by hundreds of regular
physicians.
Rely on your own common sense,
and Mrs. Pinkham's lifelong expert
ence, and you will make no mistake.
Don't experiment with your health,
but take q medicine that you kn0w is
good, and is backed by such letters as
these to Mrs, Pinkham:

IRISH CHEER

LONDON, Feb. 8.-John Redmond,
chairman Of the United Irish party, was
loudly cheered by all sections Of the
Irish members when he rose in the house
OF commons to nov an amendment to
the address in reply to the speech from
the throne, representing the time had
arrived to bring the wal to q conclusion
on the basis Of recognizing the independ-
ence Of the Transvaal and the Orange
Free State. He said the Irish party
abhorred this war and intended, SO far
as possible, to maintain the independ-
ence of the republics, defended with
such heroism.
Mr.. Redmond admitted that when the
empire was involved in complications a
feeling of hope and satisfaction stirred
the majority Of the Irish at home and
abroad. But, he continued, the sym
pathies of the Irish would still have
been pro-Boer even if England had not
beer concerned and another power had
attempted to ''act the bully and op.
pressor in South Africa"

tinuous elections, requiring stand
ing election boards, and foisting
upon the people a never-ending
political campaign.
1t is a matter of surprise, how
ever, that the Herald editor, in
order to make it appear that there
is a necessity for a change in our
system Of government, should in
dulge in reckless accusations
against our officials. In a general
way and wholly unsupported by
anything like positive evidence,
MI. Winship charges them with
corruption. It is assumed by the
Herald man that every member
Of the legislature sells his vote;
that he goes there for that pur-
pose and that, under u system, it
is expected of him. In other
words, Winship sets up his men
of straw and then proceeds with
his old blunderbus to shoot them
full of holes. If Mr. Winship has
any evidence of corruption against
individual members Of the legis-
lature or against other state Off
GERS, as the self : constituted
guardian of the peoples cause, he
should make. specific charges, so
that the wrong-doers may be
brought to justice. We have a
splendid judiciary system, and our
%juries are drawn from the body of
the people. Surely Mr.. Winship
cannot be afraid of the courts.
