conservative Man.

Waikiki. Feb. 12.-Hon. S. L. Kaiue,
Senator-elect from the Second Sena-
torial District, Is one of the best edu-
Gated Hawaiians of the old school, a
very conservative man. and a man pos
sessing an iron will which requires the
oratory Of a Gladstone to turn.
with these qualities he will max"
himself a power in the upper house Of
the coming Legislature of the Territory
of Hawaii and his advice and counsel
in legislative matters will be much
sought by the other members of the
Senate. Although Kaiue was elected
on the Independent ticket. his conser-
vatism will make him a safe man in
the Senate. He does not favor the ex-
treme measures that are favored or
being advocated by the other members
OF his party. He favors progress and
therefore will not seek to undermine
the good work done by the present ad-
ministration.
Kaiue has held public Offices on Maui
under the monarchy and thoroughly
understands the needs Of his constitu-
ents. He favors the establishment OF
a new government brick building for
Waikiki. the same that Is proposed for
Hilo, a building large enough to ac-
la AZ - I,,,
Maui. He realizes the utter inadequate
ness OF the present Waikiki courthouse
for the present court business. and will
therefore work in the next Legislature
for an appropriation for new court.
house for Wailuku to contain Offices
for the circuit Judge. clerk Of circuit
court, sheriff and his deputy. post Office
tax Office. superintendent Of water
works. road board district magistrate
besides comfortable quarters for the
grand and trial jurors. At present
these officials are quartered in wooden
buildings in different sections OF the
town.

ters and feels that the needs OF Mau
should be recognized. Senator Kalu,
Is also in favor of new building TO
a High school and Grammar school 70
Wailuku. The present kona storm ha
done such havoc to the present Wailuk,
utterly unsafe for the accommodation
OF the youths OF this town. The roo
is in bad state-in fact the buildin
should be condemned, and that shoul
be done soon and not to wait until cost
ly accidents occur to the lives of tn
little ones and the teachers. Mr.. Kaiu
favors removing the school grounds t
some other quarters away from tn
court house.
On several occasions when Japanes
cases were being tried in the coul
house, the sights around the coul
house have been very indecent an
very unfit for youths of tender yeaI
to behold. Such sights could not {
