Whooping II Up.
Senator Kaohi, when Roads and
Bridges was reached, moved series
of items for improvements under that
head in Kohala. There was an cutlery
against them because they we're for re-
pairs, but they we're put to vote and
most of them carried Among the lat
ter was an item of $4,000 for a wharf at
Kawaihae.

900 for road from Kailua to join the

having been reduced from the Superin-
tendent of Public Works estimate Of

Relocating and constructing four
miles of road between Ookala and Ka-
kaiau, $4,000. was cut in two.
Waipio Beach road, $4,000, started
a promiscuous conversation. Senator
C.. Brown understood II was to COM
plete road that had to be cut partly
in the face of cliff, work on which
had stopped, for lack OF funds SEN
ator Woods had investigated this road
during his canvas. The amount esti-
mated as required was $35, 900. but he
thought the item was right as in the
bill.
Senator Paris would strike out the
word Beach" to make the item more

Senator Kalauokalani urged the pas.
sage of the item. There were a hun
dred voters in the valley. who needed
the road to get out their produce.
Senator McCandless thought Sen

had $127,00O in this bill. which seemed
pretty fair for a district that paid $72,.
