ston, S. *. Kane and Attorney-Gen.
eral Andrews, with DIR. Pratt, Score.
tary Charlock and Supt McVeigh.
Probably the most important action
of the meeting was the adoption of a
resolution putting an end to the keep
ing of useless horses and cattle at the
settlement. The lepers draw rations for
horses and cattle which are of no use
to anybody, and there appears to be no
way to stop the drain upon the set
Element funds.
The resolution or regulation intro
duced by Mr.. Andrews was seconded
by Mr.. Winston and adopted as fol-
lows:
TT shall be the duty of the Super
intendent to dispose of all superfluous,
| disabled, or diseased horses, asses, dom
keys or cattle, now at the settlement,
or which at any time shall accumulate
therein, as speedily as possible, and
the same shall not be kept at govern
ment expense"
BONDsMEN NOT SATISFACTORY.
The Board of Health refused to ac-
cept the bondsmen on Keliinoi's bond
| for the faithful performance of the
paiai contract. The secretary was in
structed to write to Mr.. Keliinoi and
tell him to either get surety bond
or bondsmen who are satisfactory to
the government. The names on the
bond were w. c. Achi, c. B. Wilson
and A. C. Dowsett.
WANTS HER HUSBAND.
Mrs. Mele Niilei petitioned to have
her husband sent to her as kokua. The
matter was referred to Supt. Mcveigh
for investigation. Mr. Winston sug-
gested that there were enough kokuas
already in the settlement and said he
was opposed to increasing the number.
The superintendent however was Of
the opinion that more workers were
needed, provided that they filled posi-
tons at the settlement.
NO SALOONS AT SETTLEMENT.
The Board also placed itself on record
as opposed to granting any saloon Ii
censes in the settlement. ]. D. Kahele,
who some time ago petitioned the
Board to allow him to open a saloon,
filed his application again through
Treasurer Kepoikai.
The application was transmitted
through Registrar Hapai, Kahele ask
ing for light wine and beer license.
All the members of the Board We're
opposed to the license or in any way
to the lepers. The secretary was in
structed to inform Treasurer Kepoikai
that the license was strongly opposed
by the Board.
In his petition to the Treasurer, Ka-
hele gave the following reasons why
his license should be issued:
l. There is a great deal of swipes in
this district which is very dangerous
to the health of those drinking the vile
liquor.
2. The swipes makers are not man
ufacturing it for their own use, but for
sale, which is contrary to the law of
the Territory of Hawaii
