COUNTY SURVEYORShlP.

Nominations which seem to be minor
now may appear major when they
come out in the wash. Among these
is the nomination for County surveyor,
a post to which Robert Boyd, VINO
never surveyed anything much besides
an office appears as the only aspirant'
One can hardly account for Boyd 5
eagerness to get $50 per month billet
until the section of the County Act
defining the duties and emoluments OF
the surveyorship has been examined.
According TO the law the County
Surveyor shall be ex ofiicio deputy
County Recorder FOR such purposes AT
THE COST OF THE PARTY FILING
THE SAME FOR RECORD.
This refers to maps, traces, copies
etc, to be filed. There is no limit to
the "cost" to the party filing, nor Is
there anything in the duties of SUI
pervisors" whereby they can limit the
cost" nor that the fees or cost shal
go to anybody but the County Sur
veyor.
In the hands of a CRATER the County
Surveyorship would be worth at least
$4,000 per year; and If the CRATER hap
pened TO be incompetent professionally
he would do twice that amount Of
damage through faulty surveying.

The Department of Public Works will

The conduct of j. W. Springstrom,

C. r. auckland, acting registrar of

ten per cent of the number. Some

not care for the bother again..
Co. F, with Captain Sam Johnson at
it's head, made a proud appearance,
maching with the steadiness of veter-

across shoulders gave a picturesque
touch of color to the column. The
band played in front on the march.
Superintendent Cooper on his Maui
tour approved the plans for a wharf

vice of Captain Clark of Wilder's

BOUNTY NOT THE THING.

There Is renewed talk about asking
Congress to grant a bounty on coffee.
The need of public aid for this indus
try, both here and in Porto Rico Is
plain, but the Advertiser does not
agree with many of its friends in the
belief that a bounty would answer the
purpose.
Bounties are not necessarily perma-
nent. One Congress may grant them
and the next take them away. Inc
fate of the American sugar bounty IN
the interests of "a free breakfast
table" is in point. This journal, much
as IL desires to see small farming, es-
pecially coffee farming, prosper, could
not advise any one to invest money
in coffee growing enterprises the re-
turns from which would depend on the
Willingness of Congress to keep on
paying a bonus. Investments should
rest on a safer foundation than that.
Tariff changes have more of per-
manercy. The wise thing to do, in
our opinion, would be to ask Congress
to exclude all low-grade coffees from
the list of imports just as is now done
with low-grade teas. If Congress
would do that, then Hawaiian high
grade coffee would find a ready and
lucrative market and its culture would
spread accordingly. In course of time
a successful appeal might be made for
general protection.

NOlSELESS MILK.

"Why do milkmen make so much
noise at night?' is a question which
comes to the Advertiser on postal
card "Why do they rattle cans, slam
gates, jam milk pals and shout at their
horses when they drive away? Is 1t
necessary for a customer to have ms
sleep interrupted nightly for the sake
of a quart of milk in the morning.
One might put the question to a
milkman without getting a precise an
swer. The truth probably is that the
milkman. like any other honest tres
passer on private grounds after mid
night, does not want to be mistaken for
a burglar. BY tiptoeing about he
would take that risk So he rattles
cheerfully along to let the neighborhood
know that 1t is only the milkman-
and please don't shoot.
Try going across your neighbours
lawn some morning about two o'clock
and see If it isn't your inclination to
whistle. That is, assuming that you

EASY LAND CLEARING.

In dealing with weeds and Hilo grass
the farmers of Hawaii, the number of
whom is slowly increasing, need to APP
ply more modern methods than plow-
ing and hand-plucking. Science is all
the while making common tasks easier
and now that it has taken hold of the
weed question, there is hope for the
reclamation of a great deal of land
which is given over, especially in the
tropics, to rank vegetation.
The newest way of clearing land of
weeds-and burrowing insects as well
- thus described in that ancient and
admirable weekly paper, the Saturday
Evening Post:
A farm implement resembling a har-
row in outward appearance may be
used as part of the outfit. 1t is de-
signed to have tubes of steel take the
place of the harrow teeth. Pliable
steam hose similar to that in use in
the air brake system of railway trains,
will run from traction engine to con-
meet with a central steam reservoir on
the harrow, and, thence radiating to
the harrow tubes, will discharge into
them boiling water and steam under
from eighty to ninety-tive pounds pres

A REJUvENATED CONSPIRACY.

AS the time for changing Governors
approaches, the Bulletin resumes Its
critical attitude towards the cores
pondence of the Associated Press and
of the coast newspapers. The public
will remember how, when the i'll
starred Sewall was running for Gov
ernor, he and the Bulletin made a
really desperate effort, for them, to get
hold of the facilities of news cores
pondence. They especially wanted to
control the Associated Press in Sewall $
interest. Then as now, TRADES were
locally printed against the correspond
ents. and Sewall went to San Francis
co to make personal efforts to nave
those gentlemen supplanted by stlpen-
diaries of his own who, even If they
could not write intelligently, would at
least advertise Sewall in their hating
way and defame his rivals.
The scheme failed them as 1t VIII
fail now. Nothing would suit the dis
solving remnant known as the Bull
letin crowd better than to fill the
American papers with their political
inventions about Secretary Carter ana
their amusing fables about any favorite
they might have in the gubernatorial
field. 1t is highly significant of what
might have been expected that the
Bulletin should have lately complained
that the important endorsement OF
the Superintendent of Public Works
by Theresa, the Solid Thirteen and the
Home Rulers, etc. in the late malodor-
Gus Legislature was not spread before
the delighted and eager eyes OF the
American people in the Associated
Press dispatches. Actually this alb
. rbing piece of intelligence was left
out. How fine it would have been to
print such n cablegram coupled with
the further item that Theresa and her
luau following had also in hand reso-
luton of want of confidence in Secre-
tary Carter. Wouldn't that have been
good reading for Washington? And to
think that the neglectful correspond
ents should have omitted 1t to make
room for murder or an action in dls-
barment! To what dull impotence has
Honolulu journalism fallen in these
newsy days.
Really the Associated Press should
brace up and take a Bulletin service.
But It won't. Somehow II prefers the
truth about events in Hawaii to the
chance. so freely offered 1t, to do
