house and on arriving found the upper

Harry Abbott Of Thornton Before The Eighth
District Court Today.

Harry Abbott, one OF the best known
residents and hotel Keepers In Thornton.
was before the Eighth district court In
Cranston this morning. where he was
sentenced 10 pay n fine of s6 and costs
for an assault on a seven-year-old boy.
II appears that Abbott and some OF
his friends were having a clambake on
Saturday when the lad. whose name was
Albert Gay. climbed up on the fence and
was watching proceedings. showing an
evident desire to climb over and take
a more active part IN the proceedings
than that OF n passive spectator.
Abbott IL was charged, slapped the
youngsters face. which caused him TO
fall backward from the fence. He prob
ably got pretty well bumped. but he was
able To go home and then the assault
charge was preferred and the arrest and
fine followed.

FEDERAL AID TO ROADS.

Elsewhere will be found a telegraph
ic report in part of an address de-
1ivered by Secretary Wilson before the
Good Roads Association in St. Louis.
The intimation given by the Secretary
Of Agriculture that his department. is
taking a practical interest in roadmak-
ing throughout the Union ought to be
considered of great Importance to the
Territory of Hawaii. 1t would appear
+. that the Federal Government purposes
to train men, who have had prelimin-
airy education in. engineering, for ser-
vice as directors of road construction
in the States and Territories. there be-
ing a demand for such skilled assist
anee from all over the country.
With the large appropriations for
roads annually expended in these ISL
ands. it would be a good thing for both
the roads and the revenue to have the
work done scientifically. Perhaps there
Is no other object of expenditure in Ha-
wall which has been more of a revenue
sink--swallowing UP good money after
bad as, the saying goes--than the item
of roads and bridges. One of the
chief reasons for the unsatisfactory re-
suits in this matter undoubtedly is
that. to a great extent. the money has
been entrusted. for it's expending. to
men who know little or nothing about
roadmaking. Besides. there is no doubt
that Hawaii is behind the times with
respect to equipment of modern road
making machinery. with its saving of
labor and hence of money. We have
seen and are seeing the Federal Gov
ernment's active aid in developing the
agricultural resources of the Territory.
It is through the Department of Agri-
culture at washington. too. that the
Territorial Board of Agriculture and
Forestry has obtained the services of
a trained man for. conducting the d.
vision of forestry This IS just what
the scheme announced by Secretary
Wilson. seems to have in promise for
us-to supply thoroughly trained men
for our roadmaking. There ought to
be at least one for the Territory at
