OUR WATERWAYSIClTY HALL SITE
Mayor West Refuses to
Sign Deed TO City Lot
to X. ZelaskO.

After several months of negotiation for
a site for a city hall, the city council, by
unanimous vote, agreed to sell the q
street property to X. Zelasko for s., 425,
and to purchase two lots on the northeast
corner of l and Market, for SO, 400, and
authorized the mayor 10 sign the convey
ance to the G street lot, and ALMOST
everybody believed the matter was
closed.
Not so, however. The deed to Zelasko
was prepared by the city attorney. and
that gentleman made tender OF the
balance due on the purchase-he having
already paid 500, which was accepted
by the city-but Mayor West declined to
sign the deed, giving as his reason that
he wished to give the opponents OF the
measure one more chance to protest.
The action of the mayor lacks the bust.
ness element that usually characterizes
his actions, and has an appearance of
childish petulance. The matter has been
before the council for months, and dur
ing all its discussion no objection to the
sale OF this lot has been offered by the
mayor. With full authority, the com.
mttee advertised the lot for sale, and
the council unanimously concurred in
the recommendation OF the committee
to accept the bid OF Mr.. Zelasko, and the
city has accepted 800 as part payment.
To refuse to perform the merely clerical
act OF signing the deed does not, as we
said before, agree with the customary
business perception of Mayor West.

About 800 people witnessed a splendid
game Of base ball at Athletic park yester-
day afternoon, between the Aberdeen

OF the southwest league. Both teams
were in the pink Of condition, and put
up a game that kept the fans busy, not.
withstanding the heat Of the day.
Emerson, the new pitcher for Ho.
quiam, developed excellent ball tossing
powers, and his twisters were struck but
five times in the game. Galaski, in the
Aberdeen box, proved himself again the
right man in the right place, and only
permitted tour touches. Taken as a
whole. the game was considered the best
ever played on that ground.
Following is the official score.

MOSQUITOES.

Eternal vigilance is not only the price
of liberty but of relief from the mos
quito scourge.g Within the last week or
two some increase in the number of
mosquitoes has been noticed, not a very
marked one, but enough to tell against
the maximum of comfort. 1t was
surrlised that people We're getting
careless, SO no surprise was felt when
the inspector in his rounds came upon
scores of empty containers, each of
them holding larvae-infested water
Each householder in this town, with
very few exceptions, must blame him
self for the mosquitoes that annoy him.
The exceptions are those who live near
ponds or pools, belonging to other peo-
pie, which are not supplied with
fish. Larvae are food that fish are
eager to get and as a, result none can
now be found even in such an other
wise "likely'' place as the Annex lily
pond. But there are plenty of other
ponds from which fish have been re-

are propagating in swarms
As to circumstances within the con-
troll of a householder if he will conform
to the rule that no water should be
left standing anywhere on his prem
ises, unless in screen-proteeted tanks,
he will be safe from the MOSQUITO
scourge and help to protect the city
from it. He should remember that the
water in the little pans in which the
legs of kitchen tables stand will breed
the singing insects; that broken bot
tie thrown into the yard may prove to
be nursery of pests; that a stand pipe

aquarium room to keep replenished a
whole swarm of the culicidae. One
cannot be careful about standing water
in any form; and such care is paid for
in comfort and freedom from the dis
eases of which the mosquito is an in
oculating source.

FORESTRY RESERVES.

| The action of the Board OF Agricul-
ture and Forestry in making definite
| recommendation for a comprehensive
forestry reserve for the entire District
| of Hilo. is a move in the right direc-
| ton. The Board has appeared to be
slow in getting at this particular feat
ure of its work: but it must be remem-
bered that superintendent of Forestry
Hosmer only arrived here from Wash
ington about January LIST last: and
that since that date he has been trav-
cling throughout the entire group,
studying conditions as a whole and in
detail. Although the recommendation
for the Hilo reserve is the first to be
made, a large amount of data has been
accumulated concerning other reserves.
which will doubtless be crystalized in
to action at an early date.
The next step will be to have pre-
pared a description of the boundary
line proposed, so that it can be identi-
fed
The Governor viii then advertise a
time and place for a meeting at which
any one interested may present argu-
ments for and against the proposed
line
After this meeting the Governor is
to set aside the proposed
reserve, either as originally designed
or as modified in consequence of the
views expressed at the meeting. as a
permanent forestry reserve, which can

poses by act of the legislature
Private lands within the reserve can
be made over to the Government either
or for a term of years,
as part of the reserve, and are free

There are quite number of private
lands within the proposed Hilo reserve,
and it is understood that MOST if not
all of the owners are quite willing to
cooperate with the Board of Forestry
n making forestry reserves of them.
The Board and the Territory are to
De congratulated upon the forward
step taken in establishing permanent

a Bug In the Throat.

ST. PAUL. Mimi, Aug 1.-THE med
zeal profession of st. Paul and Mime
apolis is wrestling with a brand-new
bug. Doctors have been within the last
six weeks called on to combat an cpl
demic that displayed, in its original
symptoms, all the characteristics of
diphtheria. On examination it has been
shown that the bacillus of diphtheria
did not exist in the Threats of the pa
tients, and that instead there was a
v:rulent-looking bug, described by.bac-
teriologists as a spirilium.
Plainly speaking, it is a curly bug,
instead of a straight one. Tests made at
the university indicate that Minneapo-
lis and st. Paul, as well as adjacent
towns, are in the throes of a more or
less severe epidemic of a disease known
as t'Vincent's enigma" 1t is described
as a form of pseudo-diphtheria form
ing a membrane in the throat almost
exactly like that developed in true
diphtheria, but leaving none of the i'll
effects that so frequently ensue from
this disease. The duration of the dis
ease is from five to fifteen days.
1t is seldom if ever fatal, but its
in its early stuges to diph-
liberia often leads to an unnecessary
quarantine and application of anti
toxin

THE PRESIDENTIAL TERRA,

This paper is not in sympathy with
the movement, which is seeking local
support, to reduce the tenure of Office
by the President to one term of six
years.
If the President is a bad man six
years is too long a term for him. On
the other hand if he is a good man that
period is not long enough. Six years
of an Andrew Johnson would stagger
the country while eight years of an
Abraham Lincoln would be none too
much.
As for the bad effect upon business
OF Presidential campaigns it could be
minimized by reducing their length
from four or five months to two.

Mr. Hillyers Burglar Alarm.-Mr.
Hillyer was heavy sleeper He was a
man, also, with a chronic fear of bur
lars. 1t was these two things that led him
to have the window of his sleeping
room equipped with a burglar alarm
of the latest and most approved de-
scription.
A few mornings after the divice had
been installed he came. down to break
fast with a grin on his face.
Il had a funny dream last night" he
said. 1 dreamed that a burglar raised
my window and the alarm went off,
but he didn't seem to mind it. He rum
mayed the bureau drawers, found my
watch and pocketbeok. and slipped out
the way he came in. BY the way he
added" Il forgot to bring down my
watch and pocketbook. I'll go and get
them''
He wens upstairs and returned in a
moment with an entirely different look
on his face The watch and the pocket
book We're gone. 1t had not been

FOR HARBOR
IMPROVE MENT

The removal by the government of
the spit of land on which the harbor
light now stands is sought by Governor
Carter. He has addressed a letter to
Secretary Taft asking that Lieut.. Slat-
terry be authorized to make plans for
the work so that they may be submit
ted to the next Congress. When the
new Territorial docks are built at the
foot of Alakea street there will not be
room for the big liners to turn around
between the pierhead and the light
house. If the government does not
take I'D the work at once the docks
will not be built to their full length
until the federal authorities are able
TO do their share of the work of har-
Dor Improvement There are many ru-
mors in the States to the effect that
the harbor is filing up. This is in no
sense true. The work asked is only
for improvement demanded by the in
creasing draught of the vessels calling
at this port.
