Sure" Kaiser also wanted a new road
to the homesteads.
How much would 1t cost?" asked the
Governor.
Il have no idea" said Kaiser. II am
not an engineer I am a driver"
Kaiser also told of man whose
horses had lost their front legs in COM
ing down Mud Lane He had spe-
cial wagon made for the trip but it
couldn't stand the pace.
Chas. Williams and Manager Forbes
also talked about roads. The latter
said that the people of Waipio didn't
want to come to Honokaa to get to
Waimea. Mr.. Gibbs said it was impos-
sible to build new roads out of the
current funds. Gov. Carter stated that
the six months appropriation bill could
be expended only for necessary ex-
penses of the government and that no
new roads could be built from such
fund. The six months bill provided
$4,000 for the district and this would
have to be used only for maintenance,
which would allow $4,000 for the eigh-
teen months remaining before the legis-
lature met again.
Mr.. Lidgate read a statement show
ing that in the past five years Homo
kaa had paid in s350,O0O in taxes and in
return only s97,O0 had been spent on
the roads. Gov. Carter said that the
figures We're Interesting and intructive
but that the weather man was largely
to blame for the condition of the roads
He said also that it illustrated fore
IDLY the necessity for setting aside a
fund to keep roads in repair.
Representative Fernandez also called
attention to the need of "A schoolhouse
in the Ooliala end of the district, where
he said there We're forty children who
had to go three miles to Honokaa to
school. Secretary Atkinson said that
the school was provided for in the loan
| fund but that II did no good to make
such appropriations unless n teacher
was also provided for in the regular
bill
In concluding the meeting Governor
Carter said he believed in providing
! schools in the Territory. He stated
that he believed in the women of Ha-
wall and thought that when the Ha-
waiian women We're in favor Of thing
they generally got II.
