half done, and so on.

Fort street, lanes in Niulapa, wyllie
street, Liliha street, all the cross streets
running into Liliha street the rest of
| Judd street, over to the HILL" Puma
hou road, and -
BY this time Lucas was I'm funk.

| one or two streets at least"
We'll, you've scattered your shot
pretty widely already" said Lucas.
Lucas wanted to keep gang work.
ing steadily in Hakaako for the whole
of September. He wanted to oil Emma
and Alakea streets.
Don't oil 1t as they did Nuuanu
street" suggested Moore.
Lucas said Kekaulike street near the
Fish Market needed attention.
Queen and Hotel streets are to be
completed at once. So will Kekaulike
| and half of Fort street mauka. Then
comes Pauoa road and Niulapa. Ku-
kui street between Nuuanu and Fort
street is matter for further reference.
Moore said wagons were hauling Ma
kilu quarry stone to Kukui street and
each wagon was hauling but three
loads. He said also that the wagons
were working but seven hours. He and
Mr.. Archer had noticed this.
A resolution appointing Sol. Maize
Iona deputy auditor and clerk at a
salary of 800 per month, under a $4,000
bond, was presented by Lucas, and
passed.
resolution was presented by Lucas
appropriating 5000 for an incidental
fund for the County Attorney. Allow
ed.
Lucas called attention to section S97,
was held by grant to Liholihi isueds
to be given to the city gratis.
The chair thought there was an Afri-
can In that section. The chair did NOT
think the conditions were such that
the county could get the lamps. Then
came the question:
What is n lamp post?"
Deputy Attorney Milverton said Il
was any sort OF a post, vertical or
horizontal, upon which lamp project
ed into the street. II any such lamp
could be found now, then possibly the
Gas Company might be required 20
furnish the lamps which 1t agreed to by
the terms of the franchise.
Adams gave notice that he would in
troduce an ordinance concerning dig
ging up of streets for laying of gas,
water pipes, etc.
Moore's ordinance In re laundering of
clothing, was read by title and passed
its first reading.
Adams suggested raising the monthly |
rate for removing garbage from TWEEN |
ty-five to fifty cents I'm order to make I
the department self sustaining, and
Moore said If everybody in town paid !
1t would be sef-sustaining Adams
thought some of the county clerks when ,
not busy otherwise might go out and |
drum up business, as II was necessary
to send out nice, dapper-loolSing young
men. Moore had ascertained that many
people used the service and paid moth
ing.
The old Road Board controversy was
again brought up for discussion, the
chair announcing that under the opin- /
ion OF the County Attorney the boards !
had no existence.
Archer thought the Supervisors, as
elected, could look after their districts.
He felt that as he had been elected
by the people, they had confidence in
him, and he thought he could look after
its needs. He thought the County
Board could appoint a road overseer
under the supervision of tine Superyis-
ors of each district.
Moore moved that 1t be the sense of
the County Board that the Road Boards
do not exist. The chair thought that
would not be necessary.
Moore then moved that the County
Board appoint a road overseer for each
district outside Honolulu, each to be
under the supervision OF the District
supervisor. Seconded by Cox Passed
overseers were appoint
ed as follows:
Ewa-Geo. Nawakoa, 800 per month.
Waialua - Chas. Kukea, $50 per
Koolauloa-J. H. Keanu, $50 per
Koolaupoko-Sol. Peck, $50 per month.
The bond of each overseer was fixed
1t $1,000.
The Board of Fire Commissioners
lext came up. Moore put in nomina-
ion Tommy Lucas. The chair said
here was no longer a Board of Fire
Lucas said that he I'M
ierstood the Governor intended reap
vomiting the board.
The chair said he saw no necessity
