Adams offered resolution requiring
the heads of the Fire Department. Gar
bage Bureau, Sheriff and Chairman Of
Road Boards to furnish an estimate
as to their wants for supplies for the
next six months. Mr.. Lucas said the
supplies for tha garbage bureau, ETC.,
were being purchased at the same rates
at which the Territory obtained them
under Its contracts. Adams said that
the county should get them a little
, cheaper. as the Territory paid by war;

concerning the needs of that district.
Lucas said he had talk with the
Superintendent of Public Works about
a road near Wahiawa, which was need
ed to be finished. The Territory had
spent a good deal of money on the
road, but a fence hadinot been erected
as had been agreed upon between the
Territory and the Oahu Sugar Co. Lu-
cas- thought the county should redeem
this promise. Archer said a meeting
of citizens was held at Eva at which,
time the new road, which he said was
mile and half longer than the old
one, was condemned. He thought lot
Of good money had been wasted on this
road.
Adam said the Ii estate should build
the fence. There was an agreement
between the Oahu Sugar Co., II estate

their lands lying on each side of the
road because the cattle on the Ii lands
would destroy the young cane.
Moore thought 1t proper If the CHAIR
man Of the Eva road board Is to be
called before the Board to talk Of the
situation. the people at wahiawa
should be given a chance also. The
road was a great benefit to the people
of Wahiawa as they could haul heavier
loads over it.
Adams said that c. A. Brown of the.
Ii estate said the Territory or County
had no jurisdiction over the road yet,
and until the fence was erected, he
would lock the gates at each end Of
the new road.
The chair ruled the whole matter
from discussion on the ground that the
county had no jurisdiction over the
road.
j. c. Cohen called attention to the
fact that the Portland Fair wanted
the Hawaiian band. The county would
be relieved from the expense Of main
tenance during such time as the band
is absent, which would be about two
months.
Moore thought it would be good ad-
vertisement for the band to visit the
Fair, and he moved the request be
granted.
Cohen said If the band went, it
would leave on August 8.
IT would hate to see the band go
away and not come back again. said
Adams.
Moore moved that the band be given
two months leave of absence, without
pay. Passed. The band will be re-
employed on its return.
1t was reported by Sam Johnson that
the Supt. of Public Works stated
that the prisoners formerly working in
quarries have been put on territorial
work altogether, and the county would
have to employ men to work in the
quarries.
Adams thought it would be well to
not use prisoners for such work, but
that citizens be employed. The chair
agreed with him. The sense of the SUI
pervisors was that the road supervisor
employ citizens in quarry work.
The Board adjourned to Thursday
evening, July 20.
