would be to abandon the electric light
plant, and that was not to be con-
sidered. He hoped that the club would
protest as a body against the sale OF
the lot and send a committee to make
their protest to the powers that be.
DIR. C. B. WOOD.
Dr. Wood compared the city of Ho-
nolulu to Hongkong. which Ii resem-
bled in location. In Hongkong a filter
system was in use on about the same
kind of a water proposition as it ham
died here. Five filter beds We're in use
there and the water passed from these
into a cement storage tank. For Ho-
nolulu this tank need not be any larger
than the one now at the head of Ala
PAL street.
There was a misrepresentation among
Honolulans as to the purity of water
filtered through sand, many thinking
that the operation was purely me-
chanical one and removing only tn
coarser impurities. leaving the neces-
sity of boiling to kill the bacteria. He
had noticed this impression prevailed
in the department of Public Works
and he wished to contradict it. The
natural sand filter removes over SO per
cent of all bacteria, not because these
cannot pass through the interstlces be-
tween the grains of sand, but because
around each grain an albuminous trap
is set by nature and the bacteria gath
cred in from the passing water There
is no dispute about this. The truth OF
it has been settled by numerous tests
and water rank with sewage and
germ infested can be made absolutely
harmless and as pure as any water can
be by this sand tll,ration. After filter
ing there IS no necessity for boiling.
As to the ACCESSIBILITY of the proposed
Nuuanu site, the Doctor was not pre-
pared 10 give an opinion. That was
matter for the engineers TO decide.
But, again comparing Honolulu with
Hongkong objection raised regarding
the supplying of the higher points OF
the city from the filtered water reser-
voir could be overcome here as there,
where from a filter at AGO feet the
water was cheaply sent to the highest
points by an hydraulic ram.
There was some expense connected
with the operation of such a
system in the cleaning of the filter. |

So far as the necessity of flterinG |

opinion.

such committee do ask for a hearing
before said officers for the purpose of
| presenting arguments in support OF
these resolutions.
This is a copy of the resolution unani-
| mously passed at the meeting of the
which was largely attended by the
representatives of the various improve
ment clubs of the city. The resolution
was introduced by L. A. Thurston, who
spoke strongly in urging its adoption,
and was seconded by c.. P. Theilen, the
secretary OF the club. In support of it,
DIR. Wood gave most convincing rea-
sons why filtration plant was a ne
cessity and answered number of
pertinent questions asked in connection
with the matter by several of those
present.
I. A. THURSTON.
Mr. Thurston said he felt very
strongly opposed to the proposed sale
OF the Queen Emma lot. In the first
place the government owned very few
eligible public building or park sites
around Honolulu and he believed that
the policy of the U. s. government in
holding on to all the land they had
acquired IN the vicinities of cities
should be followed by the Territorial
government. They should not sell any
of the public land in the city. Not long
ago the government owned neai.y all
O. ,ne ILLS. tne slopes OF Punchbow1,
part of the kalihi district and other
large tracts Now in Nuuapu valley
the government had only one parcel
besides the ten-acre Queen Emma tract.
The government ought to buy, not sell.
There ought to be park in Kakaalo,
one in Kalihi and in Makiki and before
long the government will be called on
TO buy parks and in the meantime the
price OF lands viii be going up.
Aside from this it is essential that
there should be a filtration plant. As
long ago as 1888 the matter was brought
up and a search for location made,
the Nuuanu site being chosen after two
years of exhaustive search and study. |
A plant al this point would supply 95l
per cent Of the residences in the city, |
all but those on the top of Makiki and
the highest parts OF Roundtop, and for
these separate system could be later |
installed. The filter plant must he be |
low the storage reservoir and below the |
electric light plant. There would be no
in filter if the wafer was
returned INFO a dirty reservoir, and be |
low the filter must be protected re

an epidemic | know this may sounc
like strong statement, but it is never
theless a fact
! Answering a question from the chair
Dr. Wood said that the bacteria OF
cholera and of every other infectious
disease would be eliminated in the fill
ter.
HERING'S PLAN
Mr. Thurston reminded these present
of the serious epidemic of typhoid
some years ago. in which there had
been many deaths and which at the
time had made pretty blue town out
of Honolulu. This may occur again at
any time. The necessity for the filtra-
ton plant was most urgent and if the
club would begin a propaganda to bring
the matter up in the Legislature and
have an appropriation set aside for it
it could not be doing any better work
for the city
F. S Dodge spoke briefly on the
plans of Mr.. Herring. which had includ-
ed both natural and mechanical filters,
recommending the former. The speak
er thought that a strong protest should
go in against the proposed sale of the
lot He was strongly in favor of the
government retaining the land
AS a member Of the committee on
Parks In the civic Federation League,
he had been to Mr.. Holloway's office
regarding the filter matter and had
been told. though not by Mr.. Holloway
himself that that department did not
believe in filtration. The water would
purify itself in the new reservoir by
settling. The speaker thought, how
ever. that il was in time of drouth
when the bottom waters of the reser-
voir We're being drawn on. that there
was the greatest danger to be feared.
DR. Wood said that the mud might
settle, but the germs certainly would
not.
A general discussion followed, in
which John Kidwell Senator Dickey,
General Davis and number of others
took part. after which the resolution
quoted above was introduced and car
ried without any dissent.
