NEW IDEAS
FOR COUNTY
Maui Supervisors Hold
DiscussIOn--SOCiaI
Events, Etc.

MAUI, December 21.-On Saturday
| last the Maui Board of Supervisors,
Messrs. Henning, Church. Myers, Reu-
| ter and CornweIl, held a days session
at their Waikiki offices to satisfy the
| law requiring them to pass an annual
| budget estimating county expenses for
| the coming year.
! This estimate is necessarily a rough
one and most general in its scope. The
estimated annual revenue to be ex-
/ pended by the supervisors is about
! S125 900, and of this they apportioned
| about $4,000 for running expenses and
| the balance, about $4,000, for public
| improvements.
All the other county officials were
| present, at this meeting, as wei; as
some Waikiki citizens, and there was
a general discussion as to changes
and amendments to the county act.
Nothing definite was decided upon,
though all suggestions made were put
| into writing for future consideration.
| For example, it was suggested that the
county purchase the Waikiki and La
haina water works from which it is
stated quite a revenue might be de-
rived. 1t was also suggested that
poundmasters should be appointed by
the Supervisors and that all revenue
| from licenses issued within the county
should be collected by county officials
TO be used for the benefit of the
county.
If anything at all was to be done
in the coming legislature in regard to
county control of schools, it was men
toned that a law be passed requiring
the Governor to appoint county school
boards which should be subject to pres
ent regulations of the Commissioners
of Public Instruction. etc.
| One of the supervisors thought 1t
would be advisable, at some future
time. to make definite recommends
tions directly to the Republican County
Committee and through them to infiu-
ence Republican members of the 1907
legislature.

The Boat Line Project.

Since the Hepburn bill was passed
putting a stop to reba'es Kansas City
has no redress against excessive
freight rates except by reestablishiug
river traffic. This fact gives the
greatest assurance we have Of the
permanance Of the thing. There can
be no doubt of the earnestness Of the
business men OF Kansas City, the
wholesalers, In this matter. The
enterprise has been entrusted to
strong hands, giving assurance OF a
serious and determined purpose.
The testimony Of the pilots who
have made the trip between St.
Louis and Kansas City recently is that
the river channel is in better condi-
tion than II has been for thirty years,
owing largely to the clearing away OF
the timber that used to line the banks.
When the present snags have been
removed there will be little further
use for snag boats. The needed i'm
provements Of the channel are almost
wholly 10 the interest OF towns where
sandbars have been made at the plact
Of unused landings So far as th'
passage Of boats is concerned no i'm
provement Of the channel is required
While the enterprise is designed
primarily for the benefit Of Kansa
City, the smaller river towns mus
also be benefited by the boat line
They ought to seek to be benefitte'
by 1T, to encourage it In every wa
po sible, contributing their share t
J its success.
