| Mr.. Robinson, after some further
discussion, said: Il believe the board
| fayors the general idea of our presi-
dent and it only remains to take the
matter up so that the Legislature will
do something"
II do not ask you to take action to-
day." Mr.. Pinkham concluded; but

NUISANCE AT MAKIKI.
Another matter taken up by the
board was presented in a petition from,
ST residents of the Makiki section, COM
planning of a stagnant pool, the result
of winter rains, standing on the Allen
estate lot, Wilder avenue, adjoining
the fire station. Petitioners said they
could not understand how the sanitary
officers. who visited their residences
and compelled them to comply with the
boards regulations. omitted to deal
with this nuisance. They asked the
president to require the owners of the
property to have the place Immediate
ly filed up and the nuisance abated.
President Pinkham. in presenting the
subject, did not think it quite fair to
hold the owners responsible, since the
cause was the location and construc-
ton of Wilder avenue across the nat
ural fall of the water. It would not
fully abate the nuisance. either. to
fill up the land. as water would &C
cumulate In the old gulch.
DR.. Wayson thought the board should
declare the pool nuisance. The onus
ought not to fall on the owners,
though, since the trouble was caused
by Wilder avenue blocking the water.
Mr. Robinson thought the only way to
prevent future trouble was for the
Government to raise the embankment
of the intercepting ditch
Mr.. Smith, as a resident assented to
the complaint Of the petition about the
pool as a mosquito breeding ground,
but the president said an investiga-
ton showed that mosquito larvae were
not exceptionally abundant there.
DR.. Wayson moved, Mr.. Robinson
seconded and it was voted that the
its existence be brought to the atten-
ton of the Department of Public
Works.
SANITARY INSPECTION.
The president submitted figures Of
sanitary inspection for December, from
which the following extracts are taken:
In Honolulu there were 1896 inspec-
tions and 1905 orders given of which
most were carried out. Buildings

taken up by the Finance Cominittee
were presented and burned.
On motion Of Mr.. Wall, the Mayor
wss requested to have the owners Of
property on Third street put their fences
back on their original lines.
The Mayor reported that the Tide
wateran Western Ra lway had agreed
10 separate the two races in its Farm
Vile waiting rooms. The Norfolk and
Western had not responded to the
Mayors request for a separation.
The Finance committee recommended
a reduction Of ten cents on the one
hundred dollars in taxes, making the
levy S. cents instead Of 95 cents.
Mr. p. II. G. Rice, Commissioner Of
Revenue, informed the council that
the town received from the income
tax only SlSS.OO, and this small amount
from only thirty-five persons, nearly
all Of whom are salried men. He also
advised the council that the city Of
Richmond levied no income tax upon
its citizens. This statement gave rise
to a motion from Major Martin that
our citizens be exempt from paying a
tax on their incomes. The motion was
unanimously carried, barring the vote
Of Mr.. Doyne, who opposed it.
Mr. W. p. Venable, cashier Of the
Planters Bank, Of Farmville, came be-
fore the council with the most COM
mendable suggestion that the town do
something in the way Of advertising
its advantages to the thousands who
will soon visit jamestown. Mr.. Ven
able said that if the council would ap-
propriate $4,000 he would raise the
same sum from the citizens. Dr. An
derson moved that the amount asked
for be appropriated and put in the
hands OF a committee, appointed by
the Mayor, to be expended TO the
towns best advantage. The motion
was unanimously carried.
