SWAY OF KAHUNAS.

I'VE have also to report to You
| Honor, that in our investigation, we
found that the power of Kahunaisn
| has held sway in Kappa to such ar
extent that the deputy sheriff of that
place and some of the force under
| him have become SO demoraliZed by its
| influence, that he and the force under
him have lent their moral support to
it's practise, that the deputy sheriff
the superior officer, has been so dere-
lict in his duty as an officer of the law
to stamp out such fatal practises stalk
ing among the homes and families in
the neighborhood.
1--WE regret, however, that the coun-
ty sheriff is powerless in the premises
to discharge any of his deputies ex-
cept by the slow, tedious and unsat-
isfactory process of impeachment as
provided by the County Act"
QUARTER CENTURY SERVICE.
The first day of March H. Kellner,
the engineer at Hanamaulu, completed
his twenty-ffth year in the employ of
Lihue Plantation, having begun his
work for that corporation in it's Hama
maulu mill 1st March, 1882.
,
President Isenberg and Manager Web
er of the. Lihue Plantation Co. went
over to Hanamaulu and on behalf of
the stockholders thanked Mr.. Kellner
for his faithful and efficient service in
the past and as a token of their APP
probation of it presented him with
check for $500.
To further mark his personal appre-
citation of Mr.. Kellner's work, Presi-
dent Isenberg had gathered thirty
three of the plantation employees to a
dinner at the Fairview Hotel Sunday,
10th March. With the aid of flowers
and palms the dining room had been
made very attractive and here the
banquet was served and further
speeches made, showing the esteem in
which Mr.. Kellner is held as well by
his employers as by his fellow workers.
Mr.. Kellner is one of the few that
can show so long and steady work in
one employ in this country, although
the Lihue plantation can show several
who have been satisfied to work for it
for good many years, AMI one, Man |
ager Christian, rounded out the twen- |
ty-five years work some years ago.
