SECOND TERM
FOR GOV'R
CARTER

In an apparently inspired arti'
Gle. Mr.. Buckland's paper, Trans
Pacific Trade, states that Gov.
ernor Carter has been asked by
the President to accept a second
term, that the question of his &C
ceptance is open, and that 1t is be.
lieved the Governor would not
care to take the responsibilities o.
the Office again. This is the ar
ticle:
Discussion as to the selection
and appointment of the next Gov
ernor of the Territory of Hawaii
is always in order. 1t is a matter
OF direct interest to every resident
and OF even greater interest to
every person engaged in business.
The daily papers have given the
names of many possibilities and of
good men, but they seem to take
for granted that the possibility ex-
lists and that successor to MIR.
Carter is necessary, one paper
even intimating that the President
has already expressed a desire to
be relieved of further responsible
ity for the present Executive.
We are in a position to state
that such is not the case. We say
authoritatively that President
Roosevelt has expressed to Mr..
Carter a hope that he will succeed
himself. Should Mr.. Carter de-
eide to do so, the question of a
successor need no longer be dis
cussed. The Governor, however,
is at the present time so occupied
with the important work brought
before him by the Legislature that
he has been unable to give the
matter such consideration as its
deserves. He proba-
bly, will not do so until after the
session work has been cleaned up,
by the end OF May, when he will
have to think about the topics for
the last annual report submitted

the said districts.
The petition read in part:
Some time ago the Public Works
compelled us to number
our houses, under penalty, and named
the streets. We have no streets, how
ever, only trails. and these in such
bad condition that children cannot go
to school and men going to their
place of business have to wade to
their knees in mud. Delivery wagons
and other conveyances cannot get be- \
yond the Park In consideration of
these facts we hereby petition to have
Campbell Avenue and adjoining roads
eading off from Kapiolani Park,
graded and put in such condition that
same may be used in all kinds of
weather."
John Hodson spoke in support of the
PETITION.
PALOLOITES APPEAL
r. Kaeck. Palolo homesteader, made
m earnest plea for the boards assis-
ance in making the beautiful valley
place possible to live In. The Pa
oloites had just come through an aw-
ul experience by reason of the pro-
racted winter and If the roads were
lot fixed before next winter, Kaeck
Iidn't know however the homestead
rs were going to get along. He had
cen the GnVarnnF xVithnuf pattfnpr n |
abstraction and now, on behalf OF the
alley folk, appealed to the board as
last resort.
The chair advised Mr. Kaeck and his
eghbors to try hard to interest the
legislature on their behalf. The coun-
Y could not afford at present to spend
iore money on the valley then was
cling spent at present. The matter
vas finally passed up to the Road
ommittee.
