Broaden Call for Fire
Alarm Bids
McLeran Admits Necessity Of
so Mountaineering
Devices

Supervisor McLeran outlined his po-
controversy and the stand he would
take next Monday in regard to the
mayors veto of the boards action in
rejecting the specifications of the cleo
tricity commission calling for bids on
$4,000 worth of mountaineering boxes.
In letter sent to many merchants,
property owners and Improvement clubs
interested in improving the fire service
McLeran agreed to the pressing neces-
sity for more boxes and stated his COM
mittee would do the best in its ability
consistent with the faithful observ-
ance of the law to remedy the present
conditions
McLeran said:
hre alarm boxes for the use of the department OF
electricity was referred by the supervisors to
the electricity committee. of which l am the
chairman. The matter, WAS given immediate at
tention and many hearings had. at which
appeared the commissioners OF the department OF
electricity and also representatives Of the Mer-
chanls association and representatives OF the
San Francisco labor council > 1t was finally de-
cided- after repeated conferences, that 81, 800
sncuid be provided by the supervisors for the
completion OF boxes by the mechanics employed
by the department Of electricity. and that the
sum OK $4,000 should be provided for the pur-
chase OF 30 positive mountaineering successive fire
alarm boxes of the best make These appropria-
tons were available from and after March 90
1900
No trouble has been experienced with the ex-
penditure of the 81. 500. but when the question
of calling for bids for the purchase OF the posi-
tiye mountaineering boxes was referred to the
board OF supervisors by the department OF cleo
trfcity 1t was discovered by committee that
the specifications so framed to inhibit
any other bidder from bidding but the Gamewel
fire alarm company. Inasmuch specifications
so drawn and framed absolutely forbid competi-
tive bidding, which is contrary both to the spirit
and letter of the charter the electricity COM
mittee decided to recommend more general
specihca tion, which would permit not alone the
Gamewell fire alarm company TO bid. but any
other company which had a positive nonnterfer-
ing successive FIRE alarm box
1t Is entirely within the province of the board
or supervisors to award the contract to the most
responsible bidder. and committee at least
will certainly be guided in its action when bids
are received by the recommendations of the
commissioners OF the department OF electricity,
but we feel that not, in view OF oa tn
of office. be made party TO such a fragrant
we submitted specifications designed solely in
the interest OF the Gamewell fire alarm company.
As You are probably aware. his honor the
mayor vetoed a resolution directing the clerk of
the supervisors to advertise for proposals in ac-
cordance with specifications prepared by the cleo
tricity committee. and this veto. together with
the resolution. will be considered by the elec-
tricity committee meeting in this office. 40 Eddy

The way is now open for the
immediate construction of wharf
of modern facilities for the dis
charge of vessels mp to twelve thou
sand tons.
AS the Legislature failed to APP
propriate any funds for the build
ing of a wharf at Kahului private
parties of all classes should do
every thing possible to encourage
private enterprise there which has
been done to such great extent
bv Honorable II. Z. Baldwin.
Those of our citizens who hold
public office should recognize the
improved shipping facilities that
the only port of Maui now enjoys
as result of public spirited citi-
zens who have done so much for
the deepening and otherwise i'm
proving our harbor.

Finishes Grinding with Ban
ner Crop.

On Friday of this week the Wal

its grinding for the season with an
out put of II 500 tons Of sugar or
! 800 above the estimate of the
company.
While the year has been a most
favorable one in every respect it is
said by those who know that The
large crop is in great measure
due 10 the fact that last year
Manager Penhallow shut down the
mill on two occasions and used the
water that was being used for the
mill to irrigate the cane when it
absolutely required it. Will Mr..
Penhallow was severely criticised
at the time for his action it has
been demonstrated that his action
was most wise forethought,
All Of the sugar for the season
will be bagged within week and
the season closed.

Stars Win Fourth Game
this Season.

The Morning Stars whitewashed
the Healanis last Sunday afternoon
at Wells Park and scored > runs.
As will he seen in the summary OF
the games the Healanis did not get
a single basehit off Upton.
Billy Bailey, the crack shortstop
of the Stars failed to return from
Honolulu bv last Saturdays Clau-
dine, and Geo. Cummings, the
veteran ball player, took his place
and did some fine work.
Henry Walker played center for
the Stars Sunday. He made his
first error this season by letting a
pop-hy bounce off his nit.
DR.. St. Sure, the manger uf the
Healanis, in an interview had the
following to say: 81 certainly did
expect my team to do better than
they did Sunday. | was surprized
at the result of the game. The
Stars battery of Meyers and Up
ton had my boys guessing all
along Whenever they would hit
Upton it would go in the air and
land in the mitt of some PLAYER
We will have to shake off our hoo
doc and win some games, and
have feeling that the next game
we play with the kahuluis will re-
suit in our favor. We are not sore
nor discouraged and hope to sur
prise some team before the season
is over
