sibly the Supervisors were not prepar.
ed to go ahead.
1t is understood that the Republicans
were afraid that if the meeting swung
along to regular business the Mayor
would formally reappoint his road su.
pervisors and other appointees, and
thus renew the fight for control Of the
city IS road department business. 1t is
understood that the Republican mem
bers wish to defer the transaction of
business as long as possible, or until
the municipal charter is amended to
give them, instead of the Mayor, the
power to appoint all employees.
A Republican Supervisor said yes
terdav that if it came to the worst
with their side of the board that they
could refuse to appropriate money for
pay of employees.
The $4,000 Damage Suit.
Mayor Fern was yesterday cited by
Circuit Court to answer as one of the
defendants in the case of John Has
kell VS.. the City and County of Homo
lulu. case brought for $4,000 dam
ages alleged to have been sustained in
November last, when he was thrown
from U. S. quartermaster wagon by
being bumped irto by a fire depart

ment. His leg was broken. The suit
was entered in the Circuit Court yes
terday The Mayor, in a communica-
ton to the board, called attention to
the fact Of the suit, and asked that it
be referred to "the City Attorney for
appropriate action But nothing was
doing.
The Peck Case.
The report of the special committee
appointed by the Mayor to inquire into
the charges fled by the Mayor against
Sol. Peck, road overseer for Koolau-
poke, was also to have been read. The
report is understood to contain state
ments to the effect that some time
during the life of the last board Sol.
Peck was permitted to employ a man
to look after horses of the county kept
at his private premises, and that he
had mentioned the matter to Mr..
Quinn, and the latter said it would be

The Weeds VIII Go.

1t is reported out at Salina that
there were a good many weed
patches on the vacant lots, etc,
and quite a howl was being made
about it. No one paid any atten
ton, however, to the fuss. and
the weeds continued to grow.
Finally one man cut his weeds
and in the center of the patch
found a full bottle of whiskey.
Within twenty-four hours after
the news got out, all the weeds
IN town were cut down, and some
of the people, it is said, were even
pulling up the old stumps, and
searching on their hands and
knees fo1 something Several
other towns in the state are now
advocating that some big-heart-
ed, public spirited citizen dis
tribute the necessary induce
ment in the centres of the sun
dry and several offensive weed
patches They feel positive that
the desired results will be OBJ
tanned Because the end justifies
the means, and it is not thought
that such distribution of en-
enlargement will be a violation
OF the law even in Wa-Keeney.
