THE DEATH OF UNCLE"
GEORGE 7. BROMLEY

Uncle George Bromley, the sage of
the Bohemian Club, San Francisco, died
on June 80, aged 90 years. The Chron.
icle says of him that "few men had
more diversified talents or led more di.
versified lives than he. In the fullness
of his life he engaged in almost every
phase of human activity. He was a
farmer, sailor, railroad man, civil ser.
vice employee, diplomat, hotelkeeper,
and politician, as well as wit, author
and clubman." Years ago he came to
Hawaii with j. d. Spreckels and is
most pleasantly remembered. A we'll
known picture represents him standing
in Nuuanu cemetery at the grave of
his old friend Tavenier.

ORYDOCK CONTRACTOR
CAME LAST NIGHT
(From Thursdays Advertiser.)

AuNeTlIScI'J
S. G. Kinds, president of the San
Francisco Bridge Company, which was
awarded the Pearl Harbor drydock con-
tract by the Federal government for
about $1,70O,0OO, arrived from San
Francisco last evening on the Hilonian.
He was met by Walter Dillingham; and
George Denison of the Hawaiian Dredg-
ing company, which is now engaged in
dredging the channel to Pearl Harbor.
The latter company is quite likely to
have a share in the excavation of the
drydock basin.
Mr.. Kinds stated last evening that
he brought no equipment with him, but
came down to inspect the site and as
certain the utilities required to start
the great work.
The major part of the dock will be
excavated from the shore in, but por-
tion of the dock will be built out in
the harbor. Whether there will be dry
land excavating or all-water dredging,
with dredgers working in from the har-
Dor, is not yet decided The rock and
coral strata at the site, according to
the borings, comprises large tree coral
and is friable.. The dredging company
in its work on the Queen Emma point
has so far encountered little extremely
hard substance, and little blasting has
had to be done.
The draught of the dock over stills
will be 80 feet. Concrete will be used
throughout in the walls and floor, and
that this work may be expedited sew
eral hundred men may be employed on
the entire work. Rock for aiding in
the concrete work els to be obtained
here, the government authorities hay
ing had official reports that the mate.
rial here is satisfactory.

THE MERCHANTS
WANT TO KNOW

There is small.sized revolt by heads
of departments against the legisla-
lature's concurrent resolution requir-
ing the auditor of the territory to ad-
vertise for tenders for supplies for all
departments of the territorial govern.
ment for the biennial period. The
auditor has gone ahead and advertised
for tenders, having compiled a long
list of all necessities required by de-
partments. The auditor states that he
is carrying ont the wishes of the legis-
lature, according to this resolution, and
if the heads of departments do not
abide by the result, that, he says, is
not sup to him., but cup to them.
Attorney General Hemenway says
that the concurrent resolution is mere
ly an expression of opinion by the
legislature upon the subject of the fur
nishing of supplies to the departments,
and is not law, and therefore has
no force and effect, and may fall by
its own weight, or rather lack of
weight, if the heads do not desire to
obtain their supplies through the audi
tor. The lowest bidder, therefore, un'
der the auditors call for tenders may
or may not receive consideration. That
is up to the heads and there is nothing
in the law compelling them to pur
chase according to the tenders.
Auditor Fisher states that many
merchants have called upon him fol
lists of the items and the tenders arc
to be in by Saturday next. 1t is
thought that the merchants, general
ly, are making no great effort to re
spond to the auditor IS call for tenders
Some heads of departments say that
prices. may fuctuate, and of course the
government should get the benefit Of
any fluctuation the market affords, ant
six months tenders through "pur
chasing AGENT although such an off
Ger under the law does not exist, may
! make this difficult. President Mott
Smith of the Board of Health has gont
| ahead on his own hook and adver
tised for bids for his department, pay
ing no attention to the auditors call
In fact the Board of Health presiden
has some strong views on the purchas
ing of supplies, and these are set fortl
| very succinctly in communication
which amounts to a small-sized book
which he recently forwarded to thu
auditor. The whole question of wheth
err the concurrent resolution holds wat
er or not was prompted a short tim
ago by letter from the Chamber O.
Commerce directed to the auditor ask
ing for light on the subject. The in
quiry and the auditors response ar
given in the following interchange o.
correspondence:

TAG DAY" ON
JUNE 18TH

| The Civic Improvement League OF
the city completed the deal on the new
park May 27. and paid the purchase
price in full. $1.so0.4o ON that date
To accomplish this payment it was
necessary to use all the funds in the
treasury amounting to q little over
$4,000. This money had been raised
by various methods, mainly the street
fair, and husbanded In every way to
be able to carry on the work of the
league without constantly appearing
before the public for money. The park
deal seemed to demand immediate ac-
ton. If consummated. and the league
used its $500 for a first payment. The
park is now bought and paid for and
the next move is to install water
seed it in grass and make 1t beauty
spot.
Ways and means OF raising money
have been discussed and a general
Tag Day" decided upon as the best
method. Saturday, June 26th, is agreed
upon and the league asks that people
meet it good naturedly and with en-
thusiasm. Some may give large sums
and some may give only very insignifi-
cant amounts but all will help. The
league has worked hard and faithfully
for three years and sometimes feels
as If its work were not appreciated by
our own townspeople, although the
encouragement received from outside
towns like Fort Collins, Montrose.
Florence and Sterling and others Is
great by way of letters commencing
their work and asking for advice and
counsel in organizing similar leagues
for cleaning up and beautifying other
towns in the very best state in the
union.
Now II Canon City people do care
for the work OF this board which has
done SO much under its efficient and
untiring president toward making this
town clean. beautiful and healthful
they will say SO on Tag Day by re-
sponse of goodwill and cash and fur
ther the cause.
If the people of Canon City are not
interested in this work a good way to
show it will be by entirely evading the
taggers or sneering and insulting
them when they put forth their efforts.
Canon City belongs to all. and what
benefits the town benefits Individually
each one OF her loyal citizens.

From this time it is merely a ques-
