METROPOLITAN

The business of the Metropolitan
Meat Company will be sold to A. w
Carter and his associates, known as
the Graziers Association, for the sum
of $75 900 This was decided at a
meeting of the stockholders held this
morning in the Office of b. f. Dilling-
ham. The new owners of the con-
Germ will limit their business to the
wholesale end and will not take over
the book accounts, leather and hides
which are on hand, delivery wagons or
any equipment which would be used
for retail purposes, their purchase is OF
the meat market slaughter house,
leaseholds and good will.
The directors of the Metropolitan
Meat Company were instructed to close
up the accounts of the concern and
realize all possible. 1t is understood
from the report, that the stockholders
will receive in the neighborhood OF
seventy cents on the dollar when the
affairs of the company are closed.
The meeting was a long one and a
number of the stockholders took part
in the discussion. 1t was not complet-

Rice showed the Board of Education

buildings, and not a lot of barns What
did they do? They made plans with

| please-such wise Board of Educa-
ton! Was it any wonder that the
other islands wanted representation?
The subject called for justice. Even
/ Oahu members should see that the 9TH
er islands needed just representa- on.
Three commissioners Tor all the other
! islands and two for Oahu was a per-
fectly fair proposition. Hawaii should
have two members, however, and Rice
said he would amend that instead OF
reducing from six to five commission
ers. the bill read two members from
Hawaii Island six in all.

BACK TO EDUCATION. u.
Rice being present the education
commission bill was gone back to
and Sheldon moved to amend to pro-
vide for five commissioners, instead of
six as in the bill.
Cohen couldn't understand why three
members for other islands and three
for Oahu was not a fair proportion,
when Oahu had most of the population.
He did not see why Sheldon wished 20
limit the Oahu membership to two
while other islands had three.
OAHU is A GRABBER.
Oahu never asks for anything" de-
clared Sheldon, "she takes it! Here
you are in Oahu with your great con-
