Elects New Officers for En-
suing Year.

sociation met in the district court
room, Tuesday, February 9th, anC
elected Jas. n. X. Keola, President.

ID. II. Davis, and c. E. Copeland
After election of officers the matter
of the erection of a public wharf for
Kahului was brought up and dis
cussed. The Association was of the
opinion that such a wharf should
be constructed, and that efforts be
made to influence the legislature to
provide suitable appropriation for
the purpose.
The injunction against taking
water from the government system
was discussed and referred to the
new executive committee for further
action.
Mr.. Copeland brought up the
matter of observing Lincoln $ day
with appropriate exercises. Left to
a committee consisting of Mr.. c. Z.
Copeland, r. B. Dodge, d. II. Case
and Brother Frank.
Complaints voiced by leading at
torneys recently at the County seat
during last Circuit Court term in
referencet to conditions recently arisen
were brought up for discussion.
Many spoke strongly of the evil con-
dition and of taking the matter in
hand. Various suggestions were
made to send memorials to those in
to act and to act quickly,
but it was finally referred to the
executive committee.

work, and if these appropriation.
are passed and the wharf construct.
ed, the Kahului Railroad Company
will enter into arrangements with
the Territorial Government where
by rights of way for the public to
the wharf will be secured, and the
kahului Railroad Company will in
all things endeavor to cooperate
with the Territorial Government for
the furtherance of this important
improvement for the Island of Maui
If, however, the Legislature fails
to appropriate sufficient sum of
money to carry ON this work, the
Kahului Railroad Company pro-
poses to obtain IA license from the
Superintendent of Public Works
permitting II to construct the said
wharf and dredge out the said slip,
so that the progress of business may
not be hampered, and the develop
ment of the port may proceed with
out any interruption.
If the Kahului Railroad Company
should construct the wharf, it
would be under an agreement to
turn over the wharf to the Terri
torial Government for a reasonable
compensation, at any time that the
Government might demand it.
The Kahului Railroad Company
believes that a wharf similar to the
one planned by the Superintendent
of Public Works, is absolutely
necessary for the proper develop
ment of the resources of Maui. This
wharf should be constructed IN
THE NEAR FUTURE, either by
the Government or by the Kahului
Railroad Company under license
from the Government, The Kahu-
lui Railroad Company is prepared
to go ahead with this important
work, if the Legislature should find
it impossible TO make the necessary
appropriations.

Proposed
Improvements
Ships Wharf for Kahului
to Cost $l5O,OOO.OO.
Editor MAUI News:

Editor MAUI NEWS: r.'
Sir:-The President and Board OF
Directors of the Kahului Railroad
Company feel that it is desirable
that the public should be fully i'm
formed as to the status of the pro-
posal to build the wharves or wharf
at Kahului. This information seems
to be especially desirable at this
time in view of the next session of
the Legislature, which will be con-
vened this month, in order that not
only the Legislators from Maui and
other parts of the Territory, but
also the general public, shall know
the facts.
The Federal Government is about
to establish harbor lines in kahului
Harbor, the Inner or Bulkhead Line
being the limit of extension to which
private corporations can construct
piers, bulkheads, and Filings for the
purpose of carrying on shipping
business.
The Outer Line known as the
Pierhead Line, is the limit beyond
which no structure of any kind can
be built out into the harbor by
either private, Territorial or Federal
enterprise.
At Kahului the distance between
the Outer and Inner lines will be
600 feet, and this space will be con-
trolled by the Territorial Govern
ment through the Department of
Public Works; that is to say, pri-
vate enterprise could construct
wharves within this space only, un-
der a license from the Territory, or
the Territorial Government itself
could construct whaives and dredge
slips, ETC., without further reference
to Federal authority. Beyond the
pierhead line the only work that
could be done is dredging out basins
and entrances, and deepening cham
nels, and the location of suitable
and beacons, or the con-
of breakwaters.
The plans proposed by the Super
of Public Works for the
improvement to Kahului harbor in
volve the construction of wharf
600 feet long and 100 feet wide,
and the dredging of slip of sufli-
cient depth to permit the largest
vessels which ply in these waters
coming up to the dock and dis
charging and taking on cargo. Room
is contemplated also, for the accom-
modation of Inter-island steamers
to lie at the same dock, at the same
time as the large vessels, for the ac-
of inter island traffic,
both inward and outward. This
involves the expenditure of Il very
large sum of money, roughly esti-
mated at $3.50, 10000. The ulti-
mate cost would probably largely
exceed this.
1t is thought that the Governor
will recommend to the Legislature

Kuiaha Land
50 hOmeSteadS
A Rich Farming Country for
HOmeSeekerS.

The exchange of the Omaopio
lands for Kuiaha lands above Hal
ku, reported approved by Governor
Frcar, will be great thing for
homesteaders in Makawao and for
the County of Maui in general, if
all the proposed plans are carried
out.
The twelve hundred acres of land
acquired by the government for
homesteads through this exchange
are between twelve and fourteen
miles from Kahului harbor, and
two public wagon roads pass through
the district, one to Makawao and
the other to Kahului and Wailuku
which makes it easy of access to
homesteaders. 1t lies between the
vineyards of the Kaupakalua grape
growers and the pineapple fields of
: the Haiku Fruit and Packing Com
pany. The lands of this Company
produce the biggest crops OF pines
of any devoted to growing pines for
the market on these Islands.
There are never failing springs of
fresh water in the several gulches
running through the land, and the
rainfall is plentiful, more than
enough to keep crops growing all
the year around. Drouth was never
known to affect the place, in fact
outsiders say there is too much rain
for comfort. Older settlements with
schools and churches are within two
miles of the heart of the tract.
Any industrious man with small
means can make an independent
living thereon, raising fruits, pine
apples and grapes for the winery on
one hand, and for the pineapple
cannery on the other.
The land is undoubtedly fertile,
but there are people with an eye to
business who are Justify saying the
land isn't any good.
Experts say that with proper cul-
tivation and the right kind of grape
vine, as much as nine tons of grapes
per acre could be raised in the
adjoining Kaupakalua vineyards,
where now only five tons an acre
are to be had. Lands planted to
pineapples on the Haiku side are
yielding an average crop of over
twenty tons of pines to the acre.
The Kaupakalua winery has been
paying forty dollars a ton for grapes
delivered, and the Haiku cannery,
twenty-four dollars a ton for pines.
Any one with pencil and paper can
figure out the prospects from the
above facts, providing the factories
won't reduce the price.

Coming, and Glad to Get Back Once More

j. P. Bailey and family arrived
from Pampa, Texas, where they moved
from North Dakota two years ago
last May. The Baileys declare that
it is too dry in the vicinity OF Pampa,
and contrary to the general idea, the
summers are short. Water melons in
that vicinity will not be ripe for three
weeks. There are six months in the
year when it does not rain in the vic
unity of Pampa. The Bailey family
are glad to be back, and we are glad
to welcome them back to North Da-
kota where we have plenty of room
Mr.. Bailey's greatest regret is that
when he left North Dakota, he sold
his fine homestead twelve miles north
Of the city but he will no doubt buy
another, soon.
