 ing to Criticise at Brooklyn Jail.
 There is a feeling of satisfaction. but not of elation, in the towns in this end of Windham county over the report of the committee of the state board of charities relative to the alleged core hensible conditions that were supposed to exist at Brooklyn jail.

And so bursts the last Of the campaign bubbles--One that in the opinion of eastern Windhara county people should never have hean blown. In the meantime Jailer Albert :. Fields has been held up as a brutal administrator of affairs at the institu- ton. It looks up this way as if it is lip to some one to do some aDologfzing to MT. Fields.

KEKAHA TURNS OUT
A RECORD BREAKER

Kekaha plantation ground the~last
cane for its 1910 season last week
finishing operations at seven o.
clock Tuesday afternoon. The crop
vas the largest ever taken off, be-
ing 1880 IL tons, an increase of
over three thousand tons over last
years crop, which was 11,154 the
record up to date.
The large increase in the tonnage
of the plantation is due principally
to tie considerable addition to the
area of it's cane lands from the plant
ing of 1000 acres or so of land on the
bluff, which has been made possible
by the Kekaha ditch, brought around
the cliffs of Waimea canyon and up
on to the fertile lands extending up
to Pun o ka Pele.
The substitution of the pure and
fresh water of the upper Waimea
River for the brackish water obtained
from the pumps on the Kekaha and
Mana plains, is also responsible for
a good increase in the tonnage.-The
Garden Island.
