COSTLY LOCAL GOVERNMENT;
FEDERAL AID TO SANITATION

President +. J. Spalding presented
a report to the Chamber of Commerce
trustees yesterday on the expensive.
ness Of territorial and county govern
ment, which was generally discussed
and referred to the legislative com
mittee of which Elmer f. Paxton is
chairman.
Mr. Spalding's report said in part

are in deplorable state; our police
and fire departments are crippled pre-
sumably for want of funds and the
former needs a complete reorgani2a-
ton. Honolulu is spreading out in all
directions necessitating enlarged and
adequate police and fire protection,
together with heavy expenditures for
extension Of the water, sewer and
light systems; shipping must be nc
commodated with suitable wharves
and landings; the demands for pub
lie instruction (for as an American
territory we must extend the privil-
ege of free education to all within orr
gates, alien as we'll as citizen), now
consumes nearly one-third of our rev
enue, and at the opening of the pres
ent school term there was a cry from
one end of the Territory to the other
for better school accommodations.
out of our $6,OOO,OOO revenue some
eighty per cent is consumed in run
ming expenses, leaving only twenty
per cent for improvements and emer-
gencies, and when we were recently
threatened by yellow fever $4,000 out
of the 100000 estimated for the mos
quito campaign had to be contributed
from private sources and was fur
nished by the shippers wharf COM
mittee. How then. are we prepared
to meet the enormous demands for
sanitation throughout this Territory,
together with all the other financial
problems confronting us? BY Dor

PUBLIC SERVICE ASSOCIATION
IN HOME PROMOTION WORK

The Public Service Association will
begin tomorrow to put I'm full force
of workers for home promotion work.
The Hundred Thousand club will have
an active man i'm charge of its affairs
to cooperate with the different semi
public bodies Of the city that look
after the welfare of the man who
wishes to work. In this the club will
have the cooperation of the Y. NJ. G..
A. and the Palama Settlement, so that
in time a downtown employment bu-
reau will be created and something
may be done to bring American citi.
zens from the mainland when needed
Already corresponding agents are at
work in Chicago and other large cities
where the Hands Around the Pacific
Club has it's branches, and many are
ready and willing to come to Hawaii
when the opportunity offers. With this
branch will go the careful survey of
the city to find those who are needy,
and formulate plans to, assist them to
secure work. Correspondence will be
opened with the large cities that have
put in these systems of keeping in
touch with the workers and the EN-
ployers, so that the most practical and
successful methods may be worked
out.
G. F. Maxwell, who is thoroughly
familiar with the workings of the New
Zealand Tourist Bureau will take
charge of the tourist department of
the Public Service work, beginning to-
morrow, and will at once begin the or
ganization of island and inter-island
excursions. Mr.. Maxwell is a New

BLANCHARD TESTS
MILK AND Poi

Food Commissioner Blanchard is
still working on the condensed milk
tests that he started some days ago,
and the fact that samples of many diff
ferent brands of the canned stuff are
to be examined makes the work inter
esting. The chemist is examining for
butter fat, solids and water.
Samples have been obtained from
many different stores, and the product
being examined is from all parts of
the United States and the continent
of Europe.
Besides testing the milks, the food
commissioner is also examining poi,
and it may be that before long prose-
cutions will eventuate. The percent
age of water in some of the poi is too
high, and the consumer is in many
cases paying a stiff price for the aqua
pura.

DR.. CLARK ON
MALIHINI TREE

DIR. Victor Clark, of the Bureau of
immigration and Statistics, stated
this morning that both he and the
consuls of Spain and Portugal consid-
cred it inadvisable to have the mali
hini Christmas tree in the receiving
stations for immigrants at the old
fish market, as has been suggested.
"The immigrants will now be going
to the other islands right along" sale
Dr. Clark, "and several steamers
will be leaving with them Just before
Christmas. If they get the fiesta idea
they will not like to go before it is
over, and it will be difficult thing
to get them aboard the steamers. 1t
would also put the department to
several thousand dollars extra eX-
pense"
The Spanish and Portuguese con
suls agree with DR.. Clark, and all
three are strongly of the opinion that
if there is to be a Christmas tree Tor
the immigrants it would be better to
have it on Quarantine Island, where
there will be a number Of unfortm-
ates left.
After all is said and done it will be
those who are quarantined on the
island who will be the main sufferers
from lack of Christmas season de-
lights.

SOME IMMIGRANTS
OUT DECEMBER 20

That some of the Willesden immi-
grants will be out of quarantine about
December 90 is the opinion of the
officials at the Territorial Immigrant
Station. 1t is not certain, however,
but the probabilities are that one or
two groups" will be located at the
new station about the time mentioned
All the preparations to receive the
immigrants, as soon as they are pass
ed by the federal people, are com
plete, and the station is fixed up in
readiness for the pewcomers. =

The freely expressed opinion of
those who know the circumstances of
the case, is that, excepting the Harpa-
lion, which is at present under char
ter, no more British vessels will ever
bring immigrants to Hawaii.
The fact that the immigrants to the
number of eighteen hundred or so,
have to be kept in quarantine, causes
great expense and the ships payroll
and other incidentals have to be fig
ured on also. That in conjunction
with the experience of the Orteric
owners, who lost nearly seven thou
sand dollars in fines, is thought to
have scared off any other possible
shipping people,

broad foundation, it was nonsectarian.

months and this was only formal

he knew all KaimuH, but the auto

surprise for him. This school with Mr..

WET WEATHER
STARTS CAMPAIGN

Now tht the wet season seems to
be set in, the efforts of the mosquito
campaigners are being almost en-
tirely devoted to the installing OF drip
cans and the oiling of pools wherein
mosquitoes may deposit their eggs
Dr. Mccoy has sent out hundreds
of drip cans and they are rapidly be-
ing hung in catch basins. Spikes are
driven into the sides of the basins
and the cans are suspended there
from
For some time past most of the
catch basins have been dry, and the
oiling that they got some weeks ago
prevented any mosquitoes from breed
ing there Now that there is some
water in them the work of putting IN
the drip cans is being proceeded with
as quickly as possible.
Three hundred and fifty men are at
work today, and twenty-five wagons
are also on the job. The hauling of
garbage should be finished in about
ten days, and the whole force will
then be put on to inspecting house
cutters and other breeding places.
DR.. Mccoy made a round of inspec-
ton yesterday, and he reports having
found the work going on well. A big
lot of garbage has been hauled away,
and all of it has been dumped in low
lying places in the city and suburbs.

AS the vessels approached the harbor
it could be seen that all the craft in

Dave Richards, in the Julie, had
stretched a red, white and blue rib
bon from the dredger at the harbor's
mouth to the derrick scow on the
other side of the entrance. Pointing
her steel nose for this, the California,
without even slackening speed,
steered ahead and the ribbon snapped
AT the same instant the dredgers,
steamers, launches and everything
that had a whistle broke out into
paean of exultation. The cruiser was

But she had not reached her destin-
alton. The channel that has been
dredged out is very tortuous in addi-
ton to being sufficiently narrow 10

part of a vessel the size of the Cali

complished but she stirred up a lot
of mud and many of those who We're
watching were sure that she bumped
slightly opposite Beacon No. I, #
she did it was so lightly as to occa-
sion no alarm.
It took just half an hour from the
time the California snapped the rib
bon at the harbor entrance until she
came opposite the drydock and
dropped anchor there. AS she did SO

renewed and all those ashore Joined
