HOUSE ron THIS

The necessity for parks, Or breathing

been appreciated for che reason that
on an OF the islands Of the Territory
there have been, and still are, large
areas which have not been under cult.
vstion or In actual use, thus providing
space where people could gather with
out having to keep 20 the roads.
But conditions are rapidly changing.
Much Of the government land ia now
becoming homosteaded, and large areas
are being placed under cultivation
which were formerly vacant, while tho
cities and towns on the islands are
growing SO quickly that vacant land
Is becoming moro and more vnluabio
and the space available for park pur-
poses more and more restricted.
It is believed by those who have
looked into this important matter that
now is the time for the legislature TO
take hold and discount the future, so
far as public parks are concerned. The
longer action in this matter is delayed
the more expensive will be the relief
when it is realized how necessary it is.
At present some of the up-to-date leg
islators are considering the proposition
TO set aside certain part Of the gov
eminent land, where suitable, for pur'
poses of public parks, not only in the
cities snd towns, but on the great plan.

that they have place where they car

One of the places where there is nov
a need for a park is in Waimea, Kauai

Sheldon TO introduce a bill in the house
of representatives setting aside thii

SLATED
FOR BIC ISLAND
(From Saturdays Advertiser

(From Saturdays Advertiser.)
Further sanitary precautions for the
districts Of North and South Kona are
provided in two bills introduced in the
senate by Baker yesterday morning, one
of them providing for the creation Of
the position of government physician
to each district and the other bill pro-
viding for the creation Of two hospitals.
Under the terms of the first men
toned bill the physicians will be ap-
pointed by the board Of health and win
act as its agents, performing also the
duties of registrar, registering mar.
riages, births, deaths and other vital
statistics.
They are to inspect schools, perform
autopsies at eoroner's inquests, look
after the INDECENT sick and do all Of
and more than, the regular duties OF
government physicians. Their salary il
set at $3.50 a month.
The second bill provides $500 FOL
each of the two hospitals, the tern
used being to Establish" them, but
there is no appropriation for theii
maintenance. They are created prima
rily for the purpose of caring for the
INDECENT sick, and this will hardly make
them self-supporting, although fees vii
be charged those patients able to pay
and the proceeds applied to mainte
nance.

"rhero is no road between faupa'

70 get an automobile or even team
through An traffic has to be done BY
pack animals
That was the answer to a Hilo rrib.
une reporter Of gentleman, whose
business keeps him posted on che con.
dition Of the roads, when be was asked
yesterday what had been the effect Of
tho recent storm on the highways on
this side Of the island.
The storm appears to have played
worst havoc in Hamakua district, where
at least Eve bridges have been washed
out by the torrents sweeping down the
guiehes which they crossed. AS far as
can be learned there are two bridges
gone, one on each side Of Ookaia. Then
there are bridges down on both sides of
Honokaa, and finally there Is bridge
down on the Ahualoa road leading to
Waimea.
North Hilo district, whore it was
feared that the storm would have most
effect on the roads, owing mainly to
the unsafe condition of several bridges,
/ appears to have escaped for some
reason. Oil the bridges survived. The
railroad construction work also escaped
serious damage, with the exception that
q Gil at the Kakakina gulch was partly
washed out.
The Hakalau plantation suffered the
loss Of one of its great fumes, which
went down during Thursday night, pre-
sumably carried to destruction by the
high wind which swept in from the sea
during the middle Of the night. The
flume crossed the Nanue gulch. It wal
225 feet in height and about fifteen
hundred feet long.
According to Road Supervisor Ke
aloha the roads in South Hilo suffered
but very little damage. However, il
seems that a couple of springs have
broken forth in one of the fills on thu
new Honolii road, and the water there
from is sluicing out the dirt quit,
rapidly. The road in question has no
as yet been accepted by the super
visors, and the damage is therefore tn,
loss of the contractor.
Travellers who have come into towI
from Hamakua-way report having me
with all kinds of hardships. Diclki,
Davis and Mr.. Waterman, of Honolulu
arrived in Hilo last Saturday, aftei
having bucked through mud and slnsl
from Mahukona. They tried to engag,
an auto for the trip, but were told tina
it could not be taken through. The
then started in buggy and had manl
adventures crossing swollen stream
which flooded the road, until finally a
night they hit place near oobal
where a torrent washed across the road
having formed such steep banks tina
further progress was out of tn
question. The travellers slept overnight
with hospitable Portuguese family i
the vicinity, and the next morning the
abandoned their rig and managed t
get across with their horses.

Here is nice soft job for somebody,
maybe.
|, Senator Judd introduced a resolution
in the senate yesterday allowing the
judiciary committee of that body a
clerk at fifteen dollars per diem. When
Judd announced the salary his col
leagues sat up ana took notice at once.
1t was thought at first that the fif-
teen dollar day clerk was to be
George G. Curry, as Judd had explain
ed that the appointee was to be a
trained lawyer as we'll as a qualified
stenographer and typewriter. Someone
afterward stated that it was TO be
Charlie Aehi, and the general report
among house members was that Achi
was to get his reward at last.
There was considerable dispute over
the resolution. Judd spoke for 1t, call
ing attention to the need Of such
man to handle the large amount of
work which falls to this important
committee. Cecil Brown agreed with
Judd and gave few details OF the
work that would fall to the position.
Both Brown and Judd are on the judi
ciary committee.
Kalei0pu then arose and took
whaek at the resolution. His main OBJ
lection to it was that the salary was
! larger than that received by the clerk
of the senate, who only draws down
twelve dollars a day, although be
"worked the life out Of himself.
/ Kaleiopu, with the. possible excep-
ton of Kalama, did not see why he was
the only one who did not seem to like
the resolution. Kalama merely stated
that he didn It see any use in it as hs
believed the matter rested with the
committee itself.
Brown delivered his other barrel
stating that at the previous session tn,
members Of the Judiciary COMMITTEES
had had to work until three or SO il
the morning to complete the work, ans
someone else added that w. o. Smitl
had one Of his own clerks do the work
The matter ended with it being 70
ferred to the Judiciary committee.

Accept inevitable.

When the name. of Wilder was
brought up as compromise the board
was dubious about accepting, as they
felt that it would look on the face Of
it as though they were going back on
their resolutions. They had no objee-
tions whatsoever to the man himself,
whom they considered capable and
quite fitted to carry out his duties.
They clearly saw that there was no
other way out Of the difficulty, how
ever, and that something had to be
done to get the work started. Super
visor Dwight put the matter in nut
she'll when he said that while they
would prefer to have the city engineer
do the work, the power of naming the
official did not rest with the board and
all they could do was to accept the in
evitable and trust to the legislature to
assist them out.

MAYOR Has Responslbility.

Murray in speaking ON the matter re-

as to the Office being abolished and
said that the public held the board re-

in the matter. They had been willing
to take over the responsibility, but the
mayor would not give them the power
BY the present move they had, there
fore, transferred the whole of the re-
sponsibility over to him. At the same
time they were willing to give every
assistance that lay in their power to
see that the work was carried ont prop
erly. The move had been in further
ance with their policy Of cutting the
political element entirely out.

Liliuolalani Premises.

Governor Frear did not hold out much
hope to the board in regard to what
is known as the Liliuokalani premises
at Kapalama. Owing to the large re-
auirements of land for public purposes
ana tbe reduction of the means Of OBJ
tanning it, through the amendments
made to the Organic Act, it may be
difficult to have the land set aside.
