projecting ledge furnished good footing
for dam foundation. The dam, as
planned and now constructed, is sixteen

Alaska Packers Get

boring altogether nearly 500 men.
Most of these were Chinese, though
there were a considerable number of
Japanese and Mexicans.
The Chinese contractors who are
supplying the men said yesterday that
they expected no difficulty in securing
all the help needed this season, ex-
elusive of the Filipinos, Hawaiian and
Porto Ricans VINO had broken faith by
jumping their contracts last Thursday.
1t is said that the experiment which
involved the loss of a considerable
sum to those concerned, will not be
again attempted.

that these will break their contracts as

Unexpected Troubles.
The alleged desire of the Alaska
Packers to do away with the old sys-
TEN and secure laborers in a more d.
rect manner and from the outside is
said to have resulted in trouble to
burn. The companys representatives
who undertook the job never contem-
plated the difficulty that has arisen.

Proposed Libel Suit.

The Hawaii Herald says, Carl S
Smith, as attorney for Mrs. Compton
in the High School trouble, is ex.
tremely wroth at a statement which
appeared at the top of an article in
the Advertiser of April 9, coming
from Hilo. The statement is one al
legged to have been made by Mrs
Compton and Attorney Smith states
that it is libelous in the extreme and
that he will file a suit against that
paper in the near future, in fact it is
almost certain that the papers in the
suit will be sent to Honolulu for SER
vice by the Mauna Kea on Friday,
The remarks alleged to De made
by Mrs. Compton are to the effect
that she would ruin the High School
and drive Richmond out of a job,
Further on in the article Mrs Comp
ton is referred to as a "scheming
woman" These two sections of the
Advertiser story are the ones to
which Attorney Smith takes particu-
lar exception, but he states that the
entire tone of the story is such that it
shows venom and prejudice,

Correspondence Of The starr
HILO. April 14-Nothing new has
developed in the Hilo High School
scandal save an attempt which has
been made to smooth things over
without further investigation. This
was done through memorial to the
Board of Education which, after three
days Of circulation, was signed by but
seventeen persons, and in these cases
the number of signers was really
made smaller from the fact that in
one instance five members of one
family signed, while in other cases
both husband and wife signed.
The feeling here is growing stron-
ger and stronger to the effect that
q nearly clean sweep of the High
School teachers is desired. It is gen.
orally acknowledged that where there
is so much smoke there is some fire,
and that to have the present force
remain means a total lack of disci-
pline. According to general opinion.
Principal Richmond, even should the
charge of immortality against him he
disproven, has ended his usefulness in
this city. His removal seems GER
tain.
In regard to the other teachers
there exists a different state of opin-
ion. Many feel that Mrs. Compton
has been treated in very unfair
manner by both Principal Richmond

as here has not been much rain lately,
and surrounding the dam at the Pail
end of the brown patch where the
foliage from the creeping plants has
died. This, of course, decomposes as
time goes on, and then when the
swirling waters come down this is
picked up, and after floating around
on the surface for while, it be-
comes soddened and sinks to the bot
tom. The consequence is. that the
muddy deposit at the bottom of the
lake is impreganted with dead leaves,
and rotting twigs.
Medical men state that water is an
excellent germ carrier for all sorts of
diseases. Had filtration beds been
installed at the dam, the water would
have remained pure. Such, however,
is not the case, for there is none at
all. The water is simply piped direct
ly from the dams. Consequence is
that most careful householders have
their drinking water boiled, but
those who live in boarding houses,
or depend upon their drinking water
from places where carelessness is
likely to be displayed, have to take
the risks that are attendant upon
consumption of water from this dam.

Unsatisfactory CONDITION
OF NUUANU RESERVOIR

While the health officials are seek
ing to blame for carrying the infec-
tion of cholera, The Star has been
asked to call attention to the water
impounded in the Nuuanu dam 1t is
a body of water representing thous-
ands of dollars, and already it has
rank vegetation rotting in it, and
daily more is falling in.
1t is stated that when the dam
was projected all the necessary ar
rangements were made with the ex-
ception that no attempt was made
to clear the ground in order that the
water would be as free from impuTi-
ties as it would be possible to make it.
The result is that in the midle of the
body of water a dead tree rears it
self, while farther up there is an is
land of green grass. In the rainy
season the waters pours down the
rugged sides of the mountains, and
lies in the excellent catchment area
at the foot, and naturally the meeting
CT so vast a volume of water means
a tumult and the mud stirred. This
accounts for the discoloration that
takes place in the wet weather.
At present the water is getting low,
