(From Sundays Advertiser }

Money came in for considerable dis
eussion at the meeting of the Central
Improvement committee, which is en-
gineering the cleanup day campaign to
be held next Saturday, and Mayor
Fern, who was present, deprecated the
idea of a large fund coming from any.
where to be spent on that day, saying
that if many of the Hawaians heard
there was a fund at somebody's dis
pOsal for Cleanup Day they would lay
back and either let the cleaning up be
done by some one else or wait to be
paid to do it,
The general sense of the committee
was that money was necessary in order
to procure the carts, horses and team
sters and for other implements, but that
the government could not advance or
give any money toward cleanup day,
the surprise being told of in the fol
lowing letter from Chairman Spalding,
Of that committee. to Chairman Berndt,
of the Central Improvement Commit
tee, and read last night:

ident of board of health.
Carts, Brooms and Lime.
The memorandum referred to states
that the estimate for cleaning up is
$4,000. but that little, if any labor, will
be paid for out of these funds, as
every person is expected to do his share
of labor on that day. Territorial and
municipal departments are expected to
contribute the labOrers of their depart
ments and business men are expected
to do likewise. Improvement clubs are
to supply certain amount of volun-
tary labor and yaTdmen should be
brought into the work.
Little, if any, money is to be ex-
pended on drays. carts, etc., govern
ment departments, business houses and
individuals being expected TO furnish
the same. Brooms. buckets, hoes, picks,
shovels. whitewash. brushes. whitewash
machines. lime and the like will be fur
nished in part.
Mott Smith suggested that at last
night s meeting some system he devils
organizat ton, will make acquisitions, in
volving expenditure OF money, upon
central committee and such acquisitions
be sent TO the finance committee
The Holiday Resolution.
One of the most important acts of
the meeting was the unanimous adop-
ito nof a resolution offered by Harry
7. Mills and seconded by Senator Judd.
in which the Governor is directly asked
to declare Saturday a legal holiday.
Mr.. Mills, in presenting and speak.
ing upon his resolution, did so in a
convincing manner, and declared that
IL was a patriotic duty which the com.
munity owed itself that cleanup day
be taken seriously. so that the results
wOuld be made apparent on the main
land. and that II be not mere brush
ing Of Of Honolulu's coat to get the
dust out, but that il he a serious effort
TO clean the city Of whatever filth may
have accumulated. so that the future
work Of the board Of health would NOT
be 80 great The resolution went
through with a rush and will be pre-
scented 70 the Governor by the execn-
tive committee.

WIN Fix Rates.

The board will fix the rates for pilot
age, handling of freight, fees for stor-
age, etc, and will generally regulate
and control shipping within the har-
bors. Rules and regulations may be
adopted to prevent the throwing into
harbors of rubbish, refuse, garbage and
other substances likely to make har.
bors unsightly, unhealthful or unclean,
or liable to fill up or shoal them.
Pilotage charges at Honolulu are fix
ed as follows: All steamers of 1000
tons or over, $50; all sailing vessels I'M
der 200 tons register, $3.50 per square
foot of draft, and for each other sail.
ing vessel or steamer, five cents per
ton. For anchoring vessels outside the
harbor the charge will be $50.
For the ports of Hilo and Kahulli
the charge is $3.50 per foot on the yes
sells draft for coming into the harbor
and the same for going ont. For an
choring any vessel off the Hilo and Ka.
hului bars the charge will be $40. If
any vessel departs without a pilot it
will be liable for half the fees.
The board will appoint harbOI mas
tiers for Honolulu, Hilo and Kahului
and for such other ports and harbors
as, in the opinion of the commissioners,
may be needed. Under the new loan
bill the sum of $350,000 is set aside
to be expended under the direction of
! the harbor commission.

No Money Prom Territory.

On behalf of the finance committee
for "Clean-lp Day" beg to advise
you of the receipt of a letter from the
President of the board of health, stat.
ing that, on account Of the exhausted
condition of its appropriation, little,
if any, financial assistance can be ex-
peeted from that source.
AS we were led TO believe that the
board of health would provide at least
$4,000, this information comes as a sur
prise and upsets the plans of the com
mittee to avoid soliciting private sub
scriptions and renders it necessary to
look to that source alone for finances.
The Importance of "Clean.up Day"
is without doubt principally to awaken
civic pride and a sense Of personal re-
sponsibility in the people TO keep their
premises clean and sanitary, and calls
for financial assistance should be as
moderate as possible, not only 70 avoid
giving one class Of our comm unity the
idea that the expense and trouble Of
taking ordinary care Of their premises
viii be borne by Official or public
organizations, but also 10 avoid soiiri
