1906 Fort Street

No more healthy sign of the times
has been in evidence than the APP

In attendance at the regular meetings
of the City Supervisors.
The Bulletin hopes that this
new diversion will continue and rap
idly become habit If II does, the
government of the city will be sec
ond to none, both as regards the elf
cheney of it's service and the speed
with which necessary work is car
ried forward.
Taxpayers who have sufficient in
terest to meet with the Supervisors
and urge the appropriation of money,
are fairly certain TO see that the
money when finally obtained Is made
to go as far ms possible. They will
be the daily spur behind the work
men, and II the latter lag behind, the
taxpayers will also be the active sup
porters of the city officer who de-
mands full value for days pay.
Sessions of the Board of Supervis-
ors that are turned into u sort of town
meeting will accomplish tremendous
good for the city of Honolulu, and be-
sides serving the general welfare by
getting things done, they will make
service on the Board more attractive.
a great many men will enter public
service II they feel that their fellow
citizens will honestly cooperate with
them; and a great many men avoid
public service because they feel that
their fellow citizens only desire to get
them into an Office where they are to
serve as a target at which to throw
bricks and make complaints.
Honolulu will gain a great deal for
its own benefit II II establishes a rep
utation as the town where the cit
liens attend the city government
meetings and know something of
what is going on.
