PRIVATE SYSTEM
FOR HONOLULU
WATER?

Transfer of the Honolulu Water
Works to a private corporation is one
of the propositions that will come to
the front as the result of the discus
sion started by the Fairchild resolu-
ton for an investigation of the sources
of Territorial revenue.
Another proposal is that the income
producing public lands shall be placed
under the administration of a special
commission, and the income turned
into "a fund that shall he used without
further appropriation for the needs of
education and health in the Territory.
The more revolutionary of the two
is that of turning the water works
over to "A private corporation, and
there is no doubt that it win be bit
terly fought. The claim is made that
there is not the slightest doubt Of the
Objectionable feature Of the present
system for managing the water works,
1t is also claimed that the water works
should not be turned over to the coun-
ty, so the suggestion viii be made
that a charter be drafted to enable a
corporation to take over this public
utility, provided it viii take up the
bonds and guarantee a filtration plant
and so forth The further claim is
made that the private corporation
scheme Is either water grab or a
back-f fire scheme to prevent the water
works being removed from their pres
ent management, by mixing the issues
and winding up with nothing done.
on the matter of the public lands,
the proposal is one that was made in
the report of the Public School Fund
Commission in so far as the associa-
tion of the lands with education Is con-
cerned 1t was rejected however, in
the final bill on account of the changes
that had been made in the Organic
Act allowing the executive department
to spend all the land revenues for
homesteading purposes. It follows out
the idea that has prevailed in all the
States of the Union
Both these propositions would call
for action of Congress, first for the
charter for the water works and sec
ondly to amend the Organic Act to
place the income of the lands in the
care of a special commission
In connection with the resolution it
is proposed to hold an oldfashioned
town meeting at which everyone Is
supposed to thresh out his own ideas
tent and show how the Territory and
the municipalities can be financed
without Increasing the taxes.

HAW'N, AGRIC.
MAKES REPORT
Prosperous Condition Is Shown
on Big Hawaii Plan
tatiOn.

Hawaiian Agricultural Company
held its annual meeting this morning
at the offices of G. Brewer q Com
pany, reelected officers, and heard sat
isfactory reports from Manager w G,
Ogg and Treasurer George II. Rob-
ertson. The managers report in part
says
CROP 1910 The yield per acre
slightly exceeded my estimate of a
year ago, and, had the whole area
been harvested, the total output would
have been something over Il 900 tons
of sugar. However, at the end of the
season it was decided to hold over
about 200 acres of Rose Bamboo cane
in order to save the seed for early
planting next spring, thus making our
actual output 10.445 tons of sugar, or
55 tons less than the estimate.
"CROP 1911. The fact that we had
a rainfall of only 2S3 inches from
the first of March to the middle of
August gave the fields for this crop
a severe setback. On the 18th of
August the drought broke. and we
have had ideal weather ever since,
which has made wonderful change
in the appearance of the whole place
The fields of crop cane have made a
good growth in the time, but natural
ly are to be very late in maturing on
account of the rains coming so late
in the season.
owing to the uncertain weather
conditions in this district, it is next
to impossible TO state what the yield
or even what the area to be cut, may
be one year ahead, but, as things look
at present, about 4 4400 acres should
be in condition to take off, from which
we expect to get IA 600 tons of sugar.
AT present writing we have about
100 tons of this crop in the bags,
and the Yields, so far, are all that we
expected.
CROP 1912 Both plant and rat
toons for this crop are looking bet
ter than anything we have had at this
season for the past three years.
Should we have the good luck to have
a favorable summer, the average yield
per acre will be considerably higher
than what we have been getting late
ly. Owing to the fact that 42S acres
of Government lands have been with
drawn from us for homesteading pur-
poses, the total area for this crop is
slightly less than usual"

EIGHTH DAY

AS a result of the long continued
fight between Mayor Fern and the
present Board of Supervisors over the
Mayors appointments, particularly
that of road supervisor, q bill was
sent into the Territorial Legislature
this morning which in effect will
wipe the position of road supervisor
out Of existence. II is a direct slap
at the Mayor.
The bill was introduced by Repre-
sentative Fernandez of Oahu, and is
amendatory to the act creating the
present City and County of Honolulu
Under its terms, the Office of roai
supervisor, which is appointiye, Is
abolished, and that of superintendent
of public streets and highways" is
created The latter position is elec.
tive on the same basis as the sher-
ifs or county attorneys Office, The
salary is fixed at $4,000 a year, and
$4,000 bonds are required If passed
this bill allows thirty days for the
supervisors to name a man TO sue
ceed the present road supervisor.
Under the terms of the act the sup
erintendent of streets and highways is
under the authority only of the super
visors. He is answerable to them, and
the Office is taken entirely away from
the control of the mayor. The bill was
referred to the printing committee 1t

EIGHTH DAY

A Well-detined prospect of financial
differences between the Senate and
House Of Representatives appeared
this morning, When the Senate re-
ceiNed House Con, ttrrent Resolution
NO. 5, appropriatlng 100000 OF the
5000 Federal money for the expenses
of the House and $4,000 for the eX
penses OF the Senate.
The resolution was received in the
Senate, but was not acted upon, being
simply referred to the accounts COM
mlttee but the members of the upper
house are preparing to demand more
money and are resolved to have it,
1t is claimed that the allowance of
one third OF the Federal appropriation
tor the Senate'S expenses is out OF all
reasonable proportion, and that at
least $4,000 is needed, with $4,000 as
a fairer apportionment for the upper
house. In any event, the Senate is
determined to have more than $4,000,
and the House appears to be equally
certain that it needs $4,000, and no
less.
Aside from its current expense APP

WAIALUA FINDS
some TROUBLE
Managers Report Tells of OBJ
staCies In Producing
Sugar.

A good many obstacles to be over
come in sugaryproduction are CON-
mentcd on in the report of Manager
w. w. Goodale of Waialua Agricul-
tural Company, made this morning at
the annual meeting Which was held
at the Offices of Castle & Cooke MI
Goodale says in part:
we began grinding the crop OF
1910 on December 1909 and finished
grinding on August 10, 1910
THE total yield of sugar for the
crop was 30S69 tons or 631 tons less
than my estimate one year ago. A
part OF this shortage, however, was
owing to the fact that we carried over
TO the crop Of 1911 an area of 16S
acres Of unirrigated cane; 1923 acres of
this cane that have been cut to date
produced IA tons sugar and there are
still remaining 50 acres to be Cut for
seed cane or ground and made into
sugar later in the year. The actual
shortage in the crop, which may be
stated as 4S2 tons, was largely owing
to the low Sucrose per cent, in the
cane during the early months of th>
grinding season. and referred to in
my report for the annual meeting of
1910.
"The average yield of sugar per
tons; average sucrose in cane 14S2
per cent
The rainfall during the year has
been about the average on the lower
lands, but heavier than the average
and more evenly distributed on the
upper lands and in the Koolau noun
tains, Although there have been no
long continued storms, there have
been rains that have given us an un-
usually good supply of water in the
upper ditches The cost of water for
irrigation, including repairs to pumps
and bitches and other charges was
$3635 per acre and 1896 per ton of
sugar. The same figures for 1909
were $3S,S3 and $615, and for 1908
$41.67 and $G.6S respectively
"The large No. pumping station at
Kawailoa was shut down entirely dur
ing 2G5 days of the year; No. 3 sta
ton 1877 days; No station So days,
and No / station 81 days.
''The cost of labor expended in irri
eating the crop was s7S6 per ton Of
sugar.
Crop 1911
"We began grinding the crop OF
1911 on December 13. 1910, and have
taken off 3il tons OF sugar to date,
February 18th. The sucrose IN cane
has been very low, as is the case dur
ing the early months of every season
The average to January 3lst, was
1927 q. The average yield of sugar
per acre from irrigated cane was 6
tons, but the yield of cane per acre
averaged 56.G2 tons and il required
9.43 tons of cane to make a ton of
sugar.
The cane tasseled less than during
any year on record.
1T Is estimated that the crop will
be 30.500 tons Of sugar.
Crop 1912.
"The crop of 1912 will be harvested
from 5,23S76 acres.

of 1910 at an earlier date than usual
