BISHOPS ROAD PLANS

wan Iva" EoHu commission, present
ed deeply interesting paper on road
construction in Hawaii at. the civic
conference this week in HiIo. Be.
cause Of its constructive suggestions,
the paper deserves attention through.
out the Territory. It is presented be.
low practically in fuII)
would like to cover briefly the
operation of the State Aid plan and
in order to bring it home to you with
a greater force, will endeavor to de-
scribe how the system would be ap-
piled to Hawaii. First of ALL we must
consider the financial side of the pro-
position. There may be said to be
several methods in vogue for raising
revenues for the highway purposes.
These are as follows: Statute labor,
private subscription, assessment OF
abutting property, automobile licenses,
direct taxation, bonds and State Aid
Statute labor has been tried and found
wanting and is now practically obso-
lete Private subscription has been
tried and found satisfactory in some
communities but no great amount of
work has been accomplished under
this plan. The assessment on the
abutting property has been followed
to some extent but is not altogether
satisfactory. Inasmuch as the motor
vehicle is great factor in the des-
truction of our improved roads and
has materially increasing the cost for
their construction, it is no more than
fair that any revenue derived from au-
tomobile licenses and fines should be
devoted to the maintenance of the
public highways. All licenses and
fines should be paid in to, the public
treasury and appropriated by the pro-
per legislative body for maintenance
work. ...
Success Elsewhere.
That the system of bond issue and
State Aid has been successful is evil
denced by the fact that in those States
where this plan has been adopted, the
percentage of improved roads and the
rate of increase is advancing much
faster than in those States and Terri
tories which continued to work under
the old system. The States and Ter
ritories which have failed to adopt
this system to date are at the foot OF
the list In order to show you how
the system of State Aid would work
out in Hawaii, j will endeavor to trace
briefly the steps which it is necessary
to take and to explain how the State
Aid plan operates. 1t will not be me-

HEIRS WIN SUIT
FOR BIG FARM
Statue of Limitation Fails to Hold
Land That Sold For Taxes
Eight Years Ago

A suit somewhat out of the or.
binary for the possession of farm
near Sulphur Rock was settled out
of court on a compromise a few
days ago.
Francis Hardin, who died some
twenty years ago, left farm Of
200 acres, which, by will, he left to
his wife during her lifetime, and
then to his married daughter and
her bodily heirs. About eight
years ago, through their failure to
pay the taxes, the farm was sold
for taxes. 1t was purchased by
Ernest Neill of Batesyille and upon
the failure of the widow and
daughter to redeem the place in
the prescribed time, Mr.. Neill
elected them, took possession and
commenced some improvements
upon the place.
Last spring the heirs of Hardin's
daughter, who is still living, insti-
tuted suit in chancery court to
regain possession of the place. The
suit was settled a few days ago by
their paying the back taxes and
paying for the Improvements which
Mr.. Neil had made upon the farm,
Mr.. Neill giving them a deed to
the place. Attorney ]. r. Alex
ander of this place represented the
heirs.

POLITICIANS LINING
UP FOR NEXT RACE
0ldfield Will Seek Senatorial
Toga---Judge Langford and
Campbell for Congress

The political tread-mill never
grows weary, although who tread
upon it sometimes grow a-weary
from frequent fabrication of the
bearings. Perennially, some re-
former suggests that a lot of our
elections be consolidated, but so
far, it has never gone beyond the
suggestions stage, except for an
occasional bill introduced in the
Legislature which never got be-
yond some funeral committee.
Il was three weeks after the
election held on Sept. 9 before the
complete returns were in the
hands of the Secretary of State
but long before that time the wide
awake politicians were dealing in
futures.
Congressionally, the contests for
next year are shaping up in some
districts before the election in
November is held. There will
be no contests in the First, Fourth
Fifth and Sixth districts, but there
will be some lively times in the
Second and Third, and possibly in
the Seventh,
Billy Oldfeld, now serving his
second term and nominated for the
third, has announced to his friends
that he will be candidate for the
United States States Senate against
James 2. Clarke who is expected
to be candidate for reelection.
His friends predict that he will
make a strong race. This will
bring on a scramble for his sue
cessor, and Judge Eugene Lang
ford, of Deyalfs Bluff, judge of
the Seventeeth Circuit, has al
ready thrown his hat into the ring.
Others will follow, and it is not at
all unlikely that Tom Campbell,
whom 0ldfield defeated the last
time, will be heard from again.

In the case Of hyacinths kindly provision OF

numbers an extremely simple matter. Each

them one OF the two methods is adopted--cross-
ing and scooping. In the of the former the
base OF the bulb is cut across In four or five diff

Instance the whole Of the root end of the bulb Is
scooped away thus leaving a circular cavity.
Whichever process may be adopted the mother
bulbs are carefully stored away in a perfectly dry
place When most of the moisture has passed
away from the bulb a strange thing happens. At
the base Of each mother bulb number of tiny
bulbils begin to put in appearance; the
