feet long. If this fellow should serve

Kula Farming Prosperity.
As all the corn of the Kula farmers
who were willing to dispose of their
crops at $1.35 per cwt. has been sold,
there was another advance of Is cents
per cwt this week The tendency of
the farmers now is to hold on to their
crops until they get top notch prices.
Two farmers who have approximately
one thousand bags, say that they will
not sell their corn until the 50 mark
is reached
AS the weather still continues dry,
1t is probable that the potato crop
will be seriously affected.
The price of Kula produce is quoted
by the farmers as follows: Corn,
$3.50 per cwt. beans, 50 per cwt.;
potatoes 50 per cwt.; eggs, 80 cents
per dozen.
Whooping Cough Deaths.
Last summer when the epidemic of
whooping cough broke out it appeared
only in the homes of few families,
| but when the school was reopened it
spread very rapidly to almost every
home in Kula, and as a result three
infants have died from it. 1t is evi.
dent that the school is responsible
for the spreading of the disease and
the death of the youngsters. During
| the last two sessions of the legisla-
ture Superintendent Pope, of the De-
partment of Public Instruction, re-
peatedly called the attention of the
! legislators to the epidemics of infec-
tious or contagious diseases that fire.

The Keokea and the Kealahou
schools are very crowded. There are
over eighty children crowded into one

INTBR-ISbAND HAPPENINGS

document of 1882 which merely, in so
many words, gave the promoters the
right to conduct a telephone in Hilo
and Hamakua, without specifying the
obligations of the company or the
rights of the public. Filler suggested
it would be wisdom for the company
to put the franchise in the proper
hands for the company's own protec
ton and have the rights and privileges
and duties clearly set forth. The
Screed may have been all right in 1SS.
tut it certainly did not fit modern con
ditions and laws.
During the course of his remarks,
Filler, who is qualified to estimate,
said that in five years Hilo would have
population of $4,000. His estimate
may be taken as conservative. All
the more reason, thought he, that a
growing town should have a telephone
system in proportion to it's progress,
Filler thought that the men compos-
themselves good guarantees were in
themselves good guarantees of the
fulflment of the promises made for
an improved service.
However, the object of the meeting
appeared to be accomplished. The
officers of the telephone company were
thereby acquainted with what the COM
panys patrons thought of the present
service; they admitted the service was
unsatisfactory at present, promised
that everything possible would be
done, and as soon as possible, to give
entire satisfaction. There would be
no dividends declared this year; what
money was needed would be sent and
the manager had full authority to use
judgment as to how best to put the
system in apple-pie order,
The meeting was long and earnest
and many spoke. It lasted over two
hours and, at the end of that time, q
better feeling and complete under
standing prevailed. A better telephone
service may be looked for soon, il
fact it is EXPECTED to improve day by
day as Mr.. Stone and his forces ge

HlLO, January 19.-For clearing the
atmosphere and other effects, the earn
est gathering of over hundred repre-
sentative Hilonians in the Y. NJ. l..
hall Saturday afternoon, to discuss the
telephone service, was a great sue
cess.
The meeting WIS called as a result
of Attorney Carl S. Carlsmith and
others celebrating over the unsatis-
factory telephone service on various
preceding occasions in the office O.
the lawyer named, At 3 o'clock the
hall was comfortably filled. Carlsmith
presided.
Officers of the telephone company
gracefully admitted that the service
was not what it should be, but eX-
planned that the putting in of a new
switchboard and other improvements
could not be expected to be accom-
plished in a moment and that Mana
ger Stone had been given full author
ity to spend what was necessary to
make the service effective and salts
factory. There was a great deal of
territory to cover, and, in about six
months, there should be no cause for
complaint, Ten thousand dollars had
recently been spent for new material.
Carlsmith read numerous communi-
cations of complaint, addressed to the
meeting. D. f. MetZger moved for the
appointment of a committee of five to
confer with the directors of the teie-
phone company with a view to repre-
senting the public in the matter of
effecting a better service. Rev, S. L.
Desha seconded this motion.
John Scott thought this somewhat
discourteous; the telephone company
admitted, in the light of the present,
ments, that the service was not what
it should be, but the officers of the
company, in the meeting, had endeav
ored to assure the public that, granted
little time, the lines would be rem
dered satisfactory.
c. c. Kennedy thought if such d
committee was appointed it might as
well be given authority to take over
everything in Hilo.
Metzger, in view of the assurances
of the company's representatives, was
only too glad to withdraw his motion
for a committee, his second being will
ing, and the motion was withdrawn.
Manager Stone, new man, anc
necessarily laboring under some diff
ficulty at the start, explained the mum
erous faults with the system, th'
crowding of party lines, the long re
pair distances, the breaking of wire
by railroad dynamiting, effects o
lighting, the work attendant upon thu
putting in of the new switchboard
and so forth. AS for overworking anC
