STRIKE IN
THE BAND

A strike OF some members of the
Hawaiian band is not remote con
tingency according to a movement of
disaffectiun that has started in the
tuneful body
In the new appropriation bill, that
for the ensuing half year, the super
vsors raised the salary of acting
bandmaster Naone $25 a month and
that of assistant bandmaster Baker
$1j, leaving the pay of the other
bandsmen as it was.
This action of the board is regard
ed by at least some of the boys as
savoring of favoritism toward the
two chief musicians. A committee
of five of them prepared petition to
the mayor and supervisors, asking FOR
readjustment of the pay schedule
whereby certain salaries should be
fixed according to the instruments
played and not with relation TO the
time the respective players have serv
ed in the band. The plan involves
, some individual increases.
The petition was left at the mayors
office yesterday but has since been
withdrawn, and it is said that the
members of the committee will per
sonally appear before the board to
night and ask that their wishes bt
considered. They have seen some
of the supervisors individually, but al
the satisfaction they received, accord
ing to what they said in the mayor
office, was the growled reply:
Nothing doing; the band has so
all it will get"

Irish potatoes can be produced in
the Hawaiian Islands equal, if not
superior, to those grown on the main
land, according to S. T. Starrett, sup
erintendent of the market division
who has the potatoes to prove the
assertion.
Some months ago, Starrett supplied
some Early Rose seed potatoes to a

the sand on the beach within 80 feet

his crop recently and the potatoes

anywhere" said the superintendent
this morning.

growers did not use good seed.

c. w. Spitz, the Kauai wholesale
liquor dealer, is in Honolulu and an
interested observer of the discussions
of the Oahu liquor commission. lie
says that, despite criticisms and adj
mitting some defects, the Kauai solu-
ton Of the problem is the best one.
That solution is no retail saloons on
the island The system has been in
effect for some years now.
IF you are going to have retail
saloons on Kauai you would have to
have so many small ones that none
of them could pay" said Spitz. The
camps are far apart and each might
want one As it is now the men get
what liquor they want through the
wholesale houses That is the way
the matter should be handled in all
the country districts.
"a saloon near a plantation is al
ways a place where men who lay of
will go and loaf for a day or so, get
ting drunk and unfit for work. They
don't do that now on Kauai. OF
course it may be that there are some
blind pigs, but they are not as bad
as saloons. Oahu would be better of
with the Kauai system in the country
districts than with a small saloon
