but on Their Own
Terms.

At a meeting of the board of direct
ors of the rapid transit company held
Friday afternoon the policy of the com
pany as to paving the portion of the
streets along which the company has
right of way, as required by law, was
discussed, and General Manager Ballen.
tyne and Attorney Wilmington were in.
structed to formulate resolution ON.

ors. 20
AS result of this conference he.

ana the general manager, the following
resolution. !Yas draftei Yesterday and
communicated to the supervisors:
Resolved, That thqlPolicy of this
company, as to pavinEfs to pave tbe
portion of the street required by law

pavement laid by the city and comfy

race and to its ties and rails
resolved, That the manager he ali.

hto-the supervisors. -
discussing the resolution Mr.. B,llap.
tyne said it simply meant that the com.
,Pany wished to comply with the law

over which the company has right of

DO not intend to be required TO use any
patented article and be compelled n
pay revenue to any patentee. when

Sfrnction can be secured without the
payment of royalties for patent righ+s
We wish to serve the public,s hest

ing the streets as soon as the supervis.
ors take action in the matter. Ii is
now up to the supervisors; it is a mat
ter between them and the public. and
the rapid transit is out of it for the
present"
From this it appears that the com
pany does not intend to take any fur.
ther action in the matter until some
move is made by the supervisors. At
torney Wilmington said that the com
pany had no intention of appealing to
the courts, and that the public would
regard the company proposal as Just
and reasonable.

CHASE THE P0STOFFIcE
CLEAR TO HAUULA

When anybody in Punaluu on the
other side of the island wants to mail
letter or go after one nowadays they
organize search party, arm a posse,
charter the three best cowboys in the
district, and then if they re lucky they
probably get their mail. At least this
forms the general tenor of the re-
marks of Punaluu which are now heard.
They are based on at least one anthem
tic incident.
The other day there was a change of
postmasters, William MeQuaid having
been made the presiding genius of the
postage stamps for Punaluu. One lady
in liauula, however, neglected to as
certain this, Last week she started out
one blithe morning to mail a letter,
which meant in that district of wide
spaces, that she would probably take a
iaunt of two miles there and about the
same coming back,
She was almost at the old post office
site when she met the post Office com
ing along the road in a dump cart to
meet her, She tagged it but it didn 7
stop. j pursued a dignified but de-
every time it hit chuck hole.
The lady WASH Z going to walk four
miles for nothing She got in line,
The post Office took its leisurely way.
Tho lady trotted along in procession
and when the perambulating posts came
to halt right near her own home she
bought a two cent stamp. licked il out
of spite and mailed the letter.

returned by Mr.. Swanzy, the agent for
Mrs. Judd, at $1,000 and the assessors
figures were $64S0. The land in Manoa
Valley was valued by Mr.. Swanzy at
$4,000. The assessor raised the valu-
alton to $4,000. The court found in its
decision that the property on Kalakaua
avenue was worth $4905, while the
Manoa Valley lands were worth the
full amount placed upon them by the
assessor.
With the rendering of these decisions
the work of the appeal court is con-
cluded. Five appeals were considered
and the court tended to favor the
assessors figures rather than those of
the appellants. F. NJ. Swanzy has the
distinction of being the principal or
agent in all the appeals.

MILLION DOLLARS FOR
PEARL HARBOR DOCK

Rear Admiral Cowles has received
the list of appropriations available for
Pearl Harbor work for the new fiscal
year. The items include the extension
of the Pearl Harbor drydock, million
dollars being set aside to continue all
the work, which will include about
100000 for the 2OOfoot extension
alone.
The question or whether the extern
sion will be added to the shore or har-
Dor end will soon be determined by the
naval engineers. AS already reported
there is more likelihood of the extern
sion being added on the harbor end as
the work there will involve less work,
whereas the difficulties at the shore end
are great. Test piles are to be driven
by the engineers at the harbor end to
determine the character of the bottom
material. Five piles are to be driven.
The list of items follows:

IMPERIAL VALLEY ROAD IS
DELAYED; NO ACTION YET

San Diego Sun: If San Diego does
not have a road built all of the way 10
the Imperial county line within the
next few weeks it will be because the
county supervisors or others in au-
thority do not get busy and get some
action out of the officials in Washing
ton, according to members Of the
county highway commission. The
commissioners declared this morning
that they have all of the rest of the
route completed, and are now waiting
on someone to take the question Of
permit to build the part which goes
the Campo Indian reservation
up with Senator Works or someone in
Washington and get the department
of the interiors permission to go
ahead with the work.
1T is a shame that this hasn't been
done before" said Commissioner Isbell
today. There we have all the rest
of the route completed, and could
build the part through the reservation
very soon if we had the governments
permission. | think this should have
been called to the attention of the

INFLUENCE OF BLIND PIGS
AND SOURCE OF SUPPLY

Editor Press-Dear Sir: My atten
ton has been called to an article i'll
the Imperial County Enterprise OF
July %, under the heading, Blind
Pigs Are Cause of Murder" "El Cen
tro Is Scene of Awful Crime" etc.
Owing to the indetiniteness of the
writer of the article. | am not quite
able to locate the exact place of the
awful crime" referred to, nor have
| been able to learn the names of any
Of the principals connected with the
alleged awful crime"
A negro woman, named Annie Mar
tin, said to be an eX-convict, had 2
preliminary hearing before me last
Monday on a charge of shooting Il
negro man named Rudy Parsin, now
rapidly recovering. on the morning OF
July 10, on the east side of the rail
road, in the negro quarter. She wa
held to answer in the sum of $4,000.
No motive was assigned for the at
tempted murder. There was nothing
produced during the progress of the
trial to indicate that Intoxicating
liquors played any part in the affair.
but | would not for moment question
the correctness of the conclusion of
the Enterprise that blind pigs. where
there are no licensed saloons. are he
hot beds and breeding place of all
kinds of outlawry, and such tragedies
as the Enterprise says occurred in Ell
Centro recently, is a very natural Sc
quence of their existence
But | am so accustomed to hearing
the truth. the whole truth and moth
ing but the truth" that I am disposed
to further inquire into the source of
El Centros "Outlawry," and the En-
terprise seems to be in a better posi-
ton to give that information than any
witness heretofore before me.
Within the last sixty days a num-
Der of charges of illegal sales of in
toXicating liquors, drunks and dis
orderly conduct have been tried before
me. l always inquire as to where the
parties get their liquor. and the in
variable answer thus far has been
from Imperial"
Therefore, unless there is some sub
stantial controverting testimony pro-
duced, l am disposed to pronounce
judgment against Imperial for being
a party to the crimes that the Enter
prise charges to Ell Centro.
l concede that Ell Centro has a task
en- her hands in attempting to rid
herself of the blind pigs and their
consequent evils, when Imperial, just
four miles north. has sanctioned by
law the very thing that not only Ell
Centro. but the entire county, has
since its foundation tried TO rid itself
OF And if one is TO believe a state
