kauai GETS CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH

Dr.. Pratt, president of the Board
of Health, accompanied by DR.. Nc
Coy, Federal physician, fr o III
Washington, came up by the Kinau
last Wednesday morning and made
a hurried trip throughout the is
land on a tour of inspection. Par
ticular attention was paid to the
Hanalei District where visit to the
school was made during which time
an examination of a number of
children S throats was made with a
view of ascertaining whether or not
uiptheria germs we re present.
DR.. Yanagihara did the examining
and will begin the culture for the
development of germs that might
be in the throats of the children.
DR.. Pratt reports conditions in
general, very satisfactory and hopes
in time to abolish all possibilities
of further outbreaks of diptheria
Sub-inspectors to the number of
seven will be appointed by the va
rious plantations on the island, the
appointive power being left entire
ly with the managers. These sub
agents will work under the direc-
ton of the chief inspector for the
island, who will make it his duty
to see that his instructions a r c
carried out.

YOUNGSTERS ARE BEING GATHERED in

Miss Mumford, principal OF the
Lihue School, assisted, by a truant
officer, has been busiily.. engaged
for the last month in rounding up
a lot of children of school age who
had never been enrolled in the re-
gister Some of them were eleven
years of age and hadTesided right
in Lihue all their lives and Just
why they had not been apprehend-
ed before, is not for the reader to
know or question. Suffice to say
that there were forty seven of these
little urChins, whose presence in
school at this date has caused an
upheavel since the latest fad is to
promote child according to age ir-
respective of ability, which fact ma
turally makes it difficult for the
teacher to bring the class up even
ly, If the department were as sue
cessful in digging up teachers for
these extra children as is NJ 5 5
Mumford in finding them, more OF
the credit which is due her for this
excellent piece of work, mi sht be
side tracked in favor of the Board

The TOWN site FOR LIHUE IS NEXT

Now that the harbor is practi-
cally assured for this place, what
are our land owners going to do to
show their appreciation of this
fact" remarked a prominent man
to a reporter this morning. We
could not reply to this question.
Wish we could, for there is no
other place in existence where a
County Seat has been established
and the amount of business trans
acted as i S done in Lihue that
does not claim the distinction of a
town site. There is no town site
here nor in any other part of the
island unless it is at Waimea and
we are rather under the impression
that such does II OF even exist
there, old as it is.
With the harbor coming here
some one will have to loosen up
and for the best interests of all
concerned, the So .Cr.

tion for what has been granted US,
would create an awkward situa-
tion to say the least. Let us get

HONOLULU PAPERS FRAME TICKETS

for the introduction of men whom

The Bulletin is accused by its con-

AS to Honolulu politics, we'll
known n d prominent political
worker from Honolulu stated to a
reporter of this paper recently that
the coming election campaign i'll

NAWIL|W|L| BAY DRAWS
THE VERY FIRST BLOOD

AS pre- di c tie d by THE GAR
DEN ISLAND in its last issue, Ma
wiliwili has received Major Woot-
ems recommendation for Kauai S
port of entry. The original idea
was to secure a port of entry for
Kauai regardless of location. All
necessary papers were drawn tor
the proper presentation o the
Rivers and Harbors Commission,
;HS'en division of opinion came in
some way which resulted i'll a split
between parties, some co ming out
for Eleele, while others favored
Nawilwili. The Rivers and Har-
bors Commission took the matter
up and in order to satisfy every
body concerned, made a survey Of
the most important harbors of the
island. Finally it became evident
that there were but two possible
ports to be corsidered-Nawiliwi-
Ii and Eleele.
The former harbor has been but
recently surveyed a II reported
upon which II turn has APP
parently received immediate atten-
ton from the department N Wash
ington, as Major Wooten's report
would indicate.
There were very good reasons
given by both factions why the
port should have been given them.
Eleele for instance, claiming that
she had already expended half
million dollars towards harbor i'm
provements, that more sugar was
shipped from its port than all
other island ports combined, that
a harbor could be built at less eX'
pense and last but not least, in
fact that which appealed to the
e9ver1iment officials most particu'
1rly, was an offer of free towf
site.
fLihue, put up equally strong
reasons why she should be the
favored port, chief among which

A WHIPPING POST BADLY NEEDED

Such fiendish attacks by druck-
EN- husbands upon helpless women
and children as that made by a
Hanamaulu resident one night last
week, would justify the re-esta-
blishment of the whipping post.
Such men (if they can be termed
mem should be allowed to sober
up in Jail after which public fog
ging should be administered.
The case to which reference is
made, was one wherein a drunken
wretch returned home about half
past ten o'clock and proceeded to
literally throw his family, w h o
had long since retired, from the
house. The fact that the wife had
but recently undergone a serious
operation did not enter the mind OF
the drunken bully who with threats
and the vilest of language, ke p
the poor frightened mother II d
children croutching on the cold
dewy grass and in the chilly night
air until the police arrived which
was more than two hours after
they had been snatched from theii
beds, thrown out, with no chance
of returning for more clothing foi
fear of their very lives.
He was finally taken to Jail, and
after SOLDERING up II d receiving
some very valuable advice, wa:
the next morning permitted to re
turn to his family. A revival o
the whipping post method wherein
a brute of this sort of human para
site becomes a public exhibition il
such instances, would very likely
have a wholesome effect on wifi,
beaters, who are so prone to bull,
it over the unprotected and inde
fensible weaker sex.

were her safety from Kona storms,
her central location, h er close
proximity to about the only un-
developed part of the island, the
location of the County's business
and the chief passenger port of
the island.
In his report Major Wooten
states that the difference of cost
of the two harbors would be a
matter of about $50, 900. OF course
this is simply a recommendation
to the Rivers and Harbors Com
mission and does not mean that
the fight for the port of entry is
pau by any means, but it does,
however, indicate that 10 the en-
gineers, Nawiliw.li ould be
the best place'for such port. .
This much can be said, however,
that no one should have it known
that kauai's harbor had been de-
layed through any attempt at per
sonal spite work. If its to be Ma
wiliwili, let us all unite ins doing
all we can to hustle it along. The
Mahuka site dispute should be a
lesson to us. Let us keep up the
reputation Kauai has always held
as a united Kauai. 1t is all right
to bicker over matters during a
squabble, but once the question is
settled, we should forget the little
differences and put our shoulders
to the wheel and heave to. THE
GARDEN ISLAND congratulates
those who have labored in the in
terest of Eleele harbor, and now
that another harbor has been re-
commended, feels sure that these
same influences will be directed
towards completing the necessary
details for an early commence
ment on Kauai's port of entry.
Likewise, this paper congratulates
those who interested themselves in
securing the harbor for Nawili-
will.

GREAT DANGER FROM The RABBIT PEST

The recent warning cry against
the rabbit pest is one deserving of
more than passing comment. For
instance, Kauai is liable to find
itself in su c h predicament.
There are at present, tame rabbits
to the extent of hundreds, being
kept by every Tom -Dick-and-
Harry throughout the island, peo-
pie in all stations of life, and none
of whom give hang whether their
pets" get out of the running pen
or not. 1t is not an uncommon
thing to see pet" rabbits skip
ping acr oss lawns lodging through
fences ETC., as one rides along the
public highway. ....
When one considers the enor-
nous amount of damage these in
4ocent little creatures might be
able to accomplish were they al
lowed to,hourish at will, he can
not but realize the gravity of the
situation. Like every other living
animal, they must eat, and when
all til garden vegetables have
been destroyed, an attack will be
made on the young cane with re-
suits so destructive as to be almost
beyond calculation,
The most effective way of Riding
the island of this new danger
would be to enact a law prohibit
ing the keeping of any rabbits OF
the premises, and to Immediately
kill all those at present found on
the island. Our advice to all
owners of these pests is to kill
them and thereby give the com
munity in which you live, ne
chance to accuse you of aiding il
the propagation of one of the
greatest -to-be-feared enemies
