The earliest Of the large leases to expire is
that of Waalua but even that is out of the term

New leases of these lands will be made sub

The land office records show no large leases

Of office One lease Of about 5000 acres will
soon be made, that of the Wahikuli lands of
Maui, which have been held by Pioneer Mill
Company and are now being surveyed to fix
their boundaries. These lands will be offered
for new lease soon.
Present leasehOlders have nothing to fear
from Pinkham administration or from any 9th

The land office is authority for the statement
that there is no danger of any forfeiture of ex-

GETTING AFTER THE DUST

Supervisor Wolter is to he heartily commend-
ed fer the energetic manner in which he is taking
mp the dust nuisance and pressing for measures
tc abate il. And Supervisor Petrie chairman of
the road committee shows a spirit that will be
generally appreciated in assuring the board that
something is going to be done
Two more sweeping-carts are to be purchased
and the permanent paving of streets to be car
ried along as rapidly as possible. More sprink-
lers may be bought, but this is not decided.
A general tightenins-ip and speeding-up of
the STRENGTHENING organization both as to per-
sennel and equipment, is needed and will, the
community is now told, be effected. Permanent
paving will do little to abatd the dust nuigance
unless the paved streets are swept, flushed with
water and scraped clean at regular and frequent
Intervals. Whether more can be done with the
present equipment of the department, none of the
city officials seems to know; but all are frank
ia admitting that the dust Nuisance is both un-
pleasant and insanitany, and that there is vast
rocn for improvement in results
The community would like To see the supersi-
scrs make a special point of this anti.dust activ-
itF, to devote serious attention to it until they
have solved the problem ~

which is a shortage OF $5,5S5.50, when
compared with the same period last
year. However, the difference was
rapidly being made up this morning,
and by tomorrow evening, in the opin-
ion of treasurer Mccarthy, the cox
lections will show an amount equal to
that of last year for the same time.
The confusion arising over the re-
quirements set down by the new IL
cense statute. which recites that an
applicant, before being granted a Ii
cense, must show that all taxes due
have been paid, which showing is
made by a certificate from the tax
collector, is. fast clearing. This was

them the necessary certificates,

threats were made that he did not

It was upon this question P. L.

that by the statute all taxes for the
year must be paid before license can
be issued, the former holding that only
those taxes must be paid which would
be delinquent if not paid at the time

: ing the board in general and Super
visor Petrie. chairman Of the road COM
mittee, in particular The dust is
worse in the city now than it has
! ever been. Tourists come here, and
after being caught in the cloud Of
dust along the street, they make haste
to leave. They realize that dust is a
breeder of disease / urge Supervisor
petrie to get more sprinkling carts .
Replying, Supervisor Petrie stated
that the road committee plans to pur-
chase two more street sweeping ma
chimes; he said that one was already
In service. and that 1t was planned to
get two more when repairs on King
street were finished. He did not mem
ton the sprinkling carts.
Before the meeting was over, Super
visor Wolter again brought up the sub
ject and showed his determination to
force the issue and have the dust
problem satisfactorily disposed of. He
renewed his appeal for sprinklers.
1T is necessary to protect our
health that something be done to lay
the dust. The sweeping machines will
help a great deal. and / therefore do
urge upon you again. Mr.. Petrie, that
no time be lost in procuring the ma
chimes, concluded Supervisor Wolter.
The beard showed itself to be fa-
vorably inclined toward Supervisor
VOTERS request, and Supervisor Pc
ttrie gave his assurance that the ma
, chimes would be bought soon.
I'VE can well afford to buy them, "
Wolter had said during his speech.
I'VE have bought many things, of far
less need, requiring more money. This
is a problem, not only one of health,
but the entire beauty of the city is
concerned. With the thoroughfares
as they are now, we can never expect
to have either a most desirable city
| or a healthy one. So the relatively
small sums it will cost to do away
with the dust problem can well be af-
fcrded. The board is behind Mr.. Pc

will be cooperatcd Ely
