KoHALA's DIRT ROADS Ar
PRESENT.

Just now, with the exception Of
about two miles of light-topped rock
road. Kohala plantation and store
freight is paying the highest traffic
rates known anywhere in the world
When you consider the high prices OF
imported mules and imported barley
and take a look at a four-muIe
team being mauled and torturned
through the mud with an almost
empty wagon, you will realize that 1t
costs from FIVE to ten times as much
to move q ton Of freight over our
roads, In their present condition land
that has been their chronic condition
for almost a year as 1t does to move
ton of goods in communities pro-
gressive enough to have good roads.
In other words, we submit to a
freight tariff imposed by our own
shiftlessness which. IL imposed on us
by any common carrier, would make us
rush to the Interstate Commerce
Commission, or the Public Utilities
Commission with a howl of protest
that could be heard across the Sa-
hara.
But no one is robbing US, by this
enormous cost of moving our goods,
except our own consent to leave our
roads In politics May this soon be
remediedl --Kohala Midget. ~ IL.

ing the signing of the secret treaty,
