REAL ROAD FOR
AID Club STRETCH
SAYS PACHECO

1T is $4,000 to start with and when
the board of supervisors gets
through with that stretch of road on
the other side it will be a permanent
structure of which the AID Club and
all the rest Of us will be proud" said
Supervisor Pacheco this morning re-
ferring to the unanimous vote of the
supervisors at their special meeting
held Saturday noon to proceed with
the improvement of that three and
cne-half miles of road" at Koolauloa.
The roadway will be graded and
thoroughly drained so that we shall
have no more of this fine macadam
road breaking down in the middle. The
foundation will be secure
The foundation will be the telford
or boulder type. The construction will
be graded five feet and drained. II
we have the money, we shall later
have the whole thing macadamized
But under any circumstances you can
bank on 1t that the round-the-island
road will be passable at this point in
all kinds of weather.
I'VE all feel pleased that we have
finally been able to reach a solution
of this problem, and we appreciate
the boosts which the AID Club has Civ
en- in centering public attention on our
efforts.

The JOBS
EDITOR

The pursuit of the elusive political job is not
an industry peculiar to Hawaii Contrary to the
impression gained from the activities of some
clements Of local Democracy, there are other
plums than those that hang on Hawaiian trees.
Up in Maine, where partisan politics is sci
ence and large part of the male population
is pretty constantly in training for a hundred
yard dash or a marathon after a political posi-
ton, there is a situation something akin to that
in this territory. President Wilson's "watchful
waiting" policy may be all right when applied
to Mexico, but when applied to the distribution
of party favors, it is all wrong-in the reasoning
Of some gentlemen Of Maine. Here is what a
leading Maine paper says about it:
AS matter Of fact Maine Democrats are getting
more voracious for Office. apparently. than at any
previous stage under this administration. For the
first few months they did not seem to care. There
was not much crowding around the pie counter. But
this has changed They are writing letters down to
Washington They want to know why 1t is 30 many
Republicans continue In the postoces and why It

BY Postmaster General Burleson's order for the
examination of postmasters in the fourth class post
Offices. good many Maine Republicans have man

are breaking in but not enough to suit the parsans

posed to be able to render zz|s@3 / .<.E r. d
It can be said, however, that Republican post
masters In Maine will not be permitted this autumn
to run headquarters for campaign fayors. It is also
probable that Democratic postmasters had better be
wary on the same score. Republican postmasters
who undertake to help along will be risking their
commissions. Postmaster General Burleson is very
determined man on that score. AS he Is something
OF Democratic partisan there is interest in noting
whether he will be as strict with Democratic post.
masters as he clearly intends to be with Republican
postmasters. In numerous instances he has been
very ready with for busting Republican en-
cumbent whose term had not expired; This has ap-
piled alike to postodices, large and small He will
not relax his vigilance when the state and Congress
sional campaigns get into full swing
It's long way from Maine to Hawaii as the
crow flies, but not as the Democratic donkey
travels it.

WHAT ARE YOUR IDEGS7

Two years ago several of the men now holding
