Mr.. FORBES OVER
PROPOSED ROAD

Charles X. Forbes, superinten-
dent of public works, who arrived
on Kauai last "Wednesday morning
returned to Honolulu Saturday
night apparently well satisfied with
the results of his mission.
The main purpose of his visit
was to go over the lines being es-
tablished by the surveyor of his
department of the proposed rail-
road between the Waipouli home
steads and Ahukiri- particularly
the sections crossing government
lands.
As already explained in these
columns, two routes are being sur
veyed from and near the point at
which the proposed new railroad
will tap the track OF the Lihue
plantation. When the surveys are
completed. they, together with the
Recommendations of the surveyor,
will be submitted to the Lihue
Plantation Comprny a n d h e
government for final decision as
as to which route will be chosen.

A PLAN TO SAVE
COUNTIES MONEY

An agitation has been started to
have the county act SO amended
by the present Legislature as TO
provide for the appointment of
attorneys of the Territorial Attor-
nev-Geueral's 5 Office to handle the
business of the counties of Hawaii.
Maui and Kauai. in place of those
counties electinG their own attor-
neys as at present.
1t is claimed that the attorneys
Of the counties outside of Homo
lulu have the veriest sineCurcs;
that they really have work only
few days at a time three or four
times a year, and that the balance
of the time their services are of no
value to the public at all.
The county attorneys draw from
81. SEQ to $4,000 year apiece,
plus certain amounts for expen-
ses,' total cost to the three
counties of between Sc. 900 and
$4,000. 1t is figured that one of
the attaches of the Territorial At.
tornevGeneral's department could
attend to the whole business at
cost of not over 81, 900 a year per
county, and perhaps much less
than that figure.
The further point is made tina.
such an arrangement would take
the Office and business of county
prosecutor out of politics, which
has come to be regarded as of
great importance. for many rea-
sons.
If the county act is so amended,
it is hoped by the proponents OF
the idea that the amendment NAV
go into effect the first of next July,
so that the elections Of county at
torneys in May next may not b.
found necessary.

WORK OF CANNERY
TO BEGIN SHORTLY

Albert Horner, ST.. and Albert
Horner. Jr., arrived in Lihue dur
ing the week from Honolulu, the
former returning to the city Satur-
day night and the latter remaining
over here to take the management
Of the new cannery which will b.
erected in the near future near
Kapaa.
1t has practically been decided
that the caunery vii. 60 on the
lot near the sea at Kapaa-the
tract originally thought of and
which the Land Board o.k'd. a
year ago. Mr.. Honor, Sr., stated
before leaving for Honolulu that
unless something entirely out of
calculations happened. that site
would be used and that work
would very shortly begin. II
added, however. that a further
talk over the matter would be had
at Honolulu, either Yesterday or
today.
Albert Horner, IT., has made
special study of pineapple canning
and marketing, and is we'll up on
all details of the business. 1t is
predicted that he will make a sue
cess of the enterprise from the
start.
There will be a considerable
quantity OF pineapples ready for
canning the coming summer, and
the plan is to have the cannery
ready in ample time to receive
them. Until there are railway
facilities, motor truck will be
used to transport the fruit to the
cannery.

SALAR|ED MEN TO
GET FINE BONUS

Officers CT Lihue plantation,
drawing from $50 and upward per
month, were made especially hap
py last week by the conclusion Of
the company to pay them bonus
of eighteen per cent on their salar-
les for the past year.
The total to be paid out to each
man will amount to quite a little
sum, as will be readily seen by
figuring. For instance, an officer
dtawing 500 a month, or 81 200
year, will receive S2l6 90 extra
III his bonus stockinG;" while a
man drawing only $50 a month
will get SlOS.OO.
This bonus is figured and allow
ed upon basis Of the profits OF
the company for the year. A bonus
is also paid to laborers and salaried
employees drawing less than $50 a
month, but that is figured upon a
basis of the price of sugar above
$40 a ION, and is more or less uni
form throughout the Territory.
1t is needless 10 say that there
is jov in the camp of the larger
salaried employees of the planta-
tion (of whom there are quite a
number) this week or account OF
the Unexpectedly large bonus.

EXPERT INSPECTS
HOSPITAL SITES
DR.. Sinclair And The Local
tuberculosis Hospital Com
miitee Confer.

s. Or. A. n. Sinclair, superlnten-
dent of 1.ealli Home for Incurables,
Pathologist and superintendent of
the Tuberculosis Bureau of the
Territorial Board of Health, came
over in the Kinau "Wednesday
morning and returned to Homo
lulu in the w. G. Hall, sailing
Friday evening.
The object of his mission was to
look, with the local committee,
over sites which have been sug-
gested for the Sam Mahelona Hos
pital for the Cure of tuberculosis.
In that work he had quite strenu-
Gus time of it, but left feeling that
he had gained quite a clear know
ledge of the local situation.
While here DR.. Sinclair was the
house guest of DR.. and Mrs. Put
man, OF Llhue.
The local committee on the pro-
posed hospital, it will probably be
remembered. consists of Chas, H.
Wilcox, Miss Mable Wilcox, +.
H. w. Broadbent, H. D. Wishard
and F. A. Alexander. On We'd
nesdav that committee accom-
panied DR.. Sinclair through the
Kapaa region and examined the
various sites which had been sug
gested. On Thursday the entire
committee and the specialist went
to the Makawell-W Waimea side and
examined available site there
and around Kekaha.
On Friday return trip was
made to the plateau above Kapaa,
where the site which had originally
impressed DR.. Sinclair was gone
over again.
AS result OF the investigations
it is probably safe to say that the
site above Kapaa will be recon-
mended.
DR.. Sinclair stated that he felt
reasonably certain of being able to
procure from the Legislature the
money needed for maintenance,
inasmuch as the subject of hospi-
tails for the treatment of tuberculo-
sis was just now very much in the
public mind; and, Furthermore, on
account of the splendid donation
by Hon. and Mrs. Albert Will
cox for buildings, the task was
rendered much easier Gil Kauai.
There are those on Kauai who
have felt that site Oil the lee side
of the island, and very high on
the mountains should have been
chosen, and authorities agree that
the contention has real merit. The
specialist seemed to feel, however.
that the Kapaa site, so called, pos
sessed suitable conditions, and had
the further advantage of accessible
ity. The latter is an important
factor, it is claimed, when i t is
considered that the afflicted cannot.

A WARM PRIMARY
NEXT SATURDAY

The Primary Election for the
selection of candidates to be ballot
ed upon in May for county Offices
will be held in all the precincts of
Kauai, during the regular election
hours, next Saturday.
The candidates for supervisors
are as follows: Waimea-)oseph
A. Akina, r. Brandt and David
Kanaiaupuni Hayselden, all r, pub
licans.
Koloa-W. D. McBryde.
Lihue-H. D. Wishard.
Kawaihau-S. w. Meheula, Fred
Mendcs, Lawrence J. Mundon, and
Joe Rodrigues, Republican; and
Lewis Hanohano, Democrat.
Hanalei-A Menefoglio
McBryde, Wishard and Meme
foglio are running to succeed them
selves, and as they have no oppo-
sition will probably be elected
handily in the primary In order
to be SO elected they will have to
have majority of the votes then.
Sharp contests for supervisor
are looked for in the Waimea and
kawaihau districts. In the former,
the majority of guesses seems to be
in favor of Mr.. Brandt, although
the other two men are admittedly
very strong. The situation in Ka-
waihau is even less easy to deter
mine, and 1t will probably not be
until the last vote Is counted that
the high man will be known. Even
then, he will have to run against
Hanohano in Nav. for the latter,
being alone in the field on the
Democratic ticket, is certain of
nomination.
For sheriff there are two candi-
dates il the field-W. H. Rice. Jr.,
Republican, and Joseph I, Demo
Crat. There is no doubt at all of
the final election OF Rice, and he
has a fighting chance of winning
out in the primary by getting Il
majority of all the votes,
J. M. Kaneakua, for clerk; Z.
Maser, for auditor, and S. K. Ka-
60, for county attorney, have no
opposition and will probably be
elected in the primary, if suffici-
ent vote is unless, indeed
something extraordinary occurs to
upset calculations.
A very keen fight will take place
between A. G.. Kaulukou and Har-
old Morgan, b OF Republicans,
for the Office of county treasurer.
Both have strong friends, and the
race at this writing seems to be
neck and neck"
This i s the first primary for
county officials on Kauai under
the new system Of holding the
county elections in May. Officials
elected at this time, or in May,
will take Office the first dly of July
and will serve for two years.

English Cabinet
Not Yet Agreed
On CONSUMPTION

LONDON. Oct. 14-No decision on the
conscription was reached at the cabinet
council yesterday. according to the Daily
News. There was a prolonged discussion
and the conscriptionists ministers
pressed hard for a decision. but failed
to carry their point.
There is little doubt, the Daily News
says, that Lord Kitcheners sympathies
now are definitely on the side OF con-
scription. The Times asserts. however.
that the war secretary has declined to
assume the responsibility of decidins
what course shall be followed He IL re-
ported to maintain that he entered the
cabinet as soldier, not as a politician,
and therefore does not regard himself a.
responsible for choosing the method OF
raising men.
Lord Kitchener has represented TO his
colleagues that recruiting lately has
fallen off seriously and that men mus,
be found somehow, but that he is un-
familiar with social and Industrial con-
ditions in the country and that It is for
him TO state his requirements and for
the country to fill them. Hence, the
Times asserts. the real responsibility now
rests upon the cabinet
1t is generally supposed that Lord
Derby. when appointed director OF re
cruiting. was given six weeks In which
to show whether or not his voluntary
recruiting campaign would be a success.

duce men to enter the army are not
meeting with the success expected and

sion Is becoming stronger
