CLOSED SEASON
FOR GAME BIRDS
ASKED OF BOARD
Supervisors Receive Petition in
Which Further Stocking of
Island is Suggested

Suggestions signed by 66 residents
Of Oahu who state that they are in
terested N the preservation and propa-
cation of game birds. were received
in the form Of a memorial last night
~ the supervisors.
Among the suggestions made is one
that the birds, instead Of being s:bcrN
ated in a few exclusive districts, be
turned free at Halemanu, Mokuleia,
Male, Pupukea, Makaha, Aiea home
steads, Halawa, Waianae TO Koko
Head. and above HULA
We believe" says the memorial,
that the existing laws are not being
observed, and that to prevent the
wantcn destruction Of breeding birds.
they should for tenn Of say. three
years be wholly and entirely protect
ed from destruction by any means,
and that this proposed extended closed
period. if properly enforced. would
cause the stocking. OF available and
public shooting lands. so as to provide
sport, in its best sense. for all who
care to hunt under permit"
Want Special Officers.
In addition to this three-year pro-
lection, the signers suggest at least
two residents in each district should
be appointed to serve as special po-
lice officers, men who shall serve be-
cause of their interest in game birds
and game in general, and who under
stand the surrounding country Of their
district.
Because of the fact that the mon
goose is known to eat the eggs OF
birds, it is suggested further that this
animal should be captured and inocu-
lated with some virus that win de-
stroy him and his mates.
Following the reading Of the me-
mortal Supervisor Larsen moved at
once that it should be tabled, but Su-
pervisor Logan stood for further con-
sideration of the plans offered.
Il consider this memorial from
courteous citizens" said Logan, that
have every right to be heard and
believe that there is lot of good in
It. There is no reason why we should
snub those who have sent it to u.s."
By vote the memorial was referred
to the police committee for considera-
ton and report

NSTATEMENT ON CLARK INCIDENT
City Engineer Says Supervisors Did Not Say Overseer Should
Be Discharged Action and Letter of Recommen.
dation Show Differently

! mold moved that the city and county
engineer be notified that 1t is the
sense Of the board that as charges
have been preferred against Charles
Clark. road oyerseer for Honolulu dis,
trict by a member of the board that
he be eliminated from his present po
sition and all other work in the city
and county. Seconded by Mr. Larsen
The same was put by the chair and
carried"
Following this action, Deputy City
and County Clerk Buffandeau. carried
out the instructions OF the board by
writing the following letter:
October 6, 1915.
l. NJ. Whitehouse. Esq,
City and County Engineer.
Honolulu. T. H.
Dear Sir:-I desire to notify you
that at a meeting held by the board
tho 5th instant it Is the sense of
the board that you discharge Charles
Clark from his present position and
all other work In the city and county.
Respectfully yours,
E. BUFFANDEAU.
Deputy City and County Clerk.
The Star-Bulletin ascertained this
morning that the letter from the dep
uty clerk was duly sent to and re-
ceived by the city engineers office.
An attache Of the. road department
informs the Star-Bulletin that White
house received and read the letter, so
that he must have known its contents
and the attitude taken by the board.
Says Supervisors Changed Minds.
However, what appears to be the
inside" of the failure to remove Clark
and the manner in which the super
visors are now passing over the in
cident is given in what road de-
partment official said today:
"That letter shows the attitude the
took as a board. How
ever, right afterwards they came
around and said that Clark might be
taken of the Hakipuu job and put
on some other job quietly, and that
is what has been done. Why, the
very next day some Of them were
around saying that it would be all
right to transfer Clark. Mr.. Larsen
said that he believed they were too
hard ON Clark.
The board should rescind its &C.
ton II Clark is to be retained. 1t is
in very unsatisfactory shape now"
Clark has reputation as good
man handling road-gangs. 1t was point
ed out this morning, however, he has
hurt the city service more than bene-
flied ii.

1T is TO be hoped that Senator Lee will
persuade his friend. Mayor Preston. to early
announce that all the city employees will
be free to vote for the candidate Of their
choice without imperiline their livelihood.
This is cardinal feature of the Primary
Law. and the humblest citizen is entitled

Smith are concerned they are fully capable

to Senator Lees unworthy and unfair criti-

The truth is-and repeat it-that in
my judgment Senator Lee has been a
failure in the United States Senate; he is
bitterly disappointed at his lack of success
and his experience in Washington. and
that he is consumed with jealousy OF
Senator Smith. whom he has not been
able to hurt by his attacks any more than
he can hurt me or Mr.. Harrington"
