The proposition of the extension

majority voted against extending
the system under the present circum'

need more lights; and also that we
need more aud better sidewalks, and
that if possible, steps should be
taken to secure both.

The grand jury has approved
the report and recommends to the
proper authorities that the sugges-
tions contained in the within report
be needed and adopted and that the
repairs and improvements to which

The fact that this grand jury has
Investigated all matters which have

COAST MEN THINK
KANSAS CITY IS
COMING


Officers Of the Matson liner WiIhel.
nina reported on arrival today that
the Kansas City, the passenger and
freight steamer of the Union Iron
Works Company, has left the drydock
at San Francisco and the report is
current on the San Francisco water
front that the steamer is being SEIZED
uled to come to Honolulu the latter
part OF this month.
This would mean, If true, that the
Kansas City is to substitute for the
Oceanic liner Sierra, which is now on
the drydock, at least until December
when the Sierra's repairs have been
completed and II the Sierra goes on
the Australia-San Francisco run after
leaving the drydock. then the Kansas
City probably would remain perma-
nently en- the local Honolulu-San Fran
cisco route.
The Oceanic company's local agents,
c. Brewer & Company, have heard
nothing officially concerning the Kan
sas City.

SAYS MINERS MAKE BEST
SOLDIERS FOR TRENCHES
lBy Associated Press)

MANCHESTER, Eng. From Man.
chester officer who has been in
France since the beginning of the war,
serving with the British staff. the
Manchester Guardian has CLEANED
some interesting views as to the char-
acter of the different varieties Of
British soldiers in the test of war.
In the opinion of the officer the best
soldier is the examiner. He prefers
the miner because he is strong in
the back and used to dangers and
explosions; because he can endure
cramped positions in the trenches;
because his ears are quick, because
he is curious about sounds, because
he is intelligent The miner puts
two and two together much more
quickly than any other class of men.
