If we were to wait for the
present system of road making
to get lis out of the mud, the
child born to-day would be older
than the Wandering Jew before
it comes to PASS. The county is
wasting, yea, worse than wasting
hundreds of dollars every year in
an alleged attempt to better the
roads.

ment this fell to IL cents a ton

saving of 8 cents per mile on
$40, 900 ton mile" is SAL, 900 a
year. The county's investment
of $500, 600, in other words, re-
turns a dividend of 40 per cent
annually. a
Because this saving, in cases of
this character, does not take the
form of cash put directly into the
farmers pocket there is a wide
spread tendency to believe that
it is fictitious profit, while as a
matter Of fact it is just as real a
source of profit as an increase
in the price of wheat.

however, is the increase shown
in the quantity of the dairy pro-
ducts. In 1909 these amounted
to LA, S15 pounds, in 1911 to 273,-
02S pounds, AN increase shown in
the quantity of practically 14O
per cent in two years. In the
same time shipments of wheat
had increased SO per cent, tobacco
81 per cent and lumber and other
forest products AZ per cent.
In addition to this increase in
quantity the cost of hauling each
ton of produce was materially re-
duced. In other words, the far
mers not only produce more, but
produce more cheaply, for the
cost of transportation to market
is Of course an important factor
in the cost of production. From
this point of view it is estimated
that the roads in Spottsylvania
county saved the farmers of that
county SAL. 1000 a year.
In the past two years the traffic
studies OF the Federal experts
show that approximately an aver.

George Chalmers Comes Out
Victor in Contest Over lob
of Luna at Waimanalo

From Waimanalo comes the echoes
of conflict dusty, scrappy contest
between His Honor Mayor Lane and
George Chalmers Of Waimanalo. And
Chalmers was the victor.
Not that the chief executive Of the
city and county Of Honolulu descended
to such thing as rough and tumble
fight-it was battle of words and
wills--but the little Scotchman won,
though he claims that the mayor is
how using his official power to spite
the victor, and thereby salye his own
Injured feelings. ~
In short. the upshot of the matter
was that C5almers told Lane he was
playing cheap peanut politics and the
mayor, Chalmer AYERS, to get even, has
absolutely ignored all communications
from Chalmers on road matters in the
Waimanalo district, and has been re-
sponsible for such neglect of the pub
lie highways there that the Waimanalo
plantation. of which Chalmers is man.
ager. has had to get out its own teams
and drag the roadway to make it at
all passable. IF

Of his district. Something more than
a month ago the supervisors decided
&c spend some money on much needed
repairs In Chalmers district, and ac-
cordingly the word went forth, and
Chalmers set about a score of men,
mostly Hawaiians, to work on a
stretch of highway about seven miles
from Honolulu. +.:
On the first day Chalmers went out
to take look at what progress was
being made, and there, acting as luna,
he found John Kalaukoa, who was
some years ago a member of the city
police force, and was fired -for cause,
as the records show.
WHO sent you here, demanded
Chalmers.

tactfully. but forcibly. II have two

pervisors hold a public hearing on
the proposed postponement of the new
water and sewer rates legalized by the
official board d. few weeks ago and
which the Chamber of Commerce and
others wish to have postponed until
meters are installed
The hearing will be on a resolution
introduced by Supervisor Larsen. The
ordinance enacted for the transferring
of the water and sewer works to the
city and county specifies that new
rates must be established by the city
before July 1, 1915, and to carry out
the intention of this ordinance Super
intendent Murray of the water works
conducted complete survey of the
water works and then submitted the
rates which he deems equitable to the
supervisors and the latter officials le-
galized them.
1t is a question, therefore, whether
or not the city can postpone the going
into effect of the new rates without
repeating the ordinance. An opinion
on this question may be asked of the
city attorney this afternoon.
! When the Manoa improvements
commence the city water works de-
partment must expend about $4,000
as required by law for new mains, and
this item is not listed in the budget.

able receipts under the present rates.
