adjourned at its meeting last Thursday
afternoon there came before the board
the question of providing for the al
most exhausted repairs and mainte.

always divided in two parts, one for
East Hawaii and one for West Hawaii.
The details of the transaction had
evidently all been decided upon at

ton was introduced making the appro-
priation for East Hawaii there was no
discussion and the resolution passed
without hitch.
In this resolution the sum of $25, 200
was transferred from the general fund
of the county to the repairs and mainte
nance fund for East Hawaii, divided as
follows: South Hilo, 10000; North
Hilo, 1000; Haniakua, $500 and Puma,
$4400. II tt'l
