SUPERVISOR'S MEET.
The monthly mooting of the
County Supervisors was held this
week, beginning on Tuesday with
all of the members present. '
After the rearding of the minutes
of the previous meeting reports of
various ofheers were taken up. The
report of the County Engineer
covered the work done and that of
lie work under contemplation.
The work for each district was laid
out for the present month and the
same given fully and definitely.
The report of the Countv Super
intendent of Roads dealt with the
work being done, of changes made
and of others to be nado and re
quested authority to institute a
system by which the amount of
work for each day may bo known
and the cost of every branch of the
work may be known definitely at
the close of each day. He further
.asked authority to dismiss any
employee who is found to be in
efficient. The report of the County Attor
ney showed that an unusual
amount of work has been done by
his department during the month.
The work has require the services of
himself or his deputy nearly every
day of the month and most of the
time both of them. In a great
majority of the cases convictions
were secured by his department
Hisreport showed that the greater
number of arrests were made hi
the Wailuku District and in Ma
kawao District while lite people ot
Lahaina seemed to have been on
their good behavior during the
whole month and but two arrests
were made there and one of them
was' acquitted.
The report of the County Sheriff
called attention to the fact that
the Jailor had forbidden him to
use the Jailors office for the pur
pose of giving instructions to the
ofheers and asked that he be given
the use of the office now occupied
by the County Engineer and the
County Superintendent of Roads
for such purpose and that the
Hoard securo tho offices over the
First National Bank for the use of
these two officers. As it is the
policy of the Board to use as much'
economy as possible tht'y seemed
to be of the opinion that the Sheriff
could use the large office ho occu
pies for the purpose of giving in
structions to liismen and in case
that is not satisfactory then that
he might use the room used' by the
Board.
The report called particular at
tention to the fact that a most de
liberate murder having been com
mitted on the 23rd day of Septem
ber at Paia and asked the authori
zation of a reward for tho appre
hension and conviction of tho mur
derer of murderers; The Board
authorized tho payment of a re
ward of 50.00 for this purpose.
'J ho approval of tho appoint
ment of John Forreira and Mo?ses
K. Kekua as police officers was
granted.
Applications for, tho position of
Hack, Sanitary, and Fish Inspect
or and Humane officer were made
by Peruvia Goodnoss, Manuel
Dutro, Carl F. Rose, Thomas Clark,
Itev. J. Nua, GeorgoII. Cummings,
and Harry Eld red go were rccoived
and action on the same wasldoforr
ed as the authority of such officer
J : V.j' .tit.,'..'", ftuii ln.siii' A.
was now questioned in Lahaina
where an officer had condemned
fish as being in an unsanitary con
dition while the .lap owner of tho
fish claimed the fish in a sanitary
condition and was about to have
the officer arrested on a charge of
mnJioious injury.
A communication from Governor
Frear relative to the bond issue
was by far the most important
communication received. Tl was
in full as follows:
Executive Chamber,
Honolulu, Hawaii, Sept. 24, 1.107.
Wm. Henning, Esquire.
Chairman, Board of Supervisors,
Wailuku, Maui,
Dear Sir: I received your
letter yesterday of the 43th instant
asking my assistance in obtaining
the Presidents consent to the is
suance of county bonds and sug
gesting that Mr. Campbell, Treas
urer oi tho Territory, now in the
east might speak to the President
in this behalf and referring to vari
ous laws and past correspondence
up on the subject. I have glanced
over the laws and also the past
correspondence and shall be glad
to do what I can to assist your
Board in this matter.
I doubt if Mr Campbell will be
able to do any thing during his
present visit in the east as his visit
will soon close. Moreover he can
not recommend any definite action
for want of proper papers.
I suggest that you furnish a full
statement to the President to act
upon.
This should go through the
Secretary of the Interior. I can
then address a letter to the Secre
tary to accompany this statement,
making such such recommenda
tions as may seem best. As you
are aware, Act 139 of tho last ses
sion authorizing the issuance
of these bonds is by its teiins, to
take effect only upon the date of
its approval by the President.
i hardly think that this can be
construed as bearing'uppn the ap
proval of the bond issue by the
President. The President's atten
tion should, of courso lie called to
this provision and it would bo for
him to say what it means and if in
his opinion it means the act its
self, to receive his approval it
would of course rest witn him to
say whether he would give it such
approval. That would not be ap
proval of tho kind required, by the
Governor to acts passed by the
legislature, that is by signature
of the act its self but approval
might be given by the President
in writing without having the ori
ginal copy of the act before him.
Respectfully yours,
W. F. FREAR,
Governor
P. S. I should add that there is
at least a serious question as to
whether a law can be mado to take
cfTect upon such a contingency,
and of course tho President might,
as a question of policy, not care to
take action of this kind.

Hoe Sport's Sake and Glory.
Honolulu, October 5. Tho Atkin
son Baseba'i League of Kakaako was
officially born last evening amid most
favorable influences, not only A. Tj
C. Atkinson himself bo'ini! nresont.
- , ,
' but Colonel Samuel Johnsou presidiug
at the mecti g of (he clar.s at the
road department stables in Kakaako.
"Sport for sport's sake" was tho
watchword, and both "Jack" Atkin
son and "Sam" Johnson, as well as
nil the rest of I he league, declare
that the motto of the new organiza
tion is going to bo lived up to. There
are live teams in the A I L'incnn
League, named in honor of "Our
Jock," and some of tho articles of
the'eouslitution are sufficiently ori
ginal to merit particular attention
and call forth special praise. One
rule, for example, provides for fines
and other punislimenls for t ny dis
orderly or ungenllrnuinly act on the
Held during the progress of a game
and any man of any or the teams of
the league who should happen to so
far forget himself as to use- profane
or obscene language- would not only
be lined, but would run tho. risk of
exouls'oi. from tho league member
ship. In other words, the organizers
of the Atkinson Baseball League of
Kakaako have done more than found,
ed n.i association for the advance
ment ollhe great American game,
for they have practically got togeth
er a body of athletes and good fellows
who will not only play good baseball
and make thousands happy, the
thousand win. will witness the game,
but they "have created an organiza
tion for the moral uplift of a consider
able section of the community. Young
men who heretofore frequented
swipe joints ard other doubtful places
of recreation on Sundays will now be
seen witnessing the games of base
ball on a splendid baseball grounds in
Kakaako those who don't go lo
church near the kerosene ware
house. How Mtiny Will be American
Citizens?
Arrangement is being made by
Governor Frear and Land Commis
sioner Pratt for ascertaining the
number of the recent Spanish and
Portuguese immigrants on the dif
ferent islands who desire to become
naturalized American citizens. This
is to be done because it is known that
there are a number in different
places who w.s'n to take up Govern-inen-t
lat-d under homestead claim, or
otherwise, and before they con do
this it will be necessary for them to
"tak" out their first papers," or file
their declaration of intention of be
coming American citizens.
Arrangement will later be made
for having a cierk or tho Federal
Court make a tour of the Territory
and lake the declarations of sucli in
tending citizens, most of whom would
be unable to make the trip to Hono
lulu for that purposes. Star.
Hawaii Sisal in the Philippines.
MANILA, Sept. 7. -Over 50,000
maguey or Hawaiian sisal plants
were received from Honolulu last
week by the insular bureau of agri
culture. Yesterday 10,000 were
sent to Pangasinan and 10,000 to
Tayabas. Next week the rest or the
shipment will be distribu'ed among
the provinces or Albay, Sorsogon,
Bomblon, Surigao, Lcyte, Samar
and other provfnees.
H. JT. Edwards, insular fiber ex
pert, has received requests , from
every province in the archipelago
for these plant.?. Last year 250,000
plants were shipped into the islands
from Hawaii and distributed, and
200,000 will bo this year's quota.
Tho maguey fiber is recognized the
world over as a valuable production.
It will grow hi ovory part of tho
archipelago. From three to four
vears is required to mature, cutting
being made every year aftor ma
turity. At tho present timo the process of
curing maguey is done here by hand,
but. the introduction of machines has
begun and tips will cause a beneficial
uplift in maguey culture. Only threo
maguey machhies are in the islands
