Something like two
weeks ugo, tliir office
was inforinod that all the
carpenters engaged
on the public school buildings un
der construction, were orientals-
not citizens. A n investigation
proved the assertion to be a mis
take, and in so far as- this paper is
concerned, the matter was dropped.
However, a well founded report
is now in circulation to the effect
that the man responsible for the
charge agauist the county, was
and is. no other than a Link Mc-
rnmllps stool-nieeon. It will be
remembered by nearly all of us
and by Link more particularly
that in the last campaign, his per
sonal interests were rather ueglec
ed here, hence the sending of a

FOR
CHAMPIONSHIP
Tin: two load
in); l up (hnll
teams of the
1st. and 2nd. series which pulled
off their first tie game on the Mc
Bryde diamond last Sunday were
greeted by a bumper crowd that
had gathered with the expectation
of seeing these two bunches of big
slabbers contest for the 1912
championship. Nor was the crowd
disappointed for the game through
out, was all that could be desired
to make it an interesting game
save, however, the fact that the
.visitors were dangerously close to
the vicinity of the whitewash pail
when the McBrydes, in the 9th.,
annexed two runs. A s it now
stands, the Kilaueas have the ad
vantace, since their opponents
must necessarily win both of the
remaining, games to entitle them
to the coveted prize. This, they
surely will strain every effort to
accomplish and though the Ki
laueas are known to be among the
leading big stickers, this fact will
not have any effect on the am
bition of the McBryde's t o do
their best, and it will not pay the
Kilaueaites to do other than their
best regardless of the fact that
they have a leg on the champion
ship. May the best team win.
What's the matter with a police
man at Ilnnmuaulu? Do we need
him? Guess we do.
will this danger be avoided.
A Last year there was
COUNTY wiuc little agitation
CARPENTER concerning a n-g
ularlv employed
carpenter whose duties would be
to look after the school repairs ot
the cotintv. Durinc the closing
vacation we have been so occupied
with our buildings that we have
naturally, and wholy uninten
timmllv neclected "repairs to build
incs." There are schools with
broken glass, floors requiring
raintmo. etc.. all of which IS
I ci ' '
known to the proper officers, yet
nothinc has been done. Had the
county carried out the proposition
sutrircsted bv this paper last vear.
everything would have been in
tin-top shape for the fall term of
1912. There is sufficient repair
work to keep a carpenter constant
ly busy and surely it we can pay
SfiOO.OO ner month for our roads,
it doesn't seem unreasonable to
propose that a county carpenter be
furnished tor school purposes

BUILT ings Hearing com
nletion. and thoii
sands of desks arriving, the local
department of education presents
a scene of activity which betokens
the progressive spirit of the Kauai-
ans. New teachers are appearing
on the horizon, and the former
ones are beginning to reassemble
their belongings preparatory t o
their coming year's work. A
transfer here, a change there, etc.,
have caused some little delay in
the final assignment of teachers,
but this has about all been arranged
to the satisfaction of all and when
time comes to jingle, jingle the
assemble bell for t h e first o f
the autumn day school, everything
will be ready to start with a bang!
The new course of study which has
met with the approval of the Com
mission, settles the question defi
nitely and the required new text
books will be gradually brought
into use.
Xor the sligliti'.-t jirt'ti'iiM'
lias as yet been liuuk' to
enforce the stock law. If,
as Attorney Kaneakua
!
savs, the Hoard ot supervisors is
the only power behind the throne,
then why does it not amno
rize the enforcement of this law at
once? Does the Board imagine the
people can be hoodwinked into
inactivity? Take the Kawaihau
district, for instance. Why, .every
tree which has been planted, has
been eaten down. During the after
noon and evening the road is lined
with horses and cattle. This is,
however, no exception, for the
same can be said of the public
roads around Lihue and between
Lihue and Kealia.
It is very evident to the people
all over the island, that those re
sponsible for the present condi
tions, do not fully realize it or
else don't give a hang either of
which amounts to the same thing
in so far as the voters and tax
payers are concerned. I f the
members of the Board of Supervi
sors are wholy responsible for the
enforcement of the stock laws and
persist in taking no heed of the
complaints of the people, it will
surely be among the extraordinary
happenings if these same gentry
should solicit aid in their re-election
this fall, from these self-same
people.
This paper has no bone to pick
with the present members of the
Board of Supervisors. they are all
good, capable, well-meaning men.
This being the case we naturally

There are nearly a thousand peo
ple in that vicinity who are com
pelled to come to Lihue for their
mail. There has been an attempt
to have a postoffice there, but it is
said that the plantation objected
to such an arrangement. Why the
plantation should object should
not greatly worry the people.

pany. Since about 2 per cent of
Hh plantation emolovf's consume
ice, what's the matter with a flour
mill, a meat canning factory, etc.,
which, if prices were cut iu
half, would give the other 98 per
cent a chance at some ice. too?
