HARBOR PROSPECTS
DANGER
Nawiliwil harbor improvements, on
the island ot Kauai, as provided for
in the rivers and hi rbors bill approved
March 2 of this year, will have to be
dropped, Governor McCarthy announc
ed Tuesday afternoon, unless the
Kauai Railway interests will consent to
make connection with that port which
will make the harbor accessible by
land to the entire southern portion of
the island. i
Governor McCarthy last night wrote
the Kauai Chamber of Commerce to
ascertain the present attitude of the
railway interests.
"It may be," said the Governor,
"that the situation has charged since
I was informed on the subject. I am
askng the Kauai Chamber of Com
merce what has been done, if anything,
toward fulfilling the provisions of con
gress in tho matter of railway connec
tons, so that the Territory may go to
work on ths harbor improvement pro
ject. If tho Kauai railway interests
will extend lines to Nawiliwili, as re
quired by the law before tho federal
appropriate-!! can become available the
Territory will go through with its
work; but if tho railway proviso can
not be met if the railway people arc
still opposed to the Nawiliwil plan
we will ba obliged to drop tho whole
business.
"If Kauai wants the Nawiliwili bet
terments ao proposed, it is up :o the
people of that island to induce the
railway men to agree to connect the
entire southern portion of Kauai with
the proposed wharf. The Territory will
do all in its power to bring cue scheme
to realization.
Territory's Hands Tied
"When I was acting chairman of the
board of harbor commissioners the Na
wiliwili plans were undir discussion,
and I took the matter up with Alexan
der & Baldwin, agents for the Kauai
Railway Co., but they were not favor
able to the idea of linking up with
NawiliwiU. Eleele (Port Allen is the
present outlook for the Kauai Ualway
Co., whose agents figured it would cost
much more to transport Biigar further
to Nawiliwili. As it is now, the sugar
is taken to Port Allen, placed in the
warehouses there, and shot down from
the warehouses into boats which con
vey it to the ocean steamers. With the
new wharf at Nawiliwili, steamships
would be enabled to dock alongside,
and the small-boat handling would be
done away with. I believe that if tho
wharf were built, the railway would
see the advantages and increased busi

Michelin users familiar with the unsurpassed quality of
Michelin Tires, often ask. "How is it possible to sell Michelin
Tires. at prices no higher than ordinary makes.'
The answer is to

ness opportunities andwould come to
the new wharf, but we cannot go ahead
with the construction until we can get
the assurances of the railway inter
ests." The section of the law covering Na
wiliwili's improvements reads as fol
lows :
"Honolulu, Kahulul, Hilo and Nawi
liwili harbors, Hawaii: Continuing im
provement and for maintenance, 135,
000; completing improvement of Kahu
lul harbor, ?94,300; for improvement of
Nawliwill harbor in accordance with
the report submitted in house docu
ment 609, Sixty-second Congress, sec
ond session, $250,000: Provided, that
work on the project herein adopted
shall not be commenced until the sec
retary of war is satisfied that railroad
connections will be made wthin a rea
sonable time which will make the har
bor of Nawiliwili accessible by land
to the entire southern portion of tho
island:
"Provided further, That no contract
for work heroin appropriated for shall
bo entered into until the county of Ka
uai, or other agency, shall have de
posited to the credit of the secretary of
war, in some bank in the Territory of
Hawaii to be designated by him, the
sum of $200,000, which sum shall be
expended by the secretary of war in
the further prosecution of said work,
in the same manner and in equal
amounts as the sum herein appropriat
ed: "And provided further, that the Ter
ritory of Hawaii is authorized to con
demn each strip of land, not less than
COO feet wide, fronting on the propos
ed wharf sitesvand extending from
Huleia river northerly to the public
road and tho Wai Ko Hui stream, and
all rights of way and other lands re
quired for the breakwater and con
structionwork thereon as shall be ap
proved by tho secretary of war; and
no contract for work herein appro
priated for shall bo entered into until
the Territory of Hawai shall have
commenced condemnation proceedings
to acquire such lands and rights of
way; and no expense shall be incurred
by the United States for acquiring or
using such lands and rights of way:
"And provided further, that the sec
retary of war is authorize to con
demn a quarry site or sites, with
rights of way thereto, the awards
therefor to be paid out of the funds
appropriated for this project; and the
quarries when so acquired may be
made available to any contractors for
work on this project on termB to be
fixed by the secretary of war; in all
$479,3000."
"The big question," said the Gover
nor, "is whether the railway people
will make Nawiliwili improvements
possible. There is another question, of
minor import, which relates to the
condemnation proceedings. The Ter-

any expense that cjr.i:-t ss this test Is

will not find mabuga-.iy furniture or expen

will you find Michelin branches located in
big expensive buildings where smaller,
simpler quarters answer just as well.

Why Teachers
Are Lacking
"A coast teacher, writing on the sub
ject to Hollinger, said that she was to
have sailed on August 26, but did not
receive her notification until Septem
ber 3, a week later. She said she be-,
licved thla to have been the case with
many of the other teachers who had
expected to come here this year.
Advertiser.
This we have (food reason to be
lieve is tho sort of thing winch ac
counts for the present deplorable
condition of our schools. We have
personal knowledge of fonr prin
cipals on this Island who made
timely recommendations of good
teachers who wanted to come to
the Islands, ami for whom they
could vouch with the utmost oou
lidence, but they were informed,
either explicitly or tacitly, that
they were not needed, anil that the
department was making entirely
satisfactory provision for all the
schools. And here we are with
ur school system in a terrible
mess. Some who have had a liflle
personal insight behind the scenes
declare that the department is
hopelosly at sea, and in a choas of
confusion, and it looks as though
they were right.

Meeting of Kapaa Homesteaders
A meeting of the Kapaa Homestead
ers for Sunday morning last at the
Kapaa Court House, failed to come off
because of some uncertainty in the
notification which resulted in them
straggling in at different hours all
day.
The purpose of the meeting was to
consider and discuss tho new con
tracts with the Makee Sugar company,
the terms of which were entirely un
known to them.
They will try it again this coming
Sunday morning.

i trip 'not less than 600 feet , wide.'
Now there is a difference of opinion
between the United States engineer
i nd the attorney general, the former
thinking that the Territory has not
taken enough land, while tho latter
thinks otherwise. This morning it
was agreed that I should write the
recretary of war, through the local
office, asking for an interpretation of
the provision in this regard. There
can be no difficulty on this point, how
