Because the Herald lias no circu lation in the Haniakua district, the Triuunk has been requested to publish the letters below for the benefit of its numerous readers in that section. The article in full from last week's Herald follows: Some weeks ago a letter signed "Hamaktta," relative to Hamakua road board affairs appeared iti these columns. The last mail brought the following replies which are cheerfully published: Paauilo, Hamakua, Jan. 31. Mr. Editor: In your issue of the 9th inst. I notice an article signed by "Hamakua" iti which he attacks me as chairman of this road board. Will you kindly find space for the following in reply. The undersigned was elected a member of the road board and not appointed. He is entitled to all the rights of an American subject, hav ing become a naturalized Hawaiian in the year 1880. The chairman in some districts may be the "whole cheese," but in Hnmakua he is only one-third of the cheese, the other members hav ing an equal voice in all road board matters. The books of the board arc open for public inspection at all times, the usual quarterly statements are made to the superintendent of pub lic works and thus far have met with his approval. The writer will not attempt to answer the balance of the charges made by "Hamakua," but will leave to the secretary of the board the task of stating the facts. Yours truly, A. I.IDC.ATIJ. Honokaa, Hamakua, Jan. 30. Mr. Kditor: In your issue of the 9th inst. you published a letter from "Hamakua" in which various charges are made against the road board and more especially against the chairman, Mr. A. I,idgate. In the paragraph in which he charges the chairman with receiv ing a feevof ten dollars per trip when going to either end of the district on road board business, aud suggests that the superintendent of public works look into the books of the Hamakua road board aud as certain if these items are being charged, he displays gross ignor ance of all the rules governing road boards in these islands, which is not at all compatible with the role "Hamakua" masquerades in. Having kept the books of the Hamakua road board since July, 1899, I am in a position to affirm that neither the chairman nor past or present members of the road board have been paid by the trip, by the day, or for transportation while inspecting roads or while engaged on any road board busi ness whatsoever. Quarterly re turns, accompanied by detailed vouchers, of all monies expended on the construction of new roads or the maintenance of and repairs to existing roads, have to be sent the superintendent of public works, so that he is fully informed of how all road business in the different dis tricts is carried on. During the year ending Dec. 31, 1900, $33,617.00 was expended in this district ($27,726.00 from ap propriations aud $5,891.00 from road tax fund) in constructing the following roads : Kaauhuhu home stead road, Ahualoa homestead road, Honokaa lauding road, new Wnimea road, and regrading parts of the main road (at Kukuihaele two miles, at Kawela one mile, and at Kukaiau one and a half miles) Lthe balance being expended on the upkeep of about fifty-three miles of road. During the year ending Dec. 31, I90 $15,000.00 was expended; from appropriation $5,000.00 on the new Waipio beach trail, and from road tax $5,000.00 in con structing one aud a quarter miles of new main road at Houokntt and $5,000.00 on the maintenance of fifty-five miles of roads in the district. It has been aud still is the policy of the road board to expend just as much money as will keep in fair repair the main and other roads that were never located but have been worn flmvn !n Mirdr tirpspnt couuttion irom tue old riding trails of earlier years. All the new roads that arc being constructed in the district are part of a system of roads that will, when completed, show to all fairminded men that the roads have had an eye to the future as well as the present needs of the district nnd have constructed the roads on the best locations and on the best grades possible. The so-called homestead roads that "Hamakua" mentions are the division reads which run up and down the country and have any grade between six per cent, and twenty per cent., and it is impossi ble to get any reasonable grades on them. As the homesteads have not been laid out by public works department the road board cannot be charged with the deficiencies and impossibilities of their roads. There has been a sum of $30, 000.00 appropriated by the Legis lature for homestead roads, but so far no money has been placed al the disposal of the road board for this work. Regarding the Waipio beach trail that has been constructed into Wai pio valley: Kour years ago the. road board asked for an appropria tion of $25,000.00 to construct a road into Waipio valley, but only the sum of $5,000.00 was appro priated for this work, a sum totally inadequate for a work of such mag nitude. It was then decided to build a trail, to be constructed on the best location for a road, that, when completed, would best ac commodate the needs of the Wai pio valley. Several different routes were then surveyed by the former road engineer and after careful con sideration the present beach route was chooscn as being the best route for the road. A few of its advant ages over any other possible routes are as follows : Cost of construction much less; has much better grades; gives Wai pio a direct .road to their ouly land ing; gives Kukuihaele village a graded landing road; gives the shortest and most direct road for produce going out of the valley to points east of Kukuihaele village; avoids ascending unnecessary as cents and consequent descents; will be the shortest and most direct road from Waipio to the projected rail road depot, aud will give Kukui haele village the shortest and most direct road to the projected rail road depot. At present the trail is twelve feet wide and has been continually used ever since its completi letion in August, ! 1901. Arrangements are being made to have it completed to the finished grade and width. There is a saying that "children aud fools should not see things half done," in which "Hamakua" may possibly find a little consolation. All meetings of the road board, to which the public have always been welcomed, have been adver tised by written notices, and ATJ, road board business is transacted at these meetings. It would be better if "Hamakua" and other well wishers of the district of his stamp would attend these meetings and keep themselves posted on road matters aud so, if no other good would accrue from their attendance, save themselves their valuable time wasted in writing newspapers with false reports and accusations. A. J. Williamson. t Honokaa, Hamakua, Jan. 29. Mr. ICditor : In your entertain ing columns of the 9th inst.
