Hustace Discovered
Road Work Overdraft
The announcement that the rami
department liutl memm Its apiituprl
iillun by tr.suu, which wns sprung an
a bombshell nt Ihu ineetliiK of tho
lloanl of SuperWsotB Inst Wednesday
evening, nn by far tho most Inter
esting feature of the occiiblon. Chnli-
man lluatncu referred to tho nmttcr
In crjptlc terms sceral times during
tho iouiso of the meeting, eidcntly
trjlng to iirotl Dnlght to make a
statement, but none such was forth
coming, ami finally, when the cm I
oslty of tho rest of the mcmbeis had
been u or lied up to tho highest pitch,
llustaco nitulo tho announcement
himself.
Hustace Springs Surprise
is u inuiier oi tact, lie said.
"the roid ilepnrtmcnt hns ocrdrawn
S58U0."
lie went on to say that In order to
leac tho liiconilng lloanl something'
like 130,000 In the treasury it would
bo necessary to economize In the road
department, and un appropriation of
Sli.OOO would have to be enough for
It next month.
"How Is It they ran oer their es
timates?" asKcd Ilaney.
"Tho reason was that thero was so
much woik going on," answered
Dwlght. "Ecrliody wanted roadt".
They said that If this llonrd didn't
do It, the Incoming Hoard would
not."
"They seem to know nil about It,"
said Harvey.
"I explained to them that the in
coming Hoard knew Its business," an
swered Dwlght.
"Well, Is there nothing to Bhow
on what roads this money lias been
spent?" asked I limey.
Poor Management
"The trouble Is, I am sorry to say,"
said HuHluce, "that thcio has been
poor maungenient. During fifteen
d.i)s inutl a day was spent for labor
alone, and how an) olio can llgure out
how SIC, 000 a month can last that
way 1 don't see."
Dwlght and Itoad Supoi visor Cum
tilings told of tho nrloun road work
which had been done, and Harey
complained that there was nothing
to show the details of expenditure on
various loads.
Dwlght stated that there had been
one bildgo to repair which hud not
been expected. That had cost almost
$700.
Cox called attention to the" rulo
that the departments could not ovei
draw. Ilustaro said that he had discov
ered the overdraft. 12ciythlng was
In order, but had ho not discovered
tho tnerdiuft when he did thu ovei
draft would probably huve amounted
to 18000.
Harvey snld ho could not see on
the roads that nn tiling had been
gained.
"I told Mr. Dwlght and Cummtngs
that I was ery sorry this happened,"
said Hustace, "especially Just as wo
were going out of office. I think
that 11 11.000 will hao to be enough
for December."
Harvey was in favor of making it
MS, 000 In order that the promises
made by the Hoard lu regard to road
work might bo kept.
The matter was discussed again
when the estimates were taken up,
and it whs bottled to glvo tho roads
S12.000.
Thero would bo 113,193. 31 left at
the end of December, unless this
would bo a ery wet month, and In
all that would glvo the new Hoard
about $32,000 in addition to tho reg-J
ular amounts derived from tho Terri
tory. Townsend's Salary Squabble
The mutter of tho payment of tho
salary of Interpreter Townsend, who
had been appointed by tho County
Attorney on the understanding that
the Sheriff would pay half of his sal
ary of SCO a month, was brought up,
as tho Sheriff had declined to dig up,
stating that ho had made no. such
promise. Letters wero read from
various officers connected with tho
court work, including Judge Andrade,
explaining that tho regular Japanese
special officer was useless as an In
tel pretor. ,
"Is there no letter showing tho
appointment of Towusond?" OBked
Hustace. 'I think," he added, "that
tho County Attorney or his deputy
might hne come here."
Hiuvoy bald the matter should bo
postponed until tho noxt meeting, as
tho Hoard could provide no salary
when no regular appointment hud
bten made.

Hustace said he thought this was
best. If the Count) Attorney could
not be present, llustiue was not go
lug to waste nn) time about It.

Soils, Waters and
Forests Are Studied
Tho Territorial Conservation Com
mission, consisting of Messrs. K. S.
llostnor. W. O. Smith, W. F. Dilling
ham, A. Hartley und .1. (1. Smith, sub
mltted their report to Uou'rnor Frear
sliorth before ho left for thu Coast.
This commission wns npioliited as a
result of tho meeting of tho Uoernors
In Washington In Mny last.
Tho report of tho Commission goes
Into tho work assigned to it lu full,
the following excerpts, how over, eo.
erlng the real work that was done
After speaking of tho fact that the
natural resources of Hawaii are water,
boll, und forests, tho Commission
speaks of each one as follows:
Waters For tho successful develop
ment of all these Industries water is
needed In larger or smalled quantities.
In many cases this necessitates a sup
ply artificially procured. There have
already been built, wholly by prhato
enterprise and nt private expetiko
amounting to oer $15,000,000, elahoi
uto irrigation s steins to supply water
for tho Itrlgatlon of the sugar planta
tions Hut as jet only a part of tho
water that could bo turned to account
Is utilized. In the harnessing of tho
streams to produco power much also
romiiliis to bo done.
Naturally the first stop In a moro
complete and rational ultlllzatlon of
this great source and producer of
wealth Is an accurate and oxhattstlvo
examination of tho water resources of
tho Territory. In the Judgment of this
Commission the need for such a sur
vey by competent water experts Is tho
most pressing necessity lu tho wit)
of conservation work, for on tho pos
sibility or bringing more water onto,
tho laud depends tho whole future de
velopment of tho Torrltory
Thero aro no navigable streams In
tho Territory of Hawaii. The value of
water centers In Its use for Irrigation
and power development.
Forests TJie primary value of tho
forests of Hawaii Is that they servo
as u protectlvo cover on tho steep,
short watersheds of tho streams need
ed for irrigation. This uso was vail)
recognized und has led to the setting
apart of forest reserves at first by
prlvnto owners und later, during the
last flvo years, nuclei tho dlroctlon of
the Turltorlal government. At the
present tlmo tho total area of existing
torest reserves Is 444,110 ucros, or
about nuc-teiith of the total arila of
tho Territory. Later It Is expected
considerably to Increase the area so
sot upart.

Lands Outside of the lands now

be kept permanently under forest
thero nie considerable ureas that with
the application of water could unqiic-M
tlonabl) bo luado of high productive
value. This class of laud Is now used
principally for cattle grazing. In the
aggregate it Includes many thousand
acres. It would appear that much of
It Is susceptible of reclamation for
some more Intensive form of ngricul-
turo. Here again the present need
is for a thorough and careful 'stud) li
experts. It bhould first bo ascertained
how much of this class of land can be
brought under Irrigation and second
for what purposes It Is best adapted
If an adequate water supply were once
assured. This Indicates that along
with a h)ilrographlc survey thero
should also be u soil survey und n s)R
tetnatlc classification of the land ac
cording to the uses to which it Is best
udapted. Such Investigations gave the
way for the Incoming of the man who
can successfully estubllsh a home and
build up 11 self sustaining industry.
In addition to tho lands that can bo
reclaimed through Irrigation theie .110
In Hawaii largo tracts of wusto Und
such for example as areas covered b)
comparatively recent luval flows. Much
of this class of land must slwajs re
main as vvasto land but jiortlons of It
are piobably susceptlblo of being
turned to useful account. A s)stem
atlc classification or all lands would
bo a long step In this direction.
Recommendations.
As a result of tho study Uiat hns so
far been mado the Territorial Con
scrvatlon Commission or Hawaii Is
unanimously of tho opinion that for
the best Interests of the Territory
theie Is urgent need of action looking
to the conservation uud more system
atic use or tho uatiirul resources of the
Territory.
To this end the Commission makes
the following recommendations:
111 nt. That active steps bo taken to
secure rroiu the Territorial legislature
at Its coming session un appropriation
of not less than $5000 per year for a
topographic and hydrcgrnphlc survey
of the Territory of Hawaii, to bo undo
by the U. 8. Oeoloalcal 8urvey.
Follow lug the usage custoniaiy In
cuch cooperative agi cements, the a)i
I rnprlatlon should bo mado contingent
nn tho expenditure of an cnttnl sum
liy Jho Federal Government. Such n
sane) would servo as a baslK for a lat
er and mnro extended study of the
problems of reclaiming the many thou

land that require Irrigation for suc
cessful development.
