CONDEMNATION OF I WHARF S T E The Waimea wharf site matter came up in the Circuit Court, at chambers, last Thursday in the form of a motion for order of pub lication and summons, the case being entitled Territory vs. E. A. Knudsen, et al. . The court ordered that the sum mons be returnable before the July, t916, term, and that the notice respecting same be published in The Garden Island for three months. This suit, instituted by the Ter ritory, is to gain possession of the land needed for wharf purposes at Waimea. An effort was made to deal with the owners of the land direct, but the suit seems to indi cate that those negotiations failed of results.

"May I suggest the name of Cy til O. Smith to you, as I believe he will represent the Kauai Cham ber of Commerce very ably. "Thanking you for the confi dence placed in me. I remain. "Very truly yours, "Paxil R. Isenberg".
