There may be . trouble and expense, enough incurred by having to remove the present obstructions, without permitting any more to be added. It may be offered lit excuse by those parties j who have acquired the right to the foreshore that they have a perfect right to build wharo they please on their property. We have heard » such arguments before In the cities \ of other islands close by, but such ;, excuses were not held vaHd. No i-jjereons are justified in erecting - buildings when they would interl fere with the public health or con- | "renience, and the Municipal adthori;j ties should be empowered to prevent 'tneh annoyances.' It is unreasonl alto to expect tire eitixena, as a J , body, should be allowed to suffer \ because a few of their number act , so inconsistently or unfairly.
