r .J r r SI" What is Best for Maui If you wish Prosperity is Best for the Nevs Advertise in the News VOLUME XXII. WAILUKU, MAUI, T. II., FRIDAY, DECEMBER i, 1915. NUMBER 43. Hart's Shortage May Not Be Fully Known Priv.itc Funds Entrusted To Him Cannot Be Accounted For Books In Bad Tangle System Bad. It Is nlmost certain that the entire amount of tho shortage of Edmund II. Hart, clerk of tho Second Circuit Court, will never foe accurately known. Up to the present time something like $5500 of tho court's funds have focen checked up as missing. The clerk's cash hook shows a balance of some $G100, but tho bank balanco is only about ?500. But the money that can- not be checked with much degree of accuracy, is that which has from time to time been turned over to tho clerk as administrator of estates, trustee- ships, and tho like. These are not court monies, and the only way short- ages in this account can he ascer- tained is through claims filed by per- sons to whom it may be due. Following his arrest on charge of embezzlement, last Friday morning, Hart was arraigned before Judge Edlngs and admitted to bail in sum of ?2000. Tills was later furnished with J. H. Kunewa and D. C. Lindsay as sureties. Hart is under bond of $2500, furnished about a year ago at the time that Judge Edlngs took charge of the court. W. T. Robinson and A. Garcia are sureties on this bond. While the amount of this bond does not cover the amount of Hart's alleged short- age, it is claimed that Ills former bondsmen will be responsible for any defalcations shown to have taken place before tho new bond was ap- proved. Complicated Tangle. Auditor Charles Wilcox has been engaged ever since last week In going through the books of tho clerk, and ho states that they are in a discourag-Ingl- y tangled conditions. The county supervisors, at their session this wee'K, set aside $1000 towards the cost of the audit now being made, and A. G. Dick- ens, a local accounatnt, is now work- ing on the books. W. S. Chilling-worth- , court stenographer, who is now acting clerk, and who will probably "receive the permanent appointment to Hart's position, has been experienc- ing a good deal of trouble, from the fact that Hart was far behind in writ- ing up his docket, much of tho records of the court being simply memoranda. Trial in March. Hart will not bo placed on trial until the March term of Circuit court, and It is possible that another Judgo than Judge Edlngs will be called to sit on it, Inasmuch as the Maui jurist may ho held to be disqualified on account of his connection with the matter. Immediately following Hart's ar- raignment, Attorney Eugene Murphy filed a suit against the clerk's bonds- men for the recovery of monies al- leged to have been entrusted to the clerk. Tho suit was brought against Hart, W. T. Itobinson, and J. Garcia. It has slnco foeen learned that J. Gar- cia was not one of tho bondsmen. It Is highly probable that this is but the first of many such suits to foe forought. Is Wilcox Responsible? It is moro than likely that, In case tho bond of Hart proves insuillcient to meet his shortage, that an effect will bo made to recover from tho bond or County Auditor Charles Wilcox, on tho assumption that tho defalcations would not have occurred had ho not been negligent in tho matter of audit- ing the clerk's books. Mr. Wilcox ad- mits that no audit was made during tho past three or four years, but he claims that ho has never been able to get sufficient assistance in Ills olllce to enable him to spend tho time on outside ofTlces required. Also, he points out, that tho law on the sub- ject is not specific, and Is even open to .question as to whether such work is ''required of him. He points out his efforts, during the past two sessions ' of tho legislature, to have a bill passed which would specifically require the county auditors to make at least year- ly examinations of the accounts of all county officials, and to require month- ly reports to him from all of them. This bill failed of passage both times. During the last legislature the bill was pocket-vetoe- d by the Governor, no cause ever having being given. Supervisors Have Not Helped. Mr. Wilcox also points out that the supervisors havo not in the past shown much Inclination to help out in this direction. As an instance he recalls tho fact that long before the recont investigation of tho Makawao and the Wailuku waterworks, he ca'l-e- d tho attention of the Board to the fact that there were evident irregulari- ties in theso departments, and asked for help in digging out tho facts, hut no attention was paid to his request. Played ends Against Middle. Auditor Wilcox further declared that that under the system in vogue prior to Judgo Eding's tlmo at least, an investigation of the court clerk's books would havo profoafoly not shown a shortago inasmuch as tho clerk might bo short on court funds, and bo able to cover tho shortago for the benefit of an examiner, from estate and othor funds In his hands, for which ho was not required to mako an accounting. It is roported that a re- cont order of Judgo Edlngs, requiring Hart to deposit in tho hank nil funds entrusted to him, in tho namo of tho Smooth Chicken Thief Gets Two Year Sentence Chu Lung, a well known Wailuku Chinaman, was sentenced in district court this week, by Judgo McKay, to two years in Jail for chicken stealing. There were two counts against him and he got a year in each case. In connection with Chu's depredations, Loons Fook was found guilty of re- ceiving stolen goods, and was sen- tenced to pay a flno of $40 and to serve 3 houis in jail. According to the police dm Lung is an old offender at the chicken steal- ing game. Ho has long been suspect- ed, but it was not until this week that he finally tripped up. Word reached Deputy Sheriff Ferreira early Monday morning that a fine bunch of chick-rn- s bad been stolen during tho night, and a quick descent upon Chu Lung brought the biddies to light, still con- fined in tho bags in which they had been carried from their roosts. It Is claimed that Chu Lung has been in tho habit of selling dressed fowls for a long time. At one restau- rant which patronized him, ho always accommodatingly insisted in dressing the birds himse'f after selling them, and of saving the feathers and heads. He bought chickens occasionally, ami generally immediately after making stirh a purchase, tho remainder of the se'lor's Hock would disappear. -- - Official Opening To Take Place Later Tho remodeled Maui Hotel will ho unofficially opened next Monday even- ing when tho members of Lodge Maul, No. 984, A. F. & A. M., will entertain with a banquet tho visiting Masons from Honolulu, who will arrive tomor- row to exemplify certain new work of tho order. Tho official opening will not take place for some time, how- ever, as Manager Field plans to coin-plet- o his new Iao Valley annex first, and to hold an elaborate opening at that time. The new hotel will bo second to none outside of Honolulu, In tho ter- ritory, in appearance or conveniences and comforts. Telephones are being installed in all the rooms, tho dining room has been enlarged, and tho en- tire place refinlshed nnd furnished. CHILDREN TO TAKE CHARGE OF CHRISTMAS SERVICE AT UNION CHURCH. The Sunday School will conduct the service at the Wailuku Union Church on Sunday evening, which will bo held at the usual hour: 7:30 o'clock. The children have prepared a little Tableaux entitled "Tho Manger Scene" which will be given. Tho mem- ber of tho school by giving "Pound 'aekages" which will contain gifts for poor children, are trying to demon- strate the Christmas spirit of giving. Parents are asked to havo their children at the Church promptly at 7:15. All parents and friends are cord- ially invited to be present. Tho annual children's Christmas Tree service of tho Union Church will e held in tho burch Thursday after noon, December 23rd at 4 o'cloc. THINK THEY WERE STUNG, BUT PAID BILL. Although It is claimed that the re- gular prico of tho same truck in San Francisco is $500 less than the price, ilus the freight, for which tho county ntered into a contract with tho Volcano Stables Company to pay, the supervisors last week voted to pay the ' 111. They were advised by the county ittorney that their contract was bind- ing, even though they had boon 'stung" In the transaction. It was claimed that tho agent for tho truck has declared that tho $5000 asked was exactly tho Coast price, plus tho freight to the Islands. The supervisors later learned that tho San Francisco nrice is $1440, and that the freight is 'nit $75 or $80. , HOLIDAY SCHEDULE FOR INTER. ISLAND. Announcement is made that the Inter-Islan- d steamer Claudino will ar-riv- o on Friday morning of next weok, instead of on Saturday, which is Christmas, and will sail for Honolulu at 4 o'clock the same afternoon, in Honolulu about midnight Friday night instead of Saturday night. The same schedule will bo re- peated on the following weok, on ac- count of Now Years. Tho Mikahala will also return to Hono'ulu a day earlier on both weeks. The Mauna Loa will arrive from Ho- nolulu on Thursday night, Decombor 30, instead of Friday, .on account of New Years. tt Joe Martin, on chaige of assault and battery, was this week sontonced to one year in jail by Judgo McKay, of the Wailuku district court. Tho as- sault In question was of a most dis- gusting character, and was fommilcd against a small boy at Kahulul. parties to whom they belonged, was responsible for bringing to a hoad to cVrk's manipulations. Not being ablo to switch this rnonoy to tho court fund thero was nothing for him to do but to admit his dofalcations. Steamer Chartered For New Year Races Big Crowd Will Come From Honolulu For Great Wild West Show. Oahu Horses Being Trained For Blood. By this morning's mall Angus Mc-Phe- o received word from Ebon Low to effect that booking has been made for 75 men of the 4th Cavalry, and 25 handsmen of the same regiment. "With 100 soldiers coming, including the crack 1th Cavalry band, there isn't a doubt left as to the success of tho Honolulu excursion for the races," is McPheo declaration. Angus McPheo and F. H. Locey, who havo charge of the big New Year's Day wild west show and racing program to be held at Kahulul, returned home on Wednesday from Honolulu, enthusi- astic over tho outlook for Honolulu support for the big phow. They were successful in making arrangements for tho chartering of the Inter-Islan- d btoamer Kllauea for a special excur- sion, and are certain that tho vessel will nring up at least 200 sportsmen and others for the occasion.

McPhce and Locey report that all of theso horses have been in steady training for some time, and arc In fine shape, and their owners confident of their ability to carry off the honors. Possibly the most interert of tho Honolulu sports- men centers in tho free-for-al- l, in which Welcome Boy, and McPhee's horse Denervo will be tho star actors; and in tho 2:15 event in which Harold D. will again meet his old rival Maul Boy. It is also said that there will ho a now horso from Honolulu appear in this race. Wild West Events.

VOLUME XXII. WAILUKU, MAUI, T. II., FRIDAY, DECEMBER i, 1915. NUMBER 43.

Hart's Shortage May

Not Be Fully Known

Priv.itc Funds Entrusted To Him

Cannot Be Accounted For Books

In Bad Tangle System Bad.

It Is nlmost certain that the entireamount of tho shortage of EdmundII. Hart, clerk of tho Second CircuitCourt, will never foe accurately known.Up to the present time something like$5500 of tho court's funds have focenchecked up as missing. The clerk'scash hook shows a balance of some$G100, but tho bank balanco is onlyabout ?500. But the money that can-

not be checked with much degree ofaccuracy, is that which has from timeto time been turned over to tho clerkas administrator of estates, trustee-ships, and tho like. These are notcourt monies, and the only way short-ages in this account can he ascer-tained is through claims filed by per-sons to whom it may be due.

Following his arrest on charge ofembezzlement, last Friday morning,Hart was arraigned before JudgeEdlngs and admitted to bail in sum of?2000. Tills was later furnished withJ. H. Kunewa and D. C. Lindsay assureties. Hart is under bond of $2500,furnished about a year ago at the timethat Judge Edlngs took charge of thecourt. W. T. Robinson and A. Garciaare sureties on this bond. While theamount of this bond does not coverthe amount of Hart's alleged short-age, it is claimed that Ills formerbondsmen will be responsible for anydefalcations shown to have takenplace before tho new bond was ap-proved.Complicated Tangle.

Auditor Charles Wilcox has beenengaged ever since last week In goingthrough the books of tho clerk, andho states that they are in a discourag-Ingl- y

tangled conditions. The countysupervisors, at their session this wee'K,set aside $1000 towards the cost of theaudit now being made, and A. G. Dick-ens, a local accounatnt, is now work-ing on the books. W. S. Chilling-worth- ,

court stenographer, who is nowacting clerk, and who will probably"receive the permanent appointment toHart's position, has been experienc-ing a good deal of trouble, from thefact that Hart was far behind in writ-ing up his docket, much of tho recordsof the court being simply memoranda.Trial in March.

Hart will not bo placed on trial untilthe March term of Circuit court, andIt is possible that another Judgo thanJudge Edlngs will be called to sit onit, Inasmuch as the Maui jurist mayho held to be disqualified on accountof his connection with the matter.

Immediately following Hart's ar-raignment, Attorney Eugene Murphyfiled a suit against the clerk's bonds-men for the recovery of monies al-leged to have been entrusted to theclerk. Tho suit was brought againstHart, W. T. Itobinson, and J. Garcia.It has slnco foeen learned that J. Gar-cia was not one of tho bondsmen. ItIs highly probable that this is but thefirst of many such suits to foe forought.Is Wilcox Responsible?

It is moro than likely that, In casetho bond of Hart proves insuillcientto meet his shortage, that an effectwill bo made to recover from tho bondor County Auditor Charles Wilcox, ontho assumption that tho defalcationswould not have occurred had ho notbeen negligent in tho matter of audit-ing the clerk's books. Mr. Wilcox ad-

mits that no audit was made duringtho past three or four years, but heclaims that ho has never been ableto get sufficient assistance in Ills olllceto enable him to spend tho time onoutside ofTlces required. Also, hepoints out, that tho law on the sub-ject is not specific, and Is even open to

.question as to whether such work is''required of him. He points out hisefforts, during the past two sessions

' of tho legislature, to have a bill passedwhich would specifically require thecounty auditors to make at least year-ly examinations of the accounts of allcounty officials, and to require month-ly reports to him from all of them.This bill failed of passage both times.During the last legislature the bill waspocket-vetoe- d by the Governor, nocause ever having being given.Supervisors Have Not Helped.

Mr. Wilcox also points out that thesupervisors havo not in the pastshown much Inclination to help outin this direction. As an instance herecalls tho fact that long before therecont investigation of tho Makawaoand the Wailuku waterworks, he ca'l-e- d

tho attention of the Board to thefact that there were evident irregulari-ties in theso departments, and askedfor help in digging out tho facts, hutno attention was paid to his request.Played ends Against Middle.

Auditor Wilcox further declaredthat that under the system in vogueprior to Judgo Eding's tlmo at least,an investigation of the court clerk'sbooks would havo profoafoly not showna shortago inasmuch as tho clerkmight bo short on court funds, andbo able to cover tho shortago for thebenefit of an examiner, from estateand othor funds In his hands, forwhich ho was not required to mako anaccounting. It is roported that a re-cont order of Judgo Edlngs, requiringHart to deposit in tho hank nil fundsentrusted to him, in tho namo of tho

Smooth Chicken ThiefGets Two Year Sentence

Chu Lung, a well known WailukuChinaman, was sentenced in districtcourt this week, by Judgo McKay, totwo years in Jail for chicken stealing.There were two counts against himand he got a year in each case. Inconnection with Chu's depredations,Loons Fook was found guilty of re-ceiving stolen goods, and was sen-tenced to pay a flno of $40 and toserve 3 houis in jail.

According to the police dm Lung isan old offender at the chicken steal-ing game. Ho has long been suspect-ed, but it was not until this week thathe finally tripped up. Word reachedDeputy Sheriff Ferreira early Mondaymorning that a fine bunch of chick-rn- s

FRIDAY : 1915. TOP! LOOKS TEN!THE HA NT CASH AXD OUR AUDITIXG SYSTEM.

is something radically wrong with thv county's auditingsy.sk m. The law pro ides for a county auducr and prescribes hisduties, hut these duties a.s outlined to deal entirely with theissuing of county warrants, auditing the county treasurer's accounts,and keeping the hooks of the county. The references regarding thechecking up of the hooks of the various count)-- officials are vague.County Auditor Wilcox admits that he had not audited the books ofCircuit Court Clerk Edmund II. Hart for three or four years, hutdeclares that his other duties have prevented, and that the supervisorsin the past hac his request for more assistance in his office,which would give him time to check up the accounis of county officials.

Some of the responsibility for the laxness in the system seems tohe up to tlie territory. The territory bank examiner is eniovered,but not specifically required to examine the books and accounts ofevery official in the county. This never been done. In fact it hasonly been in the past two years, since Territorial Treasurer McCarthyhas been in office, that the position of bank examiner been filledat all.

Of course it is plain that Edmund Hart could never haveinto the position he is in today, had there been regular and thoroughchecking of his books at intervals of three or six months. It is also truethat all the other county officials and departments, save that of thecounty treasurer and possibly the district magistrates, arc in the

defalcations would be still unsuspected had not Judge Edingsinsisted on having an audit made. Nobody has demanded a like auditof the other accounts of the county. They may be all right we sincere-ly hope they are until they are audited, and kept checked up atlrcqucnt intervals nobody can be sure. The present system is fairneither to the officials nor to the public. Let us have light and then achange of system.

8 8 it aTAX VALUES AXD REAL VALUES.

Real estate in Hawaii, for purposes of is supposed to beassessed at its actual value. The federal government has just offeredthe owners of the "Irwin site" $15,000 above the assessed valuationfor this property for the purpose of erecting thereon a federal build-ing in Honolulu. It appears that the land in question is entered fortaxation at about $155,000. The owners demand $230,000.

In some parts of Australasia they have the science of taxationworked out on a good deal different basis than wc have in America. Insome countries, when a man places a valuation on his property to the taxassessor, the government has the option of purchasing it at 10

addition to this value. If the assessor decides that the propertyis worth more than the owner claims, he may fix the value, and theowner may force the government to take it off his hands at that priceif he so desires.

n n nARMY OFFICERS AS OBJECT OF CHARITY.

The army officers who own having lost their case interritorial courts, through which they hoped to escape paying taxes ontheir machines, as ordinary citizens do, are preparng to take the fightinto the United States court. It isn't a pleasant reflection that the menwho are paid good salaries from the common purse for the work they

are so anxious to get into the tax-dodg- er class. Nor is it clearwhy this class of citizens should demand and receive discountsfrom merchants and business houses for purchases they make. IfUncle Sam doesn't pay them enough to live on, their salaries shouldbe raised, it is decidedly unbecoming that they should beinto the position of being even partially dependent on or charityot the community in which they happen to be living.

8 8 8 8 8A JOB WE MUST SEE THROUGH.

The auditing of the books of Circuit Court Clerk Edmund Hartbe no half-wa- y job. It is already evident that it is going to

be a complicated and difficult task to straighten out the tangle offour years of negligence. l!ut it is a matter that the public now demandsbe done thoroughly, and that it does not stop until it is finished. And itwill not be finished until not only the court accounts are untangled,

also every office in the county, that handles public or private money,be overhauled also and started off with a clean slate. The cost ofdoing this as it should be should not be considered. The costof not doing it is the only thing that should be thought of right now.Iet us know just where we stand.

n n nThe success of such men as Ren Lindsay, of Denver, and of such

reform efforts as have established the George Jr. Republic, is the strong-est possible commentary on the recent disheartening failure of Hawaii'sefforts to handle its youthful delinquents. When boys of the slums ofour great cities can be fired with the spirit of citizenship, allclaims of the incorrigibility of Hawaii's bad boys becomes doublyludicrous. hat, others have we can do and we must do it

8 8 8 8 8For the past 30 years Hawaii has been just on the verge of reach-

ing the limit of production of sugar; and still the real limit is probablya good ways off. Last year's output was the highest in the Islands'lmtory 040,446 tons. A million-to- n crop does not now seem moreimprobable than this past year's crop would have seemed ten oryears ago. The price of year's product is also most gratifying,averaging $S9.80S per ton.

8 8 8 8 8The Maui supervisors have gone on as opposed to setting

the precedent of equipping school grounds with play apparatus. TheHonolulu board isn't of this kind of precedent, for it has justplaced an order for a large assortment of fancy and expensive ap-paratus to delight the kids and develop their muscle.

8 8 8 8 8The territory indicted and is trying thirteen reform boys

for "unlawful assembly." It is invoking the same old methods thathave been m use for the past thousand years or so. In some placesthey think they have found a better way of handling bad boys than bytreating them as ordinary criminals.

8 8 8 8 8If the public sentiment has any force, the loan fund commissioners

will have strong backing in its practical protest against the delays ofIn cutting the gordian knot, by simply ordering the work in

hand to proceed, commissioners will have the support of the entirecommunity.

8 8 8 8 8Honolulu has decided to treat the soldiers of the local army posts

as "regular people." That's fine, but how do they propose treatingthe officers? , (

oReform School Case Ended.

In less than an hour, the jury in thetrial of the d mutiny case atthe Boys' Industrial School, brought ina verdict of not guilty. Eleven boyswho had been charged with unlawfulassembly in connection with thetrouble at the school several weeksago were thus cleared of the chargein Judge Ashford's court in Honoluluon Tuesday.

Adds distinction or "class" to your correspondence.

It isn't only the business firm or professional man

who now raises his correspondence above the

mediocre through aid of the printer's art.

Just your name and address in neat lettering at top

or corner of the sheet will add an individual touch

that at once raises your letter above the dead level

of "ordinary".

The additional cost per letter is trifling.But of course much depends on the printing.

The Christmas number of thn Mid-

Pacific Magazine, off the press thisweek, is by far the most pretentiouseffort that has yet boon made in maga-zine publishing in Hawaii. The num-ber consists of 210 pages, and almostentirely of illustrations. Some 20 fullpage color cuts of Hawaiian scenery,together with a rich cover of whichthe motif Is a beautiful color photo- -

gravour of one of the rarer of the Ha-waiian hisbisci, makes this number of(ho one (hat will doubtless bo highly prized. Short, pnappydescription accompanying the pictureslures, are also a very comprehensiveguide to travel, not only in Hawaii,but throughout (he Pacific lands aswell.

County Cuts InsuranceFrom Its Expenditures

At its meeting last week, tho coun-ty supervisors decided not to carry in-

surance on any of tho county propertyexcept on the county clerk'B officebuilding, tho county garage, in Wallu-ku, tho automobile flro truck, and an-other autotruck. Tho matter came upin connection with the proposal sub-mitted to renew insurance on a num-ber of buildings which have heretoforobeen insured. It was tho sense of themembers that tho county could betterafford to take tho risk of fire on thobulk of Its property, than to pay thopremiums on insurance.

As is now stands none of tho schoolbuildings or other structures aro pro-tected against flre, except tho twobuildings mentioned in Wailuku.

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT.

In tho Second District court thisweek, Charles Copp was permitted toresign as guardian of tho Ralstonminors, and Judge Edlngs ap-

pointed Henry Smith, of Honoluluin his place. Tho new guardian tookover his duties and the custody of$756, the property of the children.

An action to quiet title was filedin tho circuit court yesterday by W.A. Clark vs. Jose Sllva. Tho suit hadbeen previously brought against Mrs.William Miner, but was later dis-missed.

Eugene Murphy, last week, broughtsuit against E. II. Hart, and W. T.Robins-o- and J. Garcia, as his bonds-men to recover money claimed tohave been deposited with Hart, asclerk of the court, Later an answerwas filed by tho defendant Garcia inwhich denial was made that ho hadever gone on Hart's bond. It is un-

derstood that it was A. Garcia Insteadof J. Garcia, who Is Hart's bondsman.

Judge Edlngs departed for Hono-lulu on Wednesday afternoon and willnot return until after the holidays.There will be no work in tho circuitcourt, therefore, until after tho firstof tho year.

Thosupervisors, however, expressed theirwillingness, at last week's meeting, tolisten to any new proposition whichtho owners of tho property expresseda deslro to submit.

As an advertising feature, the MaulDry Goods & Grocery Company has bo-gu- n
