The general taxpayers reading the
morning paper must necessarily come
to the conclusion that Mr.. Damon has
SS29,60495 ''locked up" and unac-
counted for. Mr.. Damon probably
is realizing the fact, that the nation
al debt of Hawaii is far beyond the
S4,O00,000, which the United States
assumed at the time of annexation,
and that his reserve fund will be
needed to meet the other obligations
of the defunct republic. We don't
consider it bad financering that an
honest business man desires to leave
his;accounts straight, when be sur
renders them to his successor, and
have his assets cover his just liabili-
ties. That is evidently the policy of
Mr.. Damon.
