that Hawaii shall have one of its own
citizens on the Republican National

Maine. Nothing could be fairer than
this to all concerned.

of Trouble. -
REPCBIIC SPECIAL.


GAINESVILLE. o.. June 1-Chief Of Police
Tracy is willing to admit that he has
played one practical joke too many.
A day of two ago Chief Tracy determined
70 play a good joke on d. Williams. travel
ing representative of an Indianapolis brew
ing company. the two having spent the
major portion OF the day together. In the

EXPERTS EXAMINING
VEHICLE LICENSES.
Wholesale Abuse of Ordinances
Observation-Disclosures Tags Taken
Up and Cancelled.

Clerks and inspectors have been busy all
week in the office of License Commissioner
whyte comparing the reports of the special
officers and detectives with the license rec
Oris for the purpose of ascertaining the
number of bogus vehicle license tags in use
in the city.
The work of the detectives was very
thorough, Commissioner whyte says. and
will enable the city to claim a large amount
of money for municipal revenue that has
passed by the city treasury heretofore.
Comparison OF the reports with the official
records reveals wholesale abuse of license
ordinances by many people
To correct this abuse Mr. Whyte de-
clared that a raid on unlicensed vehicles
would commence on June 5. and collections
have increased marvelously. Many appli-
cants admit that they had bogus tags and
some willingly state the names of the
donors and sellers. In consequence of this
rush yhe raid may be postponed for a few
days.
Whoever may have fancied that Com
missioner Whyte would not pursue the in
vestigation to a final stage to purify con-
ditions need only glance at the typewrit-
ten statements containing the names OF
concerns using bogus tags. Mr.. Whyte's
dictum is that everybody using a license
must pay the city for it.
Il am gratified with the work of the Po-
lice Department said Mr.. Whyte yester-
day. THE detectives have procured vaIua-
bic information and have given ME facts
that will compel compliance with the ordi-
nances. 1t is my Purpose to continue this
investigation and 10 enforce the laws. The
public will know the names of persons who
do not pay the city revenues to which IT Is
rightfully entitled"
