quest that the court direct and order
the Auditor of the Government to ex-
anime all the records and accounts of
the Office under suspicion, according
to law. We also recommend that the
clerk of the court be suspended from
all official duties, until such time as
the books and accounts are found to
be in order.
( Recommendation Ignored.
This grand jury would respectfully
call the courts attention to the fact
that in past terms the grand juries
have met, made reports. recommcnda
tons, etc, etc, which have been en-,
tirely ignored. II this is going to be-
continued, It is useless for the Govern.
ment to go to the expense of having a
grand jury to investigate public mat.
tiers.
A Complete Farce.
The thing as It is at present Is
nothing more or less than a complete
farce!
"Just who is to blame for these
things we do not know. but we would
ask this honorable court to have, 1t
brought to the attention of the props.
Officials, and as far as possible have
the recommendations OF the grand ju
,,ries carried out.
Jurors Not Paid.
The grand jury would call your
honor's attention to the fact that the
Jurors and other creditors OF the court
for the December, 1902, and June, 1902,
terms have not been paid until the
present time. We questioned the
Treasurer of the Territory in regard to
this matter, and he informed us that
the money had been available since
last July, but from neglect or other.
wise on the part Of the clerk of the
court, the vouchers have not been sent
to Honolulu in the proper shape.
During this last week some of the
Jurors OF these terms, that is Deem
Der and June, have been paid; others
have not, and Just why the clerk of the
court has seen fit to make this distinc.
ton we do not know.
Bills Owing.
I'VE are informed that there are
bills owing at Lahaina to people in
business there. These things are not
as they ought to be, and brings dis.
credit upon the Government and court.
I'VE have received a letter from
Mrs. Anna Gertz Of Honolulu, making
complaint and charges against Deputy
Attorney General Magoon, but as we
do not think that the matters are with.
in our Jurisdiction we have let the
! thing pass.
! There has been a complaint made
TO us about the collection of garbage
around the streets of Wailuku. We
would recommend that the road de.
partment have two prisoners detailed
daily to attend to this work.
I'VE. the members Of this grand jury
recommend that the clerk of this grand
, jury be paid for his services as clerk
q. at the rate of s. per day.
