EYE WITNESSES REPORT
OVERFLOW OF LAVA
Cowboys From the Upper Greenwich Ranch
View Streams Of Lava Coming From
the Summit Crater.

Lava is overlooking from the Mokua-
weoweo crater, according to Informal
ton brought by the gasoline schooner
Eclipse and furnished from reports
sent in by cowboys employed upon
the upper Greenwich ranch on the Kona
side of the mountain, not far from
Miss Paris house whence she recently
wrote news of a sight of the confla-
grafton.
Captain Gahan of the Eclipse, which
arrived Monday afternoon from Napoo-
poo and Kailua, received word that
cowboys from the Greenwell ranch had
actually seen the overflow of the lava
and its distribution into seven streams
later united into two larger streams
of considerable volume, both flowing
in the same general direction and fol-
lowing the track of the 1887 flow
towards Kahuku ranch. This descrip-
ton practically corroborates the orig
inal wireless message transmitted from
Hilo. Previous information has placed
the original issuance of six streams,
converging later into one.
The wireless message received yes
terday stated that the lava was still
confined to the upper crater of Mokua-
weoweo not having overlapped it's
brim. The report from the Greenwich

It Is rather a poor advertisement to
go with the call for bids for bonds,
statement of Territorial finances which
would indicate bankrupt state Of the
Territory when county government
comes into operation the first of 1909.
1t might be honest If true, though hard
to represent things that way. TaKlns
the financial affairs of the Territory Tor
the two years ended December 81, l9O2,
and comparing them with the appro-
priations for the two years ending
June 30, 1905, no such lugubrious pros
pect as that just mentioned Is to be
unprecedented. On the contrary, a Ter
ritorial administration as economical
as that of the two years ended Decem-
Der 81 1902, together with an honest
and intelligent administration of affairs
by the counties, ought to bring the
taxpayers through upon smooth seas
in the initial experience of county gov
eminent. 1t is to be taken for granted
that the current revenue for the pres
ent biennial period will not fall below
that of the two years with which COM
parison is being made. Then let fig
ures talk.
The current revenue for the two
years ended December 81 1902, was s5,-
655, S11.07. For the same period the cur
rent expenditures were S5,144, Alb.
Thus a snug balance of $511, 1876 was
left in the treasury. 1t Is to be remem-
bered that there was no loan money to
spend in those two years, which would
naturally cause a greater drain than
usual upon current revenue.

THE FIGURES
DON'T FORETELL
BANKRUPTCY
Economic Government Will Garry
Territories and Counties
Safely Through.

The appropriations under current
revenue for the present biennial period,
beginning July /, 1908, amount to s4,-
s92, O51 81 ali told. Surprising the cur
rent revenue do not exceed that for the
two years here compared, the expendi-
ture Of these appropriations would
leave a surplus of 1868, 1885 at the end
of this period. 1t is said there is
floating debt of about s7500OO. Much
of this came over from the previous
period, but, allowing that it all came
over and were added to the appro-
priations for this period, its payment
would make the aggregate expenditure
but $50, 24O44 in excess of the sum of
current revenue for the two years end
ed December 81, 1902.
Another thing to be remembered is
that large proportion of the appro-
priations on current revenue account
are for the benefit and use of counties,
while the counties are to assume bur-
dens that the Territory had previously
sustained. 1t is probably too much to
expect that the Territory will be saved
as much expense as the counties are
to assume. Two sets of governments
will not merely divide the cost Of a
single set, as there must be consid-
cradle duplication and overlapping of
similar functions. Yet, with economy
and business judgment in both estab-
lishments, the excess of the combined
expenditures over the present cost of
government ought not to spell bank
ruptcy.

ranch, sent down to Kailua Is gen.
orally credited as being more likely to
be correct than information dispatched
from Hilo and made up probably from
judgment based on views of the out
break from a lower elevation than
that attained by the cowboys who claim
to have actually seen the running lava.
1t is now week since the eruption
and the fact that the lava has not yet
reached the lower levels indicates that
an overflow must have been of very
recent occurrence or that the lava is
descending very slowly. A-a. COM
posed of Stabilize masses carried on
the bosom of the pahoehoe is very
sluggish in it's flow needing the medium
of the more fluid pahoehoe to he set
in motion. A flow of pahoehoe free
from the solder a-a runs readily to
the lower levels like molten iron from
furnace.
Parties who started for the summit
from Hilo are expected to make their
first returns today when definite news
of the nature and character of the
eruption and flow will doubtless be OBJ
tainable.
The Eclipse reports an especially
brilliant display, visible from Kailua,
on Friday evening.
