ing" said the urbane Treasurer. He
may not have used these exact words,
but the impression that Captain John
son correctly received was that lie
would not pay the warrant.
Captain Johnson executed a retreat
that would have done credit to Kuro-
patkin.
The warrant was a blanket one is
sued for the pay of the whole of the
men, in favor of superintendent john
son." the Treasurer explained to the
Star "and 1 do not think that under
the authority of the County Act
would have any right to cash it. / have
reported my action to Chairman Smith
of the Board Of Supervisors"
Chairman Smith promptly turned
over the communication to County At
torney Douthitt for his advice and
there, at this writing, the matter rests.
What the County Attorneys opinion
may be is of course one of those all
absorbing mysteries, but the layman
may be interested in noting the Sec
tons of the County Act which bear on
the point at issues
Section Is of that measure says: The
Auditor shall issue warrants on the
County Treasurer i'm favor of persons
entitled thereto in payment of claims
and demands chargeable against the
County which have been legally exam
ined, allowed, and ordered paid by the
Board of Supervisors"
Section 81 says, among other things,
that the Treasurer shall "dsburse
County moneys only on County
warrants issued by the County
Auditor" and so on and in a
later paragraph. when a warrant is
presented to the Treasurer for pay
ment, If there is money in the treasury
for that purpose he shall pay the same
and write or stamp on the face there
of Paid the date of payment and sign
his name thereto"
Unless there Is something deep and
dark concealed behind all this it would
seem that the Treasurer is fully pro-
tected by the warrant issued by the
Auditor under authority of the Board
of Supervisors and that the Treasurer
has nothing more to do than to act as
an automaton and pay out when he is
told, a sort of a human cash register
i'm fact.
The question OF the giving OF a
blanket warrant to Captain Johnson is
explained on grounds of eXpediency
The laborers in the Garbage depart
ment being hired by the day, the issu-
ance Of separate warrants would cause
needless work.

Honolulu Women Making
An Original Expedition
AROUND HAwAII-HAvE BEEN TRAMP
A MONTH DELIGHTED WITH TRIP-FEAR
OF WILD DOGS CAUSED THEM ABANDON THEIR WALK


A very novel trip is now being made
by a number of young women of Ho-
nolulu. They are walking around a
large part of the Island of Hawaii, and
although they have been out over Il
month, they were, according to last
enthusiastic over their trip and
expected to continue their pedestrian
expeditions for some time. In the par
ty are Mrs. Ashley, Mrs. Livingston,
Miss Whine, Miss Huntington and Miss
Hart. The majority of those in the
party are members of the Punahou
faculty.
The party walked over the Puma dis
trict last month covering about 800
miles. They went to the Volcano House
and walked from that place down -
Waiohinu, distance of so miles in two
stages. They left the Volcano House
one day last week at Z a. m, and reach
ed Pahala at p. m. of the same day.
covering 80 miles of the worst possible
kind of walking.
The crowd had planned to walk from
Waiohinu to Kona across the lava
beds, but they were dssuaded from
making such trip, as the wild dogs
are reported to be very ferocious in the
desolate places over the lava flow, and
it was thought that the women would
expose themselves unnecessarily TO
danger if they ventured upon that ex-
petition. The result was that they
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-08-02

gave up this trip and took the steamer
Mauna Loa at Honuapo and went 10
Hookena with the vessel. At Hookena
the trampers We're entertained by
Judge and Mrs. Kaai and other people.
1t was intended by the party to walk
from Hookena to Mahukona. They
have acquaintance all along that route
and will be entertained. They were en-
tertained at Pahala by Chong, the Chi
nese merchant of that section.
Throughout the entire trip which is
certainly a very unusual one for wo-
men to undertake, the party has met
with the utmost courtesy and kindness
They have been well treated and were
delighted with the expedition. The
party are all dressed alike. They wear
army cloth skirts, short of course,
shirts and army felt hats. They carry
their blankets across their shoulders
and also carry canteens. As a rule,
they have been able to arrange their
trips so as to have no difficulty in Sc
curing Accommodations overnight and 70
get dinner or breakfast. They stated
on the Mauna Loa this week, that they
expected to be out some time longer
before returning to Honolulu
All of the members of the party APP
peared to be in the best of health and
spirits and We're loud in their recon-
mendations of walking as a means of
securing robust health.

for that and that is about all the ex-
ira expense necessary. We have the
plant" and have made a start, so
that fifty or sixty more boys would
only necessitate additional room. The
teachers and assistants we have now
would be sufficient. 1 suppose, for
the satisfaction of the parents of the
boys now here, it would be well to
make arrangements for frequent me-
dical examinations of the new boys.
1T seems to me that this is the most
feasible solution of the difficulty.
Very respectfully,
ct. H. GIBSON"
Atkinson said this morning that he
had not given the mater sufficient
thought to form an opinion as to the
plan suggested by Gibson, but he was
enthusiastic in praise of the school.
"Mr. Gibson's suggestion is one to be
considered" he said. 1.-THE school at
Waialee is the most magnificent institu-
ton in the islands. Few people realize
what splendid work it is doing. The
boys are all happy and busy and are
receiving the finest kind of training.
The institution is nearly self-support-
ing and it is turning out fine well train
ed young men. 1t is a school to be
pround of in every way

SOIaCe Broke Record
For Wireless Signalling
NAVAL BARRIERS POINT STATION AT
O'CLOCK D1sTANT-THs is BEST
AMERICAN PREVIOUS RECORD
NILBs-vEssBIf MORNING.

A new record for wireless telegraph
signalling was established by the
transport Solace yesterday. She broke
all of her previous records for long dis
lance signalling. When 100 miles off
BARRIERS Point, the vessel got in touch
with the wireless station ashore and
announced the approach of the naval
vessel. The Solace stated the distance
she then was from Oahu, and asked
to have reported to Captain Lyon the
commandant of the naval station, the
fact that she was nearing Honolulu and
also requested that he be apprised of
the time that the vessel would go
alongside the naval wharf on wednes-

MANY PROTESTS
Continued from page one.)


which it is proposed to have the
saloons and the protest of registered
voters of the precinct. Owing to the
fact that some of the signers have
their names on petitions both for and
against the saloons, there was some
difficulty in ascertaining whether a
majority of voters had protested u
not, but it appears from a careful
count of the names that a clear major
ity of the voters of Waialua have sign
ed protest against the granting 1f
any saloon license at all.
The first name on the property-own-
ers' protest is that of the Waialua Ag-
ricultural Company, signed by Mana
ger w. W. Goodale. Goodale has also
signed the voters protest. In the case
of Ozaki which is made to cover all
the others, it is claimed by an express
sion in the protest against "any license
whatever" in Waialua district, there
are 113 names Of alleged voters signed.
Comparison with the registration lists
shows that 107 of them are registered,
while the other appear to be not on
the last register The total registration
of the precinct is POI, so that a major
fly are on the protest. According to
the law a license must be refused when
a majority of the voters protest and
then the matter is a subject for arbi-
tratiOn.
The matter is complicated, however,
by a counter petition in the case Of
Leong Chez. The petition has i15
names. 1t states that some of those
who signed it had already signed the
protest but that they did so without
knowledge of its contents and wish, 20
withdraw the protest and sign the
petition.
In all the cases It is expected that
there will have to be arbitrations. The
Hawaiian church at WaiaIua has taken
up the natter and is working against
the applicants and Manager Goodale Of
Waialua Plantation Is also very much
interested. He has written a letter to
Treasurer Campbell transmitting one
of the protests, and stating that he
regards it as important for the district
that the applications should be denied
There is a prospect of lively contest
before the arbitrators.
At Laie, the Mormon church is out
among the voters with a protest
against ], d. Hollis application. The
church has great influence in the dis
trict. and it is expected that this case
also will have to go to board of ar
bitrators.
still another protest has come from
Kauai. A japanese named Shirose has
applied for a license al Anahola, and a
protest purporting to be majority pro-
test has been received against the
granting of the license.

The best previous signalling that the

better than either of those records. The

There comes now a curious after
math Of the arrest of Circuit Court
Clerk Kellett on the charge Of having
appropriated to his own use funds
which belonged to the Barete Estate. 1t
may or may not have direct connec-
ton with Kelett's transactions but
that is a matter which will transpire
later.
July 10 last papers were filed by w.
c. Achi, as attorney for Rosalia Bareta,
who IS an inmate of the leper settle
ment at Molokai, charging that she
had been led by Father Clement, Faith
er Wendelin and Antonio Lopes to deed
certain property to Lopes. The prop
erty, which was left Rosalia Barete
by her deceased father is in Kalihi,
on King street near Kamehameha ~
road. The claim was that she had
great faith in the two priests and sign
ed the deed on their recommendation
The papers filed then asked that the
deed to Lopes be set aside and cancell-
ed and that the defendant be compell-
ed to deliver her proper deed.
