PROGRESS
IS SLOW
to Construction
With Less
Detail.

At 10 O'Clock last evening the Coun-
ty Act Commission adjourned with lit
tie accomplished. Chairman Cooper
read the remainder of his part of the
draft and it was agreed to with the
exception of the provision that the
county supervisors should fix the sal
aries of county officers. After brief
discussion it was decided that it would
be better to have these salaries fixed
in the act as is done in California.
Then Commissioner Watson began
to read his draft of that portion of
the bill relating to county officers and
their duties. That opened the >pyro-
technics. Mr.. Watson had found that
the present laws of the territory do
not cover many duties of officials
which have been carried out by GUS
tom. An example of this is the daily
account of monies received rendered to
the Auditor by the Treasurer which is
Indispensable but which is not requir-
ed by law. In order to cover these
numerous omissions and to provide for
a uniform system of financial admin
istration In the counties Mr.. Watson
had carefully drawn his sections So
as to embody the best usage in these!
matters.
Another thing that Mr.. Watson had
done was to carefully define the duties
and powers of the county officials. |
When he read his draft Stewart went
for him. He said that he did not
think that there was any need of 60
ing into detail in these matters. that
a bill which would start the counties !
off was all that was necessary and |
that the details could be arranged
later. He took the chapter of the Or
sanic Act relating to the powers of the
General and said that all that
was needed to provide for the powers

made the port of Honolulu. Still at
another time in midwinter he carried
skiff upon his shoulders from a dime
museum in Milwaukee during the
stormy month of December. and in
the same craft that he bore through
the streets of the Wisconsin city he
crossed the ice-bound Lake Michigan
amid storms thar made navigation in
the largest vessels dangerous.
Papers all over the United States and
England have been filled with the eX-
ploits Of the daring navigator. In his
scrapbook the Lone Mariner" has
pasted the history of his death-defy-
ing adventures. During the greater
part of his life he has been alone upon
the sea, and now again. after a series
o. misfortunes, he seeks the solitude
OF the sea to escape the terrors of life
he has found on dry land.
With nothing but a quantity of
cooked and recooked coffee, salt horse
and flour and a rusty, broken gaso-
line stove with which to keep him
warm. he had been brooding over let
tiers from his starving children in
Biloxi until desperate.
Always before he had been able to
earn a good living, and until over
taken my misfortunes in Texas was
fairly prosperous.
Now he proposes to make any sors
of trip alone, to any portion of the
globe, if any man appears with suffi-
Gent appreciation for gallant exploit
to post a hundred dollars as a guar
antee of his return and take a half
interest in the cargo
On his last trip to the Alacran reefs
he collected a load of shells which,
when brought to the port Of
Houston and sold, brought him twelve
hundred dollars. He claims that he
can secure one Of twice that value by
making a more extended cruiee.

Dear Sir; I hope you will notice and
bear in mind the Importance of having
the Tax Assessors Office and duties
separate and apart from that of Tax
Collector and Deputy Tax Collector.
The Assessor should only be Asses
sor and have nothing TO do with the
collection of taxes. If there are to be
Deputy Tax Collectors. They should
be appointed by the treasurer and
their duties should be covered by the
treasurer's bond.
AS it was under the Defunct Coun-
ty Law. The asse@so was required to
give too large a bond and was COM
PEELED to go to planters for assistance
then planters dictated who should
be appointed as deputy assessors and
tax collectors-thereby completely con-
trolling the tax office. No doubt the
law was purposely drawn that way to
accomplish that result
Yours truly
