Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1907-12-30

iidCnCc In me when you stated in the
presence of myself and witnesses In
my saloon before the convention that
you wanted me as your deputy?
Deny II IL you can.
But after you are in Office you have
no confidence in me.
You say you placed me in the At.
torney Generals Office, where | could
40 no harm. When | was given the
keys and sent up there to take charge
of the lockers containing all the evi.
dCnce such as monies, etc, | wonder
If he had any confidence in me then.
And | ask him now II did my duty
and left everything to my successor
as straight rs a string.
lie speaks of my lack Of respect to.
ward him. Now really, Mr.. Sheriff,
wasn't it right the other way?
He says that was disappointed in
rot receiving the position Of captain
of police and the salary that went
with II. It's false and he knows II.
No such place was ever offered me,
but there are witnesses TO prove what
he did promise me. He speaks of my
record in the department during a
former service. / have nothing to be
ashamed Of in that respect.
Experience has taught me that
when some men have used you 10
further their ends; get out of you AL
they could by treachCry, etc, they
then seek to blacken you. This seems
20 be Mr.. Iaukea's policy. But /:
seems to me there was paper in Ho.
nolulu some time in the past that
limited his own skirts were spotted
No, Mr.. Iaukoa, Harry Juen Is not
wailing over his dismissal from the
police force as you say in Small
Talks" neither am ! boodlcr, and
never belonged TO the Home Rule
narty whose cry was XIII the snake"
But you did. ! am swaying no party
I nd nobody, never was capable and
have no such ambition.
Now to give an idea of some more
kind treatment I received from him
and Taylor. Ard the peculiar way
things are mahaged by them at the
station.
One day shortly after took Office
walked into the Bcrgstrom Music
store on Fort street and asked the
men In charge If they knew their
store was being Systematically robbed
They said they did not. told them
1t was and by whom "a man inside and
one ON the 0utsidel. They did not be
lieve It, but finally said that possibly
0 few records might be got away with
but nothing more. | told Mr.. Adams,
ii he had the lime to spare, ] would
show him not only records but graph
OphOncs. lie went with me and |
showed him place In palama where
he recognized Il nice new graphophonc
stolen from his store. He took the
machine back 20 the store and dis.
| charged the boy inside told him |
had pretty good proof there was more
stolen and went the next day and got
another machine and arrested tho
Chinaman.
then told Iaukea and Taylor what
| had done.
Right there ! could see the jealousy
! cropping out. 1t didn't look as If they
were going to do much about 1t for
while. But finally Taylor had the
Roy arrested, took him into his private
Office and in my presence the boy ad.
| mittod he and the Chinaman had been
lobbing the store. An hour or two
later he turned beth of them loose
without bail or bond and that's the
last of the case.
| want no praise for | have only
Gone my duty and | merely mention
this case to show the public that had
Taylor done it, what difference II
would have made. 1t shows there was
no one TO have any credit at the sta,
lion but the great and only sleuth.
II. A. JUEN.
