HAWAII COUNTY is
PLUNG|NG into DEBT

HILO, Hawaii, September 3-The
County of Hawaii will probably be in
debt to the extent of 100000 by the
end of the year, according to a state
ment made today by Supervisor Ship
man of Kan, who is one of two on the
board who began by fighting the gross
extravagances favored by the majority,
but who has long since thrown up his
hands, unable to check the rapid back
sliding of the county into the bank
ruptcy stage.
BY recent distribution of tax
funds, this county came into 100000
and the deficits were met in manner
and the most pressing liabilities paid,
leaving some $4,000 in the treasury
at present. But, now, the majority of
the board, the Home Rulers helped by
the one Republican, Supervisor Supe,
have cut loose and from now on until
after the elections it is probable that
nothing will be considered but a wide
scramble for votes. By putting in new
road supervisors and making them re-
sponsible to none of the individual SUI
perNlsors, nut the Doaru llselI, al iocal
restraint in expense is taken off, and
from now on the road laborer is to be
not only worthy of his hire, but worthy
of being treated like a man with a
vote.
Everything will go now" said Mr.
Shipman, "and it would not surprise
me in the least if the County of Ha'
waii has to begin the coming year with
debt to meet of hundred thousand
dollars
