DEPUTY OF KAU
RESENyS CHARGE
Graft Receipts Found
By Alfonso Subject
To New Light
Especial to the Bulletin,)

HILO. Oct. 26.-Deputy Sheriff
Kekaula of Kau is much wroth at
License Inspector Alfonso on account
of the report which he made alleging
that the police of that district had
been grating In the matter Of the
license fee collections. He has given
vent to his feelings in a letter to
Editor David Ewaliko of the Mala-
malama, which will appear in that
paper this week. Mr.. Ewaliko has
kindly furnished the Tribune with
translation of this communication,
as follows:
THE GUN EXPLODED WITHOUT
HITTING A BIRD.
To the Editor of the Malamalama:
Through the columns of the Hilo
Tribune of Oct. IL, 1909, was pub
lished the statement OF the License
Inspector of the County of Hawaii In
regard to the collection OF licenses
In and for the district of Kau by the
police officers of said district.
On the 29th day of September,
1903, ! went over to. Pahala with
Judge w. II. Hayselden to hold court
there. and while was there I met
s *. Pua and G. +. Alfonso (license
Inspector. was introduced to Az
fonso by s. X. Pua. There was
nothing said between us in regard to
licenses until ! left Pahala, and |
nveer met Alfonso since then.
IL is true that the police officers or
the district gave receipts for what
money they have received, and I did
II also. There was no payment made
to me without receipt being given
Tor the same. and some of these re-
ceipts are In the hands of the license
inspector, with which he made his
report to the Board of Supervisors of
the County of Hawaii. All the
moneys collected were turned over
to the Treasurer of the County OF
Hawaii.
The license inspector spent, three
days In the district of Kau; he even
came as far as Waiohinu during this
time, but did not know OF his
presence. and I was willing to help
him in his work. My home is In
Waiohinu. and II is only few feet
from the government road, yet the
license Inspector did not try to see
me pertaining to the collections OF
licenses. although he well knew that
ne had some OF the receipts In his
possession, an 1t was proper to con.
suit with the police In regard to this
matter. But instead OF consulting
me or my police officers about the H.
cense money. he.went so far MS to
publish this whole story In the news
paper.
AS matter OF fact, the money was
still In the hands of the Kau police,
which he did not know. do not
believe he even asked The treasurer
about this money

Der OF receipts have been given out
to those taking out licenses for 1908.
and when the licensees are issued TO
them, the common receipts viii be
taken back from them, some of
which have been returned while
Others are still outstanding, as the
holders of such receipts are out
working.
