COUNTY UPON A
WARRANT BASIS
Not a Dollar in the TiII-ShingIe
Comes to the Rescue-No
ScaIping Necessary.
From Saturdays Advertiser,)

From Saturdays Advertiser,)
The City and County of Honolulu is
''busted.'
Yesterday the last dollar was dug
out of the municipal treasury and hand.
ed over the counter. Not sou is there
to meet the hundred and ten thousand
dollars worth of bills expected between
now and June, when a golden shower
will fill the at present aching void.
This morning, for the first time in
eight years, the county goes upon a
registered warrant basis.
But, thanks to the hustling of Treas
urer Shingle, not an employe of the
city and county will know the differ
ence. Every man who takes his war
rant to the treasury will get its equiv
alent in gold and silver, one hundred
cents upon the dollars. There will be
no discounting of warrants, no five or
ten or twenty per cent. gouged off the
payrolls.
Treasurer Shingle has made arrange.
ments to cash all the warrants at par
and do it right in his own Office. Mr.
Shingle has not explained who is to
put up the hundred and ten thousand
which is the required amount-and
lose the two and half months in
terest on it. In all probability, the
laborers and the others will not care
particularly who is out, provided they
are not.
OF course there is politics in this
but it looks like pretty good politics
to enable the city to pay its bills il
coin instead of promises to pay.
The reason for the baroness of tn,
exchequer is the change in the ia,
law made by the last legislature, whicl
allows gap of three months between
tax receipts and license income. Al
ter June there will be money to burn.

Conflicting Reports.

In some unaccountable manner, the
Associated Press "fell down" yester.
day in sending to Honolulu the news
of the congressional division and de-
bate in the house on the Free Sugar
Bill. The afternoon papers yesterday
failed to carry word from the news
bureaus and this morning the vote re.
mains in doubt.
The Star resolved a special despatch
from Washington announcing the divi-
zion as: for free sugar, 1893; against,
1903, but as this leaves eighty-nine
members unaccounted for, the figures
are open to doubt. The apparent con-
firmation of the vote in a Especial
despatch" to the Bulletin is generally
regarded as an attempt on the part OF
that paper to save its face. The gen
eral opinion is that the Bulletin simply
stole the Stars despatch and labeled
it a Especial"

Reported Senate Action.

A private despatch to Ed. Pollitz yes
terday morning read: "Senate finance
committee makes adverse report sugar
tariff BILL" on the strength Of which
stocks went up yesterday. The des-
patch came, according to R. w. Shin
gle, from the Washington representa-.
tive of the Sprekels and allied inter
ests, and is capable Of two interpreta-
tIons.
The first is that the Underwood bill
was rushed from the house to the senate
and given quick action, to relieve the
tension in the sugar market. The
finance committee of the senate, which
is Republican, may have discussed the
bill in advance, in anticipation of its
passing in the house, and presented its
report Immediately.
The second Interpretation, which
seems the more logical, is that the cable
refers to preliminary poll of the
senate committee, taken without hav
ing the bill in hand, but in order that
the sugar men might know the feeling
of the committee on the far.reachinl
! tariff onslaught in the house.

Attacked for Years.

For years Doctor Wiley had been the
object of persistent and bitter attack
by the interests menaced by the pure
food and drugs act and repeated efforts
were made to force him out of the
service. This was almost accomplished
last year, when charges were brought
against him in the "Rusby case, "
which arose over the employment by
the bureau of chemistry of DR.. II. IL.
Rusby, of New York, pharmacognosist
of the bureau.
Doctor Wiley was charged with hav-
ing conspired to pay Doctor Rusby a
salary of $1,000 year, with the tacit
understanding he was to do only enough
work to secure this amount, at the rate
of twenty dollars day. This was held
/ to violate the act of congress which
declared that no classified scientific in
vestigator should receive more than
nine dollars a day.
/ After thorough investigation OF
the matter by the committee on person
mel of the department of agriculture
it recommended that Doctor Wiley be
given an opportunity to resign. But
President Taft exonerated him from
any intentional wrongdoIng and not
only would not ask for his resignation
but took the opportunity to praise hin
highly for his work in enforcing the
laws designed to protect the peopl,
from fraud and from the injury du,
to food and drug adulteration.
Many Honors.
Doctor Wiley, who is a native of In
diana, is a graduate of Hanover Col
lege, Indiana, 1867, receiving his MA
and MD. from the Indiana State Medi
cal College, Ph.D and LID. from
Hanover College, and BIS. from Har
ward University. In 1909 Doctor Vile,
J was awarded the Cross of the Legion o
Honor of France for his services t
the Maritime Exposition at Bordeaux il
1907 in connection with adulteration
of wines and the laws for the repression
| thereof. In 1910 Doctor Wiley wa
, signally honored by the Franklin In
stitute, of Philadelphia, in being award
ed the Elliott Cresson medal for ed
distinguished, leading, and iirectiv
work" in his special field of endeavc
agricultural and physiological chen
istry.
