Throughout the issues Of the COM

encouraging words relative to the work
on the canal and the human touch" as
exemplified in marriage notices, per
sonal items and praise of this or that
shovel crew which during the last week
or month broke all records for eXca-
vation' on the canal Each month the
paper prints the aggregate record of
work done on the canal the month pre-
vious, and each month this record
shows the estimated amount of ex-
cavation growing smaller and the ag-
gregate amount Of filling and concrete
work growing larger. The influence of
q family newspaper like the Canal
Record upon those whose deeds it re
cords, with the activity of the govern
ment itself in all matters affecting
their personal welfare, will doubtless
cause many Americans now in Pan
anna to regret the day when the canal
itself is finished and their work is done.

perience in the art of debating which
will be beneficial to them next year and
the years to come, and which will more
than make up for any lack of profici-
ency along other lines.

and il is generally believed that he
will waive examination when his case
comes up for trial in the district
court. The maximum sentence on the
charge against Kealoha is one year
Imprisonment and $500 fine. f.
The arrest of Kealoha at this time
is brought about by his refusal to re-
sign his position as supervisor and the
glaring. extravagances Which are still
being practiced in North Hilo. If he
had resigned, ii is said that no action
would have been brought until a
month or two later. 1t is not believed
il conviction is secured on the
present charge against Kealoha that
the prosecution will stop with the
single charge, but that others of a
more serious nature will later be filed.
Extravagances that he practiced, or
really authorized, in the North Hilo
district was a matter of surprise to
even his supervisorial brothers when
the demands for his district were
placed before the finance committee
at this months meeting. The total
demands for his district amount to
$4,000 for two months, which is sew.

district has ever spent in past years

iIlLO. July 11.--WIson .Nahaisuelua
vas placed under arrest, yesterday,
The fourth to be arrested as result
OF the graft investigation that threat
ems to prove a series of surprises to
the uninitiated on Hawaii He is
charged with certifying falsely to the
payroll Of the North Hilo district for
September The name George Dixon
appeared n the payroll and 20 days
work were allowed for Dixon and paid
by the county. /: develops that no
such person as Dixon was ever en-
,loyed in the district. Nahakuelua is
road supervisor in this district.
Supervisor John A. kealoha was
arrested Wednesday evening on d
warrant, sworn TO by Attorney Breck-
ems and issued by Judge Wise, which
charges that he has falsely certified
to u payroll. This is the first action
taken against Kealoha since the re
cent disclosures as to the misuse of
road funds in the North Hilo district,
were made during the investigations
Of Civic Expert Field and told to the
public through the island press. The
statute under which the action is
brought is one seldom used and is
not familiar to most attorneys.
Kealoha had just left meeting OF
the supervisors when he was inform
cd that he was wanted at the Sheriff s
office. He walked across the street
from the county building to the police
station and took a seat on the lanai
where he remained after the warrant
had been served and until bondsmen
were secured. Late in the evening A.
Ms. Cabrinha consented 10 go the su
pervisor's bail which was fixed at
$500.
The particular charge upon which
the arrest was made is based upon the
David Nation warrant, for which a
demand was put in to the supervisors
last month by Kealoha. Field found
in starting his North Hilo investiga-
lions that although a warrant had
been issued in favor OF David Mattoon
for the sum of fifty dollars, for what
was claimed to have been twenty days
service rendered as a road overseer,
that he in reality had not worked at
all for the county, and was employed
a. the time in the plantation office
at Papaaloa.
Formerly there was a brother OF
David Mattoon, now deceased, James,
who held the position of road oyerSeer
in that district David had never been
commissioned to fill the vacancy left
by the death Of his brother The fifty
