ryan LEFT, Then
LOOTING STARTED

Thomas j. Ryan, wellknown Demo
crat and former deputy county treas
urer of the County of Hawaii, be
lieyes that four days after he left
office the crooked work of Auditor
Mcguire began. Furthermore, declares
Ryan and a number of prominent
Democrats. it was the refusal of in
fluential businessmen and interests of
the Big Island to allow Ryan to stay
in office that opened the way to the
Mcguire regime of fund-juggling and
built UP what is believed to be o ring
of insiders" who kept the juggling
from becoming public
L. l.. MeCandless has in his pos
session a signed statement sworn to
on the ninth day of February, 1907
the date that Ryan left. office,
which shows that on that date the
books of the treasurer were straight.
This statement, declares Ryan, he In
sisted upon getting, because he was
afraid there might be some crooked
work done and he wanted his con-
nection with the county funds to be
above suspicion
Four days after this statement was
given to Ryan. the first OF the Ma
guire warrants drawn without au-
thorization was made out and used.
According to the examination made
by the Audit Company of Hawaii, the
first unauthorized warrant is dated
February IL, 1907.
Ryan declares, and there is good
grounds for believing him, that he was
forced out of office by interests which
would not stand for an honest man
being there" asserted McCandless
yesterday. 'The business men de-
manded that Ryan leave. He had
been in office since the beginning of
county government in 1905, appoint
ed deputy by Republican treasurer,
but he was too honest for the gang
of crooks who got the influence Of
the businessmen behind them.
The county act is all right. It pro-
vides for detailed and periodical aud
its and examination of accounts. But
there has to be an honest man in
office or the system will be juggled
with, as happened after Ryan was
forced out. He was forced out because
he was Democrat and too honest to
stand for Republican grating"
The statement that Ryan secured
and that Is now in McCandless's
possession is signed by w. A. Todd,
chairman of the board of supervisors,
c. K. Mcguire, auditor, and Charles
Williams, county attorney.
