F OUGHT HARD
To PREVENT
INQUIRY

Rufus Lyman, former secretary TO che
license commissioners of the County Of
Hawaii, significantly remarked a short
time after he had been sentenced TO
thrcc years Imprisonment last year:
'"They are on the right track and il
the investigation is continued they will
get the others"
This is as near to confession ms
! Lyman has come. Since then he has
been only nominally prisoner in care
of Sheriff Henry's guards ON Hawaii,
| living "on the fat of the land" and
treated royalty by Mcguire and othors
of his old associates.
| The long expected sensational iisclo-
ures came with the report Saturday anu
recall the claims made by the board of
/ supervisors last August following the
filing of the report of H. Gooding Field,
! the expert accountant. Many members
of that board were defeated in the No.
vember election, but some continue to
represent the county rs members Under
date of August 10 last the supervisors
| attempted to come to this aid of Ma
lguire by denouncing Field s report as
false and not based on facts. Follow

from Hilo published in Tho Advertiser
of that date:
"HILO, August l0.-In reply to the

BEST or FEELING
AMONG VETERANS
AT the Gettysburg Battlefield
Celebration Mr.. Nor
ris Declares.
Ia. CIare. ~. ".

JULY z. 1913.
Editor OF the Telegram.
In one paragraph OF my letter
from Gettysburg dated July 3. your
typesetter seems to. have baked in
describing the action OF the Confed-
crate sharpshooter concealed in the
pass between the rocks at Devils
Den. What L tried to say in the
copy was that he had picked two
generals and one colonel from their
horses, and two or. three gunners
from their guns on Little Round Top
In his firt before his location was
discovered, and the bursting Of some
shells about him from the federal
batteries numbered him among those
whom he haid slain.
would like also to correct an err
roneous idea prevailing here that
the old veterans of the two armies
had fallen out and engaged in riot
while at Gettysburg. The fact is
the best of feeling prevailed
throughout the encampment and II
there was an unkind feeling upon
the part OF anyone toward another
/ failed to hear OF 1t. To the con
trary there were scenes of affection
enacted there between the two fac
tons OF the old armies that brought
tears to the eyesNof many Of the. old
grizzIed veterans. and helped to
further weld the bonds that bind US
as united people.
That stabbing ARRAY published by
the newspapers was only bar room
episode, and was instigated by one
or those bar room "bullies" who
never saw service in either OF the
armies. That any veteran was
brought into the muss was because
Of some insulting remarks BY this
bully" concerning Abraham Lin
coin most any patriotic citizen would
resent. II any reader should doubt
my statement Of the good feeling
that prevailed between the vets, let
him ask any veteran OF the gray
Who attended this long to be remen'-
bered assemplage.

the theaters Thursday morning by
notifying the managers to close
them until changes we're made in
what he regards hazardous coldi-
lions in case of fire. The managers,
the chief and the mayor then held a
meeting and the theater operators
decided to appeal from the Reynolds
decision to the chief fire marshal OF
the state. When they arrived at
this decision, the city chiefs orders
were suspended twenty-four hours

tinue to operate for that length OF
time.

made a thorough inspection of the

he stopped at store and made a
small purchase. rendering i've dol,
