flee to the district to which the col.
lection refers, to be, in turn. sent by

By introducing up-to-date methods OF
assessment and collecting of taxes
in all the tax Offices of the territory,
a saving of at least $4,000 a year
could readily be made.
Decrease in Assessed Valuations Of
Property.
The 1913 assessed value of real and
personal property in the territory
amounted to $175.201,161, whereas
the valuation for 1914 is only $159,.

alton, found that the year 1907 was
the banner year for the equitable dis.
tributiOn of expenditures. This was,
| discovered, the result of business
administration The cost to main.
tain the government in that year was
reduced to SO per cent of total out
lays. as against So per cent in 1906,
whereas the disbursements, account
of road work, increased from AZ per
cent in 1906 to AZ per cent in 1907
This favorable state of affairs, how
ever, did not last long, as in 1908 the
expenses of government jumped to
"a per cent of total OUTLAWS, leaving
only sc per cent for roads. The pill
ing up OF overhead charges in the
county of Hawaii has now become so
excessive that, without prompt and
radical changes in administrative
methods, and with the continuation
of the present basis of taxation for
revenue, there is no hope for road
betterments in that county. The
slump in taxes to be appSed to the
needs of Hawaii from the 1914 basis
of assessed valuation of real and per-
sonal property is a still further argu-
ment for retrenehment.
Present Road Expenditures and
Gloomy Outlook.
In the city and county of Honolulu
during the years 1911 and 1912 there
was expended approximately $4,000
monthly to maintain its $50 miles of
roads This mileage is made up as
follows: $50 miles in the city proper,
80 miles in the outer districts and
80 miles of belt road. In 1912 $175,-
600 was spent on road maintenance;
of this amount $4,000 was disbursed
to maintain, approximately, one half
of the total mileage in Honolulu prop
er, the balance of $4,000 being ex-
pended in making temporary repairs
on but a very small percentage of
the other 10 miles of road in the out.
lying districts. Not more than one
half of the city roads are maintained
in any one year, 1t can be safely
estimated that with only $4,000 per
annum available for road mainten-
ance in the city and county of Homo
lulu, so per cent of the total road
mileage is deteriorating to such an
extent that before many years have
elapsed they Will have to be entirely
rebuilt. -.

account of salaries and wages. as
graphically outlined, should leave no
doubt in the minds of the taxpayers
that by the steady increase of salary
charges from year to year, We have
now reached a point beyond any spec
ulation on the score of wanton ex-
travagance. 1t must be distinctly
understood that when county govern
ment went into effect in 1905, the
compensation allowed the heads of
departments, and their assistants,
was placed on very reasonable
basis. -. ..
$4,000 Year Wasted in Salaries
Alone.
We are wasting, approximately,
$4,000 a year in salaries alone to
run the offices of our city and coun-
ty, not considering the enormous in
crease in the pay roll of the band,
from $15,325 in 1907 to $25,335 in
1913, an increase of 65 per cent in
six years.
When | stated in my 1912 report to
the Chamber of Comcerce that the ex-
penses of the band should be de-
frayed, in part, by subscriptions from
dllu OluGI Uuo-
mess interests, my reasons for this
recommendation was that, as the
services of the band were frequently
utilized for the edification of depart
ing passengers and tourists to the
islands, and other functions not local
in character, those benefited there
by should stand a just proportion Of
the expense ! agree that there is a
sentimental feature in the retaining
of the band, but our financial outlook
is a serious one, and we must take
stock of our resources. | have known
of number of wealthy men who
have visited these islands with their
families, bringing with them their au-
tomobile and chauffeur, who. by the
return steamer have left the islands
in disgust. The cause in every in
stance has been bad roads. To speed
the parting guest, with crouch, by
music, is not, to say the least, psyche
logical. Let us get roads first and
melody afterwards. ..-....-
In 1910, the wages at the jails
amounted to $12,489, as against
S12,S16 in 1918, and the salaries of
the office of building and plumbing
inspector jumped from $4,000 in 1910
