Could Work Both WAYS.

A tall, gaunt-looking person recently
entered an hotel In London and applied
for n room. The price he was willing
to pay entitled him to lodgings on the
top floor of The house Among his be-
longlngs the proprietor noticed coil
of rope. Upon being asked what the
rope was for, the parson replied !:
That's fire. escape; always carry one
with me now In case of Zeppelin raid
or fire, which l understand, often oc-
cur here, and then / am able to let
myself down from the window without
troubling anyone" "Yes," replied the
landlord stroking his chin reflectively ;
"seems like pretty good idea, but
guests with fire-escapes pay in advance

Tuesday, December II, 1917.

We notice from the Spartanburg
Journal that it is dangerous for
pedestrian to travel the strets OF
that city on account of the speeding
of the army automobiles from Namp
Wadsworth. The civil authorities 1t
is stated have no jurisdiction over
the army and the drivers know this
and become reckless in their driving.
That is another one of the privileges
or emoluments of having an army
camp. Let Mayor Floyd have chance
at them and he will teach them a
thing or two.
But this thing of speeding is not
confined to the soldiers at Camp
Wadsworth. The mania has taken
hold of those in civilian life just the
same.

CITY TREASURER IL.
DEFENDS BOARD
ConkIing Disputes Charges Made
BY l. L. McCahdIess, and
Gives Figures As Proof

p. J.. COnlling, the city treasurer, he.
lieves that l.. J.. 'McCandless is in er-
rnr fcw hundreds of thousands Of
dollars-paper money. Mr.. McCand-
less WAS quoted Yesterday morning to
the effect that the bond issue to be
voted upon was "thrOwing snOwballs
into hot ovPn.'' To buttress this he
cited figures, to show that the increase
in taxes on. the island of Oahu during
1916 was $I75,669 more than il was
during 1915, and $S3S.09l more than il
was during 1914. This means that the
present board had had 1895, 09l more
to spend than the board that preceded
il.
Mr.. Conkling said, that for general
fund and permanent improvements, the
present supervisors had had 81 ,3IS,39L..
Il, whereas the preceding Democratic
board had had $l,l70, 1886, a differ.
'nce of $l69, 1881. instead of a few
thousands in excess of $500, 900.
The county received fiftyrsix per cent
IF the Oahu taxes last year, and the
Territory the rcmainder-fOrty.fo four per
,ent. Instead Of the county Being Civ.
en- not more than twO-thirds of the re,
'elIlS, dS lut "BlSluluTt uuy HuNO lH'
tended, it receives not more than two
thirds of one per cent of the assessed
valuation Of the year preceding. But
at no time has the cOunty's share been
more than fifty seven per cent Of the
receipts, Mr. Conkling said.
The rate last year was 1873 per
cent, and this year probably will be
about %, said the treasurer. or the
1916 taxes collected in the county
81 pa ,024.4l, which is 1878 per cent
of the assessed valuation--the county
got .6GG6 of one per cent of the assessed
valuation and the Territory 1904 OF
one per cent, or, in other words, the
comfy received fifty .hundredths OF
one per cent of the receipts instead OF
sixty six.
The supervisors are given no powers
| whatever ~ to taxation, Mr.. COnkhng
pointed out. Although the territorial
| treasurer, with the approval of the
| Governor, may levy an additional tax
Of one fourth of one per cent in year,
| during which the legislature does not
meet, the supervisors are held strictly
] to the. maximum of twO-thirds of one
| per cent Of the assessed valuation.
This, Mr.. Conkling believes, is a con
! ditiOn that should be remedied, and thai
fight should be made in the approach
ing session Of the, Legislature. At tho
same time, he does not agree with Mr.
