HONOR SYSTEM RECOMMENDED
by TAXPAYERS To ASSESSOR
Claim Is Made That It Reduces Costs and In
creases Collections; County Unit Schools
Condemned Again by Association.

The Cascade County Taxpayers as
sociation went on record Thursday
night as favoring the immediate adop-
ton of the honor system" Of making
assessments, and the publication by the
county assessor of all tax assessment
lists in the county, for mailing to each
taxpayer as soon after May l of each
year as is possible. The association
took this action in the belief that the
'honor system supported by the pub
ication of the lists, would not only re-
duce assessment expenses but make
possible the detection of those persons
who are habitually lodging all or part
of their taxes.
c. w. Hay, r. NJ Lord and John
York in report they prepared after
securing information from the counties
in the state where the "honor sys-
tem' is in operation, declared that the
employment of that system was desir-
able because it was economical. eff
cient and placed assessments on an
equitable and just basis. The system
amounts in substance. they said, to
each taxpayer assessing himself through
flee. In Blaine county, where the sys
tenn has been used for several years,
there has been an annual saving Of
$4,000 in the assessors office, and
through publicity given certain tax
dodgers, the gain in one year reached
81. 500, they declared.
Peter Fake. FL. II. Rooney, r. Fl.
Wright, s. f. Hockerschmidt, II. Nors-
kog. Hay and York were named mem
bers of the committee that will confer
with County Assessor Harold NJ Mady
regarding the honor system with a
view to having it inaugurated at once.
A. FL. Gray, chairman of the meeting.
was authorized to name another com
mittee to meet with County Treasurer
Fred c. Andretta and discuss the pos
sibilty of having the treasurer mail out
with the tax statements list of all
other tax statements. which would dis
close, it was asserted. if any individual
lists had been juggled through the OPP
erations of the county board of equal
ization.

HAWAIIAN PRINCE
IN CONGRESS 20
YEARS, TO RETIRE
Will Not Be Candidate Again,
He Says; Works to Rehabil-
itate His People.

Honolulu, 7. H.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press The de-
cision of Prince Jonah Kuhio (Cupid)
Kalanianaole against being a candi-
date again for the position of Hawaiian
delegate to congress, after 20 years
consecutive service, will bring to an
end--ln so far as main land activities
annals of American politics.
Prince of the royal blood of Hawaii
educated abroad. attendant at the
native monarch's court, political
prisoner for one year following the
attempt to regain the throne for
Queen Liliuokalani after the republic of
Hawaii had been declared, and dele
gate from the islands to congress for
10 successive terms, the genial prince,
who has long been picturesque fig
ure at Washington has decided to
forsake the glamor of life at the ma
tional capital, in order that | may
best serve my own people," by serv-
ing 'on the Hawaiian homes commits
sion, established by congress in an
effort to rehabilitate the dying Ha-
waiian race.
The life of the prince has been re-
plete with incidents that breathe OF
the romance that tinges the shores of
his native isles. He was born in 1877
at Papaa. island of Kauai. His father
was the High Chief David Kahalepouli
Piikoi, descendant of the King Of
kausai, the last of the independent
monarchs, soon to be overcome by
Kamehameha the Great who CONSOLE
dated the islands into the kingdom Of
Hawaii and became it's first ruler
Prince kuhio's mother was the
Princess Kinoiki kehauGke, sister OF
Queen Kapiolani. the consort of King
kaIakaua. Kuhio's elder brother was
Prince David kawananakOa, who died
in San Francisco in 1908.
Kuhio and his brother were brought
up in the court of King kalakaua. the
'.merry monarch of Hawaii. Kuhio
attended school here and at st. Matt.
hew's college at San Mateo, Calf
Later he was student at the Roya
Agricultural school in England and
also took course at business col
lege in the United States.
Later he spent year IN Japan 81
the guest of the japanese government
King Kalakaua was credited with
secret desire that kuhio might MARI!
princess of Japan. which woulc
strengthen the poSltloH oI ine La
waiian monarch The desire. it held
came to naught. however.
While in prison he was secretly
engaged TO Elizabeth kakanu kalei-
wohi kaauwi. the present princess
who visited him in prison every day
and brought him food. About year
after his release, they were married
and toured the world for two years.
Now. with his 20 years of service II
congress behind him, with the first
Hawaiian settlers about to take VI
homesteads in accordance with the re
habiIitation act. the prince is living
quietly with the princess in his home
upon the site of Queen Liliuokalani't

against the shore scarcely 10 yards
from his windows.

ELLISON'S RECITAL
CAPTURES CROWD
Scotch Baritone and Assisting
Artist Appear at Grand
in Unique Program.

Glen Ellison. Scotch baritone, as
sisted by Alta Hill, pianist. Thursday
night gave the audience. which filled
every seat in the Grand opera house, a
musical program that will be long re-
m membered not only for the quality OF
VOICE and artistic ability displayed but
for the unique manner in which the
event was presented. Both Mr.. Eli
SON and Miss Hill possess charming
personalities and their program halich
lighter and therefore more popular
than the average musicai program
went over with an enthusiasm that IS
rare.
Mr.. Ellison's clear sweet baritone
,,-as entraucinp. his understanding of
emotional intensity was captivating
and his versatility was amazing. He
ranks as an artist, with the best that
Great Falls has heard this season.
hut he was able to do more than any
artist has done here this year--he sang
duets with himself. This almost I'M
nossible feat was made possible by the
nse of recreations Of his voice ON an
Edison phonograph which were play
ed during several OF his numbers.
One or two of Edisons tone tests,
bv which he compares the recoralng
of an artists voice or instrument with
that OF the work of the living artist
before ones eyes, have been heard III
this city before. but Ellison com
PARSONS of his living voice with his
voice re-created by the Edison differ
ed from former tone tests in that he
used catch. airs and songs that were
full of Scotch brogue and necessarily
more difficult to sing in unison and
carry the tempo and harmony perfectly
all the time. During these compari-
sons the audience could not detect the
slightest shade of difference between
the original voice and that re-created
by the Edison. He would stop occas-
ionally. permitting the phonograph to
do ali the singing and had it not been
for the fact that his lips We're not
moving and the volume of sound was
necessarily less, no one could have told
that he had stopped
Miss Hill compared her work at the
piano with Rachmaninoffs prelude
in c Sharp Minor" which was recorded
for the Edison by Rachmaninoff him
self. It was difficult to believe. when
Miss Hill paused for second that the
clear, full toned piano notes were com
ing from the phonograph and not the
piano.

business of the association since last
November, was placed on the grill again
and criticized as system that had IN
creased taxation and lowered the stand
ard of the rural schools. The associ-
alton passed a motion embOdying an
invitation to Miss Jane Keeney, county
superintendent, to appear at an early
meeting and explain the merits of the
county unit system.
When the discussion turned to the
suggestions made by the association
city expenditures. Mayor r. NJ. Ar
mour was assailed by several speakers
for his alleged failure to treat the
economy recommendations as import
ant to the welfare of the taxpayer.
The mayor turned down the associa-
tons committee on city affairs because
he believed it did not suggest any con-
crete IDEAS for cutting down expenses,
the meeting was told by II. Norskog.
The ways and means committee of the
city council. Norskog added, was will
ing to consider the taxpayers program,
but the members were prevented from
acting by the attitude of Mayor Ar
moHr.
Treated Lightly
Suggestions from the city council
Ludt tuE dSSpIldLlOA 0sE itS lIl1uCbNE
in obtaining volunteer judges for serv-
ice during the city elections were treat
lightly by the members, who voiced the
opinion that the city administration, by
it's failure to reduce expenses by the
cutting of salaries from top to bot
tom. was not entitled to consideration.
Had the city council shown disposi-
ton to make reductions in the sal
aries Of all officials, there would have
been a good response to the request
for volunteer judges, it was declared.
The association reaffirmed it's pre-
vious attitude of not fayoring the use
of the present county road fund in
building the proposed canyon cutoff
road on the route to Helena. Fl. W.
Brown of Cascade. when asked to pre-
sent the views of the residents Of his
district regarding this road, said that
the town of Cascade. contrary to the
usual belief. had assumed an indif-
ferent position in regard to the pro-
posed project.
