Note Shaving Washington.

There is 8 little more light on the bank de- falcations aud swindles that have startled Washington. The disclosures have shown how extensive has been the business of op- ] pressing clerks by the shaving of notes at 10 per cent. month. A local gossiper gives | this insight into thiR extraordinary busi- ness:
 ''Shaving notes is at the bottom of the whele business. When man can get 10 per cent. month, he can afford to pay a high rate for loans, and, if he confined himself to this business, there would be no danger of his failing. It is as sure as death and taxes. When a man once gets into the hands of g note shaver he finds it difficult to extricate himself. The note-broker is like the old man of the sea. You see it is just this way: Suppose man is hard up and needs money. He goes to one of these men and, of course, having no security to offer, he borrows on his personal note. He gives the broker 8 note for $1Oo and receives $90, the note being payable at the end of the month. When the note is due, the chances are that the man has not the money to pay the prin- clpal, and SO he simply pays $1O and reneWs the note for another month. The next month repeats the history of the last, and so 1t goes on, the clerk paying $120 year for
 
 ''I knew 8 broker" interrupted one of the group, ''who loaned clerk $1OO in 1874, and regularly, every month since, he has been paid $1O for the use of that money. He told me that he had two loans like that, and was well satisfied with the inv ,stment'' "But wby--" began the astonished re- porter.
 ''Why don't they pay the principal?" said the broker, anticipating the question s'Sim- ply because they can't. You might better ask why they don't refuse to pay the interest. Some of them do. There are few risks in this business. A note shaver somstimer falls in with a dead beat. But the high rate of interest which he gets out of the paying cus- toners makes up for such losses But you see there is security after all, provided the maker of the note is clerk in one of the de- partments. The clerk knows, and the broker knows, that when 8 complaint is made that clerk owes money the official at the head of the department either compels him to pay or discharges him. This is the reason men pay, month after month, an exorbitant rate of in terest. They are afraid of discharge"

The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1884-01-23
TIE PLATroRM of the Independent Part.

The PLATFORM of the Independent Party
at the coming election was clearly laid
down in the last issue of the GAZETTE.
Taken as whole it demands govern
ment through a Ministry in some accord
with the wishes and interests of the great
mass of wealth producers, who provide the
national treasury with It's funds, and who
amongst them include the whole number
of wage payers and wagetakers in the
country. That those primary functions
of a government be exercised, If not with
craftsmanship of high order, at least
with honesty and impartiality.
Taken in detail, our platform as set forth
last week demands:
First, that the Board of Health be so
constituted that its duties, the preserva
ton of the people from leprosy and other
contagious or infectious diseases, and
the sanitary condition oftowns, be its first
and only care, that tine machinery and
funds at its disposal be used. and used
effectually for these purposes, and for
no other-least of all for making polit
ical capital by wrong doing,
Secondly. that the public funds be eco
nomically administered We hope to see
WIZ Wal ~ Nblt
! large sums for the collection. from gen
ealogical books" of race without a writ
ten language. facts or fictions which may
remain unknown till the publication of "a
| book of the doingsn of the Board of Gen
ealogy of Hawaiian Chiefs whereas the
doings of the said Board are limited to the
| drawing the money voted. That votes of
thousands Of dollars for the purchase of
ordnance be refused. That it be taken for
granted that the new palace be at least
finished and furnished. and that no more
money be squandered or jobbed away
on this plea. That if money be granted
| for the Pail or other road or for the
water supply of Honolulu, some result
may be perceptible of more practical
benefit than the beggarly array of
empty pipes which at present
distigure Nuuanu valley, ostentatiously
proclaiming themselves too large and too
costly for usefulness That such embassies
as the late one to Japan. and the present
ones to Europe, Asia and the South Seas,
be henceforth rendered impossible. That
the Foreign Office be so administered as
to avoid the frequent collision with friendly
States which has been a prominent fea-
ture through the last two years. That
there be a real Minister of Finance. man
proved capable of performing the duties
of his Office by the experience of conduct
ing or sharing in the conduct of business
in the Kingdom, and not mere creature
to sign his name whenever and wherever
he may be hidden TO do so. That the au.
dit of public accounts be genuine and in
telligible. so that discrepancy of say
$4,000 be not passed over in silence. That
