INCREASE or VALUE,


Value is not always regulated by
quantity nor proportionate to size.
This is as true of land as of other
things. The value of city lots is
mainly measured by location. Two
lots of equal size, one with a street
frontage and the other in the back
slums, have widely different market
values. The great fire of April
18th has indirectly increased the
value of land in portions of the area
burnt, by being the means of open
ing new streets and widening old
ones, and thus in sense changing
the location Of properties. Loca-
tion has been changed in this sense,
that lots previously approachable
only through narrow lanes or private
right-of-ways now have street 'front.'
ages, and some Of them becoming
corner lots have double frontages.
Many lots that have been consider
ably lessened in size by the street.
widening and street-opening pro-
cesses have so appreciated in value
by the relative change of location,
that the present diminished size has
a greater market value than the pre-
vious full size, and advanced rents
are being offered and accepted. A
careful and intelligent consideration
of this fact should have due influ-
ence in the deliberations of the COM
missioners appointed to appraise
the value of property condemned
for the use of public streets. The
extension of limits within which only
tire-proof buildings are allowed has
also had the effect of increasing
values in the area beyond, whilst
probably producing the opposite
tendency for the time being within
the limits; for the reason that men
of small means-and most men re-
quiring sites in the burnt district
are men of small means--cannot
afford to erect fire-proof buildings,
and are therefore abandoning their
old business centre and vigorously
competing for lots where cheap
buildings are permissible.

vice, need water supply, need
proper streets and decent roads,
and must have them. And so long
as the general government is the
only government of the city that
government must furnish these
requisites and provide the funds.
If the city were created into a
municipality and given its own local
government for the management of
its own internal affairs, it would
bear the burden of its own needs
and improvements, as it should ;
and if it could not do better for it
self than is done for it by the gen.
eral government, it could hardly dc
worse.

the CITY SHOULD SUPPORT ITSELF.

So long as Honolulu is without its
own municipal government, so long
will there be an unfair and inequit-
able distribution Of the country's
revenue. 1t is not surprising that
the general public, who never
trouble themselves with questions of
political economy, do not clearly per-
ceive this fact; but it is surprising
that ministers and members of par
lament cannot see it at glance, or
seeing have not the honesty to con-
fess it. The whole is contained in
nutshell. Thus, the city has in
stitutions, public buildings, etc.,
such as the lunatic asylum, hospital,
government buildings, etc., which
belong as much to the country as to
the town, and are for the benefit of
the entire population. These are a
proper and just charge on the pub
lie revenues. But there are other
institutions, buildings, works, etc. >,
such as the fire department, police
court, street-making, etc., which
belong only to the town, are for its
special benefit, and in which the
country's interest is remote and in
direct. These are not u Just and
proper charge on the public reve-
nues. They should be maintained
at the expense of the city. And yet
they have been, for 10 these many
years, and still are, supported by
the national purse. Now, is it fail
that the poor fellow who isolates
himself for life time in the gulches
of Hawaii, and earns his bread by
the sweat of his brow, should have
his food and clothes and working
implements taxed for those who en-.
joy the luxury of the city, that they
may be protected from the ravages
of fire and drive fast horses in al
the glory of Solomon over macada.

THE TOBACCO CURE.
Something That Was Known Three
Hundred Years Ago.

Hundred Years Ago.
Ex-senator Clingman of North Carolina
is an enthusiast on the subject of the "to-
bacco curen for cancer, ulcers, bruises,
sprains, and inilammations Of the cuticle
generally, by the external application Of the
weed to the afflicted anatomy; and he has
made many converts to his faith by cures
which are claimed to have resulted directly
from the use of the nauseouS plant in the
manner suggested.
Instances of its remedial efficacy are in
deed recorded at very early p,riod in its
known history. The "Joyfvll Newes oyt
the Newe Found Worlde,n a black letter
publication Of 1871, contains the following
statement in substance as to the origin of
the use Of tobacco as cure for cancer, etc,
by which 1t will be seen that the ex-senator
from North Carolina has the record Of
ancient history to sustain him in the theory
that the external application of tobacco will
effect wonderful cures of various bodily
ailments.
Mr.. John Nicot, counsellor to the King of
England, was Ambassador to the Court Of
Portugal in the years l559-'G0 and 'Gl. One
day an officer of the realm presented Mr..
Nicot with an "hcrbe, strange plant
brought from Florida,n which he planted
exceedingly. One Of Ambassador Ncot's
pages was sorely afflicted with an aggra-
vated cancer on his cheek, (which had
| taken deep rootc at the gristles of the
nose,' and all prescribed remedies having
| failed Of relief, he applied some bruised
| leaves and tea made from the tobacco plant
and soon found himself maryelously eased.
| The attention Of the Ambassador was called
| to the matter and he gave the case his per-
sonal attention and watched the effect of
| the new medicine with close observation.
| He became so interested in the remedy that
| he invited the most celebrated physician in
| Portugal to witness the effect of the
| NicOtidHc when applied to the cancer on
| his pages face. At the end of ten days
| constant application Of tobacco the cancer
| was entirely eradicated; to all of which the
noted physician to the King of Portugal
| duly certified, and the use of "the strange
| plant from Florida as cure for cancer
| became famous at once. The virtue of the
| plant was widely cXtolled and the people
| began to name it the Ambassadors herbe. u
| Persons afflicted with HOii me tlRgerc don't
| touch me- ulcer, Kings evil, ringworme
| swellings, bruises, sprains, Nc,, applied the
| tobacco plant, and many remarkable cures
were reported. The wonderful remedy was
| subsequently, sent to the Court of France
and England by Mr.. Nicot, and many prom
inent persons were cured of their aillictlons
| by its use.
