MANDAMUS GRANTED

Ahe Minister of the Interior Without
Discretion to Limit the Number OF
saloon Llcenses-GiVen Until Mon
day to License the s.Kevstona,, mn
SHOW Cause Why He Should Not.
Judge Dole on Thursday rendered a
decision on the demurrer of L. A. Thurs
ton, Minister of the Interior. TO the nett
ton for mandamus of William R. Chiffon
and Henry Bradley, for compelling a
license to be issued to one of them. An
alternative writ of mandamus had been
issued. requiring the Minister to issue
the license or SHOW cause why he should
not do so. The defendant had demurred
TO the petition on the ground that the
$1,000 fee had not been paid nor the re-
qulslte approved bond furnished for the
license. But the petition alleged that
Tee and bond were rendered. which the
Court considers sufficient. A second
ground of the demurrer was that, under
our statute, the granting of a retail spirit
license IS entirely within the discretion
OF the Minister of the Interior. The pc
tltion alleged that the application for a
license was refused "sOlely on the ground
that the defendant has decided to issue
no more such licenses in Honolulu"
Upon examination of precedents, the
Court finds that, where discretion is ad-
mitted In an officer to issue similar Ii
censes, it is nowhere allowed that he
should exercise an arbitrary discretion or
one founded upon caprice. Authorities
are also cited in a case where the JUS
tees had refused license because the
applicant had not taken out spirit Ii
cense, and another, identical with the one
in consideration, where they had laid
down the general rule that they would
grant no more licenses in the locality.
lin such cases there is really no exer-
else of discretion at all, and it is very
much as If the license had been refused
because the applicant wore blue coat
or white hat"
The Court proceeds: "These authori-
ties, which appear to me to be based
upon sound legal principles, are clearly
opposed to the right of the Minister of
the Interior even admitting his discre-
ton to limit the number of retail spirit
licenses in Honolulu. That is a power
which belongs to the Legislature only.
Having reached these conclusions, it
is unnecessary for me at this stage of the
proceedings to decide whether or not the
wording of the statute gives the Minister
discretion in granting of the license in
question, for in either case L should re-
gard the allegations of the petition as
sufficient to make prima facie case.
"The demurreris therefore over-ruled,
and the defendant is allowed until Mon
day the 18th inst. at 10 a. m, to obey
the alternative writ issued herein"

General @. w. Ashford for respondent.

Prompt Collections an Element tt
Success.

Success.
The chiefest part of success in business
lies in the collection of bills, and while
there are men who are born collectors,
as men are born orators, writers, ETC.,
yet very few rules, religiously observed,
will, in my judgment, place the matter
of collections on proper basis for any
business. First, have your bills out on
time. No matter what may Interfere,
if it is your practice to collect monthly,
have your bills out and ready to distri-
butte the first, and not the second or
third, but the first, and not only on that
date, but early in the morning.
Make your calls, do not be importunate
nor changing on" but walk in, hand
out your bill as a matter of course, and
as if as a matter of course it would be
promptly paid. Make no apology, the
bill is due, the goods delivered or the
work done, and the amount due is justly
and fairly yours. If any of the items are
disputed and there is any reasonable
doubt, make your memorandum and bow
yourself out. Your first business is to
see that the bill is right, and having
satisfied yourself of that, return and
make your explanations.
When a man SAYS, " l will look 1t UP"
ask when you shall call again, and If he
sets day mark that down, and be GER
tain to be there on that day. If Thurs
day, don't go Friday, but Thursday. Be
polite, and never get angry. By being
on time with your bill, by calling on the
dav set, by being mildly but firmly per-
sistent, the question of collections be-
comes one that can be readily handled,
and that is the main feature of sue
cessful business. - Stroller.
