wore communicated to the rocky
heights of the surrounding amphl,
theatre producing representation OF
Hades that no art could hope TO rival.
All the foot of an Illuminated crag
that might well be taken for Proser-
nina's throne, there lay spread out
carpet-like area beautifully shaded
from maroon to gold and having a
slight slope. This was an overflow
from a reservoir of liquid fire under
the crag, and its surface was streaked
like that of rushing water and covered
with floating stars.
Occasionally a running eruption
took place as though some monster
were darting along under the waves
and dashing upwards crimson spray
in his course. And all this action was
accompanied by the roar of the fiery
waves and the deep thunder that rose
and fell with each of the central erup-
tions. >,
"As we were now pretty well
scorched by the heat and streaming
with perspiration, it was thought ad-
visable to beat retreat and regain
the upper platform. The guide led
the Way in scaling the crags, and the
other three members of the party fol-
lowed with intervals between them,
to guard against accidents from any
fragments of stone that might be dis
placed. On regaining the cliffs the
useful guide produced some refresh
ments from his satchel which were
very acceptable under the circum,
stances. The stay at the crater did
not seem long on account OF the ap7
sorbing nature of the wonderfui scene
under contemplation, but the watches
showed that it had extended over
three and a half hours. So the Ian
terms were lighted and we turned our
backs on what must surely be regarded
as the greatest natural wonder In the

NOTES.
The thermometer was standing at
6Omost of the time at Waimea, Ha-
waii, a height of about 200 feet above
sea level.
The new road between Waimea,
South Kohala, and Puuhue, in North
Kohala, twenty-five miles long, is a
well constructed one, and reflects
credit on the supervisor, Mr.. John II.
Coney.
At the Puuhue Ranch, an estate
managed by Mr.. Eben P. Low, the
Chief Justice left a shooting party
consisting of III. NJ. Whitney, Jr., G..
p. and S. G. Wilder. On the first day
they shot number of wild sheep and
forty-two plover. The party seemed
enthusiastic over their prospects,
plover being very abundant, and they
were promising themselves an excur-
sion to Mana to shoot wild boars and
lasso wild bulls.

Radical Tax Reform.

Mr.. EDITOR: No question of poll
/ tical science is SO perplexing as
/ that of equitable taxation. For
public uses there should be gener-
Gus expenditure; but who can set
+. the limit where true economy ends
and extravaganza begins? The
burden of taxation should not be
laid on one class to the advantage
Iof another, or one interest light
|ened to the detriment of others.
The great advantage of constitu-
|tional representative government
lis the opportunity for discussion
before the enactment of authorita-
tive legislation. A large number of
people are interested in advocating
Tor deprecating Henry Georges
idea of single tax, and that on
THE simple exchangeabIe value OF
land, exclusive of all Improvements
thereon. This is explained to mean
] giving up taxes on labor products,
that is, the diffusion of wealth. but
lin its place tax ownership in land,
1.-THE exclusive title to property
which shuts others out from the
Hand, which is the first prerequisite
for the production of wealth.
We hear much said of social
Regulations, that make possible a
condition of things in which
4 the poor grow poorer, and
Ethe rich, richer. This is not met
/ by showing that the average con-
EDITION of the community to day is
better by ten dollars than it was
some years ago. There is some
inequality in the legalized distribu
Ition Of wealth, when one man liz

fortune of one hundred and forty

The body of q newborn infant
was found floating near the schooner

authorities were informed of it,when

the Prison Physician, DIR. Peterson,
made an examination. The body
was enclosed in a fine pillow case
edged with lace, having outside OF

be the body of white child, but as il
was apparently in the water for q
couple of days, it is little difficult

than in the more crowded and re.

An interesting article by T. e.
3Shearman III the January Forum
calls renewed attention in a fore
lble style to the evil of indirect
Taxation as at the root of the
trouble. 1t is easy to see how this
tax upon what people spend, rather
than upon what they have, works
to the disadvantage of the
poor, while increasing dispro-
lportionately the wealth of
the rich. The vast majority
of any people must spend nearly
Ithree-fourths of what they receive,
But the few large property owners
do not spend one-tenth perhaps of
their income. 1t is evident, there
fore, that this system of taxing ex-
|penditures, rather than possessions,
steadily works against a man who
lis trying to amass a little property !;
but after he has passed a certain
point. it works In his favor. Sup
pose a man has acquired prop
|erty worth $1,000: his expenses
for self and family will be nearly
that amount, and the additional
yearly increase very small. Sup-|
pose he is worth a million, his ex-|
penses will be fifty thousands; butt
thelunexpended yearly increasment|
will be very large. Three-fourths|
|of our taxation is indirect, and)
nine -tenths of this indirect taxationI
lis paid by the poorer classes. The
escape of this annual increase of
the wealth of the richer classes
from direct taxation gives them AMI
additional advantage each year
equivalent to a most dispropor-
tionate gain in thirty years time
of the total amount of the wealth.

HOrner's Bank Bill, No. III.

Mr.. EDITOR. In my last L re-
ferred to our national debt and its
probable increase, also to the
amount of our yearly interest as
appropriated by our last Legisla-
ture, and to the absence of sink
ling fund for the repayment of
borrowed money. No plan that l
lam aware of was ever suggested
/ by any Minister or any other mem
Der of the Legislature for the pay
ment of our public debt. Some one
did ask (when large appropriations
were asked for): 4" Where are you
agolng to get the money!" But no
one asked, allow are you agoing to
repay the money, if you do bor-
row." The repayment of borrowed
money seems the most serious part
[of the whole transaction, and the
repayment of borrowed money is
what We will now consider. Al
most the only way of payment that
now fingers around the horizon of
our hopes is the development of
our natural resources to increase
our wealth, and the Bank of
Hawaii" The hope of ever being
able to pay our constantly increas-
ling debt and our current govern
|ment expenses-which are also in
|creasing-out of our present accu-
|mulated wealth by taxation is al
vain hope. We must increase the
wealth of the kingdom by improv-
ment and production, and other
sources of national income should
|be sought out.
Our present wealth and sources
|of income have been developed by|
years of mental and physical
struggle, and more wealth must be
created by Improvement and pro-
|duction than now exists in this
kingdom before we can even begin|
ito pay our present debt by taxa
ton, to say nothing about future
increase. Viewing it thus, wei
should endeavor to find some other
source of income; some way oil
payment other than by taxationE
alone, and create a sinking fund to|
pay the public debt, and thus keep
up the credit of the kingdom.
l must here claim that the "Bank|
of Hawaii would produce that
sinking fund and pay our present
debt without assistance; not byI
issuing money to pay it with, nor
by borrowing of depositors, but BY
its legitimate business. Intelligent,
thoughtful men must admit that al
Government bank organized for
business, as my bill provides, would
have yearly net income, and as
time rolls on comparatively large
income. This income could and
should be set apart as sinking
fund to pay the public debt.

The Statement of the Shooting
of the Late Mr.. Mafoe.


Mr.. EDITOR: In your issue o.
to-day, Jan. 9th, you publish 8
notice of the death of Rev. ]. II
zMahoe, a Hawaiian missionary
You speak kind words of his work
& but when you state, ga dispute
arose, and he was shot through the
arm by one of the savages," one
would naturally infer that the
shooting was occasioned by quar-
rel or dispute in which be was,
! more or less, himself engaged.
Allow me to correct this wrong
impression. Mr.. Mahoe was sent
to the Gilbert Islands in 1858. He
was located for two years on Apai-
ang. In 1860 he was removed, as
one of the pioneers, to the neigh
boring island of Tarawa. Here he
taught the savages for nearly eight
years. He was then re-stationed
at Apaiang, and while there war
broke out between the inhabitants
{ of these two islands. The Apaiang-
ers gained firm foothold on Ia
5rawa, and the Tarawa party came
down and took possession of the
deserted and undefended island of
! Apaiang. These savage hordes
3thronged the mission station for
weeks and months. The lives of
: the missionaries were constantly in
danger. Some of the houses were
repeatedly rifed. On the 18th of
March, 1869. Mr.. Mahoe had more
. or less information that 1t was the
purpose of the savages to take his
Fife that night. One of the party
had for some time protested to be
friendly to HIM, and was constant
1 ~ with him on the evening of that
. day. About midnight he suggested
! Ito Mr.. Mahoe that he remove his
lamp from the sitting room into the
bedroom, and that he remain in
! the dark that he might not be seen
! by those who wished to shoot him
! from outside. He removed the
Hight, and came back to the sitting
room. Missing the Gilbert Island
er, he went to the side of the door,
and peered out into the darkness.
calling to the Gilbert Islander.
The reply was a shot from this very
man, who stood but few feet from
! the house. The bullet passed
Through his body, near the right
shoulder, and struck the wall on
! the opposite side of the room, and
|rebounded. For four months Mr.
Mahoe was on his back. 1t was not
until October, 1870, that he was
liable to reach these islands and
secure medical treatment. Under
/ the patient care of Dr.Stanzenwald
and by the blessing of God, the
wound finally healed, but his arm
was useless.
The shooting was done in cold
blood, without any provocation|
Whatever. Let it ever be to the|
credit of Mr.. and Mrs. Mahoe that
they voluntarily stood nobly att
their post, humble, gentle and de-
|fenseless missionaries when they
might have been removed by|
the Morning Star to another
island for safety.
