CLOSING QUOTATIONS.
a High Price for a Kiss.

kissing, as many people have found,
is comparatively costly amuSem ent;
but few people have lad to pay so highly
for an attempted kiss as an unluczy doe
tor OF the Madras civil service. This
gentleman was driving in dog cart with
another gentleman's wife, and so far for
got himself, under the influence of the
Iady's charms, as to ask her for kiss.
In some reprehensible cases of this sort
the indulgence has been taken first and
the permission asked afterwards; but we
are glad to know that the Madras civil
surgeon did not soar to such nights OF
WickednesS as that. At any rate, when
he asked leave to kiss her, the lady very
properly refused. Smitten by remorse,
the erring doctor wrote letter of apol-
ogy TO the wife; the wife laid the letter
before her husband: the husband laid
1t before the Madras Government;
and the Madras Government called on
the doctor 10 resign. All the clemency
they could show him was to allow him to
remain in the service few months
longer so as to qualify for the lowest
grade OF pension. Who shall say that
the Indian Government is not q paterual
ruler? Or that we do not govern the
licentious East on the principles of the
highest British morality? Still, it does
seem hard on a man to lose his profess
sion, prospects, and caI eer for the sake OF
a kiss, especially when he has not even
got the kiss. st. James Gazette.

COMPLAINT on vAonASr CHINESE
IN TOWN.
Desires OF the United Society Want
More Power-Pian to Import Coolies
From China.

A gentleman attached to one Of the
Cabinet offices has been approached by
representative of the United Chinese
Society with request for service in the
way of influence. President Goo Kim,
Secretary Chang Kim and their associ-
ates find the terms OF their charter
from their view point, too restrictive.
They wish to be vested, in some meas
ure, with the wide latitude OF power en-
loved by the autocratic Six Companie-
in the United States. That organization
assumes all the functions OF Government
over its adherents. The company here
wants to 20 beyond merely extending
charitable aid to its society members.
Primarily, they say, the demand upon
their treasury by INDECENT Chinese is
more than they can bear. The particular
thorn in the side of the United Chinese
Society, however, is the presence
in this city of several hundred
vagrant Chinese. These drones live
npon their friends and are a
burden upon the colony. They idle,
gamble and drink and encourage
vagrancy. There is plenty of work for
them. Every one could secure employ
ment upon a plantation. They simply
do not propose to toll. The police
authorities are well aware of the ex-
istence of this class, but did not think
it so numerous as stated by officers of
the Chinese soc ETY.. The loafers are
kept well i'm hand by the Marshal's de-
partment. Unfortunately for the ad.
ministration of law these offenders in
opium cases and vagrancy charges have
the protection of certain classes of Chi
nese, The Society intends to formally
appeal to the Government for authority
to force these Migrants to take service
upon plantations. The moment this
right is granted the Chinese quarter
will be cleared of the vagi ants.
On the heels of complaint by local
Chinese of the presence in the city of a
large number of Migrants of that race.
comes the report of plan to import
considerable number of Chinese cool
les for the plantations. There Is urgent
need for the labor for several reasons.
Japanese immigration has been arrested
for variety of causes. 1t is taken as
bad policy to overfill the country with
one nationality. Again the Japanese
for several months have been making
not little trouble with their organiza-
tions and meetings.
IL Is proposed Dy tne planters 10 DrlnR
the Chinese under the law of 1899,
which has so far been imperative. This
statute provides that not more than
5000 laborers shall be imported by leave
of its provisions. There shall be paid a
fee of S. for each man. The stay of a
coolie is to be limited and they are par
TALLY forbidden to engage in mercantile
pursuits or the trades. The planters are
already moving in the matter. The
transaction will be treated by the Gov
eminent with the idle factor as a bear
ing.

How rases We're Collected over FIn,
Wears Ago.


Wears Ago.
Now that the Tax Collector IL abroad
In the land IL will nos be untimely Ia
recall the ancient system Of internal
revenue. In the laws Of 1910, these were
the poll taxes: For man, 81; woman,
90 cents; boy, % cents; girl l2l cents.
The exempts were children under II and
feeble old men and women. Poll taxes
were to be paid in currency, except in
"the back part of the Islands, where
money was difficult to he obtained. "
Then arrowroot, sugar, cotton or nuts
would be expected.
The land-tax system would Halter
Chicago. These levies were to be paid
in swine, and the table of valuations
and assessments was
large farm. IL swine one fathom
long: smaller farm, "a swine three
cubils long; n very small farm a swine
one yard long, The money equivalents
were $40, $3.50 aud s.. Delinquents
simply forfeited their holdings On
plantations not subdivided into farms
the levies were: large plantation, two
fathom swine; smaller one. one fathom
swine: veiy small one, three cubit
swine. A fathom swine weighed 1888
pounds: three cubit swine, $50 pounds
and a yard swine, 1877 pounds. The
labor tax was three days month for
the King. Families having five or more
children paid no taxes whatever.
For the year lS4l it was decreed that
taxes might be paid in kukui nuts, ar
rowroot, turmeric or fish. The tax
laws announced by Kamehameha III.
were nearly all written by Boaz Ma
hume. Some of his interlopations are
quaint in expression, but decidedly
sound. He says; "And here is a word
of advice for industrious landholders,
tenants, landlords, sub-tenants, servants
of chiefs, persons having no land and
Migrants. According to this book it is
hest to have one and one only fixed
business, and to engage in it with high
hopes in Him who aids us by the rain
from Heaven"

Are now located corner Nuuanu and
Queen streets. in the warehouses re-
Gently occupied by j. +. Colburn. We
have been compelled TO make this
change on account Of our fast increasing
business. We now carry very large
stock, as we import by the ship load,
and do our own buying. We will still
keep our old place at Leleo. The Ha-
waiian bark Mauna Ala will be here
about December list, 1893, with another
full cargo of selected Hay and Grain for
us. We thank our friends for their
liberal patronage in the past three years
We hope by strict attention to the wants
of our patrons to merit a continuance
of the same. We will keep in stock the
VERY BEST to he had in our line, and at
PRICES AS CHEAP AS THE CHEAPEST.
We do not want the earth, only small
portion will do us. Give us trial and
we will treat you right. If you want
good fresh Hay and Grain ring up I2l
on both telephones.
