There is one feature of the income
tax which we We're very sorry to see
held as invalid and that was the tax

there are in exis.ance in this country
the enormous sum of 81, 100, 900, 900 on
which the annual interest amounts to
SOS, ooO, 900. They are mainly held by
capitalists who live upon the interest
thus received and in no name a
ticipate in the productive power OF the
country except to eat its fruits. They
could easily have paid this tax and
never missed the money thus paid in.
The state of South Dakota today holds
"A large sum in bonds by the aid Of its
school money, but the tax had it been
held valid would not have applied in
that case. The decision OF the court
is an honest one and we believe the
constitutional impeachment to this
form Of tax. il there is one, should be
wiped out Of existence.

Death of Captain Mist.

The community was shocked this
morning by learning OF the sudden
death of an old and esteemed citizen.
Henry Wentworth Mist, a post cap
tain on the retired list of the Royal
Navy, expired at his residence on
Nuuanu street, at A o'clock this
morning, after few days Illness
The deceased was born on June 10,
1888, at Fulham, Middlesex, Eng
land, and served for a number of
years in the British navy.
About twenty years ago he retired
from active service and took up his
residence in the Hawaiian Islands.
He devoted his time here to journal
istic and literary work, and has, dur
ing his career, been connected with
the Saturday Press, the Hawaiian
Gazette, and the Advertiser. In
1887 he was appointed secretary to
the Foreign Office, position which
he held for several years. Captain
Mist was very prominent in social
circles, and was leading member
and churchwarden of st, Andrews
Cathedral. He was married to Miss
McKibben, a sister to the we'll
known physician of that name, who
survives him, and with three sons
and two daughters now. mourn their
loss.
The funeral will take place from
st. Andrews Cathedral tomorrow

THE SITUATION.

1t is very gratifying to be able
to write to our friends tomorrow
that the cholera epidemic is ended,
without having made more serious
ravages. The quarantine Of the
port has been raised and Homo
lulu is no longer an "infected''
port. Tourist travelling and the
former legitimate business is again
the order of the day and the
Paradise Of the Pacific can again
be looked upon as true Paradise.

Says she Rev. o. p. Emerson, edi-
tor of the Hawaiian Board of Mis-
sion's portion of the Friend:
"The Rev. S. Kali, after seven
months of service on the "reef," is
a free man. He was one of the
state prisoners who were sentenced
last February for completely in the
rebellion. He and forty-fve others
were lately pardoned by Preside t
Dole, and were released on the 9th
of September. His sentence was
Imprisonment for year with 500
fine. The fine and the last five
months of the sentence were com
muted.
When arrested Kali was pro.
prietor of Kahala, the place near
the beach where arms we're landed
and buried in the sand. He held the
place on rental as a fishing station, and
though it was not his regular resi-
dence, he had the misfortune of being
there the night when the arms Uere
funded he aus thus found to b. In
collusion aOith the rebels.
He Was also knoDn TO be an ardent
supporter of the royalist cause. Such
facts secured has arrest and conviction
He was the only native clergyman
who was implicated in the rebellion.
Mr.. Kali bears testimony to the
conslderate treatment he received at
the hands of Jailor Low. He affirms
that while prisoner he had good
food and a clean bed, and that he
was not over worked as one of the
road gang.
He is man of fine physical pre-
sence, being five feet ten inches
high, (the height which would pass
him on our police rol), and weigh
ing over 205 pounds. He is in rug
ged health and his muscles are
are tough. This he says is due to
the training he received on the road
as member of the "chain gang"
The Rev. Kali is in good spirits
and is eager to avail himself of any
opportunity to work. He has some
knowledge of carpentry and can do a
plain job we'll. Till he has secured
a parish we commend him to any
who can give employment"
The italics are ours. Such we're
the facts that sent men to Jail dur
ing the rebellion, or riot, or "late
disturbance" or whatever you call
it. On no better grounds are men
still in Jail to-day. The confession
OF the Rev. o. p. is welcome. But
see to what he dooms his fellow
clergyman-the police force-ol
plain carpentry. How the cloth
love one another.

most serious manner during
the late epidemic of what vital
Importance pure water is to all
human beings. While our me-
dical men have differed in Opt
Mon in regard to the nature
and treatment of the epidemic
which now fortunately is ended,
there has only been one opinion
in regard to the imperative
necessity Of having an am
pie supply of pure water
for all purposes. In Homo
lulu the water. supply is now
plentiful both for drinking pur-
poses and for irrigation. The
same cannot be said for the
country districts. In many
places it is necessary for the in
habitants to carefully save rain
water in tanks especially where
artesian wells are impossible.
1t has been a great help to
people living in the country
that we have introduced the
celebrated Aermotor in these
islands. Many people have
availed themselves of the golden
opportunity. to purchase one of
our galvanized Aermotors, and
they have in all instances ex-
pressed themselves as highly
satisfied with the bargain.
The Aermotor is especially
appreciated because it runs in
the lightest wind. Being geared
back three to one, it starts with
only a third of the load that the
ordinary mill has to contend
with. This enables it to start
and run in a zephyr so light
that all competitors stand idly
by. Again, it's lightweight and
perfect bearing enable it to face
up to and get the full benefit of
the breeze. The wheel is so
light and its efficiency so great
that it is an absolute calm in
deed which induces it to stand
still.
The lightweight of the Aer-
motor is a strong point in its
favor. The weight affects the
cost of transportation; the ease
Of handling and erection; the
facility of turning on the tower
to face the wind for work; the
regulation for safety in high
wind; the recovery of working
position when danger is past;
the sagging of the tower out Of
shape; the vibration and break
ing of the tower in storm.
and consequently the weight,
strength and cost of a tower and
foundations. The Aermotor
only weighs about two-ffths as
much as the other mills which
do the same work. The great
disparity in weight is in part
made possible by the use of
steel, malleable iron, and the
very best materials throughout,
and explains why so excellent a
piece Of work can be turned out
at so low price.
We invite farmers and others
who have use for an Aermotor

In another column we reprint
Minister W. r. Castles interview
with the representative OF the N. Y.
Sun on Hawaii's relations with Japan
aud the latter's attitude to it. 1t is
no doubt within the memory of our
readers how, in Consul General
Fujii's time, Minister Thurston had
to be called over the Goals at the re-
quest of the japanese Government
for indiscreet utterances in the same
line. The Haw allan Provisional
Government made an explanation
lame, it is true = that Minister
Thurston's utterances we're not Off
cial and were only to be understood
in Pickwickian sense. How will
their reduplication by Minister
Castle be regarded? In the same
interview he is reported as saying:
"Of the S35,OOO,OOO invested in
plant ations and other property by
outsiders, S26,000,000 is controlled
oy he Amerlcan,. He pointed to
the fact that the officers of the
Government are all of American
parentage or born in this country
Their education is that of Ameri-
cans, and their method of living
and working also American" x
"Mr. Castle is very cautious in dis
cussing Hawaiian affairs, especially
in view of the trouble his predeces-
sor got in through what Secretary
Gresham alleged was a tendency
to discuss too freely the relations
between Hawaii and the United
States"

That is, as far as our climate
and sanitary conditions are con-
cerned. In our domestic relations
we regret to state that things
dou't look very roseate. There is
no peace in the Republic of Ha-
waii. Unrest, mistrust, and dis
satisfaction, are the leading features
of our public life. The oligarchy,
which has usurped the govern
ment, is still like the man who
got hold of the bear and didn't
dare to let go the hold. The
native Hawaiians retain their sulky
and hostile attitude, and in spite
of certain half-hearted advances by
the government, reconciliation
seems to be impossible until they
go the whole way.
The merchants are suffering under
the hard times, and the cholera
and oft-repeated filibuster scares
have materially assisted in bring
ing the country to the verge of
bankruptcy. The treasury is vir-
tually empty. 1t was necessary
for Minister Damon on the last
payday to advance $4,000 out of
his own pocket to pay salaries.
That performance will probably
be repeated on the next payday
and on every subsequent one.
The money so advanced is to be
repaid as soon as the taxes can be
collected. But every cent of these
taxes has been prescribed" by
the legislature for some specific
purpose. When Mr.. Damon takes
his whack out of them, the treas
ury will again be reduced to its
present circumstances and we will

Hair dressing rooms are very numerous, and well patronized at the time of our visit.

MIR BARrRAM's EUROPEAN TouR.

r. $. Bartram of New York, a New town boy, is to conduct second select midsummer vacation party through Europe. Newtown friends have receiv- ed his handsome prospectus, a hand somely printed pamphlet of 40 pages. Mir Bartram has outlined three magnifi- cent round tours, arranged separately and conjointly, taking in England, FraDce,y Switzerland, Italy, Germany and Belgium. Those who joined Mir Bartram's party, last season, spoke of MT Bartram's courtesy and ability as a manager. B. $. Johnson, the famous gold pen manufacturer of New York, wrote MT Bartram as follows :ssTo cross the great whale pond on superb ocean steamer, to have one's passage prepaid, baggage attended to, and all necessary arrangements made for one's comfort, to be cared for continually, to be taken by stages. carriages, railroads, water con.
 veyances, to see all the sights and to listen to historic descriptions of each as one is transported through those ceun- tries of Scotland, England, France, Switzerland. Germany, Belgium and
 Holland, makes upon ones memory a
 never to- be forgotten impression. I am glad went w-oa your delightful party of 24 last summer. You did more for the pleasure and comfort of . the pill grims than you agreed to do, and if you organize another party for the Old World 1 hope I can be one of them.' Anyone desiring information as to this town can address MT Bartram at 126 William street, New York.
