British Financiering.
Rradstreats,


British financiering is notable for Its
closeness, of which an illustration Is fur
nished in the budget statement made by
the chancellor Of the exchequer on Thurs
day. He estimated that the deficit would
amount to f31e. coo. which would be con-
verified into a surplus OF f1sl, 900 by the re-
imposing OF duty OF Cd. per gallon on
beer. The only other proposal was to abol-
ism the extra So. duty on spirits, which was
imposed last year. and which proved I'M
satisfactory. In regard to last years bud
get, the chancellor of the exchequer said
that there was surplus of f77e,O0n. in
stead OF the estimated surplus of fs9l .0O0
He added that the tea receipts were $500
and the tobacco receipts 900 above the
estimates Sir william Harcourt said
that the returns generally showed that
the condition OF the masses improved
slightly in 1894 There was a less sum paid
for consumable commodities imported.
The British national debt now amounts to
$500. 0O0ota. There has been a reduction or
n amounting to floo. 900. 900 In twenty years.
Evidently the more modern British imam
ciers have not been acting on the theory
that a national debt Is national blessing

An Efficient ONCE.
Olynpian.

piece Of work has been turned out OF
the state printing office which IS stand
ing monument TO the efficiency OF our state
officers. particularly in the Office of the
Secretary Of state and in the state print
ing Office.
The session laws OF the fourth legislative
Session have gone through the hands of
the state printing board, duplicates made
and prepared for the printer, have been
printed and bound and are now distributed
throughout the state as required by law.
The Oregon session laws went to the
printer the same day as the Washington
and are not yet completed. This fact
alone would not be worthy OF serious COM
ment. but when II is considered that
Washington had a sixty days session and
Oregon only forty days the difference in
the efficiency of the working forces of the
two states is plainly apparent.

THE TWO BOARDS.

The controversy between the school
board and the board OF health has arisen
through a conscientious intention 10 do
right Il will therefore be settled In a
manner becoming good citizens and gen.
tlemen.
The board OF health considered II the
duty OF that body to take summary steps
to avert the spread OF scarlet fever, which
is one of the most virulent enemies child
hood has In this part of the country.
Small pox and typhoid fever. usually the
terrors OF the unhealthy season, are not
feared by local physicians but scarlet
fever puts them on the alert. A very
serious responsibility rests upon the board
or health. and no delicacy on its part
In dealing with other interests would
be admitted by bereaved parents as an
excuse for falling to strictly enforce It's
authority. Perhaps the board OF health
should be the branch OF government
charged with the necessary power TO close
the schools in times of epidemic, but 1t
hardly seems as II the law warranted
such an assumption now. The charter re-
quires the health officer to report TO the
superintendent of schools and the super
intendent of the public library the names
and addresses OF persons suffering from
contagious or infectious diseases, and il
empowers those superintendent TO re-
fuse admission to public schools or Ii
brary of any member of a household so
afflicted. There the charter stops. II
does not seem to convey the power to
close either of these public institutions.
The school board is composed OF sensi-
bic men who would not willingly jeop-
ardize the health of several hundred chill
drsn: and we have no fear that IL they
became convinced by an increase in the
number OF cases, or even upon the repre-
sentation of the board of health that any
risk is being run. they will allow any
false notion OF dignity to stand In the
way.
Last evening Corporation Counsel Scott
rendered an opinion that the board OF
health has sufficient implied power under
the charter TO close the schools. and his
official opinion. sustained as il is by au-
thority, Is entitled to respect. He does
not, he admitsN take the position that
there is ANY legislative authority. ex-
pressly comforting upon the board the
power to prevent the use of school
building for school purposes in order TO
prevent the spread of contagious diseases.
but IL the disease is Of such an alarming
nature that IL Is liable to affect the pub
lie health. and the coming together of
the children In large numbers from the in
fected district may cause the disease TO
get beyond control and to spread to other
portions of the city. then ] do assume
that II Is a reasonable rule or reguIa-
ton for the board OF health to order the
school to be closed that such danger may
be avertea and thereby preserve the pub
lie lealth.'
In this view OF the case. and It certainly
ought to have recognition. the board of
health is right: and as the safer plan is
TO accept Mr.. SCOTS view. the school
board can. without loss of dignity. com
ply with the request OF the sanitary de-
partment

II sppears that sundry British residents
at Honolulu have claims against Presi-
dent Dole's government for damages TO
their persons or property received during
or since the revolution that overthrow the
monarchy. The British government is ex-
rected TO look after these claims. 1t does
not appear that any consular or other ofii-
Ger of Great Britain at Honolulu alleges
that an anront was put upon him, and in
this respect the case OF Hawaii would be
