THE REGISTRATION ACT.

Some of the kind friends Of this paper
have seen fit to take our remarks upon
the Registration law as an attack upon
the law as a whole Such an interpre-
tation is to be expected from the kind
friends to whom we refer. This paper
has always supported the Registration
law. and will continue to support it I'M
til a fair trial has been given or better
method of attaining the same object is
evolved We do not, however, approve
of the general application of the thumb
mark, a feature that can be partially
eliminated without in any way destroy
ing the beneficial features of universal
registration. If. as one correspondent
has suggested, signature in plain
English script is substituted for the
thumb mark, the law will be quite as
effective and citizens of the country,
as well as those who come for a short
stay, will accept it with much better
grace.
Disagreeable though it may be to adj
nit the fact, experience has shown that
portions of our immigration law
amount to very little without some aux
Hilary measure. The Registration law
will help, if not completely, solve the
problem, and it is proper for those in
terested in the character of the people
who are to control the future destinies
of this nation to render all the assist
ance possible in the administration OF
this new measure. 1t is also quite as
important for the Mir. ster of the In
terror to exercise the vested authority
to make such changes in the regulations
as may seem necessary for the best in
| terests of the country. Possibly the
opposition to the thumb mark is the
result of foolish sentiment, but if such
is the case the foolish sentiment has
such a strong hold upon a large num-
Der of intelligent people that it de-
mands attention.
The law as it is enforced today stands
good chance of either becoming a
dead letter or being voted out of eX-
istence by the next Legislature. The
Minister of the Interior has it in his
power to make such changes as will
save the country from fierce criticism
and at the same time save the most eff
fectual and necessary features of the
law 1t is clearly evident that the men
who can read and write English are
not educated up to the thumb mark
standard, and it is useless to attempt to
enforce laws that are either above or
below the standard of the community
The best plan of action for Minister
King seems very DIain

kULA, MAUI.

Senator Baldwin, in his remarks upon
the necessity of a better road into the
KuIa region of Maui, painted a by no
means too brilliant picture of that dis
trict. Eight years ago a few scattered
houses, which could hardly be noticed,
and hardly any cultivation, were the
n-distinguishing features OF the dis
trict Today there is a continuous
tain side about three miles wide and
fifteen miles long, extending from Kau-
pulua to the borders of Uiupalakaa. In
this region are raised corn, potatoes.
beans, fruit and hay. 1t is also a great
place for pigs, the latter being fed on
corn and the fruit OF the prickly pear,
which abounds in the portion below the
corn and potato belt. The amount of
freight going from this region is we'll
known by those who have seen the boat
load after boat load taken to the Kinau
at Maizena, on both her up and her
down trips-for the produce is sent as
much to Hilo and the Kohala ports as
it is to Honolulu. A large quantity also
finds its way to market via Kahuhu.
The population of this district con-
sists chiefly of Portuguese, Chinese,
Japanese and sprinkling of Germans
and Norwegians They are a hard
working, industrious population, and
are bringing up healthy and industrious
children.
Not only are the road facilities not
sufficient for the district, but the schoSl
facilities are none too good At Kea-
lahou there is an overcrowded school
Of over 100, which has only accommo-
dations for some seventy-five or So
and there are at least fifty children in
the vicinity who cannot be taken into
school at all. There is also serious lack
of school accommodations at Keokea,
another growing center
The needs of such places should have
the careful consideration of the Legisla-
ture. The inhabitants have no time for
politics at present, as they are too bust
~ engaged in cultiyating their hold
ings and providing for the future. but
the day will come when they will have
men from among themselves who will
be able to talk for them. The popu!a-
ton which is quietly growing up in the
kula promises in time to be one of the
most independent on the group-a free,
wholesome, thrifty farming population,
than which there can be none better.
Each man works for himself and owns
no man as master.

Congressman Hall of Missouri, who
recently distinguished himself bv
throwing ink bottles at a fellow Con
gresham on account of differences that
arose in the committee room. has shown
that he is not without his good points.
Notwithstanding his fiery temper. Mr..
Hall has been known as a sound money
man, and as his chances for reelection
on sound money platform seemed de-
cidedly small, his political manager.
who advocated leaning to free silver.
telegraphed him: You can state that.
although these are not your views YOU
yield TO the wishes of your constitu-
ents." The Congressman, in a reply
that was more pointed than elegant.
stated that he would accept a sound
money platform or nothing. If he is de-
feated, Mr.. Hall will at least go on rec
ord as among the few American Con-
gressmen who will not change his prin-
ciples to suit the political occasion.
The United States can stand a good
many fiery-tempered Congressman if
they follow the Missouri mans example

tongues come under this head. a sound
pummeIing is about the only thing that
can reach a person given to rolling
choice bits Of gossip under his tongue.
The man who viii not risk his life, if
necessary, to protect the good name Of
a woman isn't fit TO live. On the other
hand, the individual who finds coca
sional amusement in spreading ques-
tionable stories about this or that
woman can b. taught lesson only by
personal treatment.
IN dealing with children, q good
spanking is often times a better moral
agent than all the arguments that can
be thought out. After all, some men are
only boys grown old, and the moral
agents have TO be selected accordingly

The legislators seem to be rather
thin-skinned criticism Of anything
done in either house calls forth a
saueaI. After all, legislators are but
men. They are apt, in other countries
and the press of those countries does
not hesitate to say SOTO make some
what holy show of themselves OF
course we would not for an instant say
that in this country either house could
make holy show of itself. Oh, no.
They are. in the words of Mark Antony,
'aH honorable men," They work for
the good of the community, not for
themselves. They have, none of them,
any private axes to grind, no bond
holders to protect, no rolling to be
done. If any paper has criticised them
it is really a shame. When you have
the assembled and choice wisdom of the
country working day and night for you,
it is outrageous either to criticise or to
poke fun at those brilliant lights that
compose the aggregate mass.

DIR. PLAYFAIR AGAIN.

An American exchange says that
when Mr.. Gladstone heard of the YER
dict against Dr. Playfair he sent let
ter of coincidence to the DOCTOR, eX-
pressing continued confidence in him,
and saying: you do not seem to have
done more or less than your duty >"
This seems to be case where the
Grand Old Man allowed friendship to
run away with his better judgment 1t
is strange indeed that a man of Glad
stones prominence should put himself
on record as in sympathy with one
who dealt lightly with the good name
of woman. If more men, and pos
sibly women, could be put through the
same mill as DR. Playfair. the world
scandal. The people of the Southern
States have come as near handling this
problem successfully as any people on
the globe. The man who casts a slur
upon the good name of a woman and
has no more proof to offer than that he
has heard so and So makes his state
ments at the risk of his life. Conse-
quently men and women select their
words with greater care when discus
sing the private character of an indi-
vidual.
On general principles we do not APP
prove state of society where pistols
and bullets play prominent part, but
there are cases that the law cannot
reach and wrnnos dnnn h1r ororririrn.

INCOME TAX TO-DAY.

It is generally stated that the income
tax bill which should come before the
House today will be considerably
amended by the committees report, or
rather we should say the committee
report will suggest amendments. The
limit of exemption, it is said, will be
$4,000. and the tax to be at the rate OF
one per cent The view taken by the
committee. if our information be cor
rect. is that it is but an experiment, and
that even at this rate 100000 of ad-
ditional revenue will be raised. The
view is a fair one and may be correct.
sFestina lente," make haste slowly, is
one of the pithiest expressions of the
many pithy expressions to be found in
the poems of Horace; but one may make
haste too slowly. The views of the com
mittee are evidently based upon cal
cuIation of sugar income of $6,000,00O.
The estimate of the income from all
sources in the Republic, made by this
journal, is very much larger
Even with a two thousand dollar ex
emption and a one per cent. rate, the
revenue from the income tax will ac-
eording to calculation, considerably ex-
ceed the amount of 100000. But this
paper sticks firmly to the six hundred
dollar exemption and belives Thorough
Iy in a progressive scale of taxation
On inquiry from several wealthy men
it has been gathered that they have no
objection to progressive tax. This &C
uuiescence may come from conviction
that the bill will never pass the Senate,
and therefore a cheap form of popa-
Iarity may be gained by favoring what
these gentlemen feel convinced will
never pass 1t is preferable to think
the contrary Though we are blessed in
these Islands with select cOterie OF
tax dodgers, yet we are still more
blessed in having remarkable num-
Der of honest gentlemen who freely say
that in the past they have not paid their
proper quota of taxes, simply because
the law did not exact them, but that
they were perfectly willing and anxious
10 make laws which should affect them
selves.
One warning we would give to the
Legislators. 1t is an undoubted prin-
ciple of inSome tax legislation that the
lower the rate of tax the lower ought
10 be the limit of exemption. If we are
to have as high limit of exemption as
two thousand dollars, then certainly |
the rate ought to be higher than one |
per cent Another thing they should |
take notice of is that such small rev.
enue as 100000 from this tax is not 60 |
ing 10 enable the Minister of Finance /
to take off direct taxes from the two
hundred dollars year man. If it is the
policy of this paper to advocate that |
just burdens should be laid on the
shoulders able to bear them, so much .
the more is it its policy to see that the I
heavy rate of five dollars per annum, /
or two and a half per cent, should be I
taken off the shoulders of those who.
receiving two hundred dollars per an
mum, and even less, have to pay that
exorbitant rate of taxes upon their tiny
incomes.
However, it is to be hoped that the
bill and its amendments will come up
