MAUI COFFEE LANDS.

Commissioned Marsden Returns
From Tour OF Investigation.
Commissioner Marsden returned from
Maui on the Claudine on Sunday where
he had gone to investigate coffee lands.
He found one section of the lands ad-
mirably adapted to the coffee industry
excepting that the large koa forest will
have to be cut down and the stumps
taken out. This is necessary from the
fact that coffee trees will not thrive in
the near vicinity of koa.
Mr. Marsden considers the conditions
there ripe for the coffee industry with
this exception and many persons are
taking advantage of the opportunity
offered and have begun clearing the
land of the koa and preparing the nur-
series. He does not consider that there
is any danger of materially reducing
the supply of koa as where the land has
been cleared thousands of young shoots
from three to nine inches in length
have sprung up and may be transplant
ted to any other section.
Mr.. Marsden's next trip will be in the
Waianae coffee belt, a locality in which
he has great hopes. but unfortunately
there is not sufficient available land in
a desirable locality. In some places at
Waianae trees, two years out of the
nursery have branches, not occasional
ones but plenty of them, containing
25O berries. AS the average is thou
sand berries to the pound of coffee the
trees there should yield on the average
three and one-half pounds.

A tax assessor has been quoted as
saying that the new tax law doubles
the taxes of the corporations, and pre-
sumably he refers to the sugar inter
ests. Taking this as basis, an evening
paper urges that a more conservative
method be used in ascertaining the
value of the taxable property of these
corporations. The question is raised
whether it is advisable, in view of the
confidence of local and foreign capital
in Hawaiian securities, to allow the
statement to go out that taxes have
been doubled at one fell swoop. This
of course is one way of looking at it;
but under the present law the state
ment cannot honestly be made that
taxation has been doubled. The rate of
taxation remains the same, and the
plan of the law passed by the last
Legislature was to get at the property
which for many years has practically
escaped. When the report of the Min
lister of Finance shows, as it does, that
individuals pay taxes on $9,226,776 and
corporations are taxed on property val
ued at $S,537 ,S39, and also that the cor
poration returns show an invested cap
ital of $27,OOO,OOO one doesn't have to
look very far to see one of two things:
Either the individual holders have
been grossly oyerburdened, or the cor
porations have been constantly escap-
ing the payment of their proper share
in the expense of carrying on the Gov
eminent. The methods pursued by the
tax department undoubtedly carry GU
the spirit of the law, which was and il
to put the corporation on par witt
the individual.

town are responsible for great deal
of it, and without that class of men in
the community Honolulu would be lit
tie better than Hilo.
Then there's a wharf. The merch-
ants and majority of the citizens have
been bowling about wharf for years,
and the legislature few months ago
appropriated $4,000 for the purpose.
This will come out of the loan fund.
a few days ago l learned that the town
leaders had agreed among themselves
not TO commence operations until the
wharfage is equal to 10 per cent on
$4,000 per annum. | inquired of Min
lister King if this was the case and he
told me he had never heard of it. At
present the wharfage pays 10 per cent
on $40 900, but the people who use it,
citizens or tourists, care nothing about
that. | doubt if fifth of the population
know what the receipts are. What they
want is accommodations. The Govern
ment sanctioned the appropriation, and
now 1 am told that the people who
howled loudest for it have decided to
wait until the receipts increase. This
is what Hilo calls progress, and these
are the people who are said to have
talked secession because they thought
they had not obtained their rights.
Some of the very purposes for which
they want home rule may be satisfied
as we'll under the existing laws as if
there was a change, and if they had
local self-government l question if the
moneyed men of the place would know
what to do with it..

AS the founders of Regatta Day, Rep
resentative Robertson and other mem
beers of the last Legislature deserve a
liberal reward for meritorious thought
fulness and an appreciation of what the
people needed TO break the monotony
of life. Since the sporting feature OF
the day has been such a success, we
would suggest that the members of the
Legislature as well as the private citi-
zens go to work and brace up the edu-
Gators of the land before the next
September holiday comes around
There is no reason in the world why
the Friday previous to the third Sat
urday in September should not be de-
voted to Arbor Day exercises in the
schools.

PRESENT PROPOSED.
Foreigners in Favor of Giving Piano
to the Boys of the Y. H. [.
Music and Good Work of the Organization
Appreciated Grand Concert al
the Presentation.

There were a large number OF for
eigners present at the entertainment of
the Young Hawaiians Institute in Fos-
ter Hall Friday night and the music
furnished by the boys was so much to
their taste that few of them thought
they should be given some token of the
appreciation of their good work.
Accordingly at the close of the enter
tainment an informal meeting was held
and others of the foreigners present
were spoken to about the matter. After
short deliberation it was decided that
no more acceptable or appropriate gift
than piano could be presented to the
boys. At once several people pledged
themselves to pay S. apiece toward the
good cause A self-appointed commit
tee set the ball rolling and got up the
following resolution which in a few
days time will be handed around to the
friends of the Y. H. 1. among the for
eigners of the city:
Whereas, the Hawaiian youth of this
city have established a Mutual Bene-
VIOLENT Society for Hawaiians-the first
ever organized in Hawaii nei''-which
they have during the past two years
conducted in a very creditable manner;
and as the management of their
business is based on the principles
which govern all others of foreign ORR
gin, which is the assured fact of the
permanency of their organization.
Therefore, we undersigned foreign
ers being interested in the cause OF
these young Hawaiians, namely, "The
improvement of the moral, the intel.
lectual and the social conditions of al
young Hawaiians; the comfort and re
lief of the sick and the encouragement
of economy by savings deeming it oul
duty to assist them, hereby subscribe
the respective sums set opposite oul
names for the purchase of piano tc
be presented to the Young Hawaiians
Institute as token of our aloha for tht
Hawaiians.
The boys of the Institute have hat
some inkling of what the foreigners
propose to do for them and they fee
more than gratified that their patien
work in the upbuilding of the organic
alton has been noticed and that by for
eigners.
When the piano is presented to tn,
boys it is very probable that they vii
give a concert on grander scale tina.
any that they have yet given.

The Princeton University faculty
have issued a pamphlet to show by
letters from successful graduates that
it is possible without humiliation or
loss of self respect" TO go through col
lege on about $500 a year. AS nearly
every one of the leading universities
of the United States could make the
same showing, there is no necessity
for the young man with plenty OF
pluck TO give up the idea of college
education simply because he is unfor-
tunate enough to the poor. The $3O0-a-
year man, although he cannot go into
society and must shun athletics TO a
great extent undoubtedly gets more
out of his studies than the man with
twice the amount at his disposal. He
loses much of the good fellowship
which make college memories bright
spots in mans career, but in the long
run. at the end of the race, when men
are measured by their intrinsic worth
and ability he, in ninety-nine cases of
every hundred, leads his fellow class
men. In his professional life he in
clines to the practical rather than the
theoretical. He has been through the
mill, knows what hard bone work is
and therefore is closer to actual con-
ditions of the common people. Money
has its power even in educational cir
cles, but fortunately there are shining
examples of men who have forged
ahead and won laurels that money
never could and never can buy.

THE DAY RECEIVED WITH FAVOR.

The most conservative advocate of
Regatta Day could not fail to pronounce
the first celebration of this new holiday
in Honolulu as anything but complete
success. From the tub race to the clos
ing inning of the base ball game in the
afternoon there was not an unpleasant
feature to mar the enjoyment of the
day for the public. Every event passed
off smoothly and, excepting one race in
which the boat clubs were interested,
with entire satisfaction to the partici-
pants. The exception to the rule was
a matter of minor Importance so far
as the general public is concerned, and
the boat clubs viii have plenty of OPP
portunity to get up extra enthusiasm
for the settlement of their differences
at some later day The program was a
good one, and through the excellent
work of the judges there were no I'M
necessary delays, so the crowd was
kept dmuSSu anu SHlAuSSu II Jill TIC bC-
ginning to the end.
The closing of the stores and general
suspension of business throughout the
city was the best assurance possible OF
the feeling of the business community
toward the action of the Legislature
by which an extra holiday was placed
ON the national calendar, and the
crowds at the boat houses and along
the water front left no question as tC
the interest the people of Honolulu
take in aquatic sports. In point of mum
bers perhaps the native population wa.
better represented than the foreigners
which may also be cited as another
item in favor of the new day." Tt
put the whole thing in nutshell, Sat
urday was a day which commemorate
nothing and which did not demand tina
people should put on their best bill

rhe New York word strikes a lace.

The New York World strikes face
tious vein in its discussion of the effect
of japanese competition upon the bicy-
Gle trade of the United States Com
menting upon the report that an order
has been received in Japan for one
hundred bicycles for the American
trade it says: we are a tolerably
honest people, with occasional lapses
in the matter of umbrellas, taxes and
trolley fares for children. We are also
a patriotic people, disposed to favor
those industries which give employ
ment to our fellow-citizens. But if the
japanese bicycle should underselI the
American machine, patriotism will give
way as completely as honesty gives way
at the sight of an umbrella rack or OF
the tax schedule. There is reason to
believe that in this country the desire
to possess a bicycle is stronger than the
desire to settle the silver question, and
if Japan begins her competition with
the offer of further reductions in the
cost of the bicycle, she assails us at
our very weakest point"
The World can afford to be facetious
while japanese bicycle competition is
a remote possibility, but the time may
come when the possibility will become
a horse of another color-and the
World will experience a sudden change
TO a serious vein.

Now that the reform school boys have
had demonstrated to them that insub-
ordination is no small offense, the best
thing the Board of Education can do
is TO rule that corporal punishment

possibility of abuse of power by hot.

out would eventually result in better
