To-day the famous speech of Hon.
j. f, Stallings, Of Alabama, in the
House of Representatives, is con-
cluded. 1t has been read, as antici-
pated, with the deepest interest by
many who have hitherto been gross
ly misinformed by the Annexation
journals Of the true facts OF the
revolutionary acts OF the Provisional
Government. AS this is to be a
Campaign OF education," THE INDE-
PENDENT will from time to time-in
order to give correct information to
new arrivals, aud to refresh the
memories OF those who were here
before the Stevens-Smith, Wiltze-
Thurston-Hyde combination stole
the country from tho Hawaiians to
the eternal disgrace of the United
States = publish other pertinent
matter from official records. From
these publications it will be seen
that the supporters Of the Republic
OF Hawaii are in woeful minority,
and that the Government has no
right except that OF might to make
a,transfer of Hawaii to the United
States. A practical endeavor in this
line might lead to complications at
present barely to be hinted at.

the amount CT liquor sold, the rate of
actual consumption is difficult to get
at; but it IS known that public houses
that three years ago used ten dozen
bottles of absinthe- a year, now sell
from 300 to 800 dozen The poison
Francois" is no longer the slight mo-
nopoly of the few French cafes, but is
dispensed by the wholesale to English
men and in their own exclusive public
houses.
There has been for. some years past a
steady increase in the demand for
absjntha in America. The quantity
consumed ON this side of the Atlantic is
not so great as in England or France,
but the taste for the liquor grows
SO steadily that it is probable that a
liking for it has come to stay. Absinthe
seems to appeal to the nervous Ameri-
can temperament
The greater part of the a.bsinthe i'm
ported is consumed in New York City.
1t is almost unknown outside of the
large cities. Absinthe found its way
to other cities by way Of New York.
1t was drunk for years in the French
section before there was any demand
for it. AT present it is used as an APP
petizer in the form of a drip" or in
cocktail by drinking men. All the
fashionable saloons keep it and use it
constantly.
A careful canvass made by a repor
ter shows that at present there are
about $4,000 cases of aibsinthe consumed
in New York every year. Many brands
of wine are imported in much larger
quantities. but when the nature of
the liquid is considered, this quantity is
alarmingly great. One of the largest
American importers of absinthe told
the reporter last week that the alb
sinthe habit was getting to be quite
common among clubmen and men of
fashion. Many families, he said, bring
the absinthe habit back with them
from Europe, just as they do an Eng
lfsh accent or French shrug.
Absinthe is used incidentally and
when prescribed by a physician is a
very remarkable medical agent. The
effect of absintfe is at first quite
wholesome. It acts as a tonic when
taken in small doses and stimulates
the digestive organs. But the habit,
when once acquired, is almost impoSSi-
bic TO break. The victim Graves larger
quantities. Heavy ajbsinthe drinkers
seldom live more than a few years
after the taste has been acquired. The
summer roof gardens have increased
the demand for absinthe considerably
during the past few years. Absinthe is
used as an ingredient in several forms
of mixed drinks. When Skilfully mixed
with other liquors it is very palata-

EQUALIZING TAXES.
THE BOARD REMAINED IN SESSION
ALL DAY.
County Attorney Whittemore Holds
That Mortgages Held By Nom
Residents Must Be Taxed-Com-
plants Acted on Yesterday.

Evidently the carnival did not pre-
sent strong attractions to the county
commissioners, as they continued in
session equalizing taxes all day yester-
day. There was a decided falling off in
the number of complaints, however,
and many Of those acred upon were
such as had been received by mail.
The attorney, while not having for
malIy rendered his opinion, has decided
that all mortgag es held by non-resi
dents must be taxed. In so deciding
it is thought the matter would at once
be brought into the courts and tested,
thus clearing away all doubt which
now exists in the mind of Mr.. White
more as well as the commissioners.
Taxes on property belonging to indi-
gents were abated as follows:
P. M. Hillstead, $40; Sarah j. Will
Hams. So Ellen Walsh, $40: Mrs. l.. A.
Scoville, abated all; Jane Wheatley, So;
Mary Elder, So; Adelaide Ridges, $3.50;
John L. Annakin, So; c. Larson, $40;
Maria Stevens $40; L. Brown, $40; V.
Il. CroXall, $40.
The other complaints acted upon
were the following:
A H Raleigh, mortgages aggregat-
ing $4,000 reduced 1882.
5. Helm, personal property valued at
$165 struck off and tax abated $40.
Mrs. Drage, Improvements valued at
$1,000 reduced to $500.
Benner Y. Smith, personal property
of $1SS stricken off.
T. A. Davis, mortgage OF $525 abated
$500; another of $3.50 reduced $500.

sessed at $10O.

valued at $3.50 stricken off.
Annie Wilson, personal property val
ued at 1912 stricken off.
William F. Cation, Mortgages aggre-
eating $16,275 reduced $2,745.
Priscilla Murphy, Improvements val
ued at $500 reduced to $500.
Maria Stevens, mortgages amounting
to $4,000 stricken off, being Offset by
debt.
George A. Spur, mortgages aggre-
eating $1,000 stricken from rolls.
