ERROR OF A CLERK.
Has an Important Bearing on
the General Tax Law.

Lansing, Nov. 3.-In the engrossed
and enrolled copy of act 225, passed
by the last legislature, amending
the general tax law, was inserted by
the engrossing and enrolling clerk
The word mot" which was not in
the bill as it passed the house and
senate. The bill was signed by the
governor and filed with the secretary
of state, as required by the consti-
tuition. The Interpolation of the
word materially changes the mean,
ing of the act, and Atty. Gen. May
nard has been asked by Deputy
Auditor-General Wilkinson what
the effect of the error will be.
The law as engrossed and signed
provides that the delinquent tax
lands shall be offered for sale by the
county treasurer on the first Tues
day of May, and that such sale shall
mot be continued from day to
day, the word not having been. 'as be-
fore stated ,interpolated by the clerk.
Atty. Gen. Maynard says it is a
principle too clear for argument that
where a measure as presented to,
approved, signed and filed by the
governor in the Office of the secre-
tary of state is materially different
from the measure as passed by both
houses of the legislature, such
measure fails of passage and cannot
become law. The insertion of the
word mot is not deemed, however,
to affect a material change in the
law, the purpose of which was to
change the date of the tax sales from
the first Monday in December to the
first Tuesday in May The word in
serted was not necessary to express
the intention of the legislature. It's
use in the position it occupies rem
ders the section ambiguous and
1t is held that the word
is, therefore, mere surplusage, and
must be disregarded as being at
variance with and repugnant to the
clear and unmistakable intent OF the
Legislature.

Don't Trap Beaver.

1t may not be generally known in
this section that the last legislature
passed special act for the protec-
tion of that Industrious little animal,
the beaver, but such is the case.
According to the act, "any person
who shall hunt, trap, catch, kill or
destroy, or attempt to destroy by
any means whatever, any beaver in
this state until the 31st day of De-
cember, 1905, shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor and upon conviction
thereof be punished by fine of not
less than $40 nor more than $50, and
the costs of prosecution, or by inn
prisonment in the county jail not to
exceed 80 days, or both such fine
and Imprisonment in the discretion
of the court.

"The Chinook"

Don't fail to see this novel play,
which is a combination Of humor and
pathos, clean, witty and exceedingly
interesting, at the Opera House in
this city, this evening. Clara
Louise Thompson, a talented elocu-
zionist, will read the dialogue, as
suming the character of Chinook, "
written by Joe Blethen, while some
250 life-sized pictures of the persons
who posed for the piece are thrown
upon the screen. The pictures are
similar to those shown by the cine
matoscope and appear at the rate of
about four minute. This is new
and unique feature in the vast field
of entertainments. A person must
see "The Chinook " to understand it,
as 1t is difficult to describe. Tickets
25 and 30 cents. On sale at Harris

The Tax Title.

T. Ryan, of Saginaw, asks the fol-
lowing questions:
(D A person bought tax title on
my property since the new law took
effect. He paid S2 therefor. What
can he charge me for same accord
ing to law2
Ans. After he bought the tax
title he must serve Il personal notice
on you by the sheriff, announcing
the fact of his purchase, and the
amount paid After that notice is
served you have six month S time to
redeem your property by paying
him double the amount he paid, plus
the sheriff S fee that served the no.
ticc, plus 81 for each description of
property. If you do not settle on
these terms within the six months
after notification, you are then in
his hands and must make the best
terms you can.
(2) There are two mortgages on
the place. Is he obliged to notify
both parties as well rs myself, in
order to make his title good?
Ans. Yes, notice to you only
would simply cut off your own in
tercst. Theirs would be valid.
(3) What course must he pursue
to get possession of my property,
and after what length of time, if |
do not pay up?
Ans. He can apply Immediately
or at any time within five years
after the six months are up in which
he served notice on you, for writ
of assistance that will put him in
legal possession. Detroit Tribune.

Van Wyck, Tammany's Candi-
date, Elected Mayor of
Greater New York.
HOT FIGHT IN DETROIT.
Maybury Elected to Succeed
Himself as Mayor of
That City.

With those who are experts in the
Interpretation of political signs and
portents, the elections of off years
have only temporary significance,
and the Republicans have no cause
to regret the result of the cleo
tions held in the several states Tues
day. In spite of falling off in the
vote there were some substantial
gains. While VanWyck, the Tam
many candidate for mayor of Great
er New York, was elected on a vote
of 100000, the combined vote of
Tracy and Low, both Republicans,
amounted to 245, 600, with the George
vote of $1,000 and scattering of TO-
600, making another 5000 to add
to the majority against the success
full candidate. From this it will be
seen the responsibility of defeat
rests with those who caused di-
vision of Republican strength.
In Ohio Governor Bushnell is re-
elected by -, 600 majority with the
legislature safely Republican, which
insureS the reelection of the Re
publican chieftain, NJ. A. Hanna, as
United States senator.
The Republicans carry Iowa
against a complete fusion of all the
isms and parties in opposition to it.
1t was the state in which Organism
made grand stand play and lost by
over 10000. The victory under the
circumstances is a most significant
one as sounding the doom of free
silver in the northwest. 1t is es
pecially significant in view of the
result in South Dakota, where the
scale was completely turned from
Bryanism. Several judicial dis
tricts in the state that went for
Bryan last fall elected Republican
Judges Tuesday.
a conspicuous triumph is in Mary
land, where Baltimore city was car
ried and a Republican legislature
elected, which disposes of that great
Democratic apostle, Senator Cor
man.
The Republicans carried New Jer
sey which is "a most gratifying
triumph.
Pennsylvania as usual went strong
ly Republican, while Virginia, in
which state the Republicans failed
to organize, went Democratic.
Nebraska is believed to have gone
Democratic, but the Bryan ma
e cIf
ficantly reduced The Republicans
made no canvass in the state while
the opposition fused and put up
strong campaign.
Massachusetts elected the Repub-
lican ticket by s.. 900 majority.
The result in Ohio was visibly eff
fected by the action of the Republi-
in Cincinnati and Hamilton
county, by boiling the ticket as
blow to George Cox, an offensive
boss. There were factions in Cleve-
land Columbus, Toledo and Dayton,
as well, which teEHed TO reduce the
majority of one year ago.
On the whole the Republicans
have Just cause of congratulation in
the result.
Nothing the matter with Kansas.
The result of the district elections
throughout the state indicate that
the democratic-populist silver
prohibition forces were routed.
Many districts were secured by the
Republicans sufficient to indicate
that the entire state will be in Re-
publican hands in 1898.

OAHU SUGAR COMPANY
WORK ON EW PLANTATION WILL
NOT BE DELAYED.
Plows and Pumps Ordered by Mail
Yesterday - Satisfactory Arrange
I menst Made--Plantation All Right.

In the mail carried away by the
Peking was contained an order from
the Oahu Sugar Company for steam
plows and pumping plants. This is ad-
dressed to a large San Francisco frr',
which has instructions to rush the de-
livery of goods. Should it be impos-
sible for the California house to fur
nish the steam plows, the order will
be sent on to Scotland.
The court proceedings of yesterday
pertaining to part of the land which
will be taken up by the big plantation,
were more a matter of form. While
there is a dispute over a lease given On
the land, still it does not affect the
progress of the new plantation in the
least. AS pasturage lands the tract
in dispute will yield an annual renta!
of $4,000 for the next twelve years,
when Mr.. Lincoln McCandless' lease
expires. AS a sugar plantation the IN
come would be 100000.
Before the departure of the steamer
yesterday Mr.. .dcCandless agreed TO
compromise with the plantation COM
pany. A settlement was finally
reached which is perfectly satisfactory
to Mr.. McCandless.
"The lease of part of the Waipio
property to be occupied by the new
plantation has all been settled" said
Mr.. Dillingham; today. "At no time
during the time that the dispute over
the lease was in progress have the in
terests of the new plantation been
ieopardized. Those interested in the
disputed property, as well as the
court, we'll know that the earnings
of the land would be considerable in
creased as sugar plantation and that
the property would be greatly en-
hanced in value"

JAPANESE MAN Of WAR HAWAIIAN COFFEE TRADE DISCUSSION ON LABOR
HACKFELD d co. ARE ON THE
RIGHT TRACK.
Germans Make Good Citizens and Ex-
cellent Workers-Different Classes
of Labor in Hawai-Some Italians.

An animated and interesting discus
sion took place in a big down town
mercantile house this forenoon. For
once annexation was not the topic
under discussions; it was a discussion
of nationalities for plantation labor.
They can say all they want 10
about Europeans being good workers
in the sugar field" broke in a prom
inent sugar planter, 'but ! won't be-
lieve a word of it. l tell you no white
man will ever make success of it in
cane field. He feels that he is above
it and it behooves him not to be a sue
cess"
There was almost simultaneous re-
sponses to this argument from three
or four gentlemen in the group, but
gentleman who has greatly interest
ed himself in the undertaking of III.
Hackfeld g. Company in bringing Ger
mans and Austrans to this country,
secured the floor.
81 beg to differ with you on that
/ l.
mans as well as other nationalties of
the white race laboring on plantations.
Their work is excellent. In fact they
accomplish considerable more than
either the Chinese or Japanese.
"Aside from this, think of the other
things TO be taken into consideration.
Germans have the reputation. as l.
rule, of identifying themselves with
the best social and political interests
of the country. They are always found
to be loyal friends of a good govern
ment. A great good would surely come
about through the importation of
number of these people to Hawaii"
Then another Honoluluite spoke up.
"What l desire to know most is about
! these Austrians. The bringing in of
this nationality is an entirely new de-
parture for Hawaii. We have tired
| Norwegians, have got Scandinavians
and Swedes on Kauai, and nearly every
other nationality except Austrians and
Italians. | am told that the former
are good workers and make good cit
izens.
Then the conversation drifted to
Italians. The published interview of
Mr.. c. A. Spreckels on this labor was
referred to. One of the gentlemen was
in the Southern States recently and he
also gave particular attention to the
Italian free labor which is now pour
ing into that country. He endorsed
every thing which Mr.. Spreckels had
to say about these people and also
mentioned incidentally that cargo Of
Italians would be received by ,er-
tain plantation in this country

ONE TO BE STATIONED IN HOMO
LULU HARBOR.
Interview With Consul General Shima-
maru Regarding the Important Move
No Significance Attached.

There is coming to Hawaii enther in
February or March, a japanese man
of-war, which will be permanently sta
toned in the Honolulu harbor. This
information leaked out this morning
and is vouched for by excellent author
ity.
Mr.. III. Shimamaru, the Japanese
diplomatic agent and Consul General
was seen in his office at the japanese
consulate on Nuuanu avenue this
morning. He stated that he antici-
pated the arrival of war vessel here
within the next couple of months, but
denied that he had received any Of
fetal advices informing him just when
the ship would arrive.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-01-30

II have been told" continued the
anese man-of-war would be dispatched
to Hawaii. This information came
from headquarters in my country.
Now, just when the vessel will arrive
] an, unable to say.
13hs your Government any griev-
ances?"
"None whatever" was the prompt
reply.
"There is absolutely no significance
in the dispatching of war vessel to
Honolulu if such is the case, by the
japanese Government. When | left
Toxic in October of 1895 for Hawaii, L
was informed by the Minister of the
Navy that vessel would undoubtedly
be sent to this country in tn. near
future. There are now 10000 Japan
ese living in Hawaii. The Minister is
aware of the fact hat the Japanese
colony in Hawaii is the largest outside
of Japan in the Pacific Ocean and evil
IDENTIFY believes that the presence of a
war vessel in port would be pleasing
to the residents here"
The war vessels of Japan" con-
tinued Consul General Shimamaru,
"are now mostly all anchored in Yo-
kosaka, near Yokohama. This is the
largest of the seven naval stations in
Japan. The Minister of the Navy has
despatched number of the vessels
already. He is at present engaged in
sending out the remaining vessels to
the different countries for the year.
The Consul General expects to have
advices from his country touching on
this matter on the next steamer.
BY the Pel<ing the news of the con-
vening OF the Japanese Congress was
received. The Minister of Foreign At
fairs of that country has a bill before
that body asking for an appropriation
to establish a Japanese leg tion in Ha-
wai. If this bill should pass Congress
| Mr.. Shimamaru will be promoted from
his present position of Diplomatic
| Agent and Consul General to Minister
resident and Consul General.
