A GREAT FORTUNE.

The will of the late Mr. T. H. Davies
dIscl0ses the extent of the romantic
prosperity OF these Islands. In u
small country with the most limited
home market, and population to be
rcckoned only ut u handful, Mr.. Davies
acquired fortune which IL uncom-
mon even In England.
Less than 5000 out of the 10, 900. OO0
OF people In the United States have OBJ
talnod out Of the vast resources of that
country fortunes equal to IT,. by far
the largest part Of II was derived from
the bountics which the United States
granted to these Islands for political
ends which Mr.. Davies persistently
labOred to defeat. lie was sincerely
opposed to American domination here
and ut the same time rolled up u
great fortune out OF the plan for es
tablishlng that domination. II re.
minds rs Of the case OF the Mormons
who refused In 1867 to obey the Fed
eral authorities. An army OF 10000
men. under Gen. JOS. Johnson marched
across the desert to subdue them.
When II reached Salt Lake City II
found no armed opposition, but was
forced, being u thousand miles from
its base Of supplies, to purchase food
from the people II came to conquer.
Many hundreds OF Mormuns date their
prosperity from the arrival of that
army. Mr.. Davies made a fortune ont
OF his political enemy. According 10
the prevailing standards OF business
morals he was justified In doing so.
The United States granted It's bounty
lndlscrImlnately, and without rpstrlc-
ton on friend or enemy. II Its policy
had a weak point In II, II was not for
Mr. Davies to point II out. The gen
nral refusal OF all natlonalitics, incud-
Ing Americans, To advocate the nation
al policy restricting Chinese immigrn-
ton IL open to the same comment.
While the building up OF industries,
on the Mainland. by AsIatic labor was
forbidden, II was permitted ana en-
couragod here.
While Mr.. Davies was regarded ns
u kind man In social life. he does not
seem to have devoted any Of HIS great
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1898-09-16

Chamber Of Commerce. There have
often been periods when II was almos,
impossible to get freight In American
bottoms between New York and the
cities of the Pacific coast. There are
times when 1t Is mos, difficul, to get
freight at reasonable rates between
Galveston, New Orleans and New
York. The failure to obtain such
freight has Injured and even crippled
trade. Congress has never made any
provision for the relief OF trade under
such circumstances.

Fraudulent Representations

The, right to repudiate subscription to
? stock company which has been obtained
by misrepresentation, fraudulent or unin-
territorial, is universally conceded. No one
can be compelled to hold an interest in
corporation when that interest has
been obtained by misstatements But
IN order. to make such privi-
a movement toward reputation the mon moment mt
there is knowledge Of sufficient cause ex-
isting. 1t will not do for a subscriber to
stock, when he knows of fraud, to wait, and,
after making Intellectual attempts to unload
his liability upon others, to then enter a
protest: In so doing he would not only shut
himself out of any remedy by resembling,
but would himself become a party to the
fraud. One or the other horn of the dilemma
must be chosen. Either he must repudate
quickly, or stay in and take his chances.
What constitutes knowledge is always an
open question. Mere suspicion or rumor
cannot be so regarded, but subscriber to
stock must use ordinary means of inquiry
which are subject to his use in verifying
what comes to him as the truth.--Mining

The taxpayers of this city and county are
paying at the rate of $1,000 per day. Ot this
amount the county tax collector Is taking In
about $500 a day and the city tax collector
the remainder. In the collection of the

of articles of value taken. The thieves also
helped themselves to the deep-well pump

portion of the machinery belonging to a
honey extracting apparatus.
The fee book of the county recorders Of
flee is a pretty good indicator Of the finan-
cial condition of this people. Of the eight

mortgages, as against three mortgages re-
corded. Today, up to noon, ten papers were
placed on record, and of this number five
were deeds and three releases, while only
one new mortgage appears on the list.
The town OF Rincon was well represented
in the city today. The reason for the pres
