TO C0NSt RIVE GOLD
IN THE ISLANDS
Plan to Keep the Government
Co lectIons In
Honolulu.

Hawaii's stock of gold coin Is grad !
ually being drained away. and unless
some measures are taken whereby the
constant shipping away Of bullion from
the Islands Is taken there will result
an embarrassing financial stringency
throughout the Islands. Since July 10th
there have been exports Of gold
amounting to SOS. 9Ss.s2. while the i'm
ports OF gold during the same period
have been practically nil.
The principal cause Of the constant
drainage has been the rule Of the
United states Government that all Gus
toms and Internal revenue receipts
must be sent to the States In bullion.
Since the Islands became a Territory
Collector General Stackable has sent 10
Washington the sum Of s215. 735. 20, Col
lector Frick OF the Internal Revenue
Office sent t23. 253 90. and Bishop a Co.
have sent the sum OF $4,000 TO the
States.
With no large shipments Of gold COM
ing and no likelihood OF there being any
importations large enough to maze %
for the drain which must constantly
be going on under the rules OF the Unit
ed States. the situation Is a serious oae
and the matter has been one which the
financiers OF the city have Deen study
ing for some time.
When G. NJ. Cooke went to the States
recently, one Of the purposes OF his trip
was TO make an effort 10 secure the
aid Of the Government at Washington
20 stop this constant drain Of our bill
lion. Ills plan was thoroughly dis
cusscd by the bankers and Government
officers here. Briefly 1t Is as follows:
He proposes 10 have a fund Of gold
placed on deposit In San Francisco
that viii be sufficient TO pay all that
may be due at any period from the
customs and Internal revenue offices
here TO the Government. Instead OF
sending the cash TO Washington. Col
iector Stackable would send his vouch-
ers TO the assistant treasury at San
francisco. and deposit the gold with
the banks here. There IL always a
large sum OF gold due local banks from
the banks In San Francisco for cargoes
that city. BY a simple method Of ex-
. change between the local banks and
those OF San Francisco the Government
could draw on the San Francisco banks.
and these banks could in turn draw on
the banks OF Honolulu. Thus the drain
age Of gold from the Islands could BE-
stopped almost entirely.
There II still a large sum Of gold In
circulation here. even considering the
constant exports. for $3.50. 900 In bullion
was brought to Honolulu ~ Colonel
Macfariane for the settleMent OF the
accounts OF the Postal Savings Bank
but this sum Is being gradually drawn
away. and there Is need for some suct
radical measures as are being .advo-
Gated.
Collector Stackable feels the strin
gency especially. for he has not yet re
: ceived any money from Washington foi
: the payment OF his employees. and hai
. had To borrow coin In order to pay
a portion OF the mems salaries. II Il
quite likely that he may have to borrow
q more money shortly. "a the men hav
n been paid only for the first month o
j.. their service. and no money has ye
come from Washington to pay them 10
q the month Of July.

in force which fix the times, places and
manner of holding elections and these
laws refer TO all elections mentioned in

The Bulletin reporter ran across the
fC flowing section G.. which he thought
SUI ported the Governors opinion:
"Section 62--That in order to DE qualified
to vote for Senators and for voting in all
other elections in the Territory of Ha-
wall, person must possess all the quail
fit tons and be subject to all the condi-
tons required by this Act of voters for
representatives.
Governor Dole was seen later on the
question that has been raised as to
whether a Delegate elected at the ensu-
ing Territorial elections would be for the
short closing term of the present Con-
gress, beginning the first Monday in De-
cember and ending on the 4th of March.
or for the new term of Congress. begin
ming at the latter date. Governor Dole
replied that he would look into the ques-
ticn. 1t could probably be decided by the
territorial Act and the Revised Statutes
of the United States relative to Terri
tories.
There are differences of opinion as &c
the law, but a number of attorneys coin
eide with Mr.. Poepoe.
