CURE FOR A SLIM PURSE.
Women Could Make II Good Living by
Acting Housekeepers.

Acting as HOusekeepers.
Women who have reached middle age
need not want for a home or remuner-
ative employment if they have i'm
proved the opportunities Of their young
er days. There is constant demand
for hOuSekeepers and those competent
can always earn remunerative salaries
or late years it has become more and
more the thing for wealthy folk to sur
render the management of their houses
wholly to salaried employees. Observe
the word "salaried" The rate of re-
muneration may be by the week, but
the amount is altogether too large to
be linked with the term wages" There
are housekeepers who work for $50 a
week, but they are few and unlucky.
The general rate below which it is not
dlgnified to go is $40. In many prl-
yate establishment the housekeeper is
paid much more literally For this
kind OF employment the woman who
has passed 40 is at premium for it
is inferred that she has rip, expert
ence. Below that age it would be diff
cult for woman to obtain situation
Of course it doesn't follow that any
woman of 40 really has the requisite
experience. but her years are in her
favor and if she be at all capable IT
need not take her long to become am
ply fitted for her duties. Chicago

At Hampton institute | presented
myself before the head teacher. Hav-
ing been so long without proper food,
bath and a change of clothing, I did
not make very favorable impress
sion upon her, and there were doubts
IN her mind as to the wisdom Of ad-
mlttlng me. Sne did not refuse,
neither did she decide in my favor,
and | continued to linger about, trying
to impress her ~i,h my wortliness. In
the meantime | saw he. admitting
other students. | felt that I could do
as we'll as they If l could only get a
chance. Finally it cane. After some
hours had passed the head teacher
said to me: The adjoining recitation
room needs sweeping. Take the
broom and sweep it."
Never did | receive an order with
more delight. ] knew that I could
sweep. l swept the room three times.
Then | busted it our times. Every
piece Of furniture was moved, and
every closet and corner in the room
was cleaned thoroughly. My future,
| felt, depended upon it. The teacher
was Yankee who knew just where
to look for dirt She inspected the
floor and closets, then took bar hand
kerchief and rubbed it on the wood
work and over the table and benches.
Not bit Of dirt. nor a particle Of
dust was there. Then she quietly re-

The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1901-12-07

The American ambassador remarked
at a banquet the other night that
many good ideas which had benefited
mankind had their origin on the other
side of the water, and if cleaning car
pets without either taking them up or
filling the surrounding atmosphere
with dust comes under the same cate
CORY, our American cousins have bene-
ited the human race once more. A
machine which deals with carpets in
this manner was used at the Empire
theater of varieties yesterday. Com
pressed air is used TO blow the dust out
of the carpet and the machine is so
contrved as :, imprisOn all the dust

were commenced to prevent the
money being paid back. This so
intimidated those who were disposed
to be fair that now they do not dare
to loan money to the city for fear of
costly litigation. Then when some
of the tax payers paid their taxes in
advance to help US, another iujunc-
ton was started to prevent credit be-
ing given them for what they had
advanced. Only the year before,
under the previous administration, the
banks loaned money to the city and
the land company paid taxes in ad-
vance under exactly similar circum-
stances. 30, consistency, thou art
jewell" but thou art an unknown
quantity in the treasure box of that
outfit. Government by injunction
was the order of the day. The Eve.
ming Telegram by its base insinua-
tions and wholesale charges of
crookedness, brought about the ap-
pointment of an investigation COM
mittee by the city council, and when
its manager was brought before the
committe to tell what ho knew, the
public learned, what many had pre-
viously suspected, that he diden't
know a thing. He is now post
master. The Evening Telegram
has not been allowed to get exor-
bitant bills from the city since this
administration can.e in and it is
getting hungry for its old hold. So
it keeps "knocking."
1t is openly stated on the streets
that the reason the land company is
not going to pay its taxes is because
it is "busted" If that is a fact, why
are they not honest enough to say so
instead of lying about their taxes,
assessments and the school and city
officers? l do not believe they are
"busted", but do believe that this
move is being made to wreck the
city's credit IN order to facilitate the
bont deal, and to obstruct city bus
ilIees and Inconvenience as much a.
possible the city employees and all
people doing business with the city,
thinking hat in this way they can
get rid of an administration that is
trying to make them pay their taxes.
The Increase in taxes is a direct re-
suit of the actions of the land comp.
any III the early days, in making ex
travagant and unnecessary improve
ments in their blooming swamp, so
they might sell their lots for ten
prices. They did not pay for those
things then, but had the city issue
bonds for them and they are now
coming due; the improvements are
wearing out and rotting out and
costly repairs are necessary. These
things mean higher taxes, and the
land company now seeks to dodge
its share and to throw the whole bur
den on "the little fellows.'
l say the land company and the
First National Bank shall pay their
taxes. What do you say?
Yours for the city's welfare,
f. $. Parker.

being voted down, Section four was
stricken out and Section three amended
to include the whole island of Oahu
in one county, with the county seat To-
Gated at Honolulu.
The county comprising the islands of
Maui, Molokai, Lanai and Kahoolawe
was changed in name to Liliuokalani
and the county comprising Hflo, Puma
and Kau to Kauikeouli
The bill was read without further
suggestions until Section seven. Chap
ter II, where provision for paying the
collector of taxes by the County Treas
urer was added. Section eight provid-
ing that the elected officers shall hold
office for two years or until successors
are elected and qualified. was amended
with an addition to read except that
the first officers elected under this act
shall serve until January. 1908"
Section six, Chapter III, relating to
the bond of the County Treasurer was
changed from six or more good and
sufficient securities in the sum of
$4,000 for each one thousand inhabitants
of the County" to two or more securi-
ties and S400 for each thousand in

straight and Kumalae thought $500 per
thousand would be enough.
Emmeluth raised the point that the
average taxes were eight dollars per
capita and that no business man would
allow any one to handle money in the
proportion of fifty cents to every eight
dollars.
Prendergast then amended his resolu-
ton to s400 per thousand as adopted.
This will let off the County Treasurer
of Kauikeouli county, comprising Hilo,
Puma. &c, where the taxes amount to
something like $125,0 annually, often
payable in large amounts at one time.

men.
Robertson tried hard in this section
and also in the section relating to the
Icounty clerks bonds, to secure the in
sertion of a sentence compelling sure
ties ''to own real estate over and above
all debts to twice the amount of the
bonds given but failed to do SO.
Makekau and Prendergast held an
uninterrupted duet concerning mo-
ton of Prendergasts to adjourn until
Monday and a recess until 1880 this
evening seemed for a time Imminent.
Speaker Akina came out fatty and said
he would not be down In the evening
and the House finally adjourned until
this morning.
Makekau and others seem to harbor
the idea that unless the House works,
no day holidays, Sundays. or any day
will be counted against them. Accord
| ing to Makekau, the House could law
| fully adjourn until after the middle OF
July and then take up its session with
out having lost days work.

The County bill and nothing but the
County bill was the order of yesterday,
will be the order of today, and at the
present rate of progress the order of the
day until the close of the session.
Over the first few sections the wrang-
ling was furious. Kumalae seemed to
have determined to stop the passage of
the bill In the morning he moved for
an indefinite postponement and in the
afternoon talked and baked at every
opportunity. The amendments were
suggested in every case by Enmeluth
and Robertson, although Wilcox the
silent, made a motion for the first time
since he has taken his seat.
The great trouble arose over the third
and fourth sections of Chapter l, relat-
ing to the division of Oahu into coun-
ties. The majority of the members
made no movement during the show
of hands, and were guilty of a breach
of etiquette, not often INDUCED IN py
similar bodies in the denial of an aye
and no vote The Republicans were
only able to raise five hands In favor
of the vote, and six being required the
motion was lost. Had Archie Gilhllan
been present the day would have been
saved but the honorable representative
absented himself the entire afternoon.
Apparently the Independents were not
eager to go on record as voting Tor
one county for Oahu.
( Paele introduced petition for the
adjustment of the post-mortem law
in the morning session and keliikoa
who can always be depended upon to
cheer up the House when occasion OF
fers. gave notice of the introduction of
bill to regulate the strength OF coffee
by degrees, a somewhat vague title.
He also gave notice of his intention to
bring in a bill to prevent any citizen
from holding more than two offices at
one time.
GilfIlan gave notice of an act to set
aside $4,000 for the use of Delegate Will
cox at Washington, the same to be used
as a sort of incidental expense fund.

ponement, but considerable argumenta-
ton was necessary before anything was
done in the matter. There was discus
sion as to reading the bill as a whole
and Hogs objected to its being read at
all by reason of the Hawaiian copies
being lacking.
Finally with the assistance of Speak
er Akina a motion was made and car
ried that the bill be considered by the
House in committee of the whole.
Dickey took the chair for the commit
tee. Many important and a few I'M
important amendments We're made and
carried.
Chapter 1 Section provides that the
Territory be divided into six counties,
which was amended by motion of Rob
ertson to read five, as a city govern
ment act was about to be passed for
Honolulu. Relying upon this probable
action the county of Honolulu clause
was stricken out.
The name of the county comprising
Kauai. Niihau and all other islands
situate within a limit of three nautical
miles from their shores, was changed
from Kauai to Lunalilo. and on Will
cox's motion the county seat removed
from Waimea to Lihue Section three
and four relating to the division of
Oahu into two counties raised the long
est arguments. Robertson strongly OBJ
jected to Makainai's motion to make
the whole Island of Oahu into the one
county of Kalakaua, with Honolulu as
a county seat. ITO make one county of
Oahu said Robertson, would make
Honolulu the whole county. Outer dis
tricts would have no show whatever.
The city would run the whole thing. 1t
would harm the country without bene-
fitting the town. We in Honolulu don't
want to be worried with country af-
fairs anyway"
Emmeluth concurred that 1t would be
a hardship to outside residents. NO
member" said Mr.. Emmeluth, has
right to stand between the rights of his
constituents and his own personal inter-
ests. Such a procedure inevitably
means no reelection. The people want
Oahu divided into two counties and !
move that section three and four stand
as printed.
Kumalae: at isn't in the Indepen-
dent platform and I don't see that the
people want it,
Emmeluth: Speak on your own plat
form. We have enough to do to carry
out our own platforms without worry
ing over others"
! Kumalae. who was elected on the Re
publican platform, said that he knew
that City Government was in the Re-
publican platform but they didn't mean
it. THE poor man has to pay taxes
and it's a shame; the rich man digs
down in his pocket for taxes and the
poor hustles around and puts it there
I second the motion of Representative
Makainai."
Robertson: Honolulu would look
well, being governed by three commits
sioners. County Government is for g
scattered population while municipal
ity has practically a legislature of its
own"
| Paele thought it would mean two
sherfffs. etc, and more expense for the
poor man.
